House Sitting New Salem

“Booked with Cameron for an evening away. He was very good with my three pups. He sent photos and asked questions that evening if he was unsure of something rather than assuming or guessing. I will be booking with Cameron again for longer trips away in the future.”

“Thank you so much for caring and taking care of our cats!!! I really appreciate you caring about their safety and wellbeing as much as we do, and I genuinely appreciate all of the communications and pictures. We will definitely use you again!”

“My dog is severely anxious, but Laura took the time to work with her and confer with me to make the first time I'd been away from my dog less traumatic for both of us!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals all my life from my own pets to pets of friends and family, which includes being responsible for them from time to time. I’ve even had prior experience staying overnight and caring for animals that include dogs, cats, and chickens. I am a full time student in law school so my schedule depends on my classes and my school obligations for the week. However, I try hard to manage all bookings I get if the owners are willing to be flexible with times! I can care for your pet by walking them, playing with them, feeding them, hugging them, grooming them, and even staying with them overnight if that makes them more comfortable while you are away.

“Jeffrey was amazing with our puppy! It was our first time leaving her and we were super nervous about it. Jeffrey communicated everything and sent reassuring photos while we were away. Our puppy loved Jeffrey and we are already looking to book him again!”

“Alison was absolutely amazing and we cannot recommend her enough! Not only did our animals love her, but she went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable leaving them. We are so happy to have found such an amazing sitter that we will be using for all our future needs!!”

“Katharine was a wonderful sitter for our two dogs. Very reliable and communicated well with regular updates and photos. We came home to a very clean house, too! Would definitely recommend Katharine.”

About: I grew up with having a dog around the house, so I have always loved being around pets. The last two summers I have pet sat for families while they were on vacation. Some of the dogs I have taken care of have had medical needs, so I am able to give dogs medication if needed. I have taken care of big and small dogs. I look forward to working and taking care of your pet! During the summer I have more availability outside of when I am on vacation. For house sitting services, I am happy to provide overnight care for your pet. There will be times I will leave the home to run errands, go to work, family time and etc. But I will make sure that your pet’s routine is kept in tact and that they get all the snuggles and love they need. I am a full time teacher so once the school year starts my availability will change. I will not be able to provide pet care in my home. But I can provide pet care in a clients home. I am able to provide walks, feed your pet, provide snuggles, and medication if needed. I will ensure the client home stays clean if I am booked for overnight pet care. If it is too hot outside I may limit the time for the walk. I will also bring a water bottle with a bowl to make sure your dog does not overheat.

About: For the past 4 years, I’ve provided loving, dependable care for cats, dogs, and birds through overnight stays, drop-in visits, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and walks. Cats are my specialty! I’m very experienced with feline behavior, shy cats and multi-cat households. I love making pets feel calm and comfortable while their owners are away. I also have experience caring for dogs with different energy levels and routines, including daily walks, companionship, and overnight care. In addition, I have hands on experience with tropical birds and understand the importance of patience, consistency and attention to detail when caring for exotic pets. What sets me apart is the genuine love and attention I give every animal! I take my time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for. I am reliable, communicative, and committed to making pet parents feel confident while they’re away through regular updates and attentive care. I am currently a part-time worker at a local pharmacy and a Full-Time college student looking to make extra money while doing what I love. I am free at least 3-4 days a week, the more notice the better I can work around your preferred schedule. My preference is afternoons, however if mornings or nights are needed I can accommodate! I am more free during week days but can make time on weekends around my work schedule as I typically only work 5-6 hour shifts. I currently can not offer my personal living quarters for care, however I am able to travel up to 40 miles to stay with or check on pets. If you are in need of someone urgently and live outside a 40 mile radius please message me directly and I may be able to still work with you! I will walk, feed, stay with, play with and care for various cats and dog breeds! I also have experience with tropical birds and fish if need be. I will clean up after all animals and leave your home tidy and neat, as well as provide updates at your desired time span i.e (Daily, Hourly, Etc.).

“Sage was wonderful with our pets. We booked her to house sit and stay with our two dogs and two cats. She was very responsive while we were away and kept us up to date on our pets and how they were doing. We definitely recommend her and will use her again.”

About: I’m new to rover, but I’m anything but new to pet care! I grew up taking care of all sorts of animals — goats, ferrets, guinea pigs, lizards, you name it! And in the last ten years, I’ve unintentionally built up quite a resume with pet sitting just because of my passionate love for animals. I am many pet owners’ go-to for pet sitting because they trust me to take care of their fur babies in the exact way they would, so you can trust me too:) My husband currently provides the only source of income for us, so my goal with Rover is to turn my pet sitting hobby into a little bit of extra income for us. Since I have no other job, I am free as a bird with an open and flexible schedule! I can easily adapt to your schedule and your pets’ needs:) I can easily provide whatever is needed for your pet. Your pet can run freely inside or be crated to your preference. The only thing I can’t provide is a fenced in yard, but our yard is huge and far from neighbors, and I have a totally free schedule to walk and entertain your pet however much you’d like. If I am coming to your home, you can trust me to follow whatever directions you have. You can also trust me to never take on more pets than I can handle just for the sake of the money, because my main objective is to provide excellent care above all else! We have one medium-sized dog, but he stays with “grandma and grandpa” while I am pet sitting unless of course you request for your pet to have some company!

