About: Before I could speak my first standard language, I would speak with animals. This led me to care for neighbors', friends', family's, fosters and stray animals beginning in elementary school. Every shape, size, breed. I find peace & ability to converse with all, threading genuine connection with any and all animals. I currently make my own schedule, and always seek to spend time with a friend or family's animals. A key thing to note is that my fiancé & I share a vehicle, so we are a package deal. She is also an (inactive) Rover provider and can share her info upon request. I am very physically active and enjoy a pup to run / hike with as well. I travel throughout the metro area for business and meetings as well, so I am willing to go anywhere to be a blessing. Transparency and communication is key, always reaching out to the client to ensure I am following proper procedures. I provide the service of package / mail collection, taking the trash out on trash day, pup-poo yard clean up, and as a skilled trade handyman - can provide assistance / service upon discussion. I strive to leave your home as clean or better than when I arrived.

About: I currently have 2 dogs of my own who are very friendly and playful. I can work with high energy or calmer/older dogs always taking the time to get to know them during our visits. I work full time but enjoy staying busy on my days off. Requests can be made for days I work as long as it is far enough out. I am in the process of gating my own front yard. Once completed I will accept daytime sitting at my own home. I am however willing to take your dog to any park you would like and approve of.

I’ve hired Victoria a handful of time over the last couple months for dog walking, and she’s been great! She’s extremely flexible to my changing, military schedule, and always gives Nala extra love. She is very communicative and I look forward to the photos she sends me! Will continue to book with Victoria!

About: Growing up with a dog for 10+ years gave me a lifelong love for caring for them. I’ve also helped watch and walk friends’ dogs and always make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and happy while their owners are away. I’m currently a full-time student, so my schedule can vary during the week, but I’m typically available on weekends and may have some weekday availability depending on the day. I love spending that time caring for pets—whether that’s going for walks, playing, or giving them plenty of companionship! I’ll also have more flexibility and availability during the summer! I live in a pet-friendly apartment and prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment for every dog in my care. There is a walking trail right across the street, which is perfect for regular walks and fresh air. I always keep a close eye on pets and make sure every dog feels comfortable and well cared for!

About: I grew up with a dog, who became my biggest inspiration for working with animals for a living. Currently, I have 3 cats and work as a kennel attendant in my college town. I have worked with many disabled animals, helping them go outside or get comfortable. I have also worked with very young animals who need a little extra patience sometimes. I always pay attention to the animal's individual needs and do my absolute best to accommodate for them. In the past I interned with a groomer who taught me many behavioral signs of dogs and tricks to make them more comfortable if need be. I have also done a lot of research of my own for the behaviors of cats in order to understand my own. I'm currently home for the summer from college and am needing a job that's flexible, but also something that I still love. Since I'm home I will have all the time for all the pets' needs. When I care for an animal I start by giving them lovings, if they are willing to be pet. I will then pick up after them, walk them or scoop their litter, feed them, and of course before I can leave, play with them. Most of all before I do anything else, I double and triple check to see their instructions. Especially if they have any special instructions, I will switch my routine accordingly.

About: My parents have been breeding dogs for years now. As a child of the household, it was my responsibility to feed, walk, and do any other necessary tasks to care for the 15 dogs my parents own when it was my turn to do so. I also had one dog specifically of my own, which I have owned and cared for a total of seven years. I am now living independently, ready to care for others. I currently work Mondays through Fridays from around 8:00am to 5:00pm in Omaha, Nebraska. I am available any other day, and I am flexible. I live in Omaha, NE, but I can drive wherever necessary. I live in Dundee. It's a mostly quiet and green area. I see other owners and their pets quite often here, but it is easy to avoid them while still spending a good amount of time outside if your little one is a bit more on the anti-social side. I am very respectful and watchful of others' pets as well as any under my wing.

About: I have years of experience with animals and taking care of animals. I visited my grandmas farm every summer and took care of all her animals.

My schedule is flexible and I will available weekends.

Rose was available to book last-minute and I’m so happy I did. The night before she was to walk and feed my dogs, she FaceTimed to discuss their needs and get to know the process and their feeding instructions. She cared for my dogs like they were her own and I’m so thankful for that. I’d recommend Rose to anyone I know looking for pet care while out of town!

Breanna proved to be flexible with my instructions and is a genuine pup lover. My dog was super happy upon her arrival and even more happy after they went for a walk! Breanna even refilled the water bowl knowing I wouldn’t be home for a few more hours. Thanks for taking care of the Miabear Breanna!

About: I am an owner of 2 dogs and 3 potbelly pigs. I love playing with them and tending to their needs. I also love my walks with them. My animals make my everyday worth waking up to. I am available anyday any hour any week. Even holidays. Your animals will arrive happy and go home happy. Here at my house there never is a dull moment. Our dogs are 5 mths old to 3 years old. My pigs bella and Wilbur are 4 yrs old and Dewey is 3. They always brighten my days and make my nights better after I tuck them all in their beds with their blankets and pillows. I have love for all animals. There is a photo of me and a small white pup. His name is velcro. I've been puppy sitting and boarding him off an on for over a year. His owners have never complained and they r kept happy. I even take velcro once a year to get groomed and have small outings with me. :) For those of you that have dogs that are skittish around bigger dogs perhaps a meet n greet should happen first or maybe this isnt the right fit or you can trust me with your precious baby. I'm fine with whatever decision the owners make. My Harley can be a bit much which is why I keep him separate from others or he can go down the street to his birth moms too. :) And in case you are wondering what i am doing in my profile photo i am teaching Harley to dance to country music. I recently purchased an acre of land and soon will be buying more. Both in Missouri. If you trust me with your furbabies you wont be disappointed. Thell return to you happy n active. :) ALL MY EARNINGS FROM ROVER WILL GO TOWARDS HELPING ANIMALS IN NEED ALL ACROSS THE U.S. I DONATE TO FUNDRAISERS WHERE I SEE FIT.

About: Our Weimaraner keeps us active with daily hikes and play time in the yard. I am very particular with the care provided to him so I understand the importance of meeting your expectations. My husband and I raised Siberian Huskies for 6 years and couldn’t imagine our home without a canine companion. I am excited to provide others with the care I desire for my own! I am a teacher looking for a flexible schedule to stay busy throughout the summer and breaks. I enjoy staying active and love experiencing breeds of varying sizes, ages, and energy requirements. Our Weimaraner thrives on socializing with other dogs and will keep the play time interesting. We have a large crate available if necessary. Although we do not have a fenced in yard we have a tie out as well as a membership to the nearby dog park. We travel with our dog and will take yours along, too!
