“Wanny was absolutely wonderful with Matcha! She sent us frequent updates, along with so many beautiful photos and videos (honestly better than the ones we take ourselves!) It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Matcha is still a young puppy, and she was incredibly patient and understanding with him. She kept a close eye on his playtime, made sure he was comfortable, and clearly put a lot of care and attention into his routine. When we picked Matcha up, he looked happy, healthy, and well cared for. We truly appreciate everything Wanny did for him and would absolutely book with her again in the future. Highly recommend! 🐶✨”
“Stella had a great time with Ginny and Andrew! Long walks in the park and lots of attention. What more could a dog want! I will definitely have them watch Stella again.”
“Jason was very easy to communicate and work with. He was flexible with drop off and pick-up time, responsive over text/messaging, and he sent great pictures that made us feel at ease. Highly recommend Jason for boarding!”
“Monna is The Best! She took such good care of our little shih tzu —walking her, feeding her and most of all loving her.! Our doggie was missing Monna when we brought her home!!”
“My husband and I would like to express our appreciation to The Rover program. Without this great service we would have never met Bill and Debbie! They are now our official dogs sitters and the our pups- 2nd home! We are so Thankful! 🙏 Leaving our 2 dogs for 2 weeks was much easier than we expected. We give thanks to this wonderful couple, neighbors and new friends. They did provided a truly great atmosphere and daily loving care. Sharing videos, pictures and daily messages went a long way for us. Knowing that are dogs were eating well says it ALL. 👍 They were happy and content because they walked them several times per day! Plus, Following our instructions on their care is so note worthy. They allowed us to enjoy our trip with a real sense of peace. They met all our expectations by providing excellent and caring hands for our pups. We would definitely recommend this special couple to care for your fur babies! Blessings to all! Truly, The Johnson’s”
“Gina was amazing with our puppy Lola. She sent us pictures and updates every day. She went above and beyond what we asked her to do I would highly recommend her and will definitely be using Gina again.”
“Absolutely AH-MAZING!! Cara, her family and her pup Lucky took such great care of my little 7 month bestie, Rocco, even when Rocco wanted to play way after Lucky was tired! Cara was communicative, and totally on top of everything this little frenchie needed! We can’t wait (Rocco and me) until our next booking with Cara. Would recommend 1000%…. As long as we can still get on her schedule!! 😂”
“We are so grateful for Darlene and David. They just love Baxter so much, and it really shows. When he comes home, he is happy and relaxed. In fact, when we are dropping him off, we open the car door and he just bursts out and runs right up the their door! I have to get his attention to say goodbye :). He absolutely loves it there, and we will continue having Darlene and David take care of Baxter while we are away, as long as they are available!!!”
“Melinda & her family are the best! Our anxious boy had the best time and we never had to worry about him while we were away. We’ve had not great experiences with Rover sitters in the past but we will 1000% be using Melinda again. She will love and spoil your pup like they are her own and she was great at sending pictures and videos!”
“Sierra and Jason were amazing with my pup! They were so friendly and kind and kept me updated everyday for the whole week they had her. I received plenty of pictures and updates. They catered to my pup’s needs and she came back happy, healthy, and wore out from all the playing! Will definitely book with this great couple again!”
“I’m so happy I found June and Junyeong! They were absolutely wonderful—sending us updates and pictures twice a day, which gave us such peace of mind. It’s clear they truly care, and our sweet girl was in great hands. We couldn’t have asked for better care and highly recommend them!”
“We felt very comfortable having Caroline take care of Dolly while we were away, She kept us updated on how things were going and sent some cute pictures along the way. We would recommend her and would use her for future pet sitting.”
“Richard watched our dog Mister for 9 days. We received daily pics and updates which was great. He was VERY accommodating with pick up and drop off times. Would definitely recommend and use again!”
“Our doggos loved their stay with Megha and Pranav! Their dog Mimi is adorable and played our high energy cattle dog all day, while our greyhound lab mix chilled out. Megha responds promptly to messages, updated us with pictures and videos, and was super accommodating. Our dogs will love going back, thank you Megha!!!!!!”
About: Hi! I’m Kaitlin, a lifelong dog lover and the proud owner of a friendly Border Collie named Koko. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your dog, so I treat every pet in my care like family. My home is calm, clean, and fully fenced, and because I spend most of my time at home, dogs are rarely left alone for long periods. Whether your dog loves playing, exploring the yard, going for walks, or simply relaxing on the couch, I do my best to help them feel comfortable and at home. I care for a limited number of dogs at a time so that each pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and individualized care. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality, routine, and preferences so I can help them feel comfortable, safe, and at home during their stay. I know being away from your dog can be difficult, so I provide regular photo updates and messages throughout their stay to help you stay connected and give you peace of mind. My Border Collie, Koko, is friendly, well-socialized, and enjoys having canine guests.
“My previous sitter canceled my booking last minute but Randy helped me out. Thank you so much!!!! He gave us updates on how Milo is doing. I highly recommend Randy and his family.”
“Shushma was great! She kept us up-to-date on daily activities and how our dog was doing. I really appreciated all the photos and videos. It was nice to see that our dog was having fun with the other pups. I felt like Lucy was being well taken care of, which helped me to relax and have more fun on our trip. I would highly recommend Shushma, and we plan to use her services again.”

