House Sitting in Nottawa

“Lindsey watched our dogs Friday night and all day Saturday for drop in visits. She didn't just let them out potty and leave quickly. She actually stayed and played with them, gave them treats, and spent time with them outside even during the rain. I highly recommend her and we will be using her again soon! Thank you for taking great care of our dogs!”

About: I've been caring for animals for 15 years and have had pets my entire life. While living on a farm for many years, I was responsible for the daily care of a variety of animals, including feeding, watering, cleaning, monitoring their health, and making sure they felt safe and cared for. In addition to my own animals, I've regularly cared for family members' and friends' pets while they were away, providing dependable, loving care and giving pet owners peace of mind. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. As a lifelong animal lover, I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, happy, and stress-free experience while you're away. As a mom and animal lover, I know how important it is to trust someone with the ones you love most. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a lifelong pet owner with years of experience caring for animals, I'm accustomed to feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and providing plenty of love and attention throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to accommodate your pet's needs, whether that means regular walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or sticking to a specific routine they're used to. I understand how important consistency is for pets and will do my best to maintain their normal schedule while you're away. Caring for animals has always been a part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. Your pet's comfort, safety, and happiness will always be a top priority. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. While my yard is not fenced, all pets are closely supervised when outside. My own dog either uses a secure cable for potty breaks or stays by my side while outdoors and is well-trained to remain close. For visiting pets, I follow the owner's preferences and take extra precautions to ensure their safety. Pets are never left unattended outdoors and are always kept on a leash, cable, or under direct supervision. Inside the home, I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect their routines, follow all care instructions carefully, and provide regular updates so owners can have peace of mind while they're away.

“We were a little unsure about having someone come stay with our dogs, but Mykala was definitely the answer to prayers. Our concern was completely gone upon meeting her and our dogs loved her. She was so attentive to them and of course they loved that. She always kept us up to date with what was going on and she sent us pictures, which showed us how content and happy they were. We definitely will be taking more trips knowing Mykala will be keeping Bandit and Lindy company.”

About: I’ve had first hand experience in training and taking care of one client’s dog from daily walks and bathing and grooming. I absolutely love dogs and want to expand more! I’m currently working part time. I am also a single mom. I’m available on Mondays during school hours, during the week in the afternoon/evening as well as the weekends. I will provide safe environment for your dog! There is also a dog park nearby. So you can count on daily walks or runs! Any selfies we take will be sent to you! :D

About: I've owned dogs my whole life and I can appreciate every breed. They all deserve love and compassion, and I've recently made room for cats, as well. Pets are family members, so I don't mind lending a hand for family! I have two jobs, but I am hoping to make this a replacement second job. My day job, I get out at 3pm and I have the rest of the day to help out. Of course, I have my own dog, so I'd like to stop home and care for her first before helping out where I'm needed, but other than that, I have a pretty open schedule, especially on the weekends! I will always opt for going to a client's home because I rent my place of living and am limited in bringing around other pets. I will follow any instructions given to me by my clients, and am very good at sending updates!!

About: I volunteer at a shelter almost weekly, so I have tons of experience with different dog breeds and knowledge of administering pills and eye/ear drops! I work part-time currently, so I’m available Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I can also check in on Saturday and Sunday depending on the time when I work! I have two lovely smaller dogs at home that are crate trained and they get walked daily and are taken to the dog park weekly.

About: I definitely do know my knowledge on dogs, cats or any other animal really. I have had a dog or multiple my whole life growing up so I definitely love dogs and cats with a passion. I do not work right now just trying to find something quick. So I am open to anything or anything time please definitely contact me if you need a open available person. I definitely make sure my dogs are let outside a lot everyday and make sure they are fed on time and with the right food for there health. I will provide your pet with all they need.

About: I have always had a passion for animals. I've taken care of animals of all kinds since I was a child. It's always been a love of mine and I want to be able to share my love with other animals as well. You can rest assure your beloved animal will be cared for when you leave them with me. I currently work a full time job. I would be able to care for your pet in the afternoons and weekends currently. I am hoping to be able to open up my schedule more in the future. I can use a leash/harness that you have available to walk your animal or let them outside if needed. I will pay close attention to them and assess whatever they may need.

“Casey was fantastic! I appreciated her communication ahead of tome and pre-meeting us and then updates and pictures throughout the visit. Will definitely be scheduling again!”

