Ciara was awesome! She took great care of our two big dogs for the day while we were busy touring a local cave. Ciara provided updates and photos showing her pup and ours playing nicely. Highly recommend letting Ciara watch your buddies too!

About: I require any visiting pets to be vaccinated and on flea preventitive! I have trained many kinds of dogs for many different things! I have a service dog that I trained Bella! I also have a cat that is trained to sit, spin, and jump! I have experience with diabetic animals and with most animals in general! I am educated on animal CPR and heimlich. I'm happiest when I'm spending time with 6 dogs at a time lol it's so much fun! I don't have space to take more than one large dog or 2 small dogs at a time but someday I will! I am working on getting fencing for my yard! I only let 1 dog out at a time. I follow owners feeding schedule. I chart every feeding, drink of water that i see, and every potty break. I send updates daily and am well educated on how to calm an anxious dog!

About: I spent 3 years working at an animal shelter as a kennel assistant. I have a lot of experience working with dogs of various temperments, energy levels, ages, and sizes. I’ve been dog sitting via Rover for over 2 years and have many happy clients. Ian and I have a large fenced in yard for your dog to run around and play in. I love all animals but dogs hold a special place in my heart. We have two dogs, Jesse and Sadie. They are both rescued lab mixes with lots of energy. I would love to spoil your dog as much as I spoil them! I work full time away from the house but Ian has a remote position and works from home. Your dog will be let outside to play and use the bathroom frequently throughout the day. I have a fenced in yard for the dogs to play in. When we are away from the house, I keep the dogs separate to avoid any potential issue that may arise when unsupervised. I am willing to accomodate any reasonable request so if you would like me to do something specific with your dog, just ask!

About: I have had animals my whole life but dogs have always been my favorite! We have 2 dogs on our own. I've taken care of neighbors, friends and families pets for as long as I can remember. I can take them on walks, feed, water , bathe and exercise them. I am currently running my own business and I am home most of the week, so my schedule is pretty open to be able to do care whenever the client is requesting. We live in the country and have an option of a fenced-in dog area. Our home is Completely dog friendly! We offer boarding as well and have plenty of space.

About: I have always been an avid animal-lover. From childhood into adulthood, I have owned and cared for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, small mammals, reptiles, birds & fish. My family & I currently share our home with two dogs, a bearded dragon, a Russian tortoise, & a ball python. I have several years of professional work experience in animal care (zoo, kennel care, walking, basic grooming) and wildlife / parks & recreation—both of which are relevant. I enjoy the outdoors and keeping all of our furry (& scaly) friends happy. I will board dogs, small mammals, reptiles & birds in my home! Upon request, I can do drop-in visits for cats or exotic animals within a 15 mile radius. I am currently a stay-at-home mom & so my schedule allows me to be at home majority of the time. If I need to leave the house, it’s never for more than a couple of hours. I have a large four-story home, which provides amble space for pets to play or to be separated if need be. I utilize crates for dogs who need or prefer it. Our yard is unfenced, so I use slip leads and tie-out cables for potty time.

My 5 mo old puppy stayed with Aime for doggy day care while I was at work and it seems like he had a great time playing with Aime and her dog, Osito. Aime was very communicative throughout the day by sending pictures and videos, which I appreciated. Even prior to this booking we had a meet and greet and she was always very professional, friendly and clearly understands what it takes to care for a dog - which made it easy for me to trust her to care for my pup. I will continue to use Aime for future day care needs and would recommend her to anyone!

Jenn was so good to my puppy! Sadie came home exhausted from a fun day on the farm. She was also able to accommodate us on short notice which was amazing.

About: I have a dog of my own now and understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet! I stay active and go on daily walks (sometimes twice a day), so your dog will get plenty of exercise, attention, and care. I also have two cats, so I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats and their different needs. I’m reliable, patient, and treat every pet like my own—whether that’s going for walks, playtime, or just giving them love and attention while you’re away. I have a full time job that is very flexible. I go on walks in the middle of the day lots of times, and am also free some mornings and evenings. I care for pets based on each owner’s preferences and routines to make them feel as comfortable as possible. I’m experienced with leash walks, playtime, and outings like the dog park if approved. Safety is always my priority, and I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, energy level, and needs. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel loved, secure, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a fur baby of my own that is glad to keep yours company if needed as well!

This was the first time that we have left our puppies (9 months and 9 weeks). Erica and family treated them so well and sent pictures and videos. Thanks so much for taking such good care of our babies 😊

About: I have taken care of animals from a very young age. But the past 15 I have watched my adult children's dogs many times at my home. I have had several senior dogs and dogs on medications. Our current dog, Riley loves all dogs and is very playful I work part-time from home and am able to take multiple breaks for outside time and walks throughout the day. During nice weather I am outside in the yard gardening frequently. We have a large fenced yard and a fun loving pup, Riley who really would love a playmate. We also have a doggy door in the outside porch. The door to the upstairs is kept closed unless we are up there to prevent accidents.
