Pet Sitting in Stillwater

About: I have lived with cats since I was 14 years old and have looked after cats and dogs independently since I was 16. I am comfortable with administering medications from my time working at Grand Avenue Veterinary Clinic. I work about 12 hours a week spread over two days at a museum and attend graduate school online. This makes me very flexible to meet your pets needs! As I will be in your and your pets home, making sure everyone is comfortable with me in the space! My goal is to make your pet as comfortable as possible while you are away! If you have any specific concerns about going on walks or interacting with other humans and pets please let me know so I can abide by what works best for your family. I have been trained on how to pill animals who are nervous about medication to ensure that your pet recieves their medication and remains safe and supported in the process. If you should ask me to take care of your home I make sure to grab the mail daily and follow the motto of leave it better than you found it! I want to have you to come home to a clean house.

“Gabriela did a fantastic job with our senior cat while we were away. Our cat is very sensitive and we were worried about leaving him but returned home to find him well cared for and very content. Gabriela kept us feeling at ease with daily updates and was easy to communicate with from the start. We had an excellent experience with Gabriela and absolutely recommend her!”

“I was really nervous to leave my puppy home for the first time, but Travis more than eased my anxiety. He did such a fantastic job & exceeded my expectations! I loved getting pictures of my little pup too. Travis is very quick to respond, & very reliable. I immediately booked him for next week! Thank you Travis!”

About: While I don't have traditional professional experience, I would often pet sit for my neighbors growing up. I love animals, and I look forward to helping take care of yours! I have a flexible job. I have plenty of time in the evenings (or on weekends) to stop by and check in on your fur babies or take them for walks! When I'm checking on your pets I'll make sure to follow any instructions you've left and also make sure that your pets seem happy and healthy. If you're ok with it, my kids might come with to give some extra love and attention. We would, of course, discuss this first!

About: My love for pets is what sparked me to enter the wonderful world of Rover. I have been a dog walker/dog sitter for 10+ years. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your "kids". I grew up with a household of furry friends, one who really impacted my life was a Teddy Bear named Rosey. She was my best friend and was so protective and sweet. She was the reason I became interested in working with animals, and I couldn't imagine my life without them. They bring so much joy and happiness to my life. Seeing their little faces everyday just puts a smile on my face! I am a soon to be full-time second year optometry student, but my summer is open for doggy-filled fun and care. Up until school begins I am available full time. I live in a small neighborhood with a lot of walking paths and grass patches throughout. I live across the street from a dog park, and am willing to crate pets as well

About: I have essentially grown up with dogs my whole life. I love animals and dogs are my favorite animal. I currently have a Bernese Mountain dog and a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever, but I've had 4 dogs total. I have taken them to training sessions and took my Toller to agility lessons as well. I have experience house sitting and pet sitting for my neighbors and friends (up to 5 dogs at once). Additionally, very active with animal volunteering with roles at Pet Haven Co., Coco's Heart Dog Rescue, and currently, the Hawaiian Humane Society. I'm a college student back for the summer with a lot of free time. Looking to get as many gigs as I can and I love taking care of animals. I'm a great planner and my availability is set for the rest of the time I'm back so I can definitely work with you if you have any specific requests. I'm flexible and have a car for reliable and timely transportation. Looking forward to meeting with you! I am free to go to people's homes and take care of their pets from feeding them, letting them out, playing, and taking them on walks. I am also familiar with most household chores and would contribute to maintaining cleanliness and organization in the house. I will require all the information needed up front and anything important listed. I insist upon a meet and greet beforehand, even if it's brief, to ensure that the pet and their family are a good fit for my services. My availability is very important for me to assess as I will not take on any jobs that I know I can't commit 100% to. Feel free to ask any questions you may have!

About: Hi, I’m Ali. I am a mom of 2 boys & one dog named Tommy. We live right outside of Stillwater on a beautiful 10 acre lot. I am very passionate about pets, especially dogs. I have grown up my whole life with dogs & do some fostering for Cocos Heart Dog Rescue! I would love to be a companion for your pet during the day to ensure they get the exercise they deserve! I can meet your animals needs whether it be a walk in the neighborhood, at a park, or playing at home! I provide updates during and after each visit if preferred! I currently work a hybrid schedule, so I am happy to assist most times throughout the day. I can’t wait to meet your pups! I currently work remotely from home and would be able to take requests most times throughout the day, except for evenings (with the exception if communicated early enough) We have a 10 acre lot and are constantly outside. I make sure clients pets are on a leash while outside with us at all times unless specified by the owner. Clients pets are welcome on the furniture if they currently do that at their own homes, but I mindfully respect boundaries that clients provide.

