House Sitting Woodwind

“This was my first time using Mikayla for overnights with my 3 dogs. I came home to well-adjusted Girls and the house was in good order. Will use Mikayla again!”

About: My résumé includes dogs, cats, muddy boots, mystery noises in barns, and convincing animals that the thing they absolutely do not want to do is actually a great idea. I've learned that patience, consistency, and a pocket full of treats or a favorite toy solve most problems. Animals have always been a huge part of my world. On any given day, I might be caring for horses, spending time with my dogs and cats, or helping a nervous animal feel comfortable in a new situation. I understand that every pet is different. Some want a long walk and a game of fetch. Some want a quiet companion who respects their space. Some have very strong opinions about breakfast arriving precisely on time. I have experience caring for animals of all ages, from energetic youngsters to seniors who need a slower pace and a little extra patience. I'm comfortable with large dogs, multi-pet households, and pets with established routines that need to be followed carefully. Friends often describe me as observant and dependable. I pay attention to details, communicate clearly, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal's personality. Whether your pet is an adventure buddy, a professional napper, or a lovable troublemaker, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you're away. As a lifelong animal owner, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I will treat them with the same attention and respect I give my own. I currently have flexible availability most days of the week and can often accommodate pet care requests around my existing animal care responsibilities. Caring for animals is already a part of my daily routine, so I understand the importance of consistency, communication, and showing up when expected. Beginning in August, my availability will shift as I start graduate school, and I will primarily be available on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. I believe in being upfront about scheduling and only accepting bookings that I can fully commit to, so you can count on reliable care and clear communication. Every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to follow it as closely as possible. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets have fresh water, meals (if needed), potty breaks, exercise, and attention tailored to their personality. Some pets want to play, some want belly rubs, and some prefer a quiet companion who respects their space. For walks, I focus on safety, consistency, and making sure your dog gets both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I pay attention to weather conditions, energy levels, and each dog's comfort and confidence. I also keep an eye on the little things. As someone who has cared for animals for many years, I know that changes in appetite, energy, mobility, or behavior can be important. If I notice something unusual, I will communicate it promptly. In a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the household itself. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable and cared for while you're away, and for you to come home to a happy pet and a home just as you left it.

We try to be as prompt as possible when responding to requests.* Please be aware that you may not receive message notifications while your Rover app is open. *Exact visit times may not be guaranteed, although we do our very best to honor them. Please understand that special needs pets must take precedence. It is helpful to include an acceptable range for your appointment visits if your pets have flexibility. Thank you. We have a fence porch where the pups are able to relax, take a sun bath, we put water bowls outside as well and is fresh water and of course we are there with them, we also used this time to brush their fur.

“Hanna agreed to help us out on short notice. She was kind, compassionate and took care of our pups. They seemed to enjoy her and will definitely be booking her again!”

“Alex was absolutely wonderful with Milo! She was so reliable, communicative, and took such great care of him while we were away! She sent us updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was happy, comfortable, and getting plenty of love and attention. She also took great care of our house and left everything exactly as we left it. She even went above and beyond and stripped the bed she slept in while she was here and put it in the washer for us🥹 she is so sweet! When we got home, Milo was clearly very happy and well taken care of! We felt completely comfortable having Alex stay with him and would love to have her watch him again.”

“Francois was amazing! He stayed at our home while we were out of town for a wedding and took great care of our two dogs and two cats. He sent pictures every day and it was very obvious they loved him. He even agreed to check-in on our cats over the holidays, even though we asked last minute. I highly recommend Francois to anyone who needs pet care!”

“It was a pleasure to work with Christine. This was my first time using Rover and I was so nervous.. Christine made the process easy and comfortable. Typically I bring Apollo with me where ever I go but let’s face it, that can be a lot of extra work. I needed to leave out of town unexpectedly and it was so nice to know Apollo was home in his own environment. Extra huge perk coming home to my house looking clean! Thanks Christine!”

About: Hello my name is Hannah ! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more . My experience in pet care is from having my own animals and caring for family and friends . My boyfriend and I only have one dog ; she is a Basset Hound her name is Dolly . I will always make sure to treat your furry friends with nothing but love and attention when in my care. I work full time 9/5 but am available in the morning and after work and of course on the weekends. If needed and close enough I can check in on my lunch . I aim to keep your dog on their normal routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of love—while also keeping your home tidy and secure why you are away.

“Lee took excellent care of our pets and home for a week! We have an elderly lab, older cat, young cat, and a bearded dragon. His calm and caring presence helped our pets feel at ease in our absence. The communication was consistent and timely. We definitely would select him again for housesitting and pet care! He even took our trash down on trash day and vacuumed without being asked to do it.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Sarah! She took great care of our Charlie and kept us updated with photos and messages while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“Kerstin was a wonderful house sitter for our goldendoodle and cat. We used her for the week of thanksgiving while we were out of the country and felt that our animals and home were in great hands! She sends daily updates with photos as well! We arrived from a long trip and travels to a very clean home and gifts for our son. What a pleasure. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”
