“Pamela was able to stay overnight with my cat on short notice which was great. We had time for a short orientation beforehand and she seemed to pick up quickly on what was needed, including giving pills to Missy. Pamela texted and sent pictures which was appreciated. She was respectful of my home and left it just as I had. Missy seemed to warm up to her easily and even followed Pamela around so that was a comforting to me. I would gladly have Pamela stay at my home with Missy again.”

About: I’m dedicated to giving your furry friends the best care and companionship they deserve! Although my current living arrangement doesn’t allow me to have a dog, I’m the fun ‘puppy aunt’ who loves spending time with my friends’ dogs. I’m passionate about playtime, hikes, and long walks, and I’m always eager to shower dogs with love and attention. My ability to connect with dogs and keep them active and engaged sets me apart, and I bring a warm, caring energy that makes them feel right at home. I have three cats. Through more than one decade of cat care experience, I have learned the importance of play, food routines, and litter box cleanliness. Most of my friends have cats as well; I’m familiar with the process of gently introducing myself to a new feline friend and providing care while their pet-parent is on vacation. I’m typically available all day on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. If you require pet care Wednesday-Saturday, please message me for my availability. I am excited to take care of your beloved furry friend, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I pride myself on creating a routine that helps pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved while their owners are away When caring for pets in the owner’s home, I prioritize creating a comfortable and familiar environment for them. I follow the pet’s usual routine, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing companionship. I ensure their safety and well-being by maintaining a clean and secure space, and I give them plenty of affection and attention. I also keep the owner updated with regular check-ins and photos to ensure peace of mind while they’re away.

“Samantha was a quick study, efficient, kind, and was able to touch my skittish cat at first meeting! I was so worried but she took my worries away and was so happy to get her reassuring words and pic while I was away. I was also happy to learn Sam is a local which provided even more assurance and even though I live a ways out she was willing to travel to me where others I contacted all said I was out of their area. I really liked her and my kitty Jack did as well, straightforward and got the job done. Thanks Sam, you were a life saver!”

About: I’ve had pets all my life. The past 20 or so years I’ve had several cats with special need, hyperthyroidism, kidney disease, diabetic. I can administer medication. I give my diabetic cat two shots a day. Also understand the importance of a special diet to maintain healthiness. Love dogs, can walk, play, check in on them and clean up after… a walk… Can feed and check in on any other types of pets but prefer no reptiles. Weekdays I’m available after 2:30 pm for longer visits. I work from home and could pop in for a quick check in if needed. My work schedule can be pretty flexible. On the weekend I’m available any time. At this time I would not offer pet sitting at my home. Any rules you have in your home I would follow to a “T” Example: indoor pets stay indoor, no pet off leash, if pet parent wants an anti bite harness. I would do what the pet parent wants.

“Sabrina is amazing with animals and all that one could hope for in a pet sitter - communicative, reliable, and trustworthy. She cares very much for your pet's well-being and this comes across in her very detailed reports. We will continue to use Sabrina and will recommend her to our friends.”

About: I have grown up with dogs, raising all of them from puppies (starting at 10 weeks). I also worked for four summers at a dog daycare with dogs of all ages and breeds. At work, I learned how to perform basic grooming procedures, worked with many dietary plans and restrictions, and handled medications. I have also volunteered with shelter dogs and cats with various behaviors and needs. I currently work 4 day weeks, but I have ample free time on my days off I have included in my calendar. Let me know how I can best fit your pet’s needs. I have a dog of my own who is very timid and territorial, so I do not offer services in at my own place. However, I will treat your fur babies with the same love as my own.

About: I’ve taken care of my own pets since I was a kid. Most recently I have had my two nerds for 11 years and 7 years. I spent a few months as a dog bather/groomer until a major surgery. Unfortunately they had to replace me. But, I learned the basics in case your pooch needs a bath or nail trim. I work full time, but not so much that I can’t do overnight stays in your home or give your pups walks and potty breaks. **I’m am certified in pet CPR and first aid.** I can manage just about anything in your home. If your pup is crate trained or has the run of the house, no problem. I can accommodate any situation with care and safety.

