About: I've been my friend groups dedicated dog sitter for years. I haven't met one I don't get along with eventually, and I love meeting new pups. I'm up early most mornings, and I work from home so it's usually easy for me to pop out during my lunch break or during work hours if I have some notice. Unfortunately I can't have pets in my home, so I usually care for my friends dogs in their homes, and they all have fenced in yards. There is one friend who lives in an apartment and I usually walk their pup in the local park when needed.

About: Hello! My name is Nicole and I am an upbeat and energetic musician. I have grown up with dogs my whole life and absolutely love taking care of them! I also have 4 years of pet and house-sitting experience. I love dogs of all sizes -and cats- but have more experience with small dogs. While you’re away, I will let them out, as well as feed and clean up after them. I can take your babies on walks, outside to play, and give them all the love they could possibly want! I am a recent college graduate looking to take my pet sitting from part-time to full-time! I currently am available 7 days per week. Dates marked as unavailable on the calendar have been booked for overnight stays by private clients, but if you’re nearby I’d be happy to do drop-ins and walks. After letting the pets get accustomed to my being in their home, I’ll try to get a sense of how much attention they want and respond accordingly.

“Janet has been an excellent dog walker for Brisco! I highly recommend her services!”

About: Hi there! I’m Net. 🙂 I’m the go-to gal of my friends and family for watching their four-legged kid - and I love that reputation. I’m here to help ease those worries of last-minute changes to your everyday itinerary or lessen stress when being cross-country on travel - I get that because being there has done the same! And what is more of a bonus for me to make another pal? Seems like a win-win situation if you ask me. For as long as I can remember, I have always been fascinated and compassionate when it comes to animals. They have always been one of my favorite things in this world. Growing up with birds, rabbits, cats, dogs, you name it - really helped that love grow and helped me to also learn how to be responsible, coordinate time management and even how to properly take care of them along the way at a young age. Fast-forward - I took the next step to wanting to know and learn more about them. So I signed myself up back in 2017 and took an online course to more knowledge and become a vet assistant where I later on finished my hours at a local vet hospital. I was taught valuable skills, such as patience in the field, restraint techniques, administering medication and the importance of detail, etc. I even have some background in doggy daycare! What can I say? I can’t get enough of these little guys. Learning everything from grooming and bathing techniques, to animal behavior of personalities and the ability to understand each animal’s needs and anxieties. Don’t forget the play! I’ll even put on a good jam for us too and break out in a dance party. Putting more experience under my belt in something that fills my soul and cup. I always say when you enjoy something you love it first, and it’s a job second. Hopefully, I’ll have the opportunity and chance to meet your dog, too! 🐶🤍 I’m currently working early in the morning, so I have a lot of downtime to take care of and hang out with your little one(s). Monday through Saturday, I’m free after 12:30pm and all day Sundays. Occasionally, I could have an extra day off during the middle of the week. Just shoot me a message! I will be more than happy to accommodate what I can. I have a whole pack at home myself. Did I mention that? Yup! Five in total to be exact. Ranging from all different breeds, the oldest is almost 13 and the youngest just turned 1. So keeping them occupied is definitely something we have adjusted and accommodated to. We have a whole fenced-in yard, a toy box that can't fit much left, walks are a very essential part of our daily life and activity, and we tend to rotate our pack in groups from going to breweries/wineries, to hikes and even events such as dog parks, farmers market and whatever else events tend to be happening at the time. If this is something you're interested in acclimating and a small dose over time, happy to bring them along with! Of course, the occasional cupcakes and cookies I make for my kids at home. Let me know if they have any allergies and I will be happy to bring a small bag over when I stop by! 🙂

“Larry is amazing !!! Took care of my dog just like I would. Took really good care of my boy and I’m very grateful because I’m a worried dog dad. Larry thank you so much for caring for my Dog. Best wishes 🫶🏽”

“Evelyn is a wonderful and responsible walker and sitter and takes great care of my dog Freckles. She always spends a full 30 minutes with her (and often longer) and makes sure she has lots of love and attention while I’m away at work. When it’s very hot she pays special attention to Freckles’ comfort and will take her back inside to cool off if she needs it, but still makes sure the visit is the full length of time. I always receive detailed follow-up and adorable photos when the walk is done. Evelyn has had to deal with a couple accidents and has been gracious in cleaning them up before putting Freckles back in her crate. I (and Freckles) highly recommend Evelyn!”

About: My name is Loren and I grew up taking care of dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. I have been working through Rover for 8 years since moving to the Capital region. I will stay over at your home, drop in visits, walks, trips to dog park, whatever you would like me to do! I am a very passionate, dedicated, trustworthy, and a responsible animal lover. I am a social worker by profession and love helping people and animals. I have volunteered helping animals at the shelter in the past. I believe in treating animals with kindness and love. I will be your best choice for a pet sitter and you can count on me to do the job and give your pet tons of love and snuggles. I currently work full time mon- fri. I can accommodate occasional before work visits or after work visits. I am most available on weekends. If I have advanced notice, I will be willing to take a day off to accommodate if possible. I treat them with the respect, kindness, and love they deserve. I follow the directions of what the pet owner asks of me. My cats are spoiled rotten and I will spoil your pets too if that is what you want.

