Pet Sitting Rufus King

“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!”

Nick P.

“Kim is prompt, communicative, and accommodating to our cats’ needs. Thank you, Kim, for providing peace of mind when we need to go out of town.”

“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.”

Derick C.

“This was our first time using Rover for our 2 frenchies and Melanie was so awesome!! She asked clarifying questions when she wasn’t sure about something, sent the cutest pictures and provided detailed updates after every visit. Normally I feel guilty leaving the dogs home when we travel but they looked very happy and with her updates I knew they were being well taken care of. We will definitely be using rover and Melanie’s help again in the future!❤️”

Kendra O.

“Charlotte came to do a meet and greet, and then was very quickly available for a drop in visit! She has great communication and Lenny loves her!”

Danielle P.

“Mika agreed to a last minute drop-in and I’m incredibly grateful! They were attentive at the meet and greet, and took great care of our many critters!”

Hope S.

“This was our first booking with Carrianne. She was great! She asked good clarifying questions during our meet and greet to make sure she fully understood how to care for our kitty, and was reliable and timely during the booking. We fully trusted her to take care of our anxious cat. We would love to book with her in the future!”

Jessica C.

“Valerie did such a great job taking care of our sweet girl! She was so attentive & loving. Would highly recommend to anyone needing someone to watch their beloved pets!”

Caitlin H.

“Stephen and Amelie are the best! They take excellent care of our babies and our home when we’re away and make us feel completely comfortable when we need to travel without the pups. Our dogs love them too!”

About: I’ve been a dog lover my whole life 🐶🤍 I grew up with both a Golden Retriever and a Yorkie, so I’ve had experience with very different personalities, sizes, and energy levels! I’ve cared for an older dog who needed a little extra patience and gentleness, as well as a younger, energetic pup who was always ready to play. I’ve also fostered dogs through a local humane society, which has given me even more experience getting to know new dogs, helping them feel comfortable, and giving them lots of love and attention while they’re in my care. 🐾 I know how much pets mean to their people, so I’ll always treat your pup like they’re part of the family — whether we’re going for a walk, taking a potty break, playing for a bit, or just getting some extra love while you’re away! 💕 As a teacher, I have a pretty consistent schedule, which makes it easy for me to plan pet care into my routine! 🍎🐾 I’m available after 4:00 PM on weekdays for walks and drop-in visits, and I have much more flexibility on weekends. I love having something active and fun to look forward to after the school day, and spending time with dogs is the perfect way to unwind. Whether your pup needs an evening walk, a potty break, some playtime, or a little extra attention, I’d be happy to help! 💕 I’ll always care for your pet in a way that follows their normal routine and your specific instructions! 🐾 During drop-ins, I can take them outside for potty breaks, refresh their water, play with them, give treats or meals if needed, and make sure they get plenty of love and attention. I’m also happy to crate your pup after a visit if that’s part of their usual routine. For walks, I’ll make sure your dog is securely leashed and keep a close eye on their surroundings so they stay safe and comfortable. I know every pet is different, so I’m happy to adjust to whatever makes your pup feel happiest and most at ease! 💕

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10. Your dogs are my upmost priority. I have had much practice with walking, feeding, and bathing dogs. It is important for while you are away to have a carefree time. When you book with me, you will get those services! In my line of work, I have pretty flexible hours. The times that best fit your doggie needs, usually can work for me! Booking with me you are able to get the smoothest experience possible. I take this job very seriously. I will be a diligent pet sitter, and ensure the best experience possible. I will like to have a meeting prior to my services. In this meeting I will ask about your dog, their needs, their daily routine and anything that I should be aware of.

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.

“She was absolutely wonderfully taking care of our kitten. She played, sent good pictures, and very responsive. Absolutely would book again.”

“Madeline did a great job checking in on my cat. He is very anxious but she followed instructions perfectly and made sure he was fed. I would trust her with his care anytime!”

Grace M.

“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!”

Zak K.

“Ana was great with our cat! She sent detailed updates and spent time playing with him. I felt like our cat was well taken care of and would definitely book Ana again!”

Diane P.

“Auria was a competent, caring, and thoughtful dog sitter. She sent us numerous pictures and detailed updates as to how Lily was doing. I would highly recommend her and have already booked another stay! We truly felt as though Lily was in excellent hands.”

About: What sets me apart is both my personal and professional experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and currently work at Dogtopia, where I care for and supervise dogs daily. This has helped me become patient, attentive, and comfortable working with different temperaments and energy levels. I also have experience with both senior dogs and puppies. My senior dog, Otis, had arthritis, so I learned how important patience, comfort, and attentive care are for older pets. I also helped raise and train our pug puppy with basic training, routines, and socialization. Because of these experiences, I understand that every pet has different needs depending on their age and personality, and I always try to make pets feel safe, active, and cared for like they’re my own.⭐️😊 Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I work at Dogtopia, where I help maintain a safe, clean, and fun environment for dogs of all sizes and personalities. 🐾 My job has taught me the importance of paying close attention to dogs’ behavior, safety, and overall well-being throughout the day. When I’m home, I also spend a lot of time caring for my own dog. I enjoy taking him on long walks by the lake, staying active with him through runs and playtime, and making sure he gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care every day.🦮🏃‍♀️❤️ When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always prioritize safety, comfort, and keeping pets on their normal routine as much as possible. I make sure the environment is clean and secure by checking doors, gates, food, and anything that could be unsafe or easily gotten into by curious pets.🤗 I also pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, energy level, and individual needs to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while their owner is away. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, medication reminders, or simply giving them attention and companionship, I always try to make pets feel safe, cared for, and at home.
