House Sitting in Peacham

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. I value the love you give to your babies, so I strive to do the same! I have taken care of a variety of animals and care for them as my own. I am experienced in administer medication and maintain a similar schedule to what you have. Research shows animals have less anxiety staying in their environment when owners are away. I strive to maintain that when you’re gone I work from home part of the time and travel the NEK the other part. I’m a social worker for my regular job but I am flexible with my schedule. I have days off on Sundays and Mondays to help with that. I follow as close to their normal schedule as you do. It helps with their anxiety and transition. If you walk them in the mornings, I will do the same. I prefer to watch animals in their home to make them more comfortable.

“Olivia was the perfect choice for our Frenchie Belle. We were able to enjoy our trip and not have to worry about anything at home while we were away.”

About: I have experience with dogs and cats. My family had mini horses for 18 years, have had dogs for the entirety of my life, and have had cats off and on. I am a massive animal lover and treat them as the treasured member of the family that they are. I work on a hybrid schedule, with days at home and in the office. I can watch your pets during the week as long as they can be ok during the day! I like to follow your pet’s normal routine if possible, so please let me know what that is! I want to make the visit as comfortable as possible.

“Anna was great!! Our dog seemed comfortable with Anna and Starbuck from the onset! Pictures showed a happy dog and the house looked great when we got home. Looking forward to having Anna and Starbuck here for another stay!!”

“Gemma did a great job taking care of our dogs and cats. They seemed disappointed when we got home, I think they were hoping for Gemma.”

About: As a former medical coordinator in mental health, busy coffee shop manager, mother to two adult boys and companion of a 14 year old dog, I can promise you your pet and home will be in loving hands. I have taken care of multiple friends pets over the years including one dog that was blind and another who had diabetes. You can be assured your pet will be taken care of with love and patience. My pup will stay home with his older brother while I pet sit. I do work 40 hours a week at a coffee shop in Waterbury, VT. If local, I can adjust my schedule as needed but will need a couple days where I will be gone about 8 hours or so. Love going for long walks in the morning and afternoon. In addition to loving going for walks, I've been able to follow specific requests that are more personalized for the pet and the homeowner. Whether that be specific times for walks, medications or unusual feeding routines I've got you covered.

“Linda was amazing. She kept our fur babies company while we were away and we were able to relax knowing they were in good hands.”

“Elise is perfect! Sweet dog loving person with a great personality. We appreciate that she was very patient and kind to our pups . Thank you so much Elise!”

“Maria has taken care of our sassy 20-year-old cat Pippi more than once. Maria is very communicative, always sends photos with feedback, and is gracious enough to cater to the idiosyncratic habits of our very senior kitty.”

“Nikki was awesome to work with! During our meet and greet, she took notes. During the overnight, she sent lots of photos and updates. This really put my mind at ease! 10/10 would recommend!”

About: I promise to keep your fur baby safe and happy as can be while you're away. I will provide playtime, walks, cuddles and a lot of attention. I am very interactive and not afraid to be goofy in order to make a genuine connection with your pet. Don't be afraid to leave me detailed instructions- I get it and have fur and feathered babies of my own! I am able to walk up to 2 to 3 big dogs at a time and feel confident in my abilities to give commands and appropriate rewards/disciplines. If your pet(s) gets dirty, I will bathe them as well as clean up any messes that occur. I also will keep your home sweet home neat and tidy so you never come home to a mess. I have grown up with pets and have always owned one or two.. okay, maybe 3 at a time. I make genuine connections with animals (wild ones, too) and would love to give them the opportunity to get outside all season long (even in the winter). If your pet would like an adventure buddy and companion who will distract them from your absence then give me a shout. Feel free to contact me with questions and concerns. I would be more than happy to chat with you!

About: I have taken care of my family and friend’s dogs for years. I just found out about Rover from a friend who’s been on Rover for some time and she’s told me just how fun and rewarding it is, so I am giving it a go! I have a Yellow Lab of my own “Jader” who loves going for hikes and swimming in my pond. Currently I am very flexible and would be able to provide walks, pet sitting, and potentially be willing to board on a case by case basis. I look forward to where this Rover journey takes me! At the time I am in flight school which is part time and I have quite a bit of flexibility. So days and evenings are doable. I live on a 100 acre horse farm at the end of quiet dirt road so there is very little traffic. When you come by for the first time you will think this is doggy heaven. My Lab Jader is very easy going and gets along with most dogs. Of course before entertaining any boarding I would have to see how Jader gets along with your dog. Other than that I am used to walking and hiking in public areas so walking the rec path or going up the Pinnacle would not be an issue.

About: We are Isa and Billy - newly weds living in Hershey who love adventures! We had dogs and cats in our lives since about 5 years old! We both grew up with multiple dogs (mostly labs) we now have a rescue of our own named Calla! She is a love bug who just wants to play and cuddle! We love training dogs and teaching them new tricks, we have experience with puppies and dogs in heat. If you want a loving couple who works from home to be with your pet while you are away, we are happy to help and take them on adventures! We go on dog walks 2-3 times per day, we also go for hikes or kayak rides on the weekends. We love taking our pup to the dog park too (only during off hours when there are max 2-3 dogs in the park) We have loads of beds and toys for pups to play with and be cozy in! We can feed and provide treats as often as you’d like since we work from home. We can provide baths, take dogs on runs, go swimming, etc! We have backgrounds in healthcare and can help with medicine administration and other medical pet needs.

“Kathy was very accommodating and took great care of our pups. It was nice to come home to happy, healthy animals! Thank you, Kathy!”
