About: I am an operations manager and I work nights on the weekends! This makes my week very free and flexible. If you need your pet cared for on a day different than the availability I have listed, message me! I may be able to provide services on alternative days depending on the week. I have a dog, Rigatoni, and he loves to play with other dogs. I love to hang out around animals and I will give your pet all the love it needs while you are away! My schedule for my job is Saturday night-Tuesday morning. This means that I am very flexible during the week. As a rover user myself, I understand the importance of communicating while watching someone’s pet, and I am excited to spend time with more animals. My apartment complex has an expansive green space. I will be able to walk your pet around a pretty environment based on the amount you would typically have them outside and their normal activity level. I love being active, so your pet will return to you happy and healthy. In drop by visits, I am willing to stay as long as needed to ensure that your pet has time to play or just be around someone while you are away.

About: For over 30 years, I've had the joy of caring for cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. Growing up surrounded by these wonderful companions taught me just how special the bond between a pet and their person is. Today, I’m honored to help others by providing their pets with the same love, attention, and care they’re used to at home. You can count on me to be reliable, trustworthy, and to treat your furry family member like my own! Now enjoying retirement, I am fortunate to have the time and flexibility to dedicate my days to caring for pets who bring so much love and joy into our lives. When caring for pets in their own home, I treat the space and routines with the utmost respect. I make sure your pet(s) feel safe and cared for by sticking closely to their normal schedule and providing plenty of affection, exercise, and companionship. Whether it’s feeding, walking, medication, or just quiet time, I tailor each visit to your pet’s needs and personality. I am also happy to share photo and video updates so you can stay connected with your fur babies.

About: I've worked as a vet assistant, at a pet store, volunteered at a animal shelter and have been dog training, grooming, walking and pet/dog sitting for years. This is what I do for work so I am able to be with your sweeties as much as possible! Feel free to reach out to me! I always monitor and take as best care of them possible. Excercise when they need, rest when they need, potty, food etc. if your pets have a schedule I'll stick to it. If not well then tell me what you'd like and call it done!

About: I grew up on a farm with pets of all kinds. I have worked caring for and training dogs, cats, and even exotic animals. I have experience working with many species of all ages as a zookeeper! I attend a university full time, but have large gaps in my schedule and days off giving me time to care for my own pet and extra time to fill. I am flexible and comfortable lounging with a couch potato or entertaining high energy pets. My personal pets are crate trained, enjoy learning new tricks, going on long walks, and relaxing on the couch. I keep all dogs on a leash, to prevent any accidents and train them in basic obedience. I keep my pets well socialized and watch mannerisms closely to avoid any aggressive or uncomfortable situations.

About: I have many friends and family members who have dogs that I have cared for, both short term and long. I am an active person, so being outside for playtime and taking long walks or something that I quite enjoy. I also understand that every animal has a different personality and can adapt to each one well! I have taken care of many animals: cats, dogs, reptiles, aquatics, and some exotic animals like hedgehogs! I work from home Monday through Friday, so I’m very flexible with when I’m able to visit as well as the type of activities I can do with your furry, scaly, or gilled pets! I am a pet owner in longtime pet lover! I also understand that every pet has their own personality and a different temperament, so before committing to me as a sitter I’d love to be able to meet your pet just to make sure the connection is good.

About: Every dog is different, and must be evaluated to establish the proper care for them. The basic rules of engagement is trust, loyalty, respect, love and of course treats. I demonstrate a leader of a pack with confidence in meeting new dogs, engaging to meet every dog's needs. I have trained my own dogs along with friends dogs. The success is based on how well you evaluate them. I really love the compassion and unconditional love they have for their human's. I have cared for and raised puppies into beautiful old puppies and when my golden slowed down and was barely able to walk, I had to make the hardest decision of my life. The reason I am interested in dog care, is because while I was at work, she was home alone waiting for me to get home and it would have been great to have someone come pay attention to her. I want to be there for pets, for the people that can't be, and brighten their pets day while they make money to care for them. I also understand what its like to try to plan a vacation with pets, the pet deserves their own little vacation while the family takes a break. My outlook is you can't have too many best friends and wish to make a few more on my journey.
