About: I have lots of puppy care experience, and I know how to take care of all types of breeds. I will make sure your animals are loved and treated like family! I work pretty much full time at a dog boarding/daycare facility, so I know how to take care of animals very well! I work every day except Saturday and Sunday, my shifts are usually no longer than 6 hours. I live in an apartment with lots of space, so I can accommodate a lot of different animals. Also a huge outside area where they can do their business and play!
About: I love all animals, and I'm willing to get my hands dirty (litterboxes are no match for me). I am very good at getting animals to take meds when needed, and I love just hanging out and keeping pets company so they don't feel lonely. I also have experience in taking care of animals with advanced grooming needs such as dailying brushing or bathing. I currently work Monday through Friday until 5 pm so I'm usually only open weekends unless it's just to pop by and make sure the animals are doing okay. Unless they are staying with me at my home in which wouldn't be a problem as I work from home. I have a fenced in backyard for playing. I have an extra crate if needed. I take my own dog on daily walks. We like to go to the trail at the school next door.
“Michaela was very professional and took good care of my dog. She did everything I requested. I did scheduled drop ins and she was able to take my dog on a short walk and fed her as needed. She also provided good pictures while I was gone. Definitely recommend!”

“Ashleigh is an absolute delight! I Invited her into my home and put her in charge of Missy's care with all the confidence that Ashleigh will take great care of both. She is positive, delightful, caring, kind and considerate. I trust her with my most precious things! Thank you, Ashleigh.”

About: I have been talking care of family and friends animals since the age of 10 and still to this day. From walking to feeding to bathing, and grooming I have done it all. I wouldnt be the person I am today if it wernt for being around and taking care of animals. Pets make my life so much more enjoyable seeing them happy them showing love in return. I have a Morkie who is the biggest lover on this planet. She is great with other animals and will keep them great company. I also use to train dogs when I was younger and have had the privilege to train all of my family and friends pets. So if your fur baby is in need of a little extra help I would be thrilled to work with them! I am currently a stay at home mother who has lots of time and love to give and would be honored to care for your fur baby. I have a fenced in back yard and a very loving and friendly fur baby to keep your pet company and lots of toys and love to give little one
“Carol is so reliable and sends lots of pictures. My cats really like her and it's nice to have someone they know rather than a different sitter every time. Carol is very quick to respond to new requests.”

About: Hi, I’m Raven! I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always had a deep love for animals. As a dedicated dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet’s care. I treat every dog as if they were my own, providing plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while ensuring they feel safe and comfortable. I have experience with dogs of all ages, including senior dogs, and I’m comfortable administering oral medications when needed. I currently own a Catahoula Leopard Dog, so I’m familiar with energetic breeds and the importance of daily exercise, enrichment, and consistent care. I currently work as a Family Support Specialist and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the day, including walks, drop-in visits, potty breaks, and companionship. I work both from home and in the office, giving me flexibility to accommodate your pet’s needs. I cannot have other dogs in my home due to my Catahoula Leopard being protective. I have always kept an eye on dogs when they go outside and I even go outside with them to allow them to go the bathroom and also play with the them.
About: Family and Friends have called me the “dog whisperer”, because I am able to connect with their pets so easily. I feel pets are such a big part of your family; your baby, your little one, or your child almost. You would be entrusting me with the care of this most precious part of your family. I love to be down on the floor giving the fur babies my undivided attention … whether it be petting, playing, belly scratching, brushing, or loving on your fur baby. I Love to be face-to-face and making a connection with the pets. I am also a walker myself, so I I love to be outside walking your pets. I work from home and my schedule is extremely flexible. My schedule is able to be put on hold for periods of time, if more time and attention are required or needed. I am able to leave to walk your fur baby, pet-sit at your place, or take care of your fur baby at my home. Pet care is as on-hands and giving as much attention to your fur baby as you wish. I am ready to love them as much as they want and need. I do live in an apartment with places surrounding the building to take dogs outside to potty. There is a new dog park just a block from where I reside. My building is a secure building that is locked with cameras everywhere in the hallways. There are long hallways in my building with very few residents and lots of room to run inside when weather outside is not good. I am able to leave as often as needed to walk dogs. Also, I am able to care for your fur babies in their own home or at my residence.

About: I've had animals in my family since I was a kid so I am very familiar and comfortable around all sorts of animals. I have cared for dogs of all sizes. Such as Shia tzus, Golden Retrievers, Australian Shepards, and German Shepards.I have experience giving a cat insulin and providing medicine day and night to both dogs and cats. I have taken care of puppies and older dogs. I have stayed the night at friend's houses when pet sitting and I have no fears of any kind of animal. I am currently not working so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I do play pickleball about 5 times a week and workout but those are activities that can be moved around to best fit your schedule. Pickleball is only about 3 hours of my day so it won't interfere with any pet duties I may have. In my home we use a company called Halo to keep my dog in my lawn so I am familiar with electric fences its technology. I always stay outside when letting my dog out for the bathroom and know how to work a leash when talking them on walks. I clean litter boxes and pick up poop. I have experience taking care of pets in their home but since I have animals of my own and no fence, I will not be available to take care of pets in my home.
“Avri was perfect for our little puppy!! She brought her 1 year old dog to socialize and even sent me pictures and video updates from their play time! We can’t wait to hire her in the future for our fur baby!”

About: I really enjoy dog sitting. I grew up with dogs, cats, fish, birds, hamsters, gerbils and guinea pigs as a child. I've raised 5 kids and have an empty nest now, so I can take care of your dog and give them lots of attention and love. I am perfect for your fur-baby and I can care for your pet in my home or in your home. I am a loving, caring person. I am responsible, level headed and trustworthy. When you go on vacation or need service, you will know that your family dog is in great hands. I love going for walks too. I don't have pets now, but would love to take care of your dog for you! I hope to meet your dog soon. Thank You.

I will definitely request Mira's help again - this was our first Rover experience, and she was a blessing. She went above and beyond by dropping by to meet Sam ahead of time so he wouldn't view her as an intruder. He's 90 pounds and we're still working on his puppy manners (like jumping and the occasional body slam), and she was competent and professional in taking him on. Mira dropped by twice as requested, took him for a walk, and sent plenty of photos so we could see he was having the best time with her. Highly recommend! Thank you, Mira!

Danielle and Travis do an amazing job of caring for our dog while we are away. They are extremely thorough in understanding what your pet's needs are before you leave and provide great updates while you're gone. We always look forward to the updates and can see from the photos and videos they send that our dog loves her time with them. They are amazing and we cannot recommend them enough!
