“Amy really came into clutch. A 5 week old puppy came into my life unexpectedly. No doggy daycare would accept him so young. So when I was working, Amy came over to care for him. It was really reassuring knowing he was in good hands when I was away. She fed him, cleaned up after him, took him out to potty, and played with him. She was wonderful!”


“This is the 1st time I utilized this service and I am Very happy. After numerous years of uncertainty with tending to 4-legged loved ones, I feel pleased with Rover.com and will gladly be a return customer. A special thanks to Theresa for seeing my pets while I was gone. Theresa has been great & I'd love to request her again in the future if possible. Thank you, Don Harris”


About: I had a senior chihuahua of my own and have helped care for a variety of small to medium dogs for friends and family. I’m familiar with the unique needs of senior pets and have experience handling reactive behavior—especially on walks. My own dog had reactive tendencies, so I’ve learned how to manage challenging situations calmly and with care. I always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m currently working full-time, but I usually have free time in the afternoons or evenings to care for our furry friends and help out as needed. I am flexible and willing to work with different hours. I always prioritize safety and respect in every environment, whether I’m in your home or out on a walk. I follow all special instructions and rules you have for your pets to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Building trust—with both pets and their owners—is always my top priority.

About: Some see them as animals, I see them as little people... whom deserves to be loved and cared for properly. I am dedicated and trust worthy. SAFETY is my number one priority when it comes to your pet. I am a Welder by trade and its currently too hot outside for my career, so I'll have lots of time for your pet till the fall when it cools down. I have two very friendly children in my home, ages 17 and 7. We have lots of room in our home and a big back yard which includes chickens. The chickens stay inside their chicken run, they don't like dogs or cats anyway. My schedule is pretty open right now, so just let me know when you would like services, and I'll let you know if I'm available. We currently have chickens and one mixed breed dog named "Charlie" who loves all dogs, cats and even the chickens. Your pet would have our undivided attention! We absolutely love dogs and cats.

“Maddison did amazing with our doggies. The dogs were afraid at first, but she was able to earn the trust of our doggies by the end of the first visit. Our dogs opened up to her on her next visits. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing that Maddison was taking good care of our dogs. We are definitely booking her again on our next trip.”


About: Please use my promo code… https://www.rover.com/sit/rosal48641 I have a Great Pyrenees and am used to large dogs and no issue handling smaller pets as well. I periodically watch pets for friends and family. Distance and time are very flexible most days. Let me know if you need assistance and I can find a way to make it work. Periodic walks are necessary for pets of all sizes and for humans as well. :) Favorite part of my day with my Pyrenees is long walks and sunshine.

“Rachel was a dream/lifesaver!!! Not only did she have an instant rapport with my anxious-about-new-people puppy, but she responded immediately to my sudden and very last-minute need for help when our usual pet sitter had a conflict about an hour before I had to leave town for the weekend! I was afraid I’d have to cancel everything but in a matter of about an hour Rachel came to meet me and our two dogs, get instructions and a house key, and that was that. I liked her immediately — she clearly has dog-whispering skills! — and I had NO qualms about leaving town with them in her care. I cannot thank or praise her enough — did I mention that she even noticed a scheduling error I’d made in my rush to get the paperwork done? She handled everything with ease and generosity. And the photos she sent each day of the dogs made it very clear that they were in very good hands, so we were all very thankful for Rachel! We will definitely call her again. RW”


About: The house I grew up in was always filled with a variety of down on their luck creatures being nursed back to health under my mother's watchful eye. That love of all things great and small carried on through high school, where I volunteered at my local Humane Society on evenings and weekends, to adulthood. I now combine my profession as an RN with my passion for animals by fostering medical complex/seriously injured cats for a local rescue. I am comfortable with other species and with giving any medications. Caring for animals is my passion and hobby. I love meeting new animal friends! I work a weekend option schedule making me free for visits throughout the week, Monday through Friday! I am incredibly flexible to meet you and your pets needs. I will carefully follow any instructions left by you! Even the ones that make you feel a little silly asking, lol! My cat only eats if I place her on the second level of the cat tree and stare at her until she is done. I understand and I'm prepared to do whatever you need! I believe in gentle and kind reinforcement/redirection. I would never raise my voice or hand to yours or any pet. I will treat your pets as if they are my own and I treat my own as children!

“Philip was great! Very easy to communicate and schedule his drop-ins, even short notice, and he was willing to stop by to meet the dogs early in the morning before we left. He sent us pictures and notes on his visit and kept us up-to-date on our dogs while we were away. We would definitely book him again if we weren't moving!”
