About: I am a friend to all dogs and cats! I have had pets all my life and love taking care of fur babies. I work from home and am always available for a drop in, daycare, and especially a home for the holidays. I have a friendly small dog and aloof cat in my home . My home has a fenced in yard with plenty of grass for potty breaks. I am also experienced with giving medicine in case your little one has any conditions which require said service. Whether it's going for a long walk around the neighborhood or taking a trip to the dog park, I promise your pets will be happy and safe with me! I work from home as I mentioned so I am available for all of my services anytime. I take my work phone with me so if I need to stop by during business hours, it is perfectly fine! I care for every animal by giving them love and attention. I am the kind of person who enjoys spending time with animals so whether they’re in my home or I go to your home I always enjoy spending quality time with them and making sure they know they are safe and well cared for.
About: I grew up on a farm with multiple dogs and cats, as well as your typical farm animals like horses, cows, pics, sheep etc. I especially love dogs and helped to train our dogs on the farm, as well as my current little Dachshund Obi who is the sweetest little boy. My most recent elderly dog sitting was a 3-week in-home visit that required a lot of physical assistance, as well as administering medications. I also find joy in taking care of animals and making both them and their owners comfortable. I'm a retired circus performer that currently directs, choreographs and teaches. Because this is part-time work, I have lots of free time to be available for your pets. When I'm in town, I'm available almost any day of the week and can easily work around my part-time work. I'm currently offering in-home visits, dog walking, and overnight care in your home. I always make sure to proactively communicate with my clients so that I'm fully informed as to how to make your pet to still feel at home, even with you away. Making sure they're healthy, happy and comfortable are my main concerns.

“Patricia is the best! She is so sweet and caring for our girl, Penny, and is willing to adapt and shift her schedule to help us with all of our last-minute work schedule changes. She is a life saver in helping us care for Penny!”

About: I have grown up with animals and taken care of my friends and family's pets for years. I can walk, feed and play with your dog or cat! I can be available in the mornings and evenings on weekdays and nearly anytime on weekends, I am flexible with hours! Depending on the day, I can also do check-ins during the lunch hour (midday). I will take your dog for a walk, feed and play with your animal. I will make sure everything is clean and locked up when I leave your home.
“Sarah is awesome! Sarah is thorough and detailed and put a lot of care into taking care of our dog. She’s trustworthy and follows up everything she says with actions. Sarah is also a great person to meet and get to know so hire her 😁”


“She walked my dog Sophie for more than a year - AMAZING!!!!! I would have been so lost without her. Dependable and loving to my Sophie. Couldn’t recommend her more 😊”

“Coda absolutely adores Jennifer. I saw it first hand when I was home due to an illness and she came to walk Coda when I am usually in class. It was heartwarming to see.”

“I was looking for someone nearby to check in on and walk my pup, and I’m so glad Kayla was available. She was always on time, kept me updated, and took great care of Franky. Thanks again!”

“Delena is great with Koda and Colson. They had an instant connection. She puts on their leash and is off on their walk. They already know that she is there to take them out. Will continue to work with her.”

About: For dog walking: If your dog pulls during walks, I have the patience to correct it! For cat boarding: I have 2 happy kittens who are provided with wet & dry food, enrichment treats, interactive playtime, running water, corrugated scratchers, grooming, a clean litter box, and lots of cuddles! I work 3 days a week and I go the gym at least 4 days a week. I am available for dog walking services on my days off and I am available for cat boarding 7 days a week. If you have more than 1 dog or cat per household in need of my services please message me and I’m willing to accommodate! I live in an apartment and I have 2 kittens about 6 weeks old. They love to play and are total lap kitties! I have lots of battery operated cat toys, your typical cat toys, a clean water fountain, plenty of clean food bowls, a donut for hiding and 2 cat trees.
“Deja took excellent care of my pup and always gave me report of her daily walks. I would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and responsible walker!”
About: I have done volunteer work at shelters and have done full time sitting and walking for 11 years as a full-time job. I have walked and sat for all types of dogs, everything from Dachshunds to Australian Shepards, Basset Hounds to Labs, all types of Terriers to Bernedoodles. I have excellent references and love the companionship of dogs and other animals. I began in New York and now am in Albuquerque. My full time job is pet care; this is what I do!!. I began by volunteering and started my own walking and sitting service. It's great. Now I want to be part of the Rover team. I enjoy staying at peoples houses, but also board. I only board small dogs or medium sized dogs that are not the breed that will go after guinea pigs!!! I do from 1-14 days, as far as boarding and sitting goes. I keep an animal comfortable, provide companionship, exercise and a lot of attention, as this is my full time job. I love to walk them and do whatever the client requests.
“Adrienne is awesome! She genuinely cares for your dog as if it’s her own. I have been using her for the last month and will continue to do so! Thanks for everything:)”

About: I’ve been working in a kennel for about 2 years now and I absolutely enjoy getting to work with dogs and cats all day long. It really brings me a lot of joy when I get to care for animals. I am currently working part time at a doggy daycare and I am going to school but have plenty of time to care for pups! Making sure the pup feels safe and comfortable is definitely first priority in my eyes. I do always try and be very attentive to the pup

“Sharon is Fabulous! She is friendly, communicative, reliable and knowledgeable. We are so grateful to have her when we need her. She took great care of our fur baby. She is our go to.”

About: I’ve taken care of friends, family and neighbors dogs since I was 11. I love all dogs of all ages and have 2 large dogs of my own. I’m currently finishing up my masters degree and won’t be working all summer so I’ll have lots of availability for walks and drop ins as needed. I have two very friendly dogs but have dog gates and crates space is ever needed or for when I may have to leave home.