“Jen was the best!! She provided outstanding care for our cat. She kept all appointments on time. Kept us informed how our cat was doing, sent lots of pictures and text updates. She spent extra time playing with our cat. When we got home, we were met by a very happy kitty!!! She is usually mad at us for a few hours, but not this time!! Returning after 7 days, it was like we never left!!! I would recommend Jen anytime!!! All ready have her booked for our next trip!”
About: My pups and I are happy, healthy, fit, and fun - we walk, run, or hike daily, and would love to take others out with us too. At the moment I am working 4/7 days so can only offer weekend boarding, or friendly pups for long term boarding with the understanding that on work days the dogs have the house and the yard and each other for company, but no direct supervision during work hours. My days off (fri-sun) are all about the animals! Your pups will be treated as if they were my own. They will have company, comfort, and as much or as little exercise as required.
“Leilani helped me out caring for Kane last minute after my sitter pulled out when I was out of the country. I appreciate her so much for taking the time very last minute.”
“Elizabeth was amazing! She pays great attention to detail and was very reliable! She administered my cats insulin with no problems so I’ll definitely be using her again when need be!”
About: I’ve owned cats my whole life and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for them. I understand that every cat has their own personality, and I take the time to earn their trust. Whether it’s feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, or cuddles, I make sure your cat feels happy and comfortable while you’re gone.
About: I am retired and enjoy living and playing in Big Bear. I dont have my own pets so let me take care of yours! I have owned pets for many years and I am that guy who says hi to every pet in town :) They are one of mankind's favorite creatures and I do my part to make them happy and safe. I am currently retired and have flexible hours and enjoy being outdoors. I am available for overnight stays in my home or day care. I can accomodate regular scheduling or work with people that travel or take vacations. I have a large home in Big Bear. There is a fenced yard with plenty of shade and privacy. I think your pet will find it to be a vacation all to themselves!
About: Hi my name is Ayla! I have had many pets growing up and I still do have pets. I have fed, walked, and bathed my dogs as well as administering occasional medication in pill form. I currently have an 11 month plot hound puppy and I am in the process of training him. I feed, water, walk, and bathe him as well. I am also diligent in cleaning up after myself and after pets. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time of time to care and play with your pups! I am available Tuesday-Friday every week. I am familiar with crate training and I handle issues with tenderness and care. I understand when to back up and provide space if a dog feels threatened or upset. All in all, I am very loving and caring to all animals.
About: I stared dog sitting my freshman year of highschool for my neighbor, but eventually I enjoyed it so much that my friends would ask me to take care of their pets while they were out of town; from dogs, cats, and even hamsters. I always enjoy being around animals and I always find a way to build a good bond with them. I am a student at U of A, all my classes are usually in the morning so I’m free most afternoons. I am free on the weekends and can do any overnight pet sitting on Fridays and Saturdays. So if you’re going out for the weekend feel free to reach out! If the house has a backyard I will let them out every hour to ensure they are using the bathroom, if the house does not have a backyard I will take the dog out for a short walk every 2-3 hours. Of course i’ll take the dogs for a long walk everyday whether the house has a backyard or not. I will follow any schedules such as feeding schedules that the owners give me.
