House Sitting in Volente

“I can't speak highly enough of Christine! She was attentive, communicative, and overall just such an amazing sitter for our pets. She went above and beyond to make our pets feel at home, safe, and loved. We will also reach out to Christine to watch our babies and you should too!”

“Molly was an amazing sitter! She sent me pics of my babies multiple times a day, kept me updated on their feedings and my dogs meds. Enjoyed having her watch over my babies, and def trust her to do it again in the future :3”

“Cortney was fantastic! Right when we met at our meet and greet I felt reassured we were leaving our pups in great hands. She is super professional, impeccably timely, and is an obvious dog lover and experienced pet/ house sitter. We have two dogs - a 4 month old Border Collie puppy and 3 year old Border Collie. Cortney was able to manage and support their high energy seamlessly. What a wonderful relief to leave our dogs with Cortney- I was able to focus on family time while out of town with the peace of mind all was taken care of at home. We will definitely seek to book Cortney for our future needs.”

“Our strong willed energetic 5 month old puppy, Yoshi, loved Katie immediately. We left her in Katie’s care for a week and didn’t have to worry about either one of them at all. It was apparent they enjoyed each other, and Yoshi got as much love and care from Katie as she would have with us at home. After we got home, Yoshi was still right by Katie, wagging her tail and eating up the attention. Thank you, Katie, for all you did to entertain and care for our pup! We’ve found a wonderful sitter for Yoshi and will refer Katie to others!”

“Jorden rocks! We frequently book with her for house sitting of our golden retrievers. She’s trustworthy, dependable, and goes the extra mile. We’re so grateful for her.”

“Meredith stayed at my home with 2 labs for close to a week. We had a big trip scheduled when one of them got kennel cough and could not be boarded. Meredith sent us regular pictures and updates on them, and she was able to administer the medicine to the sick one. We’re home now and the dogs are happy and well.”

“Erika was amazing with our dog. We had a last minute emergency and she was more than willing to come watch Milo for us! She was super sweet with him and met all his needs. Will definitely book again if we come visit Austin and need a date night :)”

“Kierra was fantastic with my pup, showed her love and made sure she was comfortable while I was gone. Kierra was very responsive and communicative the entire time and I'd recommend her to anyone.”

“Geoffrey is the best pet sitter! We’re repeat clients and have used his services multiple times with our dogs. He’s reliable, trustworthy and caring for our pups. We always feel comfortable knowing our dogs are in good care with him.”

Amanda G.

“Michael is a top tier sitter. We are very nervous dog parents but we know Banjo and our home are in good hands when Michael is here. Banjo is always so happy and healthy whenever we come home and we can finally spend weekends away without worrying about our boy.”

Alicea B.

“This was the first time our 11 yo black mouth cur Delilah had stayed with a sitter. Shelley treated Delilah like her own! Lots of attention and extra care. We received pics and updates throughout the stay. Shelley ended up dropping off Delilah at our home. As Shelley was leaving, Delilah ran to her to say goodbye! Clearly Delilah gives Shelley 5 barks too! We’ve already rebooked.”

Cathleen E.

“I cannot say enough good things about Ms Meni. While I was away I had no worries about my fur babies or the house. She kept me posted on how my three very old cats were adjusting to her presence and my absence. She indeed speaks "Meow." Will definitely ask for her again.”

David H.

“Brandy is wonderful and am so grateful to have found her! She is so caring and nurturing to my two Bostons. And is extremely knowledgeable regarding their care and can offer great insight.”

Kristin S.

“Sarah was great with Koda and sent me so many good pictures and videos of my boy - she even went out of her way to get him treats and make sure I approved of them!!! Would definitely book again.”

About: ✳️ No holiday upcharge ✳️Guaranteed daily check-ins and photos for all stays While I am new to Rover, I am extremely familiar with dogs. I foster with 2 different non profit agencies and actually have 3 pups of my own. Aka the stooges or the 3 musketeers as I call them. My own dogs range in size from 13lbs to 105lbs and in age from 3 years to 9 years. All were raised from a puppy stage so I have experience with that stage, too. DOGS LIKE TO LEARN: I am not a professional trainer but have taken what I’ve learned from putting my own 3 through training and applied to foster and visiting pups. You’re welcome to pick something from the list and I’d be happy to start the training with your dog on these! This includes the following: - walking on a dedicated side when in leash (you pick left or right) - heel - sit - place ( huge on this since it allows dogs to settle their anxiousness) - short distance recall - whistle training - clicker training - treat training - spin - roll over - army crawl - leave it - off - take it - break (release from place) - paw - kennel - lay down - drop it - wait (helpful for dogs who like to rush out the door before you) - watch me (helps me out eye contact and focus) - sit before owner opens kennel YOUR PUP: will be treated as one of my own with any additional instructions you provide. I have a full time work from home job that allows me to be with my dogs as much as I’d like. I work my schedule around my dogs meaning I workout when it’s their exercise time or I run errands during their usual down time. I rarely if ever watch tv because I end up spending so much time with my pups routine and care. I truly enjoy it! My home: I have a quarter acre fenced property with a huge covered patio for dogs to enjoy in shade. There are child gates set up within my home to keep dogs in designated areas. This ensures my pups or fosters have access to water stations and dog door for yard access when needed. Yes, I have a dog door that accommodates for dogs up to 130lbs. I have 3 water stations set up in my home and dedicated kennels for our larger and smaller pups when needed. If needed, I am Happy to crate my pups while yours is being cared for in my mentioned care rotation. They are very used to both kennel and out of kennel routines as I have had foster dogs in my home. For dogs with mobility issues that still want to get out and about, I have a dog trailer / stroller that allows them to lay inside a shaded area while still seeing the outdoors. Your home: house sitting and check-ins include more than just your pups care and I’m happy to offer these: - Check mail / sign for any packages - plant care - lights to leave on - any light household chores (vacuum, dishes, laundry, surface cleaning, trash takeout) - being present for any home maintenance appts while you’re away (to match scheduled stay) - communicating w/ any visitors while you’re away (want me to lie to your nosey neighbors? Need me to tell a regular solicitor some info?)

“Shawn did a great job house sitting for our 2 dogs while we went to San Antonio for a couple of days! She was super respectful and she cleaned the tuppies we had dog food portions in, and even picked up after our dogs in the backyard! That’s going above and beyond! We will definitely keep Shawn in mind the next time we leave our beloved mongrels behind! Thanks Shawn!!”

About: I have been house-sitting/pet-sitting for about ten years now! I am able to work weekends and i have a very flexible schedule. I would love to treat your pet to the best care! Pet care fits into my weekly routine with ease. I have very few responsibilities, as I am home from college, and would love to fully commit myself to pet care! I care for my pets personally to the highest quality of care I can provide. I currently have a 5 year old dog and 14 year old one. I accommodate to the 14 year old ones dietary and physical restrictions daily, and am sure to give them all equally a lot of TLC! I take this attitude when I take care of others pets as well.
