“Michelle was fantastic! Will definitely use her again.”

About: I have always been an animal lover. Since my teenage years we had dogs and cats in the house. Over the last 20 years I have lived with and cared for 2 dogs and two cats. Sadly at this point they have all passed on of old age, so I would be especially happy to spend time caring for your animals. I am only employed on a very part time basis, so I have a fairly open and flexible schedule for dog walking, home visits and boarding on most weekdays, and some weekends. I have a fenced back yard perfect for pets to hang out in, and there is also a covered area in the back yard if the weather is rainy. I would also allow them inside the house, but not on furniture :). I am a very active person, I walk my own dog at least twice a day, and would be happy to walk even more with yours!

About: Hi! My schedule will be tailored to yours. I am very flexible and willing to do services with little prior heads up. Just message me for whatever you need and I will make it work. Ive taken care of dogs, cats and other animals since i was very young. There has always been some sort of animal in my house hold whether thats a small dog, a big dog, a couple of cats, birds or guinea pigs. My relationship with my animals has always been a mutual respect for each other without any issues in the past with authority which is due to my training and conditioning with my animals. I’ve made my home a safe and loving environment for my animals with their best interests considered first with daily physical and mental stimulation with fun games and walks as well as nutritious diets containing real food. I’d love to get to know your pup and take him or her on long walks. I dont have a very packed schedule so ill have plenty of time to play with your pups and kitties! Im able to walk or feed your dog before 9 am and at around 12.30 in the afternoon every weekday as well as boarding your pup or kitty at my house or watching your dog overnight at your home every week day except Friday. Weekends I have more flexibility during the day and can watch your companion overnight on saturday and sunday if needed. I am flexible with day of requests for random times and can make those work every now and then. ALL PRICES ARE NEGOTIABLE. I have a fenced back yard and a very friend shiba inu and chow chow mix who is a spayed female dog and is the light of my life and a black outdoor cat. My dog is very friendly with all animals and is very curious of being friends with others and would be a perfect companion for your animal.

About: With over 20 years of experience caring for pets of all breeds, sizes, and ages, I’m passionate about providing top-notch, personalized care for your furry family members. Whether it's a playful pup, a senior companion, or a pet with special needs, I tailor my approach to meet their unique requirements. What sets me apart: -Flexible Care: I’m happy to stay with your pet all day if needed, ensuring they get constant companionship and attention, whether you're at work or away. -Medication Administration: Experienced in giving pets oral meds, injections, and other treatments as needed, so you can rest easy knowing your pet is in good hands. -Puppy Training: Helping puppies with the basics like housebreaking and socialization, all with positive reinforcement methods. -Senior Pet Care: I understand the needs of older pets, providing gentle walks, extra comfort, and ensuring they receive their medication on time. Your pet’s well-being is my priority, and I’ll treat them like my own—providing a safe, caring, and enriching environment in your absence. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine as I work part-time from home, giving me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to devote to your pets. Whether it's during the day for a midday walk, some playtime, or extended care while you're away, I can easily adjust to meet your pet’s needs. In my home, your pet will feel like part of the family. I have two friendly dogs who love meeting new friends, so if your pet enjoys socializing, they’ll have a blast together! We have a small, secure fenced front yard where they can safely play and explore. Plus, I'm always happy to take them to local beaches, parks, or walking trails for fun outdoor adventures. If your pet prefers to stay in their own environment, that’s absolutely fine too! I can come to your home and provide as much care as needed, whether it’s for short visits or staying overnight. I’m flexible and will ensure your pet feels comfortable and loved, sticking to their regular routine while you're away. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize your pet's well-being and will always adapt to their unique needs, ensuring they’re happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: I’ve had animals all my life but have recently started taking care of neighbors pets. I provided services of walks and overnight for both cats and dogs. I am currently home from college so I have a very open schedule this summer to take care of pets as needed depending on the animal. I can easily walk your pet and love spending time with animals. I can easily adapt to the need of individual animals and love to care for them.

About: Animals have always been a part of my life and family. I find a lot of joy in caring for them and appreciate the reciprocal relationship that develops with them over time. No matter what mood I’m in, my interactions with animals often leave me in a positive state of mind. I work full time, Mon-Fri from 8-4:30. Any time outside of this I am happy to work doing sitting or walking, and I’m open to staying overnight. I can be somewhat flexible with your needs. I am looking to supplement my income, but also just really enjoy having animals in my life and can’t have them in my own home. My landlord does not permit animals in the building, so I would have to come where your animals are. I can either walk a dog from your home, stop by for feedings , or house-sit as needed.

