House Sitting Stevenson

“Callae was prompt and polite. She took very good care of my Shayla and was respectful of our space. I would love to use her again when we are in her area.”

About: Hi there! I've been a dog sitter for going on 10 years, mostly for close family and friends but I'm looking to branch out. I love spending time with furry friends and when the weather's nice I enjoy getting them outside for play or walks. I'm a trustworthy sitter and I've even been tasked with giving dogs medicine or shots and have even taken dogs on routine vet visits while their parents are away. I work 3 days a week (Monday, Tuesday and Saturday) so I have 4 days where I can play and spend quality time with the pet(s) I'm watching. I try to keep the pet(s) routine as close to normal as I can in their home. I know it can be stressful when their parents are gone and I want it to be a comfortable situation for not only the pet but for the parents as well.

About: I have pet sit and house sit for a short and extended period of time with experience caring for dogs and cats (from 8lbs to 100lbs pet). I have experience caring for a puppy, senior dog, senior cat, pets with separation anxiety, and administering medication for the pets that I'm looking after. I also have experience taking care of multiple pets including dog/cat mix household. I'm an active person with deep care for animals and the earth. I'm gentle and patient with the pets that I take care of, and they're my top priority when caring for them. Your pet will get all the love and attention (or space if they prefer that) when I care for them. I'm a Life Designer and running my own business allows me to have the flexibility of time and location. I work remotely and currently nomadic based in the PNW. I work for a few hours a day and manage my own schedule. When caring for pets in my client's home, the comfort, safety, and happiness of the pets I'm caring for is my priority. I'm also a responsible homeowner, so I take care of my client's house just like my own. When I spend overnight to house/pet sit, my clients can expect coming home to a happy pets that are well-cared-for and a clean house! I'm communicative and organized, I send regular text/photo/video updates to my clients about their pets that I'm looking after.

“Frank took great care of Ziggy and Leia and our fishies/plants! Our apartment was super clean when we came home and it was clear that they spent a great deal of attention and care to our home and our babies. I would definitely hire them again!”

“Jennifer was absolutely wonderful! She took incredible care of my dogs and cat sending regular updates and photos that gave me total peace of mind while I was away. She is professional, reliable, and genuinely loves animals. Added bonus is my house was spotless.i can’t recommend her enough and will definitely be booking her again”

About: Personal experience with wide variety of animals including dogs, cats, and many totally normal animals that rover won’t allow me to reference in my experience. Willing and able to watch and care for large and small animals. Rates vary depending on number of animals and species. I currently stay at home and my children and grown, allowing me flexibility and availability to care for animals round the clock, meeting difficult medication schedules or potty breaks. I offer services in clients homes only and will provide food and water on schedule, dishwashing for pet dishes as needed, regular dog walking/poop removal, litter box cleaning, medication administration as needed, brushing and playtime. I am also able to provide care for farm and exotic animals with specific care instructions.

“We were pleased with Kiernan's care of our dog in our home. She followed our instructions, left our home in great shape, and even laundered her sheets and remade the bed. She took our dog on two walks per day, as we requested, in spite of rain and windy weather. She stayed in contact with us, sending photos and notes on Chiqui. We appreciated the great job she did, and we would hire Kiernan and Jay again.”

Patricia N.

“Thank you, Jen, for doing an outstanding job caring for my dogs and my home. I am impressed with your ability to relate to my dogs and to follow instructions. They immediately felt comfortable with you. I also appreciate how experienced you are with managing them on their walks and in the house. After you and I walked them together, I had no worries! When I need a sitter, I will call you!”

Dixie M.

“Sierra was perfect for my high-energy puppy. She completely understood how demanding a young dog can be, making sure he got plenty of exercise and playtime. The photo updates she sent were fantastic and so fun to receive. I came home to a spotless house and a very tired, happy dog. Highly, highly recommend her to anyone!”

Brett A.

“We had a wonderful experience with Marie and would absolutely book her again. She took excellent care of our 8-year-old indoor/outdoor tabby, and when we returned from our trip, he was relaxed, happy, and clearly very well loved. She sent us regular updates with photos and videos, spent lots of time playing with him, and even bought him some new toys. It was obvious that the two of them really bonded. She also kept an eye on an old wound he had and was very attentive to his well-being throughout our time away. She truly went above and beyond. When our cat stayed out later than usual, she walked around the neighborhood calling for him until he came home. We really appreciated how seriously she took his safety and how much she clearly cared about him. She has a big heart for animals and a very good understanding of cats. She even had some thoughtful suggestions about where we might place his food and water to make things work even better for him. She took wonderful care of our home as well. Mail and packages were brought inside, our plants were watered, and everything was extremely tidy when we returned. She even left us some fresh blueberries as a welcome-home snack, which was such a thoughtful touch. Overall, we really couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Marie is caring, responsible, communicative, and willing to go the extra mile. She will absolutely be at the top of our list the next time we need a house sitter, and we would recommend her without hesitation.”

