House Sitting • Jun 07, 2026

Jared was wonderful! We were visiting Oroville to attend our neices wedding. We had no idea what we were going to do with our baby, Buddy. A friend told us about Rover.com. We booked with Jared two months before our trip. We knew immediately we had made the right choice. We have never left Buddy. He has terrible separation anxiety. Jared was able to connect with Buddy and had him sleeping in his arms in no time. Thank you Jared for the wonderful care you gave Buddy!.

Jarred is an amazing pet sitter who loves and cares for my dogs as if they are his own. He spent as much time as possible with them so they got the attention they need while we were away. He is a true animal lover and a calm, assertive pack leader which is important for us since we have PitBulls. You won't be disappointed!

We had such an incredible experience with Jarred Hickethier house sitting and taking care of our dog, Oliver. From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing everything was in his hands. Jarred went above and beyond—not only did he keep our home in perfect condition, but he treated Oliver like his own. He was attentive, responsible, and made sure Oliver stayed on his routine, happy, and well cared for. It’s clear he genuinely loves animals and takes pride in what he does. Coming home to a clean house and a happy, relaxed dog made all the difference. Trustworthy, dependable, and thoughtful—Jarred is someone we would absolutely recommend to anyone needing house or pet sitting. We’ll definitely be asking him again in the future!

Schedule

Pet care is an important part of my daily and weekly routine. I provide feeding, walks, playtime, and attention for dogs, as well as care and companionship for cats, including medications and special needs. I also maintain the home—tidying, watering plants, bringing in mail, and keeping everything secure. I work part-time, so I can provide care most days after 2 PM, with some earlier availability depending on the day. My goal is to create a happy, consistent routine for pets and a worry-free experience for their owners.
