“Marissa was amazing! As a first time user of Rover, I was not familiar with the process. Marissa explained the steps to follow and accepted my booking even though it was very short notice. She even made sure to fit in a visit prior to the dog walking dates to make sure Shadow and I were comfortable. Shadow was well taken care of and I could tell from the various pictures Marissa provided, he was enjoying his time with her! I would not hesitate to book Marissa again in the future!! Five stars!!!”

“Recently Aleisha did dog walking, check ins for over a 6 week period. She did house sitting for us over a five day trip and found her to be extremely responsible and responsive to all of our two dogs needs. One of our dogs has extreme separation anxiety and is very timid and has difficulty trusting new people. Aleisha came for dog walks a few weeks before our trip and gained Sadie's' trust over that period. While we were away, Sadie accepted Aleisha wholeheartedly. Upon our return, the dogs were excited but very calm and at ease – a real departure from other vacation experiences. Aleisha also spent several nights at our home house sitting. Again we found her to be a true pro and very reliable and respectful. We would have no problem using her again and would recommend her services to anyone who would ask. As a matter of fact, we will be using Aleisha for occasional walks to keep in touch with Sadie and keep their bonds intact. Just such a pleasure to have someone as reliable and trustworthy for both us and our pets.”

“Ayesya was very friendly and helpful when I needed a sitter in a small time frame. Ayesya was on time, eager to work with my two huskies, and was incredibly professional when we discussed care for my pups. Ayesya makes a great dog sitter and I would definitely recommend her for any of your dog care needs. Thank you, Ayesya!”

About: Your pet's health and happiness is my priority and I will follow instructions to the smallest detail. I absolutely adore all animals! I've grown up with dogs and cats, and have spent at least 3 years pet sitting. I currently own two crazy senior cats who I'm obsessed with. In the recent past I had two sweet and mellow rescue pups. Throughout my childhood I took it upon myself to take care of the family pets. Looking after animals comes naturally to me and you can count on me to be that person at a party who spends more time with the cat than the people. I am available most days and times and am able to be pretty flexible. Weekends can get a little busy but I can fit a visit or two in if needed. Every day I pay attention to the animal's health and mood. I'm quick to notice if something is amiss and take care of it right away while communicating closely with the owner.

About: My love for animals began at a very young age on my family's tropical farm. In fact, my first pet was a monkey, named Pancho. Since my formative years, I have loved and cared for a variety of animals including, dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, parakeets, hamsters and more. I have dedicated my entire life to caring for living creatures, and I am looking forward to offering exceptional care to your pet by demonstrating my superior skills. I have been known as an animal whisperer among family and friends, and I am excited to provide superb care for your furry (or scaly) family member. I am available 7 days a week from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm. Additionally, I can provide OVERNIGHT SERVICES for appropriate compensation, the same goes for distance. DISTANCE is not an issue as long it is for a couple of days, a week, two weeks or more. Please be advised DROP-IN VISIT / DOG WALKING is available within 10 miles or less away from my location. I am very reliable and at your service around the clock, including holidays. I am highly attentive to every pet's needs. Your pet will be clean, fed, loved, and cared for. I will strictly adhere to any routines or schedules your pet has established. I am detail-oriented and meticulous. I ensure you all of your pet's necessities will be fulfilled.

I’m skilled at giving medications, calming anxious pets, and provided the attention your furry baby needs. I’m happy to send frequent updates to keep you at ease, treating your pet with all the love and care they deserve. I am currently looking for some time to spend with pets when I am not working. I have a passion to be with animals and it brightens my day to help someone and spend time with a cute furry pet. I love to be active and create an environment that the pets can thrive and be loved. I have free time throughout the week to tend to their needs and get them out of the house or play with them to get their jitters out. For dogs, I love to play with them and go for walks or runs so they can go explore. For cats, I make sure their environment is clean and give them constant snuggles and comfort.

I am currently working part-time as a nanny most Thursdays through Saturdays, I am typically always available during the beginning of the week and work some half day shifts nannying so my schedule is open to changes. I always ask my clients to provide me with a strict set of rules and requirements, so that both myself, and the client feel comfortable with me being in the space.

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life. Since high school, I have been dog sitting for multiple friends, family, and school mates for a variety of dog breeds. I am currently on summer break from college. So my schedule is pretty flexible for all of your dog sitting needs. Week days and weekends included. I plan to travel to your home to meet your dogs comfort needs. Please let me know if there is anything specific I can do you make your pup feel comfortable.

