Dog Sitting in Roca

“Rachael is outstanding! I’m so happy we found her on Rover. She’s so good with our pets! She always prompt with their meals and sends us pictures daily. We get an update on each one individually so we know how they’re doing while we’re away. Five stars aren’t enough!! 😻”

About: Although I don't have a dog of my own, pets have always been a part of my life! My childhood best friend has two golden retrievers, so growing up we spent countless hours taking them out for playtime and keeping them occupied. My sister adopted an adorable golden doodle two summers ago, and our house is like his second home because of how often he loves to visit. Any of my friends can count on me asking "Where's the dog?" whenever I come over, because I just gravitate to having a furry friend by my side! I specialize in discovering all of your pets' silly quirks that make them unique and working with them from there. I also specialize in working with hyper-active pets, being able to expend their energy in a healthy way and calm them down. I adapt well between large and small animals, handling them each with the proper care/delicacy they need. I have a lot of free time to fill this summer, so my general availability will always be open. I am mainly open to Doggy Day Care, House Sitting, and Dog Walking, but am also interested in Boarding! My daily availability is the most open in the mornings and afternoons, so if you leave home early for a job or a trip I'll be right here to step in. Weekends are also free to Board! I have a large yard with plenty of room for your dog to get out their zoomies! There are also two parks in walking distance from my house, so I have plenty of access to the outdoors. My sister has a mini golden doodle who visits all the time, so I can always set up play dates to give your pet a furry friend. I can administer any medication your dog has need of if I have instructions, and will send as many updates as needed so you know they're in good hands! Relaxation time is always great to have, but I will make sure your pet has a good variation of activities so they are never bored. If I am aware of any triggers your pets has, I will provide a safe environment, whether in your home or mine, so I can always keep them stress-free.

“Isla is great with my boys! I have one dog that is very timid with new people, and she took the time to make him comfortable!”

About: I’ve always had dogs in my life ever since I was born. They have always been a top priority to me and I couldn’t imagine life without them, and I’m so glad to help take care of others. The more the merrier! I could help any day of the week, anytime! I’m currently unemployed, and will start college in mid August, so then I will only be available on weekends from August thru May. I give one on one attention to every dog I meet, and I truly believe all deserve a safe environment. I have a very good emotional sense of what dogs are feeling, whether that be a potty break or needing more attention or playing!

About: I have experience with many different breeds, including reactive dogs and aggressive breeds. I have patience and understanding for every dog and their unique routines and behaviors. I have been pet sitting for friends and family since I was able to drive and I will provide an informed and easy going experience for your dog sitting needs as well. I’m currently working full time Monday through Thursday and I am available to pet sit extended time periods as well as short. Aside from having my weekends free to care for your fur baby I am also available to provide morning, noon, and evening walks and playtime sessions. Rest assured that when you’re gone your fur baby is receiving my full attention. I live in an apartment that is close to a walking and bike bath. My personal preference is taking the 10 minute drive to Holmes Lake and going for walks around that area.

About: I have at least 10 years of experience working with all kinds of animals ranging from normal pets to farm animals. I have experience working with senior dogs and dogs with disabilities. I have one year of schooling at Southeast Community College for livestock management, I have much experience in knowing how to work with animals. If you would like to know more about my experiences please feel free to message me! My Schedule isn't consistent, only reason being I am an in home and move out cleaner. For the most part my schedule is mostly open throughout the work week except for Mondays,Thursdays and Fridays depending on the week. These are days I typically do my in home cleanings. If you would like to know more about my schedule please feel free the message me! I know for myself as a pet owner of a dog, you have to feed and keep fresh water out for the dog. Along with being attentive to knowing when to let them out. My dog loves long walks so we walk a lot! As I am a house cleaner, some of my clientele have dogs. Sometimes the client may ask you to let the dogs out for them while they are out.

