About: I am very intuitive to what animals needs are. I’m patient and pets safety is my top priority! Comforting animals is a blessing that I can’t get enough of! My hours are a bit flexible but I am mainly have a lot of free time on Mondays & Fridays from 2-7. Saturdays and Sundays I am completely available. First off, I always read the directions multiple times. Make sure their food and leashes are easy to find. Then I always check the backyard before letting a dog out. I want to be sure there are no gaps in the fences or any other large wildlife they may want to chase. If in case of emergency, I would love to know what veterinary practice is used and emergency contacts if I’m not able to make direct contact.

“Gabby took care of our 14 year old chihuahua, Bella, in our home for a week while we were on vacation. She did an amazing job- great communication, very reliable and Bella loved her. Highly recommend!”

About: Ive taken care of my families dogs for the last 15 years and always made sure they were well cared for. Friends also entrusted me with the care of their animals knowing that I am no stranger to difficult animals and messy situations. I have also been a volunteer at local animal shelters and know how to handle larger and more difficult to walk animals. I have a senior dog now so I also understand the care that goes into helping animals who are struggling I have a dog in my home who has a torn ACL. He has difficulty with stairs and walks so I ice his leg daily and carry him up the stairs. I make sure also to feed him his medication and ensure he is always comfortable given his aches and pains. While I cannot do boarding, within other homes, I will walk and play with animals constantly. I love interacting with pets and find joy in spending time doing what animals love, whether it be snuggled up on the floor, playing tug of war or going on long walks. Any dietary needs or medical care animals require I am well equipped and prepared for all the above

“Taryn did a great job house sitting and watching our babies! She sent lots of pictures and made sure to do everything we instructed. Our older dog needs a little extra help with eating and getting around, she was great to give the extra care. We were very impressed and will certainly use her services again in the future!”

“Hired Dana to house/pet sit for the weekend. She took excellent care of our two dogs. She communicated with me over the weekend and shared plenty of pics.”

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: 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: I have over 10 plus years caring for animals. I have experience with small or medium dogs and especially cats. Administering medications, walking, feeding, playtime and everything in between! Experience pet sitting for friends and family and experience caring for a movement impaired dog and diabetic cat. Im currently a Mechanic/Welder as a full time job Monday through Friday for a local company in Jamesville. Available anytime on weekends and limited availability on weekdays after 3:30 PM. I treat everyone’s pets and home as I would my own. Drug free, non smoker and very respectful. The safety of your property and pets is my top priority. Developing trusting relationships with clients and delivering the service you expect is my goal.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all my life. Today I have a happy 11 year old Pomeranian mix. I grew up with black labs. I love to play fetch and hike with dogs whenever I can. I have a nice, safe yard for play time. I also live near a great dog park. I have taken care of dogs of all ages and make sure I understand their energy level and needs. I currently work from home and have flexible hours all week. I will have work meetings for a few hours a day. Looking forward to helping with your pup! I love to play fetch in the yard or walk dogs to the park if one is close. I am a responsible and will make sure your dog feels safe on our walks.

About: I have cared for my own dog for the past 13 years and sadly he died in February 2025. I walked him around my neighborhood consistently for all those years and now having that routine gone is difficult. Before having him as my own, I also helped take care of my families dog for several years. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages and demeanors and all sizes too :) I am attending SUNY Cortland right now and that is the only large barrier in my weekly schedule. I can care and/or walk dogs after 7pm on Monday and Wednesdays. I am available after 4pm on Tuesday and Thursday. Friday and Saturday I can provide care all day with a days notice. Without notice I will most likely be working on Friday and therefore not available until after 4pm that day. I can house-sit on Fridays and Saturdays and into Sunday afternoon as well! I will maintain a safe and calm environment for your pet while caring for them and allow them to initiate any desired games or actions. I am willing to accommodate however you prefer for your dog when caring for them, just let me know of anything necessary :) Any questions or concerns for your dog's care are welcomed and appreciated as I prefer a heads up in advance of anything unusual or to keep an eye out/for. Thanks :)

About: Tell your dog I said hi!!! I have taken care of pets since I was 10. My family and friends rely on me regularly to keep their homes and animals safe! I am in between jobs right now, so I have all the time to care for your loved ones and can stay at your home during the day if wanted! I unfortunately can't have pets at my apartment but dog sitting is a way to get my pet snuggles in! You'll receive cute pet pictures if you want as well! I would come to your home and meet your pets first and familiarize their routine with you before you leave. Very open with communication for your needs.

“Hayley was very attentive to both our golden retriever and 2 cats while we were on vacation for 9 days. I received photos twice a day. I could tell that the pets liked her from the moment they met, and they were in good hands. She not only took care of the pets, but the house was spotless when we returned! I would highly recommend Hayley for your pet sitting needs….”

“Talitha completely exceeded my expectations. She is responsive, caring and treated our pets like her own. Even my very slow to warm up rescue pup loved her. Rates are very restorable as well especially since she lives 30-35 minutes away. 10 stars are deserved 🙂”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. I never had a pet of my own until I met my former partner and he had a deaf Australian Shepard and I fell in love with her. A year after that we rescued a mix and named him Archer and he is the most loyal, loving dog I’ve ever met. I’ve also helped take care of my sisters mini poodle on and off for about 3 years so have experience with big and small dogs as well as deaf dogs. I work full time currently Monday through Friday but pet care would be something I can do in the evenings and weekends, while also spending time with my own dog. I have plenty of paths and places to walk dogs near my home and my complex has a dog park to play and use the bathroom

About: I have been around animals all my life. I have always done very well with dogs and have been taking care of my own, my family’s, and my friend’s dogs for as long as I can remember. I can handle all sorts. I am an active individual and do great with dogs that like to play or go for walks. My availability often varies. I work full time 8AM-4PM everyday of the week, but have time in the afternoons to see dogs. I am up through the night and can do appointments in the night as well. My weekends are typically free for appointments. I am a very attentive care giver. I will tend to all of your dog’s needs and pay close attention to their behaviors. I am good at following schedules and instructions. I am great at keeping dogs entertained and helping to get some energy let out. I am active and can take dogs for any length of a walk and play with them for however long is needed. I am able to handle all types of dogs.

About: I’ve loved dogs since I saw my first one. Caring for animals is one of my favorite things to do. I want to make sure they are so comfortable, it’s like you never left. My partner Rebecca is, naturally, every animal’s best friend. She brings a calming vibe to the space that is hard to achieve for everybody. I am 18 years old and a full time high school student meaning I will be available any time from Friday night - Sunday evening. We have a very carefully crafted schedule for all of our pets at home. Making the dog feel comfortable and cared for is my biggest priority.

“Noreen was great with Sanabel and caring for our home. We arrived home to a very happy dog. The communication was daily and detailed. House was very cared for and how we left it. I would highly recommend Noreen caring for your pet.”

About: Currently I've no pets or children living in my home. I've had several pets over the years. Right now full time ownership is not an option. This is the perfect job, getting to care for others babies!!❤ I do rescue work with another agency. This means I have passed safety and background checks. I would not be accepting appointments while I am holding a rescue animal. I've a good sized, fenced yard, in a quiet neighborhood. I look forward to the opportunity to spend time and care for your pets, for a day or a week, or any time in between.
