House Sitting in Woolsey

“Ella is an incredible Pet Sitter! She is conscientious, attentive, and really, really good with animals. She was very responsive to all of my texts. My dog was recovering from surgery and she administered all medications and was careful with stairs, running, and jumping. I enjoyed my vacation because I didn’t have to worry about the care of my pet while I was gone. Thank you, Ella for a great job!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for multiple pets in a home setting. My mom has two dogs that I regularly help care for tasks including feeding, walking, and making sure they get plenty of attention and exercise. I’ve also pet sat for my sister’s dog, one of my mom’s dogs, and a friend’s dog all at the same time, so I’m comfortable managing multiple pets with different personalities and needs. This experience has helped me stay organized, patient, and attentive to each pet’s routine and behavior. In addition to dogs, I’ve cared for other pets such as a lizard and fish, so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals and their specific care needs. I’m also happy to help with small tasks like watering plants while clients are away. I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, happy, and on their normal schedule. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. I’m currently a full-time college student with a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to provide pet care during weekdays, weekends, and varying times of day as needed. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment in every pet sitting experience. Since I care for pets in their own home, I make sure to respect your space and maintain your pet’s normal routine so they feel secure and stress-free while you’re away. During walks, your pet’s safety is my top priority. I always use secure leashing, stay aware of our surroundings, and avoid unsafe situations such as busy roads or unfamiliar dogs. I take the time to understand each pet’s behavior and comfort level to ensure safe, enjoyable walks.

About: I’ve been doing pet/house sitting and dog walking since I was young for family and friends. I’ve always been very passionate about animals and I’ve worked with all ages from puppies to kittens to puppers on their last leg. I’m very patient and understanding with senior dogs and I have a bit of experience in training from taking my own dog to classes! I have a part time job, usually only working afternoons a few times a week. Looking for another job that I’ll love and that’s why I’m starting Rover!! I’ve got plenty of time on my hands and with your pets is how i’d love to spend it!! If needed I have a friendly pup and dog friendly cat at home if needed but I’m willing to stay in your home or just check in as needed, sending photos and updates to ensure your pets safety and security! Making sure they’re walked, fed and most importantly loved!!!

“I have been nervous for a while to use rover for my two kitties and Allison coming and staying at my house showed me why I did not need to be worried! Allison loved and cared for my cats so much! She gave them their daily medicines with food, worked with my automatic litter boxes, and most importantly played and loved on them so much! She was very very communicative and responsive and also sent me so many cute pictures! I always miss my cats so much when I’m gone so this helped me a lot! I also frequently asked how things were going and Allison was very responsive which helped reassure me! She also left my home neat and tidy how it was left for her which was nice to come home to! Allison rocks and I am so appreciative to have someone so kind and thoughtful taking care of my pets! It’s going to make leaving them to go out of town a little easier :) thank you so much Allison!!!!”

About: I have had all different types of animals since I was a kid. For the past several years I have spent time fostering cats and dogs as well as adopting my own dog, (who is blind), Willow! I currently have a work from home job that allows for a flexible schedule and availability that can fit the needs of you and your animals! They will be given attention throughout the day and walked as needed. I am home all day to monitor the animal(s) and I have toys, crates of different sizes and gates if they are ever needed. Local to several nature trails and dog parks as well as many dog-friendly establishments that I frequent in warmer weather!

“Excellent communication and assistance taking care of the house while a storm came through. My dog was well taken care of:)”

“Chae did an outstanding job watching my dog in my home. She was kind and thoughtful, and followed my directions on the RX needs of my pet. I would def have Chae back in my home to watch my doggie for a few days or just having her stop by to let my dog out for a few mins. Very happy to have found Chae here.”

“We are grateful to find Rebecca to watch Murphy, our English lab. Murph can be a bit of a diva, he demands a lot of attention and can be difficult to walk sometimes. He requires a lot of patience! Rebecca is great, she is very responsible and I trust her with my beloved pup. I appreciate the updates she gave and the level of care she provided. We will definitely be seeking Rebeccas’ services again soon!”

