“Thank you Katie! Chickens aren’t easy or always fun to wrangle! We appreciate your consistency and creativity getting them cooped each night and making sure they were safe. We also appreciate how communicative you were during our trip.”

About: 🐾 Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I grew up surrounded by all kinds of pets, including dogs, cats, fish, and horses, so caring for animals has always been something I genuinely love. I know how much trust it takes to leave your beloved pet in someone else’s care, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in good hands. ❤️ I take reliability seriously. When I commit to caring for your pet, you can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and attentive to their needs. I understand that plans can change and that life gets busy, but your pet’s care should never be something you have to worry about. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your furry friend is receiving plenty of love, attention, and care. I’m also a proud cat parent to a wonderful Bengal cat who is incredibly sweet and has a great personality. 🐱 Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, companionship, or simply a dependable person to look after them, I’d love the opportunity to help! 🏡 For overnight stays at my home: Please note that your dog or cat must be comfortable around another cat, as my Bengal will be sharing the space. I’m happy to chat beforehand about your pet’s personality and needs to make sure it’s a comfortable and happy fit for everyone. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and well-being are my priority. I’d love to meet you and your furry family member! 🐶🐱💕 I am employed with a full time job and go into the Downtown office Monday through Friday. Depending on where you are located, I am able to make visits during lunch. I am very respectful of someone’s home and will respect your home as I do my own and how I would like a visitor to be in my own home.

About: Do you have a dachshund that you’re nervous to leave in someone else’s care because of how unique they are? I completely understand. I was the same way with mine. Dachshunds have their own little quirks, and their backs require some extra care. I know how important it is to have someone who understands how to properly pick them up and why you don’t want them constantly jumping off beds or couches. My home has stairs leading up to both, so they can get where they want to go without putting unnecessary stress on their backs. My husband and I also work from home full-time with flexible jobs, so your Velcro pup won’t be left alone. I’m able to give them lots of attention, hang out with them throughout the day, and take them outside as many times as they need. 5–6 times a day? No worries! I’ve watched multiple dachshunds for friends I’ve met through our local dachshund meetup, and I’ve really enjoyed getting to know each of them and their little personalities. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dachshund with someone else, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in good hands. I decided to offer my services on Rover because I know what it’s like to be new to town and not have someone you trust to watch your dog. If you’re looking for someone who already understands dachshunds and all their little quirks, I’d love to meet you and your pup! My husband and I work from home every day, so we are at the beck and call of your pup! Whatever they need, I can provide: all day cuddles, potty outside breaks, mid-day walks… you name it. I have a knack for reading animal behavior- dogs have very clear warning signs when they’re on edge, shy, excited, etc. I will make sure your pet stays safe and comfortable and avoid any situations that may cause any doubt

“I have to leave a review for Brandy cause she’s so amazing. My dog (very nervous) absolutely loves her. She walks my dog 5 days a week. I even increased to 2X per day because my dog likes her so much. And now when I travel and Brandy stays, my dog doesn’t get stressed and doesn’t even seem to care I’m gone. She’s super reliable and has helped me out last min so many times! And whenever she stays here I swear it’s cleaner than when I left!”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I’m reliable, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, medication, and of course, plenty of updates and photos. I have a pretty flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my day. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, or just keeping your pet company. I’m also happy to follow their usual routine so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’ll care for your pets the same way I’d want someone to care for mine—with lots of patience, attention, and love. I’ll always follow your instructions and respect your home and your pet’s routine. I’m also very comfortable with shy or nervous pets and will give them plenty of time and space to warm up at their own pace.

About: I've taken care of several types of dogs since I was a kid. Neighbors and relatives have relied on me to take care of their fur babies. I have experience taking care of dogs of all sizes I'm so excited to meet your pet! I'm currently a college student so I have free time before and in between classes to drop by. I am free in the mornings before 10 a.m. and in the afternoons after 4 p.m. I also have a lot of availability on the weekends. I can help take care of your dog by taking them on walks throughout the day and by dropping in to check on them and let them outside. I have a lot of experience taking care of pets and can help in whatever way you need.

“Morgan was wonderful with our three babies ! She was so available, accommodating, and they all loved her . She even extended one visit and happily helped us out by adding on an additional early morning visit we hadn’t originally booked . I was super uneasy about leaving my 9 y/o pup overnight alone as he’s always had someone , but with Morgan’s care, I feel very comfortable doing it again :)”

“Best Sitter/Drop In Person ever!! She made sure my cat was fed, has water, and kept his litter clean for a long weekend while I was away. Our kitty, Richard Parker looooved her. He cuddled with her and played with her at each drop in and she sent us such cute pictures of our fur baby. I would love to book Marsha again the next time I need someone to take care of R.P. for a long weekend! Thank you so much Marsha!! You did so awesome!! I can’t thank you enough for all your help at keeping our fur baby safe and happy!! ❤️❤️❤️”

About: Hey there! I’m Kristin. I moved here from Austin TX earlier this year to explore life in a new state close to the mountains. I now live on SoBo next to Platt Park and work in the software space. I would love to take your pup for a walk in your neighborhood or host them at my apartment while I work remotely! My experience includes 12+ week-old puppies, blind/deaf dogs, diabetic dogs, and happy healthy ones too. Since I work remotely full time I’m available for: • Drop-ins from 8am to 8pm • Weekend walks any time (For boarding we’ll take longer walks on trails if you’re comfortable with it) • Weekday walks around 12pm or 5:30pm - 8pm • Dog-boarding depending on the temperament/house-training skills - (apartment living makes this trickier) • Doggy day care - hang with me while I work from home! TLDR; your dog will be in great hands! I work from home so I’ll be around the majority of the day Monday - Friday. If you don’t see a certain option open for the days you need, feel free to ask anyways and we will see if we can make it work! For boarding: I live next to a neighborhood that I can take your dog out to for walks and potty breaks, and we are right by some parks so I could take your dog to those to explore (leashed).

Grace is amazing. She took such great of my 3 cats - they seemed to warm up to her so quickly. Grace sent updates each day to let me know the cats were eating, drinking, playing. I never worried about them once. She also made sure everything was clean and tidy for my return home. Truly above and beyond care!

I had such a great experience with Regan! She was able to accommodate Oliver on very short notice and even made time for a meet and greet despite her busy schedule, which I really appreciated. She was so sweet with Oliver, and I loved receiving photos and updates during his drop-in visits. When I got back home, Oliver was happy and in great spirits, which gave me so much peace of mind. I would absolutely book with Regan again and highly recommend her!
