About: Hi 👋🏻 I’m Claudia, 25, and I’ve had pets since I was a child, from tiny Chihuahuas to big Labradors. I work from home, so my schedule is flexible and your pet always has company, walks, playtime, and cuddles! I love sending updates and pics so you can see your pet happy and safe. Since I work from home, I’m very flexible. Whether it’s drop-ins, walks, or hanging out, your pet gets all the attention and company they need. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities! Pets get a cozy space to relax while I supervise everything. If I’m at your place, I stick to your rules and routine so your pet feels safe, happy, and stress-free.
About: I create a calm, safe, and cozy environment. I keep a routine, offer plenty of comfort, and make sure anxious or shy pups or kitties feel comfortable. I currently work from home and have plenty of time to provide top notch care to your fur babies! I am available any time! Weekdays or weekends, day or nights! I have a fenced in clean cut yard and small playful older dogs and a couple of curious cats. My home is full of love!
About: I've been a dog owner for 15 years now and there is nothing more that I love to spend time on than taking them on walking and hiking adventures all around the town and surrounding areas. And I would love to do the same with your dogs if you give me that opportunity. Your dogs will create a new space in my heart and together we will create some fun and healthy adventures with all the joy and sweetness that your dog deserves. I will be available full time at anytime of the day 7 days a week. Dogs are my life and I went to make this job my life as well. I will give every possible effort to be the best care taker for your beloved dog. Dogs are my world and I will care for your dogs as if they were my world with utmost love and sweetness and with the highest degree of kindness.

“Nathalie did a wonderful job taking care of my Forrest. She stayed with him 2 days and communicated regularly with me through messages and pictures. it was my first time using a sitter and it was short notice but she made it all stress free. Thank you Nathalie!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with two cats of my own and years of experience caring for both cats and dogs. I’ve had several pets throughout my life, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs. I work in healthcare. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate multiple visits as requested to fit the needs for your pet. I have weekends off. I care for my pets as they are needed. Whether it's cuddles, mealtime, bath time, cleaning an accident etc, I do what is needed for the well-being of the pet and to ensure the home is clean.
“Megan was an ideal house sitter. She followed all instructions for my slightly high maintenance reactive girl, was communicative, and left the house better than she found it. Will definitely book again!”

About: I’ve recently decided to do this full-time while pursuing a masters soon, so I’m home all day to give your babies the attention they need here or at your place!!! Unlike a lot of sitters in the area, I have a large, open concept house that’s not cluttered & very dog friendly. I also have a 0.3 acre fenced in backyard that’s well maintained & tidy that the dogs can play in (see safety, trust & environment section). I also love to do walks & drop in visits & play with your furry pets. I do this to keep myself from rescuing more animals from the shelters since I’ve already got 5 of my own 😋 I’ve grown up my entire life with all kinds of pets from cats & dogs to birds and farm animals. I used to work at an exotic animal sanctuary but now only volunteer there where animal behavior and safety are key. All throughout high school and college, I shadowed small animal veterinarians and became a veterinary technician for a while before chasing my dream of working with exotic animals. Over the years, I’ve trained puppies and also offered palliative care to older dogs who weren’t able to get around or who have recently had surgery. I can handle a dog of any age and health. I've adminstered medications, given shots, taken out stitches, done general grooming, and taken care of our neighbors' and friend's animals. I’ve taken care of a couple dogs who were blind &/or deaf in a clinical setting. Animals are my passion, and I will treat your babies like my own. I am home all week & available to play with, love on, & let the dogs out whenever they need to go. I still go to the exotic animal sanctuary occasionally to volunteer, but my schedule can be planned around the animals staying with me. They will be my priority and have my attention. My end goal is to have my own animal rescue with dogs, goats, horses, & maybe some other animals once I’m able to buy a farm. I am an animal person through & through. I’ve only ever met one dog in my 30yrs of life who didn’t like me 😋 The first thing I do in the morning is take care of my animals. The dogs get fed once a day & let outside any time they want to go. The youngest dog uses a potty bell, so he lets us know when we needs to go out. As far as their day to day goes, they stay out of their crates unless we’re both out of the house for a really long time & just get to play or lay around all day. The oldest has crate anxiety, so he is never crated & always freely roams the house. We have a surplus of toys for them to play with and a huge fenced in backyard (~0.4 acres of just yard) for them to play in. There is a pool in my backyard, so I always stay outside with them when I have Rover clients to make sure no one jumps in (although I do allow swimming if client is okay with it; have life vests & a smaller doggie pool). The house can also be sectioned off to restrict access or separate animals, for their comfort (ie stress, nap time, feeding times), as it is almost 2700 sq ft. I don’t crate animals unless instructed by the owner to do so. Plenty of updates will be sent(:
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs and cats! I have been hired for 3 cat sitting gigs and I watch dogs for some of my neighbors. I feed them, play with them, take them for walks. I am willing to host pets at my house too. I have done this before for cats. I currently am a college student who takes classes online. I work from 3-6 every day and the rest of the time I am free for all of your pet care needs. I have a fenced yard with .75 of an acre of space to play! I have a sweet German Shorthair Pointer who loves to play with other dogs.
“Mizhael did a great job dog sitting for us! She stayed in our home for nine days and not only gave our dog lots of love and attention but also watered plants, took out the garbage and collected mail. She left the house sparkling clean and my dog happy.”
“Kathy watched our 2 dogs over the Labor Day weekend and did a Great Job ! She did House sitting for us so we not only didn't have to worry about the dogs, but the house too. She proved to be dependable and gave us great feedback the whole time we were out of town. Gave us real peace of mind. I have no reservations recommending Kathy H and hope to see her again when we plan our next trip. : )”

About: Every pet is unique, so I tailor my approach to their specific needs, personality, and routine. From high-energy dogs needing long walks to shy cats requiring quiet playtime, I adapt to keep them comfortable and happy. I’m currently available Monday - Friday 11AM-8PM&I am a part time student weeks days I am available after 4pm weekends I am available Saturdays only from 9am-3pm or midnights if needed. I live in an apartment. The apartment itself has a dog park and as well live close by another dog park I love taking them to get pup cups or just in general taking them to cruise.
“Logan was wonderful! She took such good care of my dogs and kept me updated the whole time. She’s kind, dependable, and someone you can trust with your pets. I’ll definitely be asking her to sit again! Thanks, Logan!”

About: I am currently a dog dad to 1, but have 8 more at home of all breeds, energy levels, and sizes; so I am very well equipped and knowledgeable in pet care. I am an animal lover and enjoy spending time playing with and tending to all types of animals. I currently work from 8am to 5pm, Monday through Friday. So I am available before and after those times and fully available on the weekends. I typically spend 1 hour (minimum) with the pet in the morning and 1 hour (minimum) in the evening with overnight stays as needed. I am ready to adhere to any rules or needs for all pets. Whether I let the dog out to pee and spend the rest of the time with them sitting on my lap, leaving a door open for timid dogs to cross whenever they like, or spending time playing fetch or other activities outside.
