About: Please note*** I cannot board pets where I live, all pet sitting (days and overnight) is done at your residence. Hello! I've had dogs and cats all my life. I am the type to keep my dogs active whether it be playing fetch in the yard or throwing the stick in the lake for them to fetch. I believe in lots of play toys and chewys so they never get bored. I also understand the dog who might be more calm, maybe a little shy and likes time alone, and that is very understandable. I am a retired nurse and know pretty well the signs and symptoms of pain or discomfort. I understand the importance of proper nutrition and availability of fresh water. I'm a unique pet/house sitter in that I travel in my beautiful Canadian Roadtrek Campervan and can house "watch" while taking care of your pets. I do not need to stay in your home. Any additional duties other than "watch" your house can be negotiated- like water a few houseplants, etc. I do ask that you provide a household electric (120V) outside plug in. My small RV uses approx. $2-$3 per day of electricity. I love animals. I have a 3 yr. old yellow Labrador myself! I travel often in my RV and we make great travel partners often stopping at dog parks 2-3 times a day on our adventures. Beau would love to have playmates! Currently I am mobile and spend Summers in WI and Winters in AZ. I will come to you. I can stay as long as you need for your pet care - up to 2+ weeks if needed. I can only provide mobile pet/house sitting. I am unable to pet sit in the home I live in. I am a recently retired nurse. I am trained not only in human CPR, but I also have dog and cat CPR training. I have given pets medication, induced vomiting -per instructions while on the phone with a vet tech (after dog ate 1 1/2 lbs of bing cherries - pits and all. Happy ending! :). When I go into a home I find myself scanning countertops and floors for potential hazards for pets - things like medications, foods, hot boiling water on stovetop with handles pointing out, etc... I am constantly monitoring for potential dangers. Sometimes things happen though, unfortunately, that can't be avoided and that's when first aid, CPR, poison control line, and Vet info need to all be available and handy. I ask that all instructions be written down and text/emailed to me 24 hours prior. That way if I have any questions, they can be answered before you leave on your relaxing worry-free vacation!

“Rowdy was very comfortable in Princesa and Bradley home. Princesa said that Rowdy got along with their dogs very well, also interacted with the neighbors and there children. When she was sitting he came and cuddled up to her.”

“We have a senior dog that needs special attention and they have done an awesome job with him. We are thankful we found them on Rover.”

About: I’ve had pets in my life since I was a child. When married and had kids, we’ve always had dogs and have cared for our dogs in every aspect, walking, bathing, grooming, vet care, etc. Currently we don’t have a pet, but our house is a perfect set up to take care of yours. Currently we are retired. We would have plenty of time to go for walks, play and relax. Our dogs in the past have used our very convenient doggy door into a fenced area for potty breaks. Your dog will be treated like one of our own, getting lots of love and attention during the day and can sleep overnight in a doggy bed or crate whichever is preferred.

“We are so grateful to have found Autumn and had the opportunity for Lucy to spend the day with her and Nala while we were gone. Autumn is highly responsive to messages and receptive to Lucy’s needs as a senior dog. We arranged a meet and greet prior and Autumn made Lucy comfortable and was flexible with us on the day of her daycare stay. Thank you Autumn and Nala!”

“Only our second visit but Candace has helped Fern feel so welcome and she is all tuckered out when she gets home which tells me she is having a great time! Thank you Candace!”

“Cate and Tim and Ainsley were great to Murphy and their place was a perfect playground. Murphy came home happy and tired. It was our first Rover and she had no stress. Highly recommend them!”

About: My husband and I are a team of active, educated individuals who love all types of dogs! My husband is a high school math teacher and I am a high school counselor. Working from home during summer has allowed us plenty of time to spend with our dog. We have a 5 year old Yellow Lab who still has the energy of a puppy! We keep up with all routine vet visits and our dog is caught up on all vaccinations including Bordetella (kennel cough). My husband and I live in town but have a large backyard to accommodate play time. We allow our dog on furniture and in our bed a night time..dogs don’t get the long, full life that is humans get, so we like to let him live it as a spoiled pup! We will love your dog like our own!