“I don't know where to begin - Jasper was a phenomenal sitter for my pup, Hershey. Jasper made time to meet Hershey beforehand her sitting days to ensure that each of us would be comfortable with the arrangement. Over the course of the week I was away, Jasper made sure to keep me updated about everything that was happening with Hershey by sending messages, and pictures throughout the day everyday. I appreciated Jasper’w positive attitude, patience, and willingness to work with Hershey through her anxiety and anxiousness from being in a new environment and around a new person. There is no doubt in my mind that Hershey was well taken care of. Jasper is the perfect sitter if you're looking for someone who is going to spend time with your dog, give them attention, send you updates/communicate, and be flexible and willing to work with you and your schedule as well as emergencies that may arise. I highly recommend him and will definitely book with him again! - Tynesha (Hershey's Mommy)”

“Beth was such an amazing pet sitter! She was very friendly, attentive, communicative, sent us lots of pictures and overall just went above and beyond in taking care of our pets and house while we were away. It was a huge peace of mind knowing our beasties were in such great hands. Would highly recommend her!”

“Camille was so sweet with my puppy Remy:) she took such great care of her while I was gone on extended leave. I didn’t have to worry about Remy at all while I was away. Highly recommend her to others looking for pet sitting”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes and have 6 years of experience making sure pets stay happy and healthy while their owners are away. I have a ton of energy for long walks, park trips, and playing fetch for high-energy dogs, but I also can be calm and relaxed for senior dogs. Because I study at home, my schedule is very flexible, which is perfect for house-sitting! I can spend the majority of my day at your home, ensuring your pet is never left alone for long periods. I’m available for overnight stays during the week and on weekends, and I make it a priority to stick to your pet's specific walking and feeding routine so their day feels totally normal while you're away. I take the responsibility of staying in your home very seriously. I am extremely diligent about home security—always double-checking that doors and windows are locked and that your pet is secure before I step out. I pride myself on leaving your home exactly as I found it (or cleaner!). I’m also a very frequent communicator; I love sending daily photo updates and quick 'check-ins' so you never have to wonder how things are going.

“Elizabeth stayed for two full weeks at our house taking care of all the pets, and even the plants. It was SO nice leaving without needed to do anything or stressing the animals with a different environment or prolonged loneliness while we were gone and returning with everyone and everything still in its place happy and healthy.”

Elizabeth M.

“Deb took excellent care of our dog! She also took the time to send me updates with pictures while we were away. We have already booked her for future trips!”

About: Nice to meet you! I’m a college student at JMU and have taken care of different animals all my life, and often get asked by family and friends to pet sit-caring from animals as small as hamsters to larger dogs like german shepherds. I am very used to walking large dogs, as I have grown up with german shepherds all my life, and I am very used to taking care of animals with disabilities or special dietary needs. For example, my childhood dog had a pancreatic disorder where I fed her a special diet and am accustomed to carefully following directions and making sure everyone is safe and healthy. I absolutely love cats as well, I have a cat named Moss who is very very spoiled and loved. I am a very clean and responsible person who can be trusted to watch over your loved one and home. 🩵I am offering discounted rates for clients looking for daily recurring dog walks. (For example: 1 walk a day five days a week, but can be more than 1 ofcourse depending on your needs) I understand the importance of dogs getting their daily exercise in and want to be helpful for someone who’s understandably on the fence about scheduling something that can be a costly service. Please feel free to message me about getting this set up if you’re interested, I want to help out anyone I can.🩵 Some things that will be firmly and vehemently followed in my care: -Doors will be verified locked every time I leave, I understand how important it is to keep the home secure and your pet safe. -Your pet will NOT be lost under my care (I have seen the horror stories as well and can’t even fully fathom how awful that would be to experience) -I will follow housekeeping tasks requested by the home owner -I will strictly follow both household and pet care guidelines instructed by the owner. Thank you so much for your time! 🩵 I am a college student home for the summer so I am very available, please don’t hesitate in reaching out so we can coordinate a schedule! :) I will care for the pets and home with the upmost amount of care and respect. Im very concerned about making sure the pet is comfortable and safe at all times, and keeping the home very clean. I understand how stressful it can be to trust someone to take care of your loved ones and home, and I want to reassure you that I am very responsible, attentive, and communicative throughout the entire process. I will follow any specific instructions you provide and am happy to give regular updates, whether that’s photos, messages, or calls, to give you peace of mind while you’re away. Your pets will be treated like family, and your home will be left just as you found it. I'm here to make your time away as smooth and stress free as possible for both you and your pets. :)

“From the initial meet and greet to the actual house/pet sitting, Dominick was fantastic. He maintained great communication with us throughout and made us feel at ease using Rover.com for the first time. He was professional and courteous and we wouldn't hesitate to use Dominick's services in the future!”

“Latasha was fantastic with our cat, dog, and Guinea pig! Our critters took to her very quickly and Latasha gave us regular updates. We will absolutely ask her to care for our fur family in the future because we know they’ll be well cared for!”
