House Sitting Prospect

“Ashley was wonderful. We were thankful she was available to do a last minute drop-in. She has also stayed at our house for 11 nights. Our pup is a senior and on multiple meds plus eyedrops and she was able to do it all! It gave us such peace of mind that she’s a professional and has experience. She took great care of our doggie and our home. We’d love to have her again!”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 14, living with them longer. I also currently live on a farm and have good hands when it comes to working with animals! I’m a college student, home for holidays, and sometimes weekends! I have an open schedule most holidays and can come home over a weekend if needed! A safe, leash-controlled environment ensures pets enjoy outdoor activities responsibly, with supervised play, regular walks, and plenty of attention, prioritizing their comfort, health, and safety.

“Luke watched our three dogs while we were away and he was amazing. 10/10 recommend those needing someone to watch their dogs especially during a long vacation, Luke is your person!”

About: I grew up helping my parents in many dog rescue efforts, fostering, shelter volunteering, and our own adoptions! I have owned dogs of all shapes and sizes, with all different kinds of special needs tailored to them. Until recently, I lived in Northern Virginia. There, I worked at the Dogtopia of Springfield as a Canine Coach since July of last year. Here, I have gained a lot of experience in both day and overnight care. Additionally, I became Pet CPR and First Aid Certified. Now that I have moved back home, I am ready to provide my services to my home community! I currently have changing availability, however, any days I could not do will be marked off on my availability calendar. Overall, my schedule is rather open and I would be willing to make arrangements! I will treat your home with upmost respect to ensure the best experience possible! I am here for your pet(s), and this will remain my #1 focus on the job.

About: I’ve taken care of various breeds of dogs for years, i’m also trained to administer medications if need be for your special needs pups. Don’t fret or worry about your pets while on vacation, i will update you with pictures and texts everyday. I myself am a dog mom to five fur kids and understand the want to make sure your pets are in great hands. I currently do dog sitting full time so I will have plenty of time to play, care for, and give potty breaks for your fur kids! I stay in touch with the owner of the pet to ensure safety and trust, I also prefer to have a description of daily care and needs so your pup can keep his/her routine while you are away.

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs and cats my entire life! 🐾 I’m a caring, gentle, and attentive pet sitter who respects each animal’s individual boundaries, personality, and cues. I have experience caring for my mom’s special-needs dog who has seizures, so I’m comfortable providing extra patience and attention when needed. I’m also experienced with cleaning litter boxes and pet messes. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’m passionate about making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care! ❤️ I'm currently working a full-time job but I am off on Fridays and weekends! I am planning on opening up my schedule more in the future but for now Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays I am available ! I have two cats named Grey-bob and sock! I love them so much and they even have their own decorated cat room in my house! A whole room with climbing walls, tons of scratchers and toys! My cat grey bob at night gets sleepy and comes over to me to meow to let me know he's sleepy and wants me to take him to the room where he jumps in his bed and like me to brush him before he closes his eyes and starts purring!

“Tina was wonderful with our puppy. He had never had a pet sitter before, and she took excellent and loving care of him, with lots of play time, exercise, and even some training. He even cried when she left! We will definitely ask her to take care of him again.”

About: What sets me apart is the level of love, patience, and personalized care I give every pet. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable and safe while you’re away. I’m experienced with puppies who need consistency, potty breaks, playtime, and basic routine reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may need a gentler pace, extra patience, medication support, or additional comfort. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents always know their furry family members are happy and well cared for. I’m able to help out on Monday-Friday or Saturdays and Sundays. Let me know what fits your needs and I will be more then happy to accommodate! I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Especially in their own home. I do not accept boarding as my currently home is renting.

About: Hi, I’m the proud pet auntie to all my friends, neighbors, and anyone else who trusts me with their furry family members! 🐾 I’ve been caring for pets—and even looking after homes—while people are away for nearly 20 years. I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s personality, routines, and favorite ways to be spoiled. When you’re away, why not let your pets stay comfortable in the place they know best? I offer loving, dependable in-home pet and house care so your pets can stick to their normal routines while you travel, work, or simply need an extra hand. Think of it as having a trusted pet auntie who treats your home and your animals like her own. ❤️🐶🐱 Let me take the worry out of being away so you can enjoy your time knowing your pets are loved, cared for, and getting plenty of attention! I do work full-time with a very flexible schedule. Two days a week I am teaching at a local university in the evenings. With a flexible schedule I can work from home easily to provide more love and care to your loved ones. I cater to the needs of the pet! Whatever their typical routine is, I try to incorporate that while I am providing care for them in their home.

