Dog Sitting Sherwood

About: As a long time owner of dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles I have the skills, patience, and experience to safely and lovingly watch over your fur friend/s. Being around all the pets especially dogs has always been a natural passion of mine. As much of a service this is for you and your dog, it is also very much beneficial to my own health and well being. I have learned over the years that dogs respond very well to my voice, commands, and body language. A lot of love, care, and compassion to give. I have an open schedule and availability with flexibility to meet any requests! Monday-Sunday. Mornings, Afternoons, or Evenings. I look forward to being a helping hand in enhancing the lifespan and overall well being of your best friend :) My current daily routine and schedule is in need of dog walking and pet sitting. I am focusing on pet care and curating a more pet filled lifestyle. Although I will not be using my own home for pet care services, I can guarantee that the level of care given will be treated as if it were my own.

“Jenna is absolutely wonderful. This was our first time ever using a app like this before so it was very scary for us but Jenna helped us through it. Sent us daily pictures and updates and made us feel comfortable will definitely be using her services again in the future.”

“Lynne did a wonderful job taking care of my 3 cats while I was on vacation for 2 weeks. My semi feral cat even came to her for petting :) She followed all the feeding and care instructions perfectly. I certainly would recommend her if you need a reliable cat loving person to care for your cats while you’re away :)”

About: I have had pets all of my life including cats, dogs, fish & guinea pigs. I have taken care of pets (dogs & cats) for friends and family members while they are away. I will treat your fur baby like it is my own. I volunteer with a rescue in my free time. I enjoy watching fur babies multiple times & spending time with them. I'm available Friday evenings, Saturday & Sundays. I work during the week and I could assist during the week but I would need to discuss further with the needs for your fur babies. I can follow the directions that are given to care for your fur babies in your home. I am currently unable to offer boarding in my home.

About: I had a dog and cats growing up but as an adult I rescued a German Shephard Mix named Jaxon. I learned a lot just taking care of him but I got a job at Wags and Whiskers Pet Resort and worked with a wide variety of dogs from small to large and a range of behaviors. I feel like working with dogs is a gift I got from God and I'm able to work well with them and like them more than most humans. I'm caring and compassionate and always do what's best for the dog. I can provide treats for the dogs based on if there are allergies or not and can take good pictures of the dogs as I have experience doing it at the pet resort and could send you them while you are away from them! I work during the day during the week but nights and weekends I will be free to stop in and check on your dog or whatever you need. I cannot have any more animals where I live since I live in an apartment but would be able to at the customer's home. My dog has a kennel at home for when I'm gone, he feels safer in there with the noise from the apartment building. We play in the apartment and outside and go on long walks and hikes often!

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was ten. From a litter of beagle puppies to King & Queen to Sandy our cocker spaniel and Pepper the Schnauzer. In married life I had golden retriever and multiple Tri Shelties. Also have the pleasure of grand dogs to care for occasionally. My last Sheltie Cooper passed 10/2020 and I would love to care for your precious fur baby. I am an active retired female with lots of time & energy to care for your loved one. My hours are very open and I can be flexible with schedule I have a nice backyard with long leads/leash to connect pet indoors before letting out. Also very nice trail walks in area. I enjoy keeping your dog in good shape with a little exercise and a calm relaxing home to come back to

“Alli did an excellent job! We felt confident she would know exactly what to do for our animals. Her communication was timely, and she provided lots of details and photos. We will definitely book Alli again!”

“This was our first time hiring a pet sitter and Morgan was great. She was very quick to respond and flexible with scheduling. I would definitely recommend her.”

