About: As the daughter of veterinarian I've spent my entire life growing up with animals. I have also spent a few summers working at a kennel with many different dogs and cats. I work as a dietitian but am currently in between jobs and have a flexible schedule. I am available to take your pups for a walk or come watch your cats most days of the week. I am open to boarding cats in my home. I unfortunately cannot board any pups in my home but would be happy to house sit and watch your animals and get them out for a walk while you're away/ working.
“I contacted Emili and Peter for help with an emergency rescue foster puppy I took on with very little notice. They were super quick to respond (on Thanksgiving no less) and were fast to get us set up for home visits 5 days a week. I now have a new foster puppy and they are again coming on the days I have to work and are taking such loving care of my dog. I highly recommend them!!”

About: Hello! Super cool story! Before I had my daughter I reduced stress, spent a large amount of time around animals, logged a ton of animal TLC, and was able to save for my daughter’s arrival all while doing this!! I’m right back in the same position! I quit my job as a nurse to prepare to get pregnant so I’ve decided to pick right back up where I left off! Just not in Texas but Florida! Making some money is a plus but doing what I love is even better! Our family adores animals but travel way too much with family all over the map so it wouldn’t be fair to have our own in this chapter of our lives! So please let me love on yours! I have a very open schedule! A super kind heart! And a need to slow life down and love on your sweet babies! I am currently not working so I have an open schedule with lots of flexibility! I have a daughter I drop off to school in the morning but am free other than that! We currently don’t have a backyard. We live on the golf course so I don’t have the ability to host an animal long term but would be open to a short stay!
“We can leave our cat Charlie knowing he will receive great care from Alana. She is responsible, always shows up on time and stays and plays with Charlie. She administers medication and is responsive to my concerns. We couldn’t get back due to the hurricane, no worries, Alana just extended her time caring for Charlie . Charlie is a shy cat and is reticent of people outside our family. Alana has built up trust and can easily pet and play with Charlie. A five star rating doesn’t cover her passion or dedication!”

Aimee was very kind and professional! She showed up on time and did a meet and greet with me and our pets. You could tell she loves animals. She came on time for the visit and also stayed the whole time and sent updates. Will definitely be using her again in the future!
Dot was wonderful with my Goldendoodle, Charlie. From our first conversation throughout Charlie’s visit with Dot, her communication and the comfort she provided was exceptional. Great attention to detail, promptness and follow through with instructions. Dot has a kind and loving personality. That was a perfect match for my fur baby. I will be hiring her again.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Osprey choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