About: I love dogs no matter the size or personality! I have walked dogs of all different breeds, I am currently fostering a dog in college trying to find him a forever home! If your dog needs to go for more of a run then walk that is no problem I love going on runs with them. If you choose me to walk your dog they will get the energy out and be ready and cuddly for when you get home! This summer I will be available on Thursdays and Fridays for what ever your pet needs, whether its drop in visits or a good walk to stretch their legs or get some energy. I also have a cat that I love dearly and would be more than happy to stop in and take care of what ever your cat needs. I have a good sized yard that isn't completely fenced in but a stake in the ground would do the trick. There aren't that many other dogs in my neighborhood which would be a perk if your pet didn't care for other animals.

“Would highly recommend Carissa. Very sweet and great with our dogs. Our dogs have never been left with anyone besides family. She stayed in contact with me the entire time we were gone. I was able to enjoy my trip knowing our dogs were in caring hands.”

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life and some fishy friends as well. I’ve only done drop in visits for four-legged friends, but would love to take care of more! I also have a lot of experience with taking care of small aquarium fish (ex. vacuuming their tank, changing their filter, etc). as well! I currently am working a part time job, and my shifts vary weekly. I’m always available after 6:30 P.M. on weekdays and almost always available all day on weekends. While I’m currently only offering drop in visits, making sure your companion is safe and comfortable with me is most important. I make sure to always thoroughly watch over your friends and watch their body language.

About: I’ve worked with everything from playful puppies to laid-back cats and curious kittens. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and I make sure your pets stay comfortable and happy in their routine. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just company, I’ve got it covered! 🐾 Currently a student a St. Thomas but am usually free Friday through Sunday for sitting and week days for walks! I will become free everyday of the week in the summer. In your home, I stick to your pet’s routine. Whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I keep things low stress for them and always clean up after myself.

“Heavin was awesome to work with when I had to go to the hospital to have my baby and she came and took care of our dog on short notice, keeping him calm while we worked to bring home our new family member! ♥️”

About: I have lived with a dog consistently for the last 23 years. All of my dogs have come from rescue's which means I am familiar with dogs who have anxiety, trust issues, reactive behavior, slow to warm up, etc. I am an elementary school teacher who has the majority of my summer free. In July, I will not be available in the mornings, because I will be teaching summer school. I care for pets in others homes by slowly entering, allowing them to sniff me first, saying hello in a calm voice, and getting down on their level.

About: I have cared for animals ever since I was a child. I am a caretaker by nature after years of working in healthcare. I am now a stay at home mom to a one-year-old and a 12-year-old. We also have a playful three-year-old yellow lab female. I am available throughout the day and night to provide care and attention. Can watch at my house or yours. We do have a fenced in yard. I am a stay at home mom so perfect for giving your pet all the love and attention they need. I am also available most weekends. I have a fenced in yard. We have a three year-old female yellow lab who is fixed. I can also leave her home with the family if care is needed at your house, I do have a one year-old who is attached to my hip most of the time.

About: Hi there, I’m bekah! I grew up in the county and am never afraid of getting dirty. I love being active, spending time in the outdoors and being surrounded by loving animals! My family used to have horses, goats, cats, and dogs. Our beautiful Australian Shepard, named Ginger, recently passed. She is missed dearly. I also have experience dog sitting two big lab mixes as well as house sitting. I love a good running buddy but am also always down for some doggie snuggles! I hope to make your pets feel comfortable, happy and healthy while you are away! Keeping things tidy and organized is a must for me. I take the responsibility of dog and/or house sitting very seriously. Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have! Currently, I work from home; and it’s a flexible job (graphic design!) I love to be outside after work and all that is missing is a pet in my life. I will care for your pet to the best of my ability. I would treat them as if they were my own. I will listen/watch to see what their needs are, take them out for exercise and bathroom breaks. I will feed them on time, and of course, I would love to play and snuggle with them.

About: Hi! I’m Leah, I’m a stay at home mom. I have a 14,9 and almost 2 year old. I live in Stillwater and have a cavapoo dog (Toby) and a black haired cat (Sasha). I know the worry that comes with having a stranger watching your fur babies as they are family but rest assured that they will be right at home with us! As I mentioned I’m a stay at home mom so they will not be alone and they will be absolutely well taken care of! My older kids are a huge help and love to play with the fur babies! I live in a very safe neighborhood near multiple parks. Walks will be a given unless instructed otherwise. If need be we have a crate to separate or give space if needed.

“Ella was so sweet and patient, I’m very thankful that I didn’t have to worry about my fur babies while I was away!”
