Pet Sitting Riverview

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I’ve spent years around pups of every size, breed, and personality. I’m comfortable with dogs who are reactive or who love to pull on the leash, and I stay calm, patient, and confident on walks. I’ve cared for friends’ and family members’ dogs for many years, whether that means staying with them while their people travel or stopping by for walks, meals, and some extra love. I know how hard it can be to leave your pup when you’re away, and my goal is to put your mind at ease so you can actually enjoy your time without worrying about how they’re doing. I’m always happy to send photos, videos, or updates whenever you want them. I’m reliable, attentive, and I’ll always put your dog first. I want your pup to feel safe, happy, and genuinely cared for every moment they’re with me. I work fully remote, which means I’m able to hang out with your pup all day and night while you’re away. I’m around for playtime, cuddles, walks, and anything else they need throughout the day. I’m also super flexible with potty breaks and feeding times, so your dog can stay on their normal routine and feel as comfortable as possible. My goal is to make their days feel familiar and happy while giving you total peace of mind. Since I’ll be caring for your pets in your home, I always follow your preferences and routines to keep things feeling familiar and safe for your pup. I’m respectful of whatever rules you have in place, whether that means keeping them off the furniture, crating during certain times, or sticking to specific boundaries. I’m comfortable hanging out with your dog in the living room while I work on my laptop, giving them company and a calm presence throughout the day. If your pup prefers more space or quiet time, I’m just as happy to give them that too. I’m flexible and attentive to what each dog needs, and I do my best to maintain the environment and routine that helps them feel secure and at home. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, relaxed, and understood while you’re away, and to make the experience smooth and stress‑free for everyone.

“Karen did fantastic yet again!! We were gone for over a week and she did drop ins on our 2 kitties. She always sends so many great photos and is so communicative!! A++ and would always recommend. We will continue to use her for all our trips!”

“Lisa has checked in on Riley, 2 month old puppy, while I go into the office. She’s doing 2 visits a day until he’s a bit older. Prompt, communicative, and reliable. Riley likes her and all the belly scratches!”

Heather D.

“I've always had a great experience with Maura. She is punctual and takes care of my cats really well. Both my cats are very comfortable around her (even my introverted and scared cat). I love that she sends a detailed message about the cats along with pictures after every check in.”

About: I love animals but have no fur babies of my own. So I really enjoy showering other people's pets with all the attention and scritches I have to give! I have taken care of all kinds of dogs; from chihuahuas to newfoundlands, puppies to seniors, beautiful mutts to regal standard poodles. I am self employed and typically don't work while I'm pet sitting, which gives me lots of flexibility and frees up my time for your fur babies. I stay with animals in their homes so they feel the most comfortable they can while their people are away. I'm fine with animals sleeping in bed with me if that's what their used to as well.

“Tim has been fantastic with Sofie! He’s great at communicating and sending updates during his drop‑ins. The photos he sends of her looking calm and happy show how much she enjoys spending time with him.”

About: There has never been a time in my life where I have not cared for and lived amongst a menagerie: dogs of all sizes and temperaments, cats, all animals. I love creatures and am confident in their care! I am currently a freelance horticulturist, self-employed. Pet care fits perfectly into my lifestyle. I am always looking for pet snuggles and adventures every day. I would only be available at the moment for care in your home. I am a trustworthy, mature adult that mostly wants to do yoga and read. No parties, no incidents, no stress.

“Alexa did a great a job with my two dogs, they warmed up to her right away - even my usually skittish/suspicious dog. She also explained how the app works, which was really helpful because it was kind of confusing my first time.”

“Ok, I guess I need to finally write a review about how amazing Sarah is!! I found her on here in a panic because I realized my dogs were going tk be alone for 9 hours a day. I was up incredibly early that morning updating my rover account and not sure if she would even take me into her schedule. She messaged me that morning that she would fit my dogs in THAT DAY!! Ever since she has been amazing. Sends me photos of my dogs while they go for a brief walk around the property and playing, let's me know if someone isn't acting right or if something is abnormal. My girls must love her because every photo she sends they are smiling!! She is so sweet to even stoke the fire while she is here to keep the girls warm. I am truly truly blessed to have found Sarah to take care of my fur babies! 100% recommend :)”

“Deanna is a great sitter! She was very easy to work with, flexing work my schedule, and so kind to my pet. She took great care of my pet and communicated with me while I was gone. Will rebook again!”

Lisa C.

“Chris is amazing and we highly recommend her. She came by for a meet and greet, along with multiple drop-ins over 4 days. She’s reliable and wonderfully communicative towards us. More importantly, she took great care with our cats and was able to keep our most anxious one at ease. We would love for Chris to cat sit for us again!”

Christina N.

“Haley is amazing!! She took great care of our cats while we were out of town for an extended period. The house also looked great when we returned home. We are so grateful!”

Maura D.

“Nicole was fantastic for our dog. She was responsive, timely, friendly, and clearly experienced with working with reactive dogs like ours. Nicole did a meet-and-greet so our dog could get to know her before our first time working with Nicole.”

Emily S.

“Emily was great! My dogs loved her (and there’s photographic proof thanks to her check-in pictures.) and I felt good leaving them in her care! She stretched to make my last-minute holiday weekend booking work as well, so appreciated!!! I would definitely book her again!”

Jennifer A.

“This was our first time using Rover and Billy exceeded all expectations! He was so kind and kept us updated the entire time we were out of town. Our dogs loved Billy and he went above and beyond the entire weekend. We will absolutely be using Billy any time we are gone, and referring him to everyone!!”

Katie J.

“This was my second time booking with Allie and she did as great a job as the first time! She’s very communicative and responsive, and my cat seems very comfortable around her.”

Briseida S.

“Ellie was great with Luna!”

About: I have cared for dogs of all sizes and ages, including raising three of my own from puppyhood. I'm comfortable with training needs, exercising pets, administering medication, and the special needs of puppies and seniors. I have extremely high standards for the people I choose to care for my pets, and I hold myself to those standards when caring for others. Leaving your pets doesn't have to be worrisome or stressful when you know they are receiving quality care under a watchful eye. I provide safety and affection for all animals and would be honored to help care for your pets when you have to be away. I am currently going back to school as an online student and have an extremely flexible schedule. I'm available for drop ins, walks, and boarding in my home seven days a week. Drop ins and walks can occur between 6AM- 8PM. When I do drops in and walks at your home, your pet is with me and under my watch the entire time. I am happy to follow any rules you provide. For boarding in my home, I have a fully fenced back yard with a designated dog potty area. Even though the yard is fenced, I supervise all outside breaks to ensure your pet's safety and security. I do have two dogs of my own, both females, and currently only board female dogs. One of my dogs is a 15lb rat terrier mix, and the other is a 70lb lab mix. Both are well socialized with animals and people, and are accustomed to other dogs being in our home. I constantly monitor dog energy levels and body language to ensure breaks are taken when needed and that your pets don't experience overstimulation.

About: I have been around several dogs through my life and I have about 2 years, I have been around and helped take care of 2 Pitbull, a Chihuahua, a golden doodle, and a labradoodle. I will feed, water, and walk you're dogs two to three times per day and hour, as well as playing with you're dogs. One of my family members pets has a fence in yard and I've walked their Labradoodle about two times per day and hour I was at their house.

“Rachael was amazing! She dropped by every day while I was on vacation to feed and play with my dogs, Pickles and Tater Tot. She kept me updated with messages and photos, and I could tell my pups were happy and well cared for. It gave me total peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Highly recommend Rachael—she’s reliable, kind, and clearly loves animals!”
