“Mary did a great job. This was our first experience using Rover and we would definitely recommend Mary to take care of your fur babies. We were gone 6 days, and didn’t want to put our two cats in a cat hotel. She gave my cat her medications twice a day and gave them lots of attention and pets. We got lots of photos.”
“Brittany was a delight! She was great at updating and she was quite impressive with getting my shy guy Bob to interact. We were very pleased with her services and will definitely book with her again if she’ll have us back!”
“Sarah was great! She got along great with my cat who has never been left home alone before. Photos and updates after each visit put my mind at ease so I was able to enjoy my trip. I would one hundred percent recommend Sarah to anyone that is looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”
“Fantastic experience with Natalie for drop-in visits! She was very diligent and friendly. By her last visit I could tell from her pictures that my pup was excited for her to be back for play time. So worth it to see such joy on my girl's face!”
“She was wonderful. Our cats are unfortunately bad and broke glass and she very kindly cleaned it up and took out the trash for us. She has been super responsive throughout and we couldn’t ask for much more. One hundred percent recommend.”
“Karleigh was amazing!! She was very reliable and kept us well informed including pictures each visit. She spent at least 30 minutes a visit and gave our dog lots of attention. Our dog seemed to really enjoy her visits! I plan on using her again and would highly recommend her to anyone.”
About: I grew up in a home that always had a dog, I've had my own boy for seven years now and I've been pet sitting for friends and family for the past two! I'm looking to fill my off days while also helping others care for their pets. My schedule is a bit finicky, but I'm happy to answer questions and make something work! I always have water and a portable bowl for the dogs that I walk. The summer heat is no joke and staying hydrated is important.
“She did a great job checking in on my cats and updating me with pictures, which put me at ease while i was away! I forgot to turn down the thermostat before we left and she kindly changed it for me!”
“Laura is a fabulous pet sitter. I highly recommend Laura. She is a true animal lover. I was completely happy with Laura’s services. My cats seems drawn to her immediately at the meet and greet. I came home to calm and comfortable cats.”
About: I’ve grown up around animals all my life, from cats, birds, reptiles, goats, chickens, and dogs. I’ve personally owned multiple dogs growing up, ranging from Chihuahua mixes (small) to Anatolian Shepards (100lb+). I’m able to administer medicines, including kitties, and I do own a clicker for simple tricks and training. I’m very good snd patient at taking care of senior or older pets as well since they need a lil’ extra love. I’ve also done pet sitting before several times already, and I love spending time with them all!! I’m working part time currently, working 1-2 days a week, so I will have lots and lots of free time to take care of, visit, or walk your babies! I plan to build a trusted relationship with your kitty or doggy, love them, and treat them as if they were my own. This means I will always leash your dog if taken for a walk, harness if needed. On hot days, I will always bring a water bottle and collapsible container for your puppy to ensure a fun and safe walk for everyone. For any emergency safety situations, I do plan to carry pepper spray for both of our safety. I also have a fanny pack for treats (with your approval), doggy bags for poo, and wipes for paws as needed. Kitties deserve the same level of love and care as our canines, so I will be sure to always leave with a clean litter box, monitor them for any abnormal behaviors, brush them as needed, and make sure everyone has access to fresh drinking water. Any special food plans, medications, or specific tasks can and will be done according to your directions and instruction. You know them best, after all! 💞 All of my services will include several pictures and fun videos to share with you so you don’t miss any of it. 🌟
