Wonderful care as always! I used to only use Sara if I was going to be gone for one or two days. This is the longest I’ve used her, after a recent questionable instance at the place I used to board my fur baby. She was great the entire time and always provided me wonderful updates with photos!

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs in the past four years. My own and my moms dog. I know how relieving it is to have a helping hand when life gets busy. I’m able to help make sure your fur baby is accounted for, getting proper excersize and on your behalf. If you need services such as bathing, feeding meds, or cuddles — I can help with that too. I’ve raised two dogs in the past four years, so pet care is second nature to me. My pup, Ace, is stuck to my hip, so I am fully equipped for playtime, walks, and potty time throughout the day. If you have specifics needs for your fur baby, let me know. I will make sure to follow your instructions through out my visit. I’m trustworthy in all environments and will make sure your pup is having a great experience.

About: I have volunteered at Animal Protective League for nearly 12 years. I am a lover of all animals big and small. Several family members have relied on me to care for their dogs and other pets during that time. Most of my experience is centered around cats as I foster kittens for my local animal shelter, but I did grow up with several dogs. I may not have a dog now, but I will do my best to care for each and every fur-baby that I meet. I am partially employed to a small business that gives me work opportunities when they need extra help. Unfortunately those opportunities are mostly seasonal so I won't receive any work until spring (if COVID doesn't get any worse). They do let me know if they need me several weeks in advance, and my open schedule can be adjusted accordingly if I am given a regulated schedule by someone who wants me to regularly walk/check in with their pet during the day. I have experience house-sitting and caring for my employer's animals. I make a daily schedule for my duties and keep in touch with my employer's in case that schedule changes or if I have any questions/comments about

About: I've had pets my whole life, from birds, reptiles, and fish to dogs, cats and rodents, so I know my way around various pets and how to take care of them, as such any special needs won't be too far out of my expertise. When it comes to dogs I've taken two puppies of mine to training classes and am willing to work with whatever training you have in place with your dog, whether that is working on correcting behaviors like jumping or continuing to teach them certain tricks while you're away, I will try my best to make sure they stay on the right track! Cats are the kind of pet I've had for the longest and know the best, even though none of mine so far have been major trouble makers I know how fickle some can be. I'm not afraid to do the occasional litterbox clean if needed or to keep an eye on them during their occasional zoomies. Currently my schedule is pretty flexible, I'm available any day from noon to midnight so if you need someone to check in on your pet overnight I'm available! I'm willing to work with any dietary needs and/or restrictions your pet has and as I've given medications to my pets before I would be able to give your pet any if they needed it during my visit. I'm big into teaching my dogs how to be respectful on a walk so I would be willing to continue any on walk training you may have!

Kendi was so good with my cat, Leo, and made sure to play with him and give him lots of love during drop-ins. I really appreciated the photos and updates she sent. It was very comforting to know Leo was in good hands while I was out of town.

Amelia did a great job taking care of our timid foster friend while we were out of town. It was our first time using Rover so I was a bit nervous but Amelia was a great communicator and our kitty did great. I will definitely ask Amelia for help again and I would recommend her to friends and family. She goes above and beyond.

About: Ive taken care of my own dogs, as well as, neighbors dogs since I was very young. I appreciate animals and enjoy helping to make their experience comfortable. I really only have a commitment on Thursdays, so pet care fits nicely into any day, if I am contacted a bit ahead of time. I am used to having dogs who require a lot of attention, so will be sure to give your pet the same love. I am comfortable caring for dogs in any home situation, as well.

They take animal care very seriously. If an animal is going through a tough time, they will everything in their power to help or at least make the animal more comfortable in the process.

About: Hi there! My name is Elizabeth and I’m 31 years old. I have a lab mix, Charlie. She is 8 years old. As well as a English Springer Spaniel, Salem and a Black Lab, Penny…they are both two years old. I enjoy spending time with any kind of dogs! I love walking, hiking and being outside as much as I can! I work full time but I can leave anytime to tend to my own dog and others pets! I also am a photographer and do a lot of pet photography. I try to walk my own dog at least 3 miles a day. We go on lots of hikes and enjoy each other’s company. We go to the dog park as well. I hope your pets can temporarily be part of my little family! Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks ! I currently work full time but looking to add daily pet care to my schedule to fulfill a void with time during the day with my business. At my home, my dogs/cats are very cared for. We have crate trained, have them on feeding Schedules and walk them daily. We have a fenced in back yard for them as well. When someone else’s pet is in my care, I treat them like my own

Cameron is a very nice, trusting, and a very professional dog sitter! My husband and I asked Cameron to take our 2 dogs (basset hound and bassador) out to go potty and check on them 2x in the afternoon/evening while we were attending our wedding. He did 2 meet and greets with our boys and they really liked Cameron! Cameron had/has WONDERFUL communication with you, makes sure he knows what should be done and how it should be done, and makes sure your fur babies are content! Needless to say, thanks to Cameron, my husband and I didn't have ANY worries leaving our boys in his hands! If I could give Cameron more than 5 stars, I DEFINITELY would! I would definitely recommend Cameron, and he will be the first person I ask to care for our boys!
