Dog Sitting in Pocasset

About: I have owned a female Belgian Shepherd mix as a child and she was so intelligent that she won multiple ribbons in local skills competitions. I also owned 2 female Saint Bernards (littermates) who I formally trained as pups. They were extremely sweet and gentle especially with my 3 newborn babies as they came home for the first time. I have done dog walking and sitting for several friends, some who had other animals in the home. I enjoy spending time with animals who give me so much joy. In addition to owning dogs and cats, I have also raised domestic rabbits for 15 years and loved the entire experience of bringing new life into the world. We also have a western hognose snake named Remi and she is really great! My children and many of their friends have enjoyed handling her as she is so calm. Other pets we have had over the years include a bearded dragon named Raja, a rat named Tori and several hamsters and fish. Currently I have an open availability schedule but in future I will have part time jobs that will allow me to fit in pet care when I'm available. I look forward to spending time doing what I love! Currently I have 2 cats and one domestic rabbit Each one gets the best care including feeding, grooming, cleaning litter pans and cages. I would do the same for any clients according to their needs and schedules. Dogs would be walked and played with throughout the day or time of care. The home environment is safe and conducive to accommodating animals.

“Cecilia was great! She was reliable, responsive and gave me daily updates, including pictures. My cat seemed to enjoy her visits and was relaxed and happy when we got home. We will definitely request her again.”

“Katie was wonderful. She visited Wally at the requested times. She played with him and definitely spent time keeping him company when we weren't there. And, the texts with pictures were so cute and gave us the peace of mind that Wally was being well cared for. We would use her again when we go away.”

About: I am new to Rover but have been working professionally as a part-time dog walker and pet sitter (cats and dogs) for a top-rate company for the last year and a half. I love it! Additionally, I am the proud owner of two German shepherds and have had shepherds continuously since 2007, including a retired police dog. Our current shepherds, Fritz and Petra, train in obedience, tracking and protection. While I do not offer dog training, you might be interested to know that my own dog is trained daily. I am familiar with English, German, and hand signal commands. Cats: I was brought up with Siamese cats and had a series of Siamese until recently. I also care for cats as a pet sitter. I am well versed in cats’ needs. I work part-time three days per week and have a pretty flexible schedule. This allows me plenty of time to take care of your pet. I currently do not offer care in my home, but I am happy to care for your pet(s) on their home turf following your guidelines. Think of me as your surrogate. I focus on safety first. Depending on your needs and requests, I offer on-leash walks in the neighborhood, indoor or outdoor off-leash play (at your fenced in yard with your toys) in all weather, feed your pet, refresh water bowls, scoop litter boxes, and provide relief opportunities. An overnight service includes dinner preparation, exercise, play and TLC.

About: I strictly follow your dog’s personal and walking routines to prevent any anxiety, while sending frequent photo updates so you can travel completely worry free. Working from home allows me to easily blend my day with your dog’s needs, offering frequent play and potty breaks and endless cuddles while working. By staying at your place, I minimize your dog’s anxiety. I provide dedicated overnight care, plenty of playtime, and frequent updates so you feel connected.

“Julie, did a drop in visit for my mini poodle. She is sweet and flexible. I feel fortunate that I can trust her with my dog. I will continue to call upon Julie when I need help with my dog.”

About: Animals have always been part of my life. When I was younger I had a Yorkshire Terrier, I had to look after her every day, and when she had puppies I cared for them until they grew up. I currently have a Boston Terrier and an Australian Shepherd but they live in my Guatemala home, I used to take them for walks in the park and often to the beach or to volcanoes. When I was living in Guatemala I helped take care of a blind dog by assisting with the food, walks, and by watching him. I have taken care many times of my friend's dogs, I play with them and take them for walks. I love dogs and all kinds of animals, I would love to take care of your pet!

