Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule. I'm taking time between full-time positions and exploring different communities while considering my next career move, which allows me to dedicate significant time and attention to the pets in my care. Because my schedule is open, I'm able to structure my days around a pet's needs rather than trying to fit them around a busy work schedule. Whether that means morning walks, maintaining feeding and medication routines, spending extra time with pets who enjoy companionship, or simply being present throughout the day, I can provide consistent care and attention. One of my favorite parts of pet sitting is getting to experience a new area through the eyes of local pets. Whether that's exploring neighborhood walking routes with a dog or enjoying a quiet evening at home with a cat. I enjoy a low-key lifestyle and genuinely appreciate the opportunity to provide pets with stability and companionship while their owners are away.

About Devon R.

Safety, trust & environment

At this time, I primarily offer house sitting and care for pets in their own home, where they can remain in a familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I believe pets are often happiest and least stressed when they can stay in a space they know. Before each stay, I take time to learn about each pet's routine, personality, medical needs, and any household expectations. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walk routines, medication instructions, and any other care requirements provided by the owner. Consistency is important to me because it helps pets feel secure while their families are away. Because I currently have a flexible schedule, I am able to spend significant time with the pets in my care rather than treating pet sitting as something I fit around a busy workday. Whether a pet enjoys playtime, walks, companionship, or simply having someone nearby, I make sure they receive the attention and care they need. Communication is also a priority. I provide regular updates and photos so owners can stay informed and have peace of mind while they're away. If I ever have a question or concern, I believe in reaching out promptly rather than making assumptions. When staying in a client's home, I treat the space with the same respect I would want someone to show my own home. I keep the property clean, secure, and well maintained throughout my stay and am mindful of any household rules or preferences. Above all, my goal is to provide a safe, reliable, and low-stress experience for both pets and their owners so everyone can feel comfortable and confident while apart.

Information Devon R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or if you’ve noticed any new behaviors. I will make sure I meet their needs while keeping you updated on their well-being.

A typical day

We’ll explore a park nearby, see if we can find any new sights or smells. If they’re high-energy, I’ll make sure we do plenty of fun activities and games to provide them with mental stimulation.

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs and was fortunate to care for our family dog throughout his life, including his senior years. As he aged and eventually lost his eyesight, I gained firsthand experience adapting routines and providing extra support to help him stay safe and comfortable. While working from home, I was often nearby to help when he became disoriented or got stuck in unfamiliar spaces. Caring for a senior dog taught me patience, attentiveness, and how important consistency can be for animals experiencing age related changes. I understand how stressful it can be to watch a beloved pet grow older, and I know how much trust it takes to leave them in someone else's care. Whether your dog is young and energetic or older and needs a little extra attention, I'm committed to following their routine, monitoring their wellbeing, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

I highly recommend Devon as a pet and house sitter. Over the past several years, she has helped our family tremendously during periods of illness and hospitalization. When my husband was hospitalized, Devon stepped in to care for me, our five cats, and our two birds for an extended period. She managed feeding schedules, medications, daily care, and household responsibilities with patience and attention to detail. I never had to worry about whether our pets were being cared for properly because she was dependable, organized, and attentive to their needs. In addition to caring for our animals, Devon has helped oversee one of our properties for the past two years while we have dealt with ongoing health challenges. She has consistently demonstrated responsibility, good judgment, and the ability to handle unexpected situations calmly and independently. What stands out most is her kindness and reliability. She genuinely cares about animals and takes their well-being seriously. She follows instructions carefully, communicates clearly, and treats both pets and homes with respect. I would trust Devon without hesitation to care for my pets, my home, and anything else that is important to me. Any pet owner would be fortunate to have her as their sitter.
