About: Growing up, I had two giant dogs, a great dane and a neapolten mastiff, so dogs have been my thing for as long as I can remember. I've had the opportunity to care for old dogs and young, healthy and sick puppies, and each time has been an a amazing experience for the client and me! I am open, friendly, and just want to have a great relationship with some cute, happy, and friendly pups and to help their owners in any way I can. I currently have a great dane and a chihuahua to call my own, so I am excited to play and take care of any animal that needs it! I am currently working part time as well as balancing college. My mornings are generally open, as well as some afternoons and nights. My job schedule varries as well as my hours, so while unpredictable, can be easily managed around. Depending on the needs for your dog(s) I will do whatever you need me to do! From walking, to dog park energy dumps, playtime, meal time, and snuggles, etc, whatever your pup needs I will provide at the owners discretion and permission.

About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. My first dog was a Chihuahua who lived to be 18, so I learned a lot about caring for senior dogs and making sure they stay comfortable as they grow older. I've also grown up around horses and farm animals, and I even had a leopard gecko for a couple years. Most of my friends and family have dogs too, so I've spent plenty of time around all kinds of personalities and energy levels. Being around animals has always been something I enjoy! I'm a full time college student, so I have lots of extra time to care for your beloved companions! I have my own transportation and extremely flexible times. I live in an apartment with my Belgian Malinois, so I know firsthand how important exercise, structure, and routine can be, especially for high-energy dogs! I'm very organized and always do my best to stick to each pet's normal schedule so they feel comfortable and at home.

“We had Allyson do a drop in when we took a day trip to Phoenix. She had stayed with our pets for a long weekend, so we were perfectly comfortable that all would go well. And it did. She’s a great communicator and really cares about our animals. Highly recommend her!”

About: I have over two years of hands-on animal care experience and a background in veterinary medicine. I am comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies, seniors, and pets with special needs. I understand animal behavior, can administer medications if needed, and always prioritize safety, patience, and making pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own. Currently, pet care works every day of the week at all times! I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate mostly all requests, including last-minute bookings. i prioritize your pet's safety, comfort, and routine while you're away. I have experience handling dogs and cats of all ages, including seniors and pets with special needs. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, and provide plenty of love, attention, and exercise to keep your pets happy and stress-free.

“Wow, wow, wow!! This was my first time using Rover. I had no idea what to expect and only tried it because I was in a desperate, last-minute situation trying to find care for my dogs while I needed to go away on a very unexpected trip. I truly didn’t have hope that I would find someone on such short notice, but saw her profile and reached out. I was thrilled with her speedy response and her willingness to help. From the minute she walked in the door to meet my dogs, I knew she was absolutely the right fit. My girls fell in love with her instantly, and I felt such a huge relief knowing they were getting exceptional care from her while I was away. It took so much stress off me, and I loved the daily updates and pictures. I cannot say enough good things about her, and I’m now completely spoiled, because I can’t imagine finding a more caring, responsible, loving dog sitter. She is THE BEST!!!! Treated my dogs like they were her own.”

“Caira was wonderful with our two kitties! They both seemed very happy and healthy when we got home from our trip out of town. Even our shy cat seemed to open up to Caira! She did a meet and greet ahead of time and asked lots of questions and took notes to make sure we were fully comfortable. Definitely will be rebooking with Caira in the future :)”

About: I've had dogs most of my life. First was Lance, a Springer Spaniel, when i was 4-yrs old. Add German Shorthair Pointers, Weimeraners, Labs, both English and Anerican Cocker Spaniels, terrier mix breeds and my current pup is a Long Hair Chihuahua. Most of my dogs have been shelter rescues. Also, I foster dogs for local shelters. I am retired and spend most of my time at home working in my new garden reading, or crafting. When we have dog guests, our time is devoted primarily to our visitors. Human away time rarely exceeds 4-hrs per day. I have a large fenced yard to run and play in whenever they want Chewy, the Chihuahua, is a friendly companion. Indoors is a dog-friendly/dog priority 3-bdrm home. Plenty of space if a visitor needs some quiet privacy or a mim with pups wants separation. Daily walks add to our exercise regime. Balls, frisbees and dogs are shared. Treats abound!

