“Today was my first time using rover. Violet was my first walker. She showed up on time and respected our home. She was patient getting to know my dog and showed him kindness. I appreciate her taking care of my doggie while i was at work. Will def do it again.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life. Growing my family always had at least one dog, all varying in size and breed! I have a strong love for animals especially doggies. I am currently in working part time so my schedule is very flexible. I am easy to reach and quick to respond to anything you may need. I live in a quiet safe neighborhood, which is great for dog walking. I live a very active lifestyle so I love to go on long walks with dogs.
About: I have been saving neighborhood cats and pet sitting pups since I was a child. I will always give your pet extra TLC — I’m a pet owner myself and know what it feels like to have your furry friend in someone else’s care. You can expect texts with updates and pictures, so you can have proof and peace of mind that your pet is safe and sound. My availability varies because of my full time day job, but I am flexible, and typically free on the weekends! I can also arrange longer check ups (30 min+) or walks if need be — I love the outdoors and being active! I’m also a huge cat lover, so feel free to reach out for cat sitting as well.
About: You and your pet will both feel like they’re on vacation as they have all of the comforts of home while you relax when you’re away. I have cared for dogs from the early stages of puppyhood and potty training through their later years where they just need a little extra help and lots of extra love. No matter their age, size or breed, I’m here to love your pet almost as much as you do 😉 In addition to a loving environment, I have most pet equipment including play pens, ramps, toys and treats so that your pet can have everything it needs for a comfortable stay. I also carry private insurance coverage so your pet can have the protection it deserves. I have coverage for boarders as well as for walks/drop ins. A copy of my policy can be provided upon request. ** DISCOUNTED RATES FOR DOGS WHO CAN STAY WITH DOGS FROM OTHER FAMILIES. OPENINGS IN JUNE FOR DOG FRIENDLY DOGS ONLY ** My husband and I grew up with dogs and have loved and cared for many over the years including our first doggy child, Molly. She has since crossed the rainbow bridge and although we’re not quite ready yet for a new dog, we’re happy to share our built up puppy love to provide a safe and loving environment while you’re away. At our home, all dogs become part of our family and I will reinforce any behaviors you maintain in your own home. But if your pet is used to couch cuddles they’ll get the same thing here! They’ll have all of the love and comforts of home that cannot be matched by any traditional boarding place, while receiving personal attention as they’re in space where they’ll be the only dog. It’s a change for your dog to go from one home to a new one. However, I find that having a home with no personal pets and either none, or a very limited amount other boarders if your pet enjoys company, helps to ease the transition and get them acclimated quickly. After several years of boarding dogs while I worked from home, I have been able to leave my corporate job and now I get to care for pups full time. When I have a booking, I limit the time I spend outside of my home. Puppies will never be left home alone. Seniors can also be booked for constant care if needed for their health and safety. When the weather is nice, the family and I try to be out as much as possible and will always bring your dog along for the fun! I enjoy getting out for walks several times a day to stretch out my legs after extensive periods behind a desk. If your dog is up for it, then I’m happy to get to bring them on my walks! Even the best boarding facility cannot replicate the safety, cleanliness and care that can be provided in an animal loving home where there will always be a human around day and night to care for your dog and take action immediately should the need arise. My radius for drop ins and walks is set so that all clients are less than 15 minutes from my house. This way, should you be delayed in any way, or notice something while you’re gone, I’m nearby and can easily continue my visits until you return home.
About: For the last 30 years I have been trusted by loved ones and strangers alike to care for their dogs. Starting with my neighbors dogs when I was a teenager, feeding and walking them before and after school, and later my own dogs, having had pets for the past 20+ years, I always strive to make dogs the happiest and healthiest they can be. Providing both pet and owners piece of mind since 1979. I own my own business and make my schedule weekly, I am very flexible with hours and can make myself available with a two hour notice. Within your own home I can care for the dogs as if you never left, making them feel secure and loved at home and giving you piece of mind. I can be on call with pictures and updates on the dogs while I am with them. I also have my own fenced in yard at my own home and one dog that loves other dogs very much. I live on a small cul de sac with minimal to no traffic on my street and the surrounding neighborhoods.
