Shaina was a great help while I was away on vacation. I had peace of mind knowing she was there to handle daily walks. She kept me updated daily and I know Munch looked forward to his walks with her too! Thanks Shaina!

Jake has recently started doing daily walks with my girl Flower (and was her sitter once before), and he is awesome. Always on time, super flexible with changes, and Flower absolutely loves him!

About: I grew up with cats but have rescued many cats and dogs over the years. I've rescued kittens, adults, and senior animals alike. I have loved many pets through old age, administer medicine, and loved them beyond their last breath. I currently have 3 cats and 1 dog. I am a teacher who is off in the summer time. My schedule is flexible through August. During the school year, I am available on the weekends. I have rescued many animals, helping them get acclimated to their new setting. I rescued a half-atarvwd kitten, keeping her in a separate room for months, giving her special care until she thrived. I have had senior pets and cared for a cat and dog through cancer, administering medicine. I have rescued a dog applying the 3-3-3 rule. I currently have a special needs cat who needs medicine twice a day.

Nikki was our best rover booking yet!!! She came over three times this week for lunchtime walks. She was super attentive and even gave us some recommendations on how to keep him entertained. Nikki is very knowledgeable and caring, especially with little puppies. Would highly recommend booking her.

Brianna always goes above and beyond for my pup Venture. She put some paw balm on and carried him down the stairs outside so he wouldnt get salt on his paws. I would definitely recommend you book with her.

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my personalized approach, adaptability, and specialized skills. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from training puppies with patience and consistency to providing gentle care for senior pets with unique health needs. My focus on building trust with both pets and owners ensures peace of mind. Additionally, I prioritize clear communication and tailor routines to meet each pet’s emotional and physical needs, creating a safe, loving environment. My dedication to treating every pet like family truly sets me apart. Pet care fits into my routine through dedicated time blocks for feeding, walks, play, and grooming. Mornings often begin with feeding and walks, ensuring pets start their day energized. Midday or evening, I schedule additional walks and interactive play sessions to keep them active and mentally stimulated. Weekly tasks include grooming, restocking supplies, and maintaining their living spaces. I integrate these responsibilities seamlessly into my schedule to provide consistent and attentive care, ensuring their needs are always prioritized. Caring for pets involves tailored routines based on the pet’s needs and owner preferences. This includes providing regular walks for exercise and fresh air, ensuring proper feeding schedules, maintaining clean living spaces, and offering companionship to keep pets emotionally healthy. Whether at home or in a client’s residence, I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency, treating each pet with love and respect as if they were my own.

About: I don’t have much experience with dogs if I’m being honest. The only experience I had with a dog was with a baby pitbull and that was for about a year. That being said, despite my lack of experience I am willing to learn. My love for animals in general is why I am open to learning. I will still provide the same love, care and affection for a dog as I would a cat. My daily and weekly routine is very open for pet care. I am currently on maternity leave so I have lots of availability throughout my days. I treat them like their family and not strangers or “just for the money type of thing”. If the client has special requests as far as how they would want their pet taken care of, I would follow those requests and update the clients along the way.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets ever since I was a kid! My neighbors relied on me to go over to feed, walk, and play with their dogs when they were our of town. I’m currently working a part time job, so I tend to have plenty of time to dog walk! My schedule varies week by week, so I tend to be flexible and can be available at different times! When walking your dog, I will always make sure they have their collar and/or harness on, and anything else they may need during a walk! Making sure we walk in a safe, nice environment that is pet friendly is also extremely important.

This is the second time Lauren has taken care of cooper (both times on short notice) and I’m happy we have someone we can trust when we go out of town to take care of our fur baby! She’s attentive and sends pictures to us, keeping us up to date on how he’s eating and just doing in general. Definitely recommend lauren to take care of your fur babies! ?

About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life. My family has cared for many breeds of dogs including a Rottweiler, Great Dane, German Shepherd, Yorkie, and Chihuahua.

I am currently a college student and will have lots of time to spend time with your pet. I am available in the afternoon/night and all day on the weekends.

While providing services at your home, my focus and priority will be on your pet as if they were my own.

About: I first started dog sitting when I was just 9 years old. It was the first job I ever had and it has continued to be a love of mine throughout my life. I come from a family that treats their pets like family and have plenty of love to offer your pet. My mom often dogsat when I was growing up, so I'm terrific with animals that aren't already familiar with me. I am also an active runner and have plenty of energy to keep up with even the most enthusiastic pet and would enjoy taking your beloved pet on lengthy runs and walks if to their liking. When it comes to reliability I have several years of customer service background and have a solid resume to back me up. I have a flexible full-time job. Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday I have the most availability. The rest of the week I am available only in the mornings before 9am and then again any time after 5pm. I can also do quick/flexible lunch break work as well around 12pm. I have my own car and am available to travel and take trips to surrounding parks or for long walks. I am also open to staying at a residence for the day Sun-Tues.

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs and routines. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies who need extra playtime and consistency to senior pets who may require a gentler pace, medications, or additional attention. I’m happy to follow specific feeding schedules, administer oral medications, provide walks and enrichment, and send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. As a part-time nanny during the summer, I already maintain a structured and flexible schedule, which makes it easy for me to fit pet care in throughout the day and week. I’m typically available in the mornings, evenings, and weekends, and I plan my pet visits or walks around my childcare responsibilities. I’m very organized and reliable, so I make sure pet care is never rushed or overlooked. I can provide consistent feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins before or after my nanny shifts, as well as on days I’m not working. I enjoy staying active and being on a routine, so incorporating pet care into my weekly schedule is something I’m able to do smoothly and consistently. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to help the pet feel comfortable and secure. I make sure to stick to feeding schedules, provide fresh water, give regular walks or potty breaks, and spend quality time playing and giving attention based on the pet’s needs and energy level. I also keep the home tidy and respect all instructions regarding the pet’s care and environment.
