6. Suzanne S.
“Suzanne dog sat my chocolate lab for a week while I was gone on vacation. In his stay, she did exceptional work. My dog came back with clean ears, cut nails, a bath, and even some manners. She sent me daily reports with pictures and offered FaceTime videos so we could checkup on him. She kept him busy in her large fenced in yard as he got to meet new dog friends. She constantly stocked toys for them to play and food and water at appropriate times according to the owner. Her prices were great as well and she is now working with us for training. I would recommend Suzanne with confidence that she will take care of any dog.”

About: **Please note I am disabled and hard of hearing. I will always prefer texts over phone calls. **Check out what your babies get up to and the pictures/videos I didn’t end up sending on our Facebook or Instagram page, Zig Zag Wag pet care! I have experience with a variety of animals, including dogs and cats, horses and livestock, rodents and reptiles, and everything from basic grooming including nail trims and baths to basic behavior training. (See safety section for further details) I have experience with basic first aid. I have pretty much free and short notice availability, thought I limit bookings on WEDNESDAYS and SUNDAYS as my days off. I have a whole zoo worth of pets and need to stop by my own house throughout the day, so any house sitting will be based on regular visits. I have reliable transportation and excellent driving skills in case of needing to transport. My vehicle has a crash tested seat belt and I have a few crash tested harnesses if you do not have one, though providing your own sized for your dog is preferred. I will not provide transport for animals other than cats or dogs and cats and small dogs must be tolerant of being crated for the ride. I am great at working with your schedule with at least 2 hours notice, but Rover does not allow easy schedule changes. If you need to reduce your visits, CANCEL the booking and REBOOK with your new dates, as once Rover confirms your booking it won’t let you reduce the current rate. In your home, I offer basic cleaning services and can ensure any messes get cleaned. I can meet many varied needs and am meticulous with following your house rules for your pets. I do not offer boarding or allow client pets at my home. I will not provide food or other consumables, though I will confirm what treats your pets can have because all good pets deserve treats. I provide basic behavior assistance such as teaching your dog that jumping on people is inappropriate, basic tricks (sit, down, paw), leash manners, but I DO NOT OFFER PAID TRAINING. I am not a certified trainer in any capacity, though I have trained many of my own animals (including rats and cats!)

12. April S.
About: I am a Las Vegas native that throughout my whole life dogs have always been a part of my everyday activity. Whether it be taking care of my own throughout my childhood or at the age of 15, starting to take care of other people's furry little friends. I have always had a love for being around and taking care of them. I started caring for dogs at a young age for a family friend, walking, feeding, and just loving on them, and by word of mouth was referred by them to someone else and then to someone else and the process continued. It definitely gives me satisfaction to know I am there caring for someone's pet and that they don't have to worry about their dog child/children being taken care of and getting the love that they would be getting as if they were home. I think the golden rule works for them as well. Take care of someone else's dog the way you would want your dog to be taken care of.
13. Ashlen D.
“Ashlen is the best caregiver for our fur babies! She pays attention to detail, and gives each of them the love and attention they need while we’re gone. Ashlen is reliable and trustworthy and our animals love seeing her.”

I love to watch them act as goofballs, I have had pets since I was young, I listed 20 years but it's much longer than that. I have a german shepherd service dog that is 4 years old and a 18 week old plott hound I rescued. My kids have a cat named Binx, and a Gecko. I have taken care of cats several times with no problems. Can't wait to take care of your pets! Retired Volunteer Fire Chief/Medical Responder Coach Little Baseball and Basketball President Of Nonprofit for Veterans, 1st Responders, Nurses with mental illness. My schedule is very open. I do occasionally have dr appointments, and help take and pickup my kids from school. But I will work around that the best I can. I will come to your house and spoil your baby. Take them on leashed walks, bathe if needed and just spend good quality time with them.
15. Carly C.
“Carly is an incredible dog mom! Working at an animal shelter and fostering many dogs has allowed her to be an exceptional dog carer, always knowing how to handle every situation or emergency. I always call her when I have a question regarding my dogs. She loves her two pups endlessly, is very active, and always puts the dogs' needs first. I know she would take amazing care of your dogs as well!”
16. Sabrina W.
“I can't recommend Sabrina highly enough for her exceptional care of my dogs. She consistently goes above and beyond, taking them on long, enjoyable walks and ensuring they get plenty of attention and playtime. Her dedication to their well-being is evident in their happy demeanor and wagging tails every time she arrives. Sabrina’s reliable and affectionate approach has made her an invaluable part of my pets' lives. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares and treats your dogs like their own, Sabrina is the perfect choice.”

19. Alex L.
“Alex has a ton of experience caring for her own dogs and others as well. Back a few years ago, I had a Rover account and took in dozens of dogs during a period when my freelance work was sporadic. Alex actually did 90% of the work even though I was responsible for the results. Together, we earned a consistent 5-star reputation and enjoyed a lot of repeat business. (Look up Justin Lambert in Stony Point, NC) Since then, she's also studied and become adept as a dog trainer. Her own dog, Fezzik, is the smartest, most obedient dog we've ever owned.”
