Jacquelyn was absolutely great with my 90lb German Shepherd. She kept me updated the entire time and made sure he was back safely in our home. Highly recommend for daily dog walks.

About: Hi, I’m Samantha! As a military spouse, mom, and lifelong animal lover, I understand the importance of reliability and trust when it comes to caring for your pets. I’ve cared for many dogs over the years and have experience with different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, companionship, or extra patience and attention, I’m happy to help. I treat every pet like part of the family and will make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I am already a pet owner and understand the importance of consistent care, attention, and exercise. My schedule allows me to provide regular feedings, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I enjoy spending time with animals and make their comfort and well-being a priority. Whether it’s daily visits, overnight care, or maintaining a pet’s established routine, I am committed to providing reliable, loving care and keeping owners updated while they’re away. The safety and comfort of every pet in my care is my top priority. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions. I take time to get to know each pet’s personality and needs to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I maintain a clean and pet-friendly environment, ensure doors, gates, and fences are secure, and always supervise pets during walks and playtime. In a client’s home, I respect their space and provide regular updates, photos, and communication so they can have peace of mind while away. My goal is to treat every pet like family and provide dependable, trustworthy care at all times. 🐾❤️

Robert is amazing, flexible and willing to help more than just walking the dog. When I had to deal with issues when I was in the hospital, he stepped up and was a blessing. I think my dog likes him more than me.

About: I’ve taken care of all different kids of pets since I was about 13 years old. I’ve done it for neighbors, friends, family. I am active and like to play around and run with them! I also can just sit and chill with pets and I love just petting them and making them feel comfortable. I have 2 dogs, and 3 cats, so I’m always around animals! I am working part time so I have a lot of free time right now! Sundays I have church but I can go before or after it! I can do mornings as early as 6:30am, and evenings no later than 11. I am respectful and honest and I will take care of whatever pet in whatever home to the best of my ability. I will do my best to keep them safe and comfortable!

About: I’ve had various pets all of my life and have been very hands on caring for them. I’ve had everything from horses, dogs and cats, and rabbits and guinea pigs. I also have experience working as a Veterinary technician at our local vet office. I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m mostly available throughout the week aside from occasional shifts starting after 4 pm. I live on a small hobby farm, so I have a large fenced property as well as a smaller, more private fenced area. I have friendly dogs of my own. I can easily crate your dog if wanted, bathe and trim nails, and take them for walks or any other requested activities!

Weekends would preferably work better but I can work with you ! I currently do not accept at home sitting due to me not owning my own house. However when I get my own place I will !

Martina has been extremely reliable and patient. She’s always communicative during the walks and keeps me updated, which I really appreciate. Being in the Army with unpredictable hours is tough, but she truly puts my mind at ease knowing my baby is getting the care and attention he needs when I can’t be there. I’m so thankful for her!

About: I’ve had and taken care of dogs my whole life! I have experience with young, senior, active, and working dogs. My family dog growing up was born deaf and with a thyroid condition so I am very familiar with medication admission or other disabilities. My husband and I often work different shifts so someone is often home with the dog(s). I have no problem moving work around to care for your furbaby! I have a fenced in yard and large home. There is only one dog and plenty of room for the dogs to stretch their legs or spread out. I am active and will run or walk your pet!

About: What truly sets me apart is a lifetime of dedicated animal experience, not just a casual interest. I’ve been a devoted dog owner since the age of 13, giving me a full decade of hands-on familiarity with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. Beyond household pets, I bring a unique level of capability honed by my time as a farmhand, where I gained invaluable experience caring for a variety of animals on a working ranch. This background ensures I'm not only comfortable and confident managing larger breeds or those requiring specific routines, but I also approach pet care with a heightened sense of responsibility, awareness, and maturity. When you entrust your furry family member to me, you're hiring someone with instinct, professionalism, and genuine love that comes from a life spent caring for animals. I intentionally limit the number of pets I care for at any given time. This practice allows me to perfectly integrate their specific feeding, walking, and play schedules into my daily routine, ensuring every pet receives my full focus and attention, just as if they were my own. Whether caring for your companion in your home or mine, my primary goal is consistency and comfort. I strictly adhere to your pet's established routine—from scheduled feedings and walks to timely medication—ensuring a stress-free experience. If I stay in your home, I treat your property with complete respect. My ranch background guarantees I'm adept at subtle health monitoring, so you can be confident your pet is not only receiving plenty of focused cuddles but is also safe, stable, and well-cared for at all times.

About: I’ve had my own 3 dogs for the last 6 years. Before that, I would take care of my friends animals. I often dog sit and cat sit for close friends and family. Figured I would do it on here, too! I have trained all of my dogs, nothing crazy. Just the basics. One of my dogs does have health issues and another has really bad allergies so I definitely know what it’s like to have a certain routine per animal. All my animals needs are different and I’m here to provide that to lessen your stress ☺️ All day, all night!!! I am also able to travel. I drive a lot so I don’t mind if I have to travel a bit. I would love for the pet owners to give me a run down no matter what! Even if your animal is low maintenance. My dogs are high maintenance so I’m also used to that. I just like specific instructions, I feel it makes it easier for everyone involved! Especially if I’m pet sitting in your home. That’s your safe space.

About: I have always had animals growing up - dogs & cats. I love to take dogs outside on walks & play with them whenever need be. I also love cats as well & currently own four of my own. I am very responsible and caring of any animal, and I would love to take care of your animal! I currently work full time as an occupational therapist. I started doing Rover while in graduate school and loved it! Although I am more busy with work these days, I still love to watch animals whenever I get the chance on the weekends. Disclaimer for house sitting: As much as I love watching your animals, I also need to be able to run errands. While I will ensure your animals are well taken care of…if you animal cannot tolerate being left alone for 4-5 hours during the day I kindly ask you request somebody else. Thank you! I take directions very well & will do anything necessary to ensure your animal is well cared for and safe. I understand that each pet is different, so I take this into consideration into pet sitting any animal. Just tell me your expectations & I will make sure to meet them!

About: Never met a dog/cat that doesn’t vibe with me. Don’t worry about your lil ones they’re in good care. I have trained puppies and take care of dogs as old as 10 years old. I am here to ease the stress of being scared of your pet being in the wrong hands. I have a lot of free time at the moment and would love to help others who do not have that freedom and want their lil ones to be able to enjoy the outdoors and a person. I make sure the client has given instructions on how they take care of their pets from day to day and i will tend to that schedule. i will make it a little flexible with putting in more outside time than usual.
