About: I’ve always had pets as a kid, and the same as an adult! It’s a privilege to be able to care for my own “babies” and others ❤️ I have two cats and a dog, so my days are quite pet-oriented. The cats need a little less care than my dog, but they all get loved equally 🥰 I treat my animals extremely well, and other pets I treat like my own! All animals are important to love and care for, big or small 😇
“If you’re looking for a extremely reliable, Dog walker, Julienne is the one! Always arrives on time very trustworthy. I highly recommend her if you need someone to come let your dog out here and there.”

About: I have cared for pets ranging from a sleepy older cat to the more energetic dog. I am able to give medications and/or take your pet to the vet when needed. I love playing with dogs and cats to ensure that they get the socialization they need. I can personalize the care given to your pet, just let me know what you need! I work from home so am available to tend to your pet as often as needed. I am available all day to care for your pet(s). I will arrange my time around your pet's schedule as I only accept one pet (or two/three pets if they are part of the same family) at a time. I live on a large farm and will be able to take your pet for long walks if they are boarding or needing day care. I also have access to a fenced in area of the yard so that your pet can run around safely. I also have a friendly cat that warms up to other cats and dogs after a short getting to know you period.
“Autumn is great, Jace loves when she visits. She works the days she says she can and is very up front and honest! We are glad she will be continuing to care for Jace!!”
About: I've taken care of various animals my whole life. I have watched and help train the pets of friends and family for many years. As a special needs dog mom, I understand the importance of quality care and would provide nothing but the best for your pet! I am a stay at home mom so my availability is fairly flexible for me to have plenty of time to spend with your pet! I don't have a fenced in yard but have a lot of property to walk and explore giving plenty of exercise! I can also travel to your home and spend time with your pet in the comfort of their own home. Walks, play time and cuddles for your pet whenever you need!
“It’s obvious from the minute you communicate with Thalia she loves animals. She even works for a shelter to help animals in need. Thalia was dependable, a great communicator & very conscientious. I was gone both times can’t wait to meet her!”

“Brittany is an excellent dog walker who always shows up on time always provides excellent updates and photos of my dog. I am very happy with her excellent service and would highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve had dogs in my family my entire life. I have experience with dogs from the puppy stage all the way through senior care. I love playtime, going on walks and just lounging. I currently work a remote job that gives me a lot of flexibility with hours and working location. As long as I have a wifi signal I am good to be on the go! I have a fenced yard and super sweet pup. Can also use a crate if needed to provide a relaxing environment for your pup or pups.
“Maddye was absolutely wonderful with my last minute bookings and took such good care of my dog. She was extremely communicative to his needs as a senior and I highly recommend!”


About: Hi! My name is Deja, and I’m someone who has loved and cared for animals my entire life. I grew up with both cats and dogs and currently have experience caring for multiple pets of my own, including 4 cats and 2 dogs. Over the last 1–2 years, I’ve also gained hands-on pet care experience outside of my own home. As a therapist, compassion, patience, and attentiveness are a huge part of who I am, and I bring those same qualities into the care I provide for every pet. What makes me stand out is the level of care, patience, and emotional attentiveness I bring to animals. I genuinely see pets as beings with feelings, emotions, and unique personalities, and I treat them with the same kindness and respect I would give another person. Being a therapist has strengthened my ability to be calm, observant, trustworthy, and responsive to individual needs, which helps pets feel comfortable and secure around me. I don’t just “watch” pets — I build connection, provide comfort, and make sure they feel loved while you’re away. I recently earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and currently work part-time as a therapist while continuing to grow my caseload. Pet sitting is something I genuinely enjoy and intentionally include in my schedule because caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. Since I work part time, I’m able to dedicate focused attention, patience, and quality care to the pets I work with rather than treating it like a rushed side job. When caring for pets in your home, I strive to create a calm, safe, and loving environment where they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and emotional needs, so I approach each animal with compassion, empathy, and attentiveness. Whether your pet needs playtime, comfort, companionship, or gentle patience, I will treat them with the same love and care I would give my own pets.
“Genuinely cannot give anything but the highest recommendations. We needed a dog walker unexpectedly on New Year's Eve, and Lauren not only responded to the booking request quickly, she accepted it even though she's never had us as clients or even met us. Her communication is clear, quick, helpful and even though I was a little scattered during the handoff she handled everything professionally and with flexibility. Seriously couldn't have had a better experience.”

About: Hi there! I would love to have the honor of taking care of your fur babies! I have plenty of experience considering I have 9 dogs of my own... yes 9! Two big dogs and the rest are small to medium sized. So I am basically a dog walker at my own house just without the pay, haha. I am a recent college graduate from ESU with a BA in musical theatre but I would love to in the future become a veterinarian someday. My schedule is open and I also have my own transportation! I would describe myself as very reliable, kind, and caring. I hope you consider me to be your pups dog walker, I can promise you they will be in good hands!(:

About: I’ve been taking care of animals all my life and worked in a doggy day care for over a year. I am educated in general animal anatomy and common conditions given that I was previously enrolled in veterinary courses. I am on track to become a veterinarian so your pet’s wellness is at the top of my priority list!! I’m also extremely comfortable working with all kinds and sizes of animals! I am currently enrolled in a biology program for my pre-vet degree in which I am unavailable Mondays and Wednesdays. I can do day check ins/walks on Tuesdays and Thursday-Sunday at any time. I am also available Thursday-Sunday for pet sitting as well. I will be more than happy to go above and beyond the given instruction as per the client. This includes (if requested) long walks/runs, extra play time, and thorough clean up. I will ensure that the client comes home to a sleepy and happy pet!!
“Melanie has been walking my dogs now for two months. She is awesome with my two dogs. She is extremely responsible and supremely trustworthy. I have the confidence of knowing that she will take care of my home as I would. I trust her enough that she has my house keys and alarm code. She keeps notified about the dogs status as she arrives and leaves. Melanie is a gem.”

“Darlene was fabulous with my 3 dogs. It’s like they have a new best friend. This was my first time using Rover and a pet sitter. She eased my anxiety within the first 5 minutes of meeting her. I would definitely recommend her to care for your fur babies and I will definitely use her again in the future.”

About: Hello!! I am an animal lover looking to help with your boarding and pet care needs. I am patient, dedicated and organized; all traits I have learned through my background as an occupational therapist. I love helping and taking care of people, as well as animals! My dachshund, Daisie, and I love spending time outside, in my spacious 9 acre property. Looking forward to treating your pet with the same love and attention I’d treat my own. My current role in healthcare gives me a lot of flexibility with my time. I am able to accommodate long boardings at my home. I am also able to accommodate additional pet care needs around my schedule. I currently have one dog, Daisie. She is a 2 year old dachshund. I believe all dogs need lots of time, love and attention. I prioritize play time, cuddle time and rest time for all pets.
About: I Grew up around dogs. My aunt is a breeder who raises show dogs. My Husband and I have our own dog, a 4 year old German Shepherd. He is fully trained, cuddly, and well mannered pup. I have often taken care of and watched my neighbor’s dog and have even watched and hosted dogs in my house while their owners were away. I work from home most days. I commute into my office twice a week. I have plenty of time to watch and walk dogs while working from home. On the weekends I like to take them on adventures (hiking, dog parks, runs, and out to dog friendly restaurants, ect.) I have plenty of time to do fun activities with the animals! I have plenty of dog gates in my house so your dog cant get into trouble in unsupervised areas. I have crates if needed and plenty of space in the house to host your dog. Depending on your pups needs we can basically accommodate almost anything.
