House Sitting Sweeny

About: I’m in my mid 30s and been responsible for at least one pet since I was about 8. I love all animals and have personally had cats, dogs and fish. I graduated from A&M Galveston with a degree in Marine Biology and am currently working with marine mammals. I have experience in dog and cat training, this includes harness/leash and behavioral. Because of my degree I have a background in animal behavior which I use to help talk to and understand animals. I have worked with pets, dolphins and wolves in the past. I absolutely love animals and find it the most rewarding teaching and interacting with them. Please let me help you love your pet. I currently don’t have any set in stone commitments but I have the occasional volunteer project but can work around any Rover commitment. Let me know what you need and we can figure something out! I have a truck so it’s easy to go somewhere safe for your pet if your neighborhood doesn’t have a good play spot. If I am staying at a clients place can take the dog to a dog park if there isn't one nearby.

“Chase took great care of our senior dog. The house was also in the same condition we left it in, which was very mich appreciated.”

“We were so happy to find Keliann! She did a wonderful job looking after our fur-babies! It is easy to see she has a genuine love of animals and we will be using her agin in the future!”

About: I’ve had experience with many animals of different species for many years and can take care of all needs. I was a dog trainer and certified in dog and small animal wellness. I am currently a pet care specialist and do all that I can for all and their pets. I also have a degree in environmental science and pet wellness. I also like to applaud myself for customer service skills and being personable with everyone I meet. I will talk to you like I’ve known you forever and I strive to be someone those can be comfortable around. 😊 As a pet care specialist and pet owner myself, my schedule ranges from 8-9 am for spot cleaning and feeding, then around 12 I do pet checks, and around 5-6 is when I do final checks. For dogs, it follows the same structure with added enrichment and outside time in between. I have one dog and one puppy who spend time mostly outside and come in for breaks and food/snacks. I have a cat who eats twice a day and will occasionally be put in his stroller to go outside and enjoy the fresh air lol. And I have 2 guinea pigs who eat twice a day and will come out of their cage for enrichment and play time.

About: *After your first successful booking with me, I lock in your rates for all future bookings so your rate stays low as my loyal customer, even if I raise my rates later. Regularly care for my own dog (beautiful lab/pit mix) and have had dogs (& other pets) all of my life. I love the bond shared between me and my pets and that experience that I get to pass along to my children, who are helping care for our senior dog. Our pets have always been part of our family, and I will treat your pet & home with the same attention and care that I have always shown to my own. The world needs more love and respect -- certainly among us as humans -- and I believe our pets can teach us that lesson every day if we're willing to see it.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care I have for animals. While this is my first year on Rover, I’ve been around and taking care of animals my whole life. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I want both you and your pet to feel comfortable and know they’re in good hands. Im currently working on an online business where all I need is wifi and my laptop. Im also a college student looking to make some extra cash to pay off tuition. Both of these things I can do online anytime which leaves me for plenty downtime and study breaks I can spend with my furry friends! I care for every pet based on their individual needs and routine. I make sure they’re fed on time, get plenty of attention and exercise, and have a safe and comfortable environment. In a client’s home, I’ll follow their instructions closely and keep their pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. My main goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away.

“Holly was an amazing sitter! We were initially a little nervous because our dogs have very distinct personalities and needs—especially our two senior pups—but Holly made us feel completely at ease from the start. She sent consistent updates with a full set of pictures at every visit that we grew to look forward to while we were away, which reassured us that everyone was doing great. The dogs were clearly getting plenty of time to eat, play, and just be themselves, and they warmed up to her right away—which doesn’t always happen! Holly was friendly, easy to work with, and followed all of our care instructions to a T. She also left the house exactly how we left it, which we really appreciated. We’ll absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and compassionate sitter!”

“Elizabeth was very quick to respond and super nice. I would definitely use her again”

About: From a young age I loved being around animals, I started out helping my mom since she is a wildlife rehabilitation rescuer. I worked as a Veterinary Technician with small and large animal, and have been working as a receptionist in Veterinary Clinics for 7 years now. Animals bring a happiness to me that is indescribable and if you hire me as your pet sitter I promise that your fur babies will become a part of my family! I will treat them as my own, if you’d like to book please let me know. I like to do meet and greets before I do the job to meet your fur babies, you, and make sure that I have an understanding of the routine to best take care of them while your away! I am currently not working so I am doing pet sitting full time, I can pretty much do any date or time. Just let me know what works best for you. For pet sitting, I would do so in the comfort of your own home and where your pet feels the safest. I do not have a fenced in yard, so to make sure that the pet care is safe I feel it is best to provide it in your home.

