About: Hi! I’m Kelly, a lifelong animal lover, professional treat-giver, and former dog mom to my sweet girl, Princess, for 13.5 amazing years. From daily walks to medication routines, I’ve handled it all with love and care. Whether your fur baby needs a snuggle buddy, a midday walk, or someone to keep an eye on them while you’re away, I’ve got you covered! I live in a pet-friendly community with plenty of green space and have my own vehicle, so I’m reliable and flexible when it comes to pick-ups, drop-offs, or emergency needs. I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet, and I treat every animal like my own. Let’s connect! I’d love to meet your pup and become their new favorite human! Pet care fits into my routine pretty seamlessly. Honestly, hanging out with animals is one of the best parts of my week! I have a flexible schedule, my own car, and I live in a pet-friendly community with lots of green space, so walks and visits are easy to work into my day. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, a walk around the block, or a weekend stay, I make the time because I truly love being around animals. After 13.5 years with my own dog, it just feels natural to keep giving that kind of love and care to other pets. I live in a pet-friendly community with lots of green space, so walks and visits are easy to work into my day. I'm also more than happy to pet sit in your own home if that's what you prefer.
“I felt at ease having Caleigh walk our brand new baby, Leo. She was communicative and right on time which was important for us with an 8wk old puppy. Will be using again. Thank you!”
About: Dear Dog Parent, When in my care, your dog will be loved and pampered. I am a teacher as my main profession; I am extremely reliable, dedicated and conscious of safety.

I have two adopted dogs who are very friendly and welcoming. We are often seen on long walks or at the dog beach. For some extra playtime or a quick potty break, we also have a fenced-in yard. Lots of cuddles for your beloved canine are included, if that is what they enjoy. For any further information, please contact me. All the best, Cynthia Promocode: https://www.rover.com/sit/cynthn59842 I take care of dogs during weekends and school breaks, which is around three months per calendar year.

Your dog will get plenty of exercise and social interaction if that is what they enjoy. Some light training can be included when requested.

About: Hi! I’m Calista, and I am a huge animal lover. I grew up in a household where there were always dogs and cats around me. As the dogs, cats (even turtles!) and I grew up, my ability to take care of them improved as they got older and stronger. I am also able to maintain consistent schedules to ensure that your pet remains happy and loved while you are away, for I currently have two cats of my own. During house sittings, I’d take the time to know your pet and make them feel comfortable and safe. Beginning July 5th and onward, I will have full availability in the summer and the fall! Additionally, in my spare time, I enjoy hanging around with my pets as well as yours! For the summer, I currently have a wide availability and will have ample time to look after and take care of all your fur babies! :) I have a designated pet food cabinet, spare pet toys, and have local vets/Pet Urgent Cares located in a close radius to my home in case of any emergencies. However, for your furry friend’s convenience, I offer petsitting right in the comfort of your home!
About: Hi! My name is Donna, and have loved and cared for dogs ever since I was a kid. I'm comfortable with all dogs, no matter the size or age. From dogs as small as Yorkies, to as big as German Shepherds and Pitbulls. I'm also comfortable and willing to take care of puppies from as young as 8 weeks to above. I used to work at an animal shelter, and was trained basic dog behavior and enrichments that can help stimulate your dog. During my spare time I will volunteer at animal shelters just to help dogs with getting their exercise for the day. Nothing is better than being able to spend time with a dog! I can't wait to meet your best friend :) *I also pet sit cats as well!! if your feline friend needs to be taken care of, I would be more than happy to do so!!* I work remotely and have the availability to drop in on your furry friend when need be, or taking them out for a stimulating walk. I will always make sure that your dog is at their utmost safest when in my care. By making sure their leash/harness/collar is placed well, to always keeping an eye out environmentally wise so their walks are always safe.

She is extremely patient and tolerant with my little trouble maker who respects and adores Kelly.

Cynthia N.
“My family first met Cynthia when we were seeking a language tutor for our children, and for many years, she was a weekly guest in our home. Her love for animals has been apparent since she first arrived at our home, which included two dogs (German Shepherd mix and a corgi/blue healer mix) and three felines. While most visitors new to our home either step back in fright or ask that we put the dogs in another room, Cynthia knelt and hugged our pups, and it was obvious from that first day that our pups returned her affection and trust. Her arrival became a very happy weekly event for our dogs, and it was obvious how much trust they put in her -- even allowing and enjoying visits from Cynthia's own rescue. Our dogs are not misbehaved, but they are also not easy, and they often get out of sorts when non-family members come to our home. We saw the exact opposite dynamic with Cynthia -- even our mischievous "cowboy corgi" has always remained calm and affectionate in her presence, which says a great deal! Cynthia is a deeply caring, thoughtful and kind human who connects naturally with animals. I could not recommend her more highly!”
