House Sitting in Lake Desolation

“Angela is perfection! Not only was my house cleaner than I left it when we returned after a week, but she kept us connected with our pups’ goings on throughout our time away. We are so thankful that our babies were in the great care of Angela and it enabled us to have a stress free time away :) thank you!”

“Lydia is great. She is very professional. She met my dogs beforehand to make them feel comfortable and also took the time to learn their personalities. She spent the whole day with them which made them feel really wanted. We appreciated her spending so much time with them and caring for them!”

“Haley was a lovely sitter and house guest. She was on time, sent lots of updates and photos of Raven. Raven also has some very specific needs that Haley was able to accommodate. Haley was also very thoughtful with the space and even started the dishwasher and put her sheets/towels in the laundry machine. I would definitely book Haley again.”

About: I have always loved animals and I have my own as well. I take care of my senior pup along with caring for friends and families pets as well. Always a good time with extra love to give. Reliable and fun. I work five days a week at a marina however, I am always open at night and on my days off I am more than happy to care for your animals. To care for my own pet I take him out multiple times a day, I walk him, feed him, bathe him, and so much more but with other animals it varies, depending on the instructions given by the owner is what I will do along with extra love.

“She is the best with our pups! They adore and she takes really good care of them. Is very careful and attentive with our one dogs allergies, making sure he doesn’t eat his sisters food, which we are so greatful for!”

“Samantha was terrific! We are very fussy leaving our labrador, Paddington, with anyone. We met with her beforehand, and we instantly knew that everything would be fine. She is extremely reliable, kept in touch with us consistently, and we were very pleased with her stay. We would happily use her again.. We would recommend her to anybody!!”

“Nicole arranged a meet and greet with us and our pups before sitting for us. Our pups were very comfortable with her; instant bff status! She followed all our directions and kept me updated while we were away. All was well and pups were happy when we returned.”

About: My grandfather and mother both have an animal science background so I was raised with a knowledge of animals and how special they are from a very early age. Because of this, I care deeply for the well being of your pet and treat it as my own. I think dogs represent the best of human kind. I believe that animals, specifically dogs have an innate power to heal and connect that is awe-inspiring. This ability I witnessed first hand growing up with a golden retriever and a German shepherd, the later becoming a therapy dog and certified pet partner for my family. Lastly, I have taken care of dogs of all ages and breeds from 1 month to 16 years, from 15-130+lbs, and done some by house sitting, walking, and boarding. I love all dogs, but am partial to bigger ones because that it was I grew up with since age 10. I currently work full time so I am available after or before business hours during the weekdays (9am-5pm, Monday-Friday) or anytime on the weekends to walk, visit with or house/dog sit. I can commute from anywhere in the metro Portsmouth region so dog/house-sitting is something I can do any day, most weeks. I will do my best to make your dog feel like nothing has changed in their own space (your home). On walks and during play visits, I will make sure they are comfortable, constantly watching body language for anxiety, fear, and exhaustion, etc. and will let their behavior dictate the pace, duration, where we go, and when bathroom breaks are needed. I treat walk and play time as their time and I am just there to make sure they have the most enjoyable time possible, while protecting their safety and health.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pets—both my own and those of family, friends, and neighbors. From playful pups to senior pets, I’ve handled a variety of breeds, personalities, and special needs with patience and love. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I’m committed to making your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for—just like part of the family. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I currently do not work I am free. Tuesday through Friday anytime after 11 AM, if it’s too hot out, i will not walk your dog. You’re pet get my 100% attention and I will love and care for it like it’s my own.i will keep your pet on a leash when going out to the bathroom.

“Paul was wonderful! My pup enjoyed being with him while I was away. He was a great house guest and I would definitely use him again! Highly recommend.”

“Addy consistently went beyond expectation to take care of our dog while we were out of town. We got frequent updates and he settled right into his regular routine with her. She took wonderful care of our pet and our home and we will certainly plan to contact her again when needed.”

“Caitlynn spends quality time with our dogs and attends to them very closely. She follows their schedule and is committed to making sure they are safe and cared for each visit.”

“Candace was so amazing! I have never felt comfortable leaving my girl with anyone but my parents, this was my first time using a sitter. Everything went so well and my pup was so happy. Candace sent me pictures and videos throughout. I also have some outdoor cameras on my property so I can see the comings and goings. Candace spent so much time with my pup, that made me really happy because my biggest thing was I didn’t want her to be alone, and she wasn’t!”

About: Hello! I have a big heart and do my best to understand animals. Some say I have an animal magnetism. I've had meaningful relationships with animals most of my life. I used to walk dogs at Saratoga County Animal Shelter. Right now I own 4 cats who were feral and each found me in their own fascinating ways. I adore the unique personalities of each of my cats. Whenever friends or family ask me to check in on their pets I always make a point of spending quality time. I keep my service radius within a 15 minute drive for myself. I am able to travel with a charge of $15 per half hour. When one of my cats (all indoor) got out by mistake, I did everything to get him back: -Made signs and posted in my neighborhood - got the help of an animal intuitive - walked the woods and my area 3x a day -posted all over facebook including Steve Caporizzo’s lost pet connection. - borrowed a motion camera I could monitor from my phone anywhere. -set up a shelter outside one of my doors with food, blankets and water. The night he came back Tommy was circling my house for an hour and crying for the 3rd night in a row. I sat on the step of the door he initially got out of, talked sweetly to him, he got closer and closer until he threw his body down to the pavement and crawled his way to me. It was amazing how he returned. I had a cat live 20 years and my oldest right now is almost 15. With this 15 year old, I’ve become exceptional with giving special attention, food, grooming and medicine. I trim my cats claws. Thank you! About me: I am a creative type. I'm a working musician, Production Assistant of a local comic book and I’m also selling my artwork. I live in Greenfield Center with 4 cats I adore. I am integrating pet sitting in my life because I love animals and it'd be an awesome way to supplement my income. I’m just signing up with Rover as of late November 2023 and excited to offer exceptional care to animals I’m looking forward to meet. I am open to becoming a regular sitter and love the idea of helping humans with their animals on a more consistent basis. I’ve worked in TV/Film/Theater/Photography Production for decades. My most recent full time job was with a CBS/CW affiliate in evening tv news. I have 15 years experience in customer service and hospitality and over 20 in administration. I live in Greenfield Center, NY with reliable transportation. Safety, trust & environment: I love connecting with the animal and their personality while following through with your instructions. I always give them enough attention to make them feel loved, exercised or entertained. I am exceptionally trustworthy, responsible and transparent. I would send you photo or video updates if you wish.

“Missy and Jeremy are wonderful!! We receive pictures and an update every day; the sheets on the bed are washed and the bed is remade; towels are washed and folded; and, the house is in perfect order!! We never worry when they are our pet sitter.”