About: I’ve cared for cats since I was 14. Family and friends have trusted and relied on me to feed, play, and check in on their fur baby while they were away. I am qualified to provide senior animal care and socialization for skittish and shy pets.
“Victoria was honestly amazing! Super easy to communicate with & very responsive and made the whole thing completely stress free. She sent the cutest photos every morning and night, which I loved so much and it made being away so much easier!! I could tell my cat was really well taken care of and got lots of attention & love and many pets! 🥰😻 Came home to a happy, happy cat and a very clean house! She washed the bed sheets and everything was clean! Would absolutely have her back!!! Thank you so much! 😊”
“I felt so lucky to have Teri take care of my cat Rex while I was on vacation. She checked on him and played with him twice a day for a whole week and I am so thankful she cared so much about my precious little cat! He is such an energetic cat and she took great care of him. I would not hesitate to book Teri again.”
“Sage did an excellent job with our 2 senior chihuahuas! I was a little leery about how they would behave with having a stranger come into our home, but they loved her and were happy to see her when she stopped by. She was attentive to their needs and provided feedback when she noticed something amiss. Thank you again, Sage, for taking care of our babies!”
About: Ever since I was young, I’ve taken care of my family’s chickens, snakes, and dogs. My neighbors also had dogs, horses, and many other animals that I’ve petsit. I loved dogs so much that I walked my neighbors dogs for free since it would be good exercise for me and for the dogs themselves. Whether cuddling or playing and even doing the dirty work like cleaning up poop or throw up, I will love your dogs like I love my own. If you’re booking me for house sitting, I will walk your dog free of charge. :) I have dog walking in the morning and tend to go to the gym at night for a few hours or a date night once in awhile, I won’t be away from your pet for more than 4-6 hours according to your wishes! To make sure our furry friends are safe, healthy, and happy I would love to have a meet n greet with the owner and their pet to go over their feedings and routine before a booking. Just like I did with my dog, I’ll give your dog my constant care and attention, giving them ample affection. For dogs I’ve taken care of at my neighbors house or my clients house, I respect whether or not they’re allowed on the couches or the bed. If they want to play I could spend hours playing with them, of course stopping when I see them becoming tired or overheated. I would also like to call myself a part time maid since I like to leave the house cleaner than I found it. I love going on walks or runs with dogs to release their energy and I’m careful to avoid other dogs if they tend to be reactive.
About: I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, but what really sets me apart is how present and attentive I am. I take the time to understand what makes your pet feel safe and comfortable, and I adjust my approach to fit their personality. I’m patient, observant, and reliable—and I treat every pet like they’re my own, not just another booking.
“Karli did a great job looking after my cat. She showed up on time, followed the feeding instructions, let my cat out on the balcony. My cat obviously liked since she sat on Karli's lap the very first time.”
About: I have 14 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments.

