“She was a lifesaver on a short notice Friday/Saturday when I had to go out of town for events with my son.

Definitely will call her in the future if I need to.”

About: Dog owner myself and have tons of loving to go around. Henry is a 2 year old poodle mix. My kids are gone now and love to spoil my dog and grandkids - so I can spoil yours too. Very dependable and flexiable. Detail oriented and looking for some extra income. Plus I know what it's like to find dependable dog sitters. Don't worry - will send pictures daily too. Your dog will feel right at home. With their own bed and plenty of belly rubs. With me you will not have to worry if your babies are being taken care of. Spoiled! I do prefer littler dogs because I can control the little dogs better. Plus they are so cute and love to cuddle. I'm currently working part time - so I have plenty of time to spoil your fur babies. My husband and I love having all the dogs visiting. I have a fenced in back yard and let them roam, they all love too. When I have to leave I can crate your dogs too if needed.

About: Growing up with a dog, I am familiar with potty breaks, feeding schedules, walking/playing, and bath time hacks. When I moved out of my parents home I took on dog sitting as a side time gig. I have 4 families I watch and take care of their fur babies as needed and came to Rover to find more! I also have raised a puppy of my own - Murphy! Lots of experience with all stages of life. Currently I am in between jobs and have lots of free time. My ideal full time job will be remote based which will open up my availability as well. My goal for your pet is to keep their schedules on track and keep their tails waggin! The dog is the priority and I fully intend on making sure their needs are met before leaving the home.

“Jennifer was great with communication and photos during her time with my dog. Ziggi enjoyed her time with her and her other dogs. Thank you!”

“Jessica did a great job taking care of our dog Bernie. Very quick responses when inquiring information and extremely polite/thoughtful throughout the entire process. She also sent several updates throughout the day, especially when Bernie was interacting with children or other dogs. Her family is great and they have wonderful home with a spacious backyard. She seemed to be very patient with Bernie’s puppy zoomies and chewing habits. Would strongly recommend her for any pet care.”

“Sharon is great with animals. She's always patient with my very hyper husky. She's very caring and dependable. You and your dog(s) would be very lucky to have her.”

“Sarah was amazing! She was able to watch Molly (my golden retriever puppy) at the last minute. I loved the daily pictures of all the fun Molly was having at the park and snuggling into blankets during her stay with Sarah. I have no doubt Molly was well loved and taken care of for the weekend. I would highly recommend Sarah for any dog sitting needs and she is now at the top of my list for dog sitting!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and other pets since I was 8 years old! Neighbors, friends and family have all relied on me to take great care of their dogs, and play with them as well! Overnight or just for the day. I am currently in school so weekdays I have that 9am-4pm but I have a break at 12 so the longest I would be away is 4 hours. I also have friends who live in the same neighborhood who are willing to stop over and let dogs out for a quick potty and play! I have a very friendly little dog to keep your puppy company! I also have a dog safe apartment and a backyard with a long runner for them to play.

“Justin would be a great caregiver for your pet while you are away. He has a love for animals, tons of experience with dogs, cats and even exotic pets. He’s got a big heart, great attitude and amazing work ethic! Your pet will be thrilled to have Justin take care of them in your absence.”
