Dog Sitting La Vernia

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and experienced dog mom who knows how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your pets. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including large and strong breeds, and I believe every pet deserves patience, affection, and care tailored to them. When your pet is with me, they’ll be treated like one of my own. I’m happy to follow their normal routine, whether that means walks and playtime, lots of snuggles, or simply keeping them company while you’re away. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual personality, comfort level, and needs rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. I also know how reassuring updates can be when you’re away from your furry family member, so you can expect plenty of communication, photos, and little updates along the way. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, loved, and getting plenty of attention. 🐾❤️ I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. This allows me to easily accommodate your pet’s usual routine, whether they need walks, meals, potty breaks, playtime, or just some extra company and cuddles. 🐾 I care for pets in my home and/or my client’s home by following their usual routines and providing attentive, personalized care. Depending on the service, this may include walks, meals, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, medication, grooming, and plenty of companionship and cuddles. I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, allowing me to accommodate each pet’s needs and routine. 🐾

“Thanks to a last minute booking Samantha accepted we were able to enjoy our trip away. She is very professional and accommodating. Sent photos and detailed updates about our dog Maisy. I was at peace knowing Maisy was cared for by such a nice person. We’re so happy to have found her! I would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs. Thank you Samantha ❤️”

I appreciate you very very much! Leo is also very thankful for the hugs and treats! I would definitely love to book you again in the near future. :)”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and can’t imagine life without them! I’ve had my own dog for 5 years now and there aren’t many days we don’t go on our daily walk. While living abroad, I also helped walk and dog sit for my neighbor whenever she was away. I treat every pup like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of love, care, and attention. Right now I have a very flexible schedule, which means I can easily fit in walks, drop-ins, or overnight care throughout the week. I love spending time outdoors and with dogs, so I make pet care a regular part of my day. As my schedule changes down the road, I’ll be sure to keep my availability up to date so you always know when I’m open for bookings. When I’m caring for pets in their own home, I always follow their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I make sure to respect your space and keep things just the way you like them. Whether it’s feeding, walks, or playtime, I stick to your pet’s normal schedule and give them plenty of attention and care while you’re away.

“Tim is amazing! I have 3 emotionally high maintenance dogs that wary of strangers & uncomfortable with big change. Tim had them completely won over in a very short period of time! We just returned home & I think they were disappointed it was us & not him! He’s professional & reliable. We will definitely use him again!”

About: I love dogs and have been around them for most of my life. I am a proud owner of a shiba inu(a true rascal) and I love him to death. Your dog will be in good hands with me. Word of caution: he/she will be spoiled with love! I currently work from home everyday of the week! When I am home, your dog(and cat) will have my full attention and be able to go on frequent walks. I have a fenced yard at home so your pet will have all the room to roam inside and outside. Your dog will have a darling companion(my shiba inu) to keep him/her active all day!

“Kaylee was phenomenal! It was a last minute booking but she jumped right in. She was able to meet the boys the day before and they absolutely adored her. She was very communicative, polite, and respectful. She always reached out if she had any questions and responded fast if we needed to get ahold of her. 10/10 recommend!”

About: I can't remember a time I didn't have a pet, since childhood. My childhood dog's name was Wallstreet and our cat was Clara. My dog Leia is my first dog as an independent adult. I've had her for 10 years. I started a cleaning business since 2019 and my clientele grew from word of mouth from people I would house sit and pet sit for since 2016. During that time I also cared for a woman with dementia for two years, checking on her twice a day, cleaning, going on outings, and giving meds. I still have my cleaning business and am looking for a new side hustle to supplement my income. I love animals and people and have a lot of free time, so this just made sense! I hope I can help spoil and love on your pets while you can't. I have a completely open and flexible schedule. The only things I do on a regular basis are some zoom calls at 7 pm early in the week and a couple outings/errands a week for an hour or two. In my home, dogs would be walked around the beautiful hills and scenery in my neighborhood. I don't have a fenced in yard. Cats and dogs would have full reign of the apartment. Animals are allowed on furniture. Actually, I am lucky they share the couch with me.

“Thank you Michelle! She sent some awesome pictures and it looked like our boy had a great time in the yard. We recommend her and like will book with her again soon”

About: I have years of experience between animals, livestock, babies, and senior care. I breed Australian shepherds and Japanese Akitas, and currently own chickens. I do own my own house and with a decent size fenced backyard. I’m available all day of the week. If I have to step out, I have cameras all over my house and around my house. I have a fenced yard, cameras all over the outside of my house and in the inside as well. There is always someone at my house.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I got my first cat at 9 years old. I adore the companionship and love animals give. Some of my best memories are centered around a fur baby and I’d love to make some memories with yours! I’m currently working full time but am able to check on during my lunch break and after work. My schedule on the weekends is very flexible and I’m typically available all day. Your pet will be my top priority when I am with them. I care for orher people's pets the same as I do mine because animals deserve love and safety. I will always listen to your instructions but I would love to give them treats, extra hugs, playtime and walks. I don’t mind changing litter boxes and I will always make sure their living area is kept clean and that they have enough food and water.

