Hannah was so great with Daisy! She followed all of the instructions we left and made sure to bond and make Daisy feel comfortable while my husband and I were gone all week on vacation. She provided us daily updates with pictures and was very communicative, which made it so much easier to be away from Daisy for a whole week. I would definitely recommend Hannah to anyone needing a gentle and attentive dog sitter!

About: Hi there! Thank you for checking out my profile! My name is DeAnna; I’ve always had dogs in my life (ones of all sizes from Terrier to Poodles to Great Pyrenees) , and have some experience with cats. I am a certified Dog Obedience Trainer with exceptional experience in dog behavior, learning theory, breed attributes and animal husbandry. Unlike other sitters and walkers you may see, I am willing to offer advice for dog training and grooming. I’m a fast learner, pay attention to even the smallest details, I am a compassionate person willing to go out of my way to make sure your fur baby is happy. If you ever need someone to watch your dogs/cats or just someone to get them out of the house to play, keep me in mind! I will always make sure that I leave your fur babies healthy and happy :) I am currently self employed and have open availability throughout the week, which makes even more time to focus on caring for your pups and giving them the best care I have a full fenced in yard within a quiet neighborhood. We own two very spoiled and very loved dogs who will treat your pup like a brother or sister. Outside of the home, my main priorities are your pup’s safety and the fun they have under my care.

About: I grew up with a dogs and cats. I love their snuggles! I have joined Rover to give myself a bit of boost. I used to have a dog named Mabellene, she was wonderful, I currently own a cat. I’ve always had a pet, so they are the first thing on my mind when I’m leaving the office ……or waking up in the morning. I only sit in my apartment on special circumstances, my cat has to be okay with the dog. In your home I follow all rules and basic etiquette when in someone else’s space.

This was my first time using Sierra as a dog sitter. I was in a bind after a scheduling misunderstanding with another dog sitter. Sierra came through and saved the day! Sierra always promptly responded to my texts and sent me updates. She took good care of Dewey and left me house clean and tidy. Sierra spent an excellent amount of time at my house. Would highly recommend!

About: I’ve always had a love for all animals it doesn’t matter what animal they are. When I was 13 I was put in foster care and my first home was at a horse farm and I absolutely loved it grooming,feeding, and riding the horses. My chores were to walk the dogs, feed the dogs, bath the dogs, and also groom the dogs. I love and enjoy the company of my furry friends. All animals are welcome to stay with me and get the same love and care that they get at home. I’m also willing to travel however far away you are. I also really like it if I have a list of routines that your animal does so I can keep them on schedule. If you have one.

About: I have been pet sitting for 5 years and my friends, family and neighbors all have trusted me to take care of their pets for years. I have experience in basic obedience training with young dogs. I have trained my 2 dogs and have done some work with other puppies. I have experience with administrating medicine to senior animals. I also have experience with reptiles, I used to be a pet keeper at a pet store and picked up many useful skills during that time. I am currently working part time. Shifts are about 4 to 7 hours long but only 3 days a week. Daily walks are no problem, I can fit that into my daily schedule. I usually like to discuss with the clients that have booked with me about my schedule for that week. I usually do not house pets in my home due to the fact that we have many animals and things can get difficult. In a client's home I usually follow the instructions that I am provided for the pets diet and routine. I love playing and spending time with all my clients animals!

I cannot say enough good things about Jimmy. From start to finish, he went above and beyond in every possible way. Before even dog sitting, he took the time to meet my dogs and my cat, which immediately made me feel comfortable and confident leaving my pets in his care. While I was away, Jimmy was incredibly communicative and kind. He sent daily photos and updates, which truly put my mind at ease and showed how attentive and loving he was with my pets. It was clear they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When I returned home, I was honestly blown away. Not only were my pets perfectly taken care of, but my house was spotless. He cleaned the house, did the dishes, and even made my bed — something I never expected and appreciated more than I can say. Jimmy is trustworthy, thoughtful, and genuinely cares. We will 100% be using him again in the future, and I wouldn’t want anyone else watching my pets besides him. If you’re considering Jimmy as a sitter, don’t hesitate — he is truly one of a kind.

Jimmy took care of our elderly, special-needs dog and 4 chickens during his stay at our home. Our dog developed an eye infection right before we left, requiring additional medication and treatment twice a day on top of her regular medications. I was very concerned about leaving her, but Jimmy handled all the extra tasks, reaching out to make sure he was providing her medications as prescribed. He communicated regularly and sent photos as her condition improved, and I was greatly reassured. We're so grateful to him for taking such good care of her.

Jimmy was great! Stayed at our house while we was gone on vacation for a week. Took very well care of both of our dogs and also took care of our mums and other plants. House was clean and very well taken care of as well. I would highly recommend him. We will be considering again in December when we leave again for a week. Oh and he sent pictures and communicated everyday with us.

Courtlin did a great job with our dog and two cats! She was responsive and professional and we were completely at ease with her taking care of our pets while we were away from home. We would absolutely work with her again! Very happy with the experience.
