“I will highly recommend Mindy to walk your dog. Mindy communicated with great detail and pictures which put us at ease. I will definitely use Mindy again when we are back in this area.”
“Wonderful to have a dog lover come in and walk my dogs when I’m away! She was always there when she said she would be and took them for good long walks! Will definitely use again!”
“Monet is fantastic. My kiddos loved her from the moment she walked in the door. She is calm, patient and attentive and made sure they stayed on their routine. Will definitely have Monet watch my kiddos again.”
“Nathan is phenomenal with Billy!! He not only takes him for walks but he helps him learn tricks and shows Billy all the attention he so craves. He is a puppy so patience is necessary and Nathan definitely has that. Nathan is great with communication as well, always letting me know how Billy is doing and if he sees that maybe something is off with Billy health wise. I definitely trust him to take great care of my pup. :)”
About: Animals have been a large part of my life since I was a young child. I had to let my dog go due to cancer some years back and cannot afford one of my own any longer. It would be an honor to spend time with your family member. I've been disabled for 17 years and I'd relish the opportunity to give your family member the attention they need when you're busy schedule requires time away. I will go above and beyond to keep your family member happy and comfortable and of course entertained. As a former pet owner I understand your concern with leaving them in others hands. Your four-legged family will be treated as my own.
“Tina is fantastic. She was totally reliable and so sweet to my pups! She walked them 3 times a week and was never late or unavailable! Thanks Tina-”
About: Hello! I'm a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for puppies, dogs, cats, and even horses. Whether it’s going for long walks, giving belly rubs, or just spending quality time, I truly enjoy connecting with animals of all kinds. I understand the unique needs of each pet and treat them like family—because that’s how I’d want mine cared for. From energetic pups to mellow cats, I’m here to give them all the love, attention, and care they deserve! I am currently a Nursing student with a busy schedule, but make sure to provide the love and care your pets need! I am very flexible and would love to make a schedule that works for both of us. I care for your pets the same way I'd care for mine; lots of love, belly rubs, and only the best service. Providing a safe and trusting relationship between owner and myself.
About: Not sure where to start! I have taken care of animals of all shapes and sizes! I have a cat named Lexi. I have owned/cared for large breeds, all breed, cats, horses, goats, the works. I am extremely loving and passionate for taking care of humans and animals. I'm not a certified trainer but I have trained my previous dogs in clicker training, behavioral training, and harness training. I'm not afraid of any animals what so ever. Sunday, Monday, Wednesday I take care of beautiful humans. I thoroughly love my job but also have a deep love for animals also. When I'm not at work, I generally have my 2 year old but my husband helps! I absolutely adore animals of all shapes and sizes (with the exception of spiders and snakes). I am one of the most loving people you will ever meet. I will 100% ensure they are fed, pottied, and loved for before I "leave them". They might get left with extra lovings or maybe a surprise over night if needed. I love hiking. My apartment is equipped with dog care essentials. Even if it's too hot, I'm always okay with playing in the water and having a "weighted blanket" for extra cuddles.
“Eliana is so nice and was great with my dogs. She came over each day to walk 2 large dogs.”
About: I have house sat multiple times for the same families, which included care for both dogs and cats. One family had ill animals that needed special pills and diets, while the other had a puppy who needed walks to remain calm. I follow the instructions of the owners as best I can, and attempt to give the animals as much love and attention as I can offer. I was paid professionally to care for animals when I worked as a personal assistant for three years. I know that it can be hard work to care for animals, but I am willing to put forth the effort for them. I have had and cared for them all of my life, and I look forward to caring for yours! I work full time, but can be flexible with my lunch break. At the least, I could drop in three times a day or stay with them in the evenings. On weekends, if I am petsitting or dropping in, your pup or cat would be my highest priority and my schedule is much more flexible. Petsitting: When staying at a client's home, I keep the area tidy and try to spend more time with the pet than not. When I am not at work, I would be able to walk, play, and cuddle to their heart's content. If I have social plans, I adjust them to the pets needs so they are not left alone for too long. Dogwalking & Drop-Ins: After walking/playing with/checking on your pup, I would ensure they have adequate water and a treat, then give them some time to rest. Once I've ensured they've cooled down, I would let them out once more before topping off their water and leaving them for a nap. During the work weeks, walks would be at noon and after 5pm, but weekends are flexible.
“Highly recommend. Very good with animals and people. She walked my dog in my neighborhood and I received great feedback from my neighbors.”
