About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, including my own pets since I was 10. I also worked at a dog kennel and as a dog grooming assistant when I was younger, and I’ve dog-sat for other families. These experiences taught me how to safely handle dogs, help with bathing, and keep them calm and comfortable in new places. What makes me different from many sitters is my experience with senior, disabled, and recovering dogs. I’ve cared for pets after surgery and illness, including staying up overnight to watch them, hand-feeding, helping them move around, and gently taking them outside. I also cared for my disabled Lab whose back legs didn’t work, helping with bathroom needs, cleaning, and daily comfort. Because of this, I’m very patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for dogs who need extra help, medications, or a slower pace. I treat every dog like family and focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily schedule. I complete my schoolwork through flexible online classes, which allows me to be home most of the day. Because of this, I’m able to give pets frequent attention, regular potty breaks, walks, feeding, and companionship throughout the day instead of leaving them alone for long periods. I’m used to caring for pets as part of my daily routine at home, including feeding, cleaning, and making sure they are comfortable and safe. This flexible schedule allows me to be reliable and fully present for the pets in my care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they are fed on time, have fresh water, get walks or potty breaks, and receive lots of attention and playtime. I also give any medications if needed and keep their space clean. I respect the client’s home and keep everything tidy, including cleaning up pet messes, washing bowls if needed, and making sure doors and gates stay secure. I send updates and photos so owners know their pet is safe and happy. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed and cared for while their family is away.

“It’s our first time using Rover for my anxious pup so we were a little nervous but Allore was super accommodating, kind and understanding. Communication was easy, she’s flexible with her time and willing to adjust to our requests. She’s super patient with my dog (who takes awhile to warm up on people), takes him on walks and updates us regularly! So grateful to meet you, Allore! Hope we can book you as his sitter again!”

About: I have 27 years experience caring for dogs, among many other animals of all breeds, sizes, needs, and ages. Animals will receive the same care that I would expect for mine and be treated as members of the family. They will be well attended to, and receive love and care from not just myself, but all members of the family. They are permitted on the furniture, in bed with us and to be where we are at anytime. There are beds and blankets in every room for their comfort. I am home full time so there is nearly always someone here with the pups and they are cared for and loved by all members of the family. Dogs can be fed up to 4x/day. There are cats in the household (they usually confine themselves to their basement palace,) children ages 2-9 all whom are extremely good with animals. We are a happy, hopping home, but able to provide quiet time and space for dogs who are easily overwhelmed. Your dogs will be well entertained with cuddles, plenty of time outside, games, love and toys galore. Dogs are not generally taken on walks around the neighborhood, unless requested, but do receive plenty of indoor and outdoor playtime with us (fetch, frisbee, etc) for physical and mental stimulation. If we do plan on going for a nice walk or a hike, the pups will accompany us. Single overnight booking includes 24 hours of care (e.g. 1p Sat-1p Sun, or any combo of 24 hours) with a total of 3 hours of leeway given. If you will be expecting the stay to be more than 24 hours (27 with leeway) please note in your message or book as one overnight and one day care (e.g. 10am Sat-7p Sun.) Walks and more are available as add on services. Add on service rates and info is sent upon booking or by request prior to booking, as Rover, unfortunately, does not have a spot for us to offer these and book it with the stay. All pet parents receive text and photo updates, unless not desired. We take safety very seriously: -All dogs are fed separately -Water is always available indoors and out. -House is kept dog proof from dangerous items the dogs could chew or eat. -Someone is always outside with the guest dog. -Exposure and indoor climate are limited, or adjusted, based on the dog's tolerance. -I am well educated in pet first aid and am also a human nurse -I have many years of dog training experience, including my own service dog. -In the extremely unlikely event that a dog would escape, all guest pups wear a bright orange collar stating that they are a guest in an unfamiliar area and our phone number, along with their normal collar and tags. -For the escape artist, again, in the very unlikely event they would become separated from us, they wear a very efficient gps tag to allow for a very rapid recovery. Escape artists are also attached to a 100 foot long lead while in the yard just as a safety precaution (our yard is well fenced but a very crafty dog could possibly find a way out). Your dog is our priority and his love and care is our passion. Please ask if you have any other questions. We work from home and someone is here 90% of the time. We can tailor our schedule to your specifications or as your pet needs. I have a large fenced in yard (currently the main fencing is damaged and shorter fencing of 3.5 feet in height is filling in the gaps. We can put your dog on a long lead to be able to roam a bit or take outside on leash only if the short fencing will not be adequate to contain your dog.) Someone is always outside with your dog to ensure their safety. We have gates and cat doors to separate animals if the need should arise or during feeding time for your dog and ours.) Our black lab is extremely submissive and playful and will keep your dogs entertained as long as they want to play. She will leave them alone if they do not. Our youngest child, though very good with animals, is never left alone with the guest dog(s).

About: With a large, fully fenced yard and a work-from-home schedule, I’m able to provide constant supervision, plenty of playtime, and lots of love and attention throughout the day. I have years of experience on Rover sitting hundreds of different kinds of dogs. Embracing all different breeds and personalities that they have to offer. I will make sure your dog feels at home with on time meals, a comfortable schedule, and free roam of my home they might not want to leave.

“Hope was great with Li'l Bit. She was prompt, friendly, and focused on his care. I highly recommend her!”

“Jaylynn was wonderful, she watched our dog at our house for 8 days and everything went great. My dog gets anxious being alone and I was nervous leaving her however Jaylynn was great with her. She sent me updates and pictures throughout my trip and Phobee warmed up to her quickly. I would highly recommend and I even plan to reach out again! Thank you Jaylynn!!!!”

“This was our first time using Rover and having a pet sitter for our dog. We really hit the jackpot when we booked Cristel; she is amazing!! From the moment we first contacted her, it was clear that Cristel is a compassionate and responsible professional who truly cares about animals. During our week-long booking, Cristel provided regular updates through text, photos, and videos, ensuring that we always felt connected with our girl. She provided daily walks, playtime in the backyard, and gave her plenty of love and attention. This kind of care and attentiveness isn’t just comforting; it builds real trust. Pets are family and knowing they’re in the hands of someone who treats them with that same level of love makes all the difference. We also appreciated that Cristel was comfortable caring for our pet axolotl – a first for her! 😊. Her willingness to take on the additional responsibility shows that she is not only skilled but also flexible and accommodating. We look forward to hiring Cristel again and highly recommend her to others.”
