“Kendra took wonderful care of my cats. She was easy to communicate with and kept me updated with as needed. I really like that she was responsive and comfortable with both of my cats.”

“Excellent drop-in visits! Communication was consistent, and I received detailed updates and photos each time. Max was well cared for, given plenty of attention and love. I had complete peace of mind knowing he was in such reliable and caring hands. I highly recommend and will definitely book again!”

“Jennifer did a great job caring for my dogs. My English bulldog can be a little stubborn lol but she did an amazing job with him. We’re so appreciative of the visits and updates, it really gave us peace of mind while we were away. I definitely recommend Jennifer and hope to book her when our next trip comes around!”

“Erika was absolutely amazing when she was caring for my dogs. She came and met them before hand, played with them when she dropped in and took great care of them. One of mine was even sick and she went out of her way to clean and take care of him.”

About: I have been taking care of cats and dogs since I was little. I love walking and playing with dogs. I also love to give treats and train little tricks with dogs. I like to take dogs on long walks and have since I was little. I also love playing tug of war and fetch with dogs. I work part time only on the weekend so I have a lot of time during the week to play and walk dogs. I also love to meet new dogs and enjoy to play with dogs. During the week I have a lot of free time and enjoy walking throughout the day. I have a small inside dog that I walk often and I also know how to crate dogs if need be. I also have an inside cat so I know how to deal with both animals. I often dog sit family friends dogs that range from small pugs to big German shepherd mixes and have learned how to work with both. I also know how to give pill medication to dog s safely.
About: About me: I have time & quality care to give to the pet(s) you love while walking or pet/house sitting because I'm an online college student. I have 22 years of dog, cat and other pet care experience to include pet walking, training, transporting, vet visits & pet/house sitting listed in detail below. I'm starting in the job field of Animal Behavior on completion of my college degree. My previous career of 21 years was in oceanography, & I look forward to giving your pet the love and attention they deserve. Experience in DOG CARE: In the last 22 years, on the side of my regular job, I have been trusted by family, friends and new clients via word of mouth to pet sit for canines of all sorts to include senior dogs, dogs with cancer, high energy dogs, shy and nervous dogs, a Great Dane, puppies and multi-pet households. Experience in CAT CARE: I've been cat sitting for 21 years for senior cats, cats with diabetes, cats with swimmer’s syndrome, one cat in a wheelchair, shy cats, active cats, multi-pet households, hairless cats, indoor/outdoor cats, indoor only cats, outdoor only cats & kittens. ADDITIONAL PET CARE: I also have 22 years' pet sitting experience with other pets such as hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, fresh water fish, turtles, geese and pigs. In my free time, I've rescued, rehabilitated, trained, fostered and been a pet owner to both dogs and cats in Texas, Virginia, California, Hawaii, Spain and the Kingdom of Bahrain. I have also volunteered at animal rescue and no-kill shelters in all of those places as follows: Humane Society, PAWS of Texas, Hawai'i Bird Rescue, Hawai'i Marine Animal Response, Rota Animal Welfare League Spain, and Bahrain SPCA. I am available for walking, pet/house sitting, pet care, vet visits, pet transportation and moving because I'm a full-time online university student. I have my own reliable transportation to come to you, but I do not have the availability to board animals in my residence at this time. My goal is to keep your pet(s) in their routine with the same worry-free, stress-free care as you have set up for them for walking, pet/house sitting, pet care, vet visits, pet transportation or moving. I have my own reliable transportation to come to you. I offer pet transportation in my own vehicle as well, but I do not have boarding facilities available at this time.
About: I have taken care of many dogs through out my years from small chihuahuas to Great Pyrenees. I currently own a German Shepherd, Blue Heeler and two Great Pyrenees that I love with all my heart. I have experience with many breeds and also with training dogs. I can potty train them and teach them a few discipline skills like sit and stays and also teach them funny tricks. I have always loved animals and I want to use this opportunity to experience more with animals as a future veterinarian. I believe becoming a dog sitter will help me have more experience with getting to know different dogs. I honestly believe this will be a fun experience to meet new people and their beloved pets.

