About: Hello! My name is Danielle and I’m a dedicated stay-at-home mom with a big heart and boundless energy. Caring for my family and my two beloved dogs has inspired me to extend my love and attention to other pets in need of a home-away-from-home. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and attentive to look after your furry family members. With a loving personality and a drive to create a safe, joyful environment, I’m committed to making sure your pets feel right at home. Whether your pet loves to play, snuggle, or simply relax, I’m here to provide personalized care and plenty of affection. I look forward to meeting your pets and giving them the love and attention they deserve! I am home daily and have availability to play, cuddle, love and watch your pets throughout the week. I do have one dog that lives in the home that loves to play and run. I have a fenced yard which will allow the dogs to play freely with or without my dog present. While in your home I will respect your wishes for your pet and can crate them if needed or administer any medications.

About: I have been an animal lover my entire life. I have had a variety of all animals such as dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, bearded dragons, etc for as long as I can remember. I’ve had exposure to animals of all age ranges. In the past, I have had senior dogs who have had seizure disorders and provided comfort care for them until the end including medications, pain management and helping them through challenging moments from their medical conditions. My focus and goal being apart of your pets care is to provide them a safe, comfortable, friendly environment while under my care and also just having fun! I have had dogs that I have worked with on behavioral modification training, leash training, potty training, etc. Although I am not a certified trainer, I have had exposure to reward and positive reinforcement training and have worked on this closely with a trainer and my own animals and have seen the benefits. I am looking forward to being a positive impact on your sanity and your pets care! I currently am out of work and expecting a little one! With all of my free time, I’d love to put it towards doing something I love and enjoy, spending it with animals! In my clients home, I would ensure that all pets needs are met with food, water, stimulation with play, etc. For safety I would leash the pet before opening the door for a walk and ensuring the pet is tamed and not too excitable walking out the door to avoid any accidents. I would utilize any tools the owner provided such as crates, gates, etc while caring for the pet. For care in my home, I have a fenced in yard and 4 dogs, 2 cats. I would slowly introduce them to each other and have gates available along with 3 different floors in my home to separate if need be. I have crates available if needed to give space. I am always home and would never need to leave your pet alone! I have plenty of toys and treats ready to go!

About: Some people have photo albums full of babies and friends. I have a gallery of animals I’ve befriended—on sidewalks, in parks, on farms, and even in random parking lots. Sometimes I even go to the dog park just to hang out with dogs and soak up their joyful energy. My friends know I’ll stop mid-sentence to meet a dog. Provided the owner approves, I introduce myself, learn about the breed and its story, snap a few pics, and send a text introducing the pet to my mom, son, sister, and niece—like it’s breaking news. (They’ve come to expect this. It’s basically a subscription service now.) I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet. When I traveled, it meant everything to me that the person watching my dog and cats would love them like their own. That’s exactly how I approach every pet I care for. Whether your dog is playful, shy, high-energy, or a couch potato, I’ll meet them where they are and treat them like family. I follow their routine, keep you updated with happy pics, and make sure they feel safe, calm, and cared for until you return. I grew up with dogs, and over the years, friends have entrusted me with both their homes and their beloved pets. Just this year, I’ve cared for: – Five sweet—but high-maintenance Chihuahuas (yes, all at once!) – Seven animals in one home: a high-energy Mexican street dog rescue and six cats (including three feral kittens and three indoor/outdoor adults) – A mature lab/retriever mix – And my beloved grand-dog 💛 If your dog boards with us, welcome to Camp Mimi! 🐾 Here, they’ll get a double dose of attention and affection. My love for animals started with my mom, who always had dogs by her side — first dachshunds (my aunt bred them!), and later, energetic border collies and loyal Australian shepherds. Caring for animals runs in the family, and at Camp Mimi, your pup becomes part of the pack. They will have a spacious yard, squirrels to chase, room to play, a pool to cool off in, and daily walks tailored to your pup’s needs—it’s like a dog’s dream vacation. Check out the Camp Mimi photos – you may want to stay here too! Not boarding? I also offer drop-in visits and dog walking at your home, with the same loving care and attention. I’m also a professional organizer and gardener, so I bring a natural sense of order, calm, and care into every space I’m in. Should you want me to stay in your home, I can be available for extended periods of time. You can count on me to keep your home and garden tidy, peaceful, and well-tended, just as you left them—or maybe even a little better. If you're looking for someone your pet will genuinely want to see again— I’d be honored to be a loving steward of your pet(s) and your home while you’re away. My schedule is flexible and I have a car. I can pop in for a quick visit or spend time with your furry one(s). Walks, playtime, or whatever you need. How I Care for Pets in My Home At Camp Mimi — affectionately named after my mom, whose lifelong devotion to dogs inspired my own — your pet becomes part of the family. We offer a cozy, calm environment with room to roam, squirrels to chase, and even a pup-approved pool to splash in. I follow your dog’s routine closely — walks, meals, meds, naps — to keep them feeling safe and loved. We are home most of the day, so they’ll get tons of attention, snuggles, and regular photo updates from their stay at Camp Mimi. Bonus: We are home most of the day, so they’ll rarely be alone. 🐾 How I Care for Pets in Their Home When I’m caring for pets in their own home, I treat your space and routine with great respect. I keep pets on their normal schedule — walks, meals, meds, bedtime — and send regular updates with photos so you know they’re happy and safe. Whether they’re energetic explorers or sofa snugglers, I match their vibe and keep them comfortable while you’re away. I also bring a professional touch: I’m a seasoned house sitter, gardener, and organizer, so your home will be well cared for too.

