“Jordan did a great job taking care of my dog, Beckett! She sent plenty of pictures and even knitted a little paw for me while I was gone. I also appreciated that she was tidy and bonus ran my dishwasher and stripped the bed for me on her last day. Would absolutely recommend Jordan!”


“Although Jonathan (Jack) has a profile that is new to Rover, he does a FANTASTIC job in caring for animals and has tons of previous experience. Jack watched our 2 dogs in our home while we were away for several days. He was communicative, let us know how the dogs were doing and updated us with photos. We were able to take our vacation with peace of mind that our dogs were being well cared for, and it certainly showed when we returned home to get back into our normal routine. We will certainly rebook with Jack in the future!”


“Anna house sat and pet sat for my 3 cats. She did a great job, and even my very shy cat made more appearances than usual. The house was clean, the cats were happy, and I felt that I had a very responsible person that I could depend on.”


About: Welcome to my profile! I have been caring for + rehabilitating animals into thriving health my entire life. Having grown up with dogs, cats, chickens, and wild animals, I understand that our furry friends are members of the family and need the highest level of care possible. I have experience walking and caring for dogs and cats of any size and age. When on walks or caring for pets, I am committed to giving them my undivided attention (no texting and walking!) and treat them as I would my own. Happy to accommodate for animals with special needs. I live on a large property and am able to provide animals with an abundance of exercise, fresh air, and activity! Thorough walks guaranteed. A tired dog is a happy dog! My love and passion for animals transfers into the high quality care I provide. With my experience in rehabilitating unwell animals, I can provide thorough and holistic care + attention towards every need. My intention is to up level their quality of life with my care! I look forward to giving many belly rubs soon! I am an extremely active person and spend many hours outdoors with community. Due to this, animals thrive with me and our weekly fun activities. I am extremely clean, organized, and can offer extraordinary house-sit care, along with attentive and loving care for your animal + plant friends. I can offer consistent exercise for your animal friends, as well.

“Tyler watched our crew of four in our home where they're all most comfortable. Everyone was in good spirits upon our return and our home was left very tidy. We'll definitely be reaching out for his help again!”

About: I've been caring for animals for over 40 years now, both personally and professionally. My first dog FiFi was there when I was born in 1973. Ever since FiFi I've always had at least one dog through my life. I've had many cats along the way, too. I absolutely adore cats! I lost my last cat two years ago and it still saddens me greatly. He was so affectionate with me even after I had rescued him from mistreatment. He had 6 toes on both front paws! They are called polydactl or Hemingway cats. It looked like he was wearing white mittens! His name was Pyro and I miss him dearly. When I grew a little older, I was able to care for all types of animals such as rabbits, hamsters, mice, ducks, birds and fish. I love them all! I have rescued wild life and nursed them the best I could or took them to a wildlife center for help. I have raised butterflies as well! People have always told me their animals take to me very easily and quickly. I've always shared a special place in my heart for animals and a unique way of connecting with them. I could not get through life without their enjoyment and love! They really are angels with fur and paws. The most wonderful blessings! They bring so much to the table with their enormous love and loyalty. I am available for your pets full time on any given day including holidays, and extended periods of time. My schedule is open twenty four hours 7 days a week. If I'm not with one client, I am available or I can work them in together depending on the situation. I offer overnight house sitting in your home. I have one small 12 year old Toy Fox Terrier (pics of us together here!) I would have to bring with me for any overnight stays because i have no one else to watch her at the time and shes very clingy now that shes older. Shes very sweet and gets along with just about all dogs as long as they arent aggressive. She loves to play or just relax with them! She usually doesnt have an issue with cats. She has had two cats as siblings in her 11 years and that was definitely a learning process, but they did great overall! I also offer drop in and walking visits. I am able to stay for extended periods of time, or shorter stays also. I am very flexible with my time and always available unless I am with another client. I will spend quality time with your pet (no matter the type) doing what they like to do and what fits their needs. We can discuss that further! Have a wonderful day!

About: BOOKING NOW! 🐾 I know your pet is another member of your family & count it an honor to be entrusted with someone so special. I have 3 little blessings (my kids!) who love helping me take care of animals, too. They love to read to them! I’m a stay-at-home homeschooling mom, so our schedule is very flexible! We would love the opportunity to serve your family in any way we can. We have 1.5 acres of yard to run around on + 10 acres of wooded area! If we are caring for your pets in your home, we will carefully follow your instructions for their care. Any requests further than 10 miles from my home will be charged a travel fee of .655 per mile.
