About: I am reliable, flexible, and willing to accommodate all of your pet’s needs. I am available to provide all the love, time, and attention that you would ever wish for your pet and I promise to treat your pet like family! I have had cats & dogs my entire life. Having pets of my own, I know how I would like my pets to be pampered when I am away. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds! I love cats too and don’t mind tending to their needs as well! I promise to spend quality time with your pet when I am with them and give them all the play time attention they need! My dog is a 4 year old border collie black lab mix and she enjoys playing fetch and hiking! My cat is a 8 year old bengal and he loves being king of the house, drinking from the tub, & hiking. Mon-Fri I work from home with a very flexible schedule desk job. It would be easy for me to check in on your pet. On weekends I am usually free (spending time with my young family) and fully committed to Rover clients. I have 3 young children in my home. Weekends I am completely free to work with Rover clients. Mon-Fri I work from home with flexible hours so I can care for pets easily. At my home I have a large yard and a 4 year old dog playmate. The cat does his own thing. At your home I am fully committed to providing the care I would expect of someone watching my fur kids. I know sometimes the extra love/playtime can go a long way.

We absolutely loved having Madeline watch our two pups while we were on vacation! I am guilty of leaving too many instructions sometimes, and she made me feel at ease before and during our time away. She also cleaned the house, washed all linens, and left the house in perfect shape. We’d be honored to have her as a sitter again!

About: I have worked at a dog boarding facility in the past, as well as pet sitting! I have experience giving medication and with special diets. I am comfortable with younger pets up to senior pets! I am responsible and responsive! I currently have a full time job Monday-Thursday, so I am looking for pet care work Friday-Sunday! There is an option to provide morning walks every day of the week. I will be very respectful of your home and space while caring for your pet. I don’t offer pet care in my home, because I have a cat.

About: I grew up taking care of pets and showed my poodle in 4H giving me hands-on training experience. I love dog walking for extended time, and sitting your fur baby’s overnight! I currently work for the post office as a real carrier and my schedule is varying every week, mostly part-time so I can be accessible for afternoon, evenings and overnight I’m happy to drive the distance to your home to provide walking or outside play with your pet. Potty breaks while you’re away at work or overnight sitting while you’re on vacation is my thing too!

About: Growing up I lived on a farm. I had pigs, chickens, rabbits, ducks, dogs and cats. I have always had a love for animals of any kind. I’m currently a stay at home mom. With that being said I would be able to take care of your pet at any hour through out the day. I have a fenced in yard at my house because I have 2 dogs of my own. If I were to come to your house to take care of your dog, I would be sure to take the dog out on a leash so that the dog doesn’t run off.

Vada was awesome! My dog can be very anxious and I always worry about him but Vada communicated so well with me and it was my first trip not worrying the entire time. I am so thankful! She spent so much time with him and kept him very happy!

About: I have a few years of experience house-sitting for dogs. During these visits, I take the dogs on walks, make sure they are fed, play with them, and provide companionship. I also am comfortable spending the night to be there for the dog at all hours. Most recently, I was a volunteer dog walker for Indy Humane, and have experience with all breeds and sizes of dogs. This is a summer job for me so I am extremely flexible! I can work at any hour and any day of the week except Sundays, but will make exceptions for multiple night stays. I care for dogs by keeping them on a leash when there is not a fenced in space. I also make sure they get adequate exercise and love while their owners are away.

Valerie was great with our babies! It gave us such peace of mind knowing she was there with them and they were not kenneled or boarded for the weekend, but instead at home, in their own surroundings. I believe it made us being away so much easier for them! We'd definitely recommend and we'll definitely bring her back!

About: What sets me apart as a pet caregiver is my hands-on experience with training and caring for my own dogs. As a proud owner of a Pitbull and a Great Dane, I understand the unique needs of different breeds and how to create a comfortable, safe, and stimulating environment for them. My passion for animals goes beyond just feeding and walking – I’m dedicated to ensuring your pet feels loved and cared for while you’re away, and I have the skills to provide extra support for pets who might need it. Whether it’s basic obedience or more specialized attention, I bring a personalized approach that makes sure your pet is treated like family. As a student, I’ve structured my schedule to allow flexibility when it comes to pet care. I can easily accommodate pet boarding any day of the week, or stay at your home to ensure your pet receives the attention and companionship they need while you’re away. I understand how important it is to have a reliable and caring person looking after your pet, so I make sure to prioritize their needs while balancing my studies. Whether it’s a few hours or several days, I’m here to offer consistent, loving care when it’s needed most. I provide loving, hands-on care for pets both in my own home and in yours. As someone who truly loves spending time with dogs, I make sure they feel right at home by playing with them, cuddling, and offering lots of affection. I’m happy to give them a bath if needed and take them out regularly for potty breaks, making sure they stay comfortable and well-cared for. Whether it’s keeping them entertained or providing some quiet time, I tailor my care to each pet’s personality and needs, ensuring they feel safe and loved while you’re away.
