About: I am new to the app so I don’t have many reviews yet. But rest assured, I have lots of experience with house sitting and dog care. I would love to help you with other duties, including taking in mail, watering plants, keeping the place clean and tidy, etc. I have been the go-to-girl to dog sit and dog walk for all my friends, family, and neighbors since high school. I absolutely love to get to hangout with dogs and get my steps in! It would be a privilege to care for your precious pups! I am a doctor of physical therapy student at the KU Med Center. I have a 10 year old pug of my own named Beatrix, she is precious! I am never away from Bea for more than 5 hours at a time…but it usually is not that long. I am a homebody! And I dont mind at all to structure my schedule around caring for her, play and potty breaks, and three 30min walks/day. During the 2 days/week that I am in class from 8-5, I run home during lunch to take her out. I would do the same with your dogs as well! I have a flexible schedule that can allow me to work around your pups usual routine. I am able to take your dog out in your backyard or on a walk for potty breaks as often as needed. If I am house sitting for you, I would need to bring my 10 year old pug Beatrix to stay as well. She is easygoing and gets along great with other dogs. When I need dog care, I use Rover too! So Bea has spent a lot of time with new dogs in new homes. As a dog owner and Rover user myself, I understand how important it is to feel confident that your dog is safe, well cared for, and happy while in the care of someone new.

About: I grew up with dogs and cats, have fostered in the past, and continue to care for my friend’s pets while they are away. I am open to house-sit, drop in, or go on however long of a walk your best friend needs. I have a lot of experience taking care of pets in their own homes, making sure they are safe and comfortable. I have experience with different breeds and temperaments - cuddlers, partiers, grouches, and loungers all deserve love! I can’t wait to spend time with your best friend and give you peace of mind. I work full time, but work from home Mondays and Fridays. Currently I could do drop-ins and walks anytime Fridays through Mondays. For Tuesday through Thursday, I would only be available early morning and evening. I’m available any day for house sitting stays which includes overnight care in your home with evening and morning routines. We can discuss if midday drop-in or walk are needed on the days i’m in the office. Drop-ins include feeding, water refresh, play/potty time, and quick updates. Walks include a 30-minute walk at your dog’s usual pace, leash handling, water refill if needed, and notes to the owner. If your dog needs longer than 30 minutes, Incan also do a longer walk for an hour. I make a point to ensure pets are following their schedules and any training they are working on. I always make sure to double check any needs/wants with the owner, to make sure pets are at their most comfortable. Let me know how your pet thrives in their environment, the more details the better! I will keep you updated on anything you specifically ask, or of any questions I might have that will help me get to know your pet better.

About: I've been relied upon by neighbors for years to dog-sit, dog-walk, and pet-sit for cats as well. I'm a big lover of all animals and grew up with dogs, cats, and even chickens! I started caring for these animals at an early age, handling tasks such as feeding, scooping litter, picking up dog droppings, and cleaning the chicken coop. We have an old cat with kidney and heart problems ourselves who needs to be pilled and have a cream applied to his ear twice a day. I understand how our pets are, quite literally, additional family members to the household, and I recognize the importance of ensuring they are loved and cared for, just like all of us!!! I’m a huge fan of walking and this fits into my daily and weekly routine. I also love the social aspect of meeting new people and pets are ALWAYS the best way to meet new people! I can easily drive to your home to walk your dog in the your neighborhood. I’m gentle, friendly and love a big scratch on an animals bottom(if they are welcome to it of course!)

About: I have experience with a variety of breeds and sizes. I have interacted with not only plenty of dogs but cats and other animals as well! From super welcoming to anxious I can get along with almost any animal. I alternate working mornings and evenings from week to week, I am available for early morning care or later evening care depending on the week. Additionally I work every other weekend but always off early afternoon so I have a lot of flexibility on those days! If you have a busy schedule and need a daily walk or drop in I can usually accommodate that. A happy, healthy, and stress free pet is the ultimate goal! I will do whatever is needed to make sure that your pet is comfortable and well cared for during my time with them.

About: With 6+ years of animal care I promise to be able to fulfill any animal need that you might require. My focus is mostly on dogs and cats, old and young, but I have worked with smaller animals such as hamsters and birds. I’m a remote worker so anytime of day I’m available! it would make my day to be able to help a furry friend. I work remote as a writer and usually get my work done in the first two hours of the day. That gives me a lot of flexibility to work with other schedules I have two cats, and they are treated like children. Anything that they want they get and their health is top priority. They fed the best food that is veterinarian recommended, all the play times and love they need, and are treated as family.

About: I have been pet sitting for friends and family for years and cannot wait to expand my horizons. I’m also specialized in behavior therapy for humans which could translate to some light pet training if desired. I am looking for some part time dog walking or pet sitting gigs while in between jobs. Whether we are getting our steps in or taking a sniff walk, I’m your girl for the job. I do not currently have any pets mostly due to living in an apartment and not having a yard. I am more than happy to play with your pups at their own home or walk them around their neighborhood.

About: Hello, my future favorite pup(s), I work remotely, which gives me the absolute luxury and joy of being available for your fur baby throughout the day. I share my home with Taylor, my sweet rescue pup who’s been with me since shortly after birth. I’ve devoted myself to giving her the safest, most loving, and consistent home possible — a place where she can truly relax and enjoy her golden years. In my home, Taylor is free to be wherever I am — whether that’s on the couch, in the yard, at the kitchen table, or snuggled in bed. My home is her home, and I aim to extend that same comfort and freedom to your pup. As a single dog mom with no children, I have the time and space to give my full attention to Taylor — and to your dog too. Your pup will be cared for with the same level of love, attentiveness, and respect I give my own. I’m happy to accommodate special needs, specific routines, and can confidently handle medication preparation and administration. I also make it a point to educate myself on any unique health needs or conditions your pet may have, ensuring they receive safe, personalized care. Because I work from home, I can offer regular potty breaks every 2–4 hours, minimizing the risk of accidents and keeping your pup comfortable throughout their stay. Your pet’s well-being will always be my top priority, no exceptions. I look forward to meeting you and your sweet companion! Thank you, Krista B. As the owner of a full-service marketing agency, I have the flexibility to work from home — allowing me to be fully present and spend quality time with your dog throughout the day. Crating is available upon request if arranged prior to booking. In some cases, I may actually recommend bringing your dog’s crate when utilizing my boarding services, as it can provide a familiar and comforting space — especially helpful for pups who experience anxiety or are adjusting to a new environment.

About: Hi everyone! I am an animal lover and would love to help you out by letting your pets out during the day, taking them on walks, or even watching them while you are out of town. I have grown up with both dogs and cats all my life, as of right now though I currently only have a cat but love dogs just as much. I’m extremely patient, understanding, and trustworthy. I’m comfortable with both large and small dogs, and of course puppies! I am flexible with whatever your pet’s needs might be, just let me know and I’m sure we can figure out a way to provide them with the care that they need. I look forward to meeting you all and your pets! I currently work full time during the week but free in the evenings. I am available during the week after 4p and anytime on the weekends. I currently live in an apartment so if pets stayed with me, they would need to be comfortable with cats and quiet due to apt living. I am comfortable coming to your house and looking after dogs or cats.

“Paul is so good with Rousseau! He always takes great care of him and you can tell just how much Rou loves him by his excitement as soon as he sees Paul or even hears his name. As Rou has gotten older Paul has adjusted his time from longer walks to slow down and take more breaks so he can keep up. We appreciate his attention to those important details for our fur baby! It’s so comforting to know he is in good hands!”
