Thank you for your interest in Over and Out Petsitting.
I hope all is well with you and yours.
I want petsitting and dog walking to always be a good, stress-free, happy experience for me and the pet and the pet owner.
Hi, I’m Robin Grossman.
I'm Over and Out Petsitting. It's just me.
I'm a private, in-home petsitter, overnight petsitter, and dog walker with many long-time clients, since 2004. My job is to keep the dog or cat's routine the same, so there is no stress for either the pet or the client or me and that makes everyone happy.
I’m insured and bonded and I operate by the Golden Rule: I treat your pets and home exactly as I’d want mine treated.
The key is my FREE HOUR CONSULTATION, which includes a dog walk. It's an opportunity for me to get all the pet's details, habits, triggers, routines, and issues. It’s also a vibe-check. In 20+ years, I’ve turned down only 3 jobs due to behavioral red flags. If a dog isn’t fully comfortable with me, I won’t force a match. I'm not a dog trainer. I prefer no stress, no mess. I'm not a dog trainer, but I will reinforce commands the dog already knows.
Private Walks Only
No pack walking, no shortcuts. Walks are tailored to your dog’s pace, style, and needs.
Visit Photos = Real-Time Assurance
Every visit starts and ends with a photo timestamp. I love capturing animals in their natural, goofy, adorable glory and I share those shots freely. Clients are asked to credit the photos to me when sharing. Some clients even order mugs, socks, or shower curtains featuring my photos. If it’s a face you love, why not see it everywhere?
Going the Extra Mile(s)
I’ve FEDEX passports to clients. Carried a 35 lb. beagle outside multiple times a night. Shown up at 4 A.M. at the client's request, who was nervous about leaving his dogs for 5 A.M. flight. My clients know they can count on me and I clean up after myself, too. (Just don’t ask me to make a bed. We all have a kryptonite.)
PHOTOS are my Time Stamp
All visits start with a photo marking the time and the visit ends at the sheduled time and you get plenty of photos in between. I’ve also Facetimed with my clients, so they can see their furry loved ones or to discuss a concerning health issue in real time. My clients love me because I take amazing pictures and videos of their pets and the emailed/texted photos are an extra assurance that I am there looking after their loved ones when I say I am.

VACATION PETSITTING: $115
This is multi-day or multi-week petsitting and your home becomes my home base. I bring my own food.
$80 overnight plus $35 dollars for the rest of the day as I will likely have other clients and I don't want to spend time figuring out how long I'm at your home to charge you for time spent. This rate is simple and stress-free and you come out way ahead, getting more than you can pay my $35 hourly rate.
Stress-Free is Non-Negotiable
I recently turned down a booking after a long consultation revealed a dog's bed-guarding, food-guarding behavior. The clients were kind, but I recognized it wasn't a safe or comfortable match, especially for an overnight petsit. I believe in not pushing through red flags. My goal is always to create a positive, peaceful experience for everyone involved, especially the pet.
Bonus Perks:
Lots of photos and updates
Facetime check-ins available
Print-on-demand keepsakes from my pet photography (client-approved and credited)
Discounts for regular and long-term bookings
Let’s meet. Let’s walk. Let’s see if we’re a good fit.
And the hour consultation is free.
? Over and Out,
Robin Grossman