About: I love all kinds of dogs and their playfull nature!I normally walk for 30 minutes or more on a regular so if your dog needs a nice walk in definitely built for it! I have access to someone that has experience dog grooming so if your dog needs a good wash I can provide that as well. I'm pretty open to request so if you need something all you have to do is ask and we can work something out. If your dog likes attention I have kids that love dogs that will help wear out any high energy dogs and I don't mind going to some open fields and having the open run around till their hearts content. I would love to create some regular customers but if you only want to try me out I'm more then ok with that!
“Was able to get a booking within a week of a trip. Was on time for all booked drop-in visits and very professional. My pups were appreciative of the company!”

“Angelica is absolutely wonderful! She really goes the extra mile taking care of my cats. She is caring and loving with my cats. I have used her for two years and wouldn't use anyone else!❤️❤️”

About: I offer specialized, low-stress care that goes beyond basic feeding and walking. Behavioral Expertise: Skilled in reading canine body language to preemptively manage stress and ensure comfort. Specialized Care: Experienced in senior care (medication, mobility support) and puppy foundation training (house-breaking, crate introduction, socialization). Professional Reliability: Consistently provide clear, detailed, and real-time updates (including photos and GPS reports) for total owner peace of mind. I deliver enriching, individualized care rather than just supervision. Would you like me to use this summary to draft a short "About Me" section for an online pet sitting profile? "My part-time status means your furry friend receives focused, extensive care throughout the day. I have plenty of time for extra walks, playtime, and one-on-one attention." My Home (Boarding): Safety: Fully dog-proofed environment with a secure, inspected fenced yard. Controlled, supervised socialization, and a private "den" space for retreat. Trust: Limited guest capacity ensures focused, one-on-one attention. Full transparency and established, swift emergency protocols. I provide consistent, personalized care to ensure both pets and owners feel secure.

About: Hello! I have interacted with dogs for most of my life and currently have three pets that I consider to be my own and is spoiled as such! I am a veteran and a current full-time student and enjoy taking walks around the neighborhood and exploring new areas. I have always had a love for all animals. I take pride in everything that I do so rest assured that your pup (or kitty) will be in good hands. There are multiple trails and parks in the area that I would be happy to take your dog to. My own dog is high-energy so I take multiple walks throughout the day and have multiple toys and treats that he doesn't mind sharing :) If your dog is a couch potato, that's ok too! I am flexible to the needs of the individual. Currently working part time from Thurs-Sun in the evenings and am only gone 5 hours. Once school starts back up I will only be working part-time Friday and Saturday. I let my own dogs roam free. I do have a cat and the litter box is in my closet so if your pet likes getting into things they would only be allowed in the living room. I can take dogs that are not cat-friendly as I have family that could take the cat for those days. I take direction from clients if I am visiting their home.
“April went above and beyond to easily adjust to our changing schedule. She was great at communicating with me and sent the cutest pics of our fur babies. I will definitely be using her again! Highly recommend!”

About: With over 15 years of experience in private pet sitting and personal dog ownership, I have a deep love and sense of consideration for animals. For two years, I have been dedicated to providing high-quality care through Rover, building a reputation for reliability and attentiveness. Pet care is my only commitment, so I am available for those that need more than the technical pet sitting: drop ins through the day and stay overnight. I have stayed with elder pups who could not be alone longer than 1-2 hours. So, I can be as available within my bookings as much as I am needed. Outside of pet care, I lead a quiet, home-centered lifestyle. This translates perfectly into attentive overnight care for animals that thrive in a peaceful, calm environment. Pet care is my sole professional commitment, allowing me to be fully present for your companions. My long-term goals include finding community through pet-related events, pursuing volunteer opportunities, and eventually establishing my own dedicated care business. Everyone receives specialized interaction suited to their personality and energy level: For dogs, activities often include decompression/sniff walks, backyard play, and relaxed companionship like porch sitting or quiet couch time. High-energy pets receive engaging play and mental stimulation, while seniors or sensitive dogs receive slower, confidence-building interaction and low-stress movement. For cats, there could be wand play, chase-and-capture sessions, window or bird watch enrichment, brushing (if enjoyed), and calm social time on their terms. Between activities, I prioritize rest and normal household rhythm so no one is overstimulated or unsettled. I also maintain the cleanliness of pet areas and keep the home secure and lived-in (for overnights/extended stays).
“Such a great experience! They were so easy to communicate with and kept me updated, which I really appreciated. Most importantly, they took amazing care of my dog and treated them like their own. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
