House Sitting Woodsmoke

“Taylor did an amazing job with our dog Ellie Mae. Ellie is very afraid of fireworks and thunder. While we were away we had several thunderstorms and Taylor made sure to take extra special care of Ellie. She kept us updated daily with photos of a happy dog. I would highly recommend Taylor to anyone that is using Rover to find an excellent in home dog sitter. We will definitely be using her in our future needs.”

“Karla took amazing care of our dogs once again. She’s punctual, communicative, and kind. Karla respects our space and loves our dogs. She sends awesome photos and goes above and beyond, even bringing in packages. 10/10 wonderful sitter!”

“Another great experience with Susan. She took such thoughtful care of Homer, especially during the thunderstorm. Susan also treats our home with care while she is here. We appreciate her so much!”

About: As an experienced dog & house rabbit owner and credentialed veterinary technician (FL), I understand that every pet and species needs vary. I am excited to work you as a pet parent to find out what works for you and your pets individual needs. Your dog will be with someone consistently thru their stay with potty breaks, walks, cuddles, and playtime as they enjoy. My partner works from home and my time is spent caring for dogs, tending our garden, and painting pet portrait commissions. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog (yellow lab) that can keep your dog company or be kept separate if needed. We can easily accommodate a crate in quiet spaces or more central based on what your pet is used to. My goal is to make my home feel as familiar as their own. I do require all dogs staying in my home to, at minimum, be up-to-date on their Rabies vaccination and be on flea prevention (I’m happy to provide resources where these are accessible if needed). Other vaccines and parasite preventions are highly recommended. Beginning August 2026: all dogs will be also required to have an up-to-date Distemper / Parvo (DAPP) vaccination as well.

“Damien was very kind to our dogs while we were away. I would definitely rebook with him. He even offered to grab our mail while we were gone.”

“Ash was so great with our dogs and cat! This was my first time using Rover for pet sitting so I was a little nervous about leaving them, but I quickly realized they were in great hands with Ash. She made sure to give them so much love and attention while we were away and I think they made a new best friend!”

About: I’ve taken care of two large dogs and one mini poodle. I have experience in bathing, feeding and and providing medical care. I live next to Astoria park and can provide the necessary stimuli to make sure your pup is entertained and happy😁 I have a 2 year old poodle that needs daily allergy medication. I provide special care for her and monitor her very closely. I also administer shots for allergy related issues. I treat my pets as I would my own child. I understand that pets are part of the family and I promise to treat them as such. I have a pup of my own and my wife and I love her dearly. I promise i will treat your pet as if he/she were my own because I know how important they are to you and you’re family.

“We had a great experience with Brittney. She stayed at our home with our three pets and took excellent care of all of them. One dog is very shy and timid, and one dog has just had surgery. Brittney handled all the medications and kept me updated on all pets. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring person to look after their pets.”

“I had such a great experience! From the moment we met, she was kind, reliable, and clearly cared so much about our dogs. She kept me updated with photos and messages, followed our dogs’ routine, and made sure they felt comfortable and loved while I was away. We came home to happy, well cared for pups and a clean home, which gave us so much peace of mind. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone”

About: I have 3 cats at home with my wife. We spoil them with everything they need to live a fun and adventurous feline life and we wanna do the same for yours. While I don't have any kind of professional background with pet care, I can make up for it with a lifelong history of loving and caring for my own. Pets are more than just animals but a part of a family. I can guarantee your pet will feel the same warmth and love I've given to mine. Even at odd hours I will be available. I'm currently part time so I have plenty of time to check in or watch your dog in the the day. I'm also available at night. I have a big backyard so I spend a lot of time with pets there. There is plenty of room to run around and play.

