House Sitting in Riceville

“We had the absolute best experience with Viridianne looking after our cat while we were away for an extended period of time. Communication was above and beyond, which made us feel so comfortable being away from our cat. She’s dependable and obviously loves animals! We will definitely ask for her services in the future when we are away ☺️”

“All the pets liked Siara. We were happy with everything including the way she left the house. We will definitely ask her to house/pet sit again.”

About: I have taken care of big and small dogs since I can remember. I love meeting new animals and making them feel safe and happy! I am extremely respectful of peoples space and am always early to everything! I have experience giving animals medications as well as dealing with food allergies. I also have experience with senior animals. My parents chihuahua is 20 years old and is also blind/deaf and I am always their first call for a sitter! I have two dogs of my own and they are my babies! I can’t wait to meet yours! I currently work at a Taco Bell as a General Manager. I make my own schedule so I will be able to squeeze in clients last minute! I work 8-10hrs a day so it will be no problem for me to be able to visit with your pups before and after my shifts! I am a master at following directions! I can follow any list of directions you would like followed while i am house sitting/pet sitting! I have experience crating animals & also walking on a leash!

“Sophia is a jewel. She was great with Lovey my mini Sheepadoodle. Lovey’s used to a lot of attention and is a little on the skiddish side. But they did great together. Sophia is responsible and very engaged. I returned home after 5 days and she had gotten my mail, met up a plumber I had to call and most important Lovey was happy . No issues at all. She ate every meal from day one which never happens. I will absolutely be calling Sophia again!!”

“Anna was amazing! Totally responsive (and quick to respond) even from the planning phase, as well as friendly and not just amenable but very positive about my super long shift request from the beginning. She was very communicative about schedule and details about my pup’s care, and even agreed to meet for a video chat to learn further details. Once she was here was EVEN better! My pup took to her immediately, manically excited the second she met Anna, and Anna not only took her craziness in stride, but showed immediate affection: I felt 100% confident that Makkachin would not only be safe and well cared for, bur would have a GREAT time. Anna made sure she knew every detail about Makkachin’s care and house rules before I left, and then gave Makkachin a fun day of walks and hikes, play times, greetings with other dogs, and plenty of couch cuddles. 🥰. On top of that, Anna is a certified dog trainer and has experience working at a doggy daycare as well as with her own dogs. Makkachin absolutely loved and adored her, and I also enjoyed chatting with cool, friendly Anna. I will definitely use her again, and you should too! You’ll be glad that you did. :)”

I have a lot of experience with animals. Growing up my family and I fostered and rehoused dogs all the time so I am pretty knowledgeable about animals and their needs.

About: I grew up on a working farm, so I've cared for all kinds of animals throughout my life. My family and I bred, raised, and sold labrador puppies for many years. Neighbors and friends have also relied on me to feed, walk, and house sit their pets. I am a stay at home mom, so my schedule is flexible allowing me to cater to your timeline. I prefer a week in advance notice, but if you're in need of last-minute care please reach out, I'd love to try and help. I live in a very rural area, perfect for walks and outdoor play with your pet! I have a fenced yard, pet-friendly indoor space, and crates for your fur baby if needed. *Please note* I do have a toddler, so if your pet is not child-friendly, please notify me in advance.

“Nicole was fantastic. She took care of our female Great Pyr wonderfully and we could tell how happy she was when we returned home after four days. Nicole is excellent at communicating and very joyful to interact with. We will be booking Nicole again in the near future.”

“Adelena was wonderful with our furry friends! We were happy with the updates we received while out of town. She even took the dogs for a hike! We would definitely invite Adelena back to our home for pet care.”

