About: I grew up around all sorts of animals, I’ve been working with and training dogs since I was 12, so I’ve been doing that for six years now. I plan to someday make a career out of that, as I’m now very advanced with obedience and trick training. I have also trained my cats how to do tricks. I’ve been pet sitting for about four years, and I absolutely love getting the opportunity to meet different animals with all different personalities. I’ve also worked with rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets, hamsters, fish, and farmlife! I’m available pretty much every day, often more available during weekdays, but weekends I’m usually free as well to do drop in visits, walks, etc. throughout the day! I can adapt to any routine needed, I take all routines very seriously because I know how important it is for pets to stick to a schedule. I will make sure to spend time with the pets as well, rather than just stopping in, feeding them and leaving, because I want them to feel comfort while their owners are away.

About: I have spent al my childhood and teenage years at my grandparents farm house full of chickens, pigs, cows, geese, cats and dogs helping my grandparents. College, a baby and an apartment we lived in for several years did not allow me to have an opportunity to be a pet owner as well as a pet sitter, however, now as I own a house near a park and have flexibility working online, I am happy to help families who need to travel, spend a few days out of the house or need just a few quiet hours and space with watching their pets. I have my whole heart, time and space to make sure your pets are safe and happy while you are away. I am working online with totally flexible hours. Can walk with your pet as much as needed as well as spend an evening outside as we take our evening walk out in a greenway I have a house with a fenced back deck and will follow instructions you would provide me with to make sure your pet receives all time and attention he needs. I’ll enjoy playing and running and as much hugs as your pet will allow me to do

“Marissa is fantastic! She came over for a meet and greet at my request prior to the first walk. She then sent notes and pictures from her walk with my pups. She is very easy to communicate with. I will definitely use her again!”


“Ruby is not an easy dog to deal with, but Kerrie has been very patient and professional. She has gone above and beyond to ensure Ruby feels comfortable. Can’t recommend her enough!”


About: I’ve trained a 1-year-old Doberman and lived with a Pomeranian and Shiba Inu for several years as their daily companion. I've also had a full course of private training sessions (1 on 1) with Petsmart trainer, so I am very adept at making sure your dog is comfortable and well taken care of. From feeding to playtime, I was involved in every part of their care. I have a calm, friendly energy that dogs naturally gravitate toward—it’s like magic how quickly they bond with me! I combine hands-on training experience with daily companionship, giving me insight into each dog’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s energetic play or gentle senior care, I adapt with ease and genuine love. Dogs don’t just tolerate me—they truly enjoy being around me. I will always take pictures and videos and send them to owners frequently, to make sure your pets are enjoying every moment with me. My wife and I like to keep a very clean house to make sure all visiting dogs have a comfortable environment. I am working from home remotely, so the timing is pretty flexible to take care of dogs any time on weekday or weekends, day and night. Whether in my home or yours, your dog’s safety and comfort come first. I keep a clean, pet-friendly space with no hazards, and I always follow your care instructions closely—meals, walks, meds, and routines. I build trust through calm, respectful handling and constant supervision. I make sure pets feel secure, loved, and part of the family, whether they’re here for the day or overnight.

“I have used Sarahbelle as my dog walker for multiple days now and am very impressed! She is so responsive to my messages and the sweetest to my dog. She also has sent me some of the cutest pictures of my dog that I have seen. He always looks really happy! Would 100% recommend.”



“Eliza took amazing care of Milo and was very conscientious of his hip that is arthritic. They are very punctual and took several great pictures every time they walked Milo. Eliza gave him lots of love and pampered him every visit. I would absolutely have Elize take care of Milo again. Highly recommend!”


About: Animals have always been part of my life! At home, we have Iris, a 7-year-old rescue cat, and Sandy, an 8-month-old Goldendoodle puppy. I’ve also volunteered at a shelter walking dogs. I’ll give your pet lots of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I’m available all 7 days a week. Sometimes I need to pick up or drop off my sons for their activities, but we can always agree on a time that works for you. At my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly space with fresh water always available and a cozy spot to rest. When caring for pets in your home, I treat it like my own — following your instructions, keeping their routine, and making sure they feel loved, safe, and happy.

“I had booked Suzie once before and she was great. So I didn't hesitate to ask again for a 2 day trip out of state. My 70+ lb sweetheart happened to get some sort of bug the day we left. A doggie who never has accidents inside had left a pretty bad mess for her to find on her first visit. And again on the 2nd. I was very stressed, but Suzie took care of everything and I was able to have some peace of mind that it would be okay. I came home to a clean floor and a happy pup. Suzie is THE person you want to be responsible for your loved one. Cannot possibly recommend enough!”

I work from home several times a week, so I have flexibility in my schedule! We have two dogs of our own and ensure that are schedules align to take the best care of our pups. We take dogs on several walks throughout the day. We do not have a fenced in yard, so we make sure to use leashes and harnesses.

About: Hello, my name is Sara. I am a full-time pet sitter who genuinely loves being with and taking care of pets. I have experience with a variety of different animals including dogs, cats, fish, chicken, rabbits, turtles to name a few. I have always lived with and taken care of animals of differing ages for over 25+ years now. I have experience with pets who needed care with IV and oral medication. I would love to take care of your loved one while you are away and will offer a peace of mind in knowing that they are in good hands. I have a young child and a husband who are all at home as well so there is always someone at home. We recently lost our family dog of thirteen years through old age. We miss him dearly. I look forward to dedicating my full attention and showering your pet with love. Long time user of rover, so I know how it goes! All hours of the day or week works are open to watch over your pet. Please notify me of any allergies or medications and care instructions. I will provide your specific care needs for your pet while in my care.

About: I grew up in a dog training and breeder household. I LOVED helping my mother care for the new puppies and watching my father train obedience classes! I am comfortable with all dogs and grew up with labs and shepards. I am very active and take my boys on 4 mile walks every morning. I would love to love on your fur baby and take them on walks or cuddle up on the couch for a movie! I have several brain activities I love to do with dogs, like hide and seek or frozen treats! I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I am able to help care for your lovies in throughout the day in your home or in my own. I am very active and love taking the dogs for a nice long walk and then rewarding them with a sweet treat! I love building the relationship with each animal and meet them where they are most comfortable. If they are more active, like my shepard, then I would love bonding with them on long walks. If they are a bit more relaxed like my lab, then cuddling up on the couch for a movie or doing a indoor brain activity like Hide and Seek is always a treat!
