“Elise did a fantastic job watching our elderly, very particular dog. He normally is very scared of strangers, and will sometimes not go outside for walks with sitters. Elise did a great job of gaining his trust and getting him out! She was very accommodating, and on time.”
“Very punctual, attentive, kind, all the things. Because one of our three cats was undergoing a diet trial, the usual to-do list for our weekend away was a bit more complicated than average. She handled it just fine, no problems, and took some lovely pics to boot.”
About: With years of hands-on experience in veterinary medicine and volunteering at the YCAS shelter in Woodland, I offer a level of knowledge and calm that goes beyond basic pet sitting. I’ve worked with puppies, seniors, and dog-reactive pets. I tailor my care to each animal’s unique personality and needs, whether that’s energetic play, gentle walks, or giving medication. Your pet will be treated like my own. Pet care is my top priority right now, and my schedule is wide open! I’m currently extremely flexible for drop in visits or walks throughout the day. I love making sure pets get consistent care and attention, no matter how busy your routine may be. I treat your home and your pets with total respect and care. During walks and drop-in visits, I always keep your pet’s safety and happiness first by using positive reinforcement, keeping a close eye on surroundings, and following your care instructions exactly. I’ll send updates, photos, and videos so you never have to wonder how your furry friend is doing. My approach is gentle, responsible, and tailored to each animal’s comfort level.
About: I have been watching sweet fur babies since I was in grade school. I have been responsible for feeding, walking, cleaning up after, and giving lots of attention to my customer’s furry friends. I promise to treat your fur baby like my own and I can’t wait to meet you! I work part time so I can walk and care for your pets regularly, giving them all of the attention they need in the morning, midday, and night. I am very detail oriented so I will be able to give your pet quality care as well as ensure they are safe in their environment. I have my own dog and want to treat every pet the way I would want others to treat my Daisy Duke.
“Olivia was amazing. She really came through at short notice and was super great with the cats. I could tell they were all happy, relaxed and comfortable when my roommate and I came back home. This was our first time using Rover and a huge relief to know someone was checking in on the kitties.”
“Jessica was the best! I had her watch my kitties for a couple days and just loved her daily updates with all of the pictures. (She takes fab pics btw, made Kale look like a little model😁) My cats were content and relaxed when I got back so I know they were in good hands. When she returned the key to me, she gave me a little package with the nicest note and some cat treats and a cat toy which was SO NICE of her!! Will definitely be booking again, thank you Jessica!”
“Sydney is very personable and did an excellent job caring for our very energetic rottweiler as well as our senior kitty. She was on time, trust worthy and responsible and just a kind positive person. I would trust her again in a heartbeat with my pets!”
“Alyssa went wayyy above and beyond looking after my dogs and cats. The crew all loved her, and even the shy cats came out for pictures. She really made an extra efforst to make sure my dogs got a lot of attention and treats and outside time. I highly, highly recommend her!”
About: I love animals of all types! My first pet sitting experience was at the age of 10 with a very sweet German Shephard, Storm. Over the years I've connected with many a canine, feline, and on occasion, equine family members. It's an honor to be trusted by you, and more importantly your four legged companion to care for them while you're away. I'm comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes and levels of energy. You'll see many pictures of me and my late pup Jude. I had the pleasure of being his parent all 15years he roamed this earth. From potty training, behavior training, grooming and senior care. I've done it all. I work full time and take long lunch breaks, which affords me time to take care of myself as well as spend time with and/or walk your fur baby. I'm available on the weekends for extended visits or walks. In the evening I'm able to do the same. I live on the 5th floor in a small apartment. If I am boarding your animals overnight, it will need to be in your home. Whatever accommodations your home has for your pet, I'll happily utilize them to ensure their comfort.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life — I have 3 dogs and 2 cats now, and I’ve raised everything from ducks to horses. I grew up with dogs, hatched and cared for ducks, and worked as a ranch hand, so I’m confident handling animals of all sizes and temperaments. Whether it’s a playful pup, a shy cat, or farm animals, I bring calm energy, patience, and lots of love. I work part-time, so I have plenty of time during the week to give your pets the attention they deserve. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just some extra love while you’re away, I’m flexible and happy to work around your pet’s routine. I don’t offer boarding, but I’m more than happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home. I know how important it is for animals to feel safe and relaxed in their own space, and I’ll make sure their routine is followed, their needs are met, and they get plenty of love while you’re away.

Village Homes pet parents share their Rover experiences
Cannot recommend Allison ENOUGH!! My sweet girl Winnie is a senior dog that’s veeery shy. I have a hard time finding someone that she’ll trust to take her outside to go potty. That being said, Allison took amazing care of her and was so patient!! So much so, that Winnie eventually let her take her outside which is a BIG deal for her! Allison is very knowledgeable and dependable when it comes to pet care!!
Bella was a wonderful cat sitter! She was incredibly sweet and responsible while taking care of my cat, Mochi. She kept me updated with regular messages and adorable pictures, which helped ease my mind while I was away. I could tell Mochi was in great hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter! :))
Nicholas was amazing with our 3 cats and they all loved him! He went above and beyond to make sure they were cared for and was very communicative during our trip. He is very good with animals and a trustworthy sitter. We would love to have him look after our cats again in the future.
Noel was amazing with my puppy and older cavalier. She was patient with my mouthy puppy and made them so happy while I was gone. She was also very good at communication! I only had her for a short visit but I look forward to (and so do my two dogs) hiring her again!!!
Audrey took excellent care of our dogs while we were out of town! She was punctual, knowledgeable, and very professional. Most importantly, she made sure our dogs were well taken care of and updated us with pictures! I will plan on using her services whenever possible. Highly recommend!
