Maressa does a phenomenal job with my pups! We needed a little extra help during the day with our younger dog and she is always on time and takes great care of him. On top of that, she plays with both of my pups and sends adorable pictures. Would recommend her to anyone!!

About: I have been taking care of dogs for many years. I have had experience with personal animals as well as house and dog sitting for others. I have working in healthcare for a few years. I also have over 12 years of experience with horses! I am currently working part time, available for afternoons, nights and weekends. Also flexible when you need a sitter the most. Also during holidays. :) I plan to take care of your beloved animals, keeping them to their normal routine as much as possible. I plan to keep their environment clean. I hope to take them on walks, and their favorite activities!

Kaylan was terrific. She fed our cats and played with them. She is a good communicator, very responsible, and helped us out an extra time when we needed it.

About: I have taken care of puppies and senior dogs and all different kinds of breeds! I love all dogs and work with kindness and patience! In the summers I'm pretty free so it just comes down to my schedule with other sitting commitments! I'm pretty flexible so whatever the animals need I try to do! I go by the book! Whatever the pet-parents do and require for their animals is what I do! I am patient and kind and respectful!

About: Hello! My name is Emily, I’m 20 Y/O and have been around dogs and cats my entire life, and have had many family and friends trust me to take care of their pets for vacations/trips! My favorite part of the day is coming home to my dog and cat waiting for me at the door! Giving them and receiving some much needed love after a long day is the best way to wind down! I can always make an AM and PM stop/stay nights if needed, however midday sometimes varies! Let me know your preference(s) ahead of time and it should be just fine! I love and can work with all dogs including big dogs, high energy and “sassy” cats, and am good with crating animals if needed.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have always had a genuine love for animals and caring for them. I’ve provided both overnight and daytime care for dogs through pet sitting for family and friends and understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pet. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, including puppies and senior dogs, and can follow medication or special care routines if needed. I provide walking, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention to help pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I am currently home from school, so I have plenty of time to play with your pup! I understand how important consistency is for pets and always do my best to follow their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for. My goal is always to provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos for added peace of mind.

About: I’ve taken care of Pets and had pets since I was 10 years old. I’m very energetic and reliable and I love walking and playing with my own pets. I am currently working only part time so I will have plenty of time to play with your pets and give them lots of attention and exercise. I have one dog that is super friendly that can be in the crate or on our bottom level. We have one outdoor cat that pretty much stays in our barn. Our kids are very good with pets and I love them. We all have experience with overnight boarding of puppies and adult dogs.

From the moment I met Sarah, I could tell our animals would be in excellent hands! Sarah is smart, kind, intuitive, and has great common sense. She took care of our two cats and even our chickens while we were gone for a week and I appreciated her thorough and timely check ins, great pictures, and the excellent care she provided. I cannot recommend her enough! I will definitely rebook her anytime I need a pet sitter!!

About: I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry family behind, and I’m here to make that easier. I’m a proud (and very devoted) cat mom to two spoiled kitties, and I’ve also cared for dogs throughout my life. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, or just extra cuddles, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I prioritize clear communication, regular updates, and most importantly, making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. 🐾 I am currently in a career transition so I have all the time in the world to take care of your pets! I can stop by anytime after 9AM and before 8PM. I make sure your pets feel safe with me. I pride myself on being able to read animals body language. I also love to spoil them with treats but I can avoid that if requested.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life since birth. I started taking more responsibility for them around the age of 10. The moment I graduated college, I got my own rescue doggo. Maisie is now 10 and likes to sleep and cuddle, so I’m looking to add some energetic pups to my walking route. I’m a nurse and have random time off during the week. My schedule is far from consistent but I hope that helps me stand out as someone to just drop in periodically. I’m a pet parent myself so I know how anxious people can get when you’re away from your babies. And I know how anxious your pets can get too! I’ll follow any sort of instruction you leave!

About: I have a lot of experience taking care of animals of all kinds. I have pets of my own, along with 3 years as a supervisor at a pet store. I love animals of all shapes and sizes. I'm currently working part time at Grand Valley at the Laker Store, so if a time lines up with my schedule where I can also take a job on Rover, I'll do it. I'll take some time to get to know the animal first before starting to care for it, or whatever the owner needs me to do. I'm also experienced in nail trims and certified due to my previous job, so I'm able to do those if desired.

About: I have many years of experience in volunteering at animal shelters working with all kinds of dogs. I am passionate about being able to help the animals feel loved and happy. I have worked with many ages of dogs from puppies to seniors and I love caring for them all. I currently work part-time in the evenings three days a week, so I have mornings open as well as all day on weekends, excluding Sundays. When caring for pets in a client's home I make sure to keep communication with the owner. I know security is very important as well as respecting the boundaries of the homeowner. The animal's well-being is my top priority so my time will be spent caring for the pet.

Cats and dogs are allowed on beds and couches and we have a yard that is not fenced but dogs love it and still can play outside.

About: I love all types of animals. I have experience in rabbits, cats & dogs. My family has always had animals, it’s a second nature to me. I am currently unemployed but looking for part time work. I would love to pick up pet sitting opportunities as much as possible. I have a free and open schedule. I do not offer pet services in my home but at the clients home I am more than willing to crate animals or let them out into a fenced in yard to watch them. I am good with rewarding with treats, having play time, picking up poop, cleaning, etc. I am fully capable of the responsibility it takes to care and build trust with animals.

About: I trained my two girls on my own. It took patience and consistent attention but they are the best girls. Worth it! I know how to tend to anxious dogs as my Aussie can be occasionally reactive. I’m working full-time as a paralegal! I work from home Monday, Thursday, and Friday. So I have flexibility to schedule your fur babies in during those days. 🥰🐾 Weekends are OPEN! I plan to care for your fur babies as if they were mine! Protective of their space; cautious of their surroundings; setting them up for success—always!
