I'm a detail-oriented and dedicated caregiver looking to provide your furry companions with quality care.

Weekdays (8:00 AM – 4:00 PM): Available for 30-minute drop-ins and walks (potty breaks & feeding). Evenings (After 4:00 PM): Open for 30-minute or full 60-minute walks and visits. Weekends: Fully open and flexible for both 30-minute and 60-minute bookings. Communication and safety are my top priorities. Before any walk or drop-in, I verify all care instructions and routines so nothing is missed. Out on trails and sidewalks, I maintain complete situational awareness to avoid unexpected encounters with other pets or wildlife. I treat your home with respect, keeping the environment clean and always double-checking that the house is locked up before leaving. Most importantly, I always respect your pets' boundaries, reading their body language and entering their space on their terms.

About: Raised my 4yo doodle from 8 weeks. Both my husband and I are WFH. As a routine we walk our dog 5 times a day. We are patient, calm and reliable and cherish dogs as they are part of the family. I always communicate well via text and photos to give you a peach of mind while away from home. Both my husband and I are 24 hours working from home. Flexible schedule to accommodate yours. Can walk your doggy as often as needed and play with them anytime. Safety is our priority. We have a safe area for dogs to hang out and pay great attention to the dogs as we are WFH. Dogs will stay with my wonderful, friendly Momo who is a calm and gentle doodle. He is a neutered male with boarding experience before. Backyard is gated at all time so no risk for loss. I only allow one dog boarding at once so your dog will get all the attention it deserves.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs, my entire life, and caring for animals has always been a big part of who I am. I’ve also had the opportunity to work at an Animal Rescue Hospital, where I gained hands-on experience, caring for animals with different personalities, needs, and levels of comfort. I understand that leaving your pets with someone else can be stressful, so my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away I’m patient, attentive, and generally enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means playing, going for walks, giving extra cuddles, or simply keeping them company. I treat every pet as an individual and care for them the way I would want someone to care for my own. You can feel confident, knowing your pets are in caring, responsible hands while you’re away. pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work Monday through Friday, but I work at an apartment community, which gives me flexibility to take breaks and easily walk home for a quick potty breaks, walks, and check-in during the day. I’m also available 24/7 on weekends, so I have plenty of time to give pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. I understand that every pet has their own routine and needs, and I’m happy to work with your pet schedule to help them feel comfortable, happy, and will care for while you’re away. I am happy to care for pets in my home or in your home, depending on what works best for the pet and your family. When caring for a pet in your home, I’d like to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible, including the regular feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. Communication is also important to me, so I am happy to provide regular updates and photos so that you have peace of mind knowing your pet is doing well.

“Darcy was one of the best sitters we’ve ever had! She followed all of our instructions and was very communicative. We have a shy kitty and reactive dog, yet she made sure to meet each of their individual needs. Darcy went above and beyond for our babies and we can’t thank her enough. We will definitely be booking again!”

About: I have always loved animals and have many years of personal experience caring for pets. I had my own dog for 14 years, so I understand how important patience, reliability, and attention to detail are. I also have experience with cats and different pet personalities and routines. During visits, I will carefully follow your instructions, provide food and fresh water, playtime or short walks, and send photo updates. I do not offer boarding in my home, but I am happy to care for pets in their own home with patience, care, and respect. I currently have a flexible schedule and can often help with drop-in visits, feeding, fresh water, short walks, and basic pet care during the day. I am especially available for planned visits and can usually adjust my schedule with some notice. I enjoy spending time with animals and would be happy to help pet owners who need reliable care while they are at work, traveling, or busy during the day. I always want pets and their owners to feel safe and comfortable. I carefully follow your instructions for feeding, fresh water, walks, medication if needed, and any special rules. I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine, so I take my time and try to make each visit calm and stress-free. Before I leave, I make sure your pet is safe, everything is taken care of, and doors are locked. I am happy to send photo updates so you know your pet is doing well. I do not offer boarding in my home, but I am happy to care for pets in their own familiar environment.

About: As the proud owner of a 4-year-old Belgian Malinois, I’ve developed a deep love and understanding of animal care. He’s my first dog, but my passion for watching over and nurturing animals has been lifelong. I believe exercise is key to a happy, healthy pet. I regularly take my dog on long walks and would ensure the same for your furry friend. Whether it’s playing, petting, or just spending quality time, I genuinely enjoy creating moments that bring joy to animals. Cleanliness and grooming are also priorities for me. I love brushing my dog and ensuring his coat stays healthy while keeping our home fur-free. You can trust that your pet’s hygiene will always be well cared for in my hands. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities, and I would treat them as if they were my own. I have a Belgian Malinois which is one of the most active and energetic dog breads. I care for him daily from multiple walks, to feeding, brushing, and playing with him. I prioritize his well-being all while working a full time job. I work from 7 to 5 so we are up and at it by 4 AM. Then I come home to take care of my Maui. For clients, my availability will be from Monday to Sunday. I do not work from home but I work very close to my office so I could drop by in the afternoon to take your fur baby out to pee and stretch. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine while respecting your home. Here’s how I approach pet care: 1. Follow Your Instructions I adhere to the feeding schedules, dietary requirements, exercise routines, and any specific instructions you provide. Maintaining consistency is key to keeping pets comfortable and stress-free. 2. Keep Their Routine Pets thrive on routine, so I ensure walks, playtime, and naps happen as expected. I also take the time to engage with them in ways they enjoy, such as games or cuddling. 3. Maintain Hygiene I clean up after the pet, ensuring their spaces (e.g., feeding area, litter box, bedding) are always neat. If they need grooming, like brushing or wiping paws, I handle it with care. 4. Provide Plenty of Exercise and Attention Whether it’s walks, playtime in the yard, or indoor activities, I make sure they get the physical activity and mental stimulation they need to stay happy and healthy. 5. Ensure Safety I keep a close eye on them to prevent accidents, secure any areas they should avoid, and monitor for signs of illness or distress. 6. Respect Your Home I leave your home as I found it, keeping spaces clean and secure. I treat it with the utmost respect, ensuring you feel comfortable and at ease while away. Ultimately, my goal is to provide the love, care, and attention your pet deserves while maintaining the trust and comfort of their home environment.

