About: I’ve grown up my whole life around having a dog and always treated our pets as family so rest assured your pets will be respected as your family. I’ve been around puppies, adults and senior dogs. Would love to do meet and greet before so your puppers can feel comfortable with me and not feel like I’m a total stranger! I currently work full time in office M-Thurs 7-3:30 PM and work from home on Friday’s. I don’t work weekends within my FT job. I can be available after I’m done with work if needed, but should have more availability during the day towards the weekends. I live in a townhouse so I have to keep my dog leashed when going on walks as ruled by our HOA association. In our home our dog roams free, but during his puppy and growing stages we had him in a large playpen.

“Jaron has been walking our dog for several years. He is super reliable and gives plenty of notice if he will be unavailable. He is very sweet to her!”

About: I have had animals all my life as I grew up on a farm . Recently both my schnauzers pass away from old age. I am not ready for another pet of our own but love watching other pets. I am experienced watching all ages of dogs and cats and also administering medicine if needed. Pets will need to be kid friendly in my house , they can keep up with the energetic ones but know to be gentle with the older ones. I also love to snuggle so your pets will get lots of kisses and hugs. I have a very flexible work from home schedule, so I am able to cater to your pet's needs. They will work alongside me and I am able to take regular breaks for play time and walks depending on your pet. Safety is our #1 concern so even though we have a fenced in yard they will always be supervised. I also have locks on all our fences just in case. Our environment can also cater to the needs of your pet's personality; I am prepared to snuggle on the couch or play until we can't play anymore. I also love to take pictures so will keep you very updated! I know it's hard to leave your babies so we will do our best to make you and them feel comfortable.

About: Born, raised, and still a dog lover! I have had Border Collies, a Labrador, Scottie Dogs and now the proud owner of a squirrel and rabbit chasing Beagle! I currently work part time and from home, so I have plenty of time to devote to your pet! I take Mia (our beagle) for long walks everyday. Everyone is welcome to come along! Our apartment requires key-card access to three doors before successful entry. Numerous toys on demand, super dog-tastic biscuits and treats on tap, plus dog spa and bath if permitted!

“Ellen was a pleasure to work with. Prompt & thorough. We got pictures & updates from the walks she took our dogs on. Thanks you for making our first Rover experience a great one!”

About: I’ve taken care of my own pets and pets for family and friends. I’m excited to meet your sweet pet and get to know them! I’m working, but my schedule is flexible during the week. I can do morning, afternoon, or evening walks. I can also drop by during daytime. I care for my pets through preventative care, making sure they’re uptodate on their shots and that they are getting enough attention at the house.

About: I will make sure that I treat your dog as well as my own. I love to walk my own dogs, rain or shine, and I enjoy giving dogs the attention they need in order to be as happy as possible. I have done home visits and boarded dogs in the past for family and friends. I make sure to visit and care for them every chance I get. I do work a little outside my home but the dogs will be exercised before I leave them. I am also a runner so if you need someone to run with your dog I would love to. I am up around 4 am for feedings and to let dogs out. My morning walks are usually around 10 am. I will walk the dogs again around 8 pm before bedtime. I do have a fully fenced in yard. I have kennels I can provide if the dog needs kenneled unless it’s a large breed dog.

“Sylvia has been so caring and compassionate toward our two pups. We can tell they are so excited when she comes to visit. She has always been great with communication and we love reading her notes after each walk!”

Hannah S.

“Jodie did a fantastic job watching my special needs dog! She took the time to guide him outside and down the stairs. I highly recommend her and will be rebooking in the future!”

“Jennifer was great with my little girl! She was playing with her in the backyard, which I really appreciate!”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10. I have had many cats in my home and I love getting to cuddle them. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs and giving medication. I love cats and dogs and wouldn't mind taking care of either one or both. I am available to help you and your pets anytime. I have a very flexible schedule and would love to take care of your animals. I can provide a nice, friendly environment and I am a very timely person so if I need to come over or your animal needs fed at a exact time I can provide that. I also follow what you are wanting and am understanding of your wishes. I take TONS of photos for you and provide exercise. As well as providing a calm/quiet environment when your animal may be anxious or scared. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule which allows me to come to your home to help with your pet anytime of day. I currently have a senior dog and a cat in my home. I give them lots of attention and cuddles. They are a bit spoiled by me! I love playing with them and keeping both of them active. I will treat your pets the same way I treat my own!

