Rachel has been absolutely amazing! She has the best spirit and is so gentle and loving with my pup Maverick. She’s given me a peace of mind knowing that I can depend on her to walk him while I’m working. I highly recommend Rachel’s services!!

About: While your pets are in my care, they will be treated as if they were my own. I will assist you in training your puppy to master the basic commands: sit, stay, and come. I am retired so your pet care is my first responsibility. During the summer, I will walk in the morning with potty breaks in the afternoon if it's too hot. During winter, if the weather doesn't permit driving, I will contact you and ensure that as soon as I can drive, I will be there to give your pet much-needed potty breaks and playtime. For more detailed availability, please see my public calendar https://calendar.app.google/1EpS26QNofEFAmsH7 Your pet's safety is my #1 concern. With that in mind, I will only walk when the weather permits. I will give them time to take care of their business and plenty of play time when the weather does not permit a walk.

About: I bring lifelong experience in canine care, beginning in childhood and continuing through the present. I currently care for five dogs and have extensive hands-on experience managing multiple dogs at once, including the care of three litters and several additional dogs in the past. I am available seven days a week with flexible hours. At this time, I am seeking a position that offers flexibility rather than a full-time commitment, and I am eager to pursue work that aligns with my experience and interests. If needed, I am able to safely crate your dog or place them in a designated area. I am experienced in handling dogs that are uncomfortable walking on a leash and can manage them calmly and confidently. I also ensure that all basic needs are met before departure, including providing food and fresh water.

About: I genuinely love all dogs, and pugs hold a special place in my heart! I own two! Their unique personalities and affectionate nature make them such a joy to care for. That said, I enjoy spending time with dogs of every breed, age, and size from playful puppies to wise senior dogs. What sets me apart is my patience, attention to detail, and ability to connect with animals on their level. I have experience with basic training for puppies, administering medications to senior dogs, and giving each pet the individualized care they deserve. Whether it’s cuddle time, walks, play, or helping with training, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I am an animal lover. I’m currently working a part-time job with a very flexible schedule that I can decide, making me available to watch your pups any day of the week! Whether in your home or mine, your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow their routine closely, provide a calm and clean environment, and make sure they feel secure and loved. I’m attentive, trustworthy, and always happy to give updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes (as well as cats) since high school. I have two cats of my own, and grew up with (big) dogs. I’m very comfortable with both overnight stays and drop-in care. I also have lots of experience with multi-pet homes. I’m currently working part-time in the summer, and will be taking college classes starting in September. I’m always free to drop in for mealtimes and walks, and either in the morning or evening can provide more in-depth attention. I am only able to work in clients homes, where I can adapt to any environment necessary, from long walks to backyard play to crate training.

About: Hello, My name is Sydney, and I’m excited to offer my services as a pet sitter through Rover. Animals have always been a big part of my life—I currently care for 18 pets, including dogs, cats, chinchillas, a bearded dragon, and chickens. This hands-on experience has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, care routines, and the importance of providing individualized attention to each pet’s unique needs. I am comfortable administering oral medications and have experience caring for senior dogs, including those with mobility challenges or special health considerations. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, a gentle stroll, or some extra TLC, I’m committed to ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for in your absence. You can trust that I will treat your pet like one of my own—offering patience, affection, and reliability. I am also happy to provide regular updates, photos, and any special care requests to give you peace of mind. I look forward to the opportunity to care for your furry (or scaly or feathery) family members and ensure they are happy and comfortable while you’re away. Best regards, Sydney I work during the week Monday through Friday. On Mondays I typically work from home, so I’d be able to do drop ins on Mondays, and on Fridays I work in the office for a half day, so if you go on a weekend getaway I could start earlier on Friday afternoon. I also am off on weekends, so I have full availability then. I can also do evening check-ins any day of the week. When going into someone else’s home, I make sure to follow any rules that the family has in place for me. When caring for a pet in someone else’s home, I don’t mind spending extra time with their pet as I know sometimes animals can get lonely and miss their humans. I will be sure to make sure they are well fed, always have water, get lots of pets/snuggles, and I’ll be sure to send updates and photos. If there is anything wrong when checking on your pet, I will be sure to let you know immediately and will take your pet to a vet.

About: I grew up with cats and dogs of all kinds and ages. Senior and puppy/kitten pet care are part of my experience. From long walks, to fun games, to specialty foods and injury recovery, I’ve seen and done it all. Your pets will be well loved and cared for by me. Currently, I have a wide open schedule as I prepare for my next job in the next few months. I can do multiple walks a day or stay overnight with pets.

About: Our family has had pets for many years. We decided to offer our boarding and day care services as a "family" business, and to possible do this during retirement. We are active adults, and still have a teenager in the home that helps with this endeavor, as he is saving up for his first car. I am currently retired and work part time. Other members of the household also work flexible schedules, thus can meet the needs of most pets and pet owners. We are typically available most weekends and holidays. Our home is pet friendly. We have all vinyl flooring, and a large fenced in backyard. We also have the ability to take daily walks as our road is not heavily traveled. We live off the road, and our furry guests really enjoy looking out all the windows and doors at the squirrels, chickens and other wildlife. Our home is usually calm and mellow, so you your pet cannot handle a lot of barking/noise, they will probably love our home! We do not crate our furry friends, except out of the request of the owner. Although we have listed one pet at a time, we will take up to two from the same household.
