House Sitting in Rockland

About: I have dogsat ever since I can remember. I have a passion for taking care of animals, and I want nothing more for ever animal to be healthy and loved. I have six dogs, so I have tons of experience taking care of them. I am honest and reliable! I currently work part-time, so I have plenty of time to take care of your animals! I promise to stop by as often as possible. I prioritize animal safety, so your dog will be let out either on a leash or in a fenced in area! I want what is best for them.

“Emily did an amazing job watching Avery! Avery seemed so content when I arrived home. Emily sent me updates & pictures twice daily. I highly recommend Emily! She is awesome!!”

About: Raised around both cars and dogs, I currently share my home with one of each! My dog is a certified therapy dog, meaning I have experience with handling and behavioral awareness in various public settings. I am experienced in administering medication, including managing diabetic care for my own cat. Your pet's health and safety are my top priority! I work a full-time, hybrid schedule. On the days I am working from home, I am happy to provide visits and check-ins throughout the day to ensure your pet gets the attention and care they need! We can coordinate your pet's routine with my schedule to maintain consistency. My work-from-home days are typically Monday & Wednesday. I alternate Thursday and Friday, so please inquire about a specific date(s)! In My Home: we maintain a routine for feeding, playing, and walks to minimize stress and ensure predictability. I use my experience as a handler to quickly recognize and manage signs of distress, discomfort, or potential behavioral issues. In Your Home: I adhere strictly to your instructions regarding feeding, medication, and access to different areas of your home. I ensure all doors and windows are locked upon departure, and handle keys/access codes with confidentiality. And of course, sending you updates, including photos and detailed reports, so you know your pet is safe and happy!

“Laren stayed for a 3 day weekend with our 3 dogs and 2 cats. She did a fantastic job. She followed through on all our instructions and requests. She was prompt in returning messages and sent us photos too. She even made friends with our very shy cat who will normaly never even be around strangers. She's truly a "cat whisperer"! We recommend her highly!”

“Bella took such good care of our pet! Her communication was great, and we were grateful for her flexibility. We will definitely have her back again.”

About: My dog is a 75 pound mutt that looks like a pit. I’ve been taking care of her since I was 12. She pulls a lot so I’m very used to that. I also dog sit my mom’s friend’s dog, so I have experience with other dogs too. I’m also a dog person mainly. I work at Walmart part time and go to college full time, but I have a car and am willing to commute to take care of your animals! I love animals a lot, so I am excited to meet new ones! I care for pets in my home or my clients’ homes by feeding, letting the animals out to potty or get some movement, petting them, giving them treats if allowed, and just overall making the animals feel loved while you’re gone!

About: I’ve been around dogs all my life, we’ve always had at least one in our house since I was a kid and I’ve helped take care of our family dogs and now my own. I’ve also watched friends dogs while they were away. I currently work from home so I can spend time playing with your pets or let them out when they need it, even if it’s frequently. I have a dog of my own so I’ve been able to adjust my schedule to fit his needs when I got him as a puppy. I have 2 friendly dogs in our house who love to play. I live close to a park and I have access to a crate if need be. I can easily adapt my schedule to suit the needs of your pets!

About: I’ve worked for family and friends pet sitting for a few years now and really enjoyed getting to know their furry family members, dogs and cats both. I have experienced giving meds to both dogs and cats. And working with dogs with higher anxiety as well I work 9-5 Monday through Friday, I am happy to stop over on my lunch break as needed as well as come by before or after work during the week I take great pride in being aware of my surroundings when walking dogs. As well as being observant of behavior changes in cats while they are in my care. I often send pictures and updates to pet parents throughout the time time I’m watching their pet.

“Chilynn is the best! Very knowledgeable and experienced with pets, and just a very kind and warm person. She was very reliable, and great with communicating and updates. She took good care of our buddies. ?highly recommend!!!”

About: Since I was a young girl I've cared for cats and dogs in various settings. I've volunteered at humane societies, I've worked as a Vet Tech, was a supervisor at a daycare/boarding facility. I can administer insulin and other medications. Minor training experience in a professional setting. Can handle puppies to seniors. I will have plenty of time to devote to your pets, who really are our children. I am home a majority of the time with my own pets. I do not have a fenced in yard, I use a leash and walk my dog at least once a day, weather permitting. Potty breaks 2-4 hrs for my dog. I can travel as I have a 4wd vehicle. I will play and treat your pets as my own!

