Pet Sitting in Nerstrand

“Kaitlyn took great care of our dog while we were away! She was right on time and sent pictures and a detailed report after each visit. I highly recommend!”

“Emma was amazing! She updated me everyday how my cats were doing and sent the best photos of my girls each day too. The house was clean when I got home. But most importantly she really loved on both of the girls fulfilling their individual needs while I was away. My playful cat got time to play each day and my older cat even warmed up enough to lay on her chest and get some extra pets and kisses each day. I was halfway around the world in a country and I was not worried about the wellbeing of my cats or my house while I was away and that meant everything! I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend using Emma if you need a sitter! ❤️”

“Would absolutely have Elizabeth take care of our cats again! She was so communicative, caring, and fun 😊 we got Rover cards everyday with pictures and detailed notes- she even got our shy cat to come out of hiding! Can’t say enough good things.”

About: I've always loved dogs. I've spent three years working at a dog shelter as office manager, intake person which includes giving oral and injection medications, adoption coordinator, feeding and watering, cleaning, and socializing. I'm available during the week after 5:30pm. Weekends are open. I volunteer at the local dog shelter but need a little something more to fill my need to spend time with animals. I enjoy nature walks and stop as often as the dogs do to look at things. :) My schedule is flexible. When I am with dogs, it is sometimes hard to draw my attention away from them because they are so very loving and giving. I like to give that back to them.

About: I love all dogs! If there is a dog at a social event, I am the kind of person that you will find playing with the dog! I've been around all kinds of dogs my whole life. I've fostered and eventually adopted a rescue pup. I have experience with small dogs, medium dogs, and even very large ones! My last pup was a Great Dane named Onyx, unfortunately, he crossed the rainbow bridge last year. I miss him dearly. We haven’t adopted a new pup yet so I’m hoping to spread some love to pups that need to be walked! I will take care of yours like my own! 💛 I work a hybrid schedule. (Some days virtual, some days in the office) Just let me know what your pup needs and we can figure something out! I’m happy to meet your pets prior to caring for them, if that makes everyone more comfortable. All I ask is to be made aware of any health or behavior concerns so that we can all be the most safe.

“Levi got along well with my Boxer, Pearl. She is very shy, but warmed up to him quite quickly. He was patient with her which I greatly appreciated!”

“Christine was awesome! She was great with my cat and played and cuddled with her.”

About: I'm familiar with several different sizes and breeds of pets. Some dogs, some cats. I'm used to always having a pet around. I enjoy spending time with pets. I'm currently doing what I can for work on my own. I'm hoping pet care can become another thing I do. Let me know what you need accomplished and when. I will do my best to keep your pets on a similar schedule as they are used to. I will also do my best to keep the pets comfortable.

About: Hi my name is Kari and I've been taking care of my dogs for 11 years. I have two dogs. I have a little Morkie and a lab/aussie mix named Sammy and Daisy they are both fixed and have all their shots. I live with my family my husband and my daughter Shelly and my son Noah who is almost 7 years old. I live in a home with a fenced yard and I walk the dogs all the time. I'm off work Saturdays and Sundays. Monday through Friday I'm a dental assistant but have flexible hours. I will be the person taking care of your fur family. I am good at bathing and grooming dogs. I love all dogs and am very trustworthy. If you need a sitter or dog walker reach out to me. I am currently working Monday- Friday at a dental clinic but I'm home by 2:00 or 4:00 and my husband is home most of the time to help with the pups or kitties. I have a fenced backyard and have my very friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can kennel if you'd wish as well.

About: I’ve loved dogs as long as i can remember, I’ve been around dogs my whole life, had a Labrador Retriever growing up. My passion really began when neighbors would start asking me to dog sit for them. I always knew I wanted to do something with animals (mainly dogs.) a family friend told me about Rover & I immediately knew I had to become a sitter. I am very trustworthy and reliable & easy to reach! I currently do not have any pets in my home which makes me a great sitter if your dog isn’t a fan of other dogs/animals! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to play with your dogs & care for them. I currently only work 3 days a week for 4 hours so I’m VERY flexible! You can always count on the fact that your dog is SAFE. If you don’t have a fenced in yard, I will keep your dog leashed unless you say otherwise!

