About: I love dogs and have two rescue dogs of my own. Two years ago, I fostered a dog who had been rescued from a puppy mill. She needed lots of patience, care and love, but she is thriving! I understand the needs of skittish animals, and know they need extra kindness. I would love to give your dog love, attention, and to go for a walk! I’m a teacher who is off for the summer. I am available for visits most days. I will make my clients’ animals a priority, and will always give them attention and care. I will care for clients’ pets by walking them, letting them out in a fenced yard, as well feeding and playing with them, and giving them extra attention! I have a lot of patience (I teach middle school!) and dogs bring me a lot of joy! Can’t wait to meet my newest fur friend!

“Briana is so GREAT with our two dogs. She truly cares for Ody and Billie Jean like they are her own. She has great availability, which works amazingly for our hectic schedules. She is truly the best!!”


“Did a great job taking care of and walking Rami. Appreciated having someone looking after our high energy dog while my family and I were out of town for the weekend. 👏🏼👏🏼”


About: I have taken care of dogs for family and friends for years. Others can rely on me to check in, feed, walk, and play with their dogs while away. In addition I am comfortable with all size dogs. My schedule is flexible. I currently work part-time and have plenty of time to watch your pets. My week to week availability varies, but typically am available during the week and weekends to care for your animals. Please reach out for specific availability options for your pet care! I do not have a fenced in yard. I have an elderly small dog that is friendly and keeps to herself. One benefit of my services is that I am very close to a park and the Prairie Path for dog walking and getting energy out. I am open to caring for your pets in your own home too.

“We are still so happy to have Jenny as our dog walker. The care and attention she gives our babies is unparalleled! Jenny is easy to communicate with, flexible, and thoughtful.”


About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5, and i’ve watched dogs for family and friends! I’ve taken care of dogs as small as a Yorkie, to as big as a Great Dane! I currently work as a softball coach so I am typically not available on Tuesdays or Thursdays past 5pm. Additionally, I have tournaments on the weekends which make me unavailable most weekends. But this all means that I would love to work for you during the day while you’re at work or just need a break! I can watch your dog in your own home, and I am very comfortable taking dogs outside or in the back yard. I will listen to your instructions regarding food and crating, as I know every home and animal is different!

About: Hi! I’ve taken care of all types of animals, including cats. I give the upmost respect and love towards each animal I serve. Choose me! I’m currently looking for a new job so I have a lot of time on my hands to care for your pet! Play, eat, repeat! Depending on the comfort level of your animal, I can bring them home with me or come to your place to take care of them. I have a crate, an extra bedroom, and a lead to go outside. Any other needs will need to be discussed.

About: I've been taking care of all kind of creatures as long as I can remember. I've had dogs, cats, reptiles and fish. I've even taken care of birds and wildlife. It's truly my passion to give to these animals. I will give your pet the utmost care and respect. 👍 I'm working part time currently so I can board on the weekends Friday to Sunday. And on Wednesdays. I do take care of my own animals in the mornings but it shouldn't interfere with scheduling. I have a fenced yard and a dog that loves company from other dogs! I can also easily separate my dog from your pet if need be. I can also board at your own place, whatever makes you comfortable.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover, having pets from reptiles, chickens, dogs, to cats. I am also employed full time at a doggy daycare, so I spend a majority of my time around dogs! I work full time at a doggy daycare, but will work around my schedule to be able to care for your babies! I am very flexible, willing to come at almost anytime. I have been described as a "helicopter" pet parent- a little strict when it comes to my pets. They are put up (crated dogs and cats put in their own room) when I am not home to ensure they cannot escape and a strict no human food policy! I will follow whatever rules you set in place for your pets!

About: Growing up with dogs and cats my whole life has given me invaluable experience when it comes to caring for all types of pets! I have been a sitter on Rover for a few years now :) I work remotely so my schedule allows flexibility to accommodate your pet’s routine! I am also available on weekends! I am able to house sit, take your dogs out, play with your pups, walk them, clean your cats litter, etc!! I have a relatively specious house with a fenced in backyard. Currently we do not have pets in the house, so your animal would be receiving all of the attention. I can also take them on walks around our neighborhood! I don't mind if your pets sleep in bed with me but if they need to be crated I can pack those in my car as well :)

About: After traveling thousands of miles and leaving my home country, I also had to leave my little pet in the care of the most important person in my life, my mom. My dog has always been my greatest emotional support, and being apart from him inspired me to stay connected to the love, energy, and purity that pets bring into our lives. I want to care for your pets as if they were my own, giving them all the affection, attention, and respect they deserve. I am currently dedicating myself full-time to pet care. This allows me to be 100% available to take care of your pets throughout the week. For now, I’m available 24/7 and fully committed to giving them the attention and care they need. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness while in your home. I ensure they’re in a familiar environment, maintaining their routine to reduce any stress. During walks, I always use secure leashes, stay alert to surroundings, and avoid potential hazards. I respect your home, following any specific guidelines you provide, and ensure your pet receives the love, attention, and care they deserve. My goal is to create a trustworthy and safe experience for both you and your furry friend!

“Sheila was great with my pug Toby. She was very punctual and was always on time for the scheduled walks. Shr went the extra mile (literally and figuratively) in taking care of him. She even left a bag of treats for Toby as a gift :) She is just awesome! I will definitely book her again next time I need someone to look after Toby??❤️??”


About: I have a 3-year-old Golden Retriever who’s basically my child, and I’ve been caring for my family’s dogs for years. I’ve also put my pup through training classes, so I know the importance of structure, patience, and lots of love! But my love for animals doesn’t stop at dogs, I’m a huge cat person too! My sister has three, and I fully embrace my role as their honorary aunt. I also have experience cat-sitting for a friend, including litter box maintenance and giving them all the love (on their terms, of course).

Whether your pet is a playful pup or a cuddly cat, I’m here to make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for! I am currently a GA student , and in my free time will have time to walk and care for your furry friends when I am not at school. Putting trust into others for your fur babies is HARD, when it comes to my dog I know it can be scary. However , I will treat your baby as my own :), and I’m a frantic pet parent myself. I have taken it upon myself to memorize everything my dog isn’t suppose to eat, and pay closely attention to any off/odd behaviors during our everyday routine.

About: I have been and animal lover my whole life. I have grown up alongside many animals since i was very young, from bunnies, parakeets, chickens, dogs and cats.
