About: I grew up owning and taking care of many different animals. I always wanted to be a veterinarian and went to Purdue University and graduated with a degree in Veterinary Technology. I now work for Purdue as an advisor for that program! I love animals and am very attentive and knowledgeable. I can administer medications, trim nails, etc. I will give your pets the best care possible! I work remotely (from home or anywhere) and have flexible schedule for the most part. I can work with you to fit your pets’ needs. I have a big yard, one dog, and 3 cats of my own. I take walks daily and will gladly take your dog for walks.

About: I have been taking care of animals for my whole life. I currently own two Ferret, a rat, two dogs, and two cats. I love training dogs I am actually trying to save money to start taking certifications for dog training. I am a disabled human, so I spend almost all day at home able to care for animals. Dogs will go outside to potty every 4 hours unless special instructions are given. My dog Ruger will not be around any male dogs that I watch. I will only accept to watch a dog if the owner also bring their dog a crate, their own toys, and some of the dogs food. I will not accept dogs that have any aggression.

About: I have fostered for the Greater Dayton Lab Rescue for several years. I have experience with dogs of all ages and I love them all. I am currently working two half days of week. Sometimes I go out to run a quick errand, but I am home most of the day. I have a fence in yard for the dogs to go out to play, run, and do their business. They stay in most of the time.

“Nicole took great care of my little boy, and even texted during the day. Vinny had a great time and came home happy and tired. I was so lucky to have found her on Rover, and will not hesitate to use her again. Highly recommended!!”


About: I have taken care of dogs since I was the age of 15. I myself have a year old miniature poodle named Bella. I love the challenge of training dogs to new tricks. I am available for boarding and doggy day care every week day and weekends. I take my dog out for walks every 1-2 hours for extra exercise and to relieve herself. I have an apartment that is puppy proofed. Near me there are trails and a river that I can walk your dog(s) at to entertain them with both scents and visual aspect. I do have a crate that I will be able to use if it is needed.

About: I adore animals, I missed my callling in the vet world. I have always worked with training puppies and taking care of them for two years at a Pet store and worked under a veterinarian there. I have helped with treating various illnesses in dogs from kennel cough to hypoglycemic shock. I would treat anyone's babies as my own. I have had a bad experience with a pet sitter and vow to never let a parent feel anything but ease when they are away from their pet that is family! I work a remote job with flexible hours. I am thankful to be able to help others not worry about their fur babies when gone! My house has a large fenced in yard. I have two friendly dogs! I crate my dogs at night and when I leave but I would follow instructions on how to take care of your pet in my home or yours!

About: I have had at least one dog since I was a little girl. I have 17 years of experience training dogs, and 2 years of grooming. I own Keno's Legacy KR Dog Training & Grooming LLC. Legacy is named after two of my dogs Keno, my Red Heeler I had for 13 years, and KR stands for Karma Rein one of my 7 current dogs. Owning this business is my dream it's my passion, and my goal is to help people enjoy their dogs, get the knowledge, and care they need all in one place. Caring for pets is what I do, whether it's my own dogs, client's dogs, or strays that need a safe place to stay, we love them all the same. My house has a 6ft privacy fence that isn't accessible from the outside of the fence. Safety is our number 1 priority always, and our house is setup with that priority. We also try our best to provide as much of their normal routine as we can while their with us. If your dog is allowed on your couch or bed, they're allowed on ours. We try to make your pet feel as at home as we can while they stay with us. I own a dog training and grooming business so boarding fits in perfectly. My team that helps make it possible to provide great care for the dogs consists of myself, my husband Josh, and our good friend and employee Mike. Having 3 people to care for the dogs means that the dogs are rarely without someone present, and if so that is usually only long enough for us to be taking dogs out for walks or play times. We try to make the dog that is staying with me as at home as possible by maintaining their normal schedules the owner has them on as much as we can. We also expect the same things from them their owners would, so they aren't confused or doing something the owner doesn't desire when they return to get their dog.

About: I love every animal like my very own. I am able to do daily drop ins while you’re at work, or watch them while you’re away on vacation. I have experience in all sizes and breeds of dogs, cats, reptiles, and fish. I also have experience in dispensing oral medicine always on time. I will spend lots of time with your pet and make sure they are mentally and physically engaged (tailored to each pet) and make sure that they feel safe while you’re away. I started out 8 years ago sitting for family, which grew into their friends, church members, and their friends. I have many client references, veterinarian references, and past employer references (dog salon). My regular job is gig work, which means building my own schedule. Which also means I can be home more often with your pet while they are in my care. :) You can always trust your pet with me. I know it’s hard to be away from them while you’re gone, so I promise to provide you with updates/photos/videos every day. I like to keep my environment calm and quiet. I will always respect your home and your space, and I will always respect your pet and their space.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was kid. To me they are like family and should be treated with love. I have 3 of my own that I've had since they were puppies. I'm currently working part time so I'm using my extra time to help others with their fur babies. I'm home most of the time so I can give them extra attention. My back yard is fenced in. I have dog crates available if they need it. Tons of toys and treats too. Clean and bug free home.

About: I'm 30. I have had dogs all my life. I've trained since age 8(in 4h and then as an adult) I've trained service dogs, search and rescue. Protection training, basic obediance, conformation, fastcat, dock diving.... dogs are my life other than my other half and our girls! I work a couple hours a day. I train dogs daily. I'd love to help if somebody needs a sitter(I cannot stay the night as I have a toddler) but I can go let dogs out as many times a day as needed. Not afraid of messes. Dogs are my life I crate my dogs and introduce slowly. Dogs don't get rushed. We live for the dogs! I take the dogs seriously. And their needs come first!

“1st time having daycare with Whitley and I couldn’t be happier or more comfortable with my girls enjoying their day. Great photos and videos shared through the day and they both slept all the way home in the car- perfect!”


About: I’ve grown up on farms with many animals to include dogs and have raised them since I was young. Can’t wait to introduce myself to your fur baby’s and give them the love that they show us every day 😄 I’m currently in between jobs so my hours are flexible for your needs, always up for the exercise for a run or walk with your animals 😁 Currently only have a cat in a studio apartment so no space for a dog. My dog is back home in Ohio with my parents as I have no space here for him right now.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a child. I am always the first person friends and family call to take care of their dog’s because of how much I love animals and they know they can trust me to treat them the same as I would my own dogs. I have two dogs at home one is a Labrador retriever and the other is a Yorkshire terrier. I don’t currently have any other work so I am available throughout the day. I can come take care of your pet/pets during the school day while my 8-year-old son is at school. I've had dogs and cats my entire life. I can’t imagine a life without a pet. I will treat your fur babies as if they are my own. Our pets are our family and they should be treated that way!

About: I’ve taken care of many different breeds and ages of dogs! I love all animals and have the time to care for multiple at this time. I have experience with administering medication, oral or injections. I have experience with all ages puppy- senior. I currently am just babysitting and dog sitting so I will be home all day as of now! I am available almost all days / times! Just need a little bit of a notice. :) Whenever my friends need a dog sitter I am the first they call because they know how well their dogs will be taken care of! I am an animal lover and treat them as I would a baby. I love walks and time outside and lots of snuggles on the couch!