“Jeanne is a wonderful dog sitter! This was our first time using Rover and Jeanne made the entire process so easy. She was extremely accommodating to our specific needs for Nairobi’s daycare. Nairobi and her dog Kona got along so well and Jeanne sent us pictures and updates every day. We know we have found our go to dog sitter and we look forward to having our pup stay with her again.”
“Great communication, very friendly, and did a fantastic job looking after Gunner. Would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing a dog sitter, and would use again if the need arises.”
“Dez loves her furrfriends and piggies too! Laura is fantastic and Dez loves her sooo much too!!!! Thank you Laura for peace of mind that Dez is happy and having a blast -while I am off working my long appt days.”
About: We have taken care of dogs our whole lives, they are family. All my family members have dogs large and small and bring them over all the time. We have 3 dogs, 2 female & 1 male, all neutered, friendly, loving, and love other dogs. 2 small & 1 medium. We have a large fully enclosed block wall back yard and our pups are mostly in the house with us. I work from home so I am with the pups all the time, they mostly stay in the house and hang out with me in my office, but I let them outside many times throughout the day to play and run around. My dogs love to play and sleep and would love to have another play mate. Our yard is very secure, the dogs sleep in our room with us at night. Very safe and happy environment.
“Thank you Holly for watching my dog. My dog stay with us all the time. Don't have chance to let her stay alone. Holly keep us update also share some great pictures. If you are looking for someone take care your dog. Stronger recommend Holly.”
“LOU WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! He took care of my baby boy Rudy this Saturday (half day) and Rudy literally had the the best time. By the time we picked up Rudy he’d been on two walks with Lou and he was exhausted; which is great it got all of his energy out! I was terrified to leave Rudy with someone while we did some sight seeing in big bear but Lou was literally the best sitter ever. He assured me of Rudy’s safety and protection and it was so much appreciated!! He checked in with me about every half hour to hour and sent me photos on what activity they were doing together!! I know for a fact I’ll be using Lou for his services in the future! Rudy absolutely had a blast with Lou and I just can’t thank him enough for taking care of our furry baby! ❤️ I definitely recommend Lou to anyone looking for a petter sitter he was such a pleasant human being and I can’t thank him enough for treating Rudy so great! Xoxo”
About: My first dog I got when I was in the 4th grade. She changed my life. Now I’ve never been able to connect with a dog on that level since her but I still love them. & hope some day I will be able to give my kids that. I am a single mom with 3 kids under the age of 6. Adding a fur baby to the mix just isn’t in the cards for me right now. & after this year I’m looking to get back on my feet. So I thought this could be a good way to make some extra money to help us. We are a very active bunch. Love hiking, walking, and pretty much anything outdoors. Like I said before we are always outside. I like to take walks in the morningsevenings. Love hiking. I work from home so I can make my own schedule. Depends on the dog. Just like my kids each one is different. What works for one might not work for the other. I would like to mimic as much as the dogs normal as possible.
“Julija and her family take such good care of Moon while I’m at work. I feel like I can breathe knowing that she is in good hands whenever I drop her off. She always falls fast asleep as soon as I pick her up too, which tells me she has a blast while there! I highly recommend her as your dog sitter!”
About: Hi! My name is Ronnie, and jointly with my spouse who has also been in the field, we have boarded & hosted daycare in our home. We just moved and would like to start building our clientele even further. We are both very experienced in pet sitting. For the past six years, I have dedicated my life to the care and well-being of dogs and cats at every stage of life from fragile newborns to cherished seniors. My experience spans both general veterinary practice and high-volume shelter environments, giving me a deep understanding of medical, behavioral, and emotional needs. In a general practice setting, I have provided hands-on support to veterinarians, ensuring that patients receive thorough exams, treatments, and follow-up care. In the shelter field, I have assisted in managing the care of animals arriving from diverse and often challenging backgrounds, including those who have been neglected, abandoned, or are fearful of human interaction. My surgical experience includes working alongside doctors to assist with 25+ surgeries a day, maintaining a fast-paced, highly organized workflow while ensuring each animal’s safety, comfort, and recovery needs are met. I am skilled in pre- and post-operative care, monitoring anesthesia, and providing gentle handling during moments of stress or vulnerability. Whether bottle-feeding orphaned kittens, offering enrichment for long-term residents, or patiently building trust with animals showing signs of fear, reactivity, or aggression, I always approach my work with empathy and respect for the individual needs of each animal. I pride myself on being both loving and attentive, noticing subtle changes in behavior or appetite that may indicate a need for intervention. I have worked extensively with dogs that display escape behaviors or aggression, applying patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement to help them feel secure. Every animal in my care is treated as if they were my own, and I believe that compassion, trust, and understanding are the foundation for helping them thrive, whether they’re still learning the ropes or enjoying their golden years. I maintain a flexible schedule and am committed to being available whenever I am needed to provide the highest standard of care. Meet & greets may vary depending on availability on whether or not I am currently hosting. When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment tailored to each animal’s needs. This includes maintaining a consistent feeding schedule, providing plenty of fresh water, regular potty breaks, daily exercise, playtime, and mental stimulation. I ensure they have cozy, clean spaces for rest and always supervise interactions to keep them safe and happy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely to maintain the animal’s normal routine, reducing stress and keeping them comfortable in their familiar surroundings. This may include feeding, walking, litter box cleaning, administering medication, grooming, and offering companionship. I also provide updates, photos, and videos so clients have peace of mind while they’re away. Additionally, I only house one family at a time as a prevention to any potential fights that can breakout. Multiple pets from the same household are welcome, and I do house cats as well. Please keep in mind with cats, they do take some time to warm up to new surroundings and can potentially be stressed during the first couple of days.

