“Dave is fabulous! He's a personable guy, who was wonderful to my dog. And, he showed up on time, every time, regardless of the weather. I am very pleased that Rover.com connected us and I truly appreciated Dave's help in my time of need. I would most definitely engage Dave's services again and I would highly recommend him to others needing help with their companion animals.”

I believe in creating a happy and upbeat environment while ensuring the safety and well-being of your beloved pets. I'm excited to meet your furry companions and provide them with the care and attention they deserve! I am currently working from home with a very flexible schedule. Looking to stay active, while making extra money to pay off school loans. My schedule is capable to meet a wide variety of clients. I am happy to care for animals in others home, being attentive and following guidelines of the owners. Treating all animals with the love I share for my own pets.

About: I’m a dependable, caring pet lover who treats every dog like family. I understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to build trust and make each walk a positive experience. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and temperaments, including energetic dogs who need plenty of exercise, as well as senior dogs who may prefer a slower, more relaxed pace. I’m attentive to body language and behavior and prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort at all times. Whether your dog needs an active walk, some extra exercise and playtime, or simply companionship while you’re away, I’ll provide dependable care and plenty of attention. I’m also happy to follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, medications, routines, leash preferences, and other special needs. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your dog is in caring, responsible hands while you’re away. I'm currently in a remote position making my scheduling flexible, thus my schedule is open all 7 days throughout the week. I look forward to hearing what you need! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for your pet. I treat every dog with patience, kindness, and respect while making sure they feel comfortable and secure in their environment. For walks, I use safe leash-handling practices and stay attentive to my surroundings, other animals, traffic, and anything that could make a pet uncomfortable or unsafe. I never rush a dog and adjust the pace and length of the walk based on their age, energy level, and individual needs. When caring for pets in their home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable while you're away. I’m respectful of your home, keep doors and gates securely closed, and make sure your pet has access to fresh water and anything else you’ve provided for their care. I’ll keep you updated throughout the visit and communicate promptly if I notice anything unusual with your pet. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and being cared for as if they were my own.

“Thank you for all your help today. I’m sorry it was such a mess. 😊”

About: I worked at a boarding pet care store for over 2 years in high school. Where I took care of dogs of all ages and sizes as well as working up front where I gained tons of knowledge about animals.

I make sure that any pet feels safe and comfortable with me as well as ensure that they get the proper care and love they need while I’m with them.

“My rescue pup LOVES walks with Jaci!! She is very cautious around new people and Jaci’s calm presence is great for anxious or uncertain dogs. She stays consistent with my pup’s structured walks which helps build those routines! Jaci is super communicative and provides plenty of updates and pictures after each walk. I cannot recommend her enough!!”

About: I am a dog and cat owner. I am very responsible and fun. I think that pets are not just “pets” and that they are family and should be taken care of as so. I have experience watching three different families animals. I watched a families dog for 3 months when they went over seas. I try my best to be flexible but I do attend nursing school. Outside of my classes I typically have an open schedule. I am dependable when it comes to being punctual and completing any and all tasks. I set goals for myself and I always give 110 percent in whatever I am doing. I am comfortable with any sized dog and also any other pets. I am also comfortable with any age of the animal that I am taking care of. I work from home and build my own schedule. I have flexibility in my schedule to take pets to dog parks and out for a long walk. I respect that pets are most comfortable in their own space with their own smells and routines. I follow your instructions closely — from feeding times and walk routes to any quirks or commands your pet knows. I treat your home with care and always leave it exactly as I found it.

About: Hi there! I’m Katie, your go-to pet lover who believes every wag, purr, and cuddle makes life brighter. I’ve grown up around animals and have spent 15 years caring for dogs, cats, and even the occasional quirky critter. Whether your pup needs adventurous walks, your senior dog needs gentle care, or your cat just wants a playmate, I’ve got it covered. Caring for animals isn’t something I have to “make time for”—it’s already woven into my daily rhythm. Each day, I start and end with time spent outdoors, which makes dog walking and playtime a natural part of my schedule. I plan my mornings and evenings around walks, meals, and check-ins, and I keep my afternoons flexible for drop-ins or longer adventures. When I come to your home, my priority is keeping your pet comfortable in their own environment. I follow your instructions closely—feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications, and special quirks are all respected. I keep things tidy, give them plenty of attention, and send you updates so you know they’re well cared for. Pets feel secure because they get to stay in the space they know best, while still getting all the affection and companionship they need.