About: Hello! My name is Alyssa it’s such a pleasure to meet you! ☺️ I came to rover because I wanted to try something new and hopefully meet new friends and help their animals! I am a nurse and I also love waitressing on the side. My time has recently opened up which is why I’m trying this place out! I’ve raised cats my entire life and I’ve been raising German Shepherds for the last 2-3 years. I’m experienced with caring for sick animals as my first German Shepherd was special needs and so my 10 year old cat named Nico. I’m comfortable giving medication and I know many tricks to administering it to those who like to spit it out haha! I’m experienced handling working breed dogs and love training them! I’ve also been told many times I’m a cat whisperer and seem to win over even the most introverted cats 🤣 Having the ability to care for others and animals is my biggest accomplishment and blessing! I look forward to hopefully meet with you soon!! My schedule has been recently freed up so I’ve been prioritizing training my dog and doing self care! Scheduling is currently very flexible for me and I’ll update here when things change! As you may have guessed my life is pretty crazy busy 🤣🤣 but I do thrive off of the busy schedule and love being productive with my time! When it comes to my shepherd and cats, a consistent routine is always something I always create around my schedule! Routine is very important for pets and they can be stressed without it! Feeding, nap, play, and bedtime I always strive to keep consistent within a reasonable time frame. This is also what i strive for when caring for someone else’s pets as a primary way to keep stress to a minimum for them. When it comes to working breed dogs like mine, I like to allow around two hours daily of walking, training, and play to fulfill their psychological and physical needs. When I am caring for another person’s animal, I also love to help out in other ways such as basic chores around the house during down time! Cleaning is very therapeutic for me and I always love to help out when able to! However I do respect any and all boundaries on whatever you’re comfortable or not comfortable with!

About: I'm new to the pet service job, but I've owned two dogs since they were puppies. I have visited cats to clean their boxes and play with them, on behalf of friends that went away. I'm currently unemployed doing part-time jobs, so I have a lot of availability. I love both dogs and cats, and don't mind playing with them. I make sure my 6-year old Jack Russel mix, Finn, gets plenty of exercise and socialization. I take long walks in my neighborhood and enjoy taking him to the dog park.

“Very friendly, always on time, and was great with taking my dog for walks while I was away! Would definitely recommend.”

About: I have had dogs around me my whole life. I received a dog of my own when I was 11 years old. She was the runt of the litter and was only a pound and a half. Therefore I needed to keep a very close eye on her and treat her with a light hand. She is now 15 years old and still in very good health. I feel dogs are part of the family.

About: I've grown up in a household full of all sorts of animals, from dogs to reptiles and even rodents. I have loads of experience with big animals and do not mind high energy pets. I have also volunteered at farms and just have a big passion for taking care of animals! Senior babies, disabilities, or litters won't scare me off, since I've handled those too! I'm days away from graduating high school, and would love to get into full time pet care since I'm working to get into a vet school. My schedule is pretty open and I'd love to help anyone at any moment with their fur babies! I've lived in a dog household for most of my childhood, but currently have a bearded dragon and tarantula. I used to own a cat, and even took care of her litter when she had babies! All of them were healthy and now have loving homes❤️ I used to take care of a senior dog for my neighbor who had a disability which could make him agressive if you made a move he didn't like, even after a few bites I still understood him and continued looking after him!
