Highly-rated overnight sitters - Shoreham
“Went above and beyond with my fragile old dog! Actually got him to eat, tried a number of things including sitting with him to get him comfortable...amazing.. he typically will not eat at any pet care situation but with this sitter he came home just like I dropped him off…normal. She is so sweet and caring such a good experience for him particularly because he just lost his brother. He also seemed to get on well with her doggy who was very friendly. Obviously, a very gentle and generous dog who shared his home with no difficulty. I can not tell you all the ways in which she supported my dog in this situation and what amazing communication she provided to ease my mind. Several pictures a day with details on his condition both emotional and physical. Do not hesitate to use this wonderful person and true dog whisperer! You will feel instantly comfortable and connected to your fur baby as you travel!”
“Hanna was absolutely fantastic with my 2 dogs! She was attentive to all of my requests as a dog parent, she sent constant picture updates of them having fun, and she returned them to me in wonderful spirits and cleaner than before. For anyone in need of a dog sitter, look no further. She is a reliable and wonderful caretaker.”
“Jenny was fantastic watching our dog, Weko. She kept him active and engaged and shared many updates. We are often weary leaving him but she instantly put us at ease leaving him in her care. I would highly recommend Jenny and will book again!”

“We were in a bind when our original sitter got sick right before we had to leave for my son’s wedding, and Stacy came through for us at the very last minute. She was absolutely wonderful with Sophie, so patient and kind. She sent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. We’d definitely love to use her again in the future.”

“Maegan was great!! She left out kitties in a nice clean, warm space especially with the storm that passed. She had great communication and did everything we asked of her. It seemed like our cats really liked her too! Would definitely have her again.”
“An absolutely phenomenal pet sitter. We could not have found a better person to watch our cats while we were gone for several days. Hanna dropped in twice a day to care for our cats while we were out of town. She is super friendly and warm and sweet. Our cats fell in love with her instantly. We invited her husband to visit our place with her , and he was great with the cats too. Hanna was a great communicator. She kept us up-to-date and reached out if she had questions. She also sent us numerous photos and videos of our cats as she cared for them. That’s how we know how good she was with them. For most of us who have pets, they are almost like our kids, and we want to leave them in the best care possible when away. Hanna is the person to take care of your animals. If you are in need of someone to watch your animals while you were away, ask Hanna before anybody else. You will not be disappointed, I promise. We will absolutely reach out to Hanna again for future travels.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Shoreham
“My beagle, Annie, spent half a day getting acquainted with Summer, Jazzie, and Finn. After some initial anxiety over being left, she settled in very well thanks to Summer's responsiveness. Soon after I left, she took Annie for a walk with her dogs which distracted and relaxed her a bit. When I picked her up, she was happy and had gotten along well with Jazzie and Finn. Summer responded quickly to my texts and let me know how Annie was doing with texts and pics.”

“Olivia took wonderful care of our 38 lb, energetic Blue Heeler. She was calm and loving to our dog, and our dog responded in a positve way to her. She sent us pictures of our happy, calm dog during the day, which we appreciated. And we loved that Olivia only has one dog in the house at a time (other than her own sweet little dog). She invited us to use her again, and we will definitely take her up on it.”
“Calm energy, easy to work with, and super accommodating. I was nervous my dog would show signs of separation anxiety or show dominance with other dogs prior to daycare. Brianne's presence was so welcoming that my dog was happy to be there. She was also able to orchestrate a soft introduction to 2 other dogs boarding with her and my dog actually did really well. So grateful! Thanks Brianne!”
“Our Lizzy was well taken care of when staying with Michaelynn. She had a lot of activity and attention. Michaelynn was very good with communication. Will definitely use her services again.”
“Hanna has been a lifesaver as me and my dog Poppy adjust to the area and with the move! Poppy loves going to Hanna’s and playing with her new friends. Poppy is super anxious around other dogs, but she LOVES Hanna’s pups. It’s such a great feeling as a pet owner to know when I drop Poppy off she’s more excited to be there than she is to be at home!”

“Jeremiah is definitely a dog person. My pup couldn't wait to greet him the second time I hired him, going right up to him and wagging her tail. The surroundings of his place are perfect for the walks he takes her on - lots to sniff and explore. He is very conscientious about securing her with a double leash.Thank you, Jeremiah.”

