Great with my pup! Warren has great communication and gives detailed updates about their walking adventures. He even cleaned Achilles up after a tromp through the mud before letting him back in the house! Will definitely continue their walks, Achilles is always one happy doggo when he gets home.

Ashley was great with my pup! She came over last minute when I couldn't find anyone to walk Ellie on Thanksgiving. She is very responsive and punctual. Thanks Ashley!

About: Been feeling stressed about your dog cooped up at home? Want your cat to judge a new caretaker in their life? Look no further! I come from an agriculture background, which has allowed me to care for all kinds of pets. Most importantly, I’ve cared for cats & dogs during all their life stages. From puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats — I know what it takes to administer love and care during all developmental stages of life! My heart is full when I get to see either a happy dog tail-wag or a purrfectly content cat make biscuits. I’ll work with your dog to improve their commands and get their daily zoomies out; your cat will enjoy company and stimulating feline friendly games. I’ll also have their bathroom and medical needs taken care of. I make sure to provide a safe environment for everyone. I will care for your pet according to your instructions. If I am at your home, I will abide by your house rules and care for your pet accordingly. I have a flexible schedule, so I can work with your schedule to best serve your family! At this time I am not hosting animals in my home. I will do house visits and walks. I prefer to take your pet on routes they are familiar with to start. After getting to know your pet, I can take them on walks in new environments to encourage new training opportunities. Please disclose if your pet has ever been aggressive or experiences severe anxiety behaviors. I want to provide a safe environment for your fur baby and myself by being aware of any sensitivities or triggers. Your pet will receive top care while being set-up for success when spending time with me! Book with me & I’ll help make your life a little less stressful — your pet has a friend in me! I have a very flexible schedule and can take care of your pets in the afternoon or evenings during Monday-Friday. With ample notice, I can even take care of your pet in the mornings Monday-Friday. On weekends, I can take care of your pet at any time! I’ll make sure to provide a safe environment for everyone. I will care for your pet according to your instructions. If I am at your home, I will abide by your house rules and care for your pet accordingly. Your pet will be safe and cared for in my care.

About: I have puppy sat for a couple years now. I love all animals and I’m very physically fit to take care of them. I can’t have a puppy of my own right now so I love taking care and spending time with them when I can. I’m available 24/7 right now. Animals can’t stay at my place, but I am free to stay with them overnight or whatever is needed. I can stay weekends as well. I can stay with the Dog/pup 24/7. I can stay overnight, take them on walks, any kind of care that is needed I can take care of.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was young—dogs/puppies and cats. Very patient with younger animals or with more energy that require more attention and/or more technical care. I have a flexible schedule that allows the ability to stop in throughout the day. Available most weekends, early evenings and flexible throughout the day. With extensive experience with petsitting I’m very skilled in sensing the time needed and patience to build trust and a comfortable space and presence for one’s pets.

Katy has been great with my dog, Scruff. He needed a ton of patience starting out and she worked with him to get him used to a dog walker. He actually got a little grumpy with me one day when I stayed home sick and she didn’t come.

About: Ever since I was young I've taken care of dogs, cats, ferrets, and birds at younger ages as well! I bond very well with animals and I treat them like they're a human too, it's instinct. I always wanted what's best for animals because they can't talk so I want to be their voice and opinion for them! I will be avaialble and open Monday-Sunday, so I'll have lots of time to tend to many furry companions! I work part-time for the time being but am open to expanding my schedule! I can easily meet each owners needs on their companions! If you need anything in particular just let me know and I'll accommodate to each individual!

Lindsey was so great with my puppy. She took care of him twice a day for multiple days and was always right on time, never giving me a doubt about the care he was in. She also sent pictures and updates each time. Thanks so much!!

About: I love all animals, with proper direction I’m positive I can give adequate care to any and all animals and ensure their safety and health. I work full time with a nonprofit organization downtown that helps unhoused youths. My schedule is Sunday through Thursday from 2:30 pm - 10:30. My days off are Friday and Saturday. I can take one break depending on the how far the location is from my work to give a potty break. In my free time I’m devoted to whatever may come and is needed for any and all pets ❤️ I’ve worked with the state for most of my adult life and always have passed a background check. My resume includes elderly care, hospital healthcare, in home healthcare, and most recently three years as a domestic violence/homeless shelter advocate with a non profit organization in rural Alaska. I’ve had animals my entire life and enjoy the company of all! I have experience with not only cats and dogs but fish, rodents and reptiles as well. I am open and eager to learn and care for all different kinds of animals and am confident in my abilities to do so with adequate information from the pet parents.

