About: I have worked with animals most of my life. I have experience administering medication of all types. When I pet sit I will run, walk, and/or continue training with dogs and puppies. I will take the time to learn what both you and your beloved pet need while you are gone and update you as much as you prefer. ❤️ Working and caring for dogs is full-time career. I love caring for dogs in my home and offering my clients detailed communication regarding their dog(s) while away. My focus is boarding, drop ins, and walks. I gladly accept reactive dogs, special needs dogs, and high energy or high maintenance dogs. When boarding, big dogs and little dogs are kept separate. During unsupervised times such as when we are sleeping dogs are either in a kennel or allowed to roam the household if they are not destructive and owners are comfortable! Generally, dogs eat twice daily unless otherwise discussed. Medications are given at the times they are needed and each dose is logged in the app for peace of mind. I send pictures and communicate each day. I also send videos if we are doing something fun. I happily work with dogs that are not dog or people friendly. With reactive or unfriedly dogs I ask for a little more notice so I do not book other dogs during that time frame. I usually host four dogs at once unless we have a reactive guest. Discounts offered, please ask me about them. :)

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs and have almost always lived in a home with three or more at a time, so caring for multiple dogs with different personalities, ages, energy levels, and needs is second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve cared for my own dogs as well as pets belonging to friends and family. I’m comfortable with puppies, high-energy dogs, seniors, larger breeds, feeding schedules, walks, medications, basic grooming, and maintaining the routines dogs are used to at home. Having a multi-dog household has also taught me how important it is to pay attention to each dog individually—reading their body language, managing introductions, giving them space when needed, and making sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. When your dog stays with me, I want them to feel like they’re staying in a home, not a boarding facility. I’m happy to follow their normal routine and provide plenty of photos and updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re being well cared for. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine since I have dogs of my own. I’m currently able to offer a flexible schedule throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. I’m home frequently, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I’m also happy to work around your dog’s normal feeding, exercise, and sleep schedule. I have a dog-friendly home with a fenced yard and plenty of room for dogs to play, relax, and feel comfortable. Since I have dogs of my own, I take introductions seriously and pay close attention to each dog’s personality and body language. Dogs can be separated or crated when needed, and I’m happy to follow any routines or boundaries you use at home. My priority is making sure every dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and gets plenty of individual attention.
About: My dad is a vet so I grew up working in his clinic so that experience helps me a ton almost on a daily basis! Currently have 3 of our own fur babies and are obsessed with them and love giving them their best life! We do have a crawling baby at home so I will probably ask you how your fur baby does with our human baby! I work full time from home which leaves lots of room to care for fur babies. Most of the time I should be fairly flexible with scheduling and availability. We have a fully fenced 1/4 acre property all grass and even a small play pool for them, and a covered patio for shade. We have 3 dogs who all get along with other dogs and are used to friends visiting. All vaccinated and healthy. Definitely would prefer no shedding or minimal shedding if you want the dog inside, but up for discussion :) will always have water bowls inside and outside and can feed as needed. I do have two crates I could use if needed.
About: Hello! My name is Em! I’m a 21 year old experienced pet caretaker! I have experienced in many different species and can accommodate to your pets’ special needs. I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and much more! Can’t wait to assist you and have the pleasure of caring for your beloved pets! I am currently employed with Rover full time. So I will be more than available to care for your pets 24/7! I do go to church on Sunday mornings, but will be back after! I currently own 1 furbaby who loves the company of other pets, but he’s also crate trained so if they need their own space, he can be perfectly secured. There are many parks and dog parks near my home so if you’re pet requires walking, I am more than happy to take them for a little trip!

About: I’ve taken care of family & friend’s horses, dogs, cats and even a bird! Most of the cats I look after are senior cats, however I also care for dogs too! (A St. Bernard, 2 daschunds, a pitbull, and 2 Rottweilers, just to name a few breeds) I’m a pretty adventure-driven person and empathetic to animals. The people I surround myself with, love to travel (as do I) and often times their dogs and cats need a reliable & established sitter so I do tend to travel out of state to pet sit and housesit when needed. I’m currently an independent artist & retired wrestler on the move to Arkansas from Kentucky. I don’t have any pets of my own but I enjoy taking care of animals of loved ones and neighbors. As I start this new chapter of my life, I’m looking to create art more while a flexible but full time job of pet sitting. You’re welcome to provide me with care instructions but I mostly just talk to animals like they’re small children learning. I sing songs sometimes when I play with toys or when we go on walks, but especially during bathing(if necessary/requested) a cat/dog to help calm their nerves. Cats tend to love cuddling with me and I love taking active dogs for walks on nature trails or car rides.

About: My experience comes from years of caring for my own dog "Griffey" and cat "Miss Kitty", along with pets belonging to friends and family. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and committed to following your instructions carefully. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, companionship, or a calm presence, I’ll treat them with the same love and care I give my own and keep you updated so you can feel completely at ease. I joined Rover because I miss having my dog in my everyday life. He is currently staying with my parents back home in north-central Kansas. My dad’s health isn’t the best, and my dog brings him a great deal of comfort, so I know he is where he needs to be for now. I return home about once a month to visit them. Feel free to reach out with any questions. Best Shawn Phelps I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most weekdays, weekends, and holidays. I can often accommodate short-notice requests and easily work around your pet’s regular feeding, playtime, and care routine. I prefer caring for pets in their own homes, where they can feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed in familiar surroundings. I will follow each pet’s normal routine, carefully secure doors and gates, respect the client’s home, and provide regular updates and photos. I have a friendly cat at home who gets along well with dogs but prefers not to be around other cats. Because of that, I would care for cats in their own homes but may welcome dogs into mine after a meet-and-greet. I’m flexible and always willing to discuss the safest arrangement for each pet.
“Tessini was awesome! She clearly really connected with Walter and cared about him like he was hers. She communicated well and sent great pictures. We will definitely use her again!!!”

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Gentry. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