About: I have owned both cats and dogs, and I love the care that comes with owning these selfless creatures. Whether it’s playing string with cats, or going for long walks with energetic dogs, it’s a joy to interact with each of their unique personalities. I’m a dog park regular, a cat favorite and have experience with dogs from training puppies to working with elderly dogs. My schedule is, at this time in my life, rather open. I’m not in school right now, and I am lucky to be able to do pet-sitting as a steady means of work at this time in my life. During the week, I typically have a few consistent dogs that I walk for, as well as a few overnight pet-sitting jobs a few times per month. I’d love for you to be one of them! Because of this, it makes it easier for me to stay with the pet for a majority of the time, if desired. If I need to leave, it’s usually just to go home and cook my husband dinner, do a few errands or to walk/check on another pet. It all depends on your pet’s needs and habits. Feeding, bathroom and attention are the basics, but besides that I can be extremely active, going for long or several walks/day and lots of playing with toys, to more relaxed, following your animal’s needs. Hanging out with pets is as much for me as it is for the owner I’m working for and their pet. I find lots of fulfillment through spending time with animals, whether it’s my own or Rover clients. I have met many families on here that were strangers at first that eventually became a consistent friend/client.

About: I have been a dog mom for 12 years and am experienced with both young and old pups. I will ensure that your pup receives the best care/love/attention while you are away! My dogs get walks every morning and evening. I work an 8-hour, day however I come home over lunch to take my pups out to potty. I am home in the early afternoons/evenings. I have 2 smaller dogs that love the company of other dogs. I have a kennel and extra leashes for walking. Anytime the dogs are outside they will be leashed (for walks or potty) We are an animal loving home that will make sure your pup is treated like one of our own!

About: I have experience in walking dogs, daycare, puppy training, senior dog care, wound care and boarding. I can teach your dog basic commands and skills. I am kind and compassionate to every animal I meet. I will give your dog the adequate exercise and care they need! I am available anytime during the day for your pets. I try to update my calendar daily as of now I am pretty open for bookings! I have a fenced in yard for you babies to play. I have one fur baby that will keep your babies company. If dogs recall is good I am willing to take them around are 5 acres of land to run free and play as well.

About: I’ve taken care of small to big dogs for almost 10 years now. I have a dealt with a handful of reactive dogs as well as plenty non reactive dogs, I was taught how to read dogs body language about 6 months ago and I’m still working on improving! I have dealt with scuffles as well as dogs that were very persistent. Currently I am at a doggy daycare Fridays and Saturdays taking care of daycare and boarding dogs. Sunday thought Thursday I am at home taking care of my own dog by continuing his training, taking him on walks, playing with him, and watching him play with his sister. In my home I care for my pets by making sure I give them attention, exercise, mental stimulation, fun outside time with bones and toys, as well as making sure my puppy stays rested after a long day. When taking care of clients pets I treat them the exact same way and I make sure I follow the owners instructions to ensure the best care for the best pups!

About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs of various breeds and ages. I'm a beginner at administering medications and have intermediate experience working with special needs dogs. I provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to each pet's unique needs I take care of my high-energy dog daily, which has taught me the importance of providing consistent exercise, mental stimulation, and a structured routine. Caring for an active pet has prepared me to handle dogs with similar energy levels and needs, ensuring they stay happy and well-cared for. In my home, I provide a safe and welcoming environment for pets, complete with regular exercise, playtime, and a cozy space to relax. I maintain a consistent routine to help them feel at ease and follow any specific instructions from owners, such as feeding schedules or medication needs. When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize keeping their routine intact, ensuring their comfort in a familiar environment. I treat their home with respect and provide updates to owners so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

About: I have 5 amazing dogs of my own, 1 pitbull, 2 American Eskimo mini and 2 Pomeranians. I had 2 liter of puppies from my dogs (1st liter was 10 pups, 2nd liter was 5 pups) and was able to raise them well for their furever home. I run a lot, so if your dog needs to exercise, you can count me in. Or simply needs a rest day, or any kind of special needs, I’m your girl. I work full time and have my own babies to care for, but I’m a super dog mom so I’m pretty flexible and prepared for anything. With my own experiences of owning 5 dogs, and raising 15 puppies, I feel like that should speak for itself. I do have a fenced in yard, I love dogs and I want them to be happy while they're with me or their own homes.

“Araya watched our senior chihuahua while we were out of town, and I am so grateful for her help. Our boy is often cautious around new people, but he immediately fell in love with Araya, and it was clear she has a huge gift for making pets feel comfortable and safe. Araya sent regular updates while we were away, and even extended her visits by an extra day to accommodate a last second disruption in our schedule. I cannot recommend Araya highly enough. Thank you so much for everything!!”
