“Sara was awesome! She was able to take our girl last minute so we could go to the corvette museum. She sent lots of pictures and videos while we were away. Our dog loved staying with her. Sara even recommended a great local restaurant for us. We will definitely be rebooking when we are back in the area!”

About: I have taken care of my own pets (cats & dogs) as well as for neighbors, friends, and family most of my life and I will always treat them like my own. My own black lab fur baby is a senior girl. I've had her since she was a pup, so I have experience with all stages of life with dogs. I also have 2 cats and love playtime & snuggling with them (on their own terms of course). I am doing Rover exclusively for the time being, so my schedule is very open 7 days a week. I can do feedings, potty breaks, play time & exercise periodically throughout the day as needed. I have no problem with boarding/overnight stays anytime as well! I am a responsible pet parent, and I will always treat your fur babies like they are my own. I treat them how I would want mine to be treated if I were using these services. I will always follow your directions for feeding, rules, & boundaries. You can trust that your babies will be safe and have a fun time while you are away!

About: I have had dogs my whole life and I have always helped my family take care of them. I am looking forward to talking to you and keeping your fur babies! I also train dogs so if that is something you are interested in you can reach out to me and we can talk prices and set up a consultation!! Like I said I have two dogs so pet care is already part of my daily or weekly routine. I work in healthcare so I have four days off every week and have extra love to give your dogs! I take my dogs out about every 2-3 hours (on a leash). I feed my dogs once a day however I will feed your pets per instruction. I play with my dogs and cuddle with them while watching tv. I love to take my dogs to the dog park and on walks, if you would want your dog to have this experience too then I would be a great dog sitter for you! I will not provide dog food for your dogs. Please prepare your own dog food and instructions to bring with you.

“I needed a few hours to complete shopping. I am visiting from out of town and needed a place to let my big boys play and run! This was fantastic! Super friendly. Responsive. And same day (with only an hour notice) such a life saver!”

“I cannot recommend Graceanne enough! I’m from out of state and needed someone trustworthy to watch my two doodles—and she absolutely went above and beyond. From the moment I dropped them off, I felt completely at ease. Within the first 10 minutes, I could already tell they were in loving, capable hands. She took them to the park so many times, sent tons of adorable pictures, and kept me updated regularly. My fur babies were clearly happy, well cared for, and had the time of their lives! If you’re looking for someone reliable, communicative, and genuinely passionate about dogs, Graceanne is your person. Seriously the best experience I could’ve asked for!”

About: Because I live on a farm I can care for cats, dogs, plus farm animals and more! Love puppies and caring for senior dogs and cats! I’m retired and can work any day of the week and can stay overnight if timing works out. I can also bring my dog or cat for a companion play date! I have dogs and cats that live inside our house and barn cats outside. To stay at my house I would use the stalls in my barn if inside did not work for your pet

About: Caring for & loving animals is a passion of mine! I’ve had animals since I was little- from cats/dogs to goldfish, hamsters & rabbits. I grew up taking my dogs on daily walks, along with my neighbors dogs as well. Now, I care for 2 cats in my home. I work full time during the week but still offer overnight boarding & if possible can work in some evening dog walks/boarding. Available most weekends! :) I have 2 friendly cats at home that enjoy staying inside. I am able to designate them in a secluded area if needed since they have their own cat room. Now, they roam freely around the home & receive scheduled feedings. I have an unfenced yard & can keep your pet on a leash.

“Tova had a wonderful stay with Tavia. This was a last minute booking and she was incredibly accommodating and communicated wonderfully throughout Tova‘s stay with notifications and pictures. Would definitely book with Tavia again!”

About: My life is already so dog friendly because of my senior rescue and occasional foster so I figured why not share the benefits with others. I work from home full time so they do not spend much time alone. One of my dogs was a puppy mill mom for 8.5 years so I have a lot of patience and use positive reinforcement only and I understand the anxiety of dogs in a new place. I give them whatever they need to be happy. I have a park close by that we walk to every day that it is not too hot for them. My home is very clean. I am wide open since I work from home. I'm used to letting pups out frequently since My last three fur babies were senior rescues. I have a fenced in back yard. I don't require them to be in a crate but I can if that's what makes them happy. I live alone with my senior dog so my house is very quiet.