You can rest assured that your beloved pet is in good hands in my care! From hiking,walking,running or just cuddling at home,I do it all! I have been through rattlesnake avoidance class. I have vast experience with both senior dogs to puppies and have cared for dogs with special needs-from diabetes to arthritis.

As a stay at home housewife,I have ample time to give your pet the love and attention it needs. Your pets are my first priority! I am currently working part time and am devoted to making sure your baby will get all the love and attention they need and deserve! Our backyard is rattlesnake proofed, and you pet will never be outside alone. I will accommodate any rules you have set up for your pet as to not disrupt any training you have in place.
“Jamie did such a great job watching my pup Drako. I know he had a great time playing with her dogs because he fell asleep as soon as we got home. She sent pictures and updates. I highly recommend her!”
“So grateful that we found Diana and Adam. Frankie is a pretty shy, but he wants to break out from his shell and make new friends. Diana has been incredibly helpful with this! Her pups are so well behaved, she makes sure to match the dogs who all get along and play well together. I feel so comfortable leaving Frankie in their care. Frankie leaves just having a happy energy and super tuckered from learning and playing all day. He has already made huge steps in socializing thanks Diana and Adam! 🙂”
About: I have been a dog owner of years & years. I absolutely love dogs and my puppies love to make new friends. Let’s be friends! Being a stay at home mom gives me the opportunity to go on multiple walks a day, dog park when we want & to be involved & interactive at all times. My pets are loved on all day long, cuddles, playing catch, going on walks, puppy play dates. The kennel is often a safe place for some pups, which we do have in this case.
About: I grew up with the privilege of a four legged best friend greating me everyday when I got home and keeping me company on my long running rounds. I have trained our dogs and competed in tracing and obedience. A dog is a precious family member who need lots of love, cuddling and long walks. With a dog it’s easy to walk the extra mile, find new friends and spend time enjoying the outdoor. At the moment we don’t have our own dog, but our family would love your dog as if it was our own best friend. With two teenagers in the house, there will always be someone ready to cuddle and spend time together with in the backyard or in the pool. I’m looking forward to get to know you and your four legged friends.
“Clare was wonderful! She provided everything we needed for our dogs. She was accommodating when our transportation plan to pick up at the end of the days was seriously compromised. She communicated throughout the day about how the dogs were doing and also responded immediately when informed that we would be delayed by quite a bit. She was gracious and kind as well. I have already recommended her to friends and will use her again when we return to this area.”
“Jennifer was great! She was friendly, communicative and ready for us bright and early. I got pictures of Whiskey throughout the day which was comforting knowing he was doing well in her home. Thank you Jennifer for welcoming Whiskey into your home.”
“Randy and Kay took excellent care of our french bulldog puppy. This was his first time away from us, but I felt totally at ease once I dropped him off. Randy and Kay were thoughtful enough to send updates. We would be happy to use them again!”

