“Valerie is the best! My puppy loved her. She’s very experienced, caring and responsible. Lucy is training to be a therapy dog and Valerie did an excellent job using the specific commands Lucy is being taught. Also, Lucy is a challenge at five months and 50 pounds. Valerie had no problem, controlling her in a loving way.”

About: I’ve always had great experiences of taking care of pets since childhood. From taking care of my own, pet sitting for friends while they’re out of town as well as working at a doggy daycare for a year. I have experience with both cats & dogs of various sizes and ages. I’m employed full time and unable to accept request Tuesday-Thursday. My availability is Friday-Monday for house sitting and Saturday & Sunday for dog walking and check ins. I cannot board pets at my home since I share my living space at this time, however, I’m opening to visit/stay at the client’s home if needed.

About: I have taken care of pets for the past 13 years. Including feeding, walking, bathing them and cleaning their rooms of any poop or vomit. I know the critical and non critical signs of stress and have plenty of experience with administrating medications as needed. I’ve taken care of pets that have seizures as well. I’ve taken care of all type of pets from hamsters and birds to dogs and cats. I do work with boarding as well so I will always have time to look after and care for your pets. My schedule is flexible and this fits right into my career field that I am currently doing. I have a fence around my background which allows for free roaming. I also have two extra rooms that are free that I can use for boarding if need be as well. I have no problem sending pictures and keeping pet parents updated and informed of the care of their pets while in my care. I also allow video calls for pet parents that would like to ensure the safety of their pets.

About: I possess extensive training that equips me to handle various situations, including managing aggressive behavior in animals. My experience ensures that I can navigate challenges effectively and provide a safe environment for both pets and their owners. Additionally, my knowledge extends to administering medication, allowing me to cater to pets with specific health needs. I love taking funny pictures of them too lol I’m currently the owner of the sweetest kitten, so it is already a part of my daily routine to care for and love my furry friend. I am very gentle, loving, patient, cautious and kind. I can carefully but easily follow specific instructions for special medical procedures if that’s ever needed.

About: I've raised dogs as small and stubborn as Shitzu's and as big and smart as German Shepherds. I love dogs and will treat your fur baby better than many. I work for myself most of the time so when you need me I can be there except if I have a prior engagement or client. I have a fenced in yard if dogs are with me at my home and if at yours I'll be extra careful to care for your fur baby.

About: I’ve have taken care of dogs for over 20 years. I specialize in the care of small dogs and those with special needs. I have an elderly, blind, partially deaf Boston terrier of my own so I am well acquainted with caring for dogs. I work from home quarter-time and have a lot flexibility. I am present and available to meet your dogs needs. The longest they would have to wait to go outside is two hours. I have a fully fenced in backyard and a walkable neighborhood! I have one small elderly dog that sleeps all day and keeps to herself. I have elementary age kids that are helpful and also love dogs.

About: I've taken care of dogs for over 30 years and never imagined a site that I could join so that my mini poodle could have play dates. I'm retired and I love dogs so I thought dog sitting would be a good way for my mini poodle to meet new furry friends. I have one mini poodle named King that loves other pets. King doesn't use a cage, because he thinks hes human but I have no problem cage training other dogs. Otherwise, your pet will learn how to sit and engage with others without jumping on others and biting anyone.

“Hi highly recommend Greg! I was fortunate enough to not only book him last minute so my pup could get in a walk, but also able to do so on New Years Eve. My pup was obviously quite fond of him because he didn't want to stop playing with Greg once he brought him back home from the walk, and he continued to bring over one toy after the next to show him. I look forward to booking him again in the near future.”

About: I have always been a dog and animal lover. I used to watch my neighbors’ dogs when they would go on vacation. I always had my own dog growing up- first a yellow lab mix and then an adorable little beagle. I have my own dog who is 9, Frankie, & I love to care for her. I have many years of experience volunteering at animal shelters and socializing dogs. When I lived in Seattle, I cared for a friend’s dog when she would be out of town on the weekends for work. I am available this summer to help care for your dogs because I’ll be studying for the bar (!) every day, so help give me a break from studying. 🤪 My sweet girl is pretty low energy and loves to hang out in the back yard, so she is pretty low maintenance, but of course I love to just hang out with her and care for her. I’m excited to hear back and have the opportunity to interact with some great dogs! I have experience caring for puppies, high-energy dogs, low-energy dogs, on-leash reactive dogs, senior dogs, and many breeds and sizes. If this is your first booking on Rover, feel free to use my code for $20 off: https://www.rover.com/sit/cassiw30987 I am available most days all day because I’ll just be studying all day this summer. I am available on the weekends and short notice as well! I will update my availability for when I’m not free though. I will respect what you want me to do based on what your dog knows. Essentially I will follow the routine for however you prefer the walk or drop in visit to go!

About: Hi there! My name is Grace. I was a dog owner for a long time, and now I'm hoping to meet some new dogs and help you out in the process. I love to jog, and would be happy to take your dog for a run. I love to play fetch or whatever your dog's favorite game is. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I'm trained as a paramedic, so I'm responsible and cool-headed during emergencies. I love all dogs, but rescues and those scrappy-looking mutts hold a special place in my heart.

I am available on short notice. I love to stay active, so I love going for walks or playing with animals. I live right across from a park with tons of space to run and play.

About: I've taken care of and lived with a multitude of pets since 2015. Every year up until this year, I've lived with a dog and/or cat. I love animals, (my favorite is llamas) and would start a farm if I wasn't raised in the city My schedule is constantly changing, but currently I am walking pets throughout the day, or babysitting during the days. I am open to change routines if needed For sitting pets in my home, I have an apartment, which means your animal would be leashed anytime not in my home. If we are in their environment, I listen to their cues of safety and trust and of course whatever the owners are comfortable with. Also, if your pet is under my care, I can be reached anytime :)

About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life. I love my pets and I’m always into making sure they’re okay. My family usually calls me to watch the babies, feed and bathe them from time to time. I work part time and go to school online but i can also take breaks where i can come take care of pets. I’m more available during the afternoon but I’m free during the day as well.

“Samantha is amazing, she never failed to send pictures and get plenty of exercise with my insanely hyper dog, he just loved her. In February of this year I got into a horrible accident and didn’t wake up for two days, I lived alone and my dog didn’t have anyone, I woke up in the ICU and Samantha was the first one I got a hold of knowing she had a key. She showed and saved my dogs life, my keys were lost in the accident and I had no way to get home. She safely got the key to my family and Obsidian is safe and healthy with me traveling across the United States and happier then ever. I couldn’t thank her enough for being that reliable. I don’t know what I would ever do without my boy.”

About: I have 4 cats and 2 dogs of my own who are very socialized! I’m great at training fur babies if they need any and I have lots of energy to keep up with them as well! My partner and I recently bought our home in Detroit that has a good size yard for play space for your dogs! I also do date night sitting in the surrounding areas so I have no problem driving out to give your fur babies a potty break and some love when you’re out at work. I have been doing house sitting along with pet sitting for some time now so I have great references if needed! I am married, no children yet and as I mentioned have 2 dogs and 4 kitties! They’re all very friendly and welcoming to others. I work from home so I have time to give love and as many potty breaks as they need while they are here! I treat all dogs like my own. I have a fenced yard and will do lots of supervised play time in it! My dogs love to play with other dogs as well, all supervised of course!
