About: Hi, I'm Sofia. One of my goals in life is to give my dog (ESA) the best life. That means providing enrichment through sniff-walks, exploring new parks, and introducing him to furry pals. We go almost everywhere together, wherever he is allowed - camping, hiking, run clubs. I've used Rover in the past to find dog sitters for my dog, and they have all provided top-notch service. Now, I find myself in a new apartment that is dog friendly and want to host other small, well-mannered, dog and apt-friendly dogs. My dog has some leash reactivity, we are working on it (he was a rescue), but he is super chill once they have been properly introduced in a neutral place. He loves cuddling with his pals, he has predominantly stayed with sitters that have other dogs and it has gone really well. Rest assure, when your furry friend stays with us, we will take him in as one of our furry pals. We do not have a yard, just a small front porch, where my dog loves sunbathing. We have a private entrance. As such, we go on at least 3 walks a day for potty breaks. A good fit would be furry friend that: 1. Gets along with my dog 2. Is potty trained 3. Is up-to-date with vaccinations (e.g. rabies) 4. Is not destructive of property 5. Can stay alone (with my dog) for several hours 6. Is on flea and tick preventative I work from home on Fridays, and can take care of your dog starting at 4pm. Just be sure to pack their favorite stuff and food for drop off at my place. Pick up and drop off time can be flexible I prefer to take care of my furry clients at home. Where i can also have my dog be a friendly companion to your furry friend and we know the neighborhood and the best spots to go on walks.

“Cassandra is fantastic and our boys love her!”

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies, etc. for my neighbors and friends since I was 10 years old. I have taken care of newborn animals and senior animals. I’m currently home for the summer, so I am fully free! I can pop by your house, go on walks, or keep your pet company at home. I will make sure that your pet feels comfortable with me in their home and spend time playing with them or simply keeping them company. I will also love to go on long walks with your dog if requested!

Kindly double check your itinerary/plans and contact us when actually ready meet & greet. Thank you. My husband & I are semiretired professionals who have been raised with pets our entire lives. We are proud to say that we’re experienced, detail oriented, and extremely responsible animal lovers who believe pets are our kids……so much so that our vets said we are one of the best pet owners they’ve encountered and love to be our “kids” in their next lives. 🤣 We are not a typical kennel or boarding club, we focus on attentive quality care, love, mutual respect & positive energy over anything else. As loving pet parents, we understand it’s a huge decision when you have to leave your fur babies in strangers' hands. Rest assured we hold up to our words, we’ll love and care for them just like our own! Our goal is to always put ourselves in your shoes and their paws😆 and provide the best-pampered care for your babies and peace of mind while you’re away. We are perfect for babies with separation anxiety as we are home 24/7. Your fur baby will NEVER be left alone & treated like a number! His/Her safety and comfort are our TOP priorities when staying with us. We promise 😊 We are generally quite flexible with drop off and pick up time. Communication and mutual respect are key factors. Please note daycare is limited to 9 hours only, Our yard is securely fenced, with ample green lawn and play area. There are plenty of outdoor opportunities with not cameras, but actual IN PERSON supervised playtime at ALL TIME to keep your little ones active & happy. The interior is padded with floor mats for comfort, slip & fall prevention (great for senior pups). We also have a separate ground floor guest quarter that’s perfect for cats, rabbits and hamsters who do not wish to interact with dogs as we do have the sweetest senior Shih Tzu rescue, Augustina🐶. She likes all new friends but minds her own business most of the time. Given that said, your babies must be human friendly.😅

