It was awesome having someone who was familiar and comfortable with ferrets as well as medicating our cats. Will definitely be booking with her in the future!”

About: I have had dogs of my own since 1999. Before joining Rover, I dog sat for family members in my home and in theirs as my work schedule allowed. Since joining Rover, I have been pet sitting a lot more! I I completed dog behavior training while volunteering for a local pet rescue. I have a fairly open schedule at this time. While I will be doing pet care part time, most engagements should work with my schedule. With Rover, you are most likely to find me available by planning one to two months ahead. When in your home, I will strive to maintain your pet’s environment and schedule. I want your pet to be comfortable while we are together.

About: I love dogs! I take them on walks, day trips, and I do week-long stays. I’ve cared for multiple dogs at once, including a variety of breeds and ages. I have a little special talent of teaching dogs new tricks! Growing up I have always been told I have a genuine bond for all dogs. Whether it’s a fun walk or a relaxing day, I ensure they’re happy and well cared for. As a college student home for the summer, I have plenty of time on my hands to care for your pets! I love spending time with animals and can easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, and house stays ranging from a couple of nights to even a full week. While there are a few weeks I’ll be out of town, I’m happy to work around those dates and be as flexible as possible to meet your needs! When I care for a client’s pets in their home, I treat them with the same love and attention I would as if they were mine. I follow their daily routine closely, including their feeding, walks, play time, or just sitting with them so they feel safe and comforted. I understand that being away from their family can be stressful, so I do my best to make them feel calm, happy, and loved. I also take care of the home with respect and keep everything clean and in order. I truly enjoy bonding with each pet and always keep the owners updated with cute photos and videos, so they know their pets are in good hands.

“Britany was an amazing pet sitter. She came to our home twice a day for over a week. We have three kittens all under 1 year so there were some special instructions about feeding and keeping them apart at times. Britany went above and beyond to make sure all our cats had the care and attention they needed while we were gone. She gave detailed updates as well as included numerous photos after each scheduled visit. Once you meet her you know she has the biggest heart! We need to go out of town soon and plan to book Britany again!”

Hi Brooke, you did a wonderful job! We got back from our long trip a couple days ago and we appreciate all of your hard work! The kitties were very happy! Also, thank you for putting the trash containers behind the house and for filling the cat food in the outside cat house. We had forgot to tell you that we put the plants elsewhere and not to worry about watering them, sorry about forgetting to tell you! And we'll give you the wifi password during our next trip, if you wish to keep doing the job during our future trips. Great job, we are very grateful. I hope you had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Gracie did a fantastic job with watching our senior cat! I could very much tell that Gracie cared about our sweet girl as one of her own!! With the way she went out of her way to make sure our cat was comfortable when she wasn't feeling well, Gracie also had attention to detail for the little things to help make our cat comfortable or provide for all of the little things to make the environment better for our kitty. While also cleaning up and taking care of any accidents or sick spots. Gracie provided detail updates every day and made me feel extremely happy with leaving our cat in her care while we were away! Gracie provided a calm presence, and is a truly caring pet sitter who wants to provide for the animal she is watching as if they were her own baby! Her personality alone makes her a great choice to care for a fur baby!! I highly recommend Gracie and will be using her again in the future when needing a pet sitter!
