House Sitting Tancred

“When you leave your pets with Hayley you can rest assured that they are receiving the same level of love and care that they are used to. Hayley is passionate about animals. She understands their unique needs and bonds with them in their own time. We have a young boxer who had a very difficult life before we adopted him. He has behavioral scars that my never heal and he's very nervous around strangers. On day 2 we got a message from Hayley that he was in full on snuggle mode...a miracle! Don't hesitate to leave your fur babies with Hayley. She's compassionate and a true animal lover - the real deal!”

“I was gone for two weeks and came home to healthy and happy pets! Susana is very responsive and kept me up to date with frequent pictures and videos. Would definitely book again.”

About: Some people innately connect with animals. Maybe this cannot be taught or learned. Even those animals who "don't like anyone" like me. It's a gift. Perhaps they can tell I'm a gentle giant and it makes them feel safe and protected. Whether cat or dog or some other creatures, I will lavish affection and attention on them (if they're into that). Or simply let them call the shots until they're ready to warm up a bit more. As a large, fit dude, I can manage even the strongest dogs, but I'm nimble and delicate with the smaller ones and cats. It comes naturally, and your pets will sense it. Summertime affords more flexibility for me as a teacher. I do have another PT gig currently on Tuesdays & Thursdays in the afternoons. But I'm mostly available the other 5 days for now, and am willing to spend time with your pets before and after shifts on days I work. For many years, I've cared for dozens of friends' pets. Long before Rover existed, I was a resident car provider in my community. Everyone knows I am reliable, professional, responsive, and flexible. Clean, sober, non-smoker.

About: I am a regular volunteer at the YOLO animal shelter and Happy Tails Cat Sanctuary. At home I take care of all of my exotic pets, I own a parakeet, cockatiel, bearded dragon, rat, and two fish tanks. I love my at home zoo and taking care of everybody, I'd love to share that joy with YOU! I currently work part-time with a flexible schedule to accommodate all YOUR pet's needs! Weekdays are very flexible where-as weekends need a couple days notice. I follow directions diligently and confidently. With all of my pet experiences your pet is sure to feel comfortable, safe and happy in my care.

About: Hey there! I’m a lifelong animal lover, rescue founder, and experienced pet sitter. I’ve worked in animal shelters, vet clinics, and now run my own animal rescue, Rowdy Sisters Rescue Co. — so caring for animals is literally my full-time life! We have a fenced yard, a dog-friendly home, and separate rooms for dogs who need their own space. Whether your pup loves cuddles, a structured routine, or just a quiet place to relax, they’ll feel right at home here. I’m experienced with seniors, puppies, meds, shy dogs, and high-energy breeds. Your dog will be treated like family — with plenty of love, playtime, and updates while you’re away. I’m home full-time and run my own nonprofit animal rescue, so caring for animals is built into my daily routine. From feeding and exercise to playtime, training, and medication — I’m hands-on with dogs all day, every day. I also have a fenced yard, separate spaces for breaks or quiet time, and a structured but loving routine that keeps everyone happy and safe. Whether it’s my own pack or Rover pups, I treat every dog like family. I treat your home and pets with total respect and care. I stick to your routine, provide lots of updates, and make sure your dog feels safe and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s drop-ins or house sitting, I give each pet the same love and structure I give my own.

“Jennifer & her daughter did a great job taking care of Luna and even took her to the river to cool off and play in some water! Her daughter was very professional and sent multiple pictures and updates! Thank you!”

“Colette took fantastic care of our dog! We came home to a happy dog and a spotless house. She sent us pictures of our boy when we were away and he looked very content. We will be booking with Colette again very soon!”

About: I absolutely love animals. I'd be doing this for free if I didn't have rent to pay! I have been dog sitting for friends and family forever and used to work with tiny kids at a school so I have lots of experience and energy to keep up! I am self-employed so I make my own schedule! I will always put your pet first when it comes to scheduling. I am a morning person so I'm up as early as 6am and as late at 11pm. I used to work with tiny little babies at an elementary school and I'd take care of your pet with the same amount of love and precaution!