About: I've been taking care of animals including wildlife and exotic species for over 5 years. I'm trained in medication administration (including injections) as well as dietary restrictions; I have certificates in Clinical Animal Behavior and Cooperative Care Training with an understanding of how to manage behavioral needs. I take care of my cats every day with assistance from my mom when I'm out of the house; I also do Petsitting and dog walking on a weekly basis. I work full time and do this as a supplement to my income, and to spend time getting to know your pets! I follow instructions carefully, including medication administration needs; I introduce myself to animals slowly and with lots of positive reinforcement to create a healthy relationship. I listen to owner's needs regarding their animal and do my best to be flexible.

About: Hi There! My name is Bailey and I am an experienced pet sitter with repeat clients who continue to trust me for ongoing care. I specialize in providing calm, consistent, and attentive care for pets while their owners are away. I have been caring for animals for many years, starting with family and friends’ pets, and have been active on Rover since January 2025. I provide dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, and pet sitting, always focused on keeping pets comfortable and maintaining their normal routine. I have experience with cats, dogs, and a variety of other animals, including reptiles and small farm animals. I’m confident following detailed care instructions and adjusting to each pet’s individual needs and personality. My pet parents receive clear communication and reliability, and I provide regular updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing. If you’re looking for dependable, stress-free care and someone your pets can feel comfortable with, I’d love to help! Pet care fits into my weekly routine and is my primary focus outside of my schooling and part-time job. I work as a hostess Friday–Sunday starting at 4pm. I have class from 8am-3pm on Mondays and 6am-2pm on Tuesday and Wednesdays. This leaves my morning/afternoons on Friday-Sunday, and evenings on Monday-Wednesday open for pet care. As well as all day on Thursdays. I am available for stop-in visits, feeding, walks, and overnight house sitting, and I do my best to accommodate regular or recurring clients whenever possible. My top priority is always the safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet in my care. I treat each home and animal with respect and follow all owner instructions closely to maintain your pet’s normal routine. I provide care in the client’s home, where pets are most comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I am not currently able to offer boarding in my home, but I am fully available for in-home visits, walks, and house sitting. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pets and home, and I make sure to provide reliable, attentive care along with regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Very good with my little stinker Star. Enjoyed the fact that she was very much on board with keeping Star’s training moving forward.”

About: I currently own a kitty, pup, and some chickens. I have fostered kittens and trained my dog to do agility, I also grew up doing 4H! I have owned a horse and goats as well so I have experience with farm animals! I love bonding with animals and they’ve always been such an important part of who I am. I promise you I will take the best care of your sweet pets! I am in California temporarily for winter time as I am a College student from another state. I am looking to work whenever/as needed! ! When I have pet sit/house sit in the past, I spend a lot of time bonding with the pets and making them feel safe and not alone. I am flexible when it comes to stopping by to check on them or living in to take care of them. I love giving out treats and playing but of course it’s up to you as to what I’d be allowed to do!

About: I love animals! I remember what it was like when my family went out of town and we couldn't bring our animals and how important it was to us to make sure they were comfortable while we were gone. Knowing they were safe, made my mom and dad feel at ease and able to enjoy our time away. As a mother now myself, I understand what it means to feel secure when you can't be the one taking care of your child. My heart guides me this way. I hope to be able to help you feel secure when you can't be there. I also would like to open my home to your furry family members if that makes it more comfortable. I also love to run/hike and would love to have a buddy to come with me. I live in a perfect neighborhood that allows for walks of all kinds and there is a park around the away where dogs are allowed. I am also extremely open to cats! My pal passed about 13years ago and I travel too much to bring myself to adopt another. Why I love dog sitting I've loved dogs my entire life. I am very compassionate by nature and have a natural empathy for animals. I believe my calm/attentive energy allows me to connect with them and for them to feel safe. Animals are very perceptive this way. Meet my pets No Pets....my cat passed away 13 years ago...and I travel too much to bring myself to adopt another just yet....that is unless one adopts me :-)

About: My farm store experience and lifelong animal-raising background, combined with insights from seasoned pet professionals, set me apart as a uniquely qualified, compassionate pet sitter.

I care for all animals like they're mine, providing a safe environment, while being respectful of property, rules, and requirements, ensuring a stress-free experience, always.
