About: For over 30 years, I've had the joy of caring for cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. Growing up surrounded by these wonderful companions taught me just how special the bond between a pet and their person is. Today, I’m honored to help others by providing their pets with the same love, attention, and care they’re used to at home. You can count on me to be reliable, trustworthy, and to treat your furry family member like my own! Now enjoying retirement, I am fortunate to have the time and flexibility to dedicate my days to caring for pets who bring so much love and joy into our lives. When caring for pets in their own home, I treat the space and routines with the utmost respect. I make sure your pet(s) feel safe and cared for by sticking closely to their normal schedule and providing plenty of affection, exercise, and companionship. Whether it’s feeding, walking, medication, or just quiet time, I tailor each visit to your pet’s needs and personality. I am also happy to share photo and video updates so you can stay connected with your fur babies.

About: I’m reducing my current job schedule to part time as a mental health therapist in order to engage in my passions. With this in mind, I would love to direct my empathy, patience, and connection towards any animal(s). I currently own 3 cats and would want nothing but the best for them if I were to be away and so I will use this as my guide when keeping care of your pets. I have been around animals most of my life and have taken care of dogs, and cats primarily for family, friends, and strangers throughout my career experience. This is my first time on an app so please feel free to ask any other questions as it is welcomed! I’m currently working part time with a flexible schedule so I would like to say I am very flexible and can work with most schedules at this time. I live by treating others the way you want to be treated, so if I am at someone else’s home, I will be respectful on the space and property. I will be taking care of and treating your animals as if they are mine and will make sure to bring them some comfort while they’re guardian(s) are away!

“Nadia has been great to work with. Very communicative. My dog looks forward to her weekly walks.”

About: My whole life my parents have had dogs so I’ve grown up around dogs since I was an infant, this also means that they’ve had quite a few different puppies over the years and I have helped train them. I am the go to person for all of my friends and family. If they need someone to watch their pets while they’re gone I absolutely love seeing their animals and taking care of them and I treat everyone’s animals as if they’re my own and do the things that I would want others to do for my pets. During the school year, I work as a teaching assistant at an elementary school. This means that my summers are very open and free to watch others pets and give them plenty of love and attention. I care for pets in others homes as if they were my own pet, I will make sure to play with them and feed them and get them outside, but also just cuddle them if they like that and give them the space if they also would prefer that.

About: New to Rover promo code: CHRISS86159 ********I will be out of state 5/17-5/24********** Ask about my multiple pet discount for drop in visits! Additional fee for any visits over 15 miles to accommodate for travel time and gas. Hello everyone! I have been on Rover for a few years now and have experienced alot so far but I am sure that I will still get a surprise here and there! I try to take all surprises with grace and just learn from them! We have: bones, hard yak cheese sticks, frisbee, balls, soft stuffy toys, rope toys, bubble machine, dog pool and pounce sprinkler, lick mats, sniff mats, puzzle toys, we do some arts and crafts (typically on or near holidays), homemade frozen enrichment bowls, if you request a bath for your dog I have multiple deshedding tools. Blankets, crates, extra bowls and diapers if needed. I am investing a lot into my doggy business. I recently made a small indoor gated area that has mats layed down for optimal comfort during indoor play and sleeping. I am in the process of creating an additional fenced in area in my yard that will feature a sand pit for those that love to dig, turf grass to contain the mud and a climbing feature for king of the hill! I can give your dog the patience it may need for basic training along with draining out some of the coopt up energy so they can listen better! Training in wee hours doesnt bother me at all and can even be fun. I have kids that are not rough or overly involved with animals and that also know some basic training. Any medication or special request can also be discussed and accommodated. Any questions just feel free to ask. Thanks for reading and considering me for your fur baby. I currently work from home so am pretty flexible when it comes to accommodating what works best for my pet parents! My mom is also very helpful in the chance that I do leave home, she resides with me! I have a decent sized fenced backyard for being in the city. We love to play fetch and run perimeter. Inside we like to use our indoor manners. Typically all of the dogs sleep together with blankets and cushions that I provide in a space that is about 10x10. I do have crates to utilize if it is the pet parents preference or if we have concerns with potty or chewing issues (I may utilize a doggy diaper when in doors if your dog marks inside) . Some dogs do get to sleep in a separate space from other dogs or in a room with one of my kids if that is where they feel the most comfortable and behave the best.

About: I have had dogs and cats in my home since I was a child. I have always taken the best of care of my pets. I worked for the Humane Society at one time, but my heart almost broke with love for all of those animals. I always wave and speak to animals, a little corny, but true. You will not find someone who cares more about the well being of your pet. I have also welcomed pet visitors into my classroom frequently. I am currently off for the summer because I am a teacher, so I have lots of time to love and devote to your pet! I have a fenced back yard that allows for running and playing. My own children love pets also. I have two dogs and two cats of my own.

