About: I've cared for a wide range of animals—dogs, cats, fish, chickens, rabbits, turtles, ducks, and hamsters. With years of experience, I understand and respond to each pet's unique needs, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I'm excited to treat your pets with the same care as my own. I'm flexible with pet care on weekdays and weekends, fitting it into my hybrid work schedule. While September and February are busier due to work travel, my current availability is up to date. Let’s connect and see if I’m a good match for your pet care needs! When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize their routines and comfort. I follow your specific instructions to ensure your pet feels safe and secure. My goal is to make the experience stress-free for both your pet and you. To build trust and ensure safety, I request a brief discussion about your pet's needs and routines. If possible, I'd love to schedule a meet-and-greet, but I'm happy to provide services even if that's not an option.

About: I've had dog(s) my entire life and have two perfect angels of my own now. I love playing, snuggling and spoiling all doggos. My sister is an experienced Vet Tech, and she's on call at all times in case anything were to go wrong. She also lives around the corner if a visit is needed. My yard is fenced in with a doggie door for true puppy freedom, and I'm within walking distance to the dog park. Growing up around tons of pets and veterinarians, I'm experienced in tendencies and temperaments of dogs and good about picking up on how they're feeling/reacting. From toys to treats to tummy rubs, I'll make your dog feel right at home! I can be as strict or as lenient on diet/exercise as you need. Your pup won't miss a beat!

Anika clearly cares so much about dogs. Before booking my dog in for daycare, she wanted to meet with us to see if our dogs were a good fit together. I really appreciated her taking the time to do that, because my dog is extremely playful and energetic and not all dogs can handle that! Knowing about a bad previous experience I had with a sitter, I feel like she took extra care to send me updates and pictures of Kaju to put me at ease. She went above and beyond in his care- taking him for walks, letting him play with her dog in the yard, and feeding him on time. I trust her completely to care for Kaju, and I know he trusts her too because he was able to take naps at her place (something that he is not always able to do due to trust issues). Anika is an exemplary dog sitter and we will be returning regularly!

My experience with Robin was exceptional. I have used another sitter through Rover before and the experience was okay, but I noticed my puppy would come home very riled up and needing to immediately decompress. It often felt like I had to calm him down and get him back to his normal baseline. With Robin, the experience was completely different. When I picked him up, he was calm, relaxed, and acting exactly like he does at home. Even during the ride back, he settled into his crate and rested. That told me he was comfortable and well cared for during his stay. I was also a little nervous about having him around other dogs since he hasn’t spent a lot of time with other puppies. Robin was incredibly patient and reassuring. She allowed me to observe and helped me feel confident that he would be just fine, and he truly was. Another thing that stood out was how much my puppy liked her right away. As soon as he got out of the car, he was excited and curious about going inside, which meant a lot to me. I’m so glad I found Robin and truly look forward to working with her again. It’s clear my puppy felt safe and comfortable in her care.

About: Hello, I’m Nick, and caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. I’ve raised my own dogs and have experience fostering, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I work from home, which means your dog will get lots of attention throughout the day—regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection. They won’t be left alone for long periods, and I make sure they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. My home is in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood with a yard for safe playtime. I’ve set everything up to be dog-friendly so you can feel confident your pet is in a safe and relaxed environment. I treat every dog like they’re my own and want you to feel completely at ease while they’re in my care. I work from home which means your pet will never be alone more than 1-2 hours, will be provided frequent potty breaks, and endless amounts of love. I live in a private neighborhood that is very animal friendly, along with a yard for your pet to run and play in. I have ensured my entire home is pet friendly and safe for your pet.

