I don’t mind staying overnights in your home to make sure your fur babies feel safe and loved. I have a special love for senior dogs, I just had to say goodbye to my golden girl. I have the patience for puppies, seeing that I survived my corgi puppy. I have experience in administering meds, even getting the tough pills down. I will keep detailed notes on each dog and exactly what they need. I don’t take pet sitting lightly and I feel lucky to have gained pet parents’ trust when asked to watch their pets.

I will not be all routine and no play though. I’ll make sure to have fun interactive things to keeps the pets happy while tiring them out for a goodnight’s sleep.

“Daniel has been absolutely fantastic. He always responds promptly, and really loves the dogs. He is an incredibly NICE person, too! He has been visiting the dogs while their owner (my brother) was in the hospital. It was one less worry on my mind. I will use him again any time a sitter is necessary.”
About: I've been watching dogs, cats, birds, and scaly pet friends for over 10 years on Rover and otherwise. I have experience with elderly dogs and puppies, senior cats and kittens, you name it, I've probably seen it! I have traveled across the country while sitting for someone, no job is too big or small. If you're interested in any of my services I can provide references and information at any time, give me a call or shoot a text. I look forward to meeting you and your little sidekick! Currently working full time as a pet sitter. I'm very familiar with pets who need an extra special eye on their diets, walking routines and habits, and playtime. Walking during the summer can be hard on you and your pet, if your little companion needs a specially timed walk to avoid the brutal sun then I'm flexible and willing to learn their ways! If your pet has robust dietary needs or maybe you just like feeding them extra heartily and putting time and care into their diets then I'm no stranger to that!
About: I have over 30 years experience with all types of animals, but mostly birds, parrot's 🦜 mostly and dogs 🐕 and cats 😺 I train and raised them throughout the year's of my life.... professional training, Exercise lol love and patience , the desire to take care of animals in need, something I always wanted to do since a child, and watching programs like the discovery channel and national geographic made me want to experience working with wildlife and their well being We love animals, me and my peers,we were raised with pets all are lives and attended to them as well, always keeping fresh water, clean healthy environments for our pets, making sure they have the nutritional value in the food we feed them because fresh water and good diet can help while you are out walking and your dog for example uses the potty, and healthy diet makes it easier to pick up the mess, and reading and knowing about the particular breed you have, can make it a lot easier to raise your dog or cats 😺
“Aris looked after our 2 dogs & 2 cats for 8 days. She was consistent on her times visiting, walked, watered, fed and cared for our babies beyond our expectations! She truly loves what she does and it shows. Updates and pictures were provided to us daily & we came home to happy and healthy pets. HIGHLY recommend!”
About: I adopted a dog when I was 8, a pomeranian, took care of it and raised it since he was 1 month old. Now I don't have access to him since we moved out, someone else adopted him because we didn't have the ability to keep him. Them adopted other two puppies, huskies, the same story happened as we tend to move a lot. 1 year ago I adopted a frenchie and currently raising it, on a healthy 24 pounds and very active and energic, trying to work on his hyperactivity so I won't be able to take him with me if requested. I'm a Uber driver, so I would always be able to attend any reservations outside of this times: ●Monday to Friday 11:30am - 2:30 pm, 5:30pm - 6:30 pm. ●Weekends negotiable, standard would be 11 am to 3 pm. I feed mine twice a day, depending on activity of the day I might rise the amount he eats just a little to make up for it. Then daily training of 10- 30 minutes with split treats to not over feed.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for my own cats as well as other people’s pets. I love cats, dogs, and all kinds of animals and creatures!

