“Chyler did a great job watching Ellie! Super responsive and sent videos throughout my entire trip to give me peace of mind that my dog was well cared for! Thank you Chyler!”
About: I have more than thirty years experience caring for dogs and cats. I’ve helped family and friends feel comfortable leaving their pets home while on vacation or in the hospital. I have a full time job M-F. While caring for your pet, I may be away for 9 hours during the day. The weekends are much more flexible. Your pet is most comfortable in their own environment. I believe your pet deserves love, play, and comfort while you’re away. That why my mission is simple: making tails happy!
“Sarah was fantastic and cared for our 3 dogs for a long weekend. This was our first time using her and we will absolutely seek her out again. Upon meeting her prior to our trip, we immediately felt at ease and comfortable with her staying in our home and caring for our golden retrievers. She is an animal lover, and it shows.”
About: My name is Shania, I’ve been around all animals all my life and from when I was very little I knew in my heart I wanted to take care of them. I have been a veterinary technician for 5 1/2 years now. I graduated with my associates in veterinary science in 2022. Animals have always had a special place in my heart, and caring for them isn’t just something I do—it’s who I am. It has never been a job, but a calling. I’ve worked with pets of all kinds, from the playful to the shy, the healthy to those with special medical needs. That experience has taught me how to care with both skill and compassion. I started my journey with Rover as a way to continue doing what I love while also being present to raise my daughter. This opportunity allows me to give your pets the same kind of love, attention, and care I give my own family—because that’s exactly what they deserve. With me, your pet will be treated like one of my own, whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or administering medications. I look forward to welcoming your furry loved one into my care! I have four animals of my own. I have one cat and three dogs two of my dogs are littermates. I have a huge heart and I’m willing to add your pet to it. I’ve worked in veterinary medicine for 5 1/2 years but took time off to be a stay at home mom and raise my 6 month old daughter. I miss seeing my clients and their pets on the daily! This allows me to continue doing what I love but also being able to raise my daughter. I am free all day every day so shoot me a message let’s chat and get your babies taken care of! Safety is my biggest priority. I promise to give your pet all that they need, including a good, and positive experience. All animals, all shapes, ages and sizes welcomed ❤️ it doesn’t matter if your pet is spayed or neutered I accept them all!
“Jennifer was very kind to watch Mamba with less than a week's notice, which I really appreciated! Mamba also had a last-minute vet visit and Jennifer was still willing to watch her with a cone, and some new medication to administer that I had not planned on. Everything went smoothly! Loved getting pictures as well!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats (and fish) since I was a toddler! I love reptiles and birds as well. I currently have two dogs and have provided pet care for over 10 years. My husband just retired 20 years from the Air Force so I am brand new to the area and excited for new clients! I’m primarily a stay at home mom. I work part time and make my own hours so I’m very flexible for availability! This helps me take on last minute clients as well. My home is unavailable for care since one of my dogs is a senior pup that isn’t social. However, I am happy to take care of your pets in your home!
“Marissa was amazing! I was gone on a work trip and we were able to work out the details in a very quick manner. I loved all the updates through out the day and it gave me piece of mind knowing my dog was doing great! Will definitely have her out again”
“Claire was super nice and responsible. I received updates and when I got home everything was in order and my dog was safe and happy. I could tell that Claire and Otis bonded and he was happy we were home and a little sad to see her go.”
About: I have 4 years of dog sitting/walking experience, and I have cared for dogs and cats as long as I can remember. From a young age, I knew I had a passion for taking care of animals.
