About: Hi, I grew up in a home that had dogs and have also worked with rescues over the years. I am able to help potty train, teach tricks, work on leash and friendly play for puppies. I have toys treats and a fenced yard. If you need a safe place to keep your pup during work or over vacation we might be the right fit for you. We have a small pomsky and a old chihuahua/yorkie mix who are the friendliest dogs in the entire world and great with other dogs. If your dog needs to be the only dog our home might not be ideal. I want us both to have the best experience possible. Meet and greets are amazing and welcome to make sure your fur baby and ours will be a great fit. I am also a wildlife rehabitator at Lost Child Wildlife Rehabilitation on facebook. I am working hard to help the voiceless orphaned wildlife. My life gets a little crazy during wildlife season but that does not stop me from being able to care for your furry family members. Wildlife and animals in general are my passion and always have been. I am also enrolled in Unity College online to further my education and the help I can provide to our wildlife. I am currently a stay at home mom and have all the free time to spend with your fur baby while their family is away. We wake up at 730-8am everyday and have a great routine that any fur baby will fit right into. We could do holidays, weekends overnights and everything in between. I have a fenced in yard, dog friendly dogs and tons of toys for playtime. We have donut bed, blankets, crates if they are needed and enjoy going on walks with the addition of play time in the yard or inside if it's raining. I have toys for multiple chewing needs - super chewers or tiny nibbles. I have lots of free time and just want to help where I can.

“This was my 3rd time booking with Victoria and I will continue to rebook with her! She takes very good care of my cats and I know they are happy with her. I never have to worry about them when I leave. :)”

About: I have taken care of my own yorkies for 17 years and also had friends ask me to babysit their babies and of course my babies relied on me for fresh water, meals, grooming, nail cutting and much more. Outside-never alone, walks, play and especially brushing and petting on my lap. Lots of love I'm retired and home all day, with exceptions of Doc visits. When I am not home Hope stays at the house with any babies that I have in the home. I will be taking the babies out and be with them the entire time they are outside. I will play with them and have them sit in my lap if they choose to. Or anything else the owner would suggest. The babies are allowed on my furniture and to sleep in bed with me if they choose to.

This includes both senior and younger dogs.

I will shower your dog with love and cuddles and hopefully give you peace of mind. I work remotely and this is a great way for me to do something that sparks joy in my life, while being able to provide undivided attention to your beloved pet. Each dog that stays with me is treated with an endless supply of love and care to help them feel less anxious while being apart from their family. I have a fenced in yard, and prioritize walks/play or going to the park nearby. If your dog prefers to sleep in a crate, floor, bed, I will make sure they feel comfortable and loved while they are with me.

About: I lived with a husky and a daschound for a couple of years recently with family and it was a lot of fun and great experience. I had small dogs growing up and I love large dogs too.

I would love to help routinely (weekly or otherwise) with anyone that leaves their pets home alone a little bit more than they would prefer ideally! I have a larger space with an extra room, so I can temporarily take in at least two animals at my place if need be.

About: I’ve been looking after pets since I was around 10, and have a few of my own! I absolutely adore animals, so walking, grooming, and sitting doesn’t even feel like work! I’ve had experience taking care of rabbits, guinea pigs, fish, cats, and dogs. I am currently attending university, so I will be available to work late April through late August. I plan to work part time in addition to Rover, so I will have some time and flexibility! I have a fenced, medium-sized backyard that is animal-safe. My house is two stories, and also animal-safe. I have one friendly small dog, one friendly medium-sized dog, and one friendly cat!

“Marissa was terrific and a great fit for my old lab while i was vacationing. Whether or not my dog was being well taken care of was one thing i didn't have to worry about.”


“This was the first time a sitter came to my home, as I usually board. I immediately felt Helena was a competent and trustworthy person - and I was right. She clearly loves animals, is reliable & responsible. I neglected to make Poose's toys available & she took it upon herself to buy some! You will certainly feel comfortable knowing your pet is in good hands.”


“Brandi did a great job looking after Aspen. Came on time to every visit and made sure Aspen was well looked after with playing frisbee and taking her on walks. She was very good at communicating with what they did each visit. Highly recommend. Thank you!”

Nichole has been around animals most of her life and over the past few years she has gotten involved with the animal rescue and rehab community. She has helped find homes for domestic animals that were discarded by their owners or orphaned when their mothers were killed. She also works to rehab wild baby animals so they can be released back into the wild. You won't find anyone that loves animals as much as Nichole does. R. Federick”