“Looked after our dogs and house well (even vacuumed) The house looked great when we got back Phil sent us lots of pics while we were away to give us piece of mind.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 10 years and spent 5 years volunteering with an animal shelter in Saint Petersburg, Russia. I helped care for rescue dogs, assisted with transportation to veterinary appointments, supported adoption efforts, and spent most weekends working directly with the animals. I also volunteered in Cape Verde, Africa, helping care for homeless animals and supporting local animal welfare projects. Over the years, I have worked with pets of different ages, sizes, personalities, and backgrounds. I have experience with both energetic pets and those who need a calmer, more patient approach. I understand that every pet is unique, and I always do my best to follow their routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s well - being and happiness are my top priorities. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I have a flexible schedule and can provide walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care. I always make sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, and any special care requirements. I understand that every pet is different and always take the time to build trust and make them feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for in their own environment.

“Shalisha was so great with our pup Morris, entertaining him during rainy/snowy days with new toys and sending us frequent updates. She left our home in good shape and we’d love to work with her again!”

About: Hi, I’m Anneliese! As a dog owner for over 13 years, I know firsthand that pets are truly family. I understand that every single pet has their own unique personality, quirks, and routine, and I pride myself on taking the time to truly understand what makes your furry friend feel safe and happy. ​Whether it’s matching the high energy of a spirited small dog, respecting the independent boundaries of a cat, or maintaining the peaceful routine of a senior pet, I’m here to provide dedicated, personalized care. I’ll treat your home with total respect and your pets like my own! My schedule is perfectly suited for house and pet sitting. I am a full-time student taking online classes, which means my 'desk' moves wherever I go! I’m highly flexible and will be spending most of my day right alongside your pet, keeping them company while I study. Your pet gets a dedicated buddy, and you get peace of mind knowing their routine won't be disrupted. To ensure the absolute best experience for your pet, I exclusively offer house sitting and pet care inside your home. At my own home, I have a happy family of four cats and one dog, so I know firsthand how stressful a crowded or unfamiliar environment can be for animals! ​By coming to your home, I ensure your pet gets to stay in their safe, comfortable haven with 100% of my undivided attention. My personal 'zoo' has taught me that every single animal has a distinct personality, boundary, and set of needs. I will treat your home with the utmoste respect while following your exact routine for feeding, playtime, and safety. Because my college classes are mostly online, I will be around your house for most of the day, keeping your pet company and sending you plenty of photo updates!

About: I have had experience with dogs for 18 years, ever since my parents got a dog for us when I was 8 years old and I had to help train it and care for it. Ever since, my family has had more dogs i’ve helped train and care for, and I have had roommates and friends with dogs that I’ve helped train and care for (including puppies, service dogs, and dogs who are elderly/ill). I am a consistent cat caretaker ever since I turned 19, when I got my first cat (7 years ago). Ever since, I have felt drawn to care for kitties and have fostered many kittens and cats since, in addition to caring for my own 2. I owned a ball python for a year or two, and my father has for six years. My sister also owned a leopard gecko for five years. I also cared for multiple guinea pigs to help out a friend for a long time. I’ve also had friends and family that have had birds that I have helped care for in the past, however, I have less experience with them. In conclusion, no matter the type, breed, size, age or health of your pet, it is important to me to make our companions/partners in life feel loved and cared for, and I would be honored to be a part of that! It is a large portion of my daily routine as is, and I would love for it to be an even larger part, especially if this could help provide means to live for my pets and I (finances) because due to certain conditions I am unable to work a normal job. I would care for your pets with kindness, love and patience. If you have any questions or concerns I would love to discuss them and I’m sure we could figure something out!

“Jessye loved my boy so well! I got consistent updates and pictures of them playing, snuggling, and being outside. She was attentive and made Jax happy and comfortable. I would recommend Jessye to everyone!!! She kept the house so clean! Jax was loving her!!!”

“Awesome experience - will definitely look to book with her again next time we're out of town. We received great pics while we were away. It was nice seeing our dogs snuggling up with her looking comfortable and relaxed. One of our pups was having some allergy issues while we were away. We received pics pretty quickly when she started looking a little rashy and asking us to confirm how we wanted her to handle it (as we had discussed before the trip). She reacted fast and our dog was happy and healthy by the time we got home with no rash or redness at all. We're very happy to recommend her. Our dogs and our home were in great hands while we were away.”

About: Caring for animals isn’t just something I do it’s something I truly love. My connection with pets is natural, and I treat every furry friend like my own. With experience ranging from energetic doggies to playful kitties, I know how to provide them with the care, comfort, and attention they need. I understand that each animal has their own personality, needs, and quirks and I embrace them all. What sets me apart is the genuine love and joy I bring to every visit. I’m not just here to feed and walk I’m here to bond, to play, to comfort, and to give your pet the attention and affection they deserve while you’re away. I focus on building trust with each pet so they feel at ease, and you can feel confident knowing your furry friend is in loving, capable hands. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! I’m available to provide loving care Monday through Thursday, with occasional weekend availability when needed. Whether it’s a mid-day walk, an evening play session, or simply keeping your pets company, I’ll always make sure your furry friends are well taken care of and content. My schedule is flexible enough to accommodate your pet’s needs, and I’m happy to adjust to fit in with your family’s routine. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and familiar environment for them. I always follow any instructions or routines you have in place to ensure consistency for your pet.
