Pet Sitting in Rhodes

About: My pets are indoors AND outside because I have safe, pet friendly, separated or joined, sheltered, natural areas where we can all unwind on my seven acres. I'm a retiree who devotes all my time to my grandkids, animals and hobbies. Your pets' needs are provided for at all times whether they are here for a day, week or month as they are included in our family activities. Pets are kept separated or allowed to play together depending on their needs. I provide crates, mats, kennels and even my bed for peaceful sleeping.

“Amy accepted a last minute drop in request and spent extra time with our pups at her own discretion. She truly loves and cares for them, and we appreciate her so much! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing sitter!”

About: I have had pets in my life since the day I was born. I got my first cat when I was 3 and have had many more since then. :) Caring for my pets has become something that I have worked on and improved over the years - and I love meeting new pets! I own my own business that is run from my home and a downtown location - just three blocks from my home. :) My husband runs our household and is home or helping me daily. We have a fenced in yard that is big enough for the dogs to run laps - and three other dogs who adapt well to having friends over. :)

“Jessica was great she gave awesome updates and had my dog who is terrified of everything warming up to her. I’d highly recommend!”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the combination of genuine love for animals and the space I can provide for them to truly thrive. Anyone that knows me knows my absolute love for dogs of all types. Living on several acres gives dogs plenty of room to safely run, play, and explore, which keeps them happy and active during their stay. We have great indoor and outdoor room, with things like a doggy pool to stay cool in the summer and a large heated shop to run around in in the winter! I have experience caring for pets of all ages—from the extra patience and guidance needed for puppies to the gentle, attentive support required for senior dogs. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, giving medications if needed, and providing both exercise and comfort. I have personal experience with caring for dogs with special needs. Above all, I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away. My motto is that the pets come first in my schedule. Saying no to a dinner invitation because my husband is out of town and the dogs need walked? I do it all the time. My day starts with a long walk for my dogs and extra playtime to ensure their energy is at a good level before I go to work. Our evenings are spent outdoors with the dogs right along with us. The weekends are full days of outdoor time and extra enrichment for the dogs in our care. Safety and trust are always my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, dogs enjoy plenty of space to play and explore on our acres of land, all while being supervised to ensure they stay safe. I have two super-friendly dogs of my own who love having new playmates, and I can also crate your dog if that’s part of their routine or helps them feel secure. Inside, I keep a clean, comfortable environment where pets can relax and feel at home. Whether I’m hosting in my house or caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely, from feeding schedules to walks and medication needs. My goal is to provide peace of mind for pet parents by creating a safe, loving, and structured environment for every furry guest.

“Roswell is always so communicative and takes such great care of our puppies. We’re so grateful that we can go away with the peace of mind that our dogs are in great hands. We highly recommend Roswell!”

“Angie is the best! She has done drop in visits for my two cats numerous times - most recently for 14 days while I was gone in a trip. When I got home my cats were calm and relaxed as if I hadn't been gone at all. Angie is very kind and well qualified to watch pets, she also brings in my mail and feeds the birds for me... I highly recommend her!!”

Jan C.

“She did a very great job taking care of my babies. She actually made another visit in between times so they wasn't inside to long. Highly recommend her. I'd definitely have her do it again if she is available. Great job”

I have fostered and boarded a variety of dog breeds and cats, and I currently have a dog and 4 kittens - so you can trust your pet will be in great hands!

“Claire was wonderful with our fur babies. She sent photos to keep us updated and worked to make friends with our smallest one who was shy. So appreciate Claire and her help.”

“She did a wonderful job caring for my sick and yet very energetic husky. Super nice woman and a very good caretaker. My husky threw a temper tantrum when she saw me walk through the front door instead of Farra 😂”

About: I have lots of experience working with dogs with Thyroid disorders, joint problems, hip problems, diabetes, and special diets. I'm very flexible. All you have to do is ask and we'll see.

I wanted to be a veterinarian or veterinary assistant but I didn't quite have the grades for it so that's why I decided to become a dog sitter, a dog walker, pet care taker, dog lover, and pet lover. I will take the best care of your pet and love it like my very own. Hope to hear from you soon. I'm available for house sitting on weekends and some week nights just ask me.
