About: I’ve had all types of dogs and cats throughout my 58 years of life. I currently have two beautiful Rottweilers whom I love dearly. Now that I’m retired, my goal is to get some land and have an animal rescue. I like spending time with animals more than people. I am retired so my days are spent spending time with my two Rottweilers and going to the gym and that’s about it. I have plenty of time to help care for animals that need me. I will care for your dog in whatever way you request. My schedule with them will be exactly what you want it to be. Both my Rottweilers sleep in my bed with me so if your dogs normally sleep in the bed with you, I will do that too. Actually it’s my favorite 🥰. I get sad when I have to leave my Rottweilers with family only because I know they’ll miss sleeping with me, going to their favorite park and chasing the ball, and spending the entire day with me. Animals get used to their routine and it stresses them out and makes them sad when they don’t get to do their normal things and spend time with their people. So I will try to make them as happy as they can be while you’re gone.
About: I’ve been a pet owner my entire life and truly believe pets are part of the family. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all personalities, ages, and sizes. I’m offering walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I’ll treat your fur baby with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own pets. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, so I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and communication along the way! Working from home gives me a lot of flexibility in my day, which makes pet care a really natural fit for my lifestyle. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and find it incredibly rewarding to care for them, whether that means going for a walk, giving them some extra attention and playtime, or simply keeping them company while their family is away. I do have a family, so I’m mindful about planning my schedule around our family commitments. That said, working from home gives me the flexibility to organize my time thoughtfully and make sure I can be present and attentive when caring for your pets. I’d love the opportunity to treat your pets like part of the family and give them the same love, patience, and care I’d want for my own! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I know how much trust it takes to leave your beloved pet and your home in someone else’s care, so I treat that responsibility very seriously. I take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, needs, and any special instructions so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, surroundings, and anything that could potentially put a pet at risk. I also treat every home with the same respect and care I would want for my own. Most importantly, I want you to feel completely comfortable and confident while your pet is with me. I’ll communicate with you, provide updates and photos, and make sure your furry family member gets plenty of love, attention, and patience while you’re away. ❤️
About: Hi! We’re a family of 6 who all enjoy furry friends. My kids range from 16 down to 9. They love to help me keep the animals happy. Our little 20 pound dog is super friendly and enjoys meeting new dogs and seeing the friends she has made. I haven’t watched a dog she hasn’t warmed up to within a few minutes. We prefer smaller dogs, but if you have a gentle, nice, large dog we’d be happy to watch him/her. We’ve had a lot of fun with some of the friendly big dogs we’ve watched. We live in a safe neighborhood with a beautiful walking trail for the dogs who enjoy getting out. We promise to treat your dog like they’re part of our family. Thanks for considering us. We’d be happy to set up a meet and greet for those wanting to leave their dog for more than a day. Thank you! I am currently homeschooling 3 of my kids so we're home most of the day. A couple of days a week I run my kids to their activities, but we're usually not gone for more than 2 hours. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly dog to keep your dog company. My 4 kids also love dogs so we'll give your dog lots of love and attention.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I grew up with my childhood dog and cared for him for 17 years until he passed away. I now have three huskies, so taking care of dogs is a big part of my everyday life. I’m reliable, patient, and comfortable with high-energy dogs. I know how important it is to have someone you trust taking care of your pets while you’re away, and I’ll follow their normal routine, give them plenty of attention, and keep you updated with pictures along the way. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I’m happy to coordinate schedules in advance and keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. I’ll follow the routine and instructions you leave for your pets and make sure they’re safe and comfortable while in my care. I’m careful when coming and going, especially with doors, gates, and leashes. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own and keep you updated while you’re away.

My own dog is friendly and loves meeting new pals, so if your pet is social, they’ll have a great time. I live in a welcoming, pet-friendly community that’s perfect for walks and overnight stays.

And if your pet prefers their own home, I’m happy to come to you and make sure they’re comfortable and happy in their familiar space.

About: I helped my parents take care of there friends dogs since I was 8 and they've taught me a lot. Also my mom worked at Petco and worked in animal care and she told me and taught me what she's learned from her experience at work with cats and other animals. I've been currently looking for a job and havent had any luck so I have a lot of free time on my hands weekdays and weekends!! When we went to go sit my parents friends dogs we would feed them every morning and evening and then let them run around in the backyard they had a doggie door in their bedroom so for the most part the dogs had access to the bathroom to go potty and come and go as they please. But when we hung out in the living room with them since there was no access to a doggy door we would let them out around 3-4 times per day we would also walk them in the morning and sunset and feed them either before or after there walk depending on their actions and vibes
“Abby did a great job with our dog Ritmo while we were on vacation. It was the first time we used this service and we couldn't have been more lucky. She took care of our baby like it was her own.

About: I have been a professional dog walker and pet sitter for 7 years and have cared for many animals through the course of my life ranging from mice and snakes to mastiffs and great danes. No animal is too big or small for me and your beloved fur babies will be well cared for and spoiled when given permission! I have worked with puppies and kittens as young as 3 months to dogs and cats over 15 years of age. I can offer lots of exercise and engagement or if your fur kid just liked to lounge, we can do that too! Whatever you and your fur kid needs, I'm your guy! I just recently got employed at a company but am waiting until September 1st to get my schedule to see what my availability will look like. In my clients home, whatever my client needs I am willing to provide.

About: Hello, I'm Kristy! I'm a lifetime animal lover based in Tracy. I have experience caring for my own dogs, currently have two senior Great Danes and regularly help friends with drop in visits and dog walks. I'm comfortable with strong pullers, senior dogs, and administering medication if needed. I work part time. Im able to stop by for visits or walks on my days off. I'm flexible on times. I will keep my rover calendar updated. Your pets safety and routine come first. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedule, and household rules. I treat every clients home with dignity and respect.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals since 1997; from dogs/cats-reptiles/fish & I was taught to treat them with just as much care, love & respect that you’d give a child. I’m familiar with their care, needs & certain levels of training. That being said, I hope to have the chance to meet yours & care for them while you're away! I currently work from home & have had some extra time on my hands. I recently came across Rover & thought it would be a perfect way to invest my spare time in an intentional/purposeful & financially lucrative way. I can work around most schedules, whether that’s weekends, early mornings or evenings. The best part about animals is that they’re all so different & unique in their own special way; which calls for a different level of care from pet-pet, not 1 animal is the same in my opinion. All that to say, I’m willing to adapt to anything/everything your pet may need while you’re away & hope to hear from you soon!
