Krystal was absolutely amazing! We have 2 dogs between 50-60 lbs each. We were gone for a week during the coldest time and Krystal was fantastic. She was able to walk dogs an hour each day and always sent updates about the weather, how they were doing, and feedback on the walks. She also sent pictures. She was great at very communication and really understand dogs and their behaviors. I highly highly recommend her.

About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life. I’ve cared for animals ranging from mice to horses. I have worked in vet clinics and have done a lot of research on my own time. They are my passion. I currently have the most experience in dogs. I’m actively an apprentice with a local dog trainer to be a positive reinforcement force free trainer. I am also studying canine behavior. I have experience in doggy daycare, boarding, and grooming. I have administered medications ranging from oral medicine to injections (subq and intermuscular). Like I said before, I love em like my own! I am home all day most days. I do have two dogs of my own so they are always outside playing. Pet care is what I do when I wake up to when I go to bed. I’m available most days for play dates, walks, boarding, grooming, and more! I have a large fenced in yard. I also have so so many dog toys. I have two dogs as well so your baby can make friends! I can offer crates when we leave or at night if you prefer! I have plenty of house for them to be in as well, also plenty of people to love on them! Your baby will never be alone!

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. For the past 8 years, I’ve been the proud pet parent of two wonderful dogs who are a big part of my daily routine—I play with them, make sure they get plenty of exercise, feed them nutritious meals, and, most importantly, give them lots of love and attention. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve also volunteered with a local rescue organization, helping homeless puppies find loving homes. I’ve fostered dogs and kittens in need, giving them a safe and nurturing environment while they wait for their forever families. This hands-on experience has taught me how to handle a wide range of temperaments and needs with patience and compassion. I’m available on weekends and most holidays, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pup, including visits to your home if needed. During the week, I work a regular 8–5 job, but I make time in my schedule to provide consistent care. I can stop by for potty breaks and walks in the morning before work, around lunchtime (around noon) if needed, and again in the evening after 5 PM. Your dog’s comfort and routine are important to me, and I’m happy to work with you to make sure they get the attention, exercise, and love they need throughout the day. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for any pet—whether it’s in my home or yours. In my own home, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment with secure spaces where dogs can play, relax, and feel comfortable. I’m always mindful of keeping anything unsafe (like cords, small objects, or toxic foods) out of reach, and I never leave pets unattended in risky situations. When caring for a client’s dog, I follow their routine closely and keep communication open with regular updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your pup is doing. I take the time to get to know each dog’s personality, needs, and boundaries to make sure they feel safe and loved. Whether we’re on a walk, having playtime, or just cuddling, your dog’s well-being is always my focus.

Sam has been an absolutely terrific dog walker for Kyra. This is my first time using Rover, and so far, Sam has beyond exceeded any expectations I had for a new dog walker. She communicates well, sends photos and updates daily, always gives treats, and even refills Kyra’s water bowl if needed. Kyra has been so happy having Sam come to visit while I’m at work and I would certainly recommend Sam to anyone seeking a trustworthy, reliable dog walker.

About: Growing up I lived in the country with cows, horses and chickens next door. We always had many cats and dogs because we had the space and they just knew we would take them in if they didn't have a home. I wish I had the space now to have more animals but since I dont, it would be an honor to take care of yours. My experience with animals would be having a cat that needed shots daily for diabetes, a blind dog, dog that had seizures, taking care of friends and family's pets. Some which needed daily medicine or had a lot of energy : ). I ppreciate the trust they have in me to take care of their fur family members. Each pet, like humans, have their own personality.

About: I am a pet trainer and pet service provider experienced in working with puppies, rescues, seniors, and some special needs animals. I have cared for and shared my life with dogs for nearly 42 years. I was an educator at the college level for over 20 years. I worked in a Kennel for 4 years and started my own training and pet service 3 years ago. I have experience in administering medications, and am comfortable doing so according to your specific instructions. I have 4 dogs of my own, all of whom are therapy certified. We did bi weekly hospice visits and also visited residents in a local nursing homes until the COVID Pandemic. I understand the needs of dogs, and your need to know your pet is being well cared for in your absence. Young, old, big, small, I love them all! *Unfortunately, I am severely allergic to cats. So I am not able to accept requests for homes with cats. I am a retired educator, now a full-time artist, so my schedule is my own; allowing me flexible availability to assist you with your pet care needs I am happy to do drop in visits to check on your pup(s), day stays, overnights and extended stays in your home. I do not currently offer boarding or doggy day care in my home.