“She was absolutely amazing!!! She was so patient with Bruiser, understood what he needed and kept in contact at all times. Would definitely book again”

About: There's something about caring for dogs and cats that brings my heart alive. There's nothing I'd rather do than care lovingly attentively for these animals. I am a retired English teacher, and my time is unlimited. I prefer long term, overnight sitting in your home. I am fit and love walking and playing with your loved one. I treat them as if they were my own. Having been raised caring for my families dogs, cats, horses, cows, ducks, fish, and even peacocks, I am most comfortable with animals. I follow instructions, administer medicine when necessary, and leave your home in perfect condition as you left it. Some folks say I'm too old to do this...I know I'm not. I can walk 2 miles easily with dogs. I have described my affection for dogs and cats which I hope reflects the care I will provide, and I would be so pleased to serve you.

About: I have 8 years of experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, potty breaks, and giving pets plenty of love and attention. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I always follow the owner’s instructions closely and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures so you can see what your fur baby is up to! I’m a full-time college student with a flexible schedule, giving me plenty of time throughout the week to care for your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and boarding in my apartment. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m stopping by your home, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, love, and care. I keep my Rover calendar updated with my current availability! I share my home with my best friend, who also has experience boarding and caring for dogs, and our Great Dane. We’re both comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and needs. I personally have experience handling reactive and dog aggressive dogs and understand the importance of boundaries, supervision, and safe separation. Because other dogs may be in our care, I always want to know about reactivity or behavioral concerns beforehand so we can provide a safe and comfortable environment for every pet.

About: My husband and I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets. We have four dogs of our own, so feeding schedules, walks, playtime, cleaning, and maintaining a calm and safe routine are part of our everyday life. We also have experience house sitting through TrustedHousesitters and have received several five-star reviews. We are responsible, clean, attentive, and comfortable caring for multiple pets at once, including senior animals and pets with different routines or feeding needs. We understand how important it is to follow instructions carefully, keep pets comfortable in their familiar home, send regular updates, and treat every home with respect. My husband and I have a flexible schedule, which allows us to spend plenty of quality time with the pets in our care. We work remotely and travel throughout California, so we're often available for house sitting, overnight stays, walks, and drop-in visits. We always make sure pets stick to their normal routines and receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. We understand that every pet has its own personality and routine, so we carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and home care. Safety is always our top priority—we double-check doors and gates, use leashes when required, and never leave pets unattended longer than agreed. We treat every home with the same care and respect as our own, keep it clean and secure, and provide regular photo and video updates so owners can relax while they're away.

“Sierra did a wonderful job watching our puppers. She provided regular updates and photos for total peace of mind. Would absolutely hire again. Thanks Sierra!”

About: My pet care experience began when I started living with my uncle as a teenager. Back in the Philippines, he would rescue puppies and keep them in the house until he could find them a foster home. After school, I would go straight home and take care of the rescues. I would feed them and keep them hydrated, and then take them out for a walk. I also taught them tricks until they could master it without treats. I strongly believed that training is an essential part of their growth. When I moved here, I adopted Astrid as a puppy and she has been with me for 3 years now. My main skills with pets includes strict attention to time management, understanding their behaviors, and attending to their needs. Other skills include having patience, clear communication with owners, being on time, and being responsible with the duties given. I currently work part-time as a cook in a nursing home. On my days off, I usually stay at home either on my computer or take my dog to play outside. I have a lot of leisure time on these days, and I believe that pet sitting will fulfill these times and keep me busy. In my home, I ensure that my dog sleeps and naps comfortably when tired. I make sure that there’s food for her and water always refilled. I keep my dog active by walking around the neighborhood and going to the playground. I also play the guitar and sing songs to her when there is nothing else to do. When she wants to go outside, I let her run free in the backyard surrounded with fences and have a shaded area for her when it gets too hot. I would also leave the door open in case she wants a colder environment which is inside the house. In a client’s home, I would ensure that their pets are well fed and hydrated. If there is an accident, I would willingly be responsible for that and take care of it. I would make sure that their pets are also being engaged in activities so that they would feel less bored when the parents aren’t home.