About: I love animal cause I always love them as my own. I would love to go to the dog park or love to go on a long walks with your pup. I can take care of his or her every day need. I will listen to your feeding schedule and your doggy time rule, as I know every family wants their animal to be taken care of a certain way. Also As for cats or other fur babies, I would love to give them all the attention I can for you while you are away at work or vacation. I can send updates every visit along with pictures and or videos. I'm free to answer any questions you may have while visiting as well. Ilook forward to hearing from you. Thank you so much for taking the time to read. My schedule is wide open, I'm available from sun up to sun down . Monday- Friday 6am - 6 pm Saturday and Sunday - I'm available anytime Safety and trust is a must for us dog walkers. I want to make sure you and your fur baby is comfortable with me and I'm comfortable with you and your fur baby

About: With a huge heart for animals, I provide personalized, attentive care for pets of all ages and needs. My focus is on creating a stress-free environment for pets while their owners are away, ensuring they’re safe, comfortable, and loved. What sets me apart is my dedication to understanding each pet’s unique personality and routine, so they feel secure and happy in their own space. You can trust that your furry family members will be in the best hands! I stay home most days, so I have open availability and plenty of time to go above and beyond in helping you with your fur baby needs! I have a fenced yard, friendly dogs and cats to keep your fur baby company, a separate room for your fur baby if they’re not as social, and can accommodate crating your fur baby if needed! I also have no issue with coming to your home to care for your fur baby!

About: I've had experience with a variety of animals from a young age, including dogs and cats. Family and friends have relied on me for their pet needs including walks, training, bathing, etc. I have open availability to fit your schedule. I work part-time within a company that offers me flexible hours. I'm looking to work with animals full-time at this time. I take animal care very seriously and always keep an eye out for animals entrusted into my care. That includes watching them while they enjoy their time outside, and keep harmful items put away in a safe place. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, so feeding, walking, playtime, and providing lots of love and attention are just second nature to me. I structure my days around making sure pets are happy, safe, and well cared for, whether that means early morning walks, midday check-ins, or relaxing evening snuggles. Caring for animals isn’t just a job for me—it’s something I truly enjoy and prioritize every day. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always treat them like part of the family. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment with plenty of room to relax and play. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and any special needs they may have. When I’m in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and strive to keep their pet’s routine consistent to reduce stress. I make sure they have fresh water, meals on time, lots of attention, and regular potty or walk breaks. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or administering medications, I care for every pet like they’re my own.

“She was really cool and flexible to take my babies at the last minute. Will be booking in the future!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was old enough to walk. I’ve always had a pet…dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish. My pets are an important part of my life and family. I’m currently working part time remotely and have plenty of time to take care of your precious fur babies. I am able to walk them often. I live on a farm so dogs would be leashed and walk with my little beagle, Zora. I also have a fenced in deck area where they are able to walk around and do that great smell trip they need. Also, I have dog toys and will play with them often. I do not have a fenced in yard being I live on a farm. I leash my little beagle, Zora, and walk around the farm. I do have a fenced in deck where the pet can go out without a leash (under supervision) and walk & sniff. The pet will be fed as often as required along with authorized treats (including lick pads). My dog has to wear a diaper at night due to her bladder so I am familiar with this if needed. I can also give any necessary medicine.

About: With years of experience, I offer personalized, attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. I build real bonds, prioritize safety, and treat every dog like family. Working from home gives me the flexibility to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or snuggles, your pet is never left alone or waiting for attention. Whether in my home or yours, I provide safe, loving, and personalized care. I follow each pet’s routine closely to ensure comfort, happiness, and peace of mind.

About: Current dog owner looking to care for other small dogs (30 lb Max) at my home. I’ve been a dog owner for the past 6 years now. I have also cared those belonging to family and friends on many occasions. I have a large gated backyard that your dog will enjoy. I spend lots of time outside, so all dogs will get plenty outdoor time I'm available for boarding or babysitting weekdays and most weekends. As long as I know in advance, my schedule is quite flexible. When I am away from home it’s usually for no more than a few hours. More time to spend with your pup! I have a fenced in back yard, and a outdoor cat to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed...
