House Sitting in Whitehead

“Danielle was amazing with our animals! She was super flexible with our last minute plans and was fast to respond to texts. We also enjoyed the several pictures we received while we were away. We will definitely use her again in the future!”

“Breyana was absolutely fantastic! She communicated frequently with updates and photos to make me feel comfortable while she was staying with my dogs overnight for a few days. I have had a few Rover sitters before and she was the best yet! Definitely would recommend, 10/10”

“Our pets had a wonderful with Gracie. Our dog who is part Aussie had a great time with Gracie’s Aussie. Communication was amazing and made us relax about their well being while away. We’ll certainly be calling Gracie on our next trip.”

About: I've grown up with a love of all animals and have had at least one dog or cat in the family for as long as I can remember. My mom managed a boarding and training kennel and took me to work with her every day, where I not only assisted her with the daily tasks, but also learned about caring for animals of all types and sizes. I started pet sitting for family and friends around the age of 10, and also was responsible for taking care of the pets in our home. I take my animals out for regular playtime and bathroom breaks, clean up the yard, and feed and water as needed. We have an older dog so I've also gotten comfortable with administering medication, whether it's chewable, hiding pills in treats, or injecting into the animal itself. I was bit by the pet lover bug at an early age, and it's become a huge passion in my life. My schedule is open and ready to accommodate any of your pet sitting needs. I have reliable transportation so I can either stay overnight to pet sit for you or stop by for a quick check-in or playtime. I will treat your dog or cat like a member of my own fur family.I am comfortable feeding, crating, and administering medicine as needed. I will put the safety of your animals above everything else, so rest assured your pets are my top priority.

About: I've had many years of experience between keeping my own animals as well as house sitting or just dropping in to check on your pets! I also offer the same service for reptiles! Preferably would like to service closer to Wytheville but will travel in some cases, extra fees will apply depending on distance! I currently have a full time job but I am looking to quit so I can focus on doing nails and going to school part time for that but I need a side hustle! I live in a school bus so I don't really have tons of room to take care of pets there but I am more than willing to come to their homes, I'd prefer that the pet is comfortable as possible and I cannot stay overnight in a home but I can stay as long as needed to make sure the care requirements are met

About: I stand out through my dedication to delivering unparalleled care tailored to the unique needs of every dog. With specialized expertise in training puppies and providing attentive senior care, I bring a deep understanding of canine behavior and health. I prioritize safety, comfort, and personalized attention, ensuring each furry client receives nurturing and enriching experiences. My commitment to fostering strong bonds and creating positive, memorable interactions sets me apart as a compassionate and trusted caregiver at Rover. I am retired and looking for walking activities to keep me busy with the things I enjoy the most, PETS!! I love being around them as much as possible. When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize their comfort, well-being, and adherence to any specific routines or instructions provided by the owner. Here’s how I approach different pet care services: Dog Sitting: Daily Routine: I maintain the dog's regular feeding schedule, ensuring they have access to fresh water at all times. Exercise and Play: I engage the dog in activities they enjoy, such as walks, playtime, and mental stimulation to keep them active and happy. Comfort: I provide cozy resting areas and ensure the environment is safe and secure. Medication: If required, I administer medications according to the owner's instructions. Dog Walking: Safety First: Before the walk, I check equipment like leashes and harnesses to ensure they are secure. Exploration: I take dogs on stimulating walks in safe areas, allowing them to explore and enjoy their surroundings. Hydration: I bring water for hydration, especially during warmer weather. Positive Reinforcement: I use positive reinforcement techniques to encourage good behavior during walks.

“I was kind of in between a rock and a hard place.. I had to go out of town in a week, and didn’t want to leave my dog in a kennel again.. he has special needs and kennels have too many dogs to pay special attention to him so I tried Rover... My request for assistance was accepted right away. I was always able to reach the sitters and they sent me updates and statuses ... definitely recommend Cheyannes assistance if you need a sitter”

About: I have had animals all my life. I grew up with four dogs, a cat, and a bird! We rescued all of them and gave them a loving home full of attention and all the treats they could ever want. I would also pet sit for friends every so often. Because of this, I have learned a lot about everything that comes with being a pet owner. I now live here in North Carolina with my boyfriend and we have our sweet cat, Pretzel. I currently have a full-time job in West Jefferson. I am available for drop ins anytime during the weekends and late afternoon/nights during the week. I can do drop ins and do whatever I need to do to care for your pet whether that's playing with them, feeding them, or changing the litter. I can also walk dogs as well!

