About: Hi, I’m Alec. I provide dog walking, drop-ins, and house sitting with a focus on reliability, communication, and genuine care. Certified in pet cpr, I take the time to understand your dog’s routine, needs, and personality so they feel comfortable and confident while you’re away. I always offer a meet-and-greet so your dog can get to know me first. During visits, I keep everything consistent — walks, feeding, play, and any medication your pet needs. I also send clear updates with photos and videos so you stay informed and never feel stressed about how your pet is doing. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my priority. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup. Being a travel agent gives me a flexible schedule, allowing me to care for pets throughout the day while working remotely from anywhere — home or on the go. I make sure my pets get plenty of love and attention every day. Between walks, playtime, feeding, and keeping them active, they’re always happy, healthy, and cared for.

About: I have taken care of dogs for 15 years. From puppies to seniors, Dachshunds to Pitties. I’ve owned my pit for 15 years and I adore him with my life. I have dog sat for a whole week even commuting to and from work to make sure their pup was safe and healthy. I have dealt with all the beautiful and not beautiful moments with my furry friends and I will always make sure to take care of them and make them feel at home with me. I am currently working full time at a doggy boarding facility and get my schedule a week in advance. I will make sure that the week ahead is confirmed for anyone who needs me. I make sure to continue the schedules my clients supply to me. I have a dog with a very specific diet, so I will be sure your dog gets all their meds and proper food so they stay in great health! I also am active so long walk and play time are no stranger to me! If your dog is more mellow I will match their energy and pace so they can feel comfortable and secure. I am Dog CPR certified and Dog behavior certified, so I am able to work around all personalities!

We felt comfortable leaving our dog in her care. She even sent some photos which was very thoughtful. She accommodated all our requests and we were extremely happy.

Kristen was truly incredible. She was flexible, so so sweet, and took the best care of our puppy!! We hired her to come help us for 4 days during our wedding weekend in New York. She sent us plenty of photos, gave us tons of updates, and was the best Rover we’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. She also is a pet photographer and took so many amazing pictures that we will cherish forever!! Thank you from all of us, Kristen ??

About: I have grown up with and around dogs, big and small, my entire life. Cared for dogs from a puppy age all the way through the elder years. Know that all dogs have their own personalities and needs and am able to adjust accordingly. I believe in strong communication with the pet owners. They know their dogs the best and will be an extension of them when they are not around. I’m a boat captain and looking to spend time helping others and their dogs during the off season. I am free during the days and most evenings. Given enough notice I should be flexible enough to adjust to almost any schedule. Being a captain, I have to run a tight ship, be aware of my surroundings and monitor safety constantly. I approach pet care the same way. I care for my pets like they are a human, I treat them nice and with respect, after all pets have strong intuition for good people, and I strive to live up to their high expectations.

I have experience with large dogs to small dogs, scared and nervous dogs, Mouthy and jumpy dogs, walking strong pulling dogs, administering medication and Grooming! I am just looking to fill my free time doing something I love and passionate about! I’m currently working part-time at an animal shelter and I just received my dog grooming license.

We left our 8 month old puppy for five days(4nights) with Jess. It was the first time we left her since we got her and Jess was a great fit for our family. She kept us updated, and made us feel so much calmer about leaving her. She even helped Maple keep up with her basic training skills. Will definitely be keeping her contact information for the future!