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have had both cats and dogs since I was a little girl. Caring for pets has always been a huge part of my life, and I truly love being around animals of all kinds. I currently have three dogs of my own, so I’m very familiar with daily care, walks, feeding routines, playtime, and giving pets the attention and love they deserve. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll care for them like they’re part of my own family. I have a flexible and reliable schedule that allows me to provide consistent pet care throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I am able to accommodate regular visits, overnight care, and extended stays when needed. I understand that pets thrive on routine, so I prioritize dependability and clear communication to ensure each pet receives steady, attentive care while you’re away. I provide calm, attentive care in either my client’s home or my own, always prioritizing each pet’s comfort, safety, and routine. I create a low-stress environment where pets can feel secure and relaxed, following their normal feeding schedules, exercise needs, litter box or habitat care, and any specific instructions provided. I take time to build trust at the pet’s pace, especially with shy or anxious animals, and I pay close attention to their behavior and wellbeing. Communication with pet owners is consistent so you always feel informed and confident your pet is being well cared for.

“We needed a last minute sitter and Anna was able to take our little guy on such a short notice. She did such a wonderful job with getting Louie adjusted as it was his first time. She sent pictures through out the day to help make us feel comfortable.”

About: Experienced former pet owner with expertise in puppy training and senior care—providing loving, personalized attention that makes every pet feel safe, happy, and at home. Working from home lets me give pets consistent care, attention, and playtime throughout the day, while always seamlessly fitting their needs into my daily routine.

About: Hi! My name is Bri and I am a stay at home momma who can’t wait to have pawsome adventures with your pups! 😊🐶 I have experience in feeding, grooming, walking, administering medication, and ensuring a safe environment for dogs since childhood. This began with my family dogs, which taught me the importance of love and patience with our furry family members, and this mentality has continued into my adult life with my own pups! I am a stay at home momma so I have a lot of availability and flexibility all week long for boarding, daycare, check ins, etc.! I am available for pick up/drop offs between 7am-7pm I have a large yard with a friendly fur baby of my own to keep your pet company! I also have endless tough chewer toys to keep your pup’s tail wagging!

“Michelle is truly the best - whenever I drop my dog off, she runs to greet Michelle and is so excited to see her. It’s so nice to know that my dog is in such good hands. We will be back again soon!”

About: We grew up with pets and we have a pet loving family. We have a German wirehair pointer dog, cat and raise rabbits for showing. We also volunteer at a local goat farm and help take care of goats. I work full time out of the home, Monday-Friday, so your dog will be kenneled while we are at work. Unless it’s summer or holiday then my schedule may be different. I will do morning walks and night walks and playtime outside after and before work. We have an unfenced large yard so your pet will be leashed for playtime. We have a nice larger private backyard so plenty of space for exercise.

About: Dogs have been an important part of my life for many years. I currently own an 8-year-old Siberian Husky named Storm, so I have extensive experience caring for large, energetic dogs and understanding their exercise needs. We have a large, fully fenced private backyard where dogs can safely play and explore. My family provides a loving, structured home environment, and dogs receive plenty of attention and care throughout the day. We also have two young children, so we only accept dogs that are friendly, gentle, and comfortable around kids. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and at home while their owners are away. Pet care is already a consistent part of my daily routine. I am a stay-at-home mom to two children, so I am home throughout the day and able to provide attention, care, and supervision for pets. Each day, we go on at least one longer walk with our dog, in addition to shorter potty breaks and outdoor time as needed. These walks are a regular part of our schedule and help ensure our 8-year-old Siberian Husky gets the exercise and stimulation he needs. We also spend time in our large fenced-in backyard, which gives additional safe space for activity and play. Because I’m home during the day, I’m able to be flexible and responsive to a dog’s needs—whether that’s extra potty breaks, attention, or adjusting activity based on energy level or weather. Overall, pet care fits very naturally into our household rhythm and is already an important part of our daily family routine. We start the day with feeding, potty breaks, and a walk, and we typically do at least one longer walk each day to make sure our dog gets enough exercise and mental stimulation. Since we have an 8-year-old Siberian Husky, we’re very familiar with meeting the needs of high-energy dogs and making sure they stay active and engaged. Throughout the day, pets are part of our home environment. Because I am a stay-at-home mom to two young children, I’m home and available to provide regular supervision, attention, and outdoor breaks as needed. We also have a large fenced-in backyard, which allows for safe outdoor play and extra exercise time. In the evenings, we maintain a calm routine with another potty break, feeding, and time spent relaxing together as a family. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, well-exercised, and integrated into a structured but flexible household where they are treated like part of the family.

