House Sitting in Otter Lake

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and barn animals. Your pets will be loved, pampered, and safe in my care! I am currently working part time on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays, but I'm fully available on Wednesdays, Thursday, Saturdays, and Sundays. For pet care and flexible scheduling. When caring for pets in mine or someone else's home, I follow all instructions carefully to keep their routine consistent. I'm respectful, trustworthy, and always prioritize the pet's safety and comfort.

“Molly was absolutely wonderful with both of my elderly dogs! Bosco and Lola don’t normally warm up that quickly to a stranger but Molly has such a great energy about her. She even sent me pics of my cat even though she didn’t get paid to take care of him just so I knew he was good. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

“Levi was incredible. Our dog is quirky and I was nervous about leaving him, but Levi made all those nerves disappear. He provided us with updates, met Lenox in person before the visit, and took great care of him and our house. We will definitely be working with him again. Thank you Levi!”

“Jacklyn is so wonderful! I don’t worry when I’m gone. Everything is as it was when I left.”

“I'm truly thankful to have met and hired Yushonda. I have watched over 100 dogs, and I mean it when I say she is a step above everyone else. Mara is dog aggressive and dismissive of people and very slow to build trust. Yushonda would not settle for good enough or merely being present in the house. She strived and worked hard to build that trust, working with Mara, making her presence known, and building trust at Mara's pace. I was shocked to hear Mara got comfortable enough to jump right in bed on the first night. I had expected at the end of the stay for our dog to maybe allow pets, instead she made a great new friend by the first day and asked for belly rubs, something she only does for 3 people. Yushonda instilled trust not only in Mara but also us. Without her, we would have not been able to have gone on our trip and been able to see family, relax, and be at ease. Send Yushonda a message, you and your fur baby will not regret it or think about hiring someone else. I am so happy to know we have someone that will care about our baby as much as we do. I'm so thankful to finally have someone I can whole heartedly recommend, with full confidence, to watch my client's pets and know she will live up to that recommendation and always go above and beyond.”

“A heartfelt thank you to Kiara for the peace of mind she gave us during our wedding week. It's a funny thing to say, but I didn't worry about our dogs even once while we were away—and that’s saying a lot considering how much they mean to us! It's just that Kiara made us feel so assured from the start. Our two meet-and-greets really set the stage for a worry-free departure and her fur baby, Wednesday, was the perfect buddy for our pups. Even with two out of our three dogs requiring nightly medication, and one of our Newfoundlands having a whole array of allergy treatments, Kiara handled it all without a hitch. We got the sweetest pictures every day, and it was obvious our dogs were having the time of their lives. We wholeheartedly recommend Kiara to any pet parent. She's a great pick for anyone who wants their pets to receive the best care and oodles of snuggles!”

“This was my first time leaving my cats, and I was so relieved to find Mckenzie. So grateful to her for her awesome cat sitting! She was extremely friendly and eager to bond with my cats to make them as comfortable as possible while we were gone. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates, which I really enjoyed. She also left the house spotless. Thanks again McKenzie, I’m sure we will be contacting you again!”

“Carolyn is thoughtful and attentive to both her two and four legged clients. She checks in with us and sends pics of our pups. They love when she comes to visit and we feel so comfortable leaving them with her!”

About: I am a veterinary assistant with many years experience taking care of dogs and cats. I also have several years experience with odd animal care and husbandry. I do work full-time, so my care is going to be more focused on specialty cases and/or times that fit in with my current schedule. I am a veterinary assistant so I am familiar with animal medicine. This will translate to owners who need a little more care for their pets than a normal Rover.

About: I’ve always had a strong love for animals and experience caring for pets with different personalities, sizes, and needs. I currently own a German Shepherd/Poodle mix and a Maltese/Yorkie, so I’m very comfortable handling both high-energy dogs and smaller breeds that need extra attention and care. Caring for my own dogs has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and making pets feel safe and comfortable. What sets me apart is that I truly treat every pet like family. I understand that every animal has their own routine, personality, and comfort level, and I take the time to make sure they feel loved and cared for while their owners are away. I’m experienced in walking, feeding on schedule, providing playtime, administering basic care, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I’m also comfortable with puppies that need extra patience and energy, as well as with older dogs that may need a calmer, gentler approach. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already spend a lot of time caring for my own dogs. I’m used to maintaining feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets get the attention and care they need throughout the day. Since I’m organized and good at managing my time, I’m flexible and dependable for drop-in visits or walks during the week! I enjoy staying active, so taking dogs on walks or spending time playing with them is something I genuinely enjoy. Whether it’s sticking to a pet’s normal routine or giving extra attention when needed, I make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand how important routines are for pets, so I make sure to follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I also pay close attention to a pet’s behavior and comfort level to help reduce stress while their owner is away. I have experience caring for both large and small dogs through my own pets, a German Shepherd/Poodle mix and a Maltese/Yorkie, so I’m comfortable handling different energy levels and personalities. I keep environments clean, calm, and pet-friendly, and I always prioritize safety during walks, outdoor time, and interactions. My goal is to make every pet feel at home and give owners peace of mind, knowing their pets are in caring, dependable hands.

About: I have taken care of all sorts of dogs for the past 5 years, varying from Great Danes, English Mastiff's, and even including smaller breeds such as Shihtzu's. I am attending mott as a student for EMT, the schooling takes place in the mornings, so I should be available basically any time after 3pm. We have an invisible fence with buzz collars, so they dont shock the animals. I have also dealt with a Rottweiler that needed to be in a crate at night.

“Very responsive, friendly and overall great with our dog! Thank you so much!”

About: I have pet sat in my home and drop by visits of, dogs, cats, lizards, and fish for the past 8 or so years for money and have owned pets my whole life. I have watch anywhere from 1 to 7 dogs at a time and have multiple cats at one time. If I am doing drop by visits I perfer spend about 1 hour or more at the house each visit. During this time I will feed, water, let animals use bathroom, clean any and all messes inside and outside of the home, and play inside and/or outside with the pet. I take pictures for each visit of the pets as well as send a synopsis of the visit to the pet owner upon request. The day of or prior to the owner returning, I can sweep and mop the main living area or vacuum especiallyif it has been wet outside. If you let me know where bathing and brushing equipment is, I am also willing to wash and brush any and all pets prior to the pet owner coming home. This way the owner can come home and enjoy time with their pet rather than cleaning. I am a military veteran who is taking time off my job as a veterinary assistant to help care for alling family member. Due to my experience with military I am very time oriented and organized, but can function well in crazy environments as well. In addition to that with my experience of working in the veterinary field I am well adapt to give medication and handle medical emergencies with animals. This being said if I notice a medical issue with your pet I will take it to be seen, but will notify you prior to taking them. I personally have a diabetic cat, so I am also comfortable with giving injections and taking blood glucose reading from pets. I also have experience giving fluids under the skin if the animal is in renal failure or for any other reason. I am comfortable giving pills to animals that need medication in that form as well. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. I am able to visit your home at any time with the exception of 7 am to 8 am and 7 pm to 8 pm when I need to feed and medicate my own diabetic cat. If there is a time I am unable to visit due to care of my family I will let you know prior to our booking. Dogs will go on daily walks around the neighborhood to relieve any pent up energy and/or have yard time if you have a fenced in yard. All pets will receive lots of pets, love, and play time from myself.

“Thanks to Rachel my first experience using rover was amazing! My mind was at ease knowing my babies were in good hands while i got to enjoy a night out! I will definitely be using Rachel for any future sitter for our dogs”
