About: As a dedicated military professional and future pilot, I bring unmatched discipline, reliability, and focus to dog care. With hands on experience caring for energetic puppies and gentle, patient attention for senior dogs, I make sure every pup young or old is loved, safe, and thriving, just like family. I make pet care a daily priority playing, caring, and keeping their space clean. Whether it’s exercise, medication, or cuddles, I’m fully focused on their health and happiness every day. Whether at my home or yours, I create a safe, loving space tailored to each pet. I follow routines, provide care and playtime, administer medication if needed, and keep everything clean and comfortable.

“Our cat Mac is well cared for whenever Samantha watches him. Samantha is on time, a clear communicator, keeps our home just as we left it. We love getting lots of updates and pictures when we are away. Thanks again!”

“Mckenna did a great job when I needed someone last minute. She updated me on Nala & how she was doing. If the timing needed to be adjusted, she accommodated accordingly. Couldn't recommend Mckenna enough.”


“Mariah was great! Her photo updates always showed that Duffy was having fun, and in good hands. Communication is important when we entrust our fur friends to others, and Mariah was right on top of that. Will definitely book her again when I have opportunity to travel!”


“Lilli is simply the best! She has watched my fur babies a number of times now. I travel a lot for work and sometimes I don’t get a lot of notice. Her flexible schedule makes my stressful trips away as stress free as possible and knowing my boys are in good hands while I am gone is everything!”


“Alice is the absolute best! She has taken care of little dood twice, and has been great and easy to work with both times! So good, she's coming back for a third time! I absolutely recommend her as she is great with my cat, always plays with him and does great visit cards! She leaves a little gift for Zorro that he ways loves! 11/10 would recommend Alice!”

About: I have been surrounded by and caring for animals since I was young. My mom could never turn away a stray or any animal in need, and because of her, a deep love for animals was planted in my own heart. I have years experience socializing and walking dogs within my volunteer work at animal shelters. In addition, I have two years of experience working within veterinary clinics as a veterinary assistant. I grew up with Siberian Huskies, so I am used to and comfortable with high energy and large breeds :) I recently graduated from college, and I am working part-time on the weekends before I apply to veterinary school. Right now, I am available weekdays and weeknights. As my schedule changes, I will update, but I am very flexible :) I am very cautious when it comes to animals and their care. I make sure to intently listen and learn the needs of each animal in order to maintain their routine while also providing enrichment in their environment. I also am a very strong communicator, and will make sure to clearly communicate with owners.


About: I have been involved in several volunteer groups for pets and rescue organizations. I’m sure I could help your peace of mind when you need. I’m currently working for Rover full time. I’m looking to make this a career path and I’m trying to earn more than happiness from Rover. My apartment has a private entrance and I have parks and trails to take them near me that are secure. I have multiple options for boarding.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ranging in size and age! I work in the medical field (3 12 hour shifts) so I have lots of free time to fill with your furry friend! I have 2 dogs of my own, my most recent who was a rescue from our local shelter. I’m very patient, loving, and kind. I’d love to be a calming presence for your dog while you’re away! I have 4 days off each week - I don’t work holidays or weekends at my job, so I’m more than willing to spend that time with your pup! I have a fenced in backyard. I have 2 medium sized dogs who are both very friendly and would love to meet your animals! They are fully vaccinated. I have a large room in my home with plenty of dog beds and a couple crates that has windows and hardwood floors. I have a baby gate up so that my dogs can roam free while I’m at work ◡̈

Your furry friends will receive personalized attention, plenty of playtime, and a safe, comfortable environment when they're with me. I am currently working part-time and have plenty of time for hanging around with pups! I also attend my local community college part-time. I do have a different work schedule each week but I am more than willing to arrange a schedule for your pups needs! Whether I'm looking after your pets in my home or yours, my top priority is creating a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for them. I follow your specific instructions for feeding, exercise, and any medications, ensuring their routine stays consistent. Plenty of playtime, cuddles, and attention are always on the agenda, and I'm quick to adapt to each pet's unique personality and needs, providing personalized care that keeps them happy and secure.

About: Since I was a child I have been around dogs and cats. They are always part of the family not just a pet. All pets will be treated like they are my own and I will give them love and attention.

Taking care of dogs is a daily routine for me. I have 3 dachshund that I split time with my wife taking care of them. We love to take them outside and either play with them or go for walks.
