My sometimes anxious blue heeler had never done daycare before, and Savannah and her husband were so great with him! I will definitely reach out to them again if he needs daycare in the future.

Heather has been taking care of my pup, Junie for a few weeks. Between her and her two kids, they make sure my girl is well cared for. I never worry about Junie when she is with Heather. Heather even takes her for walks of an evening and drops her off. Heather truly goes above and beyond for my girl! Highly recommend her.

About: Dogs have always been in my life. I volunteered at Animal Lifeline for 8 years and had a dog daycare of my own for a while. Dogs are everything and I’d be honored to love on yours. I currently work full time but my day ends at 3 pm so I can be that late afternoon or evening potty break or walk. Weekends are definitely doable as well with pre-arranged time and notice. Should your dog(s) stay with me during the day, I have a fenced yard and no carpet in case of oopsies! If you request that I come to your house I am very reliable, responsible and respectful. I can guarantee a boat load of scritches and belly rubs as well as time for “business”.

I was in DSM for a short trip and needed a last minute sitter for my dog Louie and was so lucky to find Kevin had availability to take him for a whole day. I didn’t have time to do a meet and greet, I just trusted the reviews he already had and they are all on point. From start to finish Kevin was responsive, respectful and responsible with me and my dog. I would trust him over and over if I lived in DSM. Highly recommended!

About: Growing up on a family farm, I have had the opportunity to care for many different kinds of animals (dogs, horses, cats, chickens, goats, pigs and cows). I have taken care of family and friends dogs for the last 20 years. I have raised 5 puppies and have shown a few of them in local shows. My kids are 10 and 7 and love taking our dogs for walks, hikes and playing with them in our very large back yard. I am home all summer and my school year schedule varies so I have plenty of time to take your pup on walks and play with them. I have a large fenced back yard and 2 pups friendly pups. I have the ability to take your dog to either a paved or dirt trail for walks or runs. My dogs walk 4 to 5 miles a day but I can definitely make the walk shorter if needed. I have the ability to separate the dogs if needed. I can also crate the dogs. Our dogs love to lounge on our couches.

About: 👋Hello! Thank you for visiting my profile. From the moment I was born, I’ve had a deep and genuine love for animals, especially dogs. While many of my peers spent their school years babysitting, I was happily focused on dog walking and pet sitting. Over the past 15+ years, I’ve gained hands-on experience volunteering at dog kennels and rescues, learning just how important trust, patience, kindness, and authenticity are when caring for animals. I understand that entrusting someone with your beloved pet can feel daunting, but if you choose me, you can rest assured that I’ll not only build a strong connection with your furry family member, but also with you. Reliability, respect, and attention to detail are at the heart of my approach. I follow your care preferences closely and treat every animal as if they were my own, providing love, safety, and companionship. If you’re looking for a dependable, enthusiastic pet sitter with a lifelong passion for dogs, I’d be honored to care for your pup! I have a very flexible remote work schedule, which allows me to provide attentive, reliable care for your pet. Together, we’ll create a personalized care plan based on your preferences, ensuring your pet stays on the exact routine and schedule you want. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are always my top priorities! I own my home and have a large, pet-friendly yard, providing plenty of space for your dog to play and relax. Before any booking, we’ll discuss in detail exactly what you want for your pet’s care, whether it’s sticking to a specific routine, meeting special needs, or just making sure they get all the snuggles and love they deserve. My goal is simple: to keep your pet happy and safe, while giving you complete peace of mind. Snuggles, playtime, and affection are always included!

About: Dog owner for 10+ years. We have a fenced in back yard with close proximity to the trails at Easter Lake for long walks around the lake.

My husband and I work from home full time so we are able to care for a dog at any time during the week or on the weekends. I have a fenced in backyard with 2 dog friendly boxers that will offer your dog company and plenty of play time. The dogs will also get plenty of attention from our dog loving children.

About: We have been pet sitting for friends and colleagues for 2 years so thought why not join Rover and do more! Our clients love my family and we love their pets so it makes perfect sense. I have 4 kids, a small dog and two cats and my small pets just hide if a visiting pet is too much for them otherwise they don't get bothered or bother anyone else, human or pet! I work from home and I have 4 kids who love cats and dogs and love to help out with the dogs that we already provide services for. We are trusted with hideaway keys to homes to let dogs out and we run them in fenced in yards to burn energy. Then we make sure they have food and water and kennel them if applicable before we leave. In our house, visiting pets are watched over by all members of the family. Sometimes we buy them their own special toy to play with. We make sure they eat and get any meds they might need.

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals, my attention to detail, and my experience with all ages—from energetic puppies to senior pets that require gentle care. I’m reliable, communicative, and always prioritize your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine. Whether it’s giving medication, reinforcing training, or just providing companionship, I treat every pet like family. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. I work Monday to Friday during the day, but I’m fully available early mornings, evenings, and all weekend. I ensure that each pet receives the time, attention, and care they need, even outside of my work hours. Caring for animals is a priority and something I genuinely enjoy doing. I care for pets by creating a calm, loving environment in both my home and clients’ homes. I follow their routines closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I provide plenty of affection, monitor behavior and health, and ensure they feel safe, secure, and at ease. Each pet is treated like family.

Shaelea R. LOVES animals! If she sees one in need of care or abandoned, she will take it in. She saw a post of a man living in a car with 11 guinea pigs, needing a home for them, because he couldn't feed them anymore. She went and picked up all 11. She was able to safely rehome a few, she still has the rest, plus a few babies. Shaelea is very patient and caring. She has had a daycare business, in her home, for 9 years. The children and parents love her and feel safe leaving their children with her. Shaelea is very responsible and dependable. I highly recommend her!

Megan does a wonderful job handling other's four legged loved ones. She has over 15 years of experience outside of owning her own pets, from volunteering at a young age at animal shelters to being apart of various rescue organizations today. One attribute that has stood out over time is her natural disposition to sense how an animal is feeling and utilize great, often common sense, instincts on what actions to take to safely handle any situation that maximizes the safety for both her and the animal(s) she is caring for. I wholeheartedly endorse Megan as a walker of all pets. She would do the job safely, beyond standards, and with genuine care.

15 years of experience

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals, my attention to detail, and my experience with all ages—from energetic puppies to senior pets that require gentle care. I’m reliable, communicative, and always prioritize your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine. Whether it’s giving medication, reinforcing training, or just providing companionship, I treat every pet like family. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. I work Monday to Friday during the day, but I’m fully available early mornings, evenings, and all weekend. I ensure that each pet receives the time, attention, and care they need, even outside of my work hours. Caring for animals is a priority and something I genuinely enjoy doing. I care for pets by creating a calm, loving environment in both my home and clients’ homes. I follow their routines closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I provide plenty of affection, monitor behavior and health, and ensure they feel safe, secure, and at ease. Each pet is treated like family.
