Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Parkside

About: ‼️NOT AVAILABLE JULY18th only early morning pick up for that day || FULLY BOOKED FOR JUNE. Hello, fellow pup parents! Staying home and caring for dogs full time is my absolute dream come true. There is nothing I love more than welcoming dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities into our home and giving them the dedicated love, attention, and comfort they deserve while you are away. When you and your pup visit us, you'll also get a little taste of our family's favorite holiday, we absolutely love Halloween! We keep fun decorations up around the house year-round, giving our home a warm, cozy, and slightly whimsical feel that we hope you and your pup will love. I have a sweet 4-year-old daughter who has grown up around animals. She is incredibly well trained in "dog etiquette" she understands when a pup needs their own space, respects their boundaries, and knows that it’s completely okay if a dog just wants to relax without being petted. I am a very experienced dog owner and currently have a sweet Husky named Archie (he’s the 4th Husky I’ve loved!). He is your typical, goofy, dramatic boy who loves making friends of all sizes. However, he is also wonderful at reading the room if a guest dog is nervous, Archie is happy to give them total space and just stick to his chew toys. We live in a home with a spacious, fully fenced yard. It is the perfect setup with tons of room for high-energy zoomies, but plenty of quiet, shaded space for pure relaxation. I have a car so I can definitely move around without no problem. I have enough space for a big doggie. Please note I will need 1-2 days in advance to know if any cancellations will be made or need adjustments Because I am home full-time, your pup is always supervised and loved. Our home features a large, fully fenced yard for safe playtime and plenty of indoor space for relaxation. I customize care based on your dog's needs, whether that means letting them socialize with my friendly husky, giving them their own dedicated quiet space

“Julie did a fantastic job caring for my two cats. One of them can be quite aggressive so I’m always anxious when I need to find a new sitter. Julie set my mind at ease from the beginning and went above and beyond to take great care of both of cats, sending me updates and photos each day. Highly recommend. Thank you, Julie!”

About: I have grown up around animals my whole life, from dogs, cats and turtles all the way to horses, goats and chickens! I have had quite a few dogs throughout my life of different breeds and sizes. I regularly watch my family and friend’s pets, from a young spaniel puppy to a big senior Labrador who thinks he’s a puppy. I treat my senior friends with care and affection, wanting them to know nothing but happiness! I have also had a few puppies and understand the patience and care they require, especially when it comes to teaching them manners. I am currently unemployed so pet care will be my full time job! I am completely available everyday at all times to take care of and spend time with your furballs! I have two cats who run my home, they are leash trained and I regularly take them out to explore the backyard and play outside! They are very spoiled and I shower them with treats and toys when I can. When I watch others pets I want to know exactly how they want me to care for their pet, not wanting the animal to have to stray too far off their regular routine, especially when it comes to puppies.

“Michaela was flexible, communicative and a good listener, thorough and conscientious. We appreciated knowing that our animals were well cared for while out of town. Highly recommended.”

“Jenny was fantastic! You can tell she genuinely loves caring for animals. Her comments and photos brought a smile to my face knowing my pup was well tended to! Thank you for your glowing energy, Jenny!”

Danielle S.

“Jessica answered my call for help quickly! She took care of Maple who needed a day off today…when I had to work! Let me know about a minor accident! Thanks Jessica!”

Pamela J.

“Amazing pet sitter! Very attentive to details and communicating! She made sure that Bravo was well fed and taken care of! Would highly recommend to anyone needing their pets taken care of”

“Miss Tiffany immediately bonded with our fussy old cat, Leo. She understood what he wanted and delivered copious pets, snuggles and treats for 12 days. The photos were a testament to his happiness. We couldn’t be happier with her service and most definitely will request her again should the need arise.”

Jo Lynne-Dennis R.

“Shaelyn took wonderful care of our three cats, sending us regular feedback, updates, and photos. It was such a relief knowing our cats were in good hands. We have a kitty with medicine needs and one who was dealing with a hairball and Shaelyn handled it all flawlessly. We were so appreciative for her high level of care and communication.”

“Sammy was an amazing cat sitter and I can’t recommend her enough. She is incredibly kind and clearly has a natural way with animals. My cats are usually very shy and take a long time to warm up to new people, but they were comfortable with her almost immediately, which says a lot. She kept me updated while I was away and sent lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear they were happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I would absolutely trust Sammy to watch my cats again in the future!”

Taylor R.

“Marissa is a fantastic pet sitter. My cats adore her and she gives them so much attention on her visits. I am always so excited to see her photo updates. My cats are not overly high-need, but she does a great job making sure their food is full, their water is fresh, and their litter boxed is cleaned. Marissa is very easy to communicate with and someone I absolutely trust with my pets. I have so much peace of mind knowing she will be there to take care of my best buds when I am out of town.”