About: Hi! My name is Fiona, and I provide loving family-style dog boarding and daycare in our home. Our home is a spacious 3,800 sq ft house with a fully fenced backyard, giving dogs plenty of room to explore, relax, and play safely throughout the day. Dogs staying with us are treated like part of the family and are welcome on the couch, beds, and furniture if that’s what they are used to at home. I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, and our whole family loves having dogs around. We also have two children who grew up around dogs and are very comfortable interacting with them. They understand how to respect dogs’ space and behavior and enjoy playing with them. During their stay, I send daily updates with photos and videos so you can see how your dog is doing and feel connected while you’re away. Because I focus on providing a calm and comfortable home environment, I usually host only a small number of dogs at a time to make sure every dog receives plenty of care and attention. Your dog will never be lonely in our home. My husband works from home and I also have a very flexible schedule, so there is almost always someone around. Dogs staying with us receive plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. Because someone is usually home, we are able to closely supervise the dogs and make sure they feel comfortable and relaxed. I can also administer oral medications if needed. Safety is always our top priority. Our backyard is fully fenced and secure, allowing dogs to safely explore and play under supervision. We carefully introduce dogs to each other and always monitor interactions to ensure everyone feels comfortable. We also follow each dog’s feeding routine and any special care instructions provided by the owner. If needed, I can also administer oral medications.

“The cat whisperer!!!!! We love and miss you! JeanaRae was amazing with my cat! My cat is very singular and will run from everyone, but she absolutely LOVED Jenarae!”

About: We have been frequently taking care neighbors and friends’ pets. My two teenagers love to play with animals and specially dogs. We can take your dogs to the park for walking and sniffing. I am available taking care your dog at home. Also I have two little helpers to play with your fur babies to make them happy. We are living in a single house with a large yard, dogs can run and play around in the back yard even in raining day.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 13 years old. I always said that one hasn’t experienced true love till they have been loved by a dog. They truly are exceptional beings. And each on I have ever met has made a mark on me. I work from home so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I have one dog of my own so fitting another few dogs into our schedule feels quiet natural. We are a house of dog lover! The only limitation I have is that we need dogs that are friendly with kids and other dogs. I don’t have a fenced yard to separate dogs so this is a top priority for me to be able to care for them. I take the dogs out for frequent breaks through the day. And I take them all to the dog park which is 5 mins away from where I live twice a day. I provide them the food that owners provide. And if they don’t have restrictions then I provide the treats myself. I have also started offering home-cooked meals for the dogs that come to stay for long periods of time. I make home-made food for my dog and when the other dogs come they usually don’t want to eat their kibbles as they are so interested in April’s food. I make chicken and rice cooked together in the morning and rice, beef, carrots, peas, broccoli and green beans cooked together at night. But I do offer different combination of meals based on owner preference. If they have allergies to certain meats then I can substitute the meat for something that suits them. There might be price changes for that. Snapshot of meals options, how it’s calculated and weekly prices included in picture gallery. Just ask if curious about the service and have questions! I currently work from home so have lots of flexibility with schedule. I am available most days unless my calendar is blocked out on the rover app. The dogs just hang out with me at home. Owners provide their own crates. I prefer crate trained dogs as sometimes they need to be separated if energy doesn’t match.

“Ayla always goes above and beyond what I ask when taking care of my fur babies. My pets love her and I love knowing how well cared for they are.”

“Sandra was absolutely wonderful with my cat Jesse. She gave us regular updates and went above and beyond to accommodate our shy girl. Highly recommend Sandra to any pet parents!!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I've been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Our 5 children have grown and living on their own, so I currently have my sweet 2 dogs, Chica & Luna, who keep life fun, active, and full of love. In addition to my experience with pets, I've taught preschool and first grade, where safety, patience, and attentive care were always top priorities. I offer dog walks, drop-in visits, house sitting (no overnights), and can comfortably administer oral medications when needed. I truly enjoy caring for pets of all personalities, whether they're social and energetic, calm and relaxed, or a little nervous and shy. With a gentle demeanor and a strong understanding of animal body language, I take the time to build trust and help every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. During my first year of retirement, pet care fits naturally into my flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable, attentive care all day (no overnights). I provide attentive care for pets in their own home, helping maintain their normal routine, comfort, and security. I can assist with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, oral medications, and keeping pets happy and relaxed while their owners are away.
