Pet Sitting Traer

About: I have two dogs right now. One is a yellow lab and the other is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. The Spaniel is 3 and the lab is 2. So there is a lot of energy in the house. I have experience with walking them both while on camping trips, giving them baths, playing fetch and of course laying on the couch and cuddling. I also used to have an older Cavalier King Charles Spaniel so I have experience with all ages of dogs. I love to interact and give dogs all of my attention! I have currently just finished my first year of college at Buena Vista University. I am looking to make a little more money for this summer, and this job is something I know I would enjoy. I am not sure how my summer will plan out exactly yet, but I would love to make time and will be flexible! I live in the country with a 3 acre yard. There is plenty of room to run around and play fetch if needed. I also have two dogs on my own that are very friendly and playful, but can also be calmed if needed. I will respect your needs and wants as the dogs owner.

“Jordan was great, came on short notice to take care of my cat!”

“Tee-Tee overall is an exceptional at her job. She took good care of our dogs while we were away. We trust her coming into our home for the first time and she did not disappoint. Tee-Tee was not on the scheduled time that we both agreed upon. However she did communicate with me each time she was late to perform her duties. Overall I will definitely use her again because we are pleased with her service. :-)”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals for my entire life. As a kid, my family bred and raised Shih Tzus. I have experience with all ages! I am currently working part time/as needed while attending college part time. I have a flexible schedule and commute from Charles City to Waterloo most every day. I have a private, fenced in backyard. My wiener dog, Tootsie, enjoys roaming our 3-bedroom house, sunbathing on the couches, and snuggling in bed.

“We LOVE Wendy! Kida is always excited for her to come over and Wendy does a great job running out all of Kida’s energy while she’s at our house! She sends me pictures and is great with communication. Definitely recommend!!”

About: Growing up I have always had cats and dogs around in my life. I have always bonded with cats and have lots of experience taking care of newborn kittens. I have found homes for 30 cats and kittens and would love to continue helping cats, dogs and owners out with pet care as needed! I love meeting new pets and owners and I’m exited to have you book with me! I currently work at Texas Roadhouse and am starting collage! Being injured I had to rethink how I was going to work and make money and rover works out very will for me! It’s an amazing opportunity to help pet owners in need as well as connect with pets! I love exercising and walking and always make the pets included if they want to be, even my 15 pound cat in his backpack! I currently live in an apartment building and go for walks frequently. I do own a cat backpack that is breathable for the cats to take them on walks as well as a cat and dog leash and harness for small dogs! I also have lots cat toys and a few dog toys that are just waiting to be used by someone other than my cats (whom are great with other animals).

“Sage was a wonderful sitter! She was attentive to our pets and took care of playing, feeding and their litter boxes and other accidents. She went above and beyond by bringing in our mail, moving objects out of kitty reach and bonding with our animals by holding them and playing with them. She kept us updated daily with detailed notes and pictures. We would definitely have her watch our kitties again and would highly recommend to others! Thank you so much!”

About: Currently dog sit for a friend when their family goes out of town that has lead my son and I into enjoying taking care of dogs. We enjoy their company, snuggles and companionship. Currently working part time hours so I am home often along with being home every night and on weekends which allows your fur baby to not be alone for long periods of time. Have a front yard easily accessible to use with a lead and a big fenced in back yard for running around, playing fetch or relaxing in the sun.

About: What sets me apart is my experience with a wide range of animals—not just dogs and cats, but also reptiles and small pets. I’ve spent years fostering, pet sitting, and walking dogs of all breeds and temperaments, which has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior and individual needs. Whether it’s helping a shy rescue feel safe, caring for an energetic puppy, or tending to the unique needs of a senior pet, I’m patient, observant, and dedicated to making sure every animal feels comfortable and cared for. I treat each pet like my own—with plenty of attention, structure, and love. I currently care for animals full time, I run my own small rescue, and it gives me full flexibility to care for your animals like they are my own! Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or taking them out for walks, my main priority is keeping them comfortable, safe, and happy. I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine—feeding schedules, favorite toys, and walking routes—so they feel secure while you’re away. During visits, I always make time for play, cuddles, and attention, as well as fresh water and clean-up. On walks, I make sure your pet gets the right balance of exercise and fun, always keeping their safety and comfort in mind.

