“One of my favorite Rover sitters! Communication was great! Fallowed directions. I came back after a long day to happy tired dogs. Falisity walked and played with my dogs. If you are at Shore Hills campground look for her on Rover”
“Atlas is the best dog sitter we’ve found on this app - probably that we’ve found ever. We cannot recommend her more highly. She went above and beyond for our dogs and was quickly our reactive dog’s favorite person. We’ll be booking with Atlas for all our future travel and dog sitting needs.”
“My dogs absolutely LOVED Jason! He definitely gets and understands how to connect with animals, and also knows the needs of a fur-mom when away; needing to know that they’re safe and content. He was communicative and always let me know how they were doing and what was going on. I’ll be calling on him again for sure!”
“Caroline did an amazing and thorough job with our fur baby! We had last minute travel plans come up and she was still able to accommodate our crazy schedule. She took multiple walks with Zeke and was great at communicating and sending pictures. Zeke is a pretty anxious dog, but he was comfortable with her right away, as were we! She asked questions that showed she genuinely was interested in making sure he was comfortable. We will definitely be booking Caroline again and would highly recommend her!”
“Wendy did a great job with my pup,Buddy! She even stayed later to make sure he wasn’t alone! Very nice, our whole family liked her tight off! She also sent me a great picture of Buddy, he looked very content! She also was available on short notice, as my son surprised me with a visit! Thanks again Wendy! Definitely will be booking you in the near future!”
“Anna did a great job with our dog, Vessy. She sent daily updates, and Vessy was clearly well cared for. I would definitely recommend Anna and will for sure ask for her to dog sit again in the future.”
About: I have 6 years total experience working at Harbor Road Veterinary Hospital as a Vet Tech/Assistant as well as caring for boarding animals. I have 3 dogs and 3 cats! I’m currently working full-time Monday Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and I spend weekends at home with three dogs and three cats. I will require a harness for walks! I would not want to be in a situation where your dog could get off leash and run off. I am willing to take dogs to the dog park and on walks! depending on the situation I may be able to fit in a walk and/or drop in during the weekdays, just reach out and ask! Boarding - dogs must be dog friendly! Cat friendly would be a plus but the cats are in a separate area of the house blocked off by a gate. I work with Animals 4 days a week at Habor Road Veterinary Hospital as a Veterinary Tech/Assistant. I help provide routine care such as vaccines and Flea/tick/heart worm prevention (under the supervision of a licensed DVM), illness visits, blood panels, nail trims, dematting, etc. With my experience in the Veterinary Field I am confident I can provide a safe trusting environment where your dog/cat will have all their needs met and plenty of love while spending time with me.
About: I’ve had dogs in my house for as long as I have been alive and have a great love for dogs and cats alike. I have years of experience pet sitting for both dogs and cats. I currently work a full time job but have Sunday through Tuesday off every week and have plenty of time to drop in and feed or play with your pet as well as take your pet for a walk. I am un able to take dogs into my home as my current residence does not allow dogs, but I am more than happy to drop in to your home and take care of your pet.
About: Highlight: I am experienced with aggressive and reactive animals! Note: I am very flexible with pricing. If my rates seem too high, feel free to reach out anyway and I'll be happy to see see what we can work out. 😊 I have had animals in my home and life as long as I can remember. I have cared for countless dogs, cats, and small animals. At one point in my life I had seven dogs and a number of other pets. Animal care and rescue is my greatest passion. I am skilled at handling dogs and other animals of all ages, sizes, and temperments. I have worked with aggressive and reactive dogs and have experience deescalating conflicts when they arise. I am more than happy to care for any kind of animals- not just dogs and cats. My own current pets are two dogs and four cats. I also have experience caring for small animals, various poultry and livestock, and horses. When I was 15 years old I started occasionally farm/house sitting for a family with dogs, horses, and a cat, and caring for all of the animals there during my stay. With them I have worked daytime hours as well as overnight stays for a few days at a time so they could take trips out of state. In my adult life I have branched out, first with Rover a few years ago, and then with expanding farther into launching my private pet care business at the beginning of 2024 while still maintaining my presence on Rover. My client base is steadily growing and I am excited to see where this venture takes me! I am reliable and committed to providing excellent service for my clients. If you want a pet caretaker you can count on who will treat your animals as well as their own, I'm your gal! I work part time as a BHP and I try to be as flexible as possible. My schedule changes depending on the time of year. Currently I work with my human client from 7:15 am - 8:15am and 2:30pm - 5:30pm on weekdays and am off on weekends. I take care of animal clients all days of the week. Please message me and I'll do my best to work something out. I take utmost care to keep animals in my care safe and properly contained. I make sure to follow whatever rules and structures are in place for the animals to ensure their safety. Pets are always leashed inside before heading for a walk and the leash isn't unclipped until we are back inside with a closed door. I am vigilant in looking out for potential risks (e.g. other animals, cars, bad things they could eat, etc) and making sure to give them a wide berth. In my own home I have any small animals carefully segregated into rooms that predator animals don't go into. Anytime I leave the room, I do a check and verify that all predators are outside the door so nobody can get hurt. I monitor the dog around the cats to make sure all interactions are safe. I have utlized crates and baby gates when necessary to keep animals safely contained and/or separated in the past. I am skilled at containing flight risk animals and watching out for their safety.
“Vanessa is a wonderful pet sitter and we highly recommend her. She kept our pup happy and entertained, and also sent us many pictures throughout the day. She is kind, respectful, and knowledgeable about dogs. We highly recommend Vanessa and plan to have her pet sit for us in the future.”
About: Leave your pets with someone who makes them feel like you never left them. I will treat your babies like my own. They will not go a second without feeling they’re loved and cared for. I have a full time job besides this. It’s a 7:30am-5:00pm Monday-Friday. I also have a part time job. You will know my schedule when we talk to see if it will be a good fit! Eventually I wanna do this as much as I can. So once I get frequent accounts I will be dropping my part time job and go from there! Taking care of someone else’s pets is a privilege. Yes, I am getting paid but I also take your trust in me taking care of your babies seriously. I will do as told and not do anything you wouldn’t approve of. I will take care of your pets the way I would want mine to be cared for. I always like to message frequently to give updates and picture! * ILL BE TAKING A DOG FIRST AID AND CPR CLASS SOON*
