Dog Sitting Swansea

About: Hi, I’m Jen! I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have experience taking care of everything from high energy pups to Senior snuggIers. I love being outdoors and I’m an active walker. I focus on safe, engaging walks tailored to your dog’s energy level. If your fur baby needs to burn off some energy, I’m your gal! I’m punctual, active and can’t wait to meet your furry best friend! Last minute bookings available Message me for a “meet & greet” I’ve recently resigned from the hustle bustle of corporate life. This next chapter in life I’m going to spend doing something I truly love and have passion for! Pets! Safety of your pet is #1. Communication of what your pets needs, likes and dislikes are is very important. Pet sitting isn’t just a hobby or a job, it’s a responsibility!

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life: dogs, cats, bunnies, chickens, you name it! My smallest dog ever was a chihuahua and my largest is a cane corso. My home was also a foster home and we had many litters of puppies and kittens come through on their way to their forever families! I work full time so I am primarily available on weekends, but I do work from home once a week if you need a last minute walk or check in on a pet! I am happy to take your pet outside, feed them, play with them, go for a walk or to get some exercise! I am unable to take them in my home but happy to work with you to fit you and your pet’s needs.

“ariel was great with my kitty! her reviews were thorough and lots of great, cute pictures. super reliable and trustworthy- definitely recommend!”

About: Hi, I'm Ella! I'm a lifelong animal lover based in Rhode Island, and I genuinely believe pets are family. My background is in public service and childcare, which has taught me the importance of responsibility, communication, patience, and creating a safe environment for the people (and pets!) who depend on me. Whether your pet loves long walks, endless games of fetch, snuggling on the couch, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I'm happy to adjust to their individual personality and needs. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone new, so I make communication a priority. I'll always provide regular updates, photos, and plenty of reassurance while you're away. I have experience caring for animals with different personalities and energy levels, and I'm comfortable following specific feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and household rules. When your pet is with me, they'll receive lots of attention, plenty of affection, and the same level of care I'd want for my own pet. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family members! I work full-time for the State of Rhode Island and work remotely on Mondays and Fridays. I'm also currently pursuing my Master's degree online through the University of Rhode Island, which gives me additional flexibility throughout the week. I'm happy to work with your pet's routine and schedule to make sure they receive the care and attention they need. Whether it's a quick drop-in visit, a long walk, or extra playtime, I'm committed to providing dependable and personalized care. I take the safety and comfort of both pets and their homes very seriously. Since I will be caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to be respectful of the space, follow the owner’s instructions carefully, and keep everything clean, secure, and well cared for. I also have experience working as a Property Manager for Universal Services LLC, which has given me experience with maintaining properties, keeping spaces safe and clean, and being trusted with other people’s homes and belongings. I understand the importance of being responsible, reliable, and respectful when someone is trusting you with their home. My goal is to make sure your pets feel comfortable and cared for while also giving you peace of mind that your home is in good hands while you’re away.

“Ashley has been so great to our cats and we will continue to book with her as long as we are in this area. There is no reason to book anyone else!”

About: Dogs have been the heartbeat of my life for as long as I can remember. From my childhood pup who lived to be 17, to my first adult dog who gave me 16 years of unforgettable adventure, I have deep experience caring for canines at every stage of life—from playful puppies to gentle seniors. Currently, I’m the proud parent of two incredible doodles, Macchiato and Noisette. They are well-socialized daycare veterans who absolutely love welcoming new friends into our pack! After a rewarding 25-year career as a hairstylist, I am slowly pivoting to include my passion for detail and customer care toward pet care services. I can’t wait to treat your pups like family! With advanced notice, my schedule is incredibly flexible. When your pups are staying with me, their comfort and safety are my top priorities—I ensure they are never left alone for more than 4 to 5 hours at any time and provide tailored care to each dogs needs. To make things as convenient as possible for you, I also offer pickup and drop-off services. I proudly service the Aquidneck Island and East Bay communities, including Newport, Middletown, Portsmouth, Bristol, and Tiverton. Your pups will be treated exactly like members of my own family. I live on a spacious half-acre of fully fenced yard, offering plenty of room for your dogs to stretch their legs, zoom around, or just relax in the sun ( new PUP DECK coming soon). As a dedicated dog parent myself, I completely understand how tough it can be to leave your fur babies with someone else. That is why I am highly receptive to your specific routines, preferences, and instructions. I pride myself on being a clear communicator and highly dependable because I know that when it comes to your pets, trust is absolutely everything.

“First time using this app!! Latifa was fantastic, I felt at ease knowing that my cats were taken care . I was given daily check ups and pics. I would highly recommend using Rover & LATIFA A.”

