House Sitting Orchard

About: I own a hamster, so I empathize with every furry best friend. I understand what it takes to take care of your little ones, and I’m attentive and detail oriented. I have babysat from children to fish. I don’t mind I have a lot of free time, so feel free to request me at any time if I am not occupied with prior responsibilities. I currently own a hamster that I tend for by cleaning its poop and removing the stained bedding pieces. I also clean her wheel and replace her water when needed to provide a clean environment for her. For your notes, I will follow whatever instructions if needed, to care and tend to your loved animal.

“Super grateful for Cortney! She took awesome care of our two doggos while we were gone, and they were super happy and healthy when we came back. Cort sent lots of pictures and texts, and she was really great!”

About: I’m a very loving individual and you will see that. I steered into the Medical Field for a little but my heart is in animals and giving them the attention they need. I have worked at Rover Oaks as a Doggie Daycare attendant. From being bitten to having snuggling moments, I wouldn’t change my thought or reconsider any animal that I’ve taken care of. I have had animals my whole life. No dog/cat is too much for me. I love each one! I give baths and clip nails. As well as I can give medications if needed. I will be going to school to become a Vet Tech Assistant next year. I am CPR certified. I would be honored to take care and give love to your animals. I’m ready to meet your furry friends!

“Tuongvi and her partner took care of my two Yorkies in my home for the second time and I would continue to recommend her! After taking care of my pups for a few days the first time, she helped me for two weeks this time. Like before, she was communicative, responsive, punctual, and she sent me pictures and updates at least a couple times daily without me having to ask. She was also accommodating to my few ad hoc requests. She respected the instructions I shared and asked questions where clarity was needed. My home was left in good shape. It is appreciated that I was able to be away feeling reassured and having peace of mind that my pups and home were going to be OK. Thanks Tuongvi!”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care I have for animals. While this is my first year on Rover, I’ve been around and taking care of animals my whole life. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I want both you and your pet to feel comfortable and know they’re in good hands. Im currently working on an online business where all I need is wifi and my laptop. Im also a college student looking to make some extra cash to pay off tuition. Both of these things I can do online anytime which leaves me for plenty downtime and study breaks I can spend with my furry friends! I care for every pet based on their individual needs and routine. I make sure they’re fed on time, get plenty of attention and exercise, and have a safe and comfortable environment. In a client’s home, I’ll follow their instructions closely and keep their pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. My main goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away.

“Thank you Hannah for taking care of our puppies while we were out of state. Was a short notice but Hannah still took care of our babies’ needs and kept us updated”

About: With 16 years of experience with pets, I can read their body language and know how to interact well with them. Neighbors trust me to take care of their pets during their holidays. Your pet can explore every corner of my home; I will not restrict them to separate spaces or lock them in backyard (I saw my neighbor pet sitter always do in that way). Your furry friend will feel relaxed and comfortable as if they are in their own home. Also, I own a well-mannered, self-trained small service dog on-site. I offer puppy training sessions and specialized care for senior pet. A complimentary dog bath is included for any boarding stay of 10days or longer. I work remotely from home, meaning i can supervise and care for your pets around the clock, seven days a week. Dogs get two daily walks — one in the morning and one in the evening. I also have a private backyard where they can relieve themselves and play freely four additional times throughout the day. My property features a secure fenced backyard, plus i have a sweet, friendly service dog. I’m passionate about pets, and strive to give your beloved pup a cozy, home-away-from-home experience.

“Monika house-sat for our Husky, Pitbull and our cat for 17 nights while we were overseas, and she was outstanding. Daily photo updates without us asking, consistent cleaning and feeding schedules, and all animals were calm and healthy when we got home — which says everything after two-plus weeks. Zero worries the entire trip, and for an international trip that peace of mind is worth more than the booking fee. We'll rebook her without hesitation.”

About: I grew up on a ranch here in Texas with many different dog breeds of all ages. I have plenty of experience and I’m comfortable with any breed! I’m stay at home mother with 2 little girls who are 3 and 1. We love pets but don't have any of our own. We go outside for walks through the day frequently and enjoy giving pets plenty of attention. I’m a stay at home mom, so I’m home most of the day and have plenty of time to care for pets. I live in an apartment complex with a fenced dog area, so dogs can safely get outside, play, and get some exercise. I’d make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, playtime, and lots of love while they’re in my care.

“Jalynn is wonderful! It was our first time having her pet sit and it was a long assignment almost two weeks over the Christmas holidays. She was so flexible and helpful and the pets were happy and well cared for. We are already planning to have her for our next vacation!”

“Mona went above and beyond watching our pup Luna! She made sure to keep me updated and Luna busy! She is a very sweet and thoughtful person. Mona will be our trusted caregiver for Luna when we need a sitter! Thanks again!”

“Emily was great, very attentive and provided lots of daily feedback and photos. She went above and beyond what we asked of her. I would certainly recommend her for your dog/house sitting needs.”

About: I've cared for dogs since I was 8, growing up with a husky and a poodle who were truly part of our family. I'm patient and even-tempered, and I rarely get frustrated, especially with pets. Today my wife and I share our home with our own 2-year-old dog, so caring for a dog is part of our daily life. I'm comfortable with high-energy breeds as well as gentler, calmer dogs. Caring for dogs is already built into our routine because we have our own 2-year-old pup. My schedule is flexible, and I'm available for boarding and daytime. Your dog will get regular walks, meals on their usual schedule, and plenty of attention throughout the day. We live in a first floor apartment with a securely fenced yard, so dogs can play outside safely and there are no stairs to worry about. The neighborhood is quiet and has several small parks within walking distance. My wife and I are both at home with your dog, and we always follow your instructions for feeding, medication, and house rules. Our 2-year-old Westie is a happy, social pup who gets along wonderfully with every dog he meets, they will definitely have a good time!

“Valerie is a very responsible and loving pet sitter . My dog Thor is very particular on who he likes and he was drawn to her asap and even after her days of sitting - he would sit at door waiting on her . I would rebook Valerie anytime !”

About: Hello! I’m a long time pet lover and house sitter (of my own place) I have interacted with many pets of my friends and worked at animal shelters. My experience with pets starts in high school when I volunteered at the local animal shelter cleaning out kennels, grooming and playing with cats and dogs. I then graduated to being a pet auntie for my friends animals and then pet sitting for various clients. I love pets, they are adorable and I can’t wait until I can have my own! Until then, I guess I’ll just pet sit…. I work from home on most days, so my schedule is flexible enough to allow me to look after pets such as spending quality time, potty breaks, exercising via walks and playing with cat toys. When I care for pets in their home, I take care to read all of the instructions and look after the home. This can include administering medications, accommodating different diets and walking styles (such as the slow walkers, the sniffers, the neighborhood watchers). I make sure to leave the home the way I found it because that is what I would like if I was the pet parent.
