House Sitting in Sturgeon

“Hannah was amazing with our pups. She was at our house during a storm which our one dog is afraid of and she made him feel safe and comfortable. Hannah is communicative and friendly. We know our pups were happy with her while we were away. We will be using Hannah's services again”

About: I’ve learned and taken on responsibilities caring for animals, specifically dogs, at a young age. Nacho, my past rescue dog, lived to be about 15 years of age. He needed quite a lot of care in his old age, including joint supplements, pimobendan for his heart, and other treatments. I currently have two cats named Kirby and Sam. I would love to have a dog, but my living situation doesn’t allow currently for the quality of life they deserve. I work full-time as an aesthetician, but with some days off, so if you need a day or a time that you don’t see we may be able to work something out:) I ensure a clean environment with no hazardous materials around, ample enrichment, and all the love humanly possible. Full of healthy food and treats obviously🤪

“Lyla went above and beyond for our two dogs (mini poodle and pitbull mix) while we were away for a long weekend. She came to meet them a few days before we left and took them on a walk so they could acclimate to her. She kept us updated with messages and pictures, took them on two walks per day, did tricks with them, and kept them safe and entertained the whole weekend. We'll absolutely be booking with her again!!”

About: I’ve had my own dog for 12 years, and have been working with dogs for years at a doggy daycare! I love to hang out, play with them, and ensure they’re happy and well taken care of!😁 I have lots of space for them to play, an awesome family who helps and a nice neighborhood to take them on walks as well! Comfortable, spacious, clean and loving environment!😁 I currently already work with dogs part-time at the dog stop (doggy daycare)! I have my own pup as well, and have plenty of time any day of the week for dogs to board! I have a spacious and clean home for them to play and hang out in, a nice big yard and a great neighborhood for walks! 😁 in a clients home as well as my own.. I’ll spend lots of time hanging with, playing with and keeping them company! Take them for walks, give them a nice big bed with a warm blanket, get them nice clean water and lots of love and comfort! 😁I’m also good at reading dog behavior and body language, and can calmly attend to whatever they need!

“Bethany was great with my two yorkie boys. I was hesitant to leave them with someone new, but she took great care of them and updated me with photos and messages throughout her sit. Will definitely be utilizing her services again!”

“Katelyn was great! She was very good with communication and taking care of Klaus. She sent pictures and checked in which we definitely appreciated to put our minds at ease. We will definitely use her again.”

About: I took excellent care of my dog who just passed away at the age of 16. I walked him every day. I gave him lots of affection and care. I currently do not have a job. I’ll have plenty of time to give your dog love and affection. My dog lived a long healthy life. I can give them plenty of care by playing with them and petting them. I can also take them for walks when they need that.

“Wonderful experience with Ava! She's a terrific and reliable house sitter, and took great care of our kiddos while we were away. You can tell from meeting her that she's got a huge heart. She's already lined up for the next time we go away.”

“Chelsea did a great job taking care of my animal family! My dog has special needs and she handled them perfectly! Also my dog instantly liked her, he could tell she’s an animal lover and I knew he’d be in good hands. She keeled me posted on how things were going which made it easier while being away! Highly recommend her!❤️😁”

“Trevor was the absolute BEST. He took care of our dog and cat while on vacation. We got frequent updates on their condition and lots of photos. We will definitely be using him again.”