“We were Noah’s first official clients on Rover, decided to take a chance with him since he lived closer to our home than other sitters. Overall, Noah was great! He took care of our three dogs and two cats. Dogs seemed to love him and one of our cats was sitting on his lap day one. Our second cat is very skittish and he made sure to keep an eye out for her (she loves to hide from strangers) and kept us updated on when he saw her sneaking around. Her kept the house clean and well-maintained. Messaged us immediately with any concerns about the home, and we were able to fix any problems quickly. Overall Noah seemed like a calm, quiet, and responsible man. We’d be happy to have him watch our home and pets in the future”

About: I have always had a love for animals. I worked in the veterinary field for about 10 years. I have owned animals of my own since I was a small child. I aspire one day to become a certified dog trainer. I have pet sit everything from cats and dogs to goats and sheep. I do work full time but my father lets the dogs out at lunch time. I’m home by 5:30 so if it’s at my house it will be able to play from when I get home until the next morning. If the pet is not staying with me I will go before and after work and stay over if need be. My pets are extremely well cared for. Up to date on all vaccinations and flea medications. They all get plenty of exercise and have free range of the house when someone is home. They sleep in bed with me at night. I have a large fenced in yard for them to play. They are crated when someone is not home for their safety and to keep them out of trouble.

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs for about 5 years. I currently have a 4 year old Aussie border collie mix who has reactivity issues and is very timid so i have taken training classes on how to work with a dog in situations like that. i also grew up in a house with multiple different sizes and breeds of dogs. I work part time at a restaurant in town and have a dog of my own but i do understand what it’s like to need some time away and make sure your pup is in trusted hands. I live on alittle over an acre with a cattle dog who is very high energy. we go on 3 4 mile walks a week and he is able to come and go from the house whenever he pleases. He is crate trained and he is on a strict feeding schedule. I get him groomed once a month and regular vet visits for up to date shots.

“Elinor is a very caring sitter, communicated frequently and proactively, and sent lots of pictures. I recommend her highly.”

About: What sets me apart from all sitters is my deep depth for all animals. As a child, I have always developed a love for animals. My love and compassion for animals spilled over into the education field working with students with special needs. Presently, I have four rescue cats, two classroom guinea pigs, and four dogs, one of which is a rescue. I volunteer with my country's animal shelter, and I have fostered and saved many animals. My love for critters is endless. I am a teacher, so teachers do not work in the summer. However, I do work teaching summer school and a camp in June. I can work evenings and remain overnight. I have the entire month of July off. My children are grown, so my schedule is flexible. I can provide references. I live in a secluded area, so when I am home, they have free range. My dogs are leash trained. During the day when I am home, they remain in a crate. I live six minutes from work, so they arent in their crates all day. My oldest daughter lives with me, so when I am away, they are taken care of.

About: I've had dogs ever since I was little. I have an explosive detection dog, and have experience working dogs. I love all dogs and am looking to get more hands on experience. I am currently just got out of the police academy and am going to be going on FTO. Once there I will be working four on four off, but as of right now I work all week from eight to five. All of my dogs are crate trained and for the most part dog neutral, but I tend to keep them separate for work. They do love playing with each other though.

About: Hello! I have been taking care of pets, my own, for 17 years. I grew up with cats that were my responsibility, and am now a dog owner. I have fostered puppies and currently care for a (near) senior dog. I am pretty flexible with my schedule, and with advanced notice, I can usually meet most requests made. I do take time to travel with my dog on weekends, so I may not be available for weekend boarding. I have a room dedicated as a dog space in my home, and I have the ability to crate dogs as needed. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I have a tie out cord and leash for dogs that need more attention outdoors.

About: I have been a dog owner for as long as I can remember and a cat owner since 2008. I strive to care for any pet just like they were my own. I plan to utilize all of my pet care giving knowledge to ensure that each pet under my care receives the best of my services. If one has a pet that has special needs, such as deafness, then I have experience with caring for special needs pets. I also cared for uncommon pets, such as snakes and cockatiels, and am willing to house sit or pet sit for anyone who are owners of these types of pets. In regards to house sitting, I will be sure to keep each room clean and organized and care for any pets in the house. I work as a dog groomer Tuesday through Saturday, but I am able to take Hamilton with me to work. On the days I'm off, Hamilton and I play fetch, tug, and watch TV. I have a spare crate for any dog to be boarded at my place, and Hamilton loves to play with any dog, cat, or person.