“Marybeth is a great dog Walker and did well by my pet. Very trustworthy and made sure I was stress free while on vacation.”

About: I love all types of animals and I like going outside and playing fetch and playing other games with them. It’s so much fun. I love how excited they get when you play with their toys with them. I love dogs all the way from the puppy stage to older dogs. I have no breed limitations. The only thing I ask is that the dog is friendly of course. I can administer medications to any animal and I can follow a daily schedule of feeding and walks if needed. I also clean the houses I stay at as well so when you come home you will arrive to a cleaner house then when you left and a happy pets also! Can’t wait to meet them! I doordash daily so I am always out and about and willing to help any time I can! I work Monday-Friday every week so reach out! I have been doing this for years now and I have two pets of my own! I treat every animal like my own and make sure they are properly loved and taken care of

“I was able to book with Linda under some tight time constraints, she was super flexible and made time for a quick meet and greet before booking. She has a very calm energy and did great with my beagle who was a little stressed after a long move from CA. Loved the pictures and updates she sent, highly recommend for anyone in the area :)”

About: I’ve been the primary caretaker of my family’s dogs, and have used Rover for close to 5 years now to expand my network of dog friends! I just graduated from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and don’t currently have a job lined up. That means my schedule is completely open to take care of your pets! I can certainly crate your dogs if needed, but I would prefer to have the company of your pets and give them my love and attention :)

About: I'm passionate about studying animal behavior and emotion to make sure I'm building strong connections with pups I work with, I also have customer service experience, so I value both the human-animal connection and working with people to build strong trust, relationships, and provide value and clear communication in all stages of the process. I will also be obtaining dog-training certifications, as well as develop competency in medical training, and raising animals from birth to continue to develop my abilities and relationships with our furry friends that call us home! I'm currently working on a freelance basis, and value having a efficient blocked out schedule to always make sure that i'm prioritizing my time and being responsible with time-management I believe that as a caregiver, taking care of others pets as if they were my own, as well as a mirror of how you care for them. I believe in treating all animals, and animals I would be responsible for taking care of, with the utmost care and kindness because they deserve that as a bare minimum! I recognize that each animal is authentically unique, has their own quirks and sensitivities that need to be acknowledged in order to best take care of them. As a dog owner who has grown up with, taken care of rescues and purebreds, and raised rescues my whole life, I have seen the full spectrum of dog personalities and recognize that they all need to be treated with utmost respect and kindness, and treated differently based on what works best for their personalities, as well as their owners preference. Ultimately, I would treat any animal the way that I would treat my own furbabies, and however you would want your animal to be treated! I don't believe in using cellphones or devices around them unless it is calling for an emergency, and my full attention will be on taking care of them at all times.

About: I've been pet sitting for many years and now will be expanding onto Rover. I know our pets do so much for us and should be treated as family I'm dedicated to taking care of each customer with respect and professionalism, with or without 4 legs. I know you will feel at ease when away from your pet I'm dedicated to taking care of each customer with respect and professionalism, with or without 4 legs. I know you will feel at ease when away from your pet

“Very thorough when taking my pup out and she follows all instructions to a T!! Will be booking regularly.”

About: Need a little extra interaction for your fur baby? I'm happy to help out. I have been dog walking and house sitting for friends and family over the last 10 year. I'm great for a morning or midday walk or even just an extra potty break til you can get home. I have had 15 pets in my life and all live to a ripe old age in a loving home. I dont currently have pets due to lease restrictions. But Im happy to spend my free time with your fur baby. I'm available all day Sunday and Monday, Tuesday-Friday 7am-3pm. Saturday can be negotiable. If you are wanting over night care I am available starting at 11pm. I'm the type of person to double check locks behind me. Im happy to even help with some medication, depensing on the need. The only real restriction for me is no fur babies that have to be muzzled.

About: I have loved animals all my life and your pet will have a great and safe time with me. I will make sure they are well cared for and that they get out a lot during the day. I am usually home all the time but if for some reason I have to leave they will be safe in one room. I have a 15 year old son who also loves animals and really wants a dog and this will also be an excellent opportunity for him to really learn what it is like taking care of a dog. your pet will be in great hands. So give us a call and we will treat your pet like the family member I know every pet owner wants

“Very friendly and polity and my animals love her. And always communicates with me on the status of them.”

About: I have been surrounded by dogs ever since I was born and have cared for all dog breeds in the past. I truly love the companionship I've built with my animals and would give the same to yours. I am able to care for your dogs in the early mornings and late afternoon to late evenings, I guarantee walking them frequently as it is a part of my daily routine. I love being outside as well and am very active so I’m great with high energy pets! Often I take my mom's dogs outside a few times a day. First thing in the morning is the best time to feed and walk them so they get some sunshine. Mid-day I let them go out for lunch in a fenced-in backyard, and feed them dinner by the evening. I will also take them for walks before sundown and ensure they are comfortable before bed. I have watched many of neighbors pets and boarded animals in the past.
