“Alejandra was awesome! She took care of my dog and cats on short notice. She is professional and thorough. Alejandra communicated well and provided updates for every visit. I would highly recommend requesting her services. 10/10 experience!”


About: Ever since I was 9, I have taken care of dogs and cats from ranches to homes, and from walks to simple home care visits. I and currently PRN and going to school during the week days, with the PRN my availability may vary but more than likely I am available. My classes are only in the mornings with only one being in the afternoon, which gives me plenty of time with your furry babies. I am a great problem solver and will always work in the best interest of your pet. If I am unsure about anything that can possibly hinder your pet's safety I will always ask you. I want your babies safe and you stress and worry free.

About: Hi there! I’m Brian, and along with my 17-year-old daughter Natalie, we’re a dog-loving duo offering reliable, affectionate care for your pets. We share our home with our sweet English Pointer, Cassie, and four cats, Luna, Willow, and Evie, and bring over two decades of pet experience to every walk, visit, or stay. I’ve had dogs and cats for 24 years, including two other English Pointers, so I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family member. Natalie and I are both gentle, patient, and love getting to know each animal’s unique personality. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, calm companionship, or just a little extra TLC, we’re here to help. We are happy to do meet-and-greets ahead of time to make sure everyone is comfortable. We can accommodate a variety of needs and we’ll always keep you updated with messages and pictures so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I work from home with a pretty flexible schedule and Natalie is a student at Penn with free time on weekends and evenings. We will not show ourselves as available if we are not. I care for my dog, Cassie, who is an active English Pointer, by taking her to the dog park, spending time on the couch with her, and giving her lots of love. Natalie cares for her cats by making sure they are stimulated and have lots of treats.

About: I've been in the animal field for 25 years and in the veterinary specific field for almost 20. I have a special interest in senior or special needs kitties and can easily administer medications and subcutaneous fluids. I'm patient and flexible and work well with owners to provide specific care needs for your critter companions and family members. I work full time currently at a veterinary clinic but am available early mornings, evenings, and afternoons when not scheduled. Available most weekends and holidays as well. I am patient and understanding of all varieties of animals, but have a special bond with feline companions. I work well with even the spiciest or scared kitties to make them comfortable and safe while in my care.

“Victoria was so attentive to my puppy and provided a BUNCH of pictures and updates. I was very nervous leaving my puppy with someone new for the first time, but Victoria was understanding and made it as smooth as possible. Jasper was in a great mood and slept really well that night after we got home. Will definitely be rebooking with her for regular walks.”


About: I managed a pet store for 7 years. Handling dogs helping a groomer. I checked them in for appointments and checked them out for pick ups. Depends on what is needed. I work part time. I also work around my bookings. I’m very flexible. When I dog sit I make it all about the dog and treat them as if they are children. I prefer your home. I care for them by whatever directions or schedule you prefer if there on a routine or not. I love your dogs as if they were mine.

“Paige is FANTASTIC. My GR puppy Samson is very high energy and needs walked during the day. Paige has been very receptive to his changing health needs this past week too and was more than willing to help administer medication if he needed it during the day. You will NOT regret booking with Paige. She has been my life saver with my busy job. I know Sam loves her too, he’s always tuckered after their walks!”


About: I love dogs and cats-my two pets are just like children. I have always had a pet and I enjoy wet dog noses, puppy breath, and kitty purrs! I will treat your fur-babies just like family and make sure they are happy and cared for. I am reliable, responsible, and trustworthy, and I keep a very organized schedule. I took a long break from Rover due to training and activities with my own dog, COVID shutdowns making everything difficult, etc. I will be offering services during the times of early mornings, evenings and weekends as I do work a full-time job during the weekdays (during the day). I can provide trusted care for your pets-dogs on a leash, monitored playtime, and poop pickup for dog potty. If a pet has pottied or jumped water/food I can clean that up also.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats since my sophomore year in high school! I’ve never had an issue with a pet and love being able to help :) I’m currently on my summer break so I would like my availability to be Monday- Friday and I can make exceptions on weekends for emergencies :) I have a fenced in yard but prefer to care for your pet in the comfort of your own home as I think that makes meeting and interacting with your pet much easier and comfortable!

About: I have trained my cat to use the toilet like a human, she is very nice and would love to play with any pets who visit. I look forward to working with any pets you may bring. I am currently between jobs so I am available to play with your pups 24/7 for now, the job I am interested in would be night shift as well so I would be gone whilst they sleep and back for play during the day. I am very loving and careful, I love all animals and have much experience with all sizes and personalities of pups and cats. I will give them all the love and attention they desire.

