About: From pups to great Danes, turtles to amazon green parrots, fish and more, love them all. Cats are great but only can do drop in visits. I work from home and pets will go out supervised in the yard and walks, weather permitting( down pour rain). Letting pets out IS MY PRIORITY!! I have a fenced in shaded yard perfect for small sunbathing and rolling around in the grass. Great for doing zoomies and playing ball lots of fun!!

About: My love for pets started at a young age when I began caring for my family’s dogs. Over time, what began as a simple responsibility grew into a deep passion for their well-being. Today, I bring that same dedication, joy, and care to every pet I look after. With years of experience, I’ve cared for pets of all breeds and ages, from playful puppies to wise seniors. Here’s what sets me apart: All breeds, all ages: I’m comfortable caring for every type of pet, ensuring their unique needs are met with patience and expertise. Medication administration: I’m experienced in giving oral medications and insulin injections with care and precision, so your pet stays healthy and stress-free. Puppy training and socialization: I’ve helped young pets develop good habits, build confidence, and feel at home in their environment. Senior pet care: I understand the gentle needs of older pets, from low-impact play to monitoring their comfort and well-being. Compassionate and reliable: I treat every pet like my own, providing a safe, loving, and fun experience they’ll love. If you’re looking for a sitter who combines experience, trustworthiness, and a genuine love for pets, let’s connect! I’d love to discuss how I can make your pet’s day as special as they make yours. I have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care and love being around animals. Here’s how I’ll make sure their needs are always met: Daily: Morning and evening: Feed the pet and take them for walks or playtime. Throughout the day: Spend time cuddling, training, or providing companionship. Weekly: Cleaning their space, and ensuring they’re happy and healthy. Longer outings or adventures, like trips to the park or beach, if the pet enjoys it. Flexibility: I’m available for drop-ins, last-minute requests, and overnight boarding. Experience: I’ve cared for pets in the past and love making sure they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for. Whether it’s a quick walk, a playdate, or a longer stay, I’m happy to help! I treat every pet as part of my family, whether they’re staying in my home or visiting yours. Here’s how I ensure their comfort and safety: In My Home: I provide a safe and cozy space: I prepare a quiet, pet-friendly area with their bed, toys, and familiar items (like blankets or treats) to help them feel at home. Routine care: I stick to their regular feeding, walking, and playtime schedule to keep them comfortable. Supervision: I monitor their behavior, energy levels, and health, and I’m always available to provide companionship or address any concerns. Cleanliness: I keep their space tidy, sanitize bowls and bedding, and ensure their environment is safe (e.g., no hazards like loose wires or toxic plants). Pet-proofing: I make sure my home is secure, especially for curious or energetic pets. In a Client’s Home: I am respectful and observant: I follow the pet’s routine exactly as the owner describes, including feeding times, walks, and any specific instructions (e.g., no treats, certain commands, or favorite toys). Home safety: I double-check that doors, windows, and gates are secure to prevent escapes. I also ensure the pet doesn’t have access to unsafe areas (e.g., cleaning supplies, trash, or small objects they could swallow). Updates: I provide regular updates to the owner, including photos or messages about how their pet is doing/ any concerns I have. Emergency plan: I have the owner’s vet contact info and my backup’s details in case of an emergency. Extra care: I love giving pets extra love and attention through cuddles, gentle play, or quiet time—whatever they need to feel happy and relaxed.

About: I will treat your fur babies like they are my own and would love to meet them. I have experience in training dogs and taking care of senior dogs. I work from home, therefore I am available from Monday through Sunday and your pet can stay overnight or if needed just during the day. I have a fenced in yard and a King shepherd female, which is friendly with other dogs therefore your fur baby would have a playmate to enjoy the time here. I will play with them, feed them and also give them treats.

“I almost hate to review this true gem! Linda will puppy sit one dog at a time which is great for my people-friendly, dog-hesitant fur baby. Her love of pets is so very apparent the moment you meet her. What a truly great find.”

“Katie is amazing!! She's clearly knows what she's doing and cares a lot about every dog that comes through her front door. I got regular updates and photos, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. My pet comes home happy and well cared for. I’d absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”

Bri T.

“She took good care of our dog and treat her as he own. We got regular updates, complete with pictures, which gave us peace of mind. When we came back to pick her up our pet was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable pet sitter!”

“Nola and Rick took our 2 dogs into daycare as a short notice booking. Both dogs enjoyed spending 2 days with them. I would definitely use these 2 again in any future visits.”

About: I have been working with dogs for about 8 years. I have experience from working at kennels and a veterinary office. I am pet CPR certified and have taken courses on dog behavior and body language. Dogs are truly my passion and I love each and every one like they are my own. I have a very open and flexible schedule to watch your furry friends! I am available weekdays, weekends and holidays. I do live on 3 acres of land with a smaller fenced in dog area off of the back patio. There is plenty of space for your dog to run and have fun but also can accommodate a slower lifestyle for the old timers. I have 3 dogs of my own that have been with me in the kennels and doggie daycare so they are very well versed on all types of behavior from other pets and are tolerant and love the company. I’m currently watching dogs from home full time so my schedule is tailored to your dog and their needs. I never leave our dogs alone for more than 4 hours and you can expect the same while I am watching your furry friends! I live on 3 acres along with living in a peaceful neighborhood so if your dog is use to getting walks every day, I can do that. If your dog is a lazy bones and just wants to hang out we’ve got space to do that too. They will get plenty of attention and be treated like my own.