“Matilyn did a great job walking our dogs! She also let me that our female dog was showing signs of a UTI. Took her to the Vet the next day and sure enough, our dog did have a UTI! We would definitely rebook Matilyn!”
About: I have been a pet-owner since I was ten years old. I used to do campground pet care from age 10-13. I am pretty great at bonding with animals, getting to be their friend, and helping them get the exercise and attention they need! I love animals that come in all shapes and sizes and I am confident that I will be a great companion for your pet in any way that they need. I love to spend time in the park with my own pets, letting them splash in the creek, playing fetch, running with them, and showing them some good old-fashioned love. Our pets are too often overlooked and Rover is a great opportunity to for your pet to get some love too! I’m currently pursuing my online degree in Recreational Tourism Management and using River as an opportunity to make money on the side! My schedule is virtually open! I have 2 cats of my own, and a family dog—a doberman—so boarding in my own home isn’t terribly ideal for me. I am however very flexible with coming to clients’ homes and giving their pets all the attention they need!
“Tara was super helpful and amazing! Kept me updating on my pup and went above and beyond to give him attention!”
About: I have lived in households with pets my entire life as well as taken care of countless peoples animals while they have been busy or out of town. I go to the dog park just about every day and am well versed in how animals interact with each other and how to make them as comfortable as possible. I am back in the Black Hills until September when school starts up again for me! I am very free and would love to watch some pets of all kinds. I have my own dog and I can have them hang out or she can stay at home just as easily!! I care for all pets in my home and in others the same way, with love and respect. It’s incredibly important for the animals you are dealing with to trust you and I work to ensure that trust at all times.
“Tracy was a great communicator and you could tell she has dog experience. She took our girl for a quick walk and potty and fed her while we were at a wedding.”
About: I grew up with dogs and I currently have a black lab who lives with my husband. I’ve dog sat for friends and family throughout my life. I love to run, walk and be outside in nature. Dogs are definitely considered family to me! I am a travel nurse from South Dakota but currently live in Des Moines. I work night shift so during the day I’m around. My days are generally grouped together but letting pets out or walking are both doable! I can do overnights and watch for periods of time it will just depend on my schedule. I always want to respect the animal and let them come to me to meet and get to know me first. I love to play fetch or with whatever toys they like.
About: Hi! I grew up on the beaches of Florida and spent some summers at my grandparents' farm where I learned to care for different animals including animals with special needs. I have been caring for all sorts of animals, from dogs, cats, birds, bunnies down to gold fish, for family, friends and neighbors since I was eight years old on and off throughout my life. I have volunteered as a rescue parent and even became a foster fail parent twice. With my personal experience on the farm, rescuing and fostering dogs and cats, I am qualified to care for your pet(s) and provide for their needs (including special medical needs, such as administering medication, if necessary). I am open to caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, even fish tanks while you are gone. I’m an easy-going, person who stays pretty active when I am not pet-sitting. Sometimes I enjoy staying home relaxing with a book and a nice cup of coffee or tea. I currently have two fur kiddos of my own. My Mini Schnauzer Shih-Tzu mix, Luna, and Yorkie Chihuahua mix, Baby Girl, are very chill & friendly in the house, outside, and they love to go for long walks or a short run. I am very responsible, flexible, and always respond quickly to any questions. I look forward to hearing from you! I am currently pet sitting full time, this leaves me plenty of planning time for all pet care needs, activities and time to schedule accordingly. I care for all of my clients pets as if the owners were still home. This minimizes stress to the beloved family member. I will always ask about their personality, play, favorite toy, meal or activity.
About: I currently work at Safe Haven Pet Resort, which means I work with animals almost everyday and I have for 3 years now! I have learned now how to do some training and to be able to read a dogs body language. Being that I do work at Safe Haven, pet care has become a huge part of my life! Working with animals is what I love to do and I wouldn’t have it any other way! I have 2 pups of my own so when I am watching your pets they can also have play buddies! My dogs are very friendly and love to make new friends!
About: I have owned and loved animals all my life. From cats and dogs, to llamas, horses and even raising an orphan buffalo, animals are my passion. I would love to provide quality care and compassion for your fur baby! I’m retired, an Army veteran and still enjoy staying busy. My schedule affords me the unique opportunity to be available to provide services during the work week as needed. I will care for your pets as if they were mine and provide love, attention and compassion. Your animals are family, and I will respect them and your home.