About: Need someone who is truly obsessed with animals? Look no further, you've found your person! Growing up, and even to this day, animals have always been a part of the family. My love for animals has grown immensely over the years and I have fulfilled my dream of graduating with a bachelors in Animal Science. I have grown up with many dogs all my life, and spent a lot of time watching neighbors dogs as well as close friends and families. I have been in the pet industry since 2014 and continue to grow as a pet care provider. Whatever you need and want done for your baby, I can provide! I am a full time middle school teacher with a passion for animal care on top of my love for witnessing student growth! During the school day, I’m limited on any type of services from 8-4pm —however before and after those times I am available. I have my own herd of animals that I also care for daily and would love to add your bunch to the mix. Your pets and home will be treated exactly as I would my own. My goal is to make your pets as comfortable as possible with their regular feeding schedule, either walking or playing outside, and of course lots of love and attention.

“Jasmin has watched our dogs before and she always does such a great job. One of our dogs is on a raw diet with probiotics galore and she does great with all the instructions. Such a lifesaver to have her stay in our house as our senior dog has never stayed anywhere else. We are blessed to have found her as our go-to gal! She gets our mail and keeps our plants alive which is just an added bonus! Thank you!”

About: I've been dog-sitting family pets for years and have really enjoyed sitting cats and dogs on Trusted Housesitters. I love spending evenings in with furballs. I work remotely so I'm home all day. It's the ideal setup if you have pets that are used to having a human around throughout the day! Please get in touch to meet in person before booking! I like to visit with pets before doing sits to make sure they're comfortable with me before a stay. I am a fully remote worker, so when pets come stay with me, they won't have to be alone unless I need to run to the grocery store. I get up around 8 but can be up earlier if pets need to go out. My lunch break is flexible but usually around 12, and then I'm out of work around 6. I have no other pets while I'm sitting. There are no sidewalks in my area, so I can't take dogs on walks. I do have a fenced in backyard with enough space to play fetch--that'd be ideal for exercise!

“Kyla is truly the best! She has been watching my dog since she was 3 and I never have to worry about how she’s doing when I’m gone. Kyla really goes out of her way to make her feel comfortable and happy while i am gone. 10/10 high recommend!”

“Wendy took great care of Layla and my home. She was communicative and I came home to a happy dog.”

About: Hello! I’m a long time pet lover and house sitter (of my own place) I have interacted with many pets of my friends and worked at animal shelters. My experience with pets starts in high school when I volunteered at the local animal shelter cleaning out kennels, grooming and playing with cats and dogs. I then graduated to being a pet auntie for my friends animals and then pet sitting for various clients. I love pets, they are adorable and I can’t wait until I can have my own! Until then, I guess I’ll just pet sit…. I work from home on most days, so my schedule is flexible enough to allow me to look after pets such as spending quality time, potty breaks, exercising via walks and playing with cat toys. When I care for pets in their home, I take care to read all of the instructions and look after the home. This can include administering medications, accommodating different diets and walking styles (such as the slow walkers, the sniffers, the neighborhood watchers). I make sure to leave the home the way I found it because that is what I would like if I was the pet parent.

About: I absolutely love animals! I'm patient, caring, and understanding, and I believe every pet deserves compassion and kindness. I have a special place in my heart for rescue pets because every animal has their own unique story. Being attentive, patient, and making your pet feel safe and loved is always my priority. I'm here to help make life easier for both you and your furry family member. 🤍 I work at my family’s business that’s from home and I do pick up sides jobs very often to earn some more cash on the side . My dad has always like brining in different animals since I was child I do well with caring for all kinds of pets including birds , reptiles , big dogs , small hyper puppy’s Cats! . To ensure your furry one safety I would like to go down what your most comfortable me doing in certain difficult situations or any other situations your most convened about I will never do anything that I wouldn’t do to my own pets or wouldn’t like others to do so communicate is key 🔑

About: Pets have always been family to me. I had a Shih Tzu who was my best friend for 14 years and a Pit Bull I loved for 12 years, both of whom I miss dearly. Now I have a 6 month old Maltese-Yorkie mix who is my absolute pride and joy 🤎 So I truly understand how much trust it takes to leave your baby in someone else’s care. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and breeds, from little lap dogs to the big babies who think they’re lap dogs 😂 I’m also happy to care for cats! I’m currently a full-time nursing student and not working outside of school, which gives me the flexibility to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and supervision. My goal is simple: for you to enjoy your time away knowing your baby is safe, loved, and being cared for like one of my own. You can expect plenty of pictures and updates along the way, because I know how much peace of mind that brings 🐾 I’m currently a full-time nursing student, which gives me a pretty flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for boarding, walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of attention. I’m also flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and will do my best to accommodate your schedule. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I have a clean, spacious home with plenty of room for your pet to relax and feel comfortable. I follow each owner’s feeding, walking, medication, crate, and bedtime instructions closely because I know every pet has their own routine. I’m also happy to provide pictures and updates throughout their stay so you never have to wonder how your fur baby is doing.

“Kassirer did a great job, our dog loves her! Dependable and does a great job staying in touch and following up!”
