About: Hi! I've been dog-sitting for the past six years but I've also been around dogs my whole life. My family has always had one or two dogs since I was young, and I adopted my furr-baby, a black lab, border collie mix, when he was a puppy. I have experience with all types of dogs from an eight year old bichon frise to a two year old boxer-pitbull, elderly dogs that need medication and everything in between. I'm very active and enjoy walking/jogging (depending on the dog) and playing with the pups I'm watching. I absolutely love dogs and love dog-sitting as a way to spend time with pups while my dog is out of state with my parents for the time being (will be moving at the end of the year so he’s spending some time with his grandparents ☺️). Let me know if you have any questions! Look forward to hearing from you and making some new doggy friends! Thanks! I work from home and am able to give my pup (and yours!) lots of attention. AM and afternoon walks. Lots of potty breaks and PM hikes and dog park adventures. This is a very dog-friendly house and they’re welcome on furniture and beds. My dog is with my parents right now but my apartment is basically his with many parks and trails close by.

About: I am a lifelong dog enthusiast, currently with 2 dogs of my own. As far back as childhood, I'd was in charge of the afternoon and evening walks for all of our family dogs. Throughout my adult life I have dog sat and walked dogs for friends and family someitmes even for weeks at a time. I've cared for teeny dogs through Newfoundlands and thoroughly enjoy them all! Experienced with reactive dogs and leash pullers. Comfortable with medications and special diets. Comfortable with puppies through elders! I currently work part time as a telehealth Therapist and I am building my case load so I have lots of flexibility to accommodate pet needs. Since I have two dogs of my own and limited space, I will care for clients' pets in their own homes and keep their routines as consistent as I can. I strongly believe consistency is important for dogs, even when their parents are away. I would be happy to set up a phone, in-person, or video meet-and-greet with any pets and caretakers beforehand to go over any pertinent details.

“Leah was a fantastic pet sitter! She took care of our two cats over Christmas and gave detailed updates everyday. This was our first time using Rover and we had a brief meet and greet beforehand that went very well. Leah is reliable and trustworthy - we wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!!”

“Katherine provides great care to my cat while I was away. She took the time to get to know her temperament and won her over with head scratches and special treats. Katherine provided thoughtful updates and photos daily. Having Katherine take care of Rory gave me peace of mind while I was away.”

Katie W.

“Jen is fantastic. She is very professional and dotes on Tako like we would. I know Tako is in loving hands and with a human who just gets cats, which is so important. Jen takes lots of photos & videos and keeps me posted on how he’s doing. Her communication is extremely fast and punctual. I’m looking forward to working with Jen in the future.”

“Mikayla and Justin are simply great. They took great care of my dog Thelma, who can be very skiddish as she is a rescue. Mikayla and Justin spent ample time letting Thelma warm up to them before taking her out for a walk. I would 10/10 recommend them for any pet care and I will definitely be booking them again for Thelma!”

About: Hi there! I’m a current YSN student doing pet care on the side. I have always had lots of animals (currently two cats) and always love to meet new furry friends of all shapes and sizes :)I would love to work with you and your animals providing the best care possible! At the moment I have fully open availability and keep my rover schedule up to date! Anything changes will be kept up to date. . I have a lot of experience with my own animals and grew up taking care of the neighborhood dogs and cats as well. Since I've been around a lot of different animals with a lot of different personalities, I can make any animal feel comfortable around me and quickly pick up on each of their individual needs.

“I really appreciated the notices of when Kelli was there to feed and check in on my cats. It gave me peace of mind knowing that they were cared for.”

About: I have experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs and cats. My responsibilities have included feeding, providing fresh water, walking dogs, cleaning litter boxes and living areas, administering medications when needed, and ensuring pets receive plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. I am attentive to each pet's individual needs and prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. I am reliable, patient, and committed to providing loving, responsible care while owners are away. I’m currently unemployed while my children are in daycare and after school programs. Outside of appointments I’m free spending time with my cats and my females kittens I currently have 2 black cats. My female whom I rescued recently was pregnant and had 6 babies(3 weeks old) I’ve also had dogs and cats in my past. I love animals. My home is clean and organized.

About: I’ve grown up with all types of animals my entire life. From dogs and cats to birdies and bunnies, I love them all! I have been blessed to share life with my yorkie-poo for the past 14 years. I’ve had to learn how to give him daily oral medications, eye drops and ear drops to keep him healthy and lively! I’d give the same love, care and attention to your fur babies as well! I am a school bus driver so from the hours of 6-10:30am and 1:30-4:30pm I am unavailable. However, I am quick to respond to any availability scheduling questions you make have! I currently live in a house with a brick-fenced in yard with 1 social senior pup (who doesn’t mind to be crated if need be) however I would love to care for your pet wherever they feel comfortable!

About: I am a Marine and Army veteran with a passion for dogs. I love all dogs no matter what size they are. I’m a decent sized guy so hyperactive or stronger dogs are no problem for me. The more playful, the better. If your pet loves to run, I’ll run right along with them. If your pet is more inclined to be on the inside, I’ll be right there. I’ll take care of all needs. Please Note: Although I love all pets especially dogs, I’m unfortunately allergic to cats. My most available times are on the weekend but I am also available during the week and can fit almost any time into my schedule. I will provide your pet with all the attention they’ll need plus more. I will be able to take them on walks around your neighborhood, play games with them, feed them, and give them their needed bathroom breaks. The house rules you have established for them will be maintained at all times.

“Jocelyn was excellent! The check ins and photos were very helpful and it was great to see her taking good care of Daisy for us. Daisy loved her and was well taken care of. Thank you!”