“Candace was wonderful! Yesterday was our dog’s first day care stay (after a most promising meet & greet). Candace was most professional and kept us updated with pictures/ texts. It was obvious from the moment of arrival our dog was her priority for the day. Also, one can tell she is a “dog person” who has a genuine fondness for our pet!”

“Flexible, friendly, and attentive to the pups!”

“Many pet daycare facilities close between 6:00 pm and 7:30 pm, so I looked on Rover.com to find a pet sitter who coud watch my dog later than that while I went out to dinner. I was glad to find Sarah. Sarah was very friendly and I felt comfortable leaving my dog with her. Her home looked like a very nice environment in which pets could happily play and rest. I would leave my dog with Sarah again.”

About: I'm experienced working with dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds. Working in dog training, veterinary hospitals, and even animal control has left me with a wide variety of experience. Self employed, so I have a free schedule. Only times unavailable are Sunday mornings. Any days I'll be unavailable will be known months in advance. I have a private fenced in yard with a security system. Also full access between the house and sunroom. Segregation tools like crates are available if needed.

“Our dog Sammy loves spending time with Chris and JoAnn. They always do a great job caring for him with love and kindness. We appreciate receiving the pictures and messages about how he's doing. Thank you very much Chris and JoAnn!”

About: I've always had a passion for animals my whole life. When i was 13-14 i volunteered at a petting zoo with all sorts of animals even dogs.I also use to pet sit for family friends quite a lot. I currently work at a boarding/daycare facility where we tend to all of their different needs. I'm currently traveling with my boyfriend for his work, so anytime i have a booking on here i will be home the entire time. Other then that i would be doing door dash/spark driver but id much rather pet sit to continue doing what i love. Anything involved with animals. Have 100% attention towards them. Take them out to run and play atleast ever 1-2 hours (more of course if their outside loving dogs). Making sure their eating as they should be and drinking plenty of water.

“Dawn was able to accommodate our very last minute request to watch our puppy while we went tubing at Rainbow Springs State Park. She was very responsive and was willing to watch our puppy longer than our booked time, since we were delayed by weather in the area. She made our anniversary trip down the river possible. We are thankful to Dawn and her children for caring for our puppy.”

About: I’ve been living with dogs my whole life and I love all kinds of pets! I have experience with all ages and sizes of dogs and cats except bottle-babies. I am a certified dog trainer and formerly worked at an animal rescue as the behavior manager. This has provided me with experience with dogs and cats of various temperaments from a variety of situations. I also offer private dog training and other pet services through my private business. My work schedule is pretty flexible so I can make time any day of the week to work with you and your pets. For dogs in boarding, I always make time throughout the day for plenty of playing, physical exercise, mental enrichment, and relaxation. I have experience with a variety of care requirements including special handling for animals of different temperaments, walking and exercising dogs with behavioral issues, preparing specialized diets, and administering medications that I am confident in applying to your pet’s needs. While boarded, each dog has their own space to sleep, eat, and otherwise relax without being bothered by other dogs in the home. This can be a crate or puppy pen depending on what is the best fit for the dog. This is also where the dogs stay while I am out of the house to prevent any incidents between dogs. During the day, the dogs have the opportunity to spend their time inside or outside. There are plenty of toys and beds inside for some playing or relaxing. Outside, they have a fenced-in acre to run, explore, and roughhouse. The dog-friendly pool will be ready for use in April 2026. It has a 8x16ft sun shelf to allow for lounging in shallow water and a ramp for easy access in and out of the deep end. It is screened in to prevent anyone from slipping in unnoticed. For days that don’t allow for much exercise outside, I have treadmills to burn energy for dogs that are comfortable with them and plenty of puzzle feeders to keep their minds busy.

About: I have taken care of both my own and all the neighborhood pets since I was very small! I am an avid walker ready to wear your baby out for miles and miles a day if needed or just walking a slow few houses away if distance is a struggle. I know each sweet soul is different and deserves all the special attention to them so am flexible with whatever needed to make your pet happy and comfortable! Tough wild puppies and old grumpies in need of medications or treatments, I will handle them all! I currently travel too often to have my own pets so use my time at home to love on others! When I am pet sitting i am usually working from home those days with full access to your pet or half days so I can make sure im available full time. My home is free reign to your animal and they can treat it as their own. So no worries to couch cuddlers or bed sleepers! Runners and bolters will be closely watched and contained. For elderly mobility issue animals any stairs or hard to navigate issues will be blocked off. So safety is directly attended to!

About: I will make your dog feel like you are still there with them including playing with them run with them take them on plenty of walks.I will give your dog plenty of love and affection. I have had two yorkies for fifteen years and have treated like they were my children. I can train your dog to do tricks! I have two little children that would also give your dog plenty of love and affection. I have trained many dogs to do tricks and potty train. I love all kinds of animals and care for everyone like it’s my own. So bring your dog to me for the day or even over night. They will be returned to you happy and very secure. you will be satisfied!
