About: I have been house/pet sitting for a few years now. But aside from that I have a dog and cat of my own! I love hanging out with animals and giving them love and affection.

About: I’ve had animals my whole life! I’ve grown up with cats, dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, and even a pet rat! I love animals and want to spend time with them as much as possible! I believe animals are definitely humans best friend and should be treated accordingly! My experience over the years has taught me how to care for and respect an animal. I also have experience with giving oral medication and providing updates to owners about how their pets are doing while in my care. Pet care is something I’m passionate about because animals give me so much joy and unconditional love! Pet care fits into my open schedule to be able to enjoy taking care of others pets! Caring for someone’s animal is like having another one myself. I do like detailed information about the animal’s likes and dislikes. I also want to make sure that the animal is comfortable with me and that the owner feels good about leaving them in my capable hands!
“Jessica went above & beyond in caring for my fur babies. There was a thunder / lightning storm during one of her visits, and my Sophie is terrified of thunder (and fireworks!) Jessica spent extra care to comfort her, and even came back later in the day to make sure Sophie had been able to calm down. I'm extremely grateful for her care.”

The goal is always to provide loving and informed pet care while making it a fun time for everyone involved :) I’m all for providing care that fits your pet’s specific needs and personality! Specific experience with training puppies and caring for senior dogs in my own home. I work part time remotely with a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a variety of requests!

My experience goes far beyond standard pet sitting; I am the proud parent of a special needs, insulin-dependent fur baby. Because of this, I am completely comfortable and experienced with administering medications, maintaining strict schedules, and monitoring vital health cues. I know how stressful it can be to leave a pet behind—especially one with medical needs—and I promise to bring that exact same level of devotion, vigilance, and love to your home. I look forward to meeting you and taking care of your fur baby like, they are one of my own! I have taken care of pets my entire life, which has given me a deep, lifelong understanding of animal behavior and needs. My experience goes far beyond standard pet sitting; I am the proud parent of a special needs, insulin-dependent fur baby. Because of this, I am completely comfortable and experienced with administering medications, maintaining strict schedules, and monitoring vital health cues. Because I work from home, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, allowing me to offer unmatched attentiveness and flexible scheduling throughout the day. Being steps away at all times means I am always available to maintain strict medication timelines, monitor health cues, and provide companionship whenever it's needed. I know how stressful it can be to leave a pet behind—especially one with medical needs—and I promise to bring that exact same level of devotion, vigilance, and love to your home. I look forward to meeting you and taking care of your fur baby like, they are one of my own! When caring for your pets in their own home, my absolute priority is maintaining their familiar routine, comfort, and security while ensuring they remain safely inside. Because my own fur babies are inside-only apartment pets, I am naturally vigilant about home safety, secure entryways, and preventing any accidental escapes. I focus on replicating their exact daily schedules, from precise feeding and medication times to their preferred play and rest windows. By providing dedicated, one-on-one attention in the environment where they feel most confident, I ensure they receive both the physical care and the comforting companionship they need to feel completely relaxed and happy while you are away.

I have two days of a week, usually one weekend day :) Pets in my own home have their own barn with inside/outside access during the day, but are crated at night. We have five acres and love having playtime outside. I am able to meet most needs for pets.

About: I've been taking care of animals of all shapes and sizes since I was kid. I have professional experience with dog and cat boarding, sitting, walking, grooming, daycare, etc. I love animals and cant wait to meet yours. I work from home as a caretaker so my schedule is extremely flexible and there is always someone home to watch any animals we have visiting. I dont have any animals at home at the moment so there's a clean slate for me to focus on any specialized care your pet may need while in my care.
About: I was born into farming in northern Mississippi. From an early age I have loved being around and enjoyed everything animal. Now my world is, my wife, my kids, and 4 felines that love our 2 chickens. As my kids are becoming adults, I have decided to offer my love and knowledge to keep me busy and allow ALL the other Pet parents some peace of mind, knowing they can take time for themselves and still know someone is lovingly caring for their pets AND property. I take great pride in being able to follow your routine to ensure everyone on the property doesn't receive anything less than what they are accustomed to. Emergency, work,or leisure, you can be assured I'll do everything to ensure the only thing they miss is you! I am a small business owner. I am usually involved in food events most weekends but am able to accommodate stays weekly or as much as a full month with advanced notice. My business is a small family ran one and we tend to cover each other time wise easily so that I can focus on your care. While in your home, we treat it as ours. We do all daily chores as per your request. Recieve and sign for packages, trash and recycle. Mail recovery.
About: I have cared for dogs and cats throughout my lifetime. I am a pet-assisted therapy researcher and truly believe in the mind and body benefits of caring for animals. The human - animal bond is very real and knowing my dog is being cared for by a responsible and caring individual while I am away is so important. Hence, I provide the same excellent care I expect of someone caring for Soley. I am a semi-retired university professor and I walk my dog every day on average 5 miles. I provide clean and caring pet services for family and friends. I have excellent references. I am a neat conscious and very clean person. I believe in providing my pets the same standard of cleanliness as I do myself and other guests. I am mindful of dogs interacting with other dogs and people when walking them. They are always on a leash.
“Mack loved Abby! And bless her for coming to give me a puppy break on such a rainy, cold day. She took Mack for an extended walk and he came back good and tired. Exactly what was needed today!”
“I went out of town for 6 days and Craig was able to walk, feed, and provide companionship for my dog. He was well liked by Obi and when I arrived back he was happy to show me Craig with his tail wagging. Craig provided exactly what Obi needed.”

Joei truly went above and beyond for my pup! There was a mix up on my end where I had my address incorrect, but instead of just canceling, she actually called my emergency contact and figured it out and still got to my dog. I would definitely put my trust in her again. I love people who go above and beyond for my dog.
I can’t say enough good things about Aaron. From the very first visit, it was clear how genuine and attentive he was to Ms Bella. He took the time to understand each of her quirks, her out going and loving personality, and her comfort level. He has treated her with the love and tenderness, I was hoping to find in a dog walker. She looks forward to his weekly visits! I highly recommend Aaron to anyone that is in need of a dog walker. Especially, if you have a disability, as I do, that may force you not to get out as often as your pet needs. He has taken that stress and worry off my shoulders!

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Poulsbo. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
