About: I’ve had and been around dogs all my life, from free roaming farm dogs to the most spoiled Pomeranians. I’m the guy who has treats and a leash in his car just in case I see a loose dog running around or hear there’s one nearby. I’m the guy who will remember your dog’s name, but probably not yours. I’m the guy pet owners warn that their dog is anxious of people, only to watch their dog sense my immediate love for them. I work as a freelancer, so my availability is mostly wide open outside of some specific appointments and projects that will be noted in my profile. In your home, I will follow any patterns and schedules you request to maintain a consistent experience for your dog. I have three dogs in my home consisting of two puppies and one senior, so I will not be hosting any appointments here at this time.
“Jenna did great with all 7 of my animals- including a medically needy dog that needed monitor with food/water intake/and medications. Jenna kept the house clean, helped with extra stuff, as well as dealt with house malfunctions. Will definitely use and recommend Jenna to care for your animal needs.”
“Olivia is awesome Super friendly and my puppy absolutely loves her! She gets along well with my kids and is helpful in teaching them how to play with and train a puppy She even came at last minute's notice the first time She's fabulous!!”
“Ceana was booked at the VERY last minute as our original sitter ended up ill. She was able to come the night before we left to meet the dogs and get familiar with our home. She stayed 3 nights and everything went very well! No complaints and will definitely use her again!”
“Sarah is the exact person you are looking for to care for your pet while you’re away. They are enthusiastic and ask important questions. They also send updates and photos while you’re away. We will use Sarah to watch our dog whenever we are away and they have availability.”
“Rowan stayed with our blue heeler in our home for 6 days and was great with her. He was very patient and tolerant of her quirky habits. He took her for walks, car rides, played with her a lot and sent me many pictures. Rowan is very dependable and responds quickly to texts and asks questions if necessary. Thanks Rowan! Loved that you gave Terra your full attention while you were here.”
“Liz was absolutely amazing! She stayed a week in my home with my two Great Danes and she took great care of them! She followed a very strict food schedule, walking, and cuddle schedule to a T 🥰 My house was kept clean and she left a few new toys for them when she left! I will def be using her every time!”
“I have 2 small dogs. I was gone for a long weekend and had her come in 3-4 times a day to let the dogs out, feed them and play with them. Bri was great with the dogs. They liked her from the 1st time she came for a meet and greet. I will defiantly use her again”
“Alex was truly a dream! The BEST Rover experience we have had. Dishes done, house immaculate and most importantly Maisy LOVED her. We hope that she will stay with us for a long time!”
About: I've grown up with dogs and once I lived on my own, soon adopted 3 cats. I've had several dogs and cats throughout my life, loving them as my children. Every animal I meet melts my heart in their own special way and I fall in love every time. I would be honored to care for your fur [or scale!] baby/ies! I currently work part time at petco in the evenings mostly. I do have my own animals, but find myself always wishing I had more. I have plenty of time and heart to give! I will feed your animal the directed amount in the directed time. I will play with your cat/dog several times throughout the day. For dogs, potty breaks every 2 hours minimum. And as many cuddles and hugs as they want!
“Our boys absolutely loved Gabriella. She communicated constantly including pictures. Major thunderstorms and tornados rolled through the area while she was watching the dogs and we felt absolutely safe with them in her care. I should not singer her praises anymore as people will realize how much of a gem she really is and make it harder for me to rebook her.”
About: I have taken care of many of my friends pets since I was 12 which includes staying overnight at their homes when they are gone for weeks. I do long and short care sitting for pets. I love to spend time with pets and making sure they get the care they deserve. I am currently not working right now but will have a part time job soon. I will talk with the owners and work out a good schedule that will work best for all. Growing up we have used an invisible fence and radio collars to keep our dogs in our yard. We made sure to check in on them periodically while they were outside. While I'm taking care of my friends pets, I would play inside and outside with them, go on walks with them, and make sure they get the best care.
“Jessica is wonderful. A week before she sat for our senior dog, our other senior dog passed so she was.amazingly understandung and kind to our boy, Louie who was lost without his lifelong pal. Jessica will be our.go to from this point on. Thanks soooo much, Jessica!!!”
“Our dogs enjoyed being with Ben while we were away. Not many people would feel comfort walking our Great Dane or patio enough for our senior Greyhound, but Ben manages both dogs well. Thank you! Lisa and Doug”
About: I have had pets since I was a child. I grew up with mainly German shepherds but also have a dog of my own! I do have basic training skills from observing trainers while I worked at Petco. I work 2 jobs so this is an opportunity for me to unwind and connect with animals in my spare time. My usual work schedule is first shift so I am available after 3pm M-F for anytype of pet care. I live in an apartment with 2 cats and snake. I am willing to take a night out of the week to spend with your pet if need be in your home. They will get lots of play time and love! You can be worry free knowing that your pet will be treated with the same love and care that my pets receive.
“Kyndall is an excellent dog sitter! Very flexible with times and sent update pics throughout the day. I could tell when we got back that my Winston was well taken care of and the house looked exactly like how we left it. will definitely be booking again in the future! :)”

“For Travis, pets are family. He has a lifetime of experience of caring for animals. That’s why we always had a complete peace of mind whenever he would take care of our beagle. We knew that our energetic little buddy would be getting treated with love, care, and patience and would be happy and relaxed when we returned. Highly recommended!”
