I enjoy taking dogs for walks and there are several walking paths in my neighborhood.

“Christina took such good care of our little girl. Even at our first meeting we knew she was in good hands. Having experience with dogs (especially German Shepherds), Christina had the perfect demeanor with Leeloo who can be hesitant to trust people she doesn't know. Her special care, attention, and affectionate towards Leeloo had her excitedly anticipating her visits and walks!”

“Shirley is consistent, timely, and affectionate with our animals. She gives great care while letting our dog out, taking the time to pet play with her. Highly recommend.”

“Lauren was great with my dog Archer! Extremely patient and worked with him as he became comfortable with her during the first few walks. I immediately booked with her again and look forward to working with her further!”

About: I've had four years of professional experience caring for animals, more specifically working with dogs and cats. I've also dealt with some gerbils, chickens, fish, etc. i have two dogs of my own now, Pitbull Mixes. Since I was 5 years old, I was raised in a home with a cat (she has since passed on but a few years later I got my own cat.) I've also had experience with dogs since around the same age, learning some training basics and general care. My OG best friend, Tyler (Coolest black lab ever!) who taught me everything has since passed on as well but the love I have for all of my animals forever lives on in my heart. I am self-employed, so I generally have an incredibly flexible work schedule. I should have no problems adjusting to you and your loved one(s) needs :) I care for all of my animals and especially my client's animals with extreme care, making sure I am observant of their cues, diligent with their scheduling requirements (foods, meds, etc.), providing them with all the physical affection they desire and more. I can assure you your fur baby/babies are in safe hands!

About: I had a multiple dogs growing up, one who is 11 years old now, and also just became a new Fur Mom to an 8 month old golden retriever (who has put me through the wringer so far). I am an animal lover and just want to be helpful since I use rover myself for sitters, and i figured I’d be just as helpful as the many sitters on here have been for me!! I work full time but that is just 3 days a week, so any other day I am available most of the day to accommodate your fur babies! My schedule does change every week though I live in an apartment complex but have access to a dog park within the complex and will be able to take your pups to local dog parks as well

About: Devoted Dog Lover with a Lifetime of Experience About Me: Hello! I’m a lifelong dog enthusiast who’s had the joy of sharing my life with furry friends for as long as I can remember. Recently, I said a heartfelt goodbye to my beloved companion of 18 years, with whom I shared countless adventures and daily walks. This experience has deepened my understanding and compassion for dogs of all ages and needs. My Approach: I believe in treating every dog as if they were my own, offering them the same love, care, and attention that I provided to my own pet. My approach is grounded in patience, understanding, and a keen awareness of each dog’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s energetic playtime, leisurely strolls, or just some cozy cuddle time, I’m here to make sure your dog feels happy, safe, and loved. Experience: Throughout my life, I’ve nurtured and cared for several dogs, each with their own special quirks and requirements. I’m experienced in handling a range of breeds, temperaments, and age groups. My recent 18-year journey with my senior dog has especially equipped me to understand the gentle care and patience needed for older pets. Services Offered: • Daily walks (with a keen sense for your dog’s preferred pace and distance) • Feeding and medication administration, if required • Regular updates and photos to assure you of your pet’s well-being • Lots of love, play, and attention • Experience in caring for senior dogs Closing Note: I’m excited to meet your furry family member and provide them with the same warmth and affection that’s been a cornerstone of my life. Your dog’s happiness and safety will always be my top priority! Pet care is an integral and cherished part of my daily routine. Since I’m retired, I have the flexibility and time to dedicate to the pets I care for. My days are structured around ensuring that the dogs in my care receive all the attention and activity they need. Morning: My day typically starts with a morning walk, which I find is a great way to help the dogs get some fresh air and exercise first thing in the day. It’s also a peaceful time for them to explore and enjoy the quieter hours. Midday: Throughout the day, I ensure they have plenty of playtime, whether it’s in the backyard or inside with toys. I’m always attentive to their need for interaction and mental stimulation. Afternoon: In the afternoon, we usually go for another walk. This is a longer one, where we can explore local parks or walking trails, allowing the dogs to experience new sights and smells. Evening: As the day winds down, I focus on quieter activities like cuddling or gentle play, ensuring the dogs are calm and relaxed. Evening is also the time for dinner and any needed medications. Night: Before bedtime, there’s a short walk or a quick backyard visit, so the dogs are comfortable through the night. Throughout the day, I’m attentive to the dogs’ needs for food, water, and bathroom breaks. I also ensure they have a comfortable and safe space to rest. Being home most of the day allows me to provide constant companionship and supervision, ensuring that the dogs in my care are not just looked after, but also loved and cherished. Caring for pets, whether in my home or in a client’s home, is done with utmost attention to their comfort, safety, and happiness. My approach is tailored to each pet’s individual needs and preferences, ensuring they feel loved and secure in their environment. In My Home: • Safe Environment: I ensure my home is pet-proofed, with no hazards and plenty of cozy, comfortable spots for them to rest. • Routine: I maintain a consistent routine for meals, walks, and playtime, which helps pets feel secure and settled. • Play and Exercise: I provide plenty of playtime and exercise, tailored to the pet’s energy level and health. • Affection: I believe in plenty of cuddles and affection to make them feel at home. • Supervision: Continuous supervision is provided, ensuring their safety at all times. In Clients’ Homes: • Respect for the Home: I am meticulous about respecting the client’s space, ensuring it’s kept clean and secure. • Following Instructions: I strictly adhere to the pet care instructions provided by the client, respecting their routines and rules. • Updates: Regular updates with photos are sent to the client, keeping them connected with their pet’s activities and well-being. • Emergency Preparedness: I am prepared and informed about the pet’s needs and local veterinary services in case of an emergency. Common to Both: • Health Monitoring: I keep a close eye on the pet’s health and behavior, promptly addressing any concerns. • Hydration and Nutrition: Ensuring regular access to fresh water and feeding them as per their dietary requirements. • Medication Administration: If needed, I am experienced in administering medications. My goal is to provide a loving, fun, and safe experience for pets, giving them the care and attention they would receive from their own families.
About: I have been taking care of dogs for about 9 years now. I also helped when my dog had her 5 puppies around 7-8 years ago. Now, I watch my two dogs on the daily. I have also watched elderly dogs and provided night care. I am generally available every day unless I have something personal planned — feel free to message me to check for a specific date / dates! It is very important to me that my focus is on your fur-baby, so I prioritize playing with them and keeping an eye on them to ensure safety and wellness. I always make sure that they have water and they are fed exactly how they need to be fed.

Vanessa is fantastic! Reliable, flexible, and caring. Im very particular in the type of person I want caring for my dogs bc I need someone who understands dogs and I got that vibe from Vanessa. She accommodated both my energetic and nervous dogs wonderfully and was even flexible with a last minute cancelation on a house sitting. I'd 100% recommend Vanessa, but only if youre not taking up her availability for when I need her :) I cant say enough good things!