About: As a dedicated and experienced pet sitter, I am passionate about providing the best care possible for all types of pups. As a specialized pet sitter for bully breeds and small dogs, I understand the unique needs and quirks of these adorable dogs. With years of experience and a deep love for all things pup, I am committed to providing the highest level of care and attention to your furry friend. Everything from numerous short walks and playtime (temperature permitting) to feeding and medication administration, you can trust me to provide reliable and compassionate care for your dog. I am dedicated to ensuring your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. My home has ramps to access all furniture and gates to prevent pups from running up and down stairs to protect their spines and potential IVDD flare ups. Our morning starts off with a walk around the neighborhood, then it’s breakfast time which means training and play with positive reinforcement! Your pup then has playtime with toys and with my dog Penelope if they are up for it or can snooze away. We then take a quick walk during lunch to stretch our legs and say hi to our friends at Rocky’s. After work we love to be in nature and hit the trails or parks to get some steps in! After dinner I love nothing more than to cuddle with the pups on my couch before bed! We have an outdoor deck that the dogs always have access to. Mostly serves as a sunbathing lounge 😎. The deck is also equipped with grass patches for easy potty breaks. Your pup with have the company of my dog, Penelope. She is a playful and well behaved French bulldog. I have a robust routine for her to keep her healthy and prevent her from being affected from her predisposed IVDD. I can easily incorporate any special needs or request that your day may need.

About: I’ve always loved animals, for their big hearts and one of a kind personality traits. My family had a Rottweiler when I was a child and she always felt like the little sister I never had. My hours are flexible so I’m open to meeting your requirements to watch over your pet. I currently don’t have any pets at the moment, so having the opportunity to cuddle up & spend some time making a new furry friend would be a treat. Overall, I’m very passionate when it comes to the safety & well-being of your pets, so I look forward to providing I am currently a freelance filmmaker, so my schedule is pretty flexible! I’m available for boarding on the weekdays, Saturdays from 10am-4pm and Sundays after 3pm it's important for me to understand the type of pet I'm caring for so that i can gauge what type of activities they're into. I love being outdoors, so if your pet is active then i can take them to some of my favorite hiking trails that are near your home. If they're homebodies then I'll typically play some tug-o-war, or fetch with their favorite toys until they're tired. Then i'll feed them and chill out.

About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was young. Growing up, my family had cats and dogs, and once moving out on my own I adopted a cat of my own. I also have 5 years of experience petsitting both cats and dogs for friends, family, and on the Trusted Housesitters app, where I have a 5 star rating. I’ve cared for households with 3 energetic dogs, reactive dogs, senior cats, kittens, and everything in between. I currently work from home with my adorable cat, Moose, and I would love to help out others in the neighborhood by helping look after their pets while they are at work or on vacation. As someone who loves to travel but has a pet of my own, I know it’s important to find a pet sitter you can trust! As an experienced petsitter on the Trusted Housesitters app, where I take care of animals full-time in my clients’ homes, I am easily able to adapt of the rules and expectations for each individual pet and home. I am caring, responsible, and will leave you home clean and your pet happy!

About: Hello! My name is Mary. I am a lifelong pet owner and animal enthusiast. I grew up on a horse farm with dogs, cats, horses, hamsters, and the odd rogue toad, so caring for animals with love and respect is literally second nature. I'm a somatic embodiment coach by trade, so I have a unique skill set for helping animals feel relaxed and comfortable in my care. I have joyously fostered 20+ dogs and cats in their transition to forever homes, and have extensive experience with house and pet sitting. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds, from 6 pound little weasels to 80 pound gentle giants. I have a special place in my heart for seniors (and have experience caring for them.) I am comfortable and experienced with administering medication. Because I work from home online and over zoom, I can accommodate animals that need a shorter window of alone time. I'd be delighted to treat your fur family with all the love and care I would give my own. I look forward to hearing from you! I have my own online business, so my schedule is very fluid and flexible. I love walking dogs and can easily do day or evening walks and stop-bys. I have experience with staying in many different homes and I know that every animal has its own unique routines, needs and rituals that help it feel in flow. I'm very happy to work with your pet in the way they are used to.

About: I’ve had a German Shepherd of my own, so I know how special our fur babies are. I’ll always treat your dog like one of my own 🐶💕 I’m currently job hunting, so my schedule is wide open! Feel free to reach out anytime for walks or pet care. I’d love to spend time with your pup! I’ll be there to care for your pet as if they were my own. Their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities, so I’ll stay attentive and by their side the entire time. Whether they need playtime, cuddles, or just someone to keep them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away!

“Zihir was trustworthy, prompt, conscientious, proactive, and totally worth it. Our cats were very into their vibe! When we came home they were happy to see us but not anxious at all. Zihir brought in packages for us and offered to take of of other small domestic tasks. They will absolutely be our go to as long as they’re in the game!”