About: ⭐️Meet & Great with new clients ⭐️Extra cuddles and love ⭐️ Detailed updates with photos/videos Hi! I’m Mackenzie 💜 your pet’s new favorite sitter and probably their future bestie. I’m a huge animal lover, especially dogs. Growing up with dachshunds, I fully understand that every pet has their own unique and fun personality, and I’d love to see it during my time with them. I don’t just “watch” pets - I connect with them. Whether your pet has high energy, is shy, curious, or a little sassy, I take the time to learn their personality so they feel safe, comfortable and truly cared for while you’re away. My goal is to make you feel 100% comfortable and for your pets to be happy, cared for, and loved as if they were my own. I work a typical 9-5 with a decent amount of flexibility. Early mornings, mid afternoon and late evenings are the best but with enough notice, everything is flexible. Under my care, your pets will be given all the attention, love, and time they need. Detailed photos/ updates will never be an oversight on my part.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for more than 20 years, including dogs, cats, rabbits, and other beloved pets. For me, pet care is more than feeding and walking, it’s about creating a safe, calm, loving environment where animals feel comfortable, understood, and cared for. As a counselor, I bring a natural understanding of behavior, communication, emotional regulation, and individual needs. I am also a service-dog handler, giving me firsthand experience with the responsibilities, routines, and attentiveness required when caring for working and support animals. What sets me apart is my patience, attentiveness, and ability to meet each pet where they are. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, anxious or sensitive animals, and pets with unique routines or personalities. I take the time to learn what makes each animal feel safe and loved, and I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. Your pet’s well-being, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. ❤️ Pet care fits well into my routine because my schedule is highly flexible. I’m generally available on weekday evenings and weekends, although I usually need advance notice to plan appropriately and provide reliable, attentive care. I communicate clearly about availability and make sure each visit receives the time and attention your pet deserves. I prioritize safety, trust, and clear communication in every pet-care arrangement. I am not offering in-home boarding or pet care in my own home (I’m full-); I provide services such as visits or walks according to the agreed-upon arrangement. Before beginning, I carefully review your pet’s routine, medical or behavioral needs, access instructions, emergency contacts, and household expectations. I respect your privacy and property, follow your instructions closely, and maintain professional boundaries while caring for your pet in your client’s home.

About: For many years I've been the go-to choice for friends and family who needed a responsible and trustworthy pet sitter. Considering my life long love of animals big and small, Rover allows me to help pet owners find someone dependable to help care for their fuzzy friends. Whether caring for big playful dogs, proud wary cats, or even sensitive older pets my top priority is always the peace of mind of the pet parent. I work remotely which allows me to have plenty of freedom to care for pets during most people's work hours. The only weekdays that I'm typically unavailable are Fridays during the Fall season. I keep detailed notes for each client's preferences and instructions so that everything goes as smoothly as possible. My top priority is always the peace of mind of the pet parent so whatever rules and routines you already have in place for your pets will be maintained while I care for them.

“Brianna is wonderful! She took such great care of all our animals. She is very communicative and even tidied up before we returned. I cannot recommend her enough! Thank you!”

About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind for the past 9 years! Prior to dog sitting and walking I helped to breed and show English Bulldogs and Shibas. I have much experience with newborn puppies as well as much aged ones! All around me know how much I absolutely love and adore dogs! It was always a shock I never went into vet tech! I unfortunately don’t currently have the circumstances to own a dog as I am a renter but I LOVE caring for others dogs and getting my dog love through them!! I am very attention detailed and will be sure to keep great attention on your sweet baby ! I currently work part time as a bridal stylist and though I love my job I also love animals and would love to be able to take care of your pet! My schedule is very flexible and because I work part time I am able to make many schedules work! I care for pets mostly in others homes by caring for the need of the pet not only physically but also socially! Most pets need a social aspect to their visit just as much as they need a physical one as well! I have even hand fed animals per the instructions of the owner!

About: Hi! I’m Scarlett, a 30-year-old lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I grew up on a farm where caring for animals was part of my everyday life, teaching me early on that every animal has unique needs and deserves patience, compassion, and reliable care. Today, I have six pets of my own: two senior dogs (one 5 pounds and one 90 pounds), two cats, and two ferrets. This has made me very comfortable handling different temperaments, energy levels, and mobility needs, and I always tailor my care to each pet. I’m experienced with administering medications, including oral meds and injections, and I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions, special diets, and routines. Whether your pet loves walks, playtime, or cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. You can expect regular updates and clear communication while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Monday-Fridays: 6:30am-7:30am / 5:30pm-11:00pm Saturday - Sunday full open availability If you have specific times please feel free to ask. I may be able to accommodate I treat all animals like I would my very own. I have great attention to details depends on each one’s unique quirks. If you have a fenced yard I ensure gates are closed. Leashed before doors open for walks. I’ve handled horses so big dogs are not a problem. If your pets get crated I also ensure it’s properly latched. Im also very used to animal body language and feel comfortable around navigating when some animals dont get along in the same household with each other and on what to do

“Sara did an awesome job caring for our 2 pets. She notified us in advance of her arrivals and was professional in every way.”
