About: I love dogs and cats! Each one has their own personality and quirks. My goal is to build a trusting relationship with any animal in my care. It's such a joy when I can communicate with an animal! I will always do my best to keep your pets safe and happy. I know some pets are very energetic and love to play rough, while others just want to be snuggled and pet. Either way, I'm up for the job! I will ask lots of questions about your fur friend so we can get off on the right foot! I'm a stickler for cleaning up after dogs or cats in my care. I have no problem scooping kitty litter every day or picking up puppy packages in the park (or your yard, for that matter). My goal is to provide a wonderful experience for you and your pet!
About: I've always loved being around animals and have lots of experience caring for pets of all ages and personalities, from playful puppies to senior pets who need extra love and patience. I currently work as a PA, so I'm comfortable with giving medications, sticking to routines, and noticing when something seems off. I'm also a cat dad to two kitties one senior kitty and one young kitty with the energy of a lion so I truly understand different needs, energy levels, and personalities. I treat every pet like my own and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that's walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, and I'd love to take great care of your pets while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide attentive care, check-ins, walks, and quality time throughout the day. I'm available on weekdays (especially afternoons and evenings) as well as weekends, and I'm happy to work around your pet's usual schedule to keep things consistent. I prioritize reliable timing, clear communication, and making sure each pet gets the attention they need rather than feeling rushed. I care for pets in a calm, safe, and familiar way, whether that’s in my home or in my client’s home. I follow all routines closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions, to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I’m very attentive to doors, windows, and household safety, and I always make sure pets are secure and supervised.

“Our experience with Tiffany has been excellent. She is very punctual, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs. We appreciate the regular updates and photos—it gives us a peace of mind during the day. Our dog Coco is anxious and gets nervous with when other dogs walk near by but with Tiffany, our dog has become less anxious and happy and well-exercised every time. A dependable and professional service. She is great with our dog. Highly recommend!”
About: I've cared for several senior dogs with medical issues, such as seizures, and assisted in the recovery of a torn CCL. I also have 20+ years administering medicine that were prescribed by vets.

I'm available week days and weekends with advanced notice. I have a medium sized crate if need be depending on individual fur baby needs. Whenever dropping in on a pet I'm very respectful of their property and follow instructions well.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs for 50 years. I’ve used sitters for my pets and know how important they are when you leave. My dog was so sad to see my suitcase. So I know how much attention they need to feel better. Our pets are part of the family and need time and attention, and that’s how can help. I am currently retired and for the first time in my life animal free. So I am looking to help others and enjoy time with the pets. I can drive and be at your home as needed. I am comfortable walking your dog for a distance. And of course petting the cats and dogs properly comes from years of practice.

Your fur friend will not be alone & we will offer free pets, walks & play time, as we have a pup as well who is Mr. Social! I’m currently working part time as a fitness coach close by & sub teacher & generally home most of the time. I love medium to large dogs, but just recently lost our 17 year old little dog. I have a fully fenced yard and always monitor our dogs outside. Inside, we use a fenced off area to keep dogs out of kitchen & downstairs. I prefer no dogs on furniture and up to date on vaccines.

I will always keep an eye on your furry friends and not let them out without a leash unless specified okay to do so. I would treat your dog as if my own, and do everything in my power to keep them as safe and secure as possible, of course.
“As always, Alison is very caring to our dogs. We can tell that Bingo and blue love her a lot. She also takes good photos of our dogs.

Currently I am in grad school so I do have some classes, however there is a lot of availability in my schedule especially if you are looking for furry friend to go on a late afternoon walk. If I am in a client’s home I will always make sure to either have your pet on a leash or in a fenced in area, depending on permissions. My go to is follow the owner’s instructions, and if something comes up I will ask or take the safest option (ie leash always while outside). If a client’s pet is to stay with me, I do have a small dog park I can take them to.
About: Hi! I joined a local organization called Purrfect Pals at 16 years old. It was a place dedicated to giving our feline friends a chance for or they provided a happy life for our feline friends where they could live out the rest of their days in peace. Old or young, healthy or sick, grumpy or happy. They all had a home at perfect pals! I strive to follow the same ideals and treat all furry friends as my own family. I grew up with dogs and cats and have spent my entire life around them. Often being called a Dog or Cat whisper (Though i always deny it!) I know how difficult it is to trust your baby with a stranger, I promise to treat your baby as mine. As I would wish no less for my Loki. Hi, Honestly it’s only three days out of the week that I need to limit the exact times that i can provide potty breaks. I work three 9s and two 6.5s, while having Thursday and Fridays off work. I often start early in the morning and am off work by early to mid afternoon, which provides plenty of time for our furry friends even on days I do work my other job! As long as i’m aware of the time frame I can be pretty dang flexible! Base Expectations for Cat Care: Food! water refresh, litter box cleaning, brushing (if cat likes) and play time (this length and type depending on cat (please tell me all about your kitty!)), Base Expectations for Dog Care: Feeding, water refill, potty break! play time! please tell me what your dog likes! I prefer to meet the dog where they are :) *I’ll follow all feeding schedules as best I can!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ames Lake
Ana was wonderful! She was extremely reliable, professional, and clearly great with dogs. We felt completely comfortable knowing our dog was in her care. She communicated well, showed up on time, and treated our dog with kindness and attention. We highly recommend Ana to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!
Soma has been absolutely awesome! She walked our dog everyday, came on time, and that realizability gave us such peace of mind when we were away. Even when we arrived back a day later than planned because of flight cancellations, she committed to walking our dog for that day despite having to move her own schedule around. Cannot thank her enough!!

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
