“Scott took great care of my two cats while I was away on the other side of the country for about a week and a half- and he will definitely take good care of your pets too!”

About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and have been caring for my four dogs and two cats for over 13 years. I’ve had them since I was a kid, so they’re a huge part of my life. One of my dogs is around 50 lbs and another is 120 lbs, so I’m really comfortable handling dogs of all sizes. I’m gentle, patient, and love teaching them little tricks or just spending time with them. Animals usually warm up to me fast, and I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I can also help with older dogs or giving oral meds if needed. I truly love animals and treat every one like family. I’m currently on summer break from college and have soccer practice in the mornings, so I’m free from 10 AM to 5 PM, Monday through Friday. I’ll only be offering walks and check-ins during the day, and I’m super flexible within that time. I love spending time with animals and can easily fit into your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a fun walk, or some playtime and cuddles, I’ve got it covered! At your home, I’ll always follow your pet’s usual routine so they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. I’m neat, respectful, and treat every pet like my own making sure they’re happy, hydrated, and never left alone for too long. For both my safety and your pet’s, I may bring my boyfriend along during check ins or walks. He’s also great with animals and super gentle, so your pet will get even more love and attention. I always take time to build trust with each pet and send updates and pictures so you feel confident they’re in good hands.
“Tina came on time, waited to see our animals, and fed and watered them as requested. Our cats are shy around strangers, but one of them approached and ate while Tina was there. I can tell Tina is good with animals!”
“Audra took great care of my senior cat while I was away and even brought him some string to play with! She was timely and sent pictures of her visit. Would definitely book her again.”
“Nicolle did a wonderful job watching Squares, our 14 year old blind cat. She exceeded our expectations and sent us Squares pictures every day. She made us feel comfortable leaving him home for the entire week while we were on vacation. Definitely will be asking her to watch Squares again! Awesome person & pet sitter!”
“Michael kept me updated with photos and videos of walking my fur babies while I was away on my trip. They are very happy in their photos and seemed to enjoy Michael's company. Would use again!”
About: I've been caring for animals my entire adult life and after changing careers I decided to pursue something that makes me enjoy my work. I spent several years volunteering for a local shelter dealing with situations that included large and small breed dogs. Recently (the last 4 years) I've opened my home mostly to short term fosters that need a temporary place before finding forever families. This process has given my ample experience in home settings where I'm now extremely comfortable interacting with animals unfamiliar with me or a new environment. I can provide Play Time, Walking, Park Trips, Long Distance Day Trips, Feeding, and even Poo Removal. I'm new to Rover but you won't find someone with more practical experience and passion than myself so please get in contact if you would like to meet ! Currently I'm working part-time so my schedule is typically open 5 days a week but I'm sure arrangements can be made depending on the situation. I have a large fenced yard and three friendly dogs of my own to keep visitors company. If you require in home care I will treat your property as if it was my own.
About: I have a lifetime of experience living with and loving animals! I have always had a dog and a cat in my family, sometimes more than one of each. Because of this I bring a deep understanding of animal behavior to every pet care experience. Personalized care tailored to your furry family member is my utmost priority. You can depend on a calm, happy, and fun time with me! My schedule is open and I am willing to accommodate to any specific needs in order to make sure their furry family member is well taken care of. Any pet I take into my home will need to follow the basic rules I have for all animals that come here. I also understand varying needs client by client and will easily adjust as necessary. Once an acceptable agreement is reached, I will honor that absolutely and totally.
About: I love dogs and owning 2 has inspired me to work with more. I am a graduate of Animal Behavior College where I earned my certification as a Dog Trainer. Animal Behavior College (ABC) is approved by the Bureau for Private Postsecondary and Vocational Education and is an internationally recognized institution. My year long commitment to this program has provided me with a formal education in canine obedience training and a professional understanding of canine behavior. My certification and skills will ensure your dog is in good hands. I am available 7 days a week because I own 2 dogs of my own and I also work from home. Availability may vary during holidays. For boarding and daycare clients must be crate trained to ensure the safety of everyone. Facilities include an outdoor run that is turfed and equipped with showers to keep clean and a misting fan system for hot days, along with an assortment of chew toys and snacks and elevated beds. All clients sleep indoors in an air conditioned room.
“Belinda cared so lovingly for my cat. I usually feel worried about leaving her home alone. This time I didn’t feel like that because I knew she was in good hands and getting excellent care during my trip. I would definitely book with Belinda again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and puppies for 12 years plus! I’m experienced with behavioral issues and can administer medications. Patience is what is key!

I’m a professional and respectful of your home and I will treat and care and clean after your fur babies as my own fur babies!

Highly recommend her services—she's reliable, communicative, and wonderful with pets! Thank you, Danielle!”

He has taken care of our family dog Bella for even weeks at a time, she absolutely loves spending time with him and his other dogs. Definitely an awesome guy who truly cares for animals, even if they are not his own . Thank you Derek for loving our dog Bella ❤️”
Eric H.
“We had the pleasure of having Eric look after our two dogs while we were away for a week, and he exceeded all our expectations. One of our dogs can be quite wary around men, and the other has a knack for attempting great escapes by jumping the fence. Amazingly, under Eric’s care, both dogs were calm, happy, and well-behaved. He visited three times a day, always on schedule, and truly engaged with our pets rather than just stopping by to feed them. Eric took the time to build trust with our more cautious pup, and by the end of the week, they had formed such a strong bond that our dog didn’t want to leave his side! Eric was reliable, caring, and went above and beyond—we wouldn’t hesitate to have him watch our dogs again. He’s truly a gem!”
Bowen L.
“Bowen is an incredibly attentive and kind caregiver! You can tell that dogs adore him just as much as he adores them. He's great at keeping them entertained/active, plus out of mischief. He's also very knowledgeable about how to keep dogs healthy- physically, mentally, the works! He once took in a poor stray and got that puppy healthy and well-trained in a matter of no time. I'm always impressed by how even the rowdiest dogs listen to him!!”

Diana was able to manage my cats and dogs while I was away with no worries on my mind. She spoiled them! I returned after 3 days and my babies didn’t even miss me! She completely won over their hearts and trust. Diana is great at communicating and keeping up with sending photos and updates! We will only ever have Diana watch our babies!”

She helped me out years agoby taking in my elderly dog for almost a year when I was working in two different cities, not sure where I would land. She was kind. She kept him happy, healthy, and well loved. When returned to my care he was very happy, yet I know he missed her too. I would trust her with any animal that needs short term care.”
