“Jessica is hands down the best! We’ve been repeat customers over the last couple years & have a great experience every single time 🙌 Always so friendly & great to work with. Feels good knowing our fur baby is in good hands! 🐶♥️”
“David and Lauren were wonderful with Max! Very communicative, and lots of updates on how he was doing. I had a last minute change of plans, and another quick trip to book and they were extremely flexible and accommodating. I felt very good leaving Max in their hands while I was gone.”
About: I’ve been actively involved in animal rescue since 2012, volunteering, fostering, and transporting animal with CAA/EBR shelter. Currently i’m on the board and volunteer with Barking Wishes, a senior dog sanctuary in Central, where I spend time caring for and advocating for older dogs. I’m the proud pet parent of two rescue pets - one dog (a 9 year old Beagle mix and a 10 year old Tortie cat. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, giving me extensive experience with pets of all ages, temperaments, and care needs. Now that I’m retired, I have a flexible, open schedule seven days a week, including most holidays. I’m happy to work closely with each client to meet their pet’s unique needs. I carefully follow all care instructions and provide regular updates, including at least one photo per day (or more if requested), so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. I’m recently retired so my schedule is open 7 days a week and most holidays. I’m willing to work with clients in order to care for their pet. I follow all instructions given by the owner. Depending on the client, I send at least 1 picture a day and give updates as requested.
About: I personally have had a bearded dragon, betta fish, a horse, I have worked at a barn, I worked at a vet clinic for 2 years, I have 3 cats of varying ages, I have 2 dogs. And had cared for my senior dog until she was 16 with all her medical needs. I have raised two of my dogs from puppies. I have bottle fed orphaned kittens. I have dealt with reactive dogs. My animals have taught me a lot. I work a lot already and I am in school but I am trying to save. So mornings and evenings are easiest for me to manage. I am flexible to the environment the animal is in and am willing to adapt to their current routine. If they need walks or play time or just let out in the yard.
About: Part time for Rover but will give you and your baby my full time attention! I love animals and I even used to work at a no-kill Animal Shelter (I don't have veterinarian experience). I've lived on a farm for 10 years and had plenty of pets, exotic and native, so I'm familiar with the oddities that come with the territory of an animal that can't really tell you what's wrong. I own two 6 year old 20lb fur babies myself and they are the friendliest cats you could meet. They love Dogs but if you're pup doesn't like cats that's okay. We can work out dog sitting or taking them for a walk! I can't wait to meet you and your babies! Pick me!
“Debra took great care of my boys while I had to go out of town and was able to book her on short notice. Excellent updates and communication and even helped with ailments for my older good boy Zeus. Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve loved dogs since I was little—they’re my favorite thing on this earth. I started pet sitting 2 years ago and it’s been a joy ever since. I provide feeding, watering, walks, bathroom breaks, medication if needed, and even overnight stays to ensure your pets get the best care possible. I only go to school 3 days a week and not for long at all, so my school schedule never interferes with my pet sitting schedule! I have a fenced in yard and 2 small dogs at home! My dogs do not have any problems with other dogs but I do keep them separated from other peoples dogs just in case! I never let them out my site at mine or a clients home.
“Christen did such an amazing job taking care of our dog and cat! I really appreciated the walks and photos. I definitely felt that Mango and Virgo were getting great care with Christen, allowing for me and my girls to have a wonderful vacation.”
“Ms. Jamryiah was very kind and patient with both me and my dog. I was initially nervous about allowing someone into my home and trusting them to care for my dog, but she did an excellent job. She communicated effectively throughout the process, and my dog truly enjoyed his time with her. I highly appreciate her professionalism and care.”
