House Sitting in Salem

About: Hi my name is Leah and I am a college student and lifelong animal lover! have years of experience caring for all kinds of animals from bunnies to alpacas to cats & dogs and everything in between. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. From energetic puppies/kittens to senior pets, I’m comfortable providing attentive, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. I am comfortable working with animals of all kinds and am comfortable administering medications. Feel free to reach out with any questions! I can’t wait to meet your pet! I currently work full time but am available before 8am and after 5pm on Mon/Tues and Thurs/Fri and am available all day on Wednesdays. I am available all day on weekends and I am also able to do overnights anytime throughout the week! I have cared for dogs and cats my whole life and feel confident in my ability to provide a safe and comfortable environment. I also am knowledgeable in noticing signs of illness if veterinary care is needed while you are away. I have years of pet sitting experience with anxious/reactive dogs and am comfortable caring for them as well.

“We had Beatriz house sit for us and take care of our two cats. This was the first time we had someone stay in our house, and Beatriz was wonderful! She was very professional and communicative. I know our cats were happy to have the company while and it felt much easier to leave knowing she would be there with them and also keeping an eye on things while we were away. She cleaned up after herself and was very respectful of our home. I would definitely recommend Beatriz for house and or cat sitting, and would have her back!”

“Brittany is amazing. I can’t say enough great things! She responded promptly to the request to take care of my pups and was accommodating in setting up a meet and greet. She is extremely reliable, communicative and compassionate. When I returned home, the dogs were happy and everything was spotless and in order. I would highly recommend Brittany for anyone looking for peace and exceptional care!”

“We are so fortunate to have found Kadence.She has a calm,soft demeanor and was unfazed by my fearful Chihuahua barking at her.Once Finn realized that I was leaving he jumped onto her lap and watched me go.That never happens.Kadence sent pictures that assured me that Finn was laying calmly with her.It was a huge relief for me to be able to spend Thanksgiving with my family knowing that Finn was in good hands.Kadence is professional and was here when she said she would be.I highly recommend her.I’ve already booked her,again,for a weekend.”

“Andrea watched our two dogs for the weekend, they absolutely loved her and she took such great care of them. We didn’t worry once, she checked in often and sent pictures. Would definitely recommend and would love to have her watch our fur babies in the future!”

“Joseph is terrific, he stayed with Griffin from 12/24-12/30 and took excellent care of our home and Griffin. We will definitely use Joseph again in the future when we travel. I can't say enough great things about him!”

About: Hello & welcome to my profile! I have been blessed by growing up around animals my entire life! My older brother has had dogs as small as a Poodle/Chihuahua mix (Ari) and as large as a Newfoundland (Armand - which I was able to help leash train)! My brother has relied on me multiple times to take care of them, and I do so lovingly! In Ari’s later years, he trusted me to give him his medication, special diet food, and assist him walk around. Additionally, I grew up around cats for as long as I can remember and currently have two of my very own. Not only cats & dogs, but bunnies, gerbils, and guinea pigs are all animals I have taken care of under my own roof! I know that each pet has their own personality and therefore needs specialized care. I know how much I think about my own when I am away from them, and I would be honored to lovingly take care of them so you don’t have to stress it! I currently work full time M-F, but am consistently done with work by 3:00/4:00 pm. This gives me plenty of time to stop by and care for your animals during the week part time, or full time on the weekends! Within my own home, I make sure to be proactive with making sure my cats have fresh water and food in their bowls at consistent times. I do not currently own any pet supplies for a dog and I live in a one bedroom apartment with limited space. I am happy to house smaller animals when need be and take care of all other pets within their own furever home!

“Andi was very responsive and punctual! She also took great care of our 15 year old guy with some special care needs. Thanks, Andi!”

About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life, I know how important your baby is, my goal is to give your dog safe and happy visits! I am currently on summer break for college so I have a mostly open schedule! I work some days at Aroma Joes and all my other time I am free. I always greet dogs slowly by letting them sniff my hand and get used to my scent, I have walked dogs since a kid and know how to handle dogs that pull.