About: My fourth birthday I asked for a dog, and continued to do so every birthday thereafter. Growing up my family was not in a position to have a pup, so I found every other way to engage with them. I walked family and friends dogs, pet sat, and read all the books about dogs and cats I could find in my little school library. As an adult I have been graced with the opportunity to rescue my own pup, and have since learned a whole slew of new skills and knowledge. I have experience caring for dogs with separation anxiety, reactivity, nervousness, and anxiety. (Let's just say my rescue experience really gave me a crash course in how trauma can effect dogs well after they are safe in a home). I have done hours of research (and application of that research) into how to effectively train and respond to behaviors. I personally prescribe to a positive reinforcement system and 'protecting their bubble' dual training method. I would love to meet you and your pup, and find out how I can best help to meet your dogs needs for a happy and healthy life! I'm currently working part time summer hours. I work in behavioral health care for kids and have plenty of time available to care for your pet! My dog is a rescue and we put in time training every day to help build her confidence and trust in the world. She's very nervous of other people and dogs, so unless it seems like a really great fit personality wise between our dogs, I will love providing your pup love, walks, and engagement in your home or out in the community! I prescribe to positive reinforcement training and protecting a dogs bubble. I would love to hear about your dog and that they need. You are their expert and I am here to provide you both support how ever you may need it. If your dogs is like mine and doesn't get along with other dogs, I know lots of places to walk and adventure where it's easy to avoide other pups and also have strategies use if we do come across them such as the Banana method, and training a "center" position, and skills and drills to do before a walk to ensure a dogs engagement and focus is on me before the walk.

About: I am an animal lover who would love to provide care to your pet so you don't have to worry about leaving them at home while you're at work or on vacation! My services include dog-walking, drop-in visits to check on and play with your pup, overnight boarding if you're away on vacation (at my home or yours), or dog-sitting for the day while you're at work. I have experience with volunteering at various animal shelters, caring for dogs on Rover for several years, owning several family dogs growing up, and spending time with my parents dog, Boomer (a rescue Shih-tzu yorkie mix), my sisters dog Lola (a mini schnauzer) and my in-laws’ golden retriever, Remi. As of June, we also have a golden retriever puppy of our own who adores other dogs, so it is important that your dog gets along with other dogs. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I love hanging out with the doggos and will be flexible with our activities based on their age, activity level and owner preferences. I love exercising and being outdoors so I’m always willing to go for walks or hikes with your dog! Or if they’re older I can stay in and relax with them too 😊 I have a very flexible work schedule and am home a lot so will be able to devote lots of attention to your furry friend. My husband and I live in a home on 5 acres on a quiet rural road in Maine that is perfect for taking dogs for walks or a swim in the pond (if their parents say yes!). Your dog will have plenty of room in the house and on our land to play and go for walks down our quiet road. I also am able to travel to your home to watch your dog too.

About: I'm a farmer's daughter and was raised by animals. My grandfather trained wild animals (the newspaper clipping) and fostered that passion in me. A relaxed, healthy individual perceives and interacts with the world differently than a stressed one. I was formerly an emergency room veterinary technician. As much as I love it, I'm no longer physically able to be a vet tech. Caring for them as a sitter brings me joy and satisfaction. I travel with a big Sitter Bag of Tricks. Puzzles, snuffles, licky mats, a potpourri of balls, frisbees and leashes for the pups. For kitties, I have a tube full of wands, nip, pompoms, laser lights, and I'm not afraid to offer puzzles and mats. Kitties like them, too. Everyone enjoys pet relax playlists. My goal is to take care of them physically, emotionally and psychologically. Además, hablo español por si les ofrece. I've done summits with Drs Julie Lee, Judy Morgan, Edward Baissingthwaite and others regarding wellness and holistic care. I'm committed to learning from experts the best ways to help them live their longest, best lives. I know intimately the bond between pets and family, pets as family, and your family will be loved and cared for when you can't be home yourself! I am a certified Fear Free Sitter and a member of PUPS (Professional United Pet Sitters.) I keep it basic: good nutrition, tons of fresh water, exercise, environmental and mental stimulation, good hygiene and husbandry, regular healthcare, physical and spiritual closeness. I work from home so I’m with them 24/7 as needed. When we're separated from our family, even confident, resilient pets can experience some stress. I try to balance that out for them between love and fun. Their care is determined on an individual basis. I care for a variety of species and each is their own person. Learning what they love and sometimes learning new things is half the fun!
