“Jennifer was wonderful with my pack! She kept in contact and sent me pictures of them during her stay. I was in Germany and was concerned in case anything unforseen happened, but my pups were well taken care of! Highly recommend Jennifer!”


About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals since I was 10, including dogs, cats, parrots, chickens, and horses, and have some dog training experience. I just graduated from college, so I have a relatively free schedule as I transition, and would love to dedicate that time to animal care! I make sure I am very attentive when seeing what the pet needs, and I make sure to accommodate for whatever recommendations my clients would like to see being done. I also have a flexible schedule and can work around whatever is needed for them to remain happy and healthy.

About: I’m usually the first person my family calls when they need someone to care for their cutie pets while they’re away. As a grad student and pet owner myself, I understand the emotional support that animals can provide! Pets are family members and I understand what it takes to look after family. I send daily photo updates and report back any information requested. I have experience maintaining training schedules for puppies. I’m diligent at following care plans and requests. Overall, I truly to enjoy connecting with animals and their owners alike! Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and considering me. I’m currently working towards my graduate degree and have a flexible daily schedule. I am able to stop by routinely (in between classes or internship commitments) to take care of your pet! I am available most weekends and weekdays. My schedule is subject to change in a few weeks with the start of a new semester. My goal is to continue the quality of care that your pet is used to. I want to reduce the amount of stress they might experience in the absence of their loving owner(s)! Keeping their routine as similar as possible is key. Meal times, walk times, crate/no crate, on/off furniture, treats, etc. are all things I try to attend to. I am open to specific requests your pet might need!

About: I have watched beloved family pets for many friends and family during my life time. Being an animal lover myself, I know that your pets are family and I make sure to treat them as such! Growing up with family dogs and cats, and currently our funky boxer dog Rufus, I know what it takes to be a successful animal sitter and how much love they need. I work a full time job, from 9-4:30 pm Monday-Friday with the exception of one remote day on Wednesdays. Most pets are used to this schedule. I will ensure they will have potty breaks first thing in the morning, during my lunch break at 1, and then once I return to the home at 5. And then several throughout the evening and before bed. I will care for your pet in the environment they feel the safest in… your home. By allowing your animal to remain at home, it eases their stress and anxiety and gives them a comforting feel of familiarity. No need to pack up enough food and treats for the week. I will be happy to follow your thorough instructions on how to care for your pet.


“Aubrey is wonderful with Zero my 92 lb German Shepherd! She always arrives on time and did 2 meet and greets before to get to know him. She handles larger dogs with ease and is always aware of surroundings while walking him. Zero does not like many people. Zero warmed up to her in about 10 mins the first time, 2 mins the 2nd time and he was immediately her friend the next. This is unheard of with Zero. I am so thankful she was not intimidated and I could clearly tell the 1st time meeting her she loves dogs. She had the pack leader mentality which u need with Zero and won him over quickly. I will continue to use Aubrey she is trustworthy and dependable. She stayed at the house and treats my house as if her own. Having her watch Zero allows me to be gone without worry. I am so thankful I connected with her on Rover. She takes care of my dog just like her own. She is a top notch dog sitter!!”


About: Ive had my own Doggy Babies and taken care of doggies for 20 years!! Friends and family have relied on me to walk, bathe, sit overnight and care for their pets. Im currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with your pups!! Ive always loved doggies and love to play and have fun or just sit and chill together!! I have a fenced in yard where our doggies run and play. We have one small guy named Cooper. And one medium girl named Sage. Cooper is Morkie (maltese-yorkie) and LOVES every other animal and humans. Sage is mixed breed and is so gentle and little shy till she gets to know you

About: I am a very dedicated person who strongly believes in giving each animal the attention they deserves. My approach goes beyond just caring for pets; I love spending time with them, playing, and offering the companionship they need to feel safe and happy. I have been lucky enough to grow up surrounded by animals, which has allowed me to learn from them and better understand their needs and emotions. I dedicate specific times each week for deep cleaning, grooming, and any special activities like extra playdates or outings, ensuring each pet’s well-being is always a priority. Pet care isn’t just a job for me; it’s a lifestyle. It’s about building a strong bond of trust and offering them the best care, whether it’s a regular walk or just spending time together. When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to provide a seamless experience where your pets feel safe, secure, and loved in the comfort of their own space. I take extra care to respect your home and your pet’s routine, ensuring minimal disruption. Here’s how I approach it: Maintaining Routine, Personalized Care, Safety & Comfort, Clean & Tidy, and others.

About: I've looked after dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and sizes, from mini Dachshunds to Great Danes, and from young puppies to achy old dogs. I'm a full time student at Indiana University Bloomington, so I'll need to be within travelling distance of Bloomington and allowed time for my classes during the school year. How I care for your dog depends entirely on how I'm told to, I'm adaptable and can fit to pretty much any schedule or routine your dog is accustomed to.

About: Trustworthy and reliable! I’ve always been someone that my friends and neighbors could leave their pets with and expect them to be properly taken care of. I own two dogs, Bear and Elli, that I travel full with full time. We have landed back in Bend in search of a more permanent home. Elli is a firecracker of force when it comes to chasing down and catching a frisbee! She has a huge personality and huge tongue!! Bear is a “tug-a-holic” that would pull me into next week if given the opportunity! We usually will take the dogs on walks and perform some kind of training criteria at least twice a day. As I am eager to dive fully into dog training, I felt it necessary to get my hands on more dogs to better understand the needs and interests of each dog in my care. I am looking forward to being of service to you and your beloved pets! I currently have two dogs, a 4yr old German Shepherd and a 2yr old Belgian Malinois, so dog care and advanced training is a daily activity. Playtime and training look very similar in our life. My dogs are fully house and crate trained with stellar recall and obedience skills. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize their comfort, routine, and well-being. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique needs, from feeding schedules to favorite activities, ensuring they feel safe and secure while their owner is away. I maintain a calm and structured environment, providing enrichment, playtime, and plenty of affection (if they enjoy it!). I also have experience with training reinforcement, medication administration, and managing multiple pets in a household. Cleanliness and respect for my client’s home are equally important to me—I always leave things as I found them. My goal is to make each pet’s time with me stress-free and enjoyable so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away!

“Heidi is a wonderful pet sitter. She always communicates quickly and efficiently and is very considerate. I highly recommend her for any pet services she offers”


Karlie P.
“Karlie is very sweet and we call her the dog whisperer at our house!!! Our Rottweiler’s instantly made up with her and was her best friend! She loved my dogs like her own and were very well taken care of! Communication was great with her and she even sent me pictures daily of them to ease my mind. Usually when we are gone they are so excited to see us when we get home but this time I knew how well they were taken care of because it was like any other day after work excited. I would recommend her to any family or friends and will definitely use her again!”