About: Growing up on a ranch, I developed strong animal care instincts from an early age. I’ve owned four dogs, helped two deliver litters, and now lovingly care for two dogs of my own with consistent walks and routines. Growing up on a ranch, I developed strong animal care instincts from an early age. I’ve owned four dogs, helped two deliver litters, and now lovingly care for two dogs of my own with consistent walks and routines. I live in a walkable downtown area, which means plenty of stimulation and exercise on every outing. My home is calm, no kids, just two friendly dogs who love company. Your pet will follow the same reliable daily routine my dogs enjoy, with walks, attention, and a relaxed, loving environment throughout their stay.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

“Terri was the absolute best! She took great care of our dog Franklin. He was anxious being left alone and she helped to walk him, calm him, and take care of any mischief he got up to. She was in communication with us and sent us lots of pictures and videos so we knew our guy was doing well. Thank you so much!!”

Holly B.

“Jewel was very caring and attentive to my cat Cleo. She made sure to leave a detailed report after each drop in. She made sure Cleo was fed, had water available, and scooped out the litter box during each visit. Any concerns she had during her visits were brought to my attention. This is the second time I booked Jewel to catsit Cleo and I would gladly do so again in the future.”

“Shelia took wonderful care our cats when we had to go out of town unexpectedly. Thankfully she was able to accommodate us on short notice. Loved the cute pictures she sent every day so I could see my boys were just fine without us. You'll have no worries if you book with Shelia!”

About: Hi! I've had my cat Olive for 11 years and my dog Bel for 3 years. I have also taken care of close to 70 foster animals mostly kittens, with a few medical fosters, and behavioral issues along the way. I have taken courses on behavioral training for dogs as my own dog is reactive towards dogs, so I am very familiar with dog reactivity. I currently run a small 1 man business from my home and have control over my schedule to provide care to other animals regularly. I also foster other animals from time to time. My own dog is reactive and high energy and needs 3 walks a day usually with a lot of play. My cat is a large maincoon that requires a strict diet and care regimen to keep her pre-diabetes in check.

About: Growing up on a farm taught me how to truly understand animals. I learned to read their body language, notice subtle changes in their health, and provide deeply patient care. This background sets me apart from other sitters. I have firsthand experience caring for animals of all life stages, from training high-energy puppies to managing the delicate needs of senior pets. My farm upbringing instilled in me a strong sense of responsibility and a genuine, natural bond with animals. Your pets will receive dedicated, intuitive care that treats them like family I'm currently working part-time so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for sitting in your home on weekends, and weekdays I provide pet care exclusively inside your home. Because I live in a shared community household with a roommate, I do not host pets in my own space. This ensures your pets stay in their familiar environment where they feel safest. follow your exact feeding, medication, and bathroom schedules to keep your pet's day predictable. I keep your home clean, secure, and exactly how you left it.Your pets get undivided attention, plenty of playtime, and cozy companionship without the stress of a busy environment.

“Emily was incredible. She came over before my trip to meet my two cats and get a lay of the land. She explained the entire process and answered every question I had (plus some!). She was great with them and helped keep my house in tip-top shape while I was out of town. I would highly recommend her.”

About: I grew up with dogs and have been caring for them since I was young, so being around them feels natural to me. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with walking, feeding, bathing, and giving their dogs attention and exercise. I’m reliable, patient, and make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I wanted to become a Conservation Biologist at one point of my life instead I went into Public Health! My schedule is flexible, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting, and I make sure they get lots of attention, playtime, and care while you’re away. I'm a PhD student and do a lot of work from home. Live close to campus. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment in my pet-friendly apartment, with access to a small yard and nearby Himmel Park for regular walks and exercise. I carefully follow all care instructions, monitor pets closely, and ensure they feel secure and comfortable at all times. I'm a traveler and can't have my own pets but a temporary pet companion is always welcome and adored!

“Logan came to visit our kitten twice a day for the week and she absolutely loved him! He sent us updates and made us feel super comfortable! He was communicative, professional and she had the best time with him! Logan treated her with so much care, I couldn’t stress that enough! I’d happily recommend him - you can easily tell it’s his passion to be there for our fur babies.”
