Pet Sitting Rufus King

“Angela took wonderful care of Elliott during her twice-daily visits. She showed tremendous patience with him and let him warm up to her at his own pace. By her final visit, he allowed her to pet him and take him into the yard—a big accomplishment! She also thoughtfully handled a few extra details around the house. I truly appreciated her reliable and compassionate care. I highly recommend.”

About: I have had experience caring for many different kinds of animals throughout my life, such as dogs, horses, guinea pigs, and fish. I am comfortable and confident with walking, feeding, bathing, etc. I am a full-time grad student, and I also work a part-time job. My schedule is a little different each weekday, sometimes with breaks in the middle of the day. I am available all day on the weekends. I do not currently care for any pets in my home. I am not currently accepting jobs that require a pet to stay in my home.

“Ilene was great! We have a foster cat in quarantine with an infection and wanted someone to spend time with him while we were out of town. Ilene was able to give him some quality time and attention, he was a happy camper. The updates we got were good and the photos were perfect. Thank you!”

About: After several busy months on Rover with almost nonstop bookings, I have had such great stays with dozens of dogs, no accidents in the houses, no bites, no runaways, zero negative experiences. I feel confident that with me, you’re getting a premium stay for your pets for a really good value! I’m incredibly hands on and present with the pets, with them 24/7 and very adaptable with the different needs and personalities. I’m attentive with different care instructions and really shower the animals with positive attention 😊 I have no pets or kids but I am a pet lover in a nice home with a big fenced in yard. This is not a business for me, it’s something I have enjoyed doing for my family and friends, and if you want your beloved pet to be in a calm but fun, comfortable environment while you’re away, I can extend my service to you. I recently started doing home stays/drop ins for the pet sitting too and enjoyed it. I currently have a really flexible schedule with a lot of availability. I live with my dad that occasionally says hi if the dog or cat is friendly but mostly the house is big enough that they never cross paths. I have a fenced in yard and a big house with a lot of space that I can also section off by closing doors. I typically take the animals out several times a day, feed them, and let them roam around the house or snuggle with me. I like when pet owners bring a bed for their pets so I can make them their own space but they’re welcome to chill with me in whatever I’m doing. I’m youthful, active, and responsible. I have a naturally friendly, calm demeanor that animals and people respond well to. I have no pets right now but used to have a pit/black lab mix that I loved dearly so I love pits and other breeds with historically bad reputations. I frequently sit my aunt’s beagle mix who’s just a little old pup that sparked my interest for pet sitting because it was so fun to have visits from him. He and my old dog are in a bunch of my pics. With all animals I just try to make them comfortable and let them feel at home.

“Kim was great with our puppy! Very communicative with us and flexible as our schedules changed and developed. You can tell she is a animal lover!”

“Travis was great as usual looking after my cats and I know I have nothing to worry about while I’m gone. He was very accommodating of dropping in an extra day when my flights were delayed.”

Kyle R.

“Carrianne was fantastic! She was very thorough in her daily updates on our cat Ivy. Ivy got along very well with her and we will definitely rebook Carrianne in the future!”

“Jessica was great with my German shepherd, my dog has been going through some health issues and when I went out of town for 4 days I needed someone to come take care of her 3 times a day and mix up her special food, take her for walks and monitor her potty breaks. Jessica was also super flexible with the timing of her visits and made this potentially stressful time super easy for me and my dog. 5 stars. Would reccomend her to anyone.”

About: I have pet sit for a number of family and friends growing up. This is just my first time dabbling in an official pet-sitting service. I am a reliable, transparent sitter dedicated to the health and happiness of your pet. I do work a full-time job Monday-Friday 9am-5pm. However, I am ready and willing to commute to work during the weekdays for house-sitting I am a clean, respectful house-sitter capable of performing small house-keeping tasks if needed. I am also very transparent and willing to give periodic updates during my stay.

“Rebecca did a great job and will be definitely booking with her again! She was on time and communicative during the time she was watching my cats!”

About: I am a former dog handler that worked at a doggy day care where I cared for multiple dogs daily, managing different temperaments and energy levels. I’m experienced in supervising play, maintaining safety, and keeping dogs calm, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ve also owned dogs and cats in my lifetime as well! Genuinely an animal lover. I’m available for morning and evening visits on weekdays, and I have open availability on weekends. I offer flexible scheduling for walks, drop ins, and pet sitting, and I do my best to accommodate each pet’s routine. I prioritize a safe, calm, and clean environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, follow routines closely, and make sure every pet feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for.

About: Hello! My name is Elaina, and I have been dog-obsessed since as early as I can remember. I’ve grown up most of my life with large breed dogs in the family, and I currently have my own dog, Casper – a super energetic and loving German Shorthaired Pointer/Labrador mix. I happily welcome all dog breeds and ages! As a teacher, I have my summers available to walk, house visit and/or house sit – I couldn’t imagine a more fulfilling way to spend my summer! Please check my availability to schedule a service for your dog! I am a teacher, so my summers are available to care for your dog! I have June, July and August available for dog walking, house-visits and house-sitting. If you would like boarding services for your dog in my home, please keep in mind that I have a dog, Casper. He is incredibly friendly with all dogs – however, if your dog is not comfortable with other dogs, I would not suggest selecting this service. Otherwise, dog walking, house-visits and house-sitting would be no problem!

“Whitney was awesome with the two cats. The two cats were very comfortable with her. Nick and Sam can be challenging and Whitney kept us informed with clear communication. She was very caring towards the cats. I will definitely ask her to care for Nick and Sam again!”
