About: I grew up with three dogs and trained them to do the basics. I love animals of all sizes, not just dogs. I don’t have much experience with other animals but would love to learn and be as much help as possible! I currently work a full time job however my hours have been cut to part time hours so my availability is pretty open. Unfortunately my job is not a set 9-5 Mon. through Fri. There is a mid sized dog park at my apartment complex however I cannot bring my animal inside my apartment. I can definitely travel to your home and take care of your animal is one long stay or visits. And I also love taking dogs on walks so that is no problem as well.

About: I have a genuine love for animals and take great pride in providing reliable, caring pet-sitting services. Having grown up on a farm, I gained hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, from household pets to livestock. This background has taught me responsibility, patience, and how to care for animals of all kinds. I treat every pet as if it were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I attend school online, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to travel for pet-sitting jobs and even stay overnight when needed, as long as there’s Wi-Fi so I can keep up with my classes. Since I’m currently applying for more jobs, my availability is open and adaptable, making it easy for me to provide consistent, reliable care for pets whenever I’m needed. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routines as closely as possible so the pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide regular feeding, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also take time to clean up after them, whether that’s refreshing litter boxes, wiping paws, or tidying up their spaces. If I’m staying overnight, I make sure the home stays neat and the pets get extra attention and companionship. My goal is always to create a safe, calm, and loving environment while keeping the owner’s home just as they left it.

About: I have worked at a Veterinary Clinic since 2018 and have loved what I do ever since. I’ve worked as a Veterinary Assistant for 2-3 years. I have been watching and taking care of animals ever since I was younger so I’ve dealt with all types of animals, whether they were special needs or just needed a little more attention. If you need care for other species aside from dogs and cats I can care for them as well! I work 4 days a week at around 30ish hours, my significant other is home during the day as he works nights. So he is able to let animals out at our home during the day. I care for all different kinds of pets, however it is needed and requested. If something happens I will know exactly what to do. I do require them to be kenneled overnight at my home for the safety of them and others.

About: I’ve also had guinea pigs and rabbits and birds and goats. I love all animals and am happy to care for them no matter what shape or size. They all deserve love and attention and as long as I have solid instructions then I got it covered and they’ll feel like they’re my own babies. I’m currently unemployed. I’m getting certified to sell insurance and am home. I have two children in pre school and elementary school and the extra money would help a lot in this transitional period. I can happily come to your home and give your animals all the love they need. I’m in an apartment so coming to my home isn’t available currently but I can do check-ins or extended stays at your home depending on what you need.

About: I’ve always had dogs growing up and I had my own for 7 years. I miss him dearly and would love to be able to give part time lovins to others for now until I find another to call my own! I work full time as a mortician from 6a-6p but I have evenings and weekends free and even some day time availability to feed, walk, let out or just love some pups! I do live in an apartment, however they have a fenced in dog area. I’m willing to travel to your house or they’re definitely welcome in mine!

“Sarah was great! She made it over to my place in the middle of a snowstorm and took Apollo on a good long walk around the complex. She was super friendly and great with communication!”

About: I grew up on a farm with 16 horses, cows, dogs, and cats, which gave me solid experience in animal care. I also travel, camp, and hike with my cat, Pumpkin, which has helped me learn to manage various pet needs while on the move. My background includes experience with horses, dogs, and cats, as well as training and handling. I’m skilled in caring for both active and senior pets, providing personalized attention. My adaptability and travel experience make me a reliable choice for pets needing a caring and flexible sitter. I am currently working a scheduled 8-4:30 Monday - Friday schedule, however, I have most Fridays off. I am always available on weekends and can usually schedule nights. I have been using Rover, house-sitting, and pet-sitting for a few years now. I treat any home like I would my own and bring the "leave no trace" mindset wherever I go. I fully respect any customer and pet's home I am in and will clean up any accidents and make sure they are comfortable!

“Hannah always does a great job for my two babies. She is very quick to respond and easy to work with. I’ve used her a few times and continue to! Her experience working at a vet clinic makes me feel more comfortable. She always sends pictures and I know my dogs love when she comes around”

About: My family and I have owned dogs my whole life and raised several liters of puppies, which is where I have grown my love for dogs! I’ve been dog sitting and helping take care of dogs since I was 10 years old and have gained several skills in responsibility and care from this. I love getting to know your dog and making them feel loved and cared for! I am available at most times of the day to care for and walk your dog. I work a part time job that makes my schedule very flexible! I can offer several services of walking your dog and/or dog-sitting your dog. This includes feeding them, letting them out, and providing physical activity for them such as playing or walking!

About: Our family has been taking in foster dogs for the past six months. Before that, we watched dogs for friends and family on an as needed basis. I have 3 children in the house age 13, 9 and 7. Sometimes they are with their dad, so if your dog doesn't do well with children we can still possibly work something out depending on dates. Just let me know. When they are here, they absolutely love to dote on our furry visitors both big and small and are always careful to respect the dog's space if they need alone time. I grew up with dogs in my family as well and my best friend is a vet tech, she's always giving me helpful doggie tips! After fostering for others, we now have our own dog named Taylor Swift who would love some friends to visit! We are very responsible and have experience with a variety of dog breeds and ages. We will also make sure to follow any special instructions necessary for your pet. For overnights we can do crates, dog beds, or let the dog stay in the bedroom depending on your preference. We love to play and always give our furry friends lots of attention and love when they visit. If you have any other questions just let us know. We are a great family with lots of dog experience and references! I'm home full-time save occasional errands. Pets are fed according to any schedule provided but generally our day starts around 9 AM. The kids love to spoil our visitors with play and cuddles. We will follow any instructions left. Pets are fed separately for safety. If your pet does not eat at scheduled times, then a space they can eat will be provided separate from the other dogs and food offered throughout the day. We like to hang out with our visitors just as we do our own dog. They'll come with us on any dog-friendly outings, play outside, and get lots of cuddles! The downstairs and living room area is the most dog friendly with a dog door to the backyard. This is our main hangout spot but the older dogs often opt to lay out on the deck which gets lots of sun, or with the grown ups upstairs.