About: Hi, I'm Jaela! I’m an elementary school teacher, and animals of all ages and sizes have been the absolute center of my world for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm surrounded by a wide variety of animals, which taught me from a very young age how to read animal body language, handle different temperaments, and provide compassionate, patient care. Throughout high school and college, I regularly watched and walked dogs and cats. I love house sitting because it allows your pets to stay completely relaxed in their own environment while maintaining their exact daily routines. I come from a family of veterinarians, so I grew up immersed in the world of animal health, safety, and care. As a full-time elementary school teacher, summer is my favorite time for pet care! Because I am on summer break, my schedule is completely wide open. Your pets get my undivided attention, structured routines, and endless love right at home.🏠❤️ As an educator, structure and safety are second nature to me. I focus on keeping your pet’s exact routine. I provide consistent feeding, fresh water, medication if needed, plenty of playtime, and lots of love. I treat your home with total respect, keeping it clean, secure, and tidy while sending you regular photo updates!📷🐾

“Morgan did watch my two dogs Bella and Tito, did a great job and she is very responsable . She also kept me updated and sent several photos of my dogs, which was really nice for us. I will definitely book with her next time .”

“Ashley was a wonderful house sitter for our pets! All communication was prompt, friendly and professional. We really enjoyed the pictures that Ashley shared during her stay. We will definitely book Ashley again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, kitties, and farm animals since I was 12 years old. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me for years to ensure their fur babies are well taken care of while they are away, whether it’s a weekend or a week. What sets me apart from other sitters is that I’m a reliable and attentive animal lover who understands that every pet has its own personality and needs. I prioritize safety, consistency, and comfort, making sure pets feel secure while you’re away. With a strong sense of responsibility and genuine care for animals, I treat every pet as if they were my own—providing not just basic care, but companionship and trust you can count on. I work a full time job 3 days a week for 12.5 hour shifts. It is understandable if that deters animals owners away from choosing me. On the days off, the fur babies will get all the love I can give them! When I’m on a sitting job, I always stay at the clients home for the duration of the sitting job so their fur babies are in the comfort of their own home with no environment changes.

About: I have many years training young pets (even cats!) and accommodating for senior animals, especially larger breeds. Larger breeds of dogs are definitely my specialty aswell. I’m currently working part-time (sometimes!) and have an extremely open and flexible schedule, and having the opportunity to help people with their fur family members sounds very fulfilling I have years of dog training experience and used to train service dogs as a child, owning a very well trained and loved dog for over 10 years. During that time I’ve had experience caring for multiple cats with many accommodations due to our oldest being 16 and our youngest being a high maintenance sphinx (just over a year)

“Outstanding communication. I appreciated every time he was at my house he let me know how the dogs were doing. I am defiantly going to rebook with him again.”

“It was wonderful. I didnt have to worry about my pets Will was amazing with my over energetic puppy. I would recommend rover to everyone that is in need of a pet sitter.”

About: Hi! I am a second year college student, looking for an extra side hustle! I absolutely adore dogs, I have two, and one in heaven. I am just in school and work as a server on the side, so my schedule is slightly inconsistent but I have some free time every single day no matter what. I can also adjust hours at the restaurant to fit clients needs! I live at home right now, which is also quite lonely, so I wouldn’t mind taking care of some cute fur babies in my extra time!!! I only have one in person class, 9-11 on mondays! I work 3-6 days a week at the restaurant, varying from morning shifts to night- however I am totally okay adjusting my availability for the next week as long as I know the pet sitting schedule!! My schedule is pretty flexible! I have two dogs and one cat. We have an electric fence, but our dogs are pretty good and honestly don’t really need it. I get them tons of exercise everyday (at least one walk and one dog park visit) and I love them more than anything!

About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats since I was 9 years old. Lots of experience with both long and short term house sitting, with multiple animals with different needs! Currently I work part time as a dance instructor, so I have plenty of time and energy to keep your pets entertained. I’m available most days for house sitting and pet care Your home, your rules! Your pets, your schedule! Routines are super important for both animals and humans. My goal as your sitter is to make the irregular feel regular, for you and your pet(s).

“Krystal did a great job on short notice and took care of my babies, I like that she would take pictures and share them with me, extra special attention, thank you”

About: I've been surrounded by dogs and cats my whole life. I've had about 16 years of experience with dogs. I'm familiar with dogs with body mental and physical issues. I enjoy animals and spending quality time with them..I currently have a cat named Mia. In the past I had a golden retriever named Buddy. I'm a firm believer in all the benefits dogs/cats can do for individuals and families. I'm the happiest when i'm with dogs or animals. I will go far and beyond to care for your animal and make sure they have the proper care they deserve. I understand the anxiety about leaving your pet with a stranger. Therefore I'd love to meet and create a relationship with the owner to form trust. I’m an active, dependable person who truly loves animals. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I’ve always had cats or dogs growing up and can’t imagine life without them. I enjoy walks, spending time outdoors, and giving pets the attention, play, and care they deserve. I believe animals deserve happy, loving, and enriching lives. I provide pets with a safe, loving, and attentive environment. I care for my own cat, Mia, by keeping her feeding schedule consistent, cleaning her litter box daily, and making sure she gets plenty of playtime, affection, and enrichment. I pay close attention to pets’ comfort, routines, and personalities so they feel safe and cared for while their owners are away.
