“Joanna is the best! She stayed with our dog for just under a week in our home and took the best care of her. Our pup has pretty severe separation anxiety and requires medication and Joanna made sure she was comfortable and cared for. Sent lots of pictures and daily updates. When we got home, our house was spotless and just as we left it. We will definitely be using her services again!”
“She was absolutely amazing with our three German shepherds! One of the first times we felt like we never had to worry about anything on a trip! She took care of everything and communicated with us often. We could not have asked for a better person! We will definitely be asking for her help again. Thank you so much!!!”
About: As an avid animal lover, pet care feels less like a job and more of a privilege. I have been dog/house-sitting for 6+ years as well as having worked in a boarding and daycare facility with dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes. I have the opportunity to work remotely from anywhere with a good wifi connection which will allow me to be present throughout the day with your pet(s). My ultimate goal is to help your pet feel as safe with me as they do when you're home. Whether they have a specific routine or a more go-with-the-flow kinda schedule, I'll make sure to follow it to the best of my ability.
“We had a last minute trip scheduled and was in need of assistance with our dog. Robin was very helpful, caring and delight to have helping with our dog. She kept us informed of how he was doing, eating, bathroom and behavior. Helped him out with some tummy troubles. We would definitely use Robin again. This was our first time using Rover. From this experience it won’t be our last. Thanks Robin for taking such good care of our dog”
“Melinda was a life saver and was able to last minute accept taking care of our two dogs and cat when our other sitter had a family emergency to attend to. She asked all the right questions and kept me updated. I highly recommend Melinda as our babies were happy and well taken care of.”
“Owen was fantastic! He communicated well and took such great care of our sweet pup. He also took immaculate care of the house. We already have him booked for another trip. We are grateful to have found him - our pup loves him!”
“Sandra exceeded our expectations by a mile! We have two 6 month old Golden Retriever puppies who are a lot of work and Sandra handled their care with ease! We received morning and evening updates with plenty of pictures to relieve our anxiety from leaving them. One of our puppies needed two daily medications and Sandra was very prompt with their med schedule. She provided daily walks and was always there to let them outside to run around and play and give them plenty of love. When we returned from our trip we had daily notes on what the boys were up to, any new behaviors or just new funny quirks they developed. We also were able to see the spreadsheets she brought verifying the walks and meals they were given. Our house was left very clean and tidy and so were the puppies! It’s not even a question, we will most definitely be using Sandra in the future!!”
“Miranda was great. She was very timely and responsive. This was our first experience with Rover and Miranda and we could tell that our pup felt loved and comforted despite us being gone.”
“She was able to help me out at the last minute with my pit Bull mix Dora when I had to work on the weekend, which was just a bad vacation. She sent me plenty of updates and photos, which was obviously very helpful. Dora was in good hands and she was able to also handle some things I had forgotten to do at home. She’s highly demanded on the app, so I can only hope that she will accept our request for help in the future! Thanks AnaMarie”
“I could not be happier with the care that Carla provided for my pets. She was attentive, responsible and caring while I was away. I highly recommend Carla to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you Carla!”
“It was a pleasure to have Mitzi pet sit at our house. It is obvious that she loves animals and they were very comfortable around her. Mitzi kept us updated with text and pictures all weekend. We would definitely ask her again in the future and trust her with our furry family!”
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for small dogs, I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know their unique personalities and quirks. Each dog is a little bundle of joy, whether they’re a spirited Chihuahua, a playful Pomeranian, or a heart-melting Maltese. Working with small dogs of all temperaments has taught me the importance of patience, empathy, and adaptability in providing the best care possible. For small dog owners, I take pride in not just being a caregiver, but a partner in promoting a healthy, happy life for their furry family members. Every wag of the tail or playful bark serves as a reminder of the bond we cultivate together. Whether it’s through fostering their individual needs or simply providing comforting companionship, I find joy in every moment spent with these delicate little souls. In the world of small dogs, every paw print speaks love, and I’m honored to be a part of their journey. I work part-time with animals, and they are my passion so I make all the time I can for them! I can provide quick bathroom breaks, or long enriching walks. Small dogs often benefit from personalized care. I take pride in being a dedicated walker or sitter that can cater to their specific needs and preferences during each visit. I have experience with senior dogs, feeding schedules, and basic enrichment needs as well.
About: Hello! I am a positive-reinforcement based dog trainer and lover who has experience with a plethora of dog breeds, ages, temperaments, and medical issues. I have an extensive history with caring for and training dogs, with a specialization in the training of fearful or reactive dogs. I believe that the responsibility of caring for another’s pet goes beyond the necessities: it is ensuring that the dog is comforted during an often difficult time, and the owner is reassured that their pet is in the best hands. Further, it is necessary to be sure that the animals physical, emotional, and needs are fully met. I hope to establish a relationship with the pet(s) and their owners. I genuinely care about the wellbeing of animals and make a great effort to ensure that the pet is comfortable and well taken care of. I am currently working in other animal care positions and am able to adjust my schedule to your pet’s care needs. My schedule is relatively flexible, and can be adjusted. I have a sweet Shetland Sheepdog who lives with me, as well as cats. I am very cautious about keeping doors (and inside gates) firmly closed to ensure safety,
