“Keerie is a great dog walker for our Mabel. Mabel loves her weekly long walks and snuggles and I love Keerie’s responsiveness, timeliness and communication. Keerie is a true animal lover who I highly recommend.”
About: I’ve taken care of 2 cats with different personalities, fed them, watered them and changed their litter boxes. Played ball and cuddled with them while others don’t like cuddling.! I’m currently retired and need a supplemental income. I love pets of all kinds and was raised on a farm. I am very active, trustworthy I’m not allowed to have pets in my condo association rules. I feel a pet is more comfortable in his or her surroundings! Cats are finicky! But so loving fun to play with lazer lights or feathers.
“Very dependable and the dogs love her.”
About: Mom to two energetic pups.🐶 Roy (english setter) & Banks (black lab) keep my life exciting! We enjoy swimming, running, & a good ole cuddle on the couch. As someone whose job requires traveling, I understand the stress it can be to have someone else watch your pups. I’m here to hopefully make your life easier & remove extra anxiety that pups can cause when you’re traveling without them 💓 I am currently a Division 1 coach whose competition season is in the fall, so I only have Mondays off, but my spring season allows me to have an easier schedule with weekends free! I have two friendly, active pups who love to make new friends! I live within 5 miles of 3 different parks that I love taking my pups to!
“Megan was wonderful with our labs! They looked forward to seeing her while we were away. She gave them sone type of normal routine, and it set our minds at ease about being away. Thank you, Megan!!!”
About: I'm a loving and honest artist, musician and writer who recently relocated from Portland, Oregon. I am known to befriend anxious and shy dogs, and to help them enjoy that bittersweet time away from their families. From cat meds to fish ponds, to pups young and old, you can count on me. Always happy to send pictures, videos, and fulfill special requests! Good vibes only 😉 Currently I am working from home, so my schedule is nice and flexible. I accept clients on a "first come, first served" basis and adapt to pets' regular routines. I have a great deal of experience with extended petsits, staying in and maintaining the homes of repeat clients (on and off Rover). Also available to stop by for short visits!
“Rebecca has walked and stayed overnight with my Shiloh. She has been great and is very flexible.”
About: Animals have always been part of my life—from Dalmatians and a Great Dane to a sassy pet chicken. I’ve cared for cats, dogs, and even had lovebirds at one point! I truly enjoy connecting with each pet’s unique personality. Working from home with a flexible schedule means I have lots of time to give your pets the care and attention they need, whenever you need help. Think of my home as your pet's fun, safe hangout! Working from home means endless cuddles and playtime, with trust and their well-being always my top priority.
“We were very pleased with Augusta. She took good care of Maisie while we were gone. We look forward to having her take care of our dog again the next time we travel.”
About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals, especially dogs. I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and temperaments — including walking, feeding, giving medications, and providing loving companionship. I’ve helped care for both puppies and senior dogs, so I understand the patience and attention they each need. What Sets Me Apart What sets me apart is the calm, attentive energy I bring to every dog I care for. I treat each pet like a member of the family, taking the time to understand their unique needs and personality. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and comfortable following specific routines or care instructions. If your dog needs extra time, snuggles, or someone who can read their mood and body language, I’m your person. I’m also experienced with basic training reinforcement and keeping pets stimulated during walks or visits. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care in consistently throughout the week. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits or walks, depending on your dog’s needs. I enjoy being active and outside, so daily walks fit naturally into my routine. I also prioritize reliability — if we set a time, I’ll be there. Pet care isn’t just a side gig for me; it’s something I truly enjoy and make space for in my day. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s home, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, triggers, and preferences to make sure they feel secure and comfortable. I always follow instructions closely, keep a clean and pet-friendly environment, and never leave pets unattended during walks or outdoor time. If I’m in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I’d expect in mine — locking doors, keeping things tidy, and communicating clearly about how things are going. I also stay alert to changes in behavior or health and will notify you right away if anything seems off. Building trust with both the pet and the owner is important to me, and I’m committed to providing reliable, thoughtful care every time.
