About: DETAILED SERVICES PROVIDED HERE: I’ve owned and taken care of pets for 20+ years. I have two dogs which I trained myself to pass the CGC Test.

I treat every pet like one of my own — calm, attentive, and consistent.

I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, whether it’s morning walks, midday drop-ins, feeding, playtime, or evening check-ins. I currently offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walks, and I always prioritize keeping your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible in the comfort of their own home.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and genuinely enjoy spending time with both dogs and cats. Growing up, my family had two dogs that I helped care for throughout my childhood, which taught me the importance of providing pets with love, attention, exercise, and consistent care. More recently, I’ve cared for my boyfriend’s cousin’s cats while house-sitting, including feeding them, keeping them company, and making sure they were comfortable while their owner was away. I’ve also stayed overnight to watch my neighbors’ dogs, giving them attention, playtime, and companionship in their own home. In my current role as a caregiver for a young girl with autism, I also help care for the family’s home, including cleaning the cat’s litter box each week. My caregiving experience has strengthened my patience, responsibility, and attention to detail—qualities that are just as important when caring for pets. While I may not have formal professional pet care experience yet, I take every responsibility seriously and understand how important it is to earn your trust. I will treat your pets with the same kindness, patience, and care that I would give my own. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone dependable to keep them company, my goal is to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I currently have a flexible summer schedule with weekday mornings, evenings, and Sunday mornings available. Pet care is a priority for me, and I’ll always keep my Rover calendar updated as my graduate school schedule changes. As a caregiver, I understand the importance of individualized care. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, respect their home, communicate openly, ask questions when needed, and always prioritize every pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being.

“Wyatt obviously is very good with interacting with dogs in a way that is unique and very valuable. Cooper's walks with Wyatt have been great and I get Cooper back appearing quite mentally stimulated! I def recommend him to look after anyone's pup. 👌🏻”

About: I've been caring for animals since I was 7 years old and have experience with both dogs and cats, including raising 3 liters of kittens from birth to adulthood. Caring for animals has always naturally come to me and I treat every pet with the same patience, attention, and affection I'd want for my own. I am active, attentive, and happy to adjust to each pets individual personality and routine. Whether they love long walks and exploring outside or prefer relaxing at home with plenty of companionship, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they're away from their family. For boarding, I only accept one client's pets at a time, allowing me to provide a calm environment and plenty of individual attention. I'm also comfortable administering medications, assisting with basic grooming such as nail trims, and following detailed feeding, walking, and care instructions. I know being away from home can be an adjustment for some pets, so I am patient and happy to give them the time and reassurance they need to settle in. I go to school part time and will fit your pet into my routine with dedicated time slots to take care of your pet and their needs. I can ensure your pet is in a comfortable environment, get regular exercise, kept up with routines, and following specific instructions provided while monitoring their health.

About: hi all ! :) due to my job, I am not able to have a pet, so I feel very sad without her. I used to use Rover as a way for my dog to have a friend over, but now it’s mostly for my sake of missing having pets around. After all, dogs are everyone’s best friend and makes the world go round! Or at least for me. Anyway, because I miss my dog, I am quite sad of not being able to take her to the beach, on hikes or even as simple as car rides or even cute little couch cuddle sessions. So if your dog came over, I would guarantee to help your dog feel safe, welcome, spoiled, and have lots of fun :) When I did have a doggy, I would feed her twice or three times a day, depending on exercise. Walk them 2 or 3 times a day. Take them to dog parks, the beach, hiking etc. Also administer ointments for seasonal allergies. There are a few parks around I can take them to. We take them hiking or to the beach. My dogs also used to have a bed of her own that they sleep at night with a comforter (literally).

About: I've grown up with all types of dogs my whole life. Dogs are my happiness, and would love to work with them on my free time. I have an open availability right now for any day of the week and weekend. I would be able to dog sit whenever there is an opportunity to. I'm a very gentle person with dogs, I go above and beyond to care for them, play with them and make sure they are always in a safe environment.

About: In 2012 I got my little Yorkie Paisley from a place called Puppy Town. Over the years me and Paisley has grown close and she has become my best friend. Within a few days, I had housebroken her, at first she didn’t know how to walk on a leash, but was practice and patience, she became a master of walking on a leash to the point that she enjoys walking. Although Paisley does not enjoy baths, I do give baths and it brings me joy to see her fresh and clean I have to brush her every day to maintain that beautiful golden coat. I’m afraid to clip her nails so I will take her to Banfield hospital to get her nails clipped. Over the years Paisley became older, and her eye sight has declined, so every morning I have to take the time to take her to her food. She knows where the bathroom is at, but sometimes she’ll have accidents and I have to be patient with her and I have to clean up her accidents and I have to keep an eye on her at all times to make sure she doesn’t hurt herself. Her food and water is still in the same place however, I had to rearrange some furniture and things to make it easier for her to get around… Every summer, I will purchase flea and tick protection, cause I can’t have no pests bothering my baby! Paisley is my best friend and even though she can’t see me anymore, she can sense when I’m there and still wants to cuddle up under me. I’m a landscape photographer, so I do do work in the golden hours however, I’ll be available to watch your best friend Monday through Friday in the early mornings 6am -5pm and also I can watch your furry friend in the evenings 7pm - 12am Weekends 6am - 5pm. Was Paisley I get up sometimes she sleeps but if she is up, she will automatically go to the bathroom when she’s done in the bathroom. I will take her to her bowls. I will feed her while she’s eating. I will clean up what it’s called a wee wee pad I live in an apartment and my room is pet friendly so your fur baby will have toys and also they will have water as well, in the kitchen is where I have their food so they will have access to food and water in the kitchen. Also, I live by a local park so your fur baby will never have to worry about being bored because I will take on walks to the park. Your fur baby will never be bored with me. We will go to the park, play with toys ,and I believe fur babies should always be indoors with a watchful eye.