About: I’ve cared for dogs since middle school and became a proud dog mom over 5 years ago. My two miniature dachshunds are my whole world; I truly couldn’t imagine life without them. I’ll treat your pups like my own, giving them all the love, care, and attention they deserve as one of their new best friends. Reach out to give your fur babies the highest level of care, straight from the heart ❤️ I am currently in between jobs and have a lot of free time on my hands!

About: Please read till the end…I have had cats my entire life, and have nothing to give to them, but love. However, only within the past 2 years have I had dogs. And boy, have I learned a lot. But, I took on two dachshund puppies at the same time, and if anyone knows much about small dogs, you know that is a nightmare/dream come true all in one. I currently have cats, dogs, my bunny, rats, fish…so, many animals in my home. And they are all happy and healthy, and loved. I have indeed been called “the animal whisperer” because people come over and are always baffled at how well my animals get along. I love animals more than anything, and their happiness is very important to me… I myself, may have a lot of animals, but I am by no means rich, or financially stable at the moment, so I understand the struggle of finding an an affordable pet sitter. PLEASE reach out to me if you cannot afford my prices, and we can work something out!! Ready to start right away!! As someone who views my animals as my children, it can feel like a full time job. But, I am very good at planning and spacing out enough time for everyone to get all the attention they need. And I am wanting to switch to a full time position as a pet sitter. Unfortunately, most care would have to be done at the clients home, because my animals (my dogs) Love other people and other dogs, but I do not feel comfortable putting that stress on my cats. However, I am reliable, I clean the cat boxes every day, and my dogs are out of the kennel as much as they possibly can be. They never smell too bad, kennel environment and cleanliness is very important to me, when it comes to their health and comfort. However, I do stick to my firmness and want them to feel like they can be themselves, but to also know that they need to listen.

“She did a great job with our dog. He's very old and she had great patience and was very attentive. She spent extra time with him rather than just get done and report often on how he was doing.”

About: Every friend or family members cat or dog has connected with me instantly, and I may not have professional pet sitting experience, but I do absolutely love all animals and will do my best to provide comfort for your fur-baby while you're busy. Even my sisters grumpy old boy Dobby loves me (and I love him too ♡). I have my own dog Piper, who is a shih-tzu turning four years old this month. She loves almost all other dogs and cats, and especially loves having new playtime buddies. We have plenty of toys and she is not aggressive when sharing. I do work fulltime with a night shift schedule. I walk and feed my pup before and after work, then we have plenty of playtime when I'm home. I treat pets like I would want to be treated, with love and respect. I give plenty of kisses and pats, and playtime is always a good time if the pet is up for it. I am hyperaware of toxins to dogs and cats, constantly keeping an eye out.

About: I've had cats my entire life, and my husband and I currently have two amazing but SUPER high energy little kitties named Eli and Finn. We are very obsessed, and they're spoiled! I have grown up in a very close, tight-knit family with LOTS of dogs and cats, and I've pet-sat more times than I can count. I LOVE animals and they tend to like me as well. I have experience with feeding, medicine, walking, vet visits, picking up animals from pet hotels, etc. I pet sit, house sit, and babysit for a lot of my family and friends, have been a nanny to my godson who has medical complications, and am well-trusted. My husband and I are going through fertility treatments, and the profit from my pet-sitting business will be supporting us in building our family! We would deeply appreciate your support while your pets receive great care in exchange! I'm in ministry school to become a hospital/hospice chaplain, a worship leader, and an entrepreneur, so my schedule is very flexible! I look forward to meeting your schedule needs. I am not able to keep pets at my home. I am able to go to the house site and take care of your fur babies, however, and spend time at your place to give your darlings some affection, give medicine, or whatever else you need done!