About: I treat every pet as an individual & take the time to learn their personality & needs. I love nature so going on daily walks is a must in my life style already. Im flexible & dependable and Im happy as I work from home currently fits naturally into my routine so they feel comfortable while you're away. Im attentive to their behavior and surroundings, and I never take their safety for granted. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, & the same love.

“This was my first time I used Rover for my dogs. I was extremely pleased with the care and communication that Jenika provided my girls while I was away for the holidays. She made the whole experience reassuringly being so far from home. My dogs seem to really love to see Jenika and she was really great with them and would send detailed visits and photos. I could see from my camera’s the girls were having a great time. I would definitely book with Jenika again or refer her.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs in every stage of life, from a 6-year-old rescue to puppies I raised and trained myself. My dogs are housebroken and crate trained, and I’m comfortable reinforcing structure and routines. I’ve also provided overnight care for large dogs with specific medication needs and frequent walk schedules, so I understand the importance of consistency and attention to detail. I’m patient, calm, and respectful of each dog’s personality. My goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m flexible and able to plan my day around scheduled walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I’m organized and punctual, so I make sure pets are fed, walked, and cared for on time, especially when they’re used to a consistent routine. Since I provide care in my client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication, crate use, and household rules. For walks and drop-ins, I prioritize leash safety, secure doors and gates, and make sure pets have fresh water and a calm environment before I leave. During overnight stays, I maintain their normal routine to reduce stress and keep them feeling safe while their owner is away.

“Luis was excellent! He took extra steps to make sure my boys were comfortable when there was fireworks going outside when he didn’t have to. Luis was professional and my boys seemed to really like him. I would 100% recommend him to anyone in need of his services!”

About: I love my dogs and I will love yours to!! Your family member will have a great place to stay, and somebody to play with. They will be well taken care of and have everything they will need, food, water, outside, pet scratches, and belly rubs. We will be taking walks in a lovely neighborhood and spend some time at the park. You may not want them to stay to long or they may not want to go home. I look forward to taking in your family members while you are out of town or taking care of business. Either way you can rest easy knowing your beloved animals are here with me and in a safe place, I will be more than happy to do so! Thank you for your time and hope I’m a good match for you and your fur babies. I currently have free time at my home so I would love to spend some time with a friendly pet. I am currently a stay at home mom. I like to give attention when attention is needed to pets. If they want to play I will play with them or if they need to go out to potty, I will take them out. Anything your pet needs I will be there.

About: I have trained my own dogs growing up, I love dogs with a passion & watch all my coworkers dogs when they go on vacation! I am a nurse, so I have an odd schedule. Not every week is the same days of work, but I am very flexible on my days off! I have my own 2 year old Goldendoodle who I take great care of! She gets fed twice a day, I take her on daily walks/runs, and we go to the park about 2-3x a week. I also always take her anywhere I can! She loves to go with me to get coffee and a pup cup. I respect all clients homes/pets as if they were my own. I love all animals so much and I want to take care of others!!!

“Alyssa does an amazing job! I have been using her for months. She stays overnight, helps clean litter boxes and house sits while you are gone!! She watches a variety of pets. She takes great care of senior pets that needs lots of love and senior needs. I highly recommend Alyssa for your pets!”

About: I’m a Certified Professional Dog Trainer with a lifelong passion for animals. I started working with them at age 12 through 4-H, where I learned hands-on animal care and training. Over the years, I’ve gained experience not only with dogs, but also with cats, rabbits, chickens, guinea pigs, and other small mammals. My first real job at 15 was as a dog groomer, and I later worked as a veterinary assistant before moving into professional dog training, something I’ve now been doing for more than 25 years. Since May 2011, I’ve fostered more than 200 dogs and puppies, and three of my current dogs are “foster fails” who never left. I currently share my home with five dogs, three cats, two pigs, and about 75 chickens, though don’t worry, the chickens and pigs don’t actually live inside! Pet care is woven into my daily life, both personally and professionally. As a Certified Professional Dog Trainer, I spend much of my week working hands-on with clients and their dogs, teaching good manners, healthy habits, and strong communication between pets and their families. At home, my own crew keeps me busy and happy, I care for five dogs, three cats, two pigs, and a large flock of chickens. Feeding, training, enrichment, and health check-ins are part of my regular routine, and I genuinely enjoy it. Animal care isn’t something I squeeze in; it’s part of who I am and how I live every day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine as closely as possible so their pets feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of bathroom breaks, enjoy playtime and enrichment, and receive any training or behavioral support the owner requests. I pay close attention to their individual personalities and needs, whether that’s extra exercise, quiet reassurance, or structured training practice. Because I’m a professional dog trainer, I naturally reinforce good manners and healthy habits during my visits. I also keep the home tidy, monitor the pets for any signs of stress or illness, and send regular updates so owners feel completely at ease while they’re away. My goal is always to make their pets feel cared for, safe, and loved, just like I do with my own animals at home.