About: With many years of experience I am highly qualified to care for your pet. Growing up I started a neighborhood pet care business where I would watch my neighbors pets when they were on vacation. This quickly grew and I started letting out neighborhood dogs after school when their parents would get home late. I also grew up with 2 Labradors retrievers and a Corgi. Due to my ever changing schedule I’m not able to commit to adopting a dog at this time so I’ve come to Rover to help the community and get my fill of animal therapy. Currently I am working from home with a part time schedule. A lot of my work can be done at any time. This leaves me ample time to care for your pet. I have a building just outside of downtown that has a large area in the back. There is a park that is around the corner and plenty of sidewalks for walks. Inside my home there are hardwood floors with area rugs. I am a very neat and organized person so there is nothing your pet will be able to get into.

About: Hi! My name is Audrey! I am a former nurse and used to take care of humans for a living but am pursuing a career change. I now take care of fur babies, but my 7 years of nursing experience has taught me patience, flexibility, and safety skills (as well as making me an expert at cleaning pee and poop). I've been a dog owner and taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I've had multiple dogs growing up and currently own my 10-year old Golden Shepherd Mix rescue, Maxx. It brings me so much joy and happiness to meet any and all dogs/cats and to give them love and attention they deserve. I volunteer at the Humane Society to help socialize those dogs and give them love but also to gain experience meeting as many dogs as possible to learn more on how to identify dog behavior/body language and how to gain their trust when meeting a new person. I also love taking fun pictures, so you will get lots of pictures of your fur baby while you're gone. I also work part time as a barista and will occasionally be working 4 to 8 hr shifts periodically throughout the week, but with enough notice, I can try to adjust my schedule to accommodate for you if your pet can't be alone for long periods of time. I can't imagine a life without having a fur baby, and I hope I get to help take care of yours! I work part time as a barista and my schedule changes every week with shifts varying from 4-8hrs long at a time. With enough notice (usually about 2-3 weeks ahead ideally), I can adjust my schedule to try and accommodate for you especially if your pet can't be alone for long periods of time. I'm willing and able to do any day of the week! I'm fairly flexible, so I'll do my best to get my schedule to work with yours. I live in a cozy 2-bedroom apartment with a lot of space to walk around the apartment complex. There is a fenced in dog runner at this complex too.

My current boy Jax is 3 years old. Being a pitbull mom, I obviously have extensive experience with larger breeds including leash aggressiveness.

About: Hello, I'm a big animal lover. Life is always better with furry friends! I have pretty much always had a dog most of my life & always consider them family. I was lucky & got to be there when my former fur baby was born. Her mom let me massage her hips & tummy while in labor. It was her 1st litter & she was awesome!! She let me handle all 9 of the babies after she was done delivering so we could transfer all them to a clean bed & to help rotate at feeding time to ensure they all ate. All 9 survived & were healthy!! I was also a "doula" for my mom's cats pregnancy & she let me massage her tummy & handle her babies right away also. It's a blessing to see & be a part of. I would love to provide a safe and comfortable care for your pet while you are away. I used to have birds, cats, fish, been around reptiles & snakes, turtles, I worked at an eagle rapture center in Alaska which is where I'm from. I have a strong belief to only work in something you love so here I am. :-) Your pet will receive the same love & attention as if they were my own & provide plenty of pictures.

About: I have had a dog my whole life, and I now have two! Animals hold a special place in my heart. I used to volunteer at an animal shelter for almost two years, taking care of and walking numerous breeds. I’m currently taking some time off as a nurse, so I would love to do this on the side before I start working as a nurse again. I have two small dogs that get along well with other dogs. I don’t have a fenced in yard, but lots of walks solve that problem!
About: Hello I am Emily! I am a great dog-walker, tug a war player and a responsible dog lover! My schedule is very flexible. I live just a block away from a big park. I have had big labradors all my life but I don’t discriminate! I love small and massive dogs alike. When I was younger I started a dog biscuit business and would cater dog parties. I hope you allow me the chance to get to babysit your 4 legged best friend! I am a small business owner and can typically step out of my store whenever your pup needs me. My shop is right downtown st. Joesph Working in clients home is best as my dog is a little to rambunctious at times. I’ve found it to be most comfortable for your pet to be in there own home with all treats, toys and normal comforts.

“We were in a bind when our original sitter got sick right before we had to leave for my son’s wedding, and Stacy came through for us at the very last minute. She was absolutely wonderful with Sophie, so patient and kind. She sent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. We’d definitely love to use her again in the future.”