About: I have been an animal lover my whole life. I have a pup of my own and have owned dogs and a variety of small and farm animals. I have worked as a dog trainer and volunteer at the vet and rescues. I am very active so long walks or runs are my favorite and I have a soft spot for old animals. I communicate very well. The standards I have for the care of my pets is exceptionally high and I provide that same experience for every pet I take care. I currently work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. I am available to do check ins or walks multiple times a day, if needed, and also have weekend availability. I am a big fan of communication(and photos!) but am trustworthy and reliable enough that you can also be out of service and rely on me to take care of things.

Sharika is great with my 5-month old Samoyed puppy who can be very disobedient and stubborn at times. She is incredibly accommodating in terms of walk times, and is flexible which I sincerely appreciate. Would recommend Sharika 100%!

About: My name is Aubrie. I’ve had pets my entire life and for the past three years, I’ve started caring for others in addition to my own. I have experience caring for dogs with special needs, and of all different sizes and breeds. I’m not currently working, so my full time job would be caring for your pet! Daycare drop off and pickup hours are between 7 am and 7 pm. Any time after 7 pm would need to be booked as boarding and pickup for the following morning. I offer extended stays as well. I live in an apartment with the dog park on my same floor, so lots of running around and play time staying here with me and my pet! He is very social and loves to have company, friendly to other dogs and shares toys.

About: **I travel a lot so don’t let my profile location deter you! I’ve travelled all over to sit and also travel on my own and am willing to use any excuse to travel :) I'm a professional, fun, and responsible traveling sitter! I've been petsitting for over 20 years now and have loved every minute of it! Several years ago I quit my corporate job to be able to travel and pet sit. I've been so fortunate that I've been able to travel all over the country spending time with incredible pets! I am enjoying the freedom of life so I'm willing to travel all over the US to petsit, so message me about sitting, no matter where you are located! As well as dogs and cats, I have cared for chickens, rabbits, birds, reptiles, small rodents, and horses. What started as a "favor" to a coworker, has turned into over 2 decades of happiness, fun, and adventures in pet and house sitting! I have been highly sought after for my services and have even been flown around the country to care for pets. I love dogs and cats and completely understand how important it is to make them feel safe and loved while their family is away. I'm also well versed in what it takes to keep a house running while owners are away. I happily take care of any chores, ranging from tending of gardens to mail pickup. The care level I’ve given has varied from puppy house training, to older pets requiring advanced medical treatment. I have also volunteered and fostered with animal rescue for over 15 years, so I have dealt with a variety of dog behavioral issues. I've fostered dogs ranging from 4 week old bottle fed puppies to dogs recovering from traumatic surgeries. I'm a clean, respectable, and responsible adult. I'm a non-smoker, non-drug user, and non-drinker. I keep a very clean house and am always respectful of my surroundings. I'm friendly, patient, caring, gentle, and get along with everyone - human and non-human :) I love being out in nature and being active, but also don't mind spending time with those pets who just enjoy lounging around the house. I like to have a "meet and greet" prior to any commitments, to ensure that you and your pets are comfortable with me, and I'm able to provide what everyone needs. I care for pets in my client’s home in the manner that the clients and pets expect. If they are used to walks, they get walks. If they enjoy pool time, they get pool time. If they typically sleep on the bed with a human, they get that :) I’m all about what the pets are typically used to and enjoy! I do small amounts of work online, have to help out with family and friends in the area on occasion, and do have some drop-in and walking clients, but besides those small commitments, my time is dedicated to the animals I’m caring for. I’m all about the pet’s schedule and can usually accommodate it very well! I care for pets in the client’s home in hopefully the same manner they do! I want to learn and follow the pets’ routines and schedules so that clients returning home have a flawless transition.

About: I’m a dog parent of a 3 yo husky mix who keeps me busy. She’s more social than I am, & most days, I’m chasing her around trying to keep up. I like to bike, ski, and play in the mountains, and it’s pretty easy to add another pet into the mix of our high energy lifestyle. Dog sitting was my first job, and I’ve had great experiences with Rover as a pet parent & a sitter I work full time, but I take an hour lunch break every day for dog walks. A typical day starts with a 30 min walk in the morning, 45 mins at lunch, and another 30-60 mins in the evenings. Love to take the dogs hiking, or out to one of the beaches in town, or up on a hiking trail. I have a friendly dog at home, & I require a meet & greet before overnight stays to make sure the personalities work together. Please bring a crate with you if your pet is used to having their own. Please also bring or identify whatever toys, treats, comfort items they can’t live without.

Paulina did so great with our pups! Finding a dog lover we can trust is hard when you think no one can love your pup the way you do. I highly recommend her services if your pet needs love, care, playtime, or just a walk when you can't be there! She also took the most adorable pictures and sends us detailed messages! I will be booking again with Paulina!