About: I have taken care of pets starting at the age of 9 when my parents got me my first puppy. I had raised and trained him on my own, had responsibility of restocking and refilling food and water, as well as grooming, bathing, and bathroom use. Flash forward to when it came to my own dogs senior years, I had learned to understand the extra care that comes along with that. At the age of 13 I had started pet sitting for family and friends. Whether it be walking next door to my neighbors, taking care of a pet in my home, or having my mom drive me someone’s household, I’ve always enjoyed taking care of and playing with pets. At the age of 16 when I had gotten my license, I had started offering to do overnights at peoples homes for their pets and had driven myself to homes multiple times in a day to care for them. I think it’s important to be present, playful, and all around loving to each and every pet. I love to meet new pets and prioritize creating comfort between the animal and I. I’m currently working full time but have weekday evenings open and weekends open!! I have pets myself as home and pet care fits into my routine very naturally. Thankfully I have family to help out with my pets when I’m not there and can give full care to other pets when needed! I have grown up having dogs my entire life (Also having chickens, geese, and bunnies). Being a pet owner gives perspective in terms of creating a sound environment. When I go on vacation or need someone to care for my animals, I look for qualities that many others would. Trust, responsibility, and genuine care. When roles reverse, I behold these qualities to ensure that whoever I am caring for receives this level of comfort from these qualities.

“Ixia was absolutely wonderful with our Pointer/Pit mix, Crimson. This was our first time using Rover, and our first time leaving our dog for an extended period of time. (We had to take a trip out of state on short notice.) From the get-go, Ixia was very professional and attentive during our phone consultation - taking notes, checking details, learning the little intricacies of Crimson's routines. Crimson also has a torn ACL, so special care has to be taken during daily activities to ensure the injury doesn't worsen. Ixia was very reliable, responsive, and communicative with us the entire time. She was on time for every visit, sent us pictures of our pup, played with her, spent lots of time in the yard, and even went above and beyond to accommodate some extra drop-ins we hadn't originally planned. We were very impressed and thankful for the loving care that she provided our animals and by her professionalism and communication. 11/10 recommend, and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future. Thank you, Ixia!”

About: I've had a dog in my life for the major majority of it. I've had 2 Shitzus, a German Shephard and an Akita. Quite the range. I traveled across the country with an Akita and that was such a great experience. I am very patient by nature and will care for you furry friend and give them all my attention and love. I have a somewhat flexible schedule. There are 3, sometimes 4 days a week where I’d be away for 6-7 hours. I like to be as transparent on everything. I’m not concerned about the dog having an accident in the house, it’s more of making sure they won’t be overly stressed out or anxious at that amount of time. I have a very secure fenced in yard that your pet will enjoy. There is a park directly across the street as well and I will also walk your dog around the Elmhurst neighborhood. I have a modest sized home with hardwood floors. Your pup is allowed on the furniture if its ok with you. A tired dog is a happy dog and I plan to play with your dog inside and outside the home. Your dog(s) or cat(s) will be my top priority. Other than work a few days a week which is stated above I’d be spending plenty of time playing and relaxing with your fur babies. I have a fenced in yard and live in a safe neighborhood. I have outdoor camera security system as well. I will take great care of your pet.

About: I've had several pets since I was young, but many of which I had to let go due to frequent moving and lack of accommodation. My forever friend however was a chihuahua belonging to my aunt/uncle that I loved dearly but unfortunately passed from old age. I have experience in basic command and obedience training. My main skillset is my patience, I believe that's a key trait for anyone looking to care for pets as they do require a lot of supervision and mistakes are inevitable until they can fully develop self-control and obedience through careful and loving training and attention. Currently, studying to obtain a skillset in programing, I have additional time on hand when outside of studies which I can use for additional income. Studies are at my pace, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care and still fulfill my obligations. I'll ask some intake questions about any special care or concerns owners might have and follow up with additional questions about the pets regular habits. I can provide most forms of care, like a safe environment, regular feedings, medicine administration, basic training, bathroom breaks, and just general company. I have a yard, though it is partially open, but nearby is a fenced park that I can visit for those comfortable with their dog socializing with other canines.

About: I grew up living with dogs. Since I was 10 years old I have helped family members with their dogs, as well as take care of my own. For the past 4 years I have worked with dogs of various sizes, ages, and personalities. During those 4 years I worked in a dog daycare and boarding facility while also doing previous dog sitting jobs. My senior dog has a heart murmur so she needs special care to live a healthy, happy life: my younger dog (who is 4 now) is deaf, so I trained him to understand sign language in order to communicate with him. He loves doing tricks and is an incredibly smart dog. I am available all days of the week for dog sitting, walking and overnight stays! I have two dogs of my own but they are low maintenance, making it convenient for me to do pet sitting for people who need it. I play with dogs who love to play and/or do activities that they love to do while they’re in my care for the day. That may include playing fetch, going for walks, or playing tug of war with a toy.
