About: I’ve taken care of mine and other people’s pets for over 20 years and have loved every opportunity that comes my way! I have experience with dogs, cats, farm animals and reptiles and am very comfortable with all creatures big and small. I am experienced and am confident in meeting any specific needs for your fur baby. That includes puppies in training to senior dogs in need of medication in whatever form it needs to be given. If I seem like a fit I would love the opportunity to take care of your four legged baby! I currently stay at home and work on my little corner of what I call paradise. I live on a 10 acre farm with lots of room for play time and exercise. I do have a fenced in piece of land or I can walk your pup on a leash. I also have two very friendly dogs of my own that would love a friend! We have lots of land and room to fit your fur babies needs. I have a very open schedule and would love to fill it with spending time with your animals!

“Jarrett has watched our dog Scout many times and Scout is always happy and well cared for while we're gone. He gets many walks and trips to the dog park to keep him happy. Jarrett's dog Pepper is also very friendly and gets along very well with Scout and new dog friends. We highly recommend Jarrett and family as Rover dog sitters.”

13. Hallie B.
“Hallie was an excellent sitter for my two kitties. She cared for them during my week of vacation. She stopped by twice a day to feed and pet/play with them. She was always on time, sent me pictures and a short message with each visit. Hallie truly cares for your pets and takes pride in her work. She communicated with me promptly with any questions or concerns which was comforting for me. I would highly recommend her to my friends and family.”
14. Dominique H.
“I cannot express enough positive comments about Dominique and his care for my two pups. His calm and kind disposition eases their anxiety (and mine) anytime that we are away. He is great at redirection and positive reinforcement. He is responsible, punctual, and dependable. He makes himself available even with short notice and emergencies arise. Dominique has been an integral part of our family when it come to our pups and he plays a key role. Any family would be fortunate to have him in their pet care team!”
15. Kelsi T.
“Kelsi was amazing and she gave me constant update with photos of all my pets. I can not tell you how wonderful she is.

We already have plans to travel again and will only ever use Kelsi as our pet sitter in the future.”

19. Lesley C.
“I have known Lesley for 18 years. In that time I have owned 12 of her dogs that she bred, all healthy and happy. I trust her and value her opinion on all things dogs! I was once asked why I only had dogs from her pedigree line. ...it's simple, she treats them well, provides for them well and they are healthy and well adjusted. I never worried when they were in her care when I went out of town, I knew they would be in the same or better condition when I came back! Kimberly W.”
20. Melissa D.
About: I have been blessed to grow up with a variety of animals in and around my home. I’ve had a variety of dogs that have ranged from 12lbs to 200lbs. I’ve also had cats in the home, as well. I have taken care of the basics of feeding them, giving clean water (daily), maintaining the litter box (as needed) and even giving insulin injections (to both felines and dogs). I’ve trained many of my larger breed dogs and my service dog. Bathing, feeding, walking and not just for my pets, but also friends & family. I’m very flexible in my schedule and if I was needed to stay for extended periods of time, my animals would be taken care of. I’ve been on medical disability for 4 1/2yrs now. Other than my appointments I have throughout the week, my only other commitment is the upkeep of my home and taking care of my animals. I would not be bringing clients pets to my home, as it’s a spacious and fenced in yard; however, we have one dog who doesn’t play well with others. In a client’s home, unless asked by the owner, the only thing I would remove from the home (temporarily), would be the pet. I’m very cautious with another’s fur baby; so, I would treat it as my own with love, snuggles and a gentle touch. I’m always aware of my surroundings, especially with something so precious, to another. I’ve always been described as very trustworthy and compassionate, with people, as well as, with their animals. Pampering and maintaining a secure environment for your animal(s), no matter the type or the amount you may have. This way, you know that one of your family members is in the best hands possible while you take a vacation for your own self-care.