About: I grew up surrounded by animals and have cared for dogs and cats for neighbors and friends for many years. I've done drop-in visits to overnight week-long stays. The people who know me know I treat animals like family, with the utmost care and love. I have a special way of bonding with any animal, regardless of their personality. I've tenderly cared for senior dogs and cats who require multiple daily medications, as well as young puppies with boundless energy. I love them all. I am communicative, detail-oriented, and punctual. Overall, I look forward to meeting your furbabies and caring for them while you enjoy your time away, worry-free! I just graduated from WSUV and plan to take some time off before jumping into a career. I have a very open and flexible schedule, and I will be happy to work with any client in a way that best meets their needs. I have personally used Rover many times for my own pet, and I understand how much flexibility is appreciated. I am happy to diligently follow any instructions regarding how the owner would like their pet cared for in their home. I am punctual and can arrive at the time requested for a drop-in visit. I can attentively follow any instructions, for example, precise dosing for meds or the amount of food to give, etc. Additionally, I pride myself on being very communicative.

“My boys did great with Madelyn and are so excited to have her back! 😄 She is super communicative and sweet and takes the time to get to know your fur babies and respects their personalities. She is wonderful!!!”

“Annabelle is very caring and dedicated. Our cat is usually reluctant when meeting strangers, but was instantly drawn to her. She spent so much time playing with our cat and I felt that he got sufficient affection while we were away. We will definitely rebook!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. What started as a small childhood side hustle of going out of my way to care for other people's dogs has grown into a lifelong passion. I raised my own dog until he was 16, giving me deep, adaptable experience in senior pet care. I also volunteered at the Humane Society, working with animals of all sizes and breeds, especially the misunderstood ones! Whether we're going on a fast-paced walk, hanging out with a lazy Pug, or just cleaning the litterbox and chilling with your cat, I'm ready to treat your pets like my own. As a remote worker, my daily schedule is generally very flexible! I am open throughout the day, but I prefer to schedule most of my walks and drop-ins for anytime after 11 AM or 12 PM. Since I am also a student, my exact availability might shift a bit depending on my course load for the semester, but I will always keep my calendar updated and communicate clearly with you. Because I currently live in an apartment, I exclusively offer walks and drop-in visits at your home. Honestly, I believe that keeping pets in their familiar environment is the easiest and least stressful option for them. When visiting your home, I will be completely respectful of your space, ensure all doors or gates are securely closed, and keep your pets safe and happy in the environment they already know best.

“Brooklyn did a great job taking care of my kitty when I had to go out of town on short notice. She was wonderful to work with, her attention to detail and communication skills are top notch. My shy cat quickly warmed up to her after a few visits. This shows that Brooklyn is great with animals, as my pet is very selective about who she trusts. I look forward to booking with Brooklyn again and I would highly recommend her to others looking for a pet sitter.”

About: Currently a pet parent of 1 dog and 2 cats. Experience outside of rover taking care of peoples furry friends. Good with being an advocate and dealing with dogs who are more shy and nervous as I have a shy/nervous dog myself. I will be intentional about the care and support your pet needs. I currently have a very flexible work schedule and will be able to fit to most schedules in terms of the family and pet needs. Though we won’t host any pets at our home, I will make sure I have a full understanding of your expectations and needs when taking care of your favorite family member.

“Alexander was great! As a first time rover user he eased my worries and sent detailed updates and pictures. Will definitely ask him to check on our babies again!”

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember (I’ve been sneaking animals in my home since I was in diapers😌), and being around them truly makes me happiest. I’m incredibly empathetic toward animals (I don’t even kill bugs!), so every pet in my care is treated with gentleness, patience, and genuine love. The dogs in my photos are my beloved old pups (Milo the Golden Retriever and Yoshi the Shih Tzu) Milo was 8wks when I got him and Yoshi was 5wks — I don’t currently have any dogs, but I do have two friendly cats at home. Lucy my tiny little black cat🖤 and Foggy my orange menace 🧡 (both rescues) I have hands-on experience caring for and training my own dogs over the years, from large breeds like Dobermans to small breeds like Shih Tzus. I’ve also had cats my entire life so growing up half my cats were kitties I found, some even needing bottle feeding. I'm comfortable with all things feline — from playful kittens to independent seniors. Beyond dogs and cats, I’ve cared for chickens, birds, and many other kinds of pets throughout my life. I love getting to know each animal’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. With me, your pet won’t just be watched — they’ll be cared for like family. 💛 Haaay! 🌾 *ba-dum tss* As you see being a stand up comedian wasn’t my calling so here I am 🥲 My name is way too long so I just go by Mari I’m a stay-at-home mom with lots of free time and even more love to give your fur babies! I’m not a regular mom, I’m a cool mom! 😎 I currently live in Vancouver, Being home most of the day means I can give your pet plenty of attention, care, and one-on-one time. I’m available for walks and drop-ins on weekdays from 7am–4pm and Sundays from 7am–1pm, with flexibility whenever possible to help fit your schedule (I remember how hard it was finding help when I had my pups and ended up taking them to work with me) Whether your pet needs a fun walk, playtime, a potty break, or extra cuddles, I’m always happy to help! We will spend much time out exploring, enjoying fresh air, getting in plenty of movement and mental stimulation. Walks, sniff breaks, and outdoor adventures are very important to me in order to keep a pup happy and healthy! I’d love to be your fur baby’s (and yours!) new friend and help make their day (also yours!😌) a little brighter!✨🐾🩷 Expect lots of cute photos and videos so you can see your fur baby’s enjoying every walk, play session, and cuddle break.📸 Your fur baby's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities — they’ll get plenty of love, cuddles, and care, and will feel right at home!🩷