“Dayna was amazing - she responded quickly and sent pics. We have an old beagle who mostly sleeps but gets really anxious when we go away . Dayna was there for him and took great care of him and our house.”

“Katy was an AMAZING dog sitter! Our pup is a little anxious and she was so sweet making sure he was comfortable and happy. She sent us updates and pictures and was very quick to respond whenever I messaged her to check in. She stayed at our place and was a wonderful guest. We came home to a super clean house and everything exactly as we left it. Wally was definitely super happy when he was with her and I would 1000% use Katy again to dog/house sit!”

About: I truly love animals. My love grew from a young age having grown up with all different kinds of animals. From cats & dogs, horses, a couple pigs & goats, and cows. I have also watched friends, family & neighbors animals throughout the years which I loved and enjoyed. With my extra time I would love to help you out by taking care of your animal as I do my own. I currently work full time. I am available for morning and afternoon drop ins Monday through Friday. I have limited weekday availability but still offer house sitting and boarding with specific hour as I will be gone at my job. I am very flexible on the weekends and can cater my schedule to what your individual pet needs. I have 3 loving pups American Bully Vegas, Chocolate lab Hattie May, Blue Heeler Cheyenne, a cow named Annie and cat named Rye. I have a fenced in yard with lots of running space available. If your furry guest needs to have more alone time or is more comfortable with one-on-one, that is possible. Fresh water is poured daily and feedings happen at an individual pace. Treats will only be given with owner's permission. Any outside activity is always monitored.

“I have two dogs with very different personalities. Kitty was wonderful with both. Her dogs are very friendly and the crew quickly got to know each other and got along quickly. Kitty has a wonderful way of working with dogs. I will be asking her to take care of the pups again in the future!”

About: I grew up taking care of all different breeds of dogs, and there’s nothing else I’d rather do! I started out caring for my own, then I started caring for my family’s and friend’s pets too. My experience ranges from caring for puppies and senior dogs. I had a 14 year old lab that I had to provide senior care on, from feeding by hand, cleaning her up, and administering medicine. I am working full time at the moment but am more than excited to spend my days off with your fur babies! As of right now I am available most weekends, and nights. I care for my dogs by letting them run around during the day, I have a huge yard with plenty of space. At night my dogs like to sleep in their crate.

“Destiny did a good job watching my 2 doggies. A yorkie and pit bull mix. She offered to have an early meet and greet which helped them recognize her when she came to stay. House was neat and clean when I came home. I did have to reach out for my updates but not a big deal.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a kid. Family and friends trust me to take care of their pets.

I’m trustworthy with any dog I’m around. Thank you

“Sarah is a great pet sitter, all 4 of my animals seemed to be very comfortable with her. She left the house very tidy when we came home after a long weekend. We have hired her twice now and she will be out first choice next time we need a sitter”

About: I am a self-employed, stay-at-home mom who LOVES animals of all kinds, from bearded dragons to Bernese Mountain dogs, parakeets to Pekingese. Our current fuzzy companions include our Great Pyrenees, Rocky; two cats, Mrs. Kitty and Portland and 4 Peking ducks. Past menageries have includes chinchillas, hamsters, rabbits, rats, dogs, cats, parakeets, tarantulas and lizards. My husband and I have three girls, ages 3, 9 and 14, that I seem to have passed the animal obsession bug to.

We are athletic, outdoorsy people, so if you are looking for a dog walker, we would love to help out! We are happy to pick up and drop off as needed, and would love to help out with whatever you may need! We have two cats, four ducks and a dog, so I'm very used to caring for animals. Working your fur baby into our routine will be a pleasure! Your pet will be treated as our own and smothered with attention from our kids :) If you have any specific needs, please let me know! I can administer meds.
