Pet Sitting Lockeford

About: For the past four years, I have raised and cared for chickens, lambs, and goats for our county fair. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning pens, changing water, and walking and training each animal one to two times daily. I always made sure to dedicate consistent, quality time to properly train and care for each of my animals. While these are not the specific types of animals I would be caring for in this position, I believe this experience reflects my strong work ethic, responsibility, and ability to care for animals of all sizes and needs. In addition to my fair experience, I have had animals my entire life. Currently, I have three dogs and ten chickens at home, and I am responsible for their daily care, including feeding, cleaning, and overall needs. My oldest dog is 15 years old, and I have been primarily responsible for his care for the past seven years. Most of my experience is with small dogs under 20 pounds, but I have also walked and cared for larger dogs weighing around 100 pounds. Additionally I have been a prominent member of Tokay FFA’s Veterinary science team, on this team I’ve learned dozens of minor medical procedures that I am confident in doing such as administration of various medications via oral, aural, and injections, bandage wrapping and removal, and the concept of safe handling with all kinds of animals. I am well versed in many species of animals, ages, and sizes so I hope to be a good fit for your beloved pets. I am currently on summer break and will be attending college this coming fall, as of right now my schedule is fairly open. T is a few days where my hours may change, but overall I am available at all times of day every day to fit your needs. Times are subject to change and if I ever have a conflict I will be sure to notify you with proper prior notice to ensure your pets are taken care of. If there is fences at your home I will always be sure to lock and close them behind me if your pets are inside, I am also well versed in handling larger dogs/animals so I will not easily be pushed to the side if your pet is prone to doing so. I am confident in my animal handling skills and if your dog needs to be fenced in or crated I am confident I can do so.

“This is the second time Megan took care of Lilo & Stitch for us and she was wonderful! She sent lots of pictures and gave us a summary of the drop in visit. Best of all she was able to drop in on a short notice. We look forward to booking her again in the future!”

“This was my first time having her pet sit for me and I will definitely call ask Chloe to do it the next time we need pet care. She asked good clarifying questions at the ‘meet and greet, took time to get to know my 2 cats, and asked great questions to help ensure everything went smoothly. My pets were in great hands and were well taken care of. I recommend Chloe!”

About: Pet Care Experience I grew up on a ranch and have been surrounded by animals my entire life—dogs, cats, livestock, and everything in between. I have extensive experience with both indoor and outdoor pets, and I’m especially comfortable caring for dogs with special needs. My own dog has paralysis, so I’m familiar with bladder expression, administering medications, and providing extra love and support when it’s needed most. I’ve also taken animal science courses related to pet care, including cats. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or a longer stay, I treat every pet like they’re my own. What Sets Me Apart I bring a calm, reliable presence and a deep understanding of animal behavior thanks to a lifetime of hands-on experience. I’m confident handling senior pets, dogs with medical needs, and active pups who just need a little extra playtime and love. I’m also happy to follow detailed care instructions and routines. Pet parents trust me to not only meet their pets’ needs but to go the extra mile—whether that’s daily updates, customized walks, or making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away. Working from home allows me to provide dedicated pet care as part of my daily routine. For house sitting, I integrate pet care seamlessly into my day, keeping to your pets' usual routines and ensuring they receive constant attention and affection. During drop-in visits, I make sure to check in on your pets at the scheduled times, providing everything they need from food to playtime. For dog walking, I incorporate walks into my schedule, offering your dog regular exercise and a chance to explore. My flexible schedule ensures that your pets get the care they need, when they need it. House Sitting: When house sitting, I ensure your pets are comfortable and relaxed in their own environment. I stick to their routine as closely as possible, whether that’s feeding, walking, or playtime. I keep a close eye on their health and well-being, providing plenty of love and attention. I also maintain your home by bringing in the mail, watering plants, and keeping everything tidy, so you can return to a clean and well-cared-for space. Drop-In Visits: During drop-in visits, I make sure your pets are happy and content while you’re away. I check in on them at the agreed times, providing fresh food and water, a potty break, and a bit of playtime or cuddling. I also ensure that everything in the house is as it should be, giving you peace of mind. Dog Walking: For dog walking, I focus on giving your dog a fun and safe experience. I stick to their usual route or explore new ones if that’s what they enjoy. I’m attentive to their behavior, ensuring they get the exercise they need while keeping them safe from traffic and other potential hazards.

“Trustworthy and communicative. I am new to rover and have never had a cat sitter off this platform. I booked Jeffery on very short notice having never met him in person, but he turned out to be trustworthy and attentive to my needs and the needs of my cat. Jeffery did everything I asked him to do, took pictures of the cat, and did a good job.”

She gave him the food he needed, and Iet me know so I was able to fix the feeder remotely. Rocky seemed very happy to see me, and was well taken care of. Definitely will use Lynn again!”

“Emily did a great job with my kitty. She reliably checked in on him, took care of his needs for fun, food, water, and litter cleanup. She also helped bring in packages. I came home to a happy and content Kitty after several days out of town. This was my first time using Emily and I would definitely use her again.”

“I will definitely use Kelsee's services the next time we travel. She was always pleasant and flexible. I could not have asked for better. She gave us just enough contact with text and photos to keep us comfortable. We knew our 20-year-old cat was in good hands. She also kept the wild birds fed and potted plants watered. Thank you Kelsee!”

About: Kevin and I have both been caring for dogs and many other types of animals for our entire lives and absolutely couldn’t envision our life without several animals. Kevin has grown up around a family dog business - participating in AKC scent trials, agility training, boarding and almost any other type of dog event & training you can imagine. I’ve had cats and dogs my entire lifetime and used to help foster kittens as a child and teenager. We currently have two dogs, several cats, chickens, turkeys and more. Your animals will be in safe and caring hands with us! We both work but set our own schedules and/or work from home so your dog will rarely, if ever, be left alone. Since we have animals of our own, caring for additional pets is not a problem and part of our normal lifestyle. We have a large fenced dog run outside, in home kennel area, along with crates for crate trained dogs. Our property is about 5 acres and fully fenced with front gates so dogs cannot leave the area. We also have a couple large lawns we use for doggy playtime, fetch and training sessions.

“My first time using rover and having someone check in on our fur baby! By far exceeded my expectations!!”

About: I’ve been around animals in and outside of my home since i was born. I’ve always had at least one dog since i was seven and currently have three. I am certified with Wag! as well and have been working with horses for 5-6 years so i’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages and other pets you might have in your home. I stay pretty active so long walks or runs aren’t a problem either. I’m available for drop ins, walks, and sitting, overnight, early morning or anytime you need including most holidays and weekends if it’s scheduled at least one day in advance. I’d love to provide whatever your dog needs including special requests and of course love. Long term and recurring setups are preferred but short or one time things are always good too, let me know and i’ll work with you to make sure your dogs are well cared for. My schedule is very flexible, I can usually accept same day requests, long term sitting requests (longer than 3 days) will be easier to commit to with 1-2 days advanced notice I will work with whatever your dog's needs are! I have training experience with ecollar, prong collar, gentle leader, vocal cue and signal commands, and I can maintain your pups training whether they are months or years old! I can provide any level of exercise, special care, grooming, etc. that your dog is used to.