About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and energy levels. From fun-filled walks and playtime to administering medications and providing attentive senior care, I tailor my approach to each dog’s unique needs. I’m also skilled in basic training and maintaining a clean, safe, and comfortable environment. My passion for keeping dogs happy and healthy ensures they feel loved and cared for while you’re away. Daily Routine:     1.    Morning Care:     •    Start the day with a morning potty break for Tootsie, followed by her breakfast. Puppies often have high energy in the morning, so I set aside 15-20 minutes for a walk or playtime to help her burn off energy.     •    This ensures she’s settled while I begin my workday.     2.    Midday Break:     •    Working from home allows me to schedule a midday potty break and a short walk. This keeps Tootsie active and gives me a mental break from work.     3.    Afternoon Engagement:     •    I incorporate short play sessions between tasks to provide Toots with mental stimulation, whether it’s a game of fetch, tug, or a puzzle toy.     •    These breaks are timed to coincide with natural pauses in my workflow, helping me stay refreshed and productive.     4.    Evening Care:     •    I dedicate time for a longer walk or play session to meet her exercise needs.     •    Dinner and another potty break follow, ensuring she’s relaxed for the evening.     5.    Winding Down:     •    We end the day with cuddle time and one last potty break before bed, maintaining her routine and comfort. Weekly Routine:     •    Training Sessions: I include short, 5-10 minute training sessions daily to reinforce good behaviors and teach new commands.     •    Socialization: On weekends, I take my dog to a park or pet-friendly area to expose her to new environments, people, and other dogs.     •    Grooming and Maintenance: Weekly brushing keeps her long coat healthy, and I check her nails and ears regularly to prevent any issues.     •    House Cleaning: I allocate time to clean her bedding, toys, and the areas where she spends time to maintain hygiene. Working from home makes it easier to integrate these tasks naturally into my day. It ensures Tootsie’s needs are met while allowing me to balance work responsibilities effectively. When caring for pets in either my own home or a client's home, I prioritize safety by ensuring a secure environment, following their specific care instructions diligently, closely monitoring their behavior, and always keeping their well-being at the forefront, including providing proper food, water, exercise, and access to designated bathroom areas, while fostering a trusting relationship through consistent routines and gentle interactions. Key aspects of pet care, depending on the service offered: Basic Needs: Feeding: Providing the correct amount of their prescribed food at scheduled times, ensuring fresh water is always available. Waste Management: Regularly cleaning litter boxes, taking dogs outside for bathroom breaks, and proper disposal of waste. Exercise: Engaging in appropriate physical activity based on the pet's breed and needs, such as walks, playtime, or interactive toys. Safety Measures: Secure Environment: Checking for potential hazards like open doors, toxic substances, and securing areas that could be dangerous for the pet. Leash Supervision: Always using a leash when walking dogs outdoors in public areas. Medication Administration: Following strict instructions for administering any prescribed medications. Trust Building: Positive Reinforcement: Using positive training techniques and rewards to build a positive relationship. Gentle Handling: Respecting the pet's boundaries and comfort level, avoiding forceful actions. Communication: Maintaining open communication with the client regarding any concerns or changes in the pet's behavior.

About: I have had dogs all my life and I have a 3 year old lab mix named Frannie. I love giving dogs the attention and exercise that they need to live a happy life! My dog Frannie is hyper active and suffers from anxiety, therefore I know what it is like to have a hyper or uncomfortable dog. I love making sure Frannie feels her best 24/7 and I feel the same about other dogs. I love to go on walks, play fetch, and roll around on the floor with any dog who is willing. I will treat your dog as if they were my own and I will make sure that I leave them as comfortable as they were when I arrived to your home!

About: If your pet could choose their own sitter, I’d like to think we’d be friends. 🐾✨ Leaving your pet behind can be stressful, but my goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and cared for while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I currently share my home with three cats and an energetic Lab/Boxer puppy. I have over two years of foster experience and have cared for up to 13 cats at once, giving me hands-on experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and temperaments. I also volunteer walking shelter dogs, giving me experience with dogs of all temperaments, sizes, and backgrounds. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, patience, and love. I believe every pet deserves personalized care, and I’ll take the time to get to know their routine, quirks, and preferences. Whether your pet loves constant attention or prefers their own space, I’ll provide care that makes them feel safe and comfortable. I specialize in: ✅ Drop-in Visits: Every 30 minute visit includes a photo update, fresh water, potty break, playtime, and a full report card. Not just a quick hello! ✅ House Sitting: I provide daytime check-ins every 4–6 hours for meals, potty breaks, and playtime, plus overnight companionship so your pet never feels alone in their own home.

As a stay at home sitter with a fully flexible schedule, I’m available seven days a week, mornings through evenings, with no rushing off to a separate job in between. This means your pet isn’t waiting hours for their next check-in or walk. I can accommodate early morning drop-ins, midday visits, evening walks, and last minute requests without it being a disruption to my routine. For house sitting, being home-based means your pet gets consistent, attentive company throughout the entire stay not just the hours before and after a 9 to 5. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. Since I offer in-home visits, walks, and overnight stays in your home, your pet remains in their familiar environment, which helps reduce stress and keeps their daily routine consistent. I take time to understand each pet’s specific needs, including feeding schedules, medication instructions, behavior preferences, and any household rules. I also make sure doors, gates, and entry points are handled carefully and responsibly at all times. During every visit or overnight stay, I maintain a calm and attentive presence so your pet feels secure and cared for. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos so you always know how things are going while you’re away. My goal is to provide dependable care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind.
