“Ashley has done a great job with my dogs! We have 3 and she has customized her time spent with each one based on their needs & personality. She sends updates & photos of the time spent together! Very dependable & flexible with our schedule.”

About: I worked in a boarding center for dogs and cats while their owners were away. There, I had training in caring for many different breeds and sizes of dog, including giving them medications, scheduling play time and potty breaks, and walks. Friends and family all rely on me to watch their pets while they're away, and that's because I genuinely love and care for every animal I come across! I've owned animals my whole life, and right now have one cat named Roxas who I love with my whole heart. I'm self employed from home, so my schedule and availability are extremely open and flexible! Whenever you need, chances are I'll be available to watch after your fur baby! I live in a quiet, nice apartment complex. I don't have a fenced in yard, but would keep your dog leashed while out for potty breaks if boarding. I also have home security cameras installed. I value you and your pets safety and privacy!
About: CURRENT WORK SCHEDULE: MON/WED/SAT: 10am-3pm THUR: 3PM-8PM SUN: 1pm-6pm I deal with animals of all kinds and ages!

I also have worked in the pet care services for 4 years in retail. I'm a part time bather so my schedule is subject to randomly change. I can be pretty accommodating depending on what services are needed. If you're flexible I'm flexible! I keep a constant watch on all the animals I take care of. Also Keeping them occupied with toys and treats (if allowed) so they aren't looking to cause trouble.
About: Hi there! As much as I enjoy clinical therapy, I also have formal training as a vet tech and several years of experience in the field. I care strongly for cats as much as dogs, and my innate feelings of love, sensitivity, empathy and compassion make me truly happy in their presence! Even though I’ve had cats my whole life, I’m very experienced with dogs as well, in both formal and informal settings. I’m completely comfortable administering medications, giving injections (Ex: Insulin), administering fluids, taking care of sick/elderly/ICU pets, changing bandages, walking, feeding, playing with, and loving your furry friends. 💜 Please note: prices for my services are flexible for recurring services and in situations with multiple pets. My schedule is flexible and I am currently looking for part time work in the area. I will prioritize my time in order to take care of your beloved family member. I am reliable and dependable, and always put 100% of myself into caring for pets. It would be an honor to take care of yours, and you can trust that I will always do a thorough and loving job. No excuses.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience, from helping care for my aunt’s sweet Newfie mix to growing up with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I understand that every pup is unique, and I tailor to their needs; whether it’s keeping up with a high energy puppy or providing gentle support and love for senior dogs. I’m reliable, loving, and treat every dog like they’re part of the family. Your furry friend(s) will be in great hands! I have school first 3 days of the week (Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday). I’m usually busy most weekends but if you book in advance I might be able to clear up a weekend. I love pets, I’m hoping to maybe do walks and such either before or after my classes during the week. I treat every pet like my own, giving them love, attention, and care. In your home, I’ll keep them company and stick to their routine. And I will snuggle with them and play with them as much as I can.

About: My Husband and I have had pets in our family since we both could walk. We have 2 dogs and 2 cats ourselves that are treated better than many humans. We understand the struggle of finding the right fit for your babies when you need to travel and are happy to provide as many updates and pictures as needed to make sure you are comfortable with their care. For Puppies, we both have gone through the puppy phase a few times and understand their needs and chaotic tendencies. All of our animals are up to date on their shots. As a bonus, we both work from home, so your pets will get constant love and attention. We will also be happy to help with any other special care needs such as medications, special diets, brushing, teeth brushing, etc. Our animals are very used to new friends and play nice and we have a big backyard for your baby's enjoyment. If your pet stays with us, they will be loved like family! We both work from home, so, we are able to give potty breaks and enrichment breaks frequently throughout the day. Someone will always be home when we are boarding. We live in a house and have a large fenced in yard. All of our animals have their current vaccinations. We have a large Kennel for our Shepard for when we have to leave the house.
About: Hi i’m Angie- Compassionate, reliable, and enrichment-focused — that’s how I approach dog care. I’ve spent the past 20 years caring for dogs of every kind: energetic puppies, anxious rescues, seniors who need a soft place to land, confident explorers, and sensitive souls who just need a little extra time. Dogs have always been my soul mates and caring for them comes naturally to me. I started off as a veterinary assistant then went into dog training - while always caring for dogs and sometimes cat's in my home. What truly sets our care apart is how intentionally I limit it. We only host dogs from one household or family at a time. For boarding, we accept up to three dogs from the same household, and for daycare up to three dogs from the same household — and this model will never change. There is no rotating cast of unfamiliar dogs, no overcrowding, and no high-volume group care. Dogs are never forced to play, rest, or interact on a schedule that doesn’t suit them. Everything here is guided by the dog’s comfort, energy level, and emotional needs. Most importantly, when a dog is in our care, someone is physically present 24/7. Dogs are never left alone. This level of constant supervision, individualized attention, and calm presence is the foundation of our care — and the reason our rates reflect a boutique, personalized experience rather than volume-based care. I love snapping great pics of your pups! Don’t want your pet’s photos shared on social? Just say so — no problem at all! ✨Note: I can provide more testimonials of my dog sitting from customers I have had for years just not on Rover. I am just beginning on this platform. Just let me know and I'll be happy to get those for you💛 I am home full time currently and I plan my day around the dogs in my care, making sure they get consistent potty breaks, feeding times, enrichment, and attention. A typical week day I drop my son off at school and some times I'm picking up a dog before I drop him off at school or after. Or one stayed over night so they are coming with me. My day is always tailored around the dogs in my care. And my son cares just as much as I do. What can I say? We are a dog family. I always provide calm, steady supervision throughout the day and evening. Whether it’s boarding, day care, or drop-ins, I make sure each pet gets reliable care and plenty of time with me. ⭐ The dogs we host receive true 24/7 care. I is always here — this is not something I squeeze in around another job. When your dog stays with us, it’s not about fitting them into our schedule — we adjust to theirs. Dogs are never left alone, even briefly. We bring everything we need with us for house sitting as well, so your dog is never unattended in their own home. I keep you updated throughout your dog’s stay so you always know how they’re doing and can travel with peace of mind.