“Brianna was great. I was in a pinch and had never used Rover before. She wasn't able to meet my dog (German Shepherd) before hand during the week. That is important walking into a home of a Shepherd! She was flexible and met my dog in the morning of the day I needed her in the afternoon. Very much appreciated and worked out really well. Highly recommended and everyone should use her (except when I need her!!) Bill”

About: Thank you for considering me to be your trusted pet sitter! I have had dogs in my life since I was a young child. I have owned my own dogs for 11 years. I have experience with both puppies and seniors alike! My family and I are definitely “dog” people in every way! I offer personalized, one on one care for your furry family member! I currently work full time from home with a very flexible schedule and am home all weekends as well! I can accommodate your dogs routine into my day! I have experience with giving both oral and injection medication. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I structure my schedule around regular drop-in visits and dog walks, making sure each pet receives consistent care, attention, and exercise. I plan my routes and time blocks efficiently so I can be dependable and flexible for clients, whether they need recurring walks or occasional drop-ins. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, so it’s a priority in my routine rather than something I squeeze in. I provide attentive, in-home drop-in care so pets can stay comfortable in their own environment. During each visit, I make sure pets have fresh food and water, take care of potty breaks or litter box needs, provide playtime, walks if requested, and plenty of affection. I also follow any specific routines or instructions the owner provides, administer basic medications if needed, and keep the home tidy by cleaning up pet-related messes. I always prioritize safety, consistency, and communication, and I send updates so owners have peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I've been taking care of dogs on my own since middle school. We've always had a family dog in the household as well as friends and neighbors who would need help with their little ones. I have a BS in Animal Science, have worked as an emergency vet assistant/triage tech for the last 3 years, and have some professional dog training experience. I currently have 2 guinea pigs, and a 2-year-old AND 1-year-old pitty/lab mix that love to come to work with me and go on all sorts of outdoor adventures! Needless to say, my life revolves around animals and I don't know what the world would be like without them! I would love to get to know your little one and be there for them (and you!) when needed! Good communication and planning helps me arrange my schedule and make myself available for your needs. I often have days off during the week so I can spend time with our furry friends while their families are at work. Having worked in an emergency pet hospital keeps me on my toes and I always put safety first. When it comes to walking outside, I double check collar/harness every time to ensure a secure yet comfortable fit that can't be slipped out of. I also know dog body language and signs of illness to monitor and keep people and pets safe!

About: Hi! I’m new on Rover so would love to build some clientele! You will not be disappointed:) I’ve grew up with dogs my whole life and rescued my own about 2 years ago. I do help out with family members animals when needed. I would probably say I love animals more than people haha. You will definitely find me by them if they are around. In my free time I love hanging out with my Lucy girl and walking and checking out new spots or doing anything outside. My availability is pretty much open whenever except Thursdays as I work all day. I can dog sit, check in, board and walks whenever is needed! I am more familiar with dogs but I will care for any animal like my own! I currently have a pretty open schedule except Thursdays. I can usually move my schedule around to make sure your furry family member gets the care they need:) I don’t have a fenced in yard and I do have a pup named Lucy, she’s about 2.5 years old. I can accommodate to any care needs and requests. I have a larger crate if needed at my home.

About: I grew up with cats and dogs all my life. I currently have two cats and love them with my whole heart. I have watched family/friends’ dogs, cats, and horses in the past. My love for all animals is deep and I love every animal I come across like they’re my own. I work full time September - June but am off in the summers. Pet care does not take a break, however. Sometimes it just takes intentional planning. During the summer I have TONS of time to take care of your pets however they need! During the school year I am available in the evenings and on weekends. I am very careful when visiting homes to care for pets. I make sure to ask the preferences of the client & their pet. Approaching each pet with patience and caution at first until they get to know me is crucial to building trust. I am happy to do whatever it takes to make you and your fur baby comfortable and happy, just let me know!

“Stephanie was great with our dog! She was on time, gave us a thorough update on everything, and took time to play with and care for our pup like it was her own. Will book again!”

About: Grew up with a cat and dog. Every animal I own is considered part of the family and loved very much. I’ve worked in a vet- cleaned kennels, walk dogs, give medications. I will never go without a dog! I have a mini bernadoodle and will dog sit the other dog in the photos. I prefer small to medium dogs but would consider a large dog. I work remotely from home. I walk my dog twice a day and let him run in the backyard. My yard is fenced in but I keep a close eye on Duke. I allow my dog on furniture and cuddle while I work remotely. Well take breaks and make time to play or let him out for fresh air.