“Amazing!!! Our dog was so happy to have such care while we were out of town. I would highly recommend her and we will certainly be using her again this summer!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years, with the majority of my hands-on experience in the last five years. I currently care for my own dog, Layla, and have also fostered, so I’m comfortable working with different temperaments, routines, and energy levels. I’ve potty trained three dogs, including my own, a foster dog, and a puppy I raised for about six months before transitioning him to my parents. That experience gave me a strong understanding of consistency, structure, and reinforcing good habits. I’ve provided both boarding and in-home pet sitting for multiple households, including homes with multiple dogs and homes with both dogs and cats. Whether pets are staying with me or I’m caring for them in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I understand how important consistency, patience, and communication are while owners are away. I’m reliable, attentive, and communicative throughout stays, and I treat every pet like my own. My dog Layla may accompany me during some house sitting stays depending on the pets and circumstances. She is friendly, social, and has done very well with other dogs during previous stays. I work full-time during weekdays, so I’m typically out of the home for about 9 hours during the day. Pets in my care should be comfortable with that schedule, and I make sure they are exercised, settled, and comfortable before I leave, with plenty of attention, walks, and interaction when I return home. On weekends, I’m much more available and hands-on, which allows for extra walks, playtime, enrichment, and cuddle time. Whether I’m boarding, doing daycare, or staying in a client’s home, I aim to maintain each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I provide a safe, clean, and structured environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, behavior, and specific needs so I can provide consistent care and maintain the environment they’re used to. I live in an apartment with multiple grassy areas nearby for walks and bathroom breaks, along with an on-site dog park for additional exercise and enrichment. I tailor activity levels to each dog’s age, energy level, and comfort. I’m experienced with dogs of different temperaments and can reinforce routines such as feeding schedules, crate training, potty habits, and calm household behavior if needed. Whether pets are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in theirs, I prioritize safety, communication, cleanliness, and creating a calm environment where pets can relax and feel at home.

“Hannah is responsive and communicated well. She was available on short notice and was able to do a meet and greet prior to watching the gals this weekend. She sent pictures and updates and left the house as she found it.”

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was little and have always loved them as I got older I started to really enjoy taking care of them and have shown to be reliable to my grandparents and family friends when they need help with their dogs with walking, sitting, even bathing. I’m completely free every day except for Sunday mornings for church but other than that I am available whenever needed. And I am able to respond quickly to questions when needed. I have a pretty big un-fenced yard and a lot of places and trails near me for short to long walks. And can easily crate your dog if needed.

“There is no rating high enough for Sarah. From pre-booking to the home visit, to watching our home and our fur babies while we were on vacation, Sarah was amazing. Her situation was unique that in addition to taking care of our adult cats, we asked her to take care of a (somewhat friendly) mama cat and her 5 week old kittens. Sarah graciously offered her time for 24/7 care. And of course, just when we thought all was going smoothly, a hornet appeared in our finished basement which is unusual. This is where mama and babies are located. Then another one appeared - VERY unusual. When the third one appeared, not so far from the kittens, Sarah sprang into action and, together, we figured out a safe solution to draw any potential bees inside the home to outside the home. Sarah was a real trooper and took care of the home and pets like they were her own. No more bees appeared and life returned to “normal”. Well, as normal as can be for a home with cats and kittens. I can vouch for Sarah and she will be our first choice for future house and pet care needs. Sarah is friendly, trustworthy, and an excellent communicator and our fur babies loved her.”

About: I’ve grown up with animals and pet sat since I can remember. I’ve helped train puppies, care for elderly dogs, and have provided the same love and care for all of the furry friends that I would for my own! I am comfortable around all dogs and cats and am willing to adapt and learn how to best take care of your animal. I work a typical 8-hour day in the city, but am happy to work around my work schedule to give your animal the care that they need. I follow directions, put things back where I found them, and don’t go looking in places I wasn’t invited. I will make sure everything is clean and tidy before I leave!

“Gabrielle was communicative and took good care of our cats. She also made sure to send updates and pictures.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs so I know how to take care of them and keep them on a routine. I’m used to walks, feeding, and playtime, and I’m good with different personalities. I’ll treat your dog like my own and make sure they’re happy and safe! 🐶😊 I’m a student athlete so my schedule can vary, but I have a lot of flexibility during the day and evenings. I’m active and used to being on a routine, so I can fit walks and care in easily. I’m very used to being around dogs and understanding their behavior. I’ll follow any instructions you leave closely, keep your dog on their normal routine, and make sure they feel comfortable and safe. I’m attentive and won’t cut corners when it comes to care.

“This was my first time using Rover and I am glad that I booked with Cassandra! I was nervous to use the app at first but after meeting her and her family I felt very comfortable leaving my puppy with her while I went out of town. I could tell right away that she is very knowledge about dogs and my puppy Mia loved her and her family! She sent updates and pictures which was really nice as well. I would definitely book with Cassandra again!”