About: I can care for a wide variety of animals. Care will include lots of physical and mental stimulation, as well as anything else you’d like! Let me know if your animal(s) needs any additional care such as medication administration or needs to be kept separate from other animals, and I will be more than happy to accommodate your animal’s needs. My dogs will need to come with me for overnight housesitting. There will also be an opportunity to become a private client to avoid the insane Rover fees, so you can save money and I get the full amount that you pay! (Currently, Rover takes 20% of my pay AND charges you even extra!) Just let me know what time works for you and I will do my best to accommodate time you need. I will do my best to be flexible and use effective communication with all my clients. I have 2 dogs, an almost 4 year old cattle dog and a 2 year old golden retriever. I also have 2 cats at home. Let me know in advance if your animal(s) are reactive or aggressive to people or dogs. All dogs will have plenty of training, physical and mental exercise, love, and anything else that they need during the day. They will be treated as if they’re my own whether I’m house sitting at your house or just doing a drop in visit.

About: I have been caring for my own pets for seven years, as well as helping others with their pets. I have three very well behaved dogs of my own! I really enjoy going for walks so bringing a new friend would be awesome! I am a full time student at UCC, and work part time at planet fitness on the weekends. I am almost always available in the evening. I provide my pets with the food and water they need, bathe and groom them regularly, go on walks and to the dog park and they are maintained with their vaccinations. I love animals very much so I also give them lots of love!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I can remember. I currently have 2 cats and a pup. Friends and family have always relied on me to pet sit, including other animals such as goats, donkeys, and chickens. I work Monday-Thursday, but am always available before and after work (before 7am and after 5pm). I am also available to do drop in visits at my lunch break. I am available all day Friday-Sunday. I have a townhome with a wide field that I take my own puppy out to regularly. I crate train my dog, but do not require if for boarding other dogs. I also have two cats, so I ask for no dogs that are aggressive to kitties. If I am dropping in for visits, I treat your home like my own. I will make sure it is in the same state as it started and will give your pets lots of love!

About: I've cared for dogs and other pets for 15 years. I have experience in animal care and training for a variety of both domestic and exotic species. I'm an avid runner and I can keep up with the most active dogs! I know my work schedule about a month in advance so I know ahead of time when I will be available to care for your pet. I can drop in and visit your pet to give them some extra attention and care. I love being outdoors so I would love to take your dog on a walk or even a run if they have some extra energy!

About: I have had dogs and cats as pets throughout most of my life. At a young age it was instilled into my heart that pets are family members. And that is a sentiment I have stuck with my entire life. I have also kept a few fish tanks, too! I work full-time but I am done fairly early, so I will be available Mondays through Thursdays from around 3pm until 830pm, (I could do an overnight stay during the weekdays too if it isn't too far from my home base). Fridays after work through Sundays I am available anytime! I'm down-to-earth and believe communication is key. The best way for me to provide the care, love, and attention your pet requires is for us humans to have open communication. If there is something you request, and I wouldn't be able to provide, I will be up front and let you know. You'd be able to see through me if I said doing Rover is not for the money, HOWEVER, that is not the sole reason! The safety and care of your pet is by far THE most important thing. I believe we can achieve pet-happiness by each of us being up front and honest.

About: I’m a college student who would love to spend my time with some pets, especially because I miss mine at home. I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for about 5-6 years for friends and family. I would care for their pets while they were gone on trips/vacations, or even when they just needed me to check in on their pet during the day. I’ve cared for senior dogs as well as very hyper and active pets. I’m capable of either situation whether it be long walks or very attentive care for an animal. I always have anxiety leaving my pets in others peoples hands and I would love to relieve that stress for someone else! Im currently working full time, 8-9 hour shifts about 4-5 days a week. My shifts are in the morning, the latest I’ll work would be 5-6. I will still have plenty of time in my schedule to check in and spend time with your pets and give them tons of attention and care! If you have any specific requests for your pet just let me know and I would be more than happy to accommodate them into my schedule while pet sitting.
