Pet Sitting in Ross Crossing

About: As a farm kid, animals (of every variety) have been part of my life for as long as I can remember! Now I get to share that joy with my family, our playful pup, our cat, & even our hedgehog! I have experience caring for dogs of all ages - from energetic puppies to calm seniors & I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I understand how important it is to keep your pets safe & feeling the love. And I love sending photo updates so you never miss a moment of their fun! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I currently work from home & have lots of flexibility. I love having extra paws around to keep me company during the day & taking breaks for walks or cuddle sessions fits naturally into my schedule. Between working from home & chauffeuring my daughter to her various extracurricular activities, I can give your pets plenty of attention & exercise throughout the week! In my home, pets are treated like part of the family! I provide a safe, loving environment with lots of attention & play. Dogs who are social & cat-friendly are welcome to play with my own friendly dog & we have 6 acres of open space for well-trained pups to explore off-leash (always under supervision). The dogs who aren’t quite ready for off-leash will simply get to explore while leashed. Indoors, pets have cozy spots to relax & are never left alone for long. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their usual routine of feeding, walks, playtime, & any other specific instructions they need. I make sure pets feel comfortable & cared for while you’re away. I love sending regular photo updates so you always know how they’re doing, too!

“Ashley is amazing. We’ve been having her visit with our cat Todd for over a year. He is becoming more high maintenance as he ages and now she’s been on puke duty and hasn’t questioned things one bit. She is easy to talk to and always keeps us in the loop. I highly recommend booking with her for any of your pet sitting needs.”

About: I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager I had my childhood dog for 17 years, so I understand all the needs an older dog might have. I currently have a 5 year old Bichon/Llasa Apso mix who loves other dogs. Any dog coming into my care will always be treated like my own and given the love they deserve. I currently work from home and am a single mom, so day time care is pretty easy to fit into my day. My best days for availability are Wednesday and Thursday. I will also have a smattering of availability on the weekends I have a big fenced in yard and a 5 year old dog named Gus, who will love spending time with your dogs. There are lots of great walking paths around my neighborhood to keep your pet happy and acurve. All pets are allowed on the furniture or in bed at night but I do have crates if that is preferred.

“This was my first booking through Rover, and my first time using a dog walker, and I can't imagine a better experience. Justin was incredible and went above and beyond during the six days he took care of our dogs. I was a bit nervous about having someone I didn't know in our house while we were gone. He came for a meet and greet shortly after I requested the booking and I knew he was going to be great when our barker did not bark at him. He sent me updates each day and even came out again one evening when my husband wasn't going to get home in time. Overall, Justin was a lifesaver. 11/10, would recommend. We will definitely use him again.”

About: I have both a cat and dog at my home which I take care of. I also have both watched cats and dog sat for families in my area. I’m currently available after 5 pm Mon-Thursday after 3 on Fridays and anytime during the weekend! I have some midday availability sometimes as well, we can chat more about this. I am happy to follow a list you leave behind in order to care for your animal! It’s important for me to know what your animal likes and doesn’t like!

About: I've always loved animals. I've helped to walk my families dogs since I was a kid and have always loved hanging out with furry friends. I currently work a full time job but have the weekends free to spend lots of time with your pet. I also have plenty of time on weeknights to still give your baby some love. Keeping your pet feeling comfortable and safe in their home with a new person is extremely important. I seek to provide a stable, as close to normal routine for your pet while you're away.

“Our first time using Rover and we can’t say enough good things about Eric & Christine. They took such good care of our puppy! We are new to the area and we were hesitant to try Rover but Eric & Christine quickly eased our fears with consistent updates & photos. We certainly appreciate all the love & care they provided our young pup! Thanks again!”

“Not a single complaint, thanks for the help Stephanie!”

About: My name is Jake and I want to be your dog’s second favorite person (behind you of course). I grew up with dogs, cats, chickens, turtles, snakes, and fish, so I know my way around responsible pet ownership. I have bottle fed kittens, managed puppies, and even sat for a house-trained rabbit. I’m a Masters student so my schedule is flexible and I’m dog and cat deprived so I’ll give your pets all the love! I am a Masters student with a very flexible schedule. I’m happy to do drop-ins, walks, or house sit any day of the week. Let’s get in touch! I love all dogs and cats and will provide any care you need me to for your pups and cats! Unfortunately due allergies in my family I can’t board, but am happy to do drop-ins, walks or house sit. Whether you have a puppy or senior dog that needs special attention, or a dog or cat that just wants to play, you can count on me to entertain them and keep them safe.

“Hillary took care of our two cats for 10 days and we have no criticism about her work, even though she was faced with the daunting task of corralling both our girls to administer oral medication every day. She was responsive, professional, pleasant and reliable. I wouldn't hesitate to use her services again.”

