“Wonderful to have a dog lover come in and walk my dogs when I’m away! She was always there when she said she would be and took them for good long walks! Will definitely use again!”
“Nathan is phenomenal with Billy!! He not only takes him for walks but he helps him learn tricks and shows Billy all the attention he so craves. He is a puppy so patience is necessary and Nathan definitely has that. Nathan is great with communication as well, always letting me know how Billy is doing and if he sees that maybe something is off with Billy health wise. I definitely trust him to take great care of my pup. :)”
“Monet is fantastic. My kiddos loved her from the moment she walked in the door. She is calm, patient and attentive and made sure they stayed on their routine. Will definitely have Monet watch my kiddos again.”
About: Animals have been a large part of my life since I was a young child. I had to let my dog go due to cancer some years back and cannot afford one of my own any longer. It would be an honor to spend time with your family member. I've been disabled for 17 years and I'd relish the opportunity to give your family member the attention they need when you're busy schedule requires time away. I will go above and beyond to keep your family member happy and comfortable and of course entertained. As a former pet owner I understand your concern with leaving them in others hands. Your four-legged family will be treated as my own.
About: Hello! I'm a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for puppies, dogs, cats, and even horses. Whether it’s going for long walks, giving belly rubs, or just spending quality time, I truly enjoy connecting with animals of all kinds. I understand the unique needs of each pet and treat them like family—because that’s how I’d want mine cared for. From energetic pups to mellow cats, I’m here to give them all the love, attention, and care they deserve! I am currently a Nursing student with a busy schedule, but make sure to provide the love and care your pets need! I am very flexible and would love to make a schedule that works for both of us. I care for your pets the same way I'd care for mine; lots of love, belly rubs, and only the best service. Providing a safe and trusting relationship between owner and myself.
About: I had a dog for 17years of my life and she truly was my world. I now have a cat and won’t be able to get a dog till I move out, so being able to watch others dogs helps with being patient until I get my own! I also just love dogs a lot I work full time currently but I am willing to work around people’s schedules. I just love being around animals and would love to help someone in the process, so they feel comfortable leaving their babies at home. I give them free rein, but usually for cats I keep them in one room for at least a day to get used to the new environment. Dogs on the other hand can have any space in the house!
About: I have always had a pet growing up both big and small. I am a very patient and caring person so you can rely on me to take good care of your fur ball! I am currently a nursing student in South Dakota but I am now back home in beautiful SoCal and I will be very available here. If you have any specific trails or walks your pup is familiar with let me know! :) I love to explore new areas but would also love to
About: I have been a pet-owner since I was ten years old. I used to do campground pet care from age 10-13. I am pretty great at bonding with animals, getting to be their friend, and helping them get the exercise and attention they need! I love animals that come in all shapes and sizes and I am confident that I will be a great companion for your pet in any way that they need. I love to spend time in the park with my own pets, letting them splash in the creek, playing fetch, running with them, and showing them some good old-fashioned love. Our pets are too often overlooked and Rover is a great opportunity to for your pet to get some love too! I’m currently pursuing my online degree in Recreational Tourism Management and using River as an opportunity to make money on the side! My schedule is virtually open! I have 2 cats of my own, and a family dog—a doberman—so boarding in my own home isn’t terribly ideal for me. I am however very flexible with coming to clients’ homes and giving their pets all the attention they need!
“Morgan is absolutely amazing! She leaves wonderful, detailed cards of the time spent with your pups, she very communicative, and obviously cares much about your fur babies. Thank you so much Morgan for watching my little ones and let me know if you’re in town again as I’d love to have you play with Callisto and Orion some more!”
About: Hello, my name is Sheldon and I grew up in The Black Hills, South Dakota, with my dog and best friend, Duke! We had the best of times adventuring through the ponderosa pines of the forests, scaling its mountains, hiking it’s trails, kayaking it’s waters, playing, swimming, EATING and just having fun as brothers do! Moving away.. far away to attended college, I haven’t seen Duke in over three years. I miss those times and would love to make new relationships with your pups! I understand that pets are much more than just animals, they are family and should be treated as such, with patience and love! I have experience walking, sitting and boarding dogs with some knowledge on training! Im very excited to meet your puppers! During the winter season I am available at all times. My primary work is seasonal and takes place in the summer as a fisherman in Alaska. When I care for pets at a clients home I treat the pet as if it were my own family and I treat the house as it were my own home. In other words, I practice respect.
About: I’ve been housesitting/dogsitting animals for years. Honestly spending any amount of time with animals just automatically makes my day better. I’m a nurse and being able to play with dogs that love you unconditionally is so amazing. I have 2 corgis and they’re my world. This would give me the chance to just love on other people’s pets while I’m not working and to ensure they don’t feel lonely while you’re gone! I moved to Rapid permanently and have Saturdays and Sundays off. During the week my schedule varies from the hospital but I’m more than happy to help in the evenings if needed! I make sure to give your pet all the love and attention they want. Currently am not taking pets overnight where I’m staying, but am more than happy to watch or pet sit at the pets house.
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats in my home for my entire life. I am very good at interpreting what they're trying to say and what they will need. I am flexible with my schedule. I love spending time with animals and making sure they are taken care of while their owners are away. I will take care of pets in the ways that the clients need them to. I do very well with written and spoken instructions and the expectations of taking care of your animals. :)

About: Hello, my name is Kayla, and I love dogs! I have 2 fur babies of my own I am raising right now their names are Maverick and Isabella and they are 3 and 2 yrs old. my favorite breed of dog is Great Danes... I would love to watch over anyone's fur babies, especially big dogs! I dont mind the slobber, boogers, or even the fur! Dog hair is glitter. Dogs are one of the best animals in the world and I have a strong passion for them. Aside from watching dogs, I like to go on walks and I love to bring my fur baby along, Maverick has 3 legs and I think its important to be on a regular exercise routine. For anyone with special needs dogs I am willing to tend to them too, of course with instructions on their routine.

It is temporary that I live in an apartment we couldn't find a house when we moved her so no fence. I do make sure everything is turned off when I leave my home to decrease a chance of fire. I lock my doors. My babies are create trained and they know to go to "bed" (their kennel) when I leave. Any further questions of safety just ask.