About: New to Rover, but experienced 5-star house sitters on TrustedHousesitters. My husband Mikhail and I are a married couple based in Charlottesville. I teach high school math online, and Mikhail holds a PhD in Materials Science. We have flexible schedules and spend much of our time at home, which means pets in our care receive plenty of companionship, attention, and consistency throughout the day. Over the past year, we have completed successful house sits in multiple cities, caring for both cats and dogs while homeowners traveled. We have received wonderful reviews for our reliability, communication, and the care we provide to pets and homes. We are happy to share screenshots of our TrustedHousesitters reviews and references. One thing previous hosts often mention is how much attention we give their pets. We genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality and routine. Whether it’s a cat who wants to sit on a lap all afternoon, a playful kitten who wants constant company, or a dog who loves walks and outdoor adventures, we adapt to their needs. We also understand that owners miss their pets while traveling. That’s why we provide regular updates and photos so you can relax and enjoy your trip knowing your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. We treat every home with the same care and respect we would want for our own, and our goal is simple: to make your time away completely worry-free. I teach high school math online and currently have a very flexible schedule, especially during the summer. My husband, Mikhail, is currently focusing on pet sitting full-time. Because of this, there is almost always someone at home to provide companionship, attention, walks, potty breaks, and care throughout the day. We are able to easily accommodate feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication schedules, and other pet-specific needs. Pets in our care are rarely left alone for extended periods of time. For house sitting, we believe pets are happiest when they can stay in their own home and maintain their normal routine. We take the time to learn each pet’s schedule, preferences, and personality so we can provide care that feels familiar and comfortable. We follow feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medication routines, and any special instructions provided by the owner. We spend a lot of time at home, so pets receive plenty of companionship, attention, and supervision throughout the day. We also understand how important communication is while you’re away. We provide regular updates and photos so you can see how your pets are doing and enjoy your trip with peace of mind. In addition to caring for pets, we treat every home with respect and care, keeping it clean, secure, and well maintained while its owners are away.

About: Whether your precious purse pooch needs a structured routine while you’re at work or you have to leave your gigantic baby home while going on vacation, I’ve got you covered! I have 10 years of experience taking care of my own pets (cats and dogs!) and friends and family have trusted me to feed, play, and meet their dogs needs while they’re away. I work part time and am saving up to go back to college in the Fall, so until then my availability is pretty open to help. Whether its early mornings, nights, or weekend stays, I am flexible when it comes to my schedule and value consistent communication when changes come up. I have reliable transportation and can accommodate last minute needs or plan for more structured, longer care. At the moment, I prefer to take care of pets in the comfort of their own home since I don't have a big enough space to invite your pets into. You know your pet best and sticking to what they're familiar with as far as feedings, exercise, and other care is what I will prioritize. My approach is calm, steady, and confident. High energy doesn't overwhelm me and big personalities don't intimidate me. Did you think of your feisty cat with the big attitude just now? Or is your dog sprinting a relay race from room to room as you read this? I would love to meet them! I focus on creating a balanced environment where dogs feel safe, comfortable, and understood.

“James was wonderful. When I returned home all was perfect. He cared for my plants..fountains...fish..outdoor cats and of course my 4 inside dogs. I don't even think they missed me. He won them as well as me over and Im hard to please. Highly recommend!”

“We thoroughly appreciate the care Heather gave our dog while we’re gone. We live far out and have some peculiar rules but Heather was a complete professional. She communicated on a high level and followed everything to a T. Our dog was well cared for and happy upon our return. He has some anxiety and she handled everything professionally and with love. You can tell she enjoys what she does. We will use her again!”

Jennifer D.

“Eleni watched our dogs at the last minute and was readily available for a meet & greet, where our dogs bonded with her instantly. Sent us photo updates & kept good communication throughout our being away. Happy to know we can call in her whenever we need someone to sit our furbabies!”