About: My family always had dogs and cats while I was growing up. I sorted the pictures of the dogs I have known the longest to the shortest, with a photo of me at The Hemingway House in Key West FLA petting a cat. First is my childhood dog named Fezz who passed away in 2020. Second is my brothers beagle, Jack. Next is an old friend’s tan Pitbull named Louise. Then there is my dad’s white puppy named Piggie. The next photos are my friend Andy’s dogs. Two Bully Breeds. The white one is Biggie and the grey one is Gianna. I have watched them a few times and I walk them together. Biggie is a rescue and is considered a high risk dog. He has bit 10+ people, but he loves me so much and is very comfortable around me. I wouldn’t say I’m a dog whisperer, but I certainly have a way with dogs. I have watched my brother’s beagle as well a few times. When I lived in CO (about a decade ago) I watched a German Shepherd and an Alaskan Malamute. They were a handful and hard to walk together as they were both pretty big and strong, but I was still able to do it. I work remote doing life and health insurance, so I’m just looking for a side job to supplement my income until I build my book of business up. I could watch them at my house as I have a huge fenced in yard, but I would rather meet the animal at home where it’s most comfortable for them. When I watch Andy’s dogs, I watch them at his house.

About: I’m knowledgeable in breed-specific needs and maintain consistency to keep them mentally and physically happy! I have previously taken dog behavior courses and am familiar with dog body language. I have worked with dogs of all sizes and ages! No dog is “too much!” I am comfortable with administering medications and providing grooming for long haired/high maintenance breeds. I have worked with puppies all the way up to senior dogs so I am comfortable handling all ages. I have a full-time job but am more than happy to fit time in to take care of your lovely fur baby. My typical shift is 8:00-4:30pm M-F. I have open availability on weekends to provide housesitting! If you are looking for constant care (pet cannot be left alone for 4 hours or more), I am happy to provide that however, I do charge a constant care rate if during the work week as I will need to take those days off and I will need to recoup lost salary. For constant care pets, I do require at least a month’s notice ahead of time so I can get that time off to accommodate. I will never take a sit if my work schedule cannot accommodate it—your pet’s care and safety is extremely important to me. I will work with you to decide if I am the right fit for your pet’s needs and routine. Nothing is worse than upsetting your pet’s routine and comfortability! I now offer drop-visits as well! This is great for people who might need someone to check in your fur baby a couple times a day but does not need around-the-clock needs. I am happy to drop in before work (8am) and can drop by after work! If you’re someone who works longer shifts, this is perfect for you! I am comfortable crating your pet if requested but they are also more than welcome to share a bed with me if they are used to sleeping with you! If you have an unfenced yard, I will keep them on leash at all times. If you have a fenced yard, I will stay out and monitor them until they are ready to come inside. Doors will be locked at all times whether I am in the home with your pet or if I’m at work. If you have any home-alarm systems, I will use them as well.

“Lauren is amazing with our 2 schnauzers. She is responsive and flexible. We are so pleased with her care for our fur babies! Highly recommend her to anyone needing care for their pets.”

About: I love animals! I will play with them, feed and water them, and take them for walks. I love to train animals like to sit and shake. I can give baths to them and wash them and I can also get rid of fleas for them. I'm available Tuesday-Thursday anytime unless I have an appointment. I only have a dog and a cat and they're both spayed and neutered, my dog is very playful and has been great around other dogs and my cat likes to sleep a lot so she won't be any bother to your animals. My animals are playful so if yours are, they would love to play. Your animals will have an amazing time with me and will be well watched! I currently work Friday-Monday 2pm-10pm. I love animals and walking them also puts some exercise in my routine when I just sit in at a desk all day lol I care for your pet just as much as I care for mine! I have an amazing cat named Nova. I make sure she, of course, has food,water, and litter. I play around with her all the time and I smother her with kisses every day. Every time I go to a house with pets, we both just instantly like each other and I play with them! I also have an Australian Shepherd named Ellie and she loves to play outside and go for walks

About: I’ve been taking care of pups and cats since I was around 14 years old! Since then, I’ve had multiple repeated clients and have gained so much experience over the years. I’ve worked with small dogs, larger dogs, and multiple breeds of cats! I know that I can provide the right care and plenty of love for your pet when you’re away. I love to take pictures and videos of their stay as well so you’ll always know how they’re doing! Pick me to be your sitter and you will not regret it!(: I’m currently working part-time as a child care worker in Richland. I don’t work more than 9 hours a day and I have multiple breaks in between to stop by and care for my clients’ pets. For dog boarding, I have a house which has a big area for running and/or potty breaks. I also don’t mind if the dog/cat sleeps in the bed with me! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I currently work part-time in Richland and I work no more than 9 hours a day. I’m allotted multiple breaks during those shifts. I’m also able to request days off fairly easily to adhere to pet sitting needs. Currently, I only care for my cat, Bugs. I take care of his hygiene and play with him constantly. He’s always doing something with me when I’m around. He’s never bored! I will always keep an eye on your pet to ensure their safety. Whether it’s at my home or yours, I will create and maintain the safest environment.

