“We had a great experience! Communication was excellent from start to finish, and I always felt confident that Tanner was in good hands. He was well cared for, let out for potty breaks on schedule, and seemed happy and relaxed when we got home. I would definitely book again and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”

“Heather is a great help! She is so sweet and kind with our little goldendoodle puppy Lulu. She is very responsive and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend her services.”

About: I’m a current dog mom to a 1 year old lab/black mouth curr and a 3 year old Yorky Chihuahua. Since I was a child i’ve always had a genuine love for all beings. I’ve worked with pets in the past when I was younger but as my daughter got older I adopted my first fur baby at 8 weeks who is now three years old and then adopted my second at 9 weeks old. My background working in the childcare, caregiving and Mental Health field has shaped my skills with being intentional during all moments while maintaining trust, patience, consistency and good communication. I believe in caring for all fur babies the same way I’d want mine to be loved and cared for during my most busiest days. With working part time I am looking for independent and intentional ways of expanding my skills in community service while utilizing my expertise as a dog parent to two. I hope to have to honor to be a service and community member to you and your family. I am currently working part time but I am available to flex my schedule Tailored to family needs.

I also tend to use observation skills so that way I can identify changes in dogs behaviors to keep parents/owners updated. I enjoy making sure that all pets are safe, loved and comfortable no matter the location or time.
About: Some things that I've done with all my own dogs as well as when dog sitting/walking for family friends would be; Walking, food/water, playing, potty time, and lots of petting. My own dogs (2 past, 1 present): -My first dog was a beautiful golden retriever named Bo. I taught him some basic commands with sign language when I was little. He taught me a lot about how to act and move around dogs, as well as how sweet they can be. -My second dog was my giant baby, a half english mastiff, half short-haired saint bernard named Scar (aka bunny, aka goober). I held him when he was the size of a potato, and then continued to do so when he grew to 150 lbs. I taught him how to stop, cross the street with me, and slow, all with verbal commands. -My third dog is a half black lab, half golden retriever, full fluffy goofball named Buddy. He loves to join any conversations going on with his barks. His smarts aren't always there, but his heart absolutely is. I'm at home most of the time and with a pretty open schedule. I'll have tons of time to make sure pets are well cared for and happy. My own dog is on the older side, but has plenty of energy to spare and share with your four legged family. I have a decently sized fenced in backyard that's great for all sized dogs to get their energy out.

About: Update: We have adopted 7/7/26 a Shih-tzu 10lb. I raised both a Shih Tzu-Poodle mix and a Tibetan Terrier from puppies into their senior years. They were truly part of our family, and after losing them, I’m not emotionally ready to adopt again. (My daughter got a dog now-7/7/2026) Pet sitting feels like the perfect win-win your pets will be showered with love, attention, and care, while also bringing that special furry companionship back into our home. I’m experienced in daily pet care, including brushing and coat maintenance. Since both of our dogs had coats that matted easily, daily brushing and regular grooming were essential, and I personally maintained and trimmed their coats myself. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve pet sat for friends and family during vacations, often caring for their pets for weeks at a time. I also worked as a nanny for several years, where I regularly cared for a German Shepherd who became one of my favorites. We took daily walks to the park, and I helped maintain his coat, especially during shedding season. My love for animals began growing up on a farm surrounded by dogs, cats, and frequent litters of puppies and kittens. Being able to witness and help care for animals from such a young age gave me a deep appreciation for them and taught me patience, attentiveness, and compassion. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I will always care for them as if they were part of my own family. My schedule is very flexible, I work from home in the evenings, the timing is perfect for winding down, they can relax in my office while I work or in our living room or room. In my home: Safety is my top priority. I have a large, fully fenced backyard, that connect directly to our lower living area allowing for secure and easy access for potty breaks. For variety i can take them around our neighborhood for walks and can utilize a large park at a nearby school for additional play time. Pet not good on walks, NO PROBLEM: Having owned a Tibetan Terrier who was incredibly loving with family and children, but reactive to other dogs on walks I deeply understand that every dog is different. If a pet is anxious or not good on walks, we can stay withing our private back yard. In the clients home: I follow the owners established routines and instructions to keep the pet safe and comfortable in their familiar environment, including tailored neighborhood walks.

“Andrhu was so kind and flexible. When access to the house was unavailable, at my poor planning, he was incredibly understanding and accommodating. It is more appreciated than he may know. He was very thorough as well during his drop in visits for our 2 pups.”

“Marie has been a total gift for our family! When my mom suddenly found herself in the hospital following a stroke I needed to quickly find someone to care for her cat until she returned home. I reached out to Marie for a meet and greet and she was able to come within a few hours. I could tell right away she would be a great fit and she agreed to help as long as was needed. It's been several weeks of twice daily visits and I know until my mom is able to return home her sweet cat is being so well cared for. We've returned home for a handful of visits and each time can tell her cat is happy and getting so much love. Marie has been amazing at doing extra things around the house as needed. We are so thankful to have found her and appreciate her being able to help as long as is needed. I know she will be used in the future when my mom is able to return to traveling. Could not recommend enough. She is reliable, incredible with communication and all aspects of pet care (including the best pet photos sent daily)!”

“James is a great dog sitter! He always sends many updates with pictures which makes me feel comfortable knowing Jack is in good hands. He follows instructions and he even made sure to dry Jack off after he got wet in the rain! I definitely recommend his services.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 6. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets I get blocks of time off that allows me to be available 24 hours a day for pet care. I also have 4 daughters who love pets as well so they will be well loved. I have a fenced yard with one small dog and one dog friendly cat. I can easily crate if needed. I also have a large house to roam and kids who would love to cuddle them on our couch.
“Christine does such an amazing job, goes over and beyond what is asked of her. My cats love her! And that doesn’t come easily. I never have to worry when I’m gone, it’s such a great comfort. She is always reliable and easy to work with. Will use again! 😊”

Shelby was an excellent pet sitter! She was very communicative throughout the entire time, keeping me updated and giving me peace of mind while I was away.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