“Starla saved our butts when we desperately needed a sitter. My wife and I were travelling out of town, and it just so happened that we had no one available to watch our reactive dog, Momo. We had just moved to the area and were wary of Momo's comfort, but Starla was more than happy to meet Momo and get her comfortable with her. On our trip, Starla sent constant updates, and Momo seemed super at ease and happy with Starla. While we were busy on our trip, it was fantastic knowing Momo was taken care of. We came home to a happy and healthy dog. Thank you again, Starla!”

About: We are a husband-wife team that both work from home and love dogs and cats. We walk our dog(s) daily for a 3 to 4 mile walk, and shorter routes can be done for dogs that can't go long distance. Happy to house sit your fur baby/babies or just provide breaks for your pup or feed the cat. Our motto is... A tired dog is a good dog! We have flexible schedules. We are comfortable with giving meds if needed. Good with large breeds and light training during walks. Happy to reinforce whatever training / skills you are working on. We sometimes foster dogs, so schedule can be unpredictable at times. We both work from home currently, so have the ability to do drop-in visits morning, afternoon or evening. Soon-to-be retired for one of us, so that will increase availability quite a bit. We are not currently offering boarding in our home due to having a dog-selective large breed at this time. Happy to pet-sit in your home, usually just one of us.

About: Besides my experience with my own pets I began volunteering at the Oregon Humane Society at 17. After that I went on to dog sit for various different families part time for around 3 years. I have a big window of availability currently. I’m going back to school in the fall, but until then I am just working part time. I work for my grandpa, so my schedule is super flexible! When I dog sit in the clients home I will follow your instructional list for feeding/walks/ activities/ grooming ect. I have car so I can take your pup to nearby parks/ dog parks if you would like, or just for a classic stroll around your neighborhood if you prefer. For clients that would prefer I take car if you dog in my home I have a fenced in back yard and live near several park so we can go on several adventures. Or just chill at home if you have a senior/ more low energy dog. My only deal breaker is that your dog isn’t reactive towards cats.

“Alexia was very responsive during the coordination & scheduling phase, excellent with communicating updates and asking questions as needed while watching our puppy, and handled our new, energetic puppy very well.”

About: I have been caring for animals for most of my life. We had 2 Doberman when I was a baby which led to me always having a dog or cat in my life. I'd love to meet yours! I will be the only walker handling your pets through this profile. I am available for short, elderly walks to long, youthful puppy runs. Ready to talk, feel free to shoot a message over to talk about your needs for your animals :D I will be the only walker handling your pets through this profile. I like to ensure your pet has a clean, safe environment. All hazards will be picked up promptly, as well as any potty spotted in the yard or accidents in the house.

“We booked James for a dual job of house and dog sitting, and he was great! He kept us updated, checked in and our Bowie loved him to death- and Bowie isn’t easy to win over! James is clean, trustworthy, honest, and solves his own issues with respect and thoughtfulness. Highly recommend him and we will be repeat customers!”

“Melissa did a fantastic job taking care of my 3 dogs and cat. Highly recommend and will gladly have her back to watch them again.”

“Kendall was an incredibly good and thoughtful caregiver to our dogs. Our lab is 13.5 years and is entering an anxiety phase when we are away and Kendall was just what we needed to be able to travel without feeling like we were abandoning him. We were in a pinch last minute to find someone because our usual dog/house sitter was away. She exceeded expectations and left our house better than she found it. A truly positive experience!”

Shannon B.

“Emily is fantastic! She spent lots of time cuddling with my puppy and giving him the attention he needs! She sent updates and cute pictures and was very responsive! She even cleaned up and washed the sheets before I got back! I would rehire her in a heartbeat ??”

About: I am newer to Rover, but I’ve worked + volunteered in animal husbandry for several years. I’ve cared for a wide range of animals through pet sitting, wildlife rehabilitation and veterinary care. I grew up with kitties, but I now have a dog of my own that has taught me the sweetness of canine companionship. I am currently available full time for pet sitting. I am very flexible and happy to accommodate specific schedules and needs whether it simply be check ins, overnight stays or something in between. I listen closely to my clients needs and make sure pets feel at ease when their family is away. I take care to maintain consistency and routine to keep them as comfortable as possible. I live in an apartment but try to get outdoors with my pup as much as possible whether that be through walks to the local park or longer weekend hiking adventures.