I will follow your instructions and make sure your pet is happy and well taken care of while you are away. In addition, I will send you lots of pictures and give you regular updates. I am currently available for daily walks and overnight pet sitting. My schedule is wide open and I would love to care for your pets! When you travel, keep your pets in the comfort of their own home. You can be assured that your pet is fed, relieved, exercised and loved while you are away. In addition to caring for your pet(s), I will ensure that your mail and packages are brought in, adjust lights and blinds, water plants, retrieve garbage cans and look after what you need while gone. I also offer daily walks and quick bathroom relief visits, and any medications administration if needed. Also if your dog/ cat likes to get brushed, their paws moisturized, I would be happy to give them a luxurious SPAW treatment. I am cetrified in pets first aid and CPR training, so you can rely on my expertly care for your fur babies.

“We’ve had such a wonderful experience with Alexa! Not only are the walks consistent and reliable, but the house visits have been an absolute game-changer. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing our dog is being cared for in a familiar environment while we’re away. If you’re looking for someone dependable, caring, and attentive to both your pet and your home, I highly recommend her. We couldn’t be happier!”

About: I’ve had dog(s) since before I was born and I try to make sure that they receive adequate back rubs, treats, and outfits in addition to their basic care. As a kid I watched many neighbors dogs while they were on vacation and I am always the first one to fill a food or water bowl At this time I have a wide range of availability to care for dogs in my schedule. I am open to different care options to best meet the dog’s needs I have a fenced in area where my three dogs are able to let themselves in and out via doggy door. They can have as much food as they want as they are feeder fed.

“Emma is fantastic! On very short notice, Emma agreed to do drop in visits with my two Golden’s in the very early morning and at night. The pups look so happy to see her in every picture on their report card. Thank you Emma!”

About: I love all kinds of pets and am local to cape cod. I am an engineer in Falmouth and would love to watch your pets while you are away. I have had dogs for 15 years and have watched cats for weeks at a time. I work in falmouth so I can come home on lunch breaks and stay full time other than that. I normally walk dogs in the morning before work and on lunch breaks, then take them to the park after work. I will work with pet parents to come up with a plan that works for each pet! I have a big house and a nice big yard. I live near a big field and the beach they can go to as long as its not the high tourist season.

About: I have many years of pet sitting experience as well as three dogs myself. I am training my second service dog (who will not accompany me while I work… don’t worry!) as well as dabbling in the AKC show and sport world. and this summer I will be enrolling in a vet assistant certification program! I have both owned and cared for every size, from XL to XS. truly nothing scares me… medical needs, reactivity, a pet who needs some extra time and care to adjust, or your average golden who loves everyone! There are very few pets i am not comfortable with… and I prioritize honesty and safety above all else. early mornings and late nights work best for me! I am free most weekends and will always try and be as flexible and honest as possible. In a clients home, I will always ask as many questions as needed to familiarize myself with the environment and your pets favorite play, sleep, and hiding spots. an emergency plan is something i always love to establish, and I am never scared to send a quick text to clarify something!

About: As a life long owner of cats and dogs, I understand that finding care for your precious family member is a difficult choice. When I meet any animal I move at their pace, understanding that all animals have different personalities and needs. I love to be outside with my own dogs and cuddling inside with my cats, so giving yours the same love and care will be an easy task. I’m currently working on a start-up project at home so my time is flexible. Regular care, or just a one time visit, I’m happy to work with you on your schedule. I am a pet owner myself and care about mine like they’re my children. Any medication needs or special assistance your pet requires is never too much for me to accommodate.

“Nikki was fantastic! Highly recommend.”

About: I went to Upper Cape Cod Regional Technical School in Massachusetts in the Veterinary Sciences shop. I now go to the University of New Hampshire and I’m studying Veterinary Technology. I have worked at a doggy daycare and I currently work at a canine physical therapy facility. I love all animals. I know how to give medications, understand body language, and I know canine cpr. I go to UNH to become a vet tech. I have two dogs of my own. I work with dogs at school and at home when I am doing physical therapy work. I also love cats and understand their basic body language. I have done dog sitting before and I keep their house very clean and make sure the dog is comfortable while I’m there. In my own home I’m always sure that my dogs have everything they need and they’re always happy!