About: I have always felt like pets are an extension of our family. & I have learned that every animal can server as a pet for someone out there. Thus, we should be equally as considerate with every animal as if it were our own pet. I have had pets all my life. Growing up I voluntarily took the role of caring of & looking out for our 2 dogs. This included bathing them weekly, regular daily walks, playtime & endless love! In addition, I volunteered at my local pet groomers shop as a pet sitter and would occasionally bathe a dog or two. On average I would care for 3-6 dogs a day. This gave a good understanding on some of the behaviors our furry animals have & how to address them! I currently have 2 dogs (mixed schnauzer & Shaggy Dog) & 2 cats (Tuxedo & Blue Point Siamese) & 2 small Parrots that I care for my mom sometimes! i am currently completely a few credits by taking some online courses. And to try to exercise regularly and play in a soccer league during the weekends! I am fully available for the most part & I am very flexible when scheduling. Since my cats are indoor cats, I keep the doors closed with the windows open & walk my dogs regularly. I occasionally will walk my cat at night.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Lakewood is $25
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lakewood
We first used Dolores's services a couple of years ago, but unfortunately, we missed the window to leave a review on Rover. We really regretted that because she absolutely deserved a wonderful five-star review even back then! So my husband and I were truly happy to have the opportunity to entrust our three cats to her care again. This is especially important to us because our cats are quite sensitive to stress, and their comfort and peace of mind mean everything to us. We were so happy to see that they remembered Dolores, weren't afraid of her, and felt comfortable around her. In fact, their bond with her seemed even stronger and more affectionate this time! Our situation is a little unusual, as one of our three cats has special needs and lives separately from the other two. This means caring for our cats requires extra attention and an individual approach. Dolores is extremely conscientious, responsible, and attentive in everything she does. But what means just as much to us is that she doesn't simply take care of the basic tasks — she genuinely spends time with each of our fur babies, respecting their different personalities and habits. It's clear that she truly enjoys being around them, and they respond to her with trust and affection. While we were away, Dolores sent us photos of our cats, shared sweet little stories about her interactions with them, and responded to our messages. This helped us not only know that our cats were doing well, but also see how comfortable and happy they were in her company. It meant so much to us, especially since we missed our fur babies terribly! When you have to leave your beloved pets for several weeks, knowing they're in the hands of someone you can truly trust is incredibly important. We feel very fortunate to have found Dolores, and we're sincerely grateful for all the kindness, care, and attention she's given our cats! We wholeheartedly recommend Dolores to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring pet sitter! ❤️
Anika was great at communicating and I could tell she developed a fun & loving relationship with all the cats. She got to know their personalities quickly and how to interact with each of them. We were gone for our wedding and I was happy to not worry at all about the cats while we were gone, I could tell Anika really cared about them and we were able to relax on our wedding day knowing they were in good hands.
Bronte was great and very understanding. My cats spent most of her visits hiding because she's new and they don't know her. But Malí eventually ventured out and decided Bronte was ok. Hopefully Malí will tell Felis and he'll come out of hiding next time. Thanks, Bronte!
Meghan stepped in at the last minute to care for our cat when our previous sitter had a medical emergency. We were on the East Coast when a Rover employee called & said that our sitter was hospitalized & that they were looking for an emergency replacement. We had a few options, but Meghan was the most responsive and had great reviews. We hadn't even met her, but we truly got lucky that she volunteered to step in. We look forward to meeting her in person the next time that we book through Rover, because we will definitely try to book her the next time we travel.
OMG! I cannot even BEGIN to say how GRATEFUL I AM to have Jessica watch my furbabies! This is my 1st time using Rover & I wasn't worried for one MINUTE that they weren't in the BEST CARE! She made sure my guy got his insulin shots on TIME & even THOUGH the Princessa didn't HONOR Jessica with her presence, she was still so happy to see me when I got home & was no worse for wear! I would recommend her to anyone looking for caring, responsible person to take care of your precious babies, Jessica is it! You won't regret it!
I wanted to tip more but the app limited me? Brionna did a great job and she really helped out by picking up a few more days when I was stuck in Barbados airport with all flights canceled for 3days! Crazy East Coast weather! I recommend using her services as she is professional and thorough. Thank you Brionna!
