About: I have had animals apart of my life since I was born! Although we do not currently own any pets since we love to travel we love taking part of pet sitting and dog walking! We started asking our neighbors if we could spend some time with their pups after seeing our son was scared of dogs as a simple way to help introduce him into the world of joy that comes with owning a dog. And throughout the process we got to meet so many different dogs and fell in love with learning all the different personalities and quirks each dog had. Since my fiancé and I both work from home we thought why not look into doing this more regularly! Which lead us to joining Rover! So here we are ready to help our neighbors with any of their pet needs! Looking forward to spoiling your fur babies! From my pack to yours, I can’t wait to hear from you! It's important to note that every pet is unique, and their individual needs may vary. Owners should tailor their routines to accommodate their pet's specific requirements, age, breed, and health conditions. Flexibility and adaptability are key to ensuring the well-being and happiness of your pet within your daily or weekly schedule. Initial consultation: Meet with the client to discuss their pet's routine, dietary needs, medical history, and any specific instructions. Take note of emergency contact information and inform the client about your availability. Maintain the pet's routine: Stick to the pet's established schedule for feeding, walking, playtime, and medication administration, if required. Consistency helps reduce stress for the pet. Safety and security: Ensure that the home is secure and that the pet cannot escape. Keep an eye out for potential hazards, such as open windows, toxic substances, or small objects that the pet could ingest. Exercise and play: Provide the pet with sufficient exercise and mental stimulation according to their needs. Take dogs for walks, engage them in play, or follow any specific exercise routines requested by the client. Food and water: Follow the client's instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, and dietary restrictions. Ensure that fresh water is always available. Monitoring and interaction: Spend quality time with the pet, offering companionship, affection, and socialization. Observe their behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, reporting any concerns to the client.

About: I have had dogs and cats all my life from puppy/kitten to seniors and always try to make everyday special for them. Very attentive to their needs. I have a full time work from home job so taking care of pets during the day would be simple if they are taken care of here. I am flexible if need to be in your home, as long as I have internet access for work. I have a very large fenced in yard and numerous rooms in the house to keep your pet comfortable and taken care of. I have my own medium sized dog and cat so if they are friendly they can play but if not, can always crate them in a nice safe space.
11. Joshua S.
“Joshua is the most determined person I’ve ever met. He is intelligent but most of all he uses that intelligent well to be very clear. However, he does have his flaws. He has a confidence, although well-founded, it is hard to overlook. However, when you need him to be there he will be there.”
12. Alex A.
“Alex is an amazing dog handler. I can say that simply having my dog with her once a week for a few months led to a noticable improvement for on leash walking skills. Awesome communication and my dog always runs up to greet her for their day together.”
13. Annie S.
About: I’ve had cats and dogs all my life! They are always my favorite people and the best at brightening your day. I don’t currently have a dog but I miss them, I am happy to be around them and have experience with all basic tasks of feeding, walking and playing and cleaning up. I am currently between jobs, so I am widely available outside of dropping off and picking up my daughter from school. I would ideally like to take care of pets during the day but I am flexible. We have a fenced in yard for your dog to run around in safely. I have also been trusted to take care of friends dogs while they are away, coming in to feed them, and either let them out in their yard or take them for a walk or to a dog park. I always prefer instructions to follow, just in case your dog has a particular timed routine, diet or other needs.
14. Molly S.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats and house sat for my friends and family for the past 15 years. I enjoy doing it and take pride in doing an excellent job I work full time from home. I would have plenty of time to drop in for a walk or play time, would love to have pups at my home for day care and am open to house sitting opportunities as well. I live in a dog friendly community with a dog park right near by and plenty of walking trails. Would love to play with your fur baby and take them for daily walks. Making sure they are happy and taken care of when you can’t be there.

About: I have been a veterinary technician since 2006. I have been in emergency medicine since 2014 and am animal CPR certified. I have also been in foster/rescue worker for over 5 years, working with dogs that are in need of many different levels of rehab. Additional fees do apply for any "medical" visitors. I work from home, my preferred availability is 7 days a week from 8am-4pm - I am flexible to work with those hours, just let me know and we can try to work something out; Boarding availability will be updated when I start offering this service and will include weekends as necessary for travel accommodations; I have a chain link - fully fenced-in backyard. For Boarders: We crate at bedtime to make sure that everyone is secure and sleeping with the rest of the homes routine. Outside of that, the animals have freedom to roam the house, lay about the couches and beds etc unless you otherwise prefer something else. Cage time is no exception in our home to prevent food aggression issues amongst the animals and to provide animals a break or safe haven if they wish to retreat from the house's activity level. I work from home, Monday - Friday 8am-4pm - and all dogs are free to roam in and out as the need. My office overlooks the entire backyard and is located at the back door where they go in and out. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly &active dog to keep those wanting to play going all day! Otherwise, we have places to lounge for those lazier dogs like my other dog, who prefers to sunbathe and lay in bed. I can crate if needed, we utilize this for feeding and treats to prevent jealousy issues.

“Fantastic servicr!! I've never had a dog sitter before, but Traci was Fantastic! She took care of my pup and helped work with her. I definitely recommend Traci, especially if you have a puppy.”
17. Taylor W.
“Taylor is a very compassionate and loving pet owner who loves being around and caring for animals. She grew up around dogs and thrives in a dog friendly atmosphere. I would highly recommend her to any of my friends and/or family to watch over and love on their pets while they are away.”