About: My husband and I have raised 4 “rescued” dogs and one purebred during our 18 years together. We loved them all unconditionally and enjoyed all the time we had with them. We each had dogs in our prior 30 years of childhood and raising children. They were all amazing pets and we loved them as family. We had great friends who were able to take care of our dogs when we needed to go away and we are so thankful for that. I was never able to consider putting ours in a kennel. NOTE: I am very sorry to note that I have allergies so we can only accept hypoallergenic dogs for care in our home. So sorry, we love them all, but I am unable to care for other breeds in our home. If you are unsure about allergies, we could do a meet and greet to figure it out.. We dont miss an opportunity to say hello to a dog passing by on the sidewalk, admire from a distance as we’re waiting at a stoplight or any public place. Caring for your special fur-baby will be my privilege. My motivation is purely related to having dogs around to love and care for. I cannot wait to love, care for and protect your special family member! I will be glad to share pictures and updates with you to put you at ease while you are away. We know how important it is when you entrust your family member to others. For first time stays and especially long term stays, we would welcome an initial visit to meet your special family member and let you see the surroundings where your pet will be cared for. I work from home Monday-Friday. I am an early riser on the weekends as well. My husband and I are available all days of the week to care for dogs. We love to have dogs on our lap or at our side. We cannot wait to meet yours and care for yours. I do not have any pets in the home and we will lovingly be with your pet at all times, including while we take them outside for a walk or potty breaks. I want to hear all about your pets daily activities and things that are important to you and your dog in their daily living. We understand the importance of dietary needs specific to each animal and will absolutely honor your requests specific to daily food plans and treats.

“She responded immediately to our last-minute request to take our dog for the day. She let us know what to expect and how she would feed Aggie. She was willing to keep her even longer than I requested, since we weren't sure when we would be back. She even offered to walk her out to the car under an umbrella during the storm! Aggie came back to us happy and tired out. I'm so glad we booked with Elizabeth W!”

“Brianna has been such a huge blessing for our family and for our pup, Vince. He absolutely loves going to her house – her kids are so sweet with him and he’s become part of the little pack with her dogs. You can tell she really understands dogs and manages the energy in her home so everyone feels safe and included. I always feel confident dropping him off because I know he’s supervised, loved on, and genuinely having fun. We’re really thankful to have found someone we can trust with our boy during long work days and trips. Highly recommend Brianna if you want your dog to have a second home.”

About: Hi there! I’m a longtime dog lover, mom of three, and an experienced pet sitter who firmly believes dogs are family. I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes and personalities and genuinely love getting to know each pup’s unique quirks. My home has one friendly dog of our own, so your pup will have a furry friend around. I live in a townhouse with a small yard, but that doesn’t stop us from getting outside. Daily walks, playtime, fresh air, and plenty of couch cuddles are all part of the deal. I’m also comfortable administering medication in pill form when needed. With three kids ages 6–11, patience, flexibility, and a little chaos are basically part of my daily routine. 😉 Most importantly, I’ll treat your pup like one of my own, keep you updated with photos, and make sure they get plenty of love while you’re away. Since I work from home, pet care fits really naturally into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, so I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, let them out as needed, and work in walks and playtime around my schedule. I also have flexibility throughout the day for feeding, medication, potty breaks, and extra cuddles. My home is a safe, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment where your pup can feel at home while you’re away. I have one friendly dog of my own, and I’m happy to provide a meet-and-greet beforehand to make sure everyone is comfortable. Since I work from home, pets get plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I have a small townhouse yard for quick potty breaks, plus daily walks and playtime for exercise and enrichment. I also have a designated quiet space where a dog can take a break when needed, whether that’s behind a baby gate or in their crate—whichever you and your pup are most comfortable with. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding instructions, medication needs, and any special preferences you provide. My goal is simple: a happy, safe pup and a pet parent who feels completely comfortable while they’re away.