About: I've had furbabies of all types since I was a child, worked as a veterinary tech for several years and foster cats and small pets. I currently work part time remotely from home and can take my work with me anywhere I go! I love kitty cuddles and no pup is too big to sit on my lap. My furbabies are family and are treated with respect, care and love. I treat all animals the same way, as if they were my own!

About: I've lived with and taken care of pets my entire life, though my favorite has always and will always be cats! I've raised kittens, done work at animal shelters, taken care of puppies and also nursed sick animals back to health as well. Please take a closer look at my cat experience! I'm only working part-time at the moment, so I'm free the majority of days! I can stop in however many times needed and even do overnight stays if necessary. I have 3 cats who are very loving and caring towards me, though they would not fare well with other cats which is why I cannot do home boarding. I can happily do any other type of pet care and can show my records of experience!

“Great job. Thank you”

“Angie was great with new little puppy! She kept me updated and Nala was worn out when we got home! She was accommodating and welcomed Nala right into her home!”

About: I grew up caring for my family’s three dogs and I loved every minute of it! I am able to care for any age and have experiences with those who need a little extra TLC (seniors, epilepsy, etc). I currently attend graduate school Monday through Thursday 8-3:30 and I am available most other days/times! I am able to do overnight care as well. I will care for your pet based on its needs! I will do everything that I can to ensure your pets safety and happiness (leashes, crates, etc).

About: Ever since I was a kid, I’ve always been surrounded by animals. Friends and family counted on me to take care of their pets, and I’ve always taken that trust to heart. ❤️🐾 Being a full-time stay-at-home mom allows me to have a flexible and open schedule. While I may have occasional family obligations, I’m committed to working with you to create the best schedule for your pet’s needs. ❤️🐾 Our home is located in a friendly neighborhood with a safe and welcoming environment. We are a kind, pet-loving family, and we have one friendly dog who enjoys playing with other dogs—creating a comfortable space for your pets. 🐾❤️

About: We have had dogs, cats, & bearded dragons for 25 yrs! Neighbors, friends, and family members have trusted us to take care of theirs too! I have a flexible work schedule and I'm free most weekends. So, I would be able to take care of your beloved pets almost anytime! I have a fenced in yard. I have 2 labs and they would love more playdates if you needed boarding. We can keep them seperate if needed too.

About: Housesitting and petsitting full-time for the past four years (mainly via the large international platform), I'm a quiet, independent, conscientious, non-smoking, freelance writer and virtual assistant. Experienced with cats, dogs, house rabbits, chickens, ducks, and sheep, as well as upkeeping my own country and city homes through the years. Please inquire to see my 20+ five-star reviews on the THS housesitting site. I have experience caring for pets young and old; administering a variety of medications (oral, inhaler, etc.), caring for anxious, shy, feral, and pets with all manner of personalities. I love meeting animals where they are, and every pet deserves to remain comfortable at home. With a very flexible schedule, I can adapt to a variety of arrangements and needs. I’m quite the homebody, whether at my own home or housesitting :) As a former country cottage-renter, and living on my own for the past 13 years, I'm used to caring for a house. I've also lived for years in a city apartment, and managed all aspects of that kind of life. I am relatively handy, especially with older/quirky houses, yet know when to call in the professionals. I've also worked as an Airbnb turnover cleaner/caretaker, which involved maintaining a large summer garden. A homebody at heart, I'm able to spend most of my time on your property, and to accommodate special situations. I love to explore for a bit, then return to the sanctuary of home. Growing up, I volunteered at the Animal Rescue League across the street and had various pets of my own. When I was 8, we moved to a more rural location and I was finally able to get a kitten, who became my best friend. At the age of 12, I used my own savings to adopt a dachshund mix who'd caught my heart. I take all the animal time I can get - pets have always been my people, so to speak. I love animals, but can't currently make the long-term commitment to a pet. I also adore travel, and working online allows me some freedom of location. I appreciate settling in to visit a place for weeks or months, and getting to know new animal friends in that time.
