House Sitting in Lisbon

“I contacted Bobbie with a semi-emergent request. She contacted me back right away and agreed to the request. I ended up not needing her housesitting services, but would not hesitate to reach out to her in the future. Thank you, Bobbie, for helping to put my mind at ease. Have a great day!”

“Megan was great with both of my dogs. They received a lot of attention and love and I knew they were in good hands. I would definitely book her to watch my dogs again.”

Cyndi M.

“I’m a first time Rover user. I have 3 rescues and I needed Brie to watch 2 of them while we took one to University of Wisconsin-Madison Veterinary Hospital. Brie did a meet and greet, asked great questions, was comfortable with the dogs right away. She messaged me when I was worried about how they were doing and sent me pictures, too! She went above and beyond my expectations.”

Jarrod P.

“My dogs can be a reactive, especially when people come in the door. Skylynn remained calm and won them over quickly. She stayed in touch, sending frequent pictures. She left the house a clean as she found it. I would happily book her again.”

Sonja S.

“Wonderful to have Sidney watch our Bella. She always kept informed with adorable pictures and highlights of her day. We definitely welcome her back to puppy sitting for us.”

Whatever your pet needs I am happy to provide! My dog is spoiled to the max & I ensure your pet will receive the same treatment! I am down for just opening a door to let them out in their backyard, watching their favorite movie from the couch, playing with their toys, or strolls around their neighborhood!

“Mia took care of my 2 senior dogs including one with health problems and medication. She responded to texts quickly and sent lots of pictures. Mia sent pictures of her and my skiddish dog who usually takes a long time to trust snuggling, which says a lot! She left my home as clean as I left it.”

About: I have taken care of my own dogs since I was very young. Later in life, neighbors and professors would ask me to dog sit or dog walk when they were unable to do so. Taking care of dogs is something I enjoy and would like to do more often. I am currently working on Mondays through Thursdays at 11-8:30 but I will always be able to work around it to spend time with my furry friends. At the moment me and my family are housing a puppy that is a year old. We have a fenced in yard for her to run around and she eats well crafted food to keep her energy and health up.

“Meghan was absolutely great! I’ll definitely rebook with her.”

“Camryn was professional, she was ten minutes early (loved it because I had time to chat with her before leaving for work). Camryn sent me pictures of her and Bee throughout the day. She also updated me on how Bee’s day was when I returned home. Camryn was nice to Bee. Bee was in a nice mood when I returned home. Will definitely book Camryn again.”

About: I started my journey working at a doggy care, interacting, playing with, care the dogs. For the last couple years, I have been at the animal shelter. I have experience in emergency medical care for both cats and dogs. Your pet will be safe with me, in every way. I can give you peace of mind. I work a 1st shift full time job currently. My routine and been built to accommodate my own pets needs, enrichement. It has been pretty easy to include other kids into this routine successfully. I deal with each animal in the unique way they need. I have one dog that is not kenneled, while my youngest is when she is going to be left alone for a couple hours. I have a wonderfully structured house that has allowed to me to keep dogs separate when needed and need constant supervision.

“Thank you for helping :-). I appreciate your communication with me and great care for my animals!”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I have experience with small dogs all the way to Bernese mountain dogs. Currently I have a mixed breed named Arlo that is full of energy. We love to go on walks and adventure everyday. Your dog will not be bored and will be loved like they are my own. Currently working full time with the ability to work from home if needed. I only live 3 blocks from where I work so coming home is no issue. I am a early riser so my dog gets plenty of exercise in the mornings to wear him out while we are gone. I would be able to watch your animal any day of the week. I have a nice size backyard that isn’t fenced in (my dog doesn’t need) but have a chain in case your animal needs it. I have a very nice crate if they prefer to lay or sleep in one. I am mostly outside in the mornings and at night so your pup will always be moving or can lay around and relax if that’s what they prefer.

“So happy I booked with Mia! Great communication, very good with my rambunctious boys, and left the house in perfect condition! Would book her again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Mia!”

About: Hi there! I’m Jamie, and if I’m being honest... I love animals more than humans most days. With over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for everything from puppies to parrots—and even the occasional goat—I’ve built a life around making animals feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether you're headed out of town or just need a hand with your furry (or feathery, or scaly) family members, I'm here to make things easier for both you and your beloved creature friends. My goal? Zero stress for you, and tail wags, purrs, or chirps of joy for them. 🐶🐱🐥 Who I Care For: I care for all kinds of animal companions, including: Dogs (all ages & sizes) Cats (sassy to snuggly) Birds (my personal favorite!) Reptiles & Amphibians Rodents, Rabbits, Goats, Chickens... you name it! If they’re not human and you love them—I want to care for them. 🐕 Dog Experience: Puppies: potty training, basic commands, playtime! Seniors: medication, gentle physical therapy, stroller walks (yes, I have one!) Experience with dogs from 8–85 lbs and ages 2 months to 17 years 🐈 Cat Experience: Comfortable with all cat personalities (aloof, cuddly, spicy) Experience with elderly and sick cats, including medication administration 🐦 Bird Experience: Over 2 years of bird care experience Former bird rescuer & re-releaser (yep, I caught lost birds in buildings!) Passionate about bird behavior, feeding, handling, and enrichment 🦎 Amphibian & Reptile Experience: Experience with frogs, toads, turtles, and even an axolotl Open and eager to follow your specific care routines 🐾 Other Critters: I may not have decades of experience with rodents, bunnies, chickens, or goats—but I follow instructions to a T and learn fast. If you tell me what your animal needs, I’ll make sure it’s done right—with love and care. 💬 My Care Philosophy: Every animal is unique—and so is every pet parent. I never assume I know better than you when it comes to your pet's needs. I’ll love your animal like family, but I’ll always respect your rules, routines, and preferences. You can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and compassionate. 🌟 New to Rover, Not New to Animals While I’m just starting out on Rover, I bring decades of animal experience and a deep love for every creature I meet. Give me a chance, and I promise—you’ll be able to relax knowing your animal companions are in caring, capable hands. Let’s chat about how I can help make life a little easier—for you and your creature friends. 🐾💛 I’m currently not working and I’m ready to be there to play with your pups or other critters when you need me. I can generally respond to last minute requests if necessary, but appreciate as much of heads up as possible. I have a fenced in yard, one small, elderly and kind of cranky dog, two cats, and three teenage humans (who all love animals as much as I do!). When it comes to caring for your pets in my home, I have to be a little more discerning as I have the needs of my own animal friends to consider. I can care for potty trained, non-dominant, non-aggressive, and very calm dogs and cats in my home. I can also care for caged or tanked creature friends in my home.

“Hanna showed up early, was very polite, took my dog on two walks, and gave him lots of love and attention while I was at work. My pup and I definitely recommend her.”