About: Now in Elkhart, IN! I first started out in the dog world working in doggy daycares. I started to realize there’s a huge amount of wonderful dogs missing out on fun simply because they don’t fit daycare or dog park standards. I was watching dogs get turned away for creating problems out of boredom or stress due to the chaotic environment. I saw owners leaving confused and dogs leaving misunderstood and even labeled. Every dog deserves to be out and about! That’s when I started my own walking/exercise business out of St. Charles MO. Six years later and we’ve had a BLAST! I provide customized outings that cater to your dog and what they love most. Outings build confidence, burn energy, enforce good behavior and teach new skills. We explore a variety of activities like biking, hiking, swimming, dry land mushing and frisbee. We have fun with strengths and work on weaknesses. I am looking forward to bringing the fun to the dogs of IN! 2 hour field trips are available at $50/outing I offer three different services: neighborhood walk, field trip and day care - on the go! Neighborhood Walks consist of exploring anywhere within walking distance of your home. They can be booked for 30mins - 1.5 hr. Field Trips allow for more exploring, more exposure training and more intense exercise. We will drive to a park away from home. These outings are 2hrs. $50 first dog; $35 each additional Daycare -on the go! is the full package. We go all over! This is a 5hr day from time of pickup to drop off. Daycare - on the go! is a group outing where your dog will meet and build a relationship with two - three other day camp dogs. They spend the day together as a group hiking, swimming, biking, exploring, playing and training! My daycare dogs have more park patches than most people! Solo daycare options are available as well in case your dog does not particularly enjoy other four legged friends. $80/dog I have been so incredibly lucky to run my dog Field Trip and Daycare - on the go! business for the past six years successfully and safely in MO.

About: I currently have a Golden Retriever who is 6 years old. He has changed my life entirely in the best ways ever and has also made me more responsible and patient. Apart from that I have always loved dog-sitting for any family member’s pet and therefore I would want to extend my care and services for others! I am currently working part time and I am also a university student too! I am able to care for your furry friend during the weekends when you need time for yourself :) I care for pets specifically catering towards their needs as well as actively making sure I stick to their routines. Whether that be being fed, walked, or taken out for a potty break at specific times I will do it for them to keep up with their schedules and to feel comfortable.

About: I’ve been a dog lover my whole life. I grew up with two beautiful Huskies who were part of my family throughout my childhood. Caring for them taught me responsibility, patience, and how to truly connect with animals. Since then, I’ve had experience dog sitting for others, providing love, attention, and dependable care to pets of all sizes and temperaments. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or simply spending quality time, I treat every dog like my own. Im currently on vacations and have everyday free. I want to have a summer job while I have fun and this is the best way I can think of. I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their environment, whether it’s their home or mine. I follow routines closely, keep areas clean, and never leave pets unattended. Building trust is key. I give them the love, attention, and structure they need to feel secure

About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a child. I am new to the area and would love to have some canine warmth in my life. Currently missing my dogs who live with my parents. One is a pure bred border terrier, Sadie, and the other is a mutt from the pound, Charlie. I moved to the area for graduate school. I have classes throughout the week and would be able to care for pets before and after classes. I have another part-time gig as a soccer trainer, which doesn't take up more than 2-3 hours a day. I live in an apartment with a dog park. There are also trails around my complex. I do not have anything like crates or cages in my unit for dogs.

About: I love pet! and I have been spending my life with them since I was young. I have dogs as my pet now and I used to pet cats before, so I don't mind taking care of cats :) I've been with puppies, aging dogs, and disabled dogs. I like teaching some tricks for them! My dogs know how to roll, wait, speak, lay down, and give a hand :D I love to see them well-groomed! so If you want me to make them smell good, I would love to take a bath for them. If your dogs are energetic, I don't mind taking them to do activities, such as running. If your dogs stay overnight with me, I would use them as my bear lol

About: Hi there!! I love both dogs and cats, and look forward to taking care of them. I've had many pets growing up. Habló Español también. As of right now I am available and flexible on time as school is out. I have been trying to find a second job, and would much rather prefer this to be my 2nd job as I enjoy going on runs with my dog and hanging out with my furbabies (I also have 2 cats). Why not make money while having fun and meeting new furbabies? I live near downtown Elkhart (heading towards Bristol). I live in a very safe and quiet neighborhood where there is plenty of space to walk, run, and enjoy a large field of grass (if allowed to be off leash).


About: Allow me to take care of your four legged friend. Your dog will enjoy running and lounging in the open areas. After plenty of fresh air and outdoor exercise he will enjoy a sleepy snooze on one of the many cozy spots that he will find in a quiet home. Take the stress away from leaving your loving pet and let me take care of him while you are away.I like to do a " meet and greet" to see how the dog gets along with me and my own dogs. I do not have a breed preference. Of course I would like to know if the dog has any health concerns or behaviors I should know about, the dog's. My daily routine is wake up let animals outside. Then feed. Then I take care of myself. Relax, go for a long walk with them or run. I am free most days and weeks. I have 30 acres of fence in yard. I have a horse pasture I made it where the dogs can't get out they also have a indoor area where they can relax in shade. And water 24/7.