About: My whole life I’ve been around dogs. Practically everyone in my friends and family have a pup of varying sizes. I’ve been trusted to feed and walk their fur babies. My sister adopted a senior dog a couple of years ago, and it has been my biggest pleasure to get to know her better as well as what separates a senior dog from a younger one. I have been trusted to stay with her, take her outside to potty, take her on walks, and feed her whenever my sister is away. Each day is different, so I’ve been able to adapt on the fly to suit her needs for each day best. I have a flexible work schedule, so even though I have more traditional work hours, I can take 30 minutes or an hour to come visit with your pet and let them outside to walk or potty based on their needs. I do not work after 4pm, so if you need me overnight with your pet, they will have my full attention until 8am the next morning when I go to work. I am able to leave work briefly to check up on your pet during the day as well. I am someone who enjoys a clean space. Our furry friends deserve to have a clean space themselves and clean bodies. If there is mud to be wiped off of their paws, I will happily take care of it, and clean up any mud that was tracked inside. Anything that I can do to pamper your pet and make them feel safe around me is the least I can do. I look forward to making new furry friends!

About: I have much experience with animals. I have had a couple pets growing up including dogs, cats, and even a guinea pig! I love all animals! I am currently a full time college student and work full time as well! I am looking for part time work after 3pm Monday-Friday and open availability on Saturday and Sunday! When I had my dog a little over 5 years ago- I had a great set up for him. I had a kennel, leash for walks, and endless amounts of toys and treats! I loved bringing my dog on car rides which included getting a pup cup or some ice cream. I also enjoyed bringing my dog on walk and hikes!

About: I have never been without animals, immediately family, extended family, while I was growing up I have been around dogs. I have dog sat, cat sat, and even stayed at their house to give the animals company as they need it! I’m available for days and overnights, my schedule is flexible. I teach swimming lessons 3 days a week, equaling about 15 hours, 4-8 on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. If you ask me to crate your dog when I leave the house, I will do just that. Usually a list is left so I know just what your furry baby or babies need, rather it be for treats or care. I will keep to their feeding schedule and potty schedule, as well as their sleep schedule. Always remembering to give them lots of love and affection!

I have 2 years of experience taking care of pets for just family and friends and 4 years of taking care of pets for other people :) I have plenty of time to take care of your pets!! I can do anything from pet sitting, to stopping by to let pets out or feed them! I also love taking walks and going on jogs, so bring your pet along with me would be amazing!! I am more than happy to take care of pets in your home! I have a large house, but not much of a backyard, as well as roommates, so boarding in my home may be slightly less likely, but still an option!

About: I can’t remember a time that I didn’t have a pet. Whether that be, dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, turtles, ducks and even a tortoise. I have always had a furry friend to take care of. Now as an adult I have 2 big ol’ dogs and 2 cats of my own that keep me on my toes. I have a lot of experience with puppies, kittens, elderly animals and also have experience with providing medication to pets including having to give insulin to diabetic fur babies. I’d love to meet you and your pet(s) and help you with whatever needs they may have! I have a lot of free time these days but also have a 6 year old daughter that takes up some of that time. I am more than willing to allocate most of the remaining time to helping you and your family. I have two high energy dogs with a big fenced in back yard and lots of room to run around. I also have a very big neighborhood that is perfect for long walks.

About: I've had dogs since I was 10 years old. I grew up with them. I currently have a very energetic 3 year old female boxer name Parker and a 9 month old mix who would love some company! I am currently working from home full time. So I am home all day. Your pet would have my full attention. No need to worry! My dogs had free range of the house. We also have a dog park that we frequently visit with 7 minutes of our home. Which is in a gated community.

About: With four years of summer experience at an animal shelter and a lifetime of volunteering, I've dedicated myself to caring for animals. My love for animals began as soon as I was old enough to volunteer, and I have a deep passion for ensuring their well-being. While I adore cats, I have a huge heart for dogs as well. I'm committed to providing a safe, loving, and fun environment for your pets. I am a college athlete. Which can make my schedule busy at times, but I love caring for animals and it is truly my passion. I have classes during the morning into early afternoon times depend on the day, but ultimately I will not have more than five consecutive hours of class for one day. I have practice at night time for 3 to 4 hours on certain days. Although I have a busy schedule, I can assure that your pet will be taken wonderful care of as I spend most of my time at home while not at class or practice. Whether caring for pets in my own home or in a client's, my top priorities are their safety, comfort, and happiness. I ensure the environment is free of hazards and tailor my care to meet each pet's individual needs, maintaining their regular feeding, walking, and playtime schedules. I provide plenty of affection and positive interaction, keeping their spaces clean and tidy, and maintain open communication with pet owners, offering updates and photos to ensure peace of mind. For in-home care, I respect the client's home and follow their specific instructions, ensuring their pet feels secure and loved.