About: ✨✨ Independently Insured & Licensed ✨✨ 20 Years of Professional & Experienced Pet Care and House Sitting Services Specializing in Senior, Special Needs, and Multi-Pet Care with a Background in Veterinary Clinic Care & Animal Rescue (Fear Free Certification In Progress!) 🐶🐱🐰🐷🐔🐢🐠🐍🦎🐹 My name is Anna, and although I’m new to the Rover platform, I have professional experience working in vet clinics, rescues, and shelters, and I have more than 20 years of pet sitting and house sitting experience! I’ve dedicated my life to animals and have cared for countless animals of all kinds - dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, pigs, chickens, fish, snakes, lizards, turtles, and other exotics! After college, I gained even more professional experience beginning as a Kennel Technician before becoming a Veterinary Technician, Veterinary Surgical Technician, and eventually the Clinic Manager. After I left private veterinary practice to pursue a career in animal rescue, I served as the Manager of a successful nonprofit dog rescue. In this role, I coordinated with shelters, fosters, and adopters all while caring for 30 dogs per day and serving the public in order to rehome over 500 dogs per year. As part of my daily duties, I also arranged their veterinary care and monitored their recovery and overall wellbeing. When my own senior dogs required more care and medical attention, I pivoted to remote work with an in-home veterinary hospice service. In this role, I received emergency assessment training for many species in order to help pet parents ascertain if their pet needed emergency medical assistance. This afforded me the opportunity to hone my instincts about what constitutes an emergency, what to do in an emergency, and, more importantly, how to prevent emergencies. Throughout my career, I have remained dedicated to pets and animal welfare. I am always seeking out opportunities for continuing education, such as attending the Humane Society’s annual animal welfare conference or completing an apprenticeship at Austin Pets Alive!, or binge-watching animal training tutorials. In my personal life, I’ve had dogs, cats, reptiles and amphibians as pets ever since I was a child. As an adult, I was privileged to adopt a special needs dog named Fizzgig, who introduced me to the rewarding experience of caring for seniors. He changed my life and my heart forever, not to mention my career path. Since Fizz, I’ve had the privilege of caring for two other senior / special needs rescue dogs of my own, as well as fostering numerous seniors and special needs dogs. Though Fizzgig and my other senior have since crossed the Rainbow Bridge, I am still blessed with my 15 year old foster-fail, Sissy - the sweetest pitbull you’ll ever meet. She’s slowing down some, but she still loves her four walks a day, and she’s just a happy, playful, gentle goofball! I take pride in providing experienced, professional care, customized to your pet’s needs, and I always provide the same love and attention I’d want for my Sissy girl. You can trust that your pets will be well-cared for and well-loved with me, and I look forward to meeting y'all! SCHEDULE My day revolves around animals, and I wouldn’t have it any other way! I provide pet care full time, so my availability is flexible enough to keep your pet’s routine. In other words, your pets come first! I will administer medications on schedule, and if needed, I can also expertly coordinate care with others, including a groomer or veterinarian. I'm also comfortable monitoring animals in recovery. For vacation care, I generally prefer to schedule a minimum of three potty breaks a day not only to ensure your pet’s comfort, exercise, and stimulation, but also to preserve the dignity of your home. SERVICES Generally, I petsit by referral only to ensure I work with animal lovers whose pets are well-cared for, but a couple of my senior pet clients have crossed the rainbow bridge so I have a little more availability than usual and decided to make a Rover profile. Though my account is on the newer side, I have beaucoup references from current and former clients available upon request. I typically provide care in the client’s home to maintain routine and consistency for your pet(s), and I am currently offering drop-in visits and walks through the Rover platform. I provide boarding and doggy day care in my home and overnight care in the pet's home on a case by case basis, provided your pet gets along with my Sissy girl (you can find her bio on my profile) As Sissy and your pet’s safety is my top priority, our pets would need to meet first to ensure they are a good fit. If you require a service I'm not currently offering, please do not hesitate to reach out :)

About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs, including dog sitting for friends and neighbors and owning my own dog for the past six years. As a dog owner, I understand how stressful it can be when your dog is out of sight, so I closely supervise dogs at all times and do not allow off-leash activity or interactions with unfamiliar dogs. Safety and attentive care are always my top priorities. I work remotely during the day and attend school in the evenings, so I am only away from home for a short period, about three hours. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, timely walks, and attentive care throughout the day. I have a fenced yard and one dog in my home. Dogs are always closely supervised, kept on leash outside the yard, and never allowed to interact with unfamiliar dogs. Safety, structure, and consistency are my top priorities.

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was 5 years old, and I also have a dog of my own (Millie:)) and my Shih Tzu baby Rico I’ve helped cared for back home. I give the same care , love , patience and attentiveness to every dog ! As I know it is important for your dog to feel safe and secure away from your home 💕 Since I do have a dog of my own , the necessities are apart of my everyday routine! I am in college full time however I am free everyday after 1pm . (Tuesdays , Thursdays and the weekend I am free all day:)) I am also very flexible so please don’t hesitate to ask questions ! Please note that I can not host more than one dog at a time due to me being a smaller space. Your fur baby will feel very comfy here ! My girl Millie has adapted to our relaxed routine which involves her feeding and bathroom schedule along play time and cuddles . We take trips to the public dog park as well as my apartment one. We also have plenty of play time inside . The same goes for your baby!

I loved Lizzy but more importantly Sheldon loved Lizzie. We will both really miss the care and genuine fun Lizzy provides. Lizzy was responsible and communicative always. I never worried whem Lizzy had Sheldon in her care. And, his ears always perked up when he spotted Lizzy. I fully recommend Lizzy.
