About: Ever since I was a kid, I’ve always really loved animals. Growing up we always had a cat, and spent a lot of time around my grandparents dog (shepherd mix). Additionally, the last 6 years I’ve enjoyed petsitting for my sister and taking her dog (Husky-Alaskan malamute mix) on hikes. In the past I’ve walked my friend’s dog (border collie/australian shepherd mix) on a weekly basis. I love going for long walks, and am open to take dogs for walks for 30 minutes up to 2 hours (~ 6 miles). For the past 1.5 years, I’ve been volunteering at an animal rescue a few days a week. Even though I mostly take care of cats there, I do come in contact with the dogs as well. I’m a European physical therapist, currently studying to get my American PT license. In other words, my schedule is extremely flexible to cater to your and your pets’ needs. I do volunteer at an animal rescue a couple days a week, but my hours there are flexible. I currently do not accept pets into my own home for my own pets’ safety. However, I will always closely follow any given instructions about your pets’ care at your home, to make this experience as positive as possible for both you and your pet(s).
“Laura is perfect! She has such a nice personality, she arrives on time, feeds our kittens and plays with them. She gave us daily updates with pictures while we were on vacation to let us know everything was going well. We will definitely have Laura watch our kittens again!”

About: Although i don’t have extensive experience with training i love spending time with my furry, four legged friends. I enjoy playing outside and teaching them new things. I would love to meet and see if me and your dog could be a good fit! I work part time in the IT field and I’m looking for something to fill my time within the week that could not only be something i enjoy but also make some extra money! I currently live in a 2 bedroom house with my dog Marshall. He is a one year old Australian shepherd and loves all dogs and humans. Marshall is crate trained and we have a good size fenced in back yard.
“Hannah was an absolute Joy to work with! She was amazing at communicating via updates and photos of my lil guy and she made sure to stop in and meet my pet face to face before sitting. She is patient and caring and won't shy away from any accidents your pet my have. My cat loved her and I'm sure other animals will too!”

“We had a great experience using Rover for the first time with Erin as our sitter! She did everything my husband and I requested. She has a true passion for animals. We received updates on what went on during the drop in visits as well as photos of our pups every visit. The dogs looked so happy! It was great to see them happy even though we were not home. Plus we enjoyed seeing the photos when we missed them. Absolutely recommend Erin for your pet sitting needs!”
About: I've worked with animals off all kinds, ages, sizes, and requirements since I was 10. Everyone i know comes to me for pet help/care. I take a special intrest in training. I currently have a border collie mix who i practice sports such as agility and bikjoring. She also love trick training and obedience training. I was in a vet course in high school for two years so I've got plenty of experience with all sizes and species of animals. There i learn how to give oral medication, signs of parasites/disease, dog body language and the importance of mental & physical stimulation that sent me on my way to being a dog nerd. My job has me working weekends during the slow season and being an active person I need something to fill my off time. So I have Monday- Thursday to work with your schedule. I have worked with reactive animals as well as own one so im exceptional at dog body language and i focus on making a dogs walk/Visit as stress-free as possible. My experience with reactive dogs helps me stay patient and calm in stressful situations.
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to senior companions who need a little extra patience and care. I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life and understand their changing needs, routines, and personalities. Friends have trusted me to care for their pets while they’re away, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is always to provide loving, reliable, and stress‑free care so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I am currently available mid-morning through early evening to care for your pets needs. Additional availability can be requested at any time. Offering in home pet care for small dogs. I have a fenced in yard to keep your pets safe. I also have a crate available, if needed. They will be given walks, snuggles, food, water, medications if needed and lots of love!
“Kayti is amazing! She is supper attentive, knowledgeable, dependable and dedicated. She really does go the extra mile and puts her heart into it. I feel so good knowing my baby is in great hands! I couldn’t of asked for a better sitter!”

“Process was super easy. Megan responded very quickly right from the start and throughout the stay. We worked out an arrangement I think we were both happy with. She is very friendly and has such an honest and reliable demeanor that I immediately felt comfortable leaving my pooches in her care. Megan sent pictures and little update messages with almost every visit so I could see that my pups were safe and happy. GREAT experience and I would definitely book with Megan again in the future.”

“Nikki did a great job watching my dog so I could go get my hair done. She has a very calm demeanor about her when it comes to dogs and that’s exactly what my dog needed. I would recommend Nikki!”
About: I have personally owned cats, dogs, horses, cows, chickens, guinea pigs, hamsters, and there are very few animals that I’m *not* comfortable with. I have raised bully breeds from bottles, and I have a ton of experience with large dogs as well as small. I’m not allergic to any animals- and I love snuggling and playing. I’m a super calm person and I think animals feed off of our energy. I work full time from home and have quite a bit of flexibility as I can do my job from anywhere with an internet connection. I have a fenced yard- but as I’ll be more likely to watch your animals in your home, I’m flexible. I’m an active person, and a true animal lover. We can customize what your pet needs from me. I’m a special needs mom, and I have a crazy amount of patience.
About: I've had dogs my whole life growing up and have had them into my adult life. I dog sit for a friend now on a regular basis. I work part-time doing hair during the week. I now work on the weekends at doubletree, so my availability is limited now. But ask and see if we can work something out! I'd be happy to dog sit if I can! I have a nice sized fenced in yard for your dog to run and play. My dog loves to meet new friends! I can also go to your house and let your dog(s) out and take them for walks if needed! I have a separate room to crate also if need be.
About: Hi! I’m Eva, an 18 year old college student. I currently have 2 dogs, a 9 year old cocker spaniel and a 1 year old chocolate lab. I have always loved taking care of animals ranging from dogs, birds, cats and bunnies. Taking care of my dogs really became a big role in my life once I adopted my cocker spaniel from a shelter when he was 5 years old. From there I worked with him to eventually get a chocolate lab puppy, I have trained him to walk properly on a leash and do all types of tricks! Those two have became my babies, I love all dogs and would love to take care of yours. I’m currently working a part-time job at a restaurant while also taking care of my dogs. Other than that I have a free schedule, especially later in the day! I prefer to come a clients home, I love working away from home and taking your dogs out for walks or to the park or just watching babysitting them in your home!

I hired Samantha to feed and walk my two puppies while I was at work during the weekdays. Puppies received excellent care, she tended to their needs as I care for them. Samantha sent pictures and text updates throughout the process. I am going to recommend her to friends and family.