About: Hello fellow animal lovers! There's nothing quite like the unconditional love and joy they bring into our lives, and getting to care for them is something I treasure. With over 10 years of hands-on experience in extended overnight pet care, I bring a level of dedication and reliability that goes beyond the basics. My background in pediatrics and childcare has given me transferable skills in patience, attentiveness, and routine-building, all of which translate seamlessly into providing exceptional care for your pets. I am comfortable with animals of all sizes and temperaments, and I have experience handling complex medical needs including administering medication, applying topical treatments, and accommodating specialized dietary requirements. Whether you have a curious puppy, a playful kitten, or a senior pet with unique needs, I approach every animal with patience and genuine love. When I house-sit, I treat your home with the same respect I'd want for my own. I'll handle day-to-day household tasks such as collecting mail and packages, taking out the trash, and keeping things tidy so you return to a clean, welcoming home, and happy, well cared for pets. I welcome last-minute and short-notice bookings, as I understand life doesn't always go as planned, and I'm happy to step in whenever you need me. I follow your instructions closely and will always go above and beyond to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and right at home. At the end of the day, I'm not just a sitter, I'm someone who will love your pets like my own, and that's a promise. While I work a standard 8-4 weekday schedule, my schedule is designed to give your pet consistent attention throughout the day. During the week, I'm available for walks and check-ins in the early morning before work, over my lunch break, and in the evenings. For overnight stays, I'm fully available on weekdays as well — just keep in mind I'll be away from 8–4, with a check-in over lunch. Weekends are completely open, giving me full flexibility for longer visits, overnights, or anything else your pet needs. Whether I'm house-sitting, walking your dog, or stopping in for a check-in, your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priority. I treat every client's home with the utmost respect. I'm there to care for your pet and maintain your space, not disrupt it. During house-sitting stays, I follow your established routines as closely as possible to keep your pet feeling secure and at ease in their own environment. I'll ensure doors, gates, and any containment areas are secure at all times, and I always keep emergency contact information and your vet's details on hand should anything come up. For dog walks, I keep dogs leashed and under close supervision at all times, paying attention to their comfort level and energy throughout the walk. I never push a dog beyond what they're comfortable with and always make sure they're safely returned home before I leave. For in-home check-ins, I make sure your pet has fresh water, food per your instructions, and plenty of attention before I go. I'll always leave your home exactly as I found it and provide updates so you have peace of mind while you're away. I do not offer boarding in my own home, so your pet gets the benefit of staying in the comfort of their own familiar environment — which is often the least stressful option for them.

I also can accommodate animals to their needs if they need medicine or special assistance. I work from home for an agency based in Los Angeles. This means that your animal wouldn’t need to be locked up all day if they stay at my house my flexible schedule also also allows me to add walks in the day and play time so your dog isn’t in a crate all day.

I also wouldn’t mind going to someone’s house if I needed to as well as I am mobile.

About: I have had pets my entire life, I grew up on a farm. I also volunteered at an animal shelter in my hometown so I’m very comfortable around all breeds of dogs and cats. Now that I’m in college I miss my pets and would love to befriend yours! Growing up on a farm made it challenging to go away on family trips because we could never find anyone to help us with our pets, so I want to be able to offer that to others. I am a trustworthy, timely, and kind person who will have it be my #1 goal to ensure your pets are loved and cared for to your standards. I am full time student Monday- Friday until 5 and every other Saturday until 3. I can do nights any day except tuesday, and anytime Sunday, Monday, and every other Saturday! I can feed/ water them. Keep them entertained for a while. I also think a walk is essential for dogs so I can definitely take them on a walk! I do drop ins so whatever you need me to do I will do!

About: I have worked with all types of pets throughout my entire life! I have worked with everything from cats and dogs, to snakes and parakeets! I am home for the summer and have a part time job that I will do my absolute best to work around! Let me know what times and days work best for you, and I will do what I can to adjust accordingly! My #1 goal is to ensure that the pet is happy and healthy when I am in it's care! I understand that new people can be frightening or scary to a companion animal. My job is to take my time to get to know these pets and make their time with me enjoyable and comfortable!

About: I live in a wonderful, quiet neighborhood that allows us to go on long, quiet walks. In addition, to walks we can play outside in our fenced yard, playing catch or fetching the ball or just lying in the sun enjoying ourselves. If you dog is older and just likes to have a relaxing day on the couch we can do that too. What ever you prefer your dog to do, I can give them. Their preferred schedules will be maintained for them and make sure that your dog gets extra love while you are gone. I am able to host any size dog for you and trust me they will feel as if they are a part of the family as well. Can't wait to meet you and your dog.

“Roger did a great job taking care of my dog and cat. My dog got an eye infection right before my trip and Roger had no trouble giving eye drops to my dog as well as taking him for walks and picking up my plant that got knocked over in a storm! I highly recommend Roger to anyone who needs a pet sitter!”

About: As someone who works in the pet care industry and has three dogs of my own, caring for animals is a huge part of my life. I have experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments, from high-energy puppies to senior dogs needing extra comfort and attention, and I always strive to make pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I work full time in the pet care industry, so caring for animals is already a big part of my daily life! With at least a week’s notice, I’m able to make my schedule flexible to best meet the needs of your pet and maintain their normal routine as much as possible. I currently offer care within my client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I know how important consistency can be for animals, especially for shy pets, seniors, or pets who may become stressed in new environments. I always take time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, personality, and comfort needs to help them feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind during visits.

“Ashley is lovely! She is punctual, respectful, friendly, & absolutely loves our pup! She has done everything we’ve asked of her and is very helpful. Highly recommend her 😊”

I’ve pet sat for numerous friends, family, and neighbours and I love caring for their pets as if they were my own! I am available all hours of the weekends, as well as Wednesday- Friday! I do work part time hours on Monday and Tuesday but am willing to work around that! I am willing to walk or play with your doggo outside anytime I notice they might need some fun! I also can bring my own cat toys as needed to help your kitty with their hunting inclinations.

“Maria was amazing with our pets! She was so patient with our shy cat, and went above and beyond to make sure he was taken care of after his automatic feeder had issues while we were out of town. She even made sure to feed and check in on our fish and turtle. We received updates and pictures after each visit, which was great for our peace of mind! Our pets had a great time with her!”
