About: Hi there! I’m Cindy. I have raised dogs my whole life. In every size from Chihuahuas to Great Danes. I now have hands on experience with my daughter’s cat. I am recently retired. I was a nanny for 17. Most of those families had dogs or cats that I also cared for. I am comfortable with caring for small and larger or young and elderly pets. *Want to receive $20 off your first booking with me? Use this code. https://www.rover.com/sit/cindyd96152 Hi! I’m Cindy.

About: I have taken care of neighbors dogs, our friends dogs, and our own dogs for as long as i can remember. I love animals. I grew up having all different animals in the house, so I have much experience with them, and would love to take care of other local fur friends. I currently work from home, so I’m super flexible! I am available any day of the week for drop ins, and walks. Whichever you prefer! I care for fur friends in others homes by always keeping their animals safe, fed, and loved as if their owner was there with them.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, and two years ago I worked with a dog-sitting company—a truly rewarding experience. I love being surrounded by these four-legged friends, and I have a natural ability to communicate with them. I am currently off for the summer, but starting in September, I will be mostly available after 4:00 p.m. on weekdays and throughout the weekends. In my home, I focus on creating a safe, fun, and structured environment for every pet. We’ve recently added a secure fence to our extra-large backyard so visiting pups now have a spacious, supervised play area to run, explore, and burn off energy. In addition, I make sure dogs stay active and engaged with daily walks around the neighborhood, tailored to their age and energy level. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s routine as closely as possible—feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and walks—so they feel comfortable and cared for in their familiar space. My goal is always to provide consistency, safety, and lots of loving attention, whether I’m hosting your pet or caring for them in your home.

About: I provide more than just pet care—I focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I have hands-on experience with both energetic puppies who need extra playtime and training, as well as senior pets who benefit from gentle handling, medication management, and a slower pace. I pay close attention to detail, communicate frequently with pet parents, and treat every dog as if they were my own. I work full time, but I work from home. I am available on most days and can be there for lunch routines. I am available during my lunch breaks for dog walks. I have one mini bernedoodle, who is the most friendly dog in the world. I can take care of dogs in my house, and am available for walks on my lunch.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child. Lots of experience in caring for dog and dog walking. I also have experience in caring for a pet after surgery and administering medication. I understand how important it is for your dog to be comfortable while you are away from home. I work full-time, but I work from home two days a week. Those days I would be available for dog walking or checking in on your pet. Could do in-home sitting, preferably on weekends, but should be able to fit weekdays schedule also. I would be caring for your pet in your home. This would make them the most comfortable being in their own house. I will try to stick to the same routines that the owner does.

Finnian was available last min and responded super quickly which is always great in a pinch but not expected. He was open to all my directions for my new puppy and comfortable dropping in without meeting her and not knowing what to expect. Took adorable pics and sent great notes! I do the job full time and so far I’m happy I found him :)

Michael has been absolutely wonderful with our doggo! He has such a care and attention to her needs, and even helped out when she got into trouble and got into our pantry lol. We have a reactive dog, and he's been great with taking her for walks and managing her energy and needs safely. We can tell that she is very comfortable with him, and would recommend Micheal to anyone with a furry friend! :)

Bethany is a really wonderful sitter, and person! She has been so easy to communicate with, reliable, accommodating and caring. Our dog has been anxious in his new home and very sick lately, but he felt super comfortable with her. Her boyfriend Jason who also is on Rover joined her for this visit, and the both of them bonded so well with our dog. We are so excited to work with them moving forward!

About: Hi! I’m Katalina, a reliable and experienced dog sitter with hands-on experience caring for dogs both on and off Rover. I also have a Labrador Retriever of my own, so I understand the daily care, energy, and attention dogs need. I’ve worked with puppies, seniors, and dogs with special needs, and I’m comfortable adapting to different routines and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every dog like my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup! Currently, I work a full-time job at a school Ideally, on the weekdays I would be available after 4:30 pm when I get home. Willing to work on weekends as well. I have major holidays and breaks off ! Currently live in an apartment complex. Apartment complex is nice though and has a fenced in dog park that's fairly sized and my lab would be an exceptional friend ! If that's not of interest to you, I would love to take care of the pet in the comfort of your home, which I have done before. I would make sure that your pet/pets are safe and in good hands I always send messages and updates to ensure you feel at ease.

About: With over six years of hands-on pet care experience, I’ve worked for three pet sitting companies, the MCSPCA, and at the same kennel twice. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and countless other animals—big and small—with love, patience, and reliability. Growing up surrounded by animals shaped my deep passion for their well-being, and I’m committed to treating every pet like family. 💞🐾 Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine, as I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule. That means I have plenty of time and energy to dedicate to your pet. I'm available for dog walking and drop-in visits during the week and weekends, and I’m happy to help with holiday or last-minute bookings. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely love, so this never feels like “work” to me—it’s something I look forward to every day!! :) I grew up with dogs and have been surrounded by animals for most of my life, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. While I don’t offer in-home boarding, I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. I always follow instructions carefully, prioritize safety, and strive to make every visit calm, fun, and stress-free. Whether it’s a big, energetic pup or a shy senior cat, I have experience with pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities ♥︎

About: I have over two years of professional experience working with dogs and have been a dog owner for more than 15 years. I believe in allowing dogs to approach at their own pace and building trust through patience and understanding. I have experience caring for puppies as well as dogs with behavioral challenges. I’m a college student with flexible availability. The only times I’m unavailable are Tuesdays before 1 PM and Thursdays. I live at home, so overnights at my home aren’t an option, but I’m happy to stay overnight at your home if needed. I am capable of handling multi-dog families. Due to my background, I'm used to seeing sibling sets of 2-3, despite never personally owning more than 2 dogs at 1 time

Jenniffer was absolutely wonderful! She kept in constant communication, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog, Gracie, in her care, and it was such a relief knowing my baby was safe, happy, and well taken care of during my vacation. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
