“Elizabeth took great care of our dog while we went away!! She sent us pictures and gave us updates making our vacation enjoyable knowing we left our 4 legged kid in great hands! Definitely would recommend her care for your family pets 🐶🐶”

About: I grew up always having a dog. I know how special they can be and the attention they deserve. I'm always happy to help pups get the best care possible. I have many free days to devote to pets. I am available on short notice and always happy to help out to make things easier on your animals. I have experience with dogs that roam the house as well as crate training. I also know how to handle an invisible fence versus a solid one as well as leads.

About: Hello! My name is Skylar; I am 26 years old, my family has owned dogs my whole life, I own a dog and two cats! I currently work at a daytrain facility for dogs and am on my way to eventually becoming a dog trainer! I am relatively flexible as I work around my jobs schedule but I always provide the upmost care for animals. As a dog lover, I’m here to ensure that your family members stay happy and safe while you’re away! I currently work part time at a daytrain facility for dogs, typically in the afternoons - So I am available mostly in the mornings and evenings ( after 6 pm)! I am able to provide walks if needed (or if there is no fenced in yard), as well as special diets and medications as needed!


“Evelyn was fantastic with my senior dog, and pup that can be lazy and have spurts of energy. Additionally, she was great with our cats, giving very detailed updates throughout the trip. I really appreciated the level of care, the attention to details, and the extra mile she went to ensure a smooth trip for not only her but myself. Incredibly grateful to have found her!”


“Keri was great! She was able to jump in at the last minute and stay at our house with our 2 dogs. She communicated regularly and sent lots of pictures of our pups. I think they liked her so much they didn't even realize we were gone!”


“Sally is amazing. She sent me pics and updates about my boys every day. She took care of my home leaving it cleaner than when we left. I enjoyed my vacation with complete peace of mind.”


About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs for 3 years in my own life, including elderly dogs with dementia so I know well the patience and love each and every animal needs and deserves! I’m working a part time job so I have ample time to care for your animals or take them for nice walks! I’d love to give as much time as possible to them! I’d make sure to follow their routines in their own home and will make sure they are as safe and happy as can possibly be!

About: I have been in the dog world for about 6 years now. I have experience in kennel work, grooming, protection training, and also breeding. I love my dogs just as family and would love to be that loving uncle for you pet when the busy schedule of life is happening. I currently working full time as a dog groomer but can always find the time to take care of you beloved pet family member. Im very flexible around my work schedule. For boarding I will stay at the client's home because its a little better for the dog to be in an environment that he/she knows.

About: My experience in pet care began during my childhood on my grandparents’ farm, where I was surrounded by a wide variety of animals every day. From an early age, I learned the importance of responsibility, compassion, and attentive care. I gained hands-on experience feeding, grooming, and nurturing animals of all kinds—including dogs, cats, livestock, and small animals—each with their own unique needs and personalities. More than just daily routines, I developed strong, loving bonds with the animals I cared for, treating them as family. That foundation shaped my deep understanding of animal behavior and my commitment to providing patient, personalized, and reliable care for every pet I work with. I bring a deep love and understanding of dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From playful pups to sweet seniors, I tailor each walk to fit their needs. I prioritize safety, communication, and fun—always engaging with your dog and even teaching basic cues like sit, stay, and wait during our adventures. I’m passionate about nature and I believe dogs thrive when they can safely explore their environment —sniffing the breeze, feeling the grass under their paws, and soaking up the world around them. I’m dependable, energetic, and treat every dog like my own. Whether it’s a gentle stroll or a playful outing, your pup will be in great hands and have a tail-wagging good time! Dog walking fits perfectly into my current routine. I’m a part-time healthcare worker with a consistent schedule, working from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. Outside of those hours, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability and plenty of time to dedicate to your pup. I truly enjoy incorporating walks into my day—they keep me active, bring me joy, and let me connect with more wonderful dogs. Your dog will receive dependable, loving care from someone who’s already made this a part of daily life. Safety, trust, and a positive environment are at the heart of every walk I take. I prioritize clean, open, and dog-friendly spaces—like the Rail-Trail, local parks, and secure walking paths—where pups can enjoy fresh air and nature safely. I always use leash control, stay highly observant of their behavior, and make sure every walk is calm, comfortable, and secure. Whether we’re exploring a quiet trail or playing at a safe dog park, your dog’s well-being is my top priority. You can trust that your pup is in caring, capable, and experienced hands every step of the way.

About: I've had 5 dogs in 25 years. My 7yr old rescue black lab mix Luna is my current forever pup. She's up for anything & everything. I have an open schedule since retirement. I am looking forward to spending more time outdoors and taking care of other dogs and their owners. Our back yard is fenced in. We have large dog crate if needed. There is a park nearby that we bring our dog to often. I can travel in my vehicle with dogs

“Gracelyn took great care of our pets! She even watered plants for us and stayed an extra night when our flights home were cancelled. The house was just as we left it when we got home. I definitely recommend her!”


“Jessie was absolutely amazing! She was quick to reply to us and made the whole process stress free! She was on time for our meet and greet and is the nicest! Our dogs absolutely loved her! She sent us some great photos of our dogs! We never had to worry, our dogs were in great hands! I highly recommend her for anyone who is looking for a great dog sitter!!”


About: I have always cared for, loved & owned dogs for as long as I can remember. I love to walk so why not combine two loves into one lovely hobby!

Whatever it takes I aim to please & pamper your PAWSOME pet! ❤️ 🐶😺 ❤️ I've always cared for, loved & owned cats as well. I would love to meet your special friend & build the fondest feline memories.

I'm looking forward to hearing from you soon to set up a meet & greet with you & your main squeeze 😍 My schedule is moderately flexible. I would love to become a full time Rover girl in the future. I love all animals. I believe they are vulnerable creatures and most rely on humans to care for & protect them. If you are without a vehicle or your work schedule is super rigid I can pick up or drop off your fur-ever-luv if needed. I would love to help out anyway that I can. I own two dog friendly cats & I will look after your pet as if she/he were my own. I will do everything I can to make it the safest, most comfortable and memorable experience for your special pet.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. I worked on a farm in 2023 and the rest of my experience is from dog sitting at clients homes, dog walking, house sitting, etc, as well as my own pets.

Anthony C.
“Tony has been a perfect friend to our baby nova. Walks, routinely grooms. Nail cuts are always a must for those hardwood floors. Time away is stressless when we know Tony is watching our girl.”


Christina D.
“I can’t say enough good things about our dog walker! My 14-year-old toy poodle can be a little particular (and a little slow these days), but Christina has been incredibly patient, gentle, and kind with her. She clearly understand how to care for senior dogs and treat her like their own—making sure she’s comfortable, gets her little strolls at her pace, and even sending me the occasional update or photo that always brightens my day. It’s such a relief to know she’s in good hands when she is not with me. She actually perks up when she hears Christina coming—that’s saying something for a dog who’s usually napping! If you're looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely caring, Christina is the one. I’m super grateful I found her.”