About: I’ve always been passionate about animal welfare and care. There has never been a time I have not owned animals and currently has 4 cats and 1 dog. My experience stretches further as I have experience with anywhere from small animals such as chinchillas and guinea pigs to horses and previously working as a vet managing 90 baby deer. I share a lot of love and attention with my animals and would be happy to share that time and dedication with yours! I have a full time career in Human Resources for a large local employer where I work remote which has allowed me to have so many of my own fur babies! I am pretty flexible and wouldn’t accept a job where I couldn’t meet your animals needs. I have four cats that are well adjusted to dogs (including my neighbors 90 lb golden retriever) and a very social dog that my husband takes to the dog park 4 days a week. I also don’t mind staying at other persons homes as I have before with our neighbors and friends. You can expect that I will always treat your home and privacy with the utmost respect—just as I would want someone to do in my own home. If you have specific rules or instructions, you can count on me to follow them carefully and consistently.

About: (WILL BE LEAVING ROVER AFTER AUGUST FOR CAREER PURPOSES) I've been a pet parent for as long as I can remember! I grew up around various dog breeds and other exotic pets so I'm well versed in pet personalities! I've worked in 3 doggy daycares over the past 5 years and have loved every second of it ! I'm able to administrator medication as well to senior or special care pets ! Currently working a few side gigs so my schedule is super flexible! I'm an early bird and can be there as needed but tend not to be around too late at night. I'd love to have​ your furry friend as part of my daily routine ! I'm used to different sized dogs so wrangling them into crates or rooms as needed is no problem ! I take extra care to keep your home clean and loved to make your time away stress free for you and your pet! (As a policy of my own, I don't tend to stay overnight in client homes unless discussed)

About: Our first pup was a Golden doodle, Josie, who loved life until 12 years old in 2020. We took a year break and then choose our next love our Aussie doodle, Nova who is now 4 yrs old & is full of energy, loves cuddles, kids and other dogs and their toys 😊. I have been through the puppy stages to the end stages and new puppy stages again. I grew up on a dairy farm so dogs, cats, chickens, & lots of cows were the first animals I ever cared for. Once married and moved to the "city" it is when I first had to train an indoor dog for the first time. Our Golden doodle Josie was a gem & we love Nova just as much! I have an at home business so I'm flexible with my schedule. Walks, chilling in the sun on the patio, tossing the ball in the back yard are some our family favorite activities. Safety and respect for others is my highest priority. I am reliable and your pups will get the love, cuddles, belly rubs & active time they need.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was 10 years old. I’ve had family and friends rely on me to care for their animals. My current work schedule is more flexible, so I would have a wider range of availabilities for pet care activities and daily walks, or drop-ins. Safety would always be a top priority. Whether it’s in my home, or your home, your pet is my focus and their joy is guaranteed.

“I'd highly recommend Madalynn to other families. She did a great job with my rowdy dogs. I will use her again.”

“Sara was great! I will definitely be using her in the future. She sent lots of pictures which I greatly appreciated. She hung out with our cat, emptied the litter boxes and even brought in our mail.”

About: I have 2 dogs of my own. Also I have experience with older dogs and puppies. I love all animals! I'm not scared of much either! I currently work part time. So I'm pretty open. I'm available after 10:30am on Wednesday Saturday and Tuesday Thursday and Friday after 4:30. I'm available all day on Sunday and Monday I care for my pets by taking them to the dog park twice a week making sure they have food and water. Also making sure they are utd on their shots. For taking care of your pet tho that would go off of how you would want me to take care of your animals. You are the owner. I'm just there to help you out and take care of your animals.

About: I have owned all sorts of dogs, big and small, so I know the specific needs for nearly every breed. I am an energetic person so I love to walk/run with dogs, but I also enjoy cuddling up and just giving them loving! At this time, there are no animals of my own in the house. I really hope to find clients that would like recurring stays/visits so I can make more furry friends and figure out the best care for that specific dog. Also, I'm an avid runner, so high energy dogs are very welcome! I work at the hospital nearly every day, but I am able to give your pet my full attention during the weekends. Dogs that are routinely left home during the weekday are welcome during the week, as I am not able to come home and let them out during the day. I am typically gone for about 10 hours a day. We live on a 10 acre farm with tons of room to run and explore (on leash)! We have outdoor farm animals but they tend to mind their own business and don’t bother visitors! Your pet will be treated like my own while in my care, plus some extra treats! ;)

“Sarah was prompt and my dog immediately took to her. They went for a nice long walk and he was happy and tired at the end! I will definitely use her again to entertain my pup.”

About: I grew up on a dairy farm so always around small and large animals. Fast-forward to adulthood. We have a cat, Nala and a dog Hyde, each with their fun personalities. I have watched others dogs on and off as needed and recently heard about Rover. I know it can be difficult to find a pet sitter and hard to remove them from their environment too. Happy to come to you! I work from home full time so have the ability to get out during the day to let a pet out, walk them or just check in. I adapt to your Animal are they a snuggler, or do they like their space? Do they need lots of outside time or like the lazy life. Here to provide what your pet needs.
