About: Hi! I’m Haley, and I’ve had a love for dogs for as long as I can remember. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old, and for the past 2 years I’ve had the privilege of working as a professional dog groomer. Every day, I get to build trust with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities—from playful puppies to sweet seniors and even nervous or anxious pups. Being a groomer has taught me so much about canine behavior, patience, and creating a calm, positive environment where every dog feels safe and loved. I know that every pet is unique, and I take the time to earn their trust while making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I understand that leaving your furry family member with someone else can be difficult. That’s why I promise to care for your pet the same way I would my own—with kindness, patience, lots of love, and plenty of belly rubs, playtime, and cuddles. Whether we’re going for a walk, playing fetch, or simply relaxing together, my goal is to make sure your pet feels right at home until you’re back. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! 🤍🐾 Pet care is my priority, and I keep a flexible schedule that allows me to give each pet the time and attention they deserve. Because I work independently, I’m able to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits whenever possible. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a long walk, or extra love and companionship while you’re away, I’ll do my best to work around your schedule and provide dependable, consistent care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always come first. Since I provide care in your home, I do everything I can to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I’ll carefully follow your feeding schedule, walking routine, medication instructions, and any special requests to make sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away. As a professional dog groomer, I’m experienced with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I understand canine body language and know how to safely handle nervous, energetic, shy, or senior dogs with patience and kindness. I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in caring, trustworthy hands. 🤍🐾

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I have 2 dogs and 3 cats at home. My family has always been heavily involved in animal rescue and rehabilitation. I typically work early in the morning and only a couple days per week, there is nearly always someone in my house, if you were to board with me. I typically work from approximately 4am-9am and spend the days with my toddler after I’m off. Your pet would spend the day either by playing in the yard, going on an adventure, or enjoying a relaxing day on the couch. I want your pets to have the most relaxed experience possible while they’re away from home. My yard is completely fenced in and my two dogs, (a 35lb beagle mix and a 50 lb shepherd mix) love other dogs and will be happy to keep your pup company. We also have plenty of space if your pup would prefer some quiet time.

“My dog doesn’t deal with change very well but she has gone to being very stand offish to allowing Nikki to leash and walk her. She doesn’t pull on the leash for Nikki like she does for me. I’m unable to walk Sassy and am thankful I found Nikki on Rover. Nikki pays attention to Sassy and has helped her deal with har anxiety. I know Sassy is getting the best care while Nikki has her. Highly recommend Nikki!”

“Mckinzey has been great with our pup Coco. She has been reliable, professional, and patient with Coco’s hesitation and vocalization surrounding people she doesn’t know.”

About: My husband Jeff and I have 2 dogs and no kids. Our dogs are our kids! Our dogs are about 2 years old and get along well with other dogs. Both of us grew up with dogs and have had dogs that are both young and senior. We give our dogs lots of time and attention. We are responsible pet owners and believe in keeping them healthy, loved, safe, and part of our pack! I am retired and my husband works part-time so one of us is almost always home to care for your pet(s). If we are gone for a few hours, our dogs are caged in the house. Usually, it is if we go out for dinner or the store, so it's for short periods. If your dog does not do caging, that's ok as long as they are good! We have a large fenced yard. Our 6 foot privacy fence also has wire mesh at the bottom of the fence to make sure dogs are safe and can't get out (or other animals get in). Our dogs are about 3 years old and get along well with other dogs. They love to play and are free to move in the house and the yard, and they get regular walks. Dogs are allowed on furniture. We would love to be your pet sitter while you are away, and you can be confident your doggie will be happy, safe and loved!

About: I have watched dogs ever since I was little. I started with a family friends two huskies. They loved to run in their yard and would come visit us on days that we weren't watching them by jumping the fence. When I was 10 or 11 we got our first dog and then we got another a few years later. My wife and I now have three dogs all of which are rescues. I can help with any animals so long as I have a few days heads up that you need help. I have experience watching pretty much every kind of pet from snakes to horses. If you need your dog, or even your cat, walked than I will be happy to help. I can even just stop by to make sure that everyone has a chance to go outside throughout the day. I can stop by and just sit with your pets or I can take them out into the yard and run or throw the ball with them. I am also happy to take them out on long or short walks depending on the pets needs and age. If anybody need medicine I have plenty of experience giving it to them as well as giving dogs physical therapy while recovering from surgery.

About: My mother has a dog sitting business called Your Place or Mine that I help her with regularly. I got on Rover to make some extra money while I'm in college. Furthermore, I've owned and taken care of dogs my whole life. Even now I have two of my own dogs. Since my Mom's more experienced with watching animals, she may help me with jobs from time to time. I work part-time and also go to school part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to stay with your pet(s) and check on them. I'll check on your pet(s) periodically and care for them as I'm instructed. I also have prior experience caring for older animals and animals who take oral medications or shots.

