Dog Sitting Roca

About: Hello! My name is Gretchen and I am 21 years old studying Environmental Science at the University of Nebraska Lincoln. I have dog sat since I was 10 years old for a variety of breeds. I am very comfortable around big labs or even tiny chihuahuas! I will treat any dog like it’s my own family and give them so much love when its own family is away. I love dogs more than people!! I have experience in giving dogs any type of medicine. I’ve given shots to elderly dogs and pills to pups whenever they need it in a very timely manner. I am CPR certified as well I am a full time student but I am free all summer! I can take care of your dogs when you go on those amazing summer vacations. My schedule is very flexible so don’t be afraid to reach out! I live in an apartment so going to your place would be ideal. At your place I will clean anything you need me to! I will clean up after the dog and you won’t be disappointed!

“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 😊”

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was around 10 years old. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their dogs and cats while they’re away. I’m comfortable with pets of different ages, sizes, and temperaments, and I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important routines, patience, and attention are for their well being. I am a part time student with a small part time job. I have a lot of free time on weekends and most week days. Having a dog of my own, I am used to balancing animal needs with my schedule. I have am willing to spend the night wile watching you animal. I can also find multiple times in the day to make sure the animal gets plenty of outdoor exercise and attention. I love being outside and taking long drives just like your animals!

About: I have two wheaten terriers and know all that is involved when it comes to walks, food, play, etc. I’ve watched my neighbors’ dogs overnight, trained my own, and love meeting new ones as well! I currently am between classes, so I am quite open to your needs: weekends, early mornings, late nights, you name it! The more time with your pets the merrier. Making sure dogs are fed, walked, and played with is top priority—something that comes naturally to me. I occasionally wash dogs if they are considered to be too dirty.

About: I was the kid who drove her parents crazy always bringing strays home to take care of them. For as long as I can remember, I've always felt a pull to protect and care for animals. I work a set schedule but am free mornings before I go in and evenings after I get off. I do not work weekends so I would have more free time to engage with pets and spend more time with them. Along with my kids, my animals are my top priorities. I take my caregiver responsibilities seriously at home and in the workplace. I understand every pet parent is different and I am accommodating and easily adaptable to different schedules and routines.

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.

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!

“Abigail always does so great with Pawley! He is shy at first with people he doesn’t see all the time, and she always makes sure to take the time to make him comfortable. We love being able to rely on her.”

“Macy took great care of Samira and communicated well with me on a last minute trip even though it was the first time she had worked with us. Pics and vids were sent as promised. She was accommodating with her own work schedule to make sure Samira was taken care of. Thank you so much, Macy.”

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’ve spent years caring for animals—raising multiple dog and cat breeds, being the trusted friend who watches everyone’s pets, and even working as a pre-vet student and zookeeper for tigers and wolves. I now have my own husky and two cats, and I’m confident, calm, and experienced with pets of all personalities, needs, and energy levels. Because I work remotely full-time, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to give pets consistent attention throughout the day. I can easily rotate between work and pet care, fitting in walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins whenever needed. My availability stays steady, so your pet gets reliable company, structure, and care from morning to evening. I Will be able to work with you on the comfort and needs of your pets based on mutual available resources and your pets training.

About: I have grown up with big dogs, cats and birds my whole life. I have a big heart for animas all sizes. I have watched dogs and cats for numerous years for friends and family members I typically have an open morning schedule. I work at my other job from 2-10, so I would wake up whenever needed. I have Thursdays off which will my fullest availability. I am very mobile and able to come to you at your convenience. I have a one cat at home and he is declawed. I live in an apartment complex so coming to you is more convenient.

“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: dogs are very important to me as i have been around them my entire life. i currently work at a dog kennel and as much as i enjoy cleaning up after and taking care of those dogs, i would love to have the opportunity to take care of more dogs outside of the kennel environment. my own dog is so very special to me. when i take him back to visit my parents, we have a total of four dogs running around! the smallest is around 10lbs and the biggest is around 85lbs, needless to say it’s crazy and fun! i currently work part time so i am very flexible with my schedule. i am happy to accommodate as much as i can to fit whatever needs you may have. i live in an apartment so as of now, i am not able to dog sit at my home. however, i am more than happy to commute to your residence to treat your dog as if they were my own. dogs have unique personalities and i am capable of accommodating special requests to make sure your dog is as comfortable and safe with me as possible.

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.

“I'm so thankful for people like Kristin. It's always nice knowing you can leave your pets with someone who cares. Great communication and will definitely be using her again!”
