“Jill has been working with us walking, our dog Flynn, for 6 months now without an issue. She has great communication and flexibility working with us and our changing schedules. We are very glad that we were able to find someone so dependable and look forward to continuing to work with Jill.”

About: I’ve grown up having a dog in my family all my life. Because of this, caring for and connecting with pets comes naturally to me. My family recently got a puppy so I have fresh experience caring for puppies. Not too long ago, we had 2 senior dogs, one of which had a diaper so I also have experience with that. I believe just because you have a busy schedule, you shouldn’t have to miss out on having a pet so I’m happy to help assist in the care of your furry friend! I’m currently a registered nurse and have a couple days off during the week. These days vary weekly so I am to be flexible and assist with last minute plans. I have a fenced in yard. I also have no pets of my own at the moment so they will have the place to themselves!
About: I have been around animals my whole life. My range of experience goes from new born puppies and up. I have been dog sitting for my neighbor and some family friends for about 2 years now. I work 2 overnights a week at my job Sunday night and Tuesday night but would still be able to help out at night before going in and in the morning after I get out. I can make any accommodations for any of your animals needs whether that’s needing to only go out on a leash or following specific training plans.

About: I trained my dog when we got him 6 years ago. I also watch my family members animals when they’re out of town. Finally I frequently housesit for people. During my breaks throughout the day I come home to check on my dog and any other animals I am watching. I am used to working my schedule around the dogs schedule that I am caring for. I prioritize letting them out and making sure they have food and company. I am used to be around and responsible for animals 7 days a week. I make sure to spend time with my pets and the pets I am watching. I will sit with them, play with them, and make sure they aren’t alone for more than 8 hours at a time. I will also put on music or the TV for them while I am gone so they don’t get lonely.
About: Having been through a fairly traumatic dog attack myself, I made it my mission to learn all about dog's behavior and why they do what they do. I have studied different ways of training and learning how to react to certain situations with them. I promise to love and give all the fun play time, cuddle time, and attention to your favorite furry friend! Your doggy can sleep in my bed and hang out on the couch. If you are anything like me, your dog is your best friend and child! I had an amazing female Boston Terrier who lived to 13 1/2. I am versed in care of elderly dogs. My new venture is a deaf puppy. We are learning hand signals for training. He is very friendly and loves to make new friends. If you have any questions about what I'm willing to do, or can and can't do, please don't hesitate to ask me! I work for a family business, and can bring my dog to work. Therefore, your pup will be able to come to work with me! I will love your baby as if it was my own. Dogs will always be leashed outside. They are allowed on furniture here and are welcome to snuggle anytime! But if you have different rules , please tell me so I can abide by them.

I had my golden retriever Jake, for 15 years, and I currently have a cat named Lulu who is 9 years old. I have previous experience in working with both cats and dogs who have required care. This included checking in on them as well as feeding, walking and playing with them. I really love animals and love that every pet has their own unique personality. I know that animals always bring a smile to my face, and it is my goal that I can return the favor and make them happy as well. I would love to have the opportunity to care for your fur baby!

About: I have lived with dogs my whole life. I love walking and running with dogs and of course play time! I have owned small to large dogs of all different breeds. I currently have a Red Bone Coon Hound, which is a very energetic dog. I am able to keep her busy all day and manage to tired her out (somehow). I take her for long walks, run most of it, and also take her in a creek by my house. My hours are pretty flexible and can change according to you or your dogs needs. Since I have grown up with dogs I know how to properly take care of them so there will be nothing to worry about! Any questions feel free to ask!
About: I started longer-term overnight dog sitting about three years ago. I do frequent daytime potty breaks for friends when they are out of town. I have watched cats as well. I worked as a veterinary assistant for two years and I enjoy both cat and dog snuggles. Not currently working much, schedule is flexible which is ideal for your puppies that may need potty breaks while you are at work during the day or away on weekends. Unfortunately, I will only go to the clients home. I will not bring other animals into my house. I do own a cat and this is something my husband and I have agreed on.
“Amber was amazing! She was quick to respond, incredibly kind, and clearly a true dog lover. I had complete peace of mind during my trip knowing my dog was in great hands. Thank you, Amber — I’ll definitely be reaching out again!”
About: Along with being a certified veterinary assistant and working in the field, I, myself have been taking care of my own animals for nearly a decade! Including but not limited to, fostering dogs of all ages and breed, and rescuing pretty much every cat I come across (We're at four and counting!). I have trained experience in administering medication and senior pet care. It's important to me, as a fellow pet parent, that your furry friend is in great hands in my care, giving you peace of mind while you're away. Currently, I am relocating to East Ridge, TN all the way from New York! While in the process of looking for a full-time position, I've decided to join Rover, which means my availability is wide open! Don't fret, I plan to still offer my services even after finding something long-term. My services will be strictly offered in my client's home, as my animals do better without the presence of other animals. If provided with detailed instructions on what works best for you and your pet, I will be sure to follow them to the letter.
About: My petsitting career has extended over the course of approx eight years. My experience has allowed me to provide quality care for pets while their families are away. I also have previously worked for a vet clinic and from those experiences I have gained more knowledge and a strong compassion for animals. I have watched diabetic animals, as well as others with physical disabilities. Above all, I will make sure your animal(s) are safe and happy! References available Please contact me with any questions! I’m a recent college graduate ‘22 (B.S), and love to spend time with dogs in my spare time 😊 I am generally free late evenings and weekends/extended stay if you need help with your dog(s)! I have a reliable source of transportation, and can ensure that I will keep your pets needs in mind when walking and/or letting them out.
About: I own 2 cats and 10 month old puppy. I have fostered two cats, boarded various dogs, and cared for dogs using apps like this.

Allow me to care for your pet as I would my own! I am a full time teacher and have many breaks throughout the school year. I also have plenty of time after work and on the weekends to spend some free time caring for pets. My partner and I share the current workload of having a puppy and two cats. I have two indoor cats and a puppy that are friendly. I have an apartment in a large development with lots of yard, walking trails, and parks. My apartment is a two bedroom with plenty of space for a dog to wander comfortably.
