Jennifer does a great job with our 3 dogs. She gets there when I ask, is always available even at the last minute, is flexible in cases where my schedule changes, and the dogs love her!

Alexis does a great job for me. She’s very conscientious. Both my dogs like her from what I could see in the pictures that she sends me and she does extra things with the dogs. Doing some obedience training with my younger dog. When I first started using Rover, I just expected her to let the dogs out so they could go to the bathroom. She does more than I expected would highly recommend her.

Hannah helped us out on Christmas evening when we were going to be away from our house for 12 hrs. We so appreciated the extra mile Hannah went to come a week before Christmas to meet our dogs and speak with us personally so we would feel comfortable leaving our two greyhounds in her care for a bit. She communicate well and responded in a timely manner when we first were setting up the visit with her. We will definitely use Hannah again and absolutely recommend her services! Thanks again Hannah, you helped make our Christmas less stressful!

About: I got my first dog when I was 7 years old and also take care of my parents dog when needed. I also used to walk dogs for my friend’s doggy daycare business and go to others houses to let their dog out. I currently am a dog mom to a silly little 7 year old corgi as well. I have always loved dogs and believe they deserve to be treated with all the love and treats they deserve 💕 I currently work full time during the week, but I am still available to walk or let out your pup to go potty anytime after 5:00pm. I am also available anytime on Saturdays and Sundays for boarding, walking, or let outs! I love walks and can walk your dog anytime they need as I do not have a yard. I have a friendly corgi that is very relaxed and gets along with other dogs well.

About: I've grown up around cats and dogs my entire life. I have pet-sat for people, walked numerous dogs from the shelters, and even fostered shelter cats in my home. I am comfortable with all ages of pets and all sizes. I would love to be available for your needs all weekdays past 4pm. I do work full-time, but would be willing to do whatever I can to help you. I can care for your pets in your home whether it's walking, playing, feeding, or caring for them. I am okay with bathing and brushing the pet. Also okay with taking in the car with me if we go to the dog park.

Sarah has always been a lover of all animals big and small. She has grown up with dogs and has 3 of her own along with hamsters. Sarah is honest, trustworthy and will take good care of any animal that she is hired to watch. She is on time and will respect any instructions that you give her regarding the care of your “family member” because that’s how she views animals. She has always taken good care of ours!

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life I helped raise my parents dog, a four year-old Australian Shepherd named Eddy. I’ve dog sit and watched family and friends dogs, majority of my life. I really enjoy getting exercise and spending quality time with other peoples dogs, being able to socialize with them, play with them and get as much joy from them as I can. Im free in the afternoons Monday- Sunday. Also evenings my schedule is flexible. I live in Chesterton dune land area. I’m a animal lover but dogs are my favorite animals in general. I’ve got experience with many different breeds. From behavioral training - teaching dogs how to do tricks. From bathing and waking running swimming, I’ve got experience working with aggressive rescue to watching multiple dogs. I’m eager to help them no matter what the situation calls for. Thanks -Kyle. I’m currently working part time so I have extra time to earn extra income doing something I really love. It’s truly a dream job for me. I helped rise my parents 4 year old Australian Shepherd, i trained my dog to stay in the proximity of the yard when he was six months old he does not need a leash when we go on walks he stays by my side or within 100 yards. I’m very fortunate that I trained him early on at a young age so he knows the perimeter of the yard. He’ll also sit an watch the other neighborhood. Dogs play. He does not go into the their yards. He just sits at the perimeter of my yard and watches them play This is one something I’m extremely proud of.