“Dillan was prompt, had some great advice for a new pup owner and was great with my Cooper. Cooper warmed right up to him. I’ve already scheduled Cooper’s next walks with Dillan. I am very happy with Dillan’s services.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was 16. Friends, neighbors, and family have always trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love on their pets like they’re my own. Whether it’s playful puppies, energetic adults, or gentle seniors, I’m patient, attentive, and truly enjoy keeping pets happy and safe. I’d love to give your furry friend the same care and affection! I run my own social media marketing agency from home, so your pups will never be left alone for long stretches. I’m around throughout the day to give them playtime, potty breaks, and all the love they need. I’m available for boarding everyday but Tuesday’s and walks or drop-ins on weekdays after 2pm. I have a secure fenced yard and one friendly puppy who love making new pals and is crate trained. Your fur baby will get plenty of exercise, safe outdoor time, and supervised play. I can also crate them if needed. I treat every pet like my own, keeping them happy, comfy, and safe.
About: Hi, my name is Vanessa and I have several years of experience working and volunteering with both dogs and cats. I come from a long line of dog lovers so I understand the need to find the perfect fit for both you and your dog. So if you would like someone who is caring, energetic, trustworthy and kind; I am your person. My experience includes two years of working at a dog boarding facility, a year of volunteering at a rescue cat shelter with Last Hope and eight years of personal experience. My responsibilities at the dog boarding facility and rescue shelter included walking, feeding, playing, administering medication, communicating with owners, and processing perspective owners. I have references available upon request. I look forward to meeting you and your dog.
About: I’ve had a special love for animals that started at a young age. For years, friends and family have trusted me to feed, walk, and care for their pets while giving them plenty of love and attention. I currently have four dogs and a parrot, and I’m very comfortable caring for pets of different personalities and needs. I also previously worked at an emergency veterinary hospital as a receptionist, where I learned a lot about pet health, behavior, and the importance of following care instructions closely. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs, and I always treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life. I care for my own dogs every day, so feeding, walks, playtime, and routines are second nature to me. I plan my schedule to allow time for drop-in visits and make sure each pet gets my full attention during our time together. I’m reliable, organized, and flexible, and I treat every visit as a priority, not something rushed or squeezed in. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and carefully follow all instructions provided. I make sure pets stay on their usual routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any medication schedules. I give them plenty of attention and affection to help them feel comfortable while their owner is away. I also keep the home tidy and provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind.
“Erin did an excellent job caring for Jeter and Cece while we were away! She provided thorough summaries and provided photos for peace of mind. Looking forward to having her again.”

About: I have been very passionate about animals and the environment since I was 3 years old! I grew up around so many animals and it encouraged me to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. At a very young age I was introduced the opportunity to petsit for dogs and cats/kittens in my family. Later around 8 years ago I was able to start working in a more professional manner and cared for not only cats, kittens, and dogs but birds, different reptiles, and some aquatic pets! All these experiences are amazing and they just motivate my love and passion for animals. I have worked with pets of all ages as well as many with special diets and medications. Aside from my experience, I am a very energetic person! I love to go on hikes, runs, bikes, you name it! You can rest assured that your fur babies will get all the love, care, and enjoyment with me! I am an undergraduate student and I am currently a vet technician/assistant practicing with a couple clinica , which allows me plenty of time to care for your lovely fur babies! My availability is very flexible right now. I do have a large fenced yard! I have 1 energetic doggie named Milo and 2 cats named Blue and Maya Papaya. Milo does have social anxiety, so I will keep separate in order for both parties to feel comfortable. And for my cats they are very soft, kind, and friendly with everyone including dogs. You can rest assured that your baby is in great hands, as my top priority is their trust, comfort, and health!
About: I am a fourth year veterinary science student hoping to go to veterinary school! I have experience in all ages of pets and am confident in pet care! I am currently taking classes at SUNY Delhi. I love meeting new pets and all of their different personalities. I am able to visit or walk pets before or after my classes. I treat each pet as if it were my own and treat them with as much love and care as I can. I understand the trust you put into this app and want to make the experience as comfortable for not only the pet but the owner as well!
“Karishma was absolutely amazing. She went above and beyond for caring for my fur baby! She sent me multiple pictures and always checked in on how he was during her visit! I would highly recommend Karishma and will definitely be using her again.”
