Emily and Donnie were, again, absolutely fantastic! I accidentally messed up the dates I requested, and they were so accommodating. I was out of town for the wholeeeee day, leaving very early and returning extremely late, and they kept him safe and very happy the entire time! Updates were frequently and detailed, which is great for this helicopter pet parent! 1000x would recommend to anyone looking for top-tier pet care!

About: I’ve always had a pet dog. Our dog is older (10) but she is still energetic and loves other dogs! This will be a family effort to take good care of your beloved pet! I am currently home full time. I already care for our own pet so adding another would be seamless. Your pet is welcome to join my home! I have a backyard for them to run around in. It’s fenced but has some openings. I also have a lead leash for them. I will take good care of your pet - providing what they need and want.

My pup had a great time with Wendy! She’s clearly a big dog lover and gave him so much room to run around and play. He came back a tired and happy pup!

Falen hosted doggie day care for a shelter foster dog that we have. She was so accommodating for my schedule and even offered to keep him overnight since I would be dropping him off again the next morning. Thank you to Falen and Dani for a positive experience for both me and the foster dog.

This is our second time booking Marketa for Cadence's daycare while we were in town for an event. She did a great job with her 2 years ago that I immediately thought to reach out to her again when we returned this year. Marketa is attentive and caring with Cadence and sent us photo updates of how she was doing. She got along well with the other doggos and even cuddled up to her on the couch. I never have any worries about Cadence when she stayed with her, and would recommend Marketa to anyone in the neighborhood. Thank you!

About: I have been caring for animals for a long time, whether I was pet sitting, working at a pet shop or working in a veterinary hospital. I have over 15 years of experience helping and taking care of animals. I love being around your fury friends helping them feel safe and loved while you are away. Working at a vet also taught me how to give animals their medications if needed. I love being able to pet sit because I genuinely enjoy my time with the animals and helping the owners feel comfortable that their pets are in good hands! Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope to be hearing from you shortly! I have open availability, pet sitting is my full time job! Whether you need house sitting, a dog that needs one walk a day or 3, we can work something out! I can fit things around your schedule and to your pets needs, I give them all the gentle love and care they need while your away!

Jennifer was great with our 4.5 month old puppy. She took him outside enough that there were no accidents. Her dog and our puppy played endlessly. He slept great at night. This was his first time away. She was extremely flexible with our schedule. I highly recommend Jennifer!

About: I have been caring for animals for my entire life and have always adored learning about them and working with them. I will care for any kind of animal of any temperament and will provide an abundance of love, as caring for pets is very fulfilling for me and improves my mental wellbeing :) I am currently working as a vet assistant and will try to update my Rover schedule each month around my schedule at the vet. I am able to take pets into my workplace if you need me on days I work and are comfortable with that. I am extremely respectful of owners’ homes and will care for the pets exactly as I am asked to. I do not mind assertive or otherwise difficult temperament and will love them all the same. I will ensure to be constantly attentive and focused on meeting their needs and keeping them safe.

About: I have 1 of my own dogs who lives with me. But I also have experience with a total of 4 dogs as my parents have 3. All are Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. I am comfortable with all medium and small size dogs. I do request that they are house trained. I like to take dogs on walks but if they are smaller it is okay if they are not perfect at walking on a leash. I can even help work with them on that. I currently work a normal day job during the week. But I work remote, that means that the dogs would not be alone at all during the day. They would have someone to care for them, take them out and feed them if necessary. Every day it is not raining, I do go on a 1 mile walk with my dog on my lunch so that they get good exercise. HOUSE SITTING: I can work remote from your house providing care all day. However, my dog Charlie would also have to come with me. If this is something that you do not feel comfortable with, I can offer drop in help instead. I have 1 of my own dogs (Charlie) who lives with me full time. My apartment is fully equipped for a dog to be here safely. I have a balcony where the dogs can spend time enjoying the fresh air. My dog gets along with all other dogs and is very friendly as he used to go to daycare with many other dogs. I have the ability to walk the dogs, get them fresh air and exercise. I also have dog toys and bones available for them to use. Dogs are allowed in all areas of my place. Including the couch, dog beds and human beds. Allowing them to be where they feel the most comfortable.

About: Since I was 8 years old I’ve been responsible for all sorts of animal care-dogs, cats, pigeons, you name it. I had two dogs growing up (so I have experience with puppy and senior care) and cared for the pets of my community, so I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes of dogs and cats! I also volunteered at a no-kill animal shelter for four years so I’m comfortable caring for any pets with medical needs or trust issues. I’m in medical school, so I spend most of my days studying at home! I love to spend my breaks outside walking through the trails near my home, and there’s plenty of parks close by. I have years of experience with animal care that comes from my own personal past and my time volunteering at an animal shelter. I am willing to accommodate for your pet in order to make sure they are as comfortable as possible. Currently, I do not have any other pets in the home so if privacy is needed for your pet, they won’t have to share with a home pet!

About: Animals have always been a central part of my life. As a pet owner myself, I understand that our pets are family members, not just animals. My personal dogs receive the same love, attention, and care that I would want for any pet entrusted to me. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have more than 15 years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats, including owning and operating a nonprofit animal rescue for five years. Through my rescue work, I cared for hundreds of dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and temperaments, including puppies, seniors, special-needs pets, and dogs recovering from illness or surgery. I am experienced with administering medications, monitoring health concerns, and recognizing when a pet may need extra attention or veterinary care. I know that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I will care for them as if they were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive care and accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Because I spend a significant amount of time at home, your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and potty breaks throughout the day. I understand the importance of maintaining routines and will work with you to ensure your pet’s schedule, feeding times, medications, and preferences are followed closely. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I can provide the level of care and attention they need. Safety is always my top priority. My experience running an animal rescue taught me how to properly introduce dogs, recognize signs of stress, manage different personalities, and provide a safe environment for pets with varying needs. I have a securely fenced yard and closely supervise outdoor time. I can also accommodate medications, special feeding instructions, crate training, and senior pet care.

About: With a lifelong background in dog care — starting with my dad raising dogs and me helping care for 17 growing up — I’ve always had a special connection with animals. I now have three dogs of my own and bring that same love, patience, and experience to every pet I look after I’m currently working part-time and looking to spend more of my days doing something I love — caring for dogs! Since my schedule is very flexible, I can easily adjust my work hours and make time whenever your pets need me. Spending time with dogs truly brightens my day, so fitting pet care into my routine is something I enjoy, not just a job. my home, I have a fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play and enjoy the outdoors. I also have three friendly, well-behaved dogs who love meeting new friends! If a quieter environment is needed, I can easily crate my dogs to make sure every pet feels comfortable and secure. I always focus on giving each dog the attention, playtime, and care they deserve.
