House Sitting in Townsend

About: I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life. While this is my first time pet sitting professionally, I’m very comfortable with animals and take their care seriously. I have experience trimming cat claws, and I’m confident handling both playful and shy pets with patience and care. You can trust me to treat your furry family members like my own! I work remotely from home M - T & Th - Friday. I’m free on the weekends. I am happy to stop by to check in with your pets, feed, walk, and give medications. I am also able to stay your house as well. I treat every pet and home with the same respect and care I’d want for my own. I follow instructions closely, keep the space clean and secure, and make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I also like to meet with pet owners beforehand to learn about their pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so I can provide the best possible care.

“Jorden is a pleasure to work with and took excellent care of my girl while I was on vacation. I am extremely pleased with her work and will be continuing to use her for future dog sitting.”

“I was very nervous about leaving my dog with someone other than family. I found Rover while looking for a place to board her. I was able to find and interview potential sitters. Callie stood out to me as when she come over for the interview she had treats with her and my dog fell in love with her instantly! Although it was difficult for me to leave my dog I felt the love Callie had for dogs and it put my mind at ease. She took many pictures of my baby to show she was fine. She took her for a nice long walk which I know Coco loved. I couldn’t be happier!”

“Emily was fantastic and exactly what I needed after my existing plans fell through. She stepped up with little notice and did a great job of taking care of Daisy for me. Thank you again!”

“Wren is phenomenal. He went above and beyond providing care for our dog while we were gone on a family vacation. My dog is visibly sad that Wren is no longer hanging out with him since our return. Wren comes with our highest recommendations- if you are looking for a dependable, experienced and kind hearted care giver for your pet, he is your guy.”

Kimberly M.

“All three of our pets were well taken care of and our house looks exactly the same as when we left. We got pictures daily so I wasn’t worried about them at all!”

About: Growing up in a pet-loving household, I’ve had extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats. Over the years, I’ve cared for five dogs and five cats, taking on a wide range of responsibilities to ensure their health and well-being. For my dogs, I managed their daily routines, including feeding, walking, and bathing. I also played an active role in administering medication, including insulin injections, ensuring they followed prescribed regimens for their health. I’ve had hands-on experience with basic dog training, helping to establish good behavior and fostering positive relationships with my pets. In addition to my work with dogs, I’ve assisted with the care of our family’s cats, taking on feeding duties and helping with basic grooming. I’ve also been responsible for ensuring their living areas were clean and comfortable, as well as offering companionship and playtime. Throughout my experience, I’ve developed a strong understanding of animal behavior and needs, as well as the importance of patience, consistency, and affection in caring for pets I understand that pet care needs vary, which is why I offer flexible options to suit different schedules. On weekdays, I’m available after work to take your dog for walks, ensuring they get the exercise and attention they need. On weekends I have a more open walking/visit availability. For weekend getaways, I also offer boarding services, so your dog can stay in a comfortable environment while you’re away. If you need boarding during the week, I’m happy to accommodate house-trained dogs, understanding that I work a regular 9-to-5 schedule. Your dog will have plenty of space to relax, with plenty of walks and playtime in the mornings and once I am out of work. I’ll ensure they’re well-cared for and have a positive, enjoyable experience while you're away. I understand that entrusting your dog to someone else requires a great deal of trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. My home offers a safe, comfortable environment where your dog will feel secure and cared for. With a fully fenced-in yard, they’ll have plenty of room to play and explore without worrying about escaping or running off. Additionally, a covered porch provides a shaded and cozy spot for them to relax, no matter the weather. I’m committed to providing personalized care, ensuring your dog feels at ease in a familiar, homely atmosphere. Your pet’s safety, well-being, and happiness are my top priority, and I will make sure they have the best experience during their stay.

“Colin is wonderful. He treated my pup like the princess she is, sent photos and updates, and is exactly the kind of human that I trust with my fur baby.”

“Caroline is an amazing dog sitter! She shows up on time and keeps in touch while we are away. It is obvious my dogs love her which makes us very comfortable leaving them in her care. We will absolutely consider her our dog sitter from now on!”

About: I have been taking care of pets for friends and family for the last 5 years and it’s always been a welcome opportunity as I was never allowed to have pets growing up. I love nature so long dog walks are never boring. I also have experience petsitting so I’ll make sure your pet is never lonely. I am able to stay with your pet all day and on weekends as well. The longest I would be out is 4 hours, but that would be very intermittent. I’m respectful of clients’ homes and I want the pet to be as comfortable as possible. If the pet makes a mess I will be sure to clean it as soon as possible and the return the place to how it looked before if not cleaner.

“This was my first time booking with Rover. And I was blessed to find Julie! She met me as we arranged before our weekend away! She is a delightful lady and she took such good care of my Winnie. I can’t wait to book with her again. I highly recommend her.”

Susan W.

“Amanda was great with both my pets. She was reliable and was very responsive with all my queries. She really bonded well with my pets. I will definitely hire her again for my vacations.”

Sangam B.

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my pets received while I was away over Christmas! Nevaeh went above and beyond to make sure both my dog and cat were well taken care of. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. I came home to happy, healthy pets and a clean home, which is always a huge relief. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter. Thank you so much!”

Ryan G.

“Sam went above and beyond for us! She was a fantastic communicator being sure to ask questions and send much appreciated updates. She even noticed our pups ear infection and sent samples to her vet to get addressed before we got home. We could not recommend Sam’s services enough!!”

Emily S.

“Mark was amazing with our pets. They instantly took to him. He kept them safe and happy while we were away. He also left our home as if nobody had stayed here. Highly recommend Mark! He is outstanding.”

About: Hello! My name is Katherine and my experience with animals has ranged from volunteering to in home sitting. I am so excited to offer my services and meet your furry friends. Not only do I love meeting new breeds, but I care about their health and wellbeing. My weekly visits to my local animal shelter gives me a chance to showcase my passion for helping dogs who lost their homes. My volunteer experience includes walking, feeding, and caring for various breeds of all sizes! These visits have made me familiar with a dog’s body language that may signal how they are feeling. We meet many new dogs each week that are new to this environment and may be very nervous and timid. This also has given me a chance to learn how I can gain a dog’s trust with friendly mannerisms. I can’t wait to get started on Rover and meet your furry little friends! I have recently graduated with a bachelors degree from college and am looking for opportunities to spend time with animals. Currently, I have a part-time job and have lots of time to care for and visit any animals needing company throughout the week. My dog at home gets daily walks and has a runner in my backyard for when she needs to go outside. I often give her treats when she is being a good girl and notice if she needs to use the bathroom outside. At my local shelter, I am able to feed large and small dogs and leash dogs who are unfamiliar with me. I tend to make sure my posture and manners are friendly with all the pups! I also make sure to notice when a dog needs praising and do not ignore their good behavior!