About: Hello Pet Parents, I'm back to pet sitting after being gone awhile. I was working full time but now I am retired- woo hoo! A little about myself. Friends will tell you that I will run up to greet an animal first before a person - LOL - sad but true! I've volunteered at the AZ Humane Society and rescued all my dogs m from the AZ Animal Welfare League. My last job was working for PetSmart Charities. I just returned from volunteering at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Kanab, UT. It was amazing. Please give me a call so we can all have a meet & greet! Thank you! Holly I’ve recently retired and looking to get out of my husband’s hair! I love meeting new pets and adding adventures to their lives since they aren’t with us long enough! At home, we have a pet door and a fully fenced yard. I also own 2 donkeys but I don’t allow them to meet. All it takes is one kick. I’m all about safety first.

About: I'm was professional pet trainer at a major retail chain. I've lived with a dog, cat, chinchilla, hamster, bird, or fish most of my life. I love fur babies and want help people when they need to be away from their beloved pets. Most recently, I helped sit a household with four elderly dogs with various medical needs. I have experience giving medications to dogs, as well as dogs with disabilities like blindness and deafness. Ideally with pet sitting, my wife and I would meet the dogs and/or cats before we pet sit to learn their specific needs, and learn where the food and treats hide. Depending on the pets and the weather, we like long hikes/walks and short trips around the neighborhood. You actually receive two pet sitters with me. My spouse will be home most of the time while I'm at work. I'm also a certified pet sitter with Pet Sitters International. I'm a Vocational Specialist, and my wife and I work together when petsitting, so she's there when I'm not. We work together and it's a team business. I like to learn the current routine of your beloved pet(s) and try to keep their routine for their comfort. I make sure I learn your house rules and will not let those puppy dog eyes persuade me to let them on the couch unless you say it is ok. I have my Pet First Aid Course and am taking other courses to increase my Pet Safety knowledge.
About: My name is Sage, I am 22 years old. I am a part-time artist and enjoy being active, outdoors, and being in the company of all kinds of animals. At home I have a 19 year old cat named Peppermint, an 11 year old Doberman mix named Katie and a 12 year old Russian tortoise, Opal. I have the most experience taking care of medium to large size dogs and pets who need medications, specific diets, and schedules. I am happy to do check-ins, walks, and lots of pets and playing as needed! With pets of my own, I am used to fitting potty brakes and walks into a busy schedule. Right now I have more than enough time to play with and get to know your pets :) Throughout my day, I always make sure to include them in the big thing. If I feel like going for a walk there’s always a buddy to tagalong. I treat animals like people and appreciate their good company.

I work very flexible hours part-time which mostly consists of work from home, this leaves my schedule wide open for overnight care and long stays. Very good at keeping consistency with feeding and medication schedules, as well as making sure potty breaks taken as frequently as needed (experience with special needs dogs who require being let outside/cleaned up after much more than other dogs).

About: Since I was young, my household has always had pets. I’ve owned dogs, cats, birds, hamster, fish & even iguanas! Never a dull moment! As I grew older my love and passion for animals grew as well. Being around animals and receiving their unconditional love fills my heart. While in my care, your fur baby will be well taken care of. They will have a friend to play with, if they want, and will be given tons of love and attention. I have a chihuahua terrier mix that I adopted in July of 2018, and she is great around other dogs. So your fur baby will have a new best friend as well. I look forward to meeting you & your furbaby I work from home from 6am-3pm. If I’m needed to stay in your home, I would just work my day there in your place and be with your furbaby all day.

I’m not able to take dogs into my home because I have a rescue dog named Rango that is a little unpredictable with other dogs. I’d be happy to stay with your pup in your home and keep them comfortable. I would just need to know your furbaby’s routine and feeding schedule. I can also do drop in visits and dog walks M-F after 3:30pm and on the weekends anytime as long as I’m available.