Stacy was wonderful with our pug, Brutus, who is 1 1/2. He is full of energy and likes one on one attention. She gave him full attention and was tired when we came home. Small miracle!. Thank you so much for loving our Brutus like he was yours. He is our baby and we trust him completely with Stacy.

Before going to rover for my pet care needs I got Michelle’s card for Puppy Loves Pet Services. I recently got 2 shepskys puppies wasn’t sure how I was going to handle two puppies at 8 weeks old (also being a single mom of two children 2 & 8). Michelle just recently started training the puppies at my house which makes it so convenient for the kids and me. the advice and knowledge that she gives to us each week is amazing the kids are learning every week something new that they can teach the dogs and be involved. Michelle is so patient with the dogs and the kids and myself because before her we were lost on what to do never really professionally trained other dogs I have had in the past . I highly recommend Michelle for all of your dog needs you won’t be disappointed.

My family owns a weimarander dog and two cats. While on a week long vacation, I had the joy of having Erin watch over our pets. She took great care of them and consistently sent pictures of them to us as we traveled so it could feel like we were still with them. She was a friendly caregiver that we will be returning to in the future.

I am currently a full time college student and work full time as well! I am looking for part time work after 3pm Monday-Friday and open availability on Saturday and Sunday! When I had my dog a little over 5 years ago- I had a great set up for him. I had a kennel, leash for walks, and endless amounts of toys and treats! I loved bringing my dog on car rides which included getting a pup cup or some ice cream. I also enjoyed bringing my dog on walk and hikes!

I am writing to enthusiastically recommend Mariela as an exceptional in-home pet sitter. I have had the pleasure of working with her for 2 years, during which she provided love and attention to my beloved pets and home. Mari demonstrates a genuine love for animals. She took the time to get to know my pets’ unique personalities, habits, and needs, which immediately put me at ease. It was clear that she values the well-being and happiness of the pets under her care. Mariela stayed in our home for 10 days during our most recent trip. Anytime we checked our security cameras, we saw that our pets were calm and relaxed, often sleeping on the sofa next to her. Upon our return home, we found our animals in great spirits and our home was clean and in the same condition we left it. Mariela demonstrated a high level of responsibility and reliability. She followed all care instructions diligently, ensuring that my pet's feeding, exercise, and medical needs were met with precision. Additionally, she maintained clear and consistent communication with us, providing regular updates via photo and video. We have had exceedingly positive experiences entrusting our pets and home under Mariela’s supervision, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking an in-home pet sitter. She has consistently gone above and beyond in providing high quality care, and I am confident that she will continue to do so for any pet placed under her care. We already have her booked for our next vacation!

About: I have taken care of all types of animals, from basic to exotic, since I was 15. I have 2 years of experience taking care of pets for just family and friends and 4 years of taking care of pets for other people :) I have plenty of time to take care of your pets!! I can do anything from pet sitting, to stopping by to let pets out or feed them! I also love taking walks and going on jogs, so bring your pet along with me would be amazing!! I am more than happy to take care of pets in your home! I have a large house, but not much of a backyard, as well as roommates, so boarding in my home may be slightly less likely, but still an option!

About: I can’t remember a time that I didn’t have a pet. Whether that be, dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, turtles, ducks and even a tortoise. I have always had a furry friend to take care of. Now as an adult I have 2 big ol’ dogs and 2 cats of my own that keep me on my toes. I have a lot of experience with puppies, kittens, elderly animals and also have experience with providing medication to pets including having to give insulin to diabetic fur babies. I’d love to meet you and your pet(s) and help you with whatever needs they may have! I have a lot of free time these days but also have a 6 year old daughter that takes up some of that time. I am more than willing to allocate most of the remaining time to helping you and your family. I have two high energy dogs with a big fenced in back yard and lots of room to run around. I also have a very big neighborhood that is perfect for long walks.

Brittany is absolutely amazing! She takes care of my pets when I'm away for work, and I couldn't ask for someone more loving and attentive. I have cameras at home, and every time I check, I see her playing with Ally and Athena, giving them so much love. Athena is extremely shy, but the moment she met Brittany, they clicked right away, it was like Brittany was an animal whisperer! It takes a special kind of person to earn that kind of trust so quickly. She also walks my Shih Tzu, little Bobby, who absolutely adores her! Knowing my pets are in such great hands gives me so much peace of mind. I highly recommend Brittany to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!

About: I've had dogs since I was 10 years old. I grew up with them. I currently have a very energetic 3 year old female boxer name Parker and a 9 month old mix who would love some company! I am currently working from home full time. So I am home all day. Your pet would have my full attention. No need to worry! My dogs had free range of the house. We also have a dog park that we frequently visit with 7 minutes of our home. Which is in a gated community.
