About: I have experience with elderly pets as well as babies. I am proficient in medication administration including insulin injections, as I have my own diabetic cat. I am also able to give oral medications. I am available day and night and I am also available for overnight stays. I will be happy to snuggle your babies as much as you need. I have two dogs that are kept on a regular feeding schedule they are house broken and know when it's time to go outside. I have one cat that grazes on food throughout the day and a second cat who is on a feeding schedule due to diabetes. Both of my cats are indoor cats, and their litterboxes are cleaned daily. After that, it's all snuggles

Whether it's a puppy who needs structure and training or an older dog who needs gentle care, I adapt my approach to meet each pet’s unique needs. You can count on me to provide consistent, loving, and dependable care every time. I’m currently doing pet care full time, which means I have a very flexible schedule and can be available whenever you and your pets need me—whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. Since this is my main focus, I can give your pets my full attention and provide consistent, reliable care throughout the week. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets—whether in my home or yours.

About: With over 12 years of petcare experience and multiple indoor pets myself, I think it's safe to say that I love animals! Situated on a 1 acre property, with a fenced front yard, this could be your pets getaway while you get away! Because I have grooming and training experience, I could be your one stop drop! I am a freelance pet artist, therefore I have plenty of time to have fun and interact with my animals! We enjoy walking in the lovely Baldwin bike trial and playing in the yard! I'm practically available all day any day! I have a fenced front yard and 4 lovely rough coated collies! My dogs are very social and love to play! Fun in the sun during the day and crated at night! For pick ups I currently have a Ruffland intermediate kennel for car rides to keep your dog as safe as possible!
About: I’ve had all kinds of pets since I was a child. Currently I have 3 cats, 1 dog and an axolotl. Caring for and loving on pets is a passion. My friends and family all call on me to pet sit for them while they are away. I work part time from 5am-10am and have flexible availability each day to look in on and spend time with pets. My schedule is consistent each week. I follow the instructions left by the owner to individually care for each pet. Every pet has individual needs and caring for those needs are important to me.
About: I love doggies! I always have and always will. I work near my house, so I get to visit home in the afternoons. I walk my fur-baby in the mornings, afternoons and at night. I communicate with clients throughout the day when pets are in my care. I can text photos of your fur-baby during the day to let you know that they just finished a walk. All in all, just know that your fur-baby will be in great hands and will receive great love and attention. I do ask for drop off time 6am to 7am on weekdays, weekends are flexible. I get lunch breaks about 2pm to 3pm. Monday through Friday I'm home by 7pm. Mostly, all my weekends are open. I have a fenced in yard, plenty of outdoor space in my small neighborhood. One 5lb shitzu who is very vocal and playful. Zora is sweet and shy; sometimes nervous in the first hour or so but once she is comfortable she is very loving. I have an empty spare room for privacy if needed for your fur-baby.

Chimney Lakes pet parents share their Rover experiences
She stayed at our house for 1 night watching our two dogs. She's attentive, communicative, and very proactive. At first, I was worried about how our new dog, who's only been with us for a month, would react, but Sidnee seemed to know how to handle him so that he wouldn't get the anxiety that my new dog usually exhibits when we're not with him. She sent us a photo where he looked very calm and asleep. She took great care of them and left the house in place.
It was a pleasure to meet Stephanie and have her stay in our home with our PJ and Henry. The dogs obviously had a great time and were a little spoiled with adventures. She sent updates and pictures daily and even pampered them with baths and brushing. Everything in our house was also well cared for. Highly recommend!!
Katlyn was great with our furbabies! Our puppy pitbull is still very skidish around new people and she was very patient with her and she warmed up to her very quickly! We got regular pics and check-ins and the house was just as we left it when we came home! We’ll definitely be hiring her again and we 100% recommend her for your furbabies 😊
Kirstin, our pets love when you stay with them! They are well taken care of, loved on, & safe! Our minds are relieved when we travel as you are very trustworthy, professional, & great at keeping to their routines. Thank you for being such a great person! We will definitely be booking you again!
Karly was terrific. Merle, our miniature cockapoo pup, absolutely loves her! She spent a lot of time with him, playing, walking, running and snuggling and sent us pictures or videos of him everyday. When we returned, the bedding was washed and on the bed and everything was spotless. We've already booked her again and would happily recommend her to others!
