About: I’ve taken care of dogs and of every kind since I was a student. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bath their pets. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pets. I’m available for drop in visits and walking on weekdays. I have a yard in my house and my pets usually walked back yard very comfortable. Also, I take care your pets very nicely and carefully at same then my pets.

About: With nine years of dedicated pet‑sitting experience, from raising puppies and owning pets my whole life, working at a stable, to working in a vet office, I’ve cared for a wide variety of beloved companions—horses, dogs, cats, and even parrots! I bring a personal approach and professional skill set to every job and try to treat each animal like my own. What Sets Me Apart- Reliable communication: I send frequent photo and video updates so owners can relax knowing everything's going smoothly. Home-away-from-home care: My goal is to replicate each pet’s normal environment—whether that’s the pasture, living room, or aviary—so they feel at ease in your absence. I’d love to chat about how I can provide compassionate, professional care for your furry or feathered family members. Feel free to ask about my routines, special animal skills, or typical day—you’ll know your pets are in great hands! I work from home and have a pretty open-flexible schedule. When I agree to a job, I make sure my life goes around your animals as much as I can. We have a fenced yard and dog pen in the yard as well. We have a loving, 2 year old Aussie that would love to play with your friend or I can crate either your pet or mine if needed. If I am coming to your home for check-ins or walks, I try to make your pet feel comfortable and loved on in your absence.

“Christina was great. She was very flexible on pickup and drop off times which allowed me to go on a hike with my friends. My pup seemed very happy with him time there. Will definitely use Christina again!”

“We had a great experience with Aimee taking care of our senior husky for a day-care appointment. This was our first time using Rover so we weren't sure what to expect. Aimee met with me promptly for a meet and greet and we talked about any potential issues, since our old boy has some anxiety. Aimee was competent and confident that she could keep him comfortable for the day. Our family was just enjoying the area for the day but our activities didn't accommodate our dog. He had a great day with Aimee and her teenager. She kept me updated on how he was settling in and sent pictures all day! We are so happy that he got to have a good day while we were separated. When he started to have some separation anxiety near the end of the day, we communicated and she was able to do some training interventions with him and he calmed down. If we are ever in the area again, we'd gladly leave our pets in Aimee's care. She was also the most budget friendly sitter in her area and we appreciate that! You will be thrilled with the care Aimee gives your pets.”

“Christy was so welcoming and wonderful to my pup! She sent updates which was really nice to see my little guy enjoy his day! She’s great and already booking with her again. She’s amazing and you can trust her with your fur baby!”

About: I am 42 years old, married, and a stay-at-home-mom of two beautiful children: an 11 year old boy and a 15 year old girl. We currently have a border collie service dog, a catahoula leopard dog, a great pyrenees who is a service dog in training, and a border collie mix. We also have 3 cats, a ball python, and a hedgehog. We've also had horses, small animals of various types, and chickens in the past. As you can see, we are all in love with animals in this house, and, for me, animals are my passion. I have a BS in Animal Science/Equine Science, and over twenty years of experience in the animal care industry. I want my clients to feel like they are leaving their fur-babies in the best possible hands. Not only will your pets be cared for physically, but also emotionally. When carrying for your fur baby(s), I strive to keep your pet(s)' routines as close to normal as possible. Therefore, if your dog sleeps in a kennel, they will sleep in a kennel, if he sleeps in your bed, that's where (s)he'll sleep here. As for our fur babies: Our Catahoula, Finn, was a rescue off the streets when he was 4 months old. He's about 8 Years old now, and still a playful boy! He's big, and a complete love bug. Finn has never met an animal or person he didn't like. Evie is my service dog (allergy alert). She is a 5 year old border collie. She's very well mannered, especially in public, but can be sky with new people. She loves to play. She loves all other dogs, unless they are aggressive towards her. Because of her, it is IMPERATIVE that your dog is absolutely not dog aggressive at all. Bella is a small 1.5 year old border collie, husky, whatever else (lol) mix. She has energy for days, and is a huge lover. Lastly is my gentle giant Anakin. He is a 12 month old Great Pyrenees, about 90 lbs, and my service dog in training. He is the most laid back dog I've met. He loves to play with my friends' 6 lb min-pin, and it's absolutely adorable! He will NOT be coming to house sitting jobs with me. I'm a stay at home mom, however, both of my children currently attend school full time. Therefore, I will be able to devote most of my day to pet care. I always have your pet securely on a leash before opening the door when walking your dog. If letting your dog outside for a potty break in your yard, your dog will always be in my line if site (even if fully fenced).

“AJ was awesome from beginning to end. I needed a dog sitter for two days last minute & I even added a day last minute and he did not hesitate to say yes!! He sent updates, photos, & helpful tips daily! Our dachshunds enjoyed each other’s company as well. Thank you AJ!”

“Sophie came home super happy and sleepy. Janette and her little ones were incredibly gracious and welcoming. Don't hesitate to reach out if you're in need of care for your pup. Thanks Janette!”

“She was able to watch my pup super last minute and sent me pics. I love when sitters send photos even if it’s for the day! They were very kind and very responsive.”

Brittany R.

“Liz is absolutely amazing with Hammi! She was so kind and accommodating, even helping us out early in the morning. Hammi had a fantastic time under her care, meeting new friends and finding playmates. I’m so grateful for her kindness and flexibility, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her again with Hammi!”

“Roscoe came home tired and happy! Very pleased his stay went so well!”

“We had an unfortunate experience with another sitter and were super cautious using it again but Mariel absolutely exceeded our expectations. My dog is shy and takes awhile to warm up to people, however, my dog felt right at home with Mariel. She sent me pictures throughout the day (cause I'm needy and asked haha) And even brushed my dog for hours shedding a wig of hair off. I'm so glad we continued to use rover to find Mariel, I absolutely recommend her !”
