“We are first time rover customers and couldn’t be happier with our experience! Kaity was excellent and went above and beyond taking excellent care of our two kitties!! It gave us such peace of mind to know that our fur babies were in such good hands!! Kaity’s updates and photos were amazing and very thorough! She even cleaned up a hairball! We would love to have Kaity take care of them again and will recommend her to everyone!!”

About: I have had an immense amount of pets my whole life. I have watched over others pets many times and I hope and can meet some other furry faces! I’m a college student my classes are online so I have a flexible schedule. Full time is difficult with school so this job works out perfectly. Growing up I was surrounded with lots of animals. All of our animals were very well behaved and well taken care of, even our chickens knew some tricks. I have a love for animals and I enjoy working with them.
“Sadey done a great job dropping in to take care of our kitty George for a week while we were away. I definitely recommend Sadey to anyone needing a pet sitter, we received pictures every day making us comfortable that our kitty was well cared for.”
About: I have years of personal experience with numerous breeds of dogs that I have owned. Your fur family member will be in great hands! I also have sat many breeds large and same and have many references. My home is a nice quiet place for senior dogs and dogs with anxiety. I don't have any of my own personal pets and there aren't any small children. I only dog sit for one family at a time so your pet can get his or her own individual care. I also allow pets on furniture and in my bed at night. Each pet gets walked daily along with alot of play time to get rid of all the pent up energy. Lots of love and cuddles also!
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my deep understanding of the importance of routine and exercise for dogs, honed from years of experience with my own pets. My love for the outdoors translates into enjoyable, active walks at parks, ensuring your dog gets the exercise and fresh air they need. Additionally, I have had puppies and old dogs throughout my life and know that not every dog is the same. I had a dog with 3 legs that recently passed and know that patience and learning the dogs personality is important in caring for them successfully. I just finished college in May and worked in Maine all summer at a camp. I’m home now and looking for work. My calendar is open indefinitely until I find another job. I do not have a fenced in yard so I will not be offering in home services. I would be making sure your pet in secure in your home and outside while caring for them. Consistently checking their water and feeding them when they usually do so. Brushing if they require that. Making sure your home is how you left it, respecting your space!
About: I have been taking care of dogs for two years now, from the big and strong pit bulls to the little shih Tzus. I can adapt and learn from any behavioral your pet may have, and work with it. I have been told how my kind actions and words help the experience of a new dog meeting me to open up. I know how to calm aggressive or hyper dogs without need of harsh words or abusive actions. I am completely free to take care of your pet(s), no matter the day or time. I am very flexible, so if you were to have a cancelation I will most likely be able to move around it. As I had said in a previous statement, I have pets of my own! While they are not aggressive, I am not able to keep any other pets at my home. At your home, I will be sure to keep track of your pet(s) at all times, making sure they are safe and comfortable. I will clean up after any messes they make, being sure to leave your place spotless as it had been when I arrived.
About: For visiting you're special fur babies, I am available to provide potty breaks, walks, changing of food and water, exercise, and play time. For overnight care, all of the above is also applied as well as making sure that your animals feel safe and secure while you're away. Updates on your animal can also be given hourly. I have been dog sitting for about seven years, self-employed. I've always loved dog sitting, since I've grown up around dogs my entire life. My late puppy Delilah suffered from epilepsy, so I am experienced with handling seizures as well as providing medication. I am also experienced with elderly dogs, and helping them get around. if you have any more questions please contact me. Nice to meet you! I’m currently a college student so I’m home for a good majority of the week! Most of my coursework is online, which makes me able to have more time to dedicate towards the care for your pets! For home care, I will keep your dogs on a leash outside at all times! I also will make sure that your animals are safe by keeping a close eye on them!