About: I grew up with cats and have 2 and 5 year old dogs currently. I love having friends pets over for weekends, play dates, and getting outside for walks. I hope I can share my passion for animals with you and your family by helping you out. I will love your fur baby like it’s my own. I work during the day, but would love to help you out in the afternoon/evenings. I am also available during the weekends for check ins and overnight stays. I will take care of your pets like they are my own. I am comfortable administering medicine if needed. I will keep their litter boxes clean and fresh throughout my time. I will also play and love your animal with lots of pets.

About: Former federal employee and defense contractor (over 25 years)/deferred retirement. I've been boarding, house sitting, dropping in, walking, and running with dogs since COVID. I also provide cat care. Open to other duties as assigned (mail collection, plant and/or pool/spa care, garbage/recycling, snow clearing, etc.). Prices are adjustable, and willing to trade services for a handy person. Golf league couple evenings/week, and ski locally on weekends. Membership Director of the Battle Creek Ski Club - occasional meetings. House sitting radius is unlimited -willing to travel; drop ins or walks within 10 miles please. Safe neighborhood in Battle Creek. I have a .5 acre lot, but only the yard around my pool is fenced in (less than half the lot). Good safety latches on the gates; pool safety cover off-season that dogs are not allowed on. Recently purchased a kiddie pool for the dogs. Dogs must stay on leash during a meet-n-greet at my house, as Rover does not cover those. I do not own any pets or have children, and live alone. I may only be able to adequately supervise 1 dog at a time around the open pool. Bi-level home with carpeted stairs. It has been marked, so if that’s a potential issue, please look elsewhere. 4-wheel drive Jeep, so snow is not likely an issue to get to your fur babies.

About: Hi there, I’m Brittany. Animals make me happy. When I see a pet, I see a child. They are a member of the family. They have the sweetest souls and biggest hearts and I wouldn’t treat them any other way. I have one dog and I was raised with 3 dogs and 2 cats. I have always been an animal lover and I always will be. Every day I take my dog on at least one walk and many times I walk him multiple times per day. I treat my fur babies like family and how I would want to be treated. I am not only here to help you during your busy schedule but to become a friend to you and your fur baby. To house sit during longer durations, I can travel to anywhere. I would love to bring my golden retriever with me if your pets like to socialize and make new friends, he loves other dogs and gets along with them great, he is very social and has been to many dog parks and households with pets, but if not that is ok and my mom can help me care for him while I am gone. Also, I have a boyfriend that loves animals and has 2 children of his own, I would love if he could come hang out with me during my stay if the family was comfortable with it, but if not I can leave and visit him from time to time at his house. For drop in visits, I can assist at my base rate within a 7 mile radius and if it exceeds that I will ask for an additional rate to help with gas reimbursement towards a further commute. If you choose to book me, thank you for trusting me and I won’t disappoint you! My schedule is very flexible, and I would love to help accommodate what you need help with, whether that is daily or weekly. I am always picking up new work bookings. I will treat your animals and home as if it were my own, with love, trust, and respect. I have helped out for many years taking care of people's pets and homes. I have many references.

“Haley helped out when time was tight and we needed an extra hand with daily walks for my 2 dogs. She was thoughtful, punctual and flexible when I needed to make schedule changes.”

About: I've worked as a vet assistant, at a pet store, volunteered at a animal shelter and have been dog training, grooming, walking and pet/dog sitting for years. This is what I do for work so I am able to be with your sweeties as much as possible! Feel free to reach out to me! I always monitor and take as best care of them possible. Excercise when they need, rest when they need, potty, food etc. if your pets have a schedule I'll stick to it. If not well then tell me what you'd like and call it done!

About: As someone who views dogs as furry children, I offer a compassionate and attentive approach to dog sitting. With experience in training and walking dogs of all sizes, I understand the unique needs of each pet. Currently studying nutrition and fitness, I’m well-equipped to keep energetic dogs active, which benefits both their energy levels and attention spans. I am knowledgeable in house and outdoor training, and I am skilled in assertively and kindly interacting with dogs. Rest assured, I will adhere to your dog's feeding and potty routines, ensuring they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I have a purebred adult Boxer and a senior Boxer mix with previous knee surgery, so I’m experienced in providing extra care for dogs with special needs. I previously cared for a Bichon Frise who lived to 13 years old, further enhancing my understanding of long-term pet care. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and see it as an opportunity to build friendships and provide quality care beyond just earning money. Feel free to contact me to discuss your dog’s specific needs and how I can help. I currently own 2 dogs, they arent aggressive but need to be introduced to new people/dogs. I cannot accept aggressive dogs. It's a 4br home with 2 spare rooms so dogs can be separated if needed. My yard is huge and only fenced on 3 sides, i only feel comfortable taking your dog out on a leash. I am very active with my dogs and if allowed (and weather permits) i go on walks, car rides, parks, ponds, i like letting my dogs smell stuff. I work from home but do have a social life. We can discuss if your dog needs to only be kept in my home or if travel is ok. I enjoy walking dogs and i think it helps with behavior. I love to give them lots of attention and treat them as my children.
