“Alisa was absolutely fantastic with my dog, Tsubaki. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and clearly has a natural way with animals. After just one visit, Tsubaki was actually smiling when Alisa arrived for her next walk! I also hired Alisa for overnight sitting, and everything went smoothly. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me real peace of mind. I felt completely confident that Tsubaki was in great hands.”


“Kyle took great care of our pups. Both of our dogs are high energy and he kept them busy while we were away. He is friendly and kept them well fed, and also made sure to dry off the pups before letting them back in as it was rainy while we were gone. There was an accident that had not been addressed, but otherwise all was swell. Thank you for taking good care of our doggos, Kyle!!”


About: Iv been a pet owner of both dogs and cats since I was 9. We also grew up with many exotic animals (lizards, iguanas, sugar gliders and bunnys to name a few). I currently have 2 verry friendly small dogs and 1 cat. I am a stay at home mom. Who homeschools my 9 year old child which help me be verry flexible with my schedule. My kiddo loves to help me with the pets we care for when the owner allows! If you pet is not kid friendly that is okay as I can leave her with childcare during your pets time.(please mention this ahead of time) I enter every care session with tons of love for every pet. Snuggles and playtime are a given when caring for your fur baby! I am happy to awnser any questions you may have about your pets time with me.

About: I’m am retired from the corporate world and looking for something to keep me busy as I love to walk and love dogs. My husband and I have been dog owners for over 40 years, Doberman, cocker spaniels and Shih Tzu. I’m reliable, trustworthy and look forward to meeting and walking your dog I’m retired and looking to keep busy and love being outside walking. I am free most days other than traveling to see my grand baby. I am willing to go to clients homes to let pet out , play with and spend quality time with their dog. Follow instructions that are left for me.

About: Hi, Everyone! My name is Cara. Thank you for visiting my page. My strong admiration for animals has only grown more with the more animals I meet and as a result, it brings me genuine happiness. It is a rewarding experience to be able to take care of any animal that needs it while their owner is away. Since starting Rover in August 21’, I’ve had 10+ repeat clients and have established great friendships with families/people in the community as a result. I have a M-F teaching position 8am-4pm. A half hour lunch long lunch where I can leave to care for your furries in the middle of the day depending on the distance. Dogs will be crated when I’m not home. A little history: I grew up with a miniature schnauzer (Zoie) whom towards the end of her life, needed constant supervision and was administered medicine 3x/ day, grooming/washing daily. I was always there to comfort her until the end of her life and spoiled her beyond belief. Myself and my family provided care to my mini schnauzer for over 12 years. As a child, I never had a dog sitter to send updates, pictures/videos for my sweet Zoie when my family would travel, so I strongly understand the importance of quick and reliable communication/sending updates while you’re away. Experience - administering medicine/injections - cats, big dogs, small dogs, senior animals, special needs pets, pigs, cows, chickens. -exercise/run with your pet -hospice/end of life care (Repositioning every hour, hand feeding, massages, cooking packs, frozen bone broth snacks on warmer days, the list goes on) Pets and animals deserve to be spoiled but most importantly, they deserve to be loved. I have a white fur baby (Minnie). Shes a loyal, sweet and well behaved dog, I’m so lucky and thankful for her every day as she brings me so much happiness. She stays at home with her other best friend, my significant other while I’m away. If you think I’d be a good fit for your fur baby or have any questions or concerns, I’m here to answer them all and hope you will consider me! I work M-F through a nearby school, being able to provide supervision to animals while I am home. Check my calendar for the most up to date availability, please 😌 House sitting: Provide overnight care, 24/7 care, other responsibilities to care for your home while you are away (watering plants, picking up mail, cleaning, etc.) Always love to send picture and video updates 2-3x/a day of your furry one to ensure you are comfortable and know that your animal is well cared for and happy in my care!

I have had and trained many dogs since I was twenty. I care about your dog as much as you. I have two dogs and one of the most important things when I travel is who will take care of my dogs. I want someone who loves them as much as I do and that's what will happen with your dog when it stays with me, lots of love and attention. I feed them on regular schedules and take them for walks on a regular schedule also. I will make sure that they have played, peed, pooped and have plenty of water. I’m available for time to watch dogs. I just moved to the area and I’m working at home and if that changes I’ll let you know but for the most part I can watch dogs 24 seven I don’t have dogs right now, so I do Rover to get my dog to fix.

“Danielle provides a safe loving home for your pet. She takes the time to get to know your animal. Snuggles, playtimes and walks are just a small part of what she can provide. She has watched my dogs on several occasions, I never worry when they are with her.”


Paula H.
“I have known Paula for over 40 years and can confidently say she is incredibly responsible, compassionate, and trustworthy individual—especially when it comes to animals. Over the time I’ve known Paula, I’ve seen firsthand how naturally she connects with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Whether it's walking my own dog or helping care for pets in the neighborhood, Paula approaches every animal with patience, energy, and genuine affection. Dogs respond well to her calm and confident presence, and she always take the time to ensure each walk is safe, enjoyable, and tailored to the needs of the dog.

“Cara is the biggest dog lover on the planet. She got a dog, after years of begging! Her family was nervous but Cara took care of EVERYTHING! She is a dog whisperer! Every dog she comes in contact with is drawn to her! They sit on her lap, respond to commands, they just love her. Even difficult dogs! I would put her in the category of a dog whisperer! Her love for pets is real. Any client wishing to have the right care taker for their animals will find a confident and loyal care taker in Cara!”


Francine G.
“I’ve known Francine for about five years and in all that time I don’t think I’ve ever seen her pass a dog without stopping to say hello to it. She truly seems to enjoy interacting with them. As far as her own pups go, I think they know more tricks than a circus dog. It’s takes patience and love to train a dog as well as hers are. I would never hesitate to leave my little friends with her.”

Tess N.
“I have kept dogs for almost 13 years now and Tess is always my first call if I require a sitter. I have known her most of my life and I trust her completely with my animals. She closely minds how I prefer them to be handled and there is never any doubt they will be safe and happy when I leave them with her. She is not only responsible and knowledgeable but also has an energy dogs seem to enjoy and be drawn to. They even often return to me having learned a fun new trick. I would recommend Tess highly to anyone.”
