About: I love dogs of all ages young and old. I have had dogs and loved them my whole life. We have a jack russle named Indy who loves to hike and go on adventures with us. He is very friendly and loves other dogs and cats. He's the coolest calmest jack you'll ever meet. I am currently a homeschool Mama. So I am here full time. I have one dog and two cats. All very friendly and welcoming to other animals. I have time to take care of and spend time with your pet. I have a small fenced in yard for smaller dogs. I also have a very friendly small jack russle named Indy to keep your pet company. We go on walks and have lots of play time and rest time. I have children who are also pet lovers.
“Nadia was very responsive and communicative when we had a last minute cancellation and needed a dog sitter for our two golden retrievers. She did a wonderful job taking care of both of our dogs! We would absolutely use Nadia again.”
About: What sets me apart from all sitters is my deep depth for all animals. As a child, I have always developed a love for animals. My love and compassion for animals spilled over into the education field working with students with special needs. Presently, I have four rescue cats, two classroom guinea pigs, and four dogs, one of which is a rescue. I volunteer with my country's animal shelter, and I have fostered and saved many animals. My love for critters is endless. I am a teacher, so teachers do not work in the summer. However, I do work teaching summer school and a camp in June. I can work evenings and remain overnight. I have the entire month of July off. My children are grown, so my schedule is flexible. I can provide references. I live in a secluded area, so when I am home, they have free range. My dogs are leash trained. During the day when I am home, they remain in a crate. I live six minutes from work, so they arent in their crates all day. My oldest daughter lives with me, so when I am away, they are taken care of.
“A+++ Harley was knowledgeable and mature, caring and trustworthy! We could not have found anyone more qualified to pet/house sit for us. There was not one moment of concern while we were away as to whether or not our pets were in good hands. She communicated every day with photos and messages showing how happy they were. We couldn't be more grateful for her service, her time and her attention shown in loving our dogs as if they were her own.”
About: I have taken care of my own pets since I was a little girl. We have had all kinds of animals from small breed yorkies, medium breed Boston terriers, all the way to large breed bloodhounds. We also have one loving cat I’ve taken care of from the day we got her almost 15 years ago! I have sat for my family and friends with their animals while on vacations or long work days while I was in high school. I have experience in raising a puppy all the way down to helping senior pets into there final days. I have been told that I’m an animal whisperer that even the uncommon animals that only have their few favorite people warm up to me instantly! I have free time after work and on the weekends that I would love to spend with someone’s furry babies to help them have an easier time while on vacations or anytime they’re away from the home for longer than comfortable leaving there babies alone. When caring for other families animals I like to have a run down of their typical day and a list to make sure their routine is interrupted as minimum as possible. In my home, we do breakfast and potty breaks first thing in the morning. We play a little before work then get treats and tucked in for the day. Once I get home we do potty break and play time until dinner time. I know how important a routine can be for an animals comfort and the parents.
“Raeann was wonderful with my dog and cat! She took such great care of my very senior dog who needed extra attention. I’m so grateful to her for keeping my worries down so I could relax and have a great vacation.”
About: I am a professional trainer who has been around dogs my whole life. I currently own 2 Rottweilers, Husky and a Shepard. I truly enjoy working with animals. We have a set schedule atbour home with our pets. We eat meals 2x a day and go outside as needed throughout day and night. Caring for pets in my home would be added to our schedule or we can adjust depending on the pet. We have crates if needed for pets. In a clients home I would follow the schedule that they lay out to ensure not to disrupt their schedule.

About: I grew up caring for cats from newborn kittens to elderly cats. We had 22 at one point (inside and outside cats) and they were so well taken care of no one knew we had that many! We owned dogs for a short period of time and went through an obedience training course for them. They train the owners more so than the dogs, lol. Training was successful. The dogs were very friendly and happy. We now live with 2 Russian Blue cats now; one male (Sugarbear), one female, (Hazel) and my daughter has a mixed breed medium sized dog named Chuckie (after the truck stop he was found at, not the crazy doll, lol). I often take care of Chuckie for extended periods of time while my daughter is out of town with work. I am able to administer medicine with ease should the fur baby need it. Whenever there is a need to rehome an animal my friends usually call me first because they know I can be trusted and will take care of them (which is how I ended up with 2 cats of the same breed within a short period of time. Another friend has just asked me to take her 13 year old female Tabby for the same reason. She knows she will be well cared for should I decide to take her). I am currently a stay at home mom looking for extra income. While my youngest daughter is in school I am available on the weekends (Friday evening - Sunday evening) and may be able to extend into the week if needed in the future. Following the owners' instructions is first and foremost. I can walk them, crate them if needed, feed, play with, exercise, medicate, bathe (small animals), and keep them thoroughly entertained!
About: Hello! I have been taking care of pets, my own, for 17 years. I grew up with cats that were my responsibility, and am now a dog owner. I have fostered puppies and currently care for a (near) senior dog. I am pretty flexible with my schedule, and with advanced notice, I can usually meet most requests made. I do take time to travel with my dog on weekends, so I may not be available for weekend boarding. I have a room dedicated as a dog space in my home, and I have the ability to crate dogs as needed. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I have a tie out cord and leash for dogs that need more attention outdoors.
About: I have a perfect 5 star rating across all 30 sits on trusted house sitters app but now wanting to start on rover! I have looked after pets for past 4-5 years and I will do everything I can to make sure your pets and home are flooded with love during my stay. I am currently back home on break from soccer so I am very free for the next few months to care for your pets and home! I have a fenced yard and a very safe home. Your pets will be safe and loved always while they are here no matter what.

Daniel M.
“Danny is amazing with pets of all types of personalities! His whole family is full of animal lovers (some working in the veterinary and animal care industries) and he has recently been working really hard to become a dog trainer. He has an eclectic but well trained bunch of pets at home and, whenever I bring my dog over, he always includes her in all the play time and training. My dog can be a bit fearful at times, but he's helped her a lot with her confidence!”
Rhiannon H.
“Rhiannon has cared for my German Shepherds several times while I was away on business. She treated them like her own dogs. My female was expecting and went into labor. Rhiannon sprang into action and helped my dog deliver her pups! She is also exceptional at organizing their grooming and vet appointments for me, as I have a very busy schedule. I would highly recommend her services. She is very professional and dependable.”