“Erin was great! Super friendly and took great care of our dog. Stayed at the house while we were away and kept the place nice and clean. Will def book again”

About: I have worked in a doggy-daycare since I was 16 years old so I have had years of experience with dog-sitting including all kinds of different dogs. I have learned many things and am experienced with dogs and different behaviors as well as working with younger dogs and puppies. I have also worked in dog boarding which included feeding dogs, administering medication and making sure dogs were let outside frequently. Currently, I’m working as a dog groomer at a pet spa so I am with all kinds of dogs daily! In the past, I have dog-sat for many family members and friends and still continue to do so as well. I have owned dogs all my life so I am a huge dog lover! I am available most of the time, besides when I’m grooming dogs at my job so I can be extremely flexible. I am very excited to hopefully get the opportunity to meet you and your dog! :) I’m currently working 3-4 days a week anywhere between the hours of 8am-1pm or 9am-2pm. I am flexible to accommodate around the needs of any requests :) I have a big back yard and friendly dog to keep company with new friends :) My dog has full range to roam in my house all day, and when left alone. I do not own a crate since I don’t use one for my dog. If you crate your dog at home, I would prefer the same to be done during stays with me as well! I give my dog potty breaks every 2-4 hours, but can do more breaks frequently if necessary. Fed 2x daily. Go on many walks and lots of exercise!

“Abrianna is truly exceptional! She cared for our two dogs with such love and attentiveness—it was like leaving them with family. Over the two days we were gone, she kept in regular contact, sending updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. She walked them, played with them, and gave them all the attention they needed. We came home to happy pups and a spotless home. Highly, highly recommend!”

“Great sitter! Happy to recommend.”

About: (More reviews included at the end of my Photo’s!!) I’ve been passionate about caring for pets since I was 13, earning the nickname “the neighborhood pet-sitter.” I have experience caring for all kinds of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, ferrets, guinea pigs, and more. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, from playful puppies to wise seniors, and provide care for every need- whether it’s a quick playtime, daily exercise, or extra support for pets who are blind, deaf, or have other special needs. Pet owners can count on me to be reliable, punctual, and attentive, and I provide regular updates and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. I’m also experienced in administering medications and following special care instructions. Caring for animals isn’t just a job, it is a passion of mine, and I treat every pet like part of my family. Pet care fits seamlessly into my weekly routine, even while I balance part-time work and classes at UW-La Crosse. My current job is seasonal, so from November through April I am no longer working part-time, so I have plenty of free time to spend with your furry friends! I’m available every day (specific times vary), including weekends (unless I’m out of town). I offer a range of services, from short playdates and walks to overnight house sitting. No matter the schedule, I’m committed to giving your pets consistent attention, exercise, and love. When caring for pets in their own homes, I follow each owner’s instructions closely, from feeding schedules and medication to walks, playtime, and routines. I prioritize safety and comfort, keeping pets secure while providing love, attention, and mental stimulation. I maintain a clean and tidy environment, including litter boxes and any pet messes, and I monitor pets for any changes in behavior or health, reporting concerns promptly. I respect the home and its rules, ensuring your pets and your space are cared for with the same attention and dedication I would give my own furry family members.

“Heather was an incredible dog sitter in our home! She clearly has a ton of experience and feels super comfortable with dogs. We got great photos every day of our 7+ days being gone showing our pups out walking, sunbathing, or relaxing indoors. We even got videos! It was obvious our dogs also felt comfortable with her based on the photos, videos, and the fact that when we got home they were happily napping together - she had worn them out! And she had a ton of patience for them doing their usual dog stuff (getting in the water, rolling in stuff, etc) which we really appreciated as it kept them in their normal routine. Our house was also clean and tidy when we got back and our garden well cared for. Heather was very communicative which was nice for keeping us in the loop for all the little funny things our dogs were up to. We will definitely book again!”

“Paige was amazing from start to finish. She was quick to respond to our request and open to come for a meet and greet so our pets would know her prior to her staying with them. She sent pictures daily with updates and even celebrated our dog's birthday with him while we were gone by getting him a birthday hat. We came home to happy pets and an incredibly clean home. We will definitely be reaching out to Paige with any pet sitting needs in the future.”

About: I have experience training puppies and caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I also have spent time with service dogs in-training. I love dogs of all ages and enjoy being active with them as well. I also have experience with cats and would be happy to watch them in your home as well. I am currently work full time, and have some days working remote. I have a flexible schedule and I am open to short term or long term arrangements. I live with my dog, Vintage, and I unfortunately would not be able to have any more dogs in my home but am happy and willing to care for your pets in your home! I work full time, hybrid (remote some days) and have a flexible schedule, so I am willing to work something out that fits both of our needs! I am very respectful of each persons expectations/needs for caring for their pet. I would want someone to follow my guidelines with my dog so I understand other people wanting that as well.

“Rachel stayed at our place while we were out of town and all the animals did great. She sent updates daily and look forward to her staying again while we are out of town. Would highly recommend.”