About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs for friends, family, and referrals, and I approach every booking with a high level of attentiveness and respect for your dog’s routine. I’m comfortable with a range of temperaments and energy levels, and I take the time to understand what makes each dog feel secure—whether that’s structure, play, or a calm, consistent presence. My style is thoughtful and observant. I don’t just “watch” dogs—I pay attention to their behavior, energy, and environment so they feel safe, settled, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I maintain a flexible schedule and am selective with bookings so I can provide a high level of care and attention. When I’m in town, I have strong availability for walks, drop-ins, and sitting—particularly afternoons, evenings, and weekends.

I follow your instructions closely and make sure your dog’s environment stays consistent and low-stress.

I’m best suited for well-socialized dogs and am not able to take on cases involving aggressive behavior.

About: Hi I'm Allie. I'm 27 years old and I've owned a dog since I was about 5 years old. I often dog sit for many of my neighbors and family members. I am available almost always, although I do have a job. I'll spend quality time with your furry friend and take great care of them! Dogs are one of my favorite animals and being able to just hangout with your pooch all day sounds like a dream come true. I can handle any size dog. I have taken care of great danes, shepards, and labs. My own dogs are medium sized labs so I can definitely handle a bigger dog. I also love small dogs and cats! Curling up on the couch with a little guy sounds like an ideal day to me. I work part time as a bartender/server so i will definitely have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I will always make sure to check up on them before and after work. I always make sure there is clean water for the pets easily available throughout the day. Whenever the pet is outside I make sure to watch them, especially if there is a pool. I am a high energy person so I do well entertaining the pets.
About: As your Friendly Neighborhood Pet Sitter, my experience includes caring for my childhood cats: Smokey, Cuddles and Patches, and dog Jackson. My childhood animals helped build a solid foundation in learning how to be a responsible, caring, and loving pet owner. When I became an adult, my dog Jasper, and cats Tabitha and Missy helped solidify that experience. That's when I began taking on additional responsibilities of caring for the pets of family and friends. I have many wonderful memories of caring for my dad's cat Ziggy and dog Lucy. Responsibilities like feeding, grooming, exercising, and playtime of animals (especially for other people's pets) is a big responsibility. It's a job I take seriously and enjoy, but above all, these animals helped form the friendly, caring, and loving pet sitter I am today! I'm a stay-at-home mom of a son in 7th grade, so I have availability in my routine to walk, feed, and play with your pets when you are at work during the day. When I visit your home as a pet sitter, first I will be responsible and secure with any passcodes, and keys that you have entrusted in me to care for your animal. In addition, safety is my priority. Any door that I open, I will make sure is closed. Any concerns with the temperature (especially on those hot days) or any other issues with the home I will make sure I address with you. I will make sure your pet has been safe and happy since being left alone. And above all, I will play, exercise, feed, and care for your animal and give it the love and friendly attention it deserves!

As long as we can still get on her schedule!! 😂”

In fact, when we are dropping him off, we open the car door and he just bursts out and runs right up the their door! I have to get his attention to say goodbye :). He absolutely loves it there, and we will continue having Darlene and David take care of Baxter while we are away, as long as they are available!!!”

About: Hi! I’m Kaitlin, a lifelong dog lover and the proud owner of a friendly Border Collie named Koko. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your dog, so I treat every pet in my care like family. My home is calm, clean, and fully fenced, and because I spend most of my time at home, dogs are rarely left alone for long periods. Whether your dog loves playing, exploring the yard, going for walks, or simply relaxing on the couch, I do my best to help them feel comfortable and at home. I care for a limited number of dogs at a time so that each pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and individualized care. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality, routine, and preferences so I can help them feel comfortable, safe, and at home during their stay. I know being away from your dog can be difficult, so I provide regular photo updates and messages throughout their stay to help you stay connected and give you peace of mind. My Border Collie, Koko, is friendly, well-socialized, and enjoys having canine guests.

I would highly recommend Shushma, and we plan to use her services again.”