About: I have grown up with a variety of pets and since 16 years of age, I have taken care of my own pets, fosters who I have rescued, and many others. I want to be able to meet more furry friends as I find joy in seeing them thrive and be taken care of! I am experienced in: ~ Taking care of several breeds of dogs, both puppies and seniors. I have taken care of Vislas, Doodles, Labradors, Havaneses, Corgis, bully breeds, Daschunds and many mixed breeds. ~ Cats - fostering, rescuing, and owning (experience specified in the cat care section) ~ Rex Rabbit - I used to own a rex rabbit (she was gifted to someone else who could not take care of her and I took her in). I am aware of the clean up, feeding, changing of water, and moods rabbits can have. My Experienced Services: ~ Walking, brushing, efficiently scheduling stopping in for potty breaks, administering medicine, feeding, cleaning up bedding/pets personal space, and caring for multiple animals at a time ~ I love to run (but not the most skilled) especially with high energy dogs who enjoy running/hiking. ~ I am a big proprietor of communication and organization, I will send photos of your pets every day of the scheduled timeframe (unless asked not to) and will provide a short report about the service and how your furry friend did during our specified time. ~ If you have a reactive dog, I MUST know beforehand and discuss with you on what the dog is reactive to as well as my conditions in walking the dog before we book any time. Any withholding of critical information about reactivity is automatically the owner's responsibility to all liability for any damage or injury and could lead to disengagement of current and future services. I currently work remotely as an administrative assistant and am in a master's program online, so I am pretty flexible in scheduling. I will collaborate with you on what would work best for both parties on all drop ins, house sits, or walking appointments. I do not offer services in my own home as I am leasing, however, all services provided for your pet and home are approached with care and safety in mind. ~ There is too high of a risk to bring dogs into a dog park/ socialize with other dogs, unless the owner specifies dogs that are on the "safe" list so I usually skip this. ~ All food, treats, and toys are under the owners guidance/ approval to give (no new/ unapproved items will be given). ~ I do request if the owner has a specific emergency vet or emergency contact, in case something happens and I have to take your furry friend to be checked on. ~ I lock up every time I leave the house and I am happy to use a security system if the owner requests.

“Risa was great! Communicates in a timely manner and was willing to come meet our pup prior to our scheduled day since it was his first time with her.”

About: Hi! I'm Carisse, I have one cat of my own named Gamora, and I've taken care of dogs in the past. I am very good at following specific and/or unique care instructions, and will do my very best to ensure that both you and your pet have a good experience with my care! I'm available for sitting during late afternoon, evening, weekends, and overnight! I currently work from 9 to 3, but other than that I'm free. I take care to keep pets in the designated area(s), and follow care instructions regarding walks, play, feeding, and grooming (etc.) to a t!

About: I've had dogs ever since I was 10, but my experience with them goes far beyond that. When I was a little kid, before I ever had a dog, I would go to this read with a dog program called "Paws to Read." I would spend countless hours reading to the dogs and befriending them, along with a cat or two here and there. When I was 10, I got my first dog, a husky, and gave him a wonderful life. He had quite a few medical issues and behaved older for his age because of it, so I know how to provide senior pet care. He has since passed, but my two current dogs, one pitbull and one pitsky, remind me every day how important pets are to me. I've had them both for eight years now, during which we've taken numerous car rides, walks, enjoyed outside and inside playtime, movie nights, and anything a dog could dream of. Now, while I've never had a cat because of the majority of my family being allergic, I never turn away from a cat. I'm a regular at the Gem City Catfe, where I play with the cats often and have gone so often that they are comfortable with me. I keep cat and dog treats on me in case I come across a stray, because all cats and dogs deserve to feel some love. I've also dog-sat and house-sat for a few friends before, so I know how to handle situations like pets not getting along, bathroom accidents, and being a bit of a picky eater. Currently, I am a full time student and work full time at UDRI (UD's Research Institute) from 8:30am - 3:30am. During the summer I won't be taking any in person classes, just two online. But when I return to UD for my final year, I will be taking classes again and may be slightly more limited. When it comes to my pets and caring for clients pets, the comfort of the pet is most important to me. Personally, my two dogs don't get along with each other very well, so they typically have to be separated. Even so, I always make sure to treat them both equally and give them lots of love! If I take one for a car ride and ice cream, I bring ice cream back for the other and take the other for a car ride later that week. If my client has dogs similar to mine, who need to be separated, I would be sure to treat them equally and split my time with them according to my client's requests. Given single-pet households, I'd spend a lot of my time with them! In my downtime, I'd make sure to sit with them while I work on coursework. I'd be sure to take them on walks and go for potty breaks. And of course I'd make sure we get a lot of play time in and lots of love!

About: I have grown up with & cared for dogs my whole life. Big and small. Feisty and sweet. I'd love to help care for yours! I am a military spouse and stay-at-home-mom. My schedule is pretty flexible and I would love to care for your pets in my spare time! I have two friendly dogs and one cat in my home. I will make sure your dog is safely monitored while you're away. I will also safely crate your dog while Im away, if needed. My yard is fenced, but for added peace of mind, I will always watch your dog while in the yard. I can also take them on walks for added enrichment, if needed.