“Sasha is nothing short of any amazing caretaker of both dogs and the house. She took amazing care of our two senior dogs, Kennedy (13) and Lady (10). We left them for a week for a trip to Florida. It was the longest that I had ever been away from Kennedy. But Sasha made it so much easier (and me, more relaxed!) with the loving care that she gave them. We received daily updates, photos, and little words of inspiration. She really is a special person with amazing compassion and care. My family feels blessed to have found Sasha to take care of our fur babies when we are unable to.”

“So thrilled we found Barbara!!!! We were able to relax on our vacation knowing our dog was in good hands. Barbara checked in every day and gave us a little update on JJ and totally gave us permission to not worry about anything. Loved that she treated him like her own while we were gone.”

“Allison was truly a blessing and if I ever need this service again, I will absolutely contact her! This was my first time ever leaving for multiple days and our planned sitter (a friend of ours) fell through shortly before our trip. Allison gave us the peace of mind that our dog's would be taken care of. She stayed with them for more time than I had even dared hope for and sent us regular updates. She was transparent, responsible, respectful and kind. Upon our return it was obvious that our dogs missed us but it was also obvious that they had been well cared for and treated with nothing but love and kindness. I can't possibly be even more thankful than I am.”

“Watanya is very caring and communicative. She sent us pictures every day and was in constant contact. We felt that both our pets were in perfect hands. She is diligent and trustworthy. We will definitely think of her for any other vacations we may take.”

“OMG we went on vacation for three weeks and left our cat and our home in the care of Lilian, who was a rockstar. She took care of everything, followed all of our instructions and when we came home this time our cat was completely at ease. Usually when we return home from vacation, whether it's a week or longer and we have somebody stop in, we hear it from the cat for a good two weeks waking us up early in the morning rauling, but this time Bella just showed love and has been 100% normal. We would hire her again in our heartbeat. Best decision we ever made!”

About: I have been helping care for pets since I was a young child. I grew up with pets and pet responsibilities. The love that I have for my pets crosses over to the love that I will bring for your pet. Pet sitting is currently my primary focus. This allows me to have greater flexibility in my schedule and more time to take care of your pets. Great care and concern for your pet is emphasized as well as open communication with you while your pet is in my care. Your concerns are my concerns when it comes to the safety and care of your pets.

“Odris was helpful, communicative and wonderful overall. We needed her for a very extended period and she stayed with our pup the whole time. She was kind and our dog was clearly very comfortable with her!”

Ben G.

“Ricky was fabulous with our 4 pets - super communicative before our trip and all throughout his time. Sent so many pictures and both dogs and both cats loved him.”

Shannon d.

“Having Ann Marie watch our dog was a stress free and absolutely awesome experience! She was so flexible coming to meet with us ahead of time and a great communicator for our entire trip. We felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in great hands and we are so grateful!”

About: Hello and welcome to my profile. My name is Monica and I am the proud fur-mom to a 3 year old golden named Mango. I am on rover to help with the needs of pet care as I know it can be quite expensive these days and am looking for something to do in my free time. I currently work at an Animal Hosptial, looking to expand my time with animals. I have 7 years of animal care, including 4 of those years working at a doggie daycare/kennel environment which has allowed me to understand dogs better, and how their body language/behavior is when it comes to being in a kennel environment and in a home environment. My dog Mango and I love to go on walks whether it’s to her favorite swimming area, or just in a field to run around and play ball. We are always out walking no matter the weather! I have experience taking care of animals ranging from puppies all the way to seniors. I have experience doing medications as well for both cats and dogs. I would love to help be a pet sitter for your wonderful fur babies. Don’t hesitate to reach out 😊 Always can fit in time to take your furbaby on a walk if they are energetic, or sit at home and give them attention if they are a homebody. Always love playing ball and being outside no matter the weather. For my own home I do not have a fenced in yard but my golden has a electric fence that she has been trained on to stay in the area when we are outside playing, or just enjoying the weather. If a fenced in yard is something you don’t have, I am always willing to find a quiet dog area to let your pup run, or even be able to take on a nice long walk to burn out their energy

“Emily helped us out with a last-minute booking and she was great!! Emily communicated well, took great care of our pets, and is very friendly. She sent lots of pictures and updates. Thanks, Emily!”
