About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life and was always in charge of taking them outside, playing, bathing, and overall taking care of them! If you choose for me to watch your pet, I’ll treat them as if they were mine and give them all the love you would! My availability is very flexible because I only work 20 hours a week at work. I’m good at time management especially with animals because of my cat. I’m home most of the day. I have an unfenced yard, but I‘ll be able to take your dogs out and on walks frequently. I have a roommate who also uses Rover so she’s able to watch any pets if I’m out. I have a cat who gets along with all animals as well.

“We had a very, very last minute request but shawna was able to come through for us and Luna and went above and beyond. We really appreciate everything she did and I don’t think Luna missed us one bit because of her”

“Maggie is a great communicator and has been so sweet with my dog!! She was very patient and waited until he felt comfortable coming out of his crate during her first visit. Maggie is very easy to work with and provides excellent care. I never worry about my dog while he is with Maggie because of how experienced, knowledgeable, and trustworthy she has proven to be. I would highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve been working with dogs for over 19 years and provide a structured, calm, and safe environment in my home. I have a dedicated dog room with secure kennels, supervised interaction, and clear boundaries. I currently own and train multiple dogs, including a fully trained service animal and another dog I’ve personally raised and developed. This gives me strong experience with behavior, energy management, and different personalities. Dogs in my care are treated like family, but with structure. They can enjoy comfort like furniture once they demonstrate respectful behavior and cleanliness. I do not allow destructive or uncontrolled habits. I’m comfortable with puppies and can reinforce basic training, routine, and good behavior during their stay. I also provide advanced training reinforcement as part of my care. Dogs naturally work on obedience, confidence, impulse control, and daily mental and physical engagement while they’re here. I have experience building service-style task foundations and higher-level behavior, but I do not certify service animals. Every dog benefits from structure in my home, whether they need basic manners or more advanced work. My focus is safety, consistency, and communication so every dog is properly supervised, exercised, and leaves more balanced, responsive, and confident. Pet care is part of my daily routine, not something I fit in on the side. I’m home most of the day, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, structured interaction, and regular potty breaks, exercise, and mental engagement. My background in disciplined environments has shaped how I run my home—dogs here benefit from routine, clear expectations, and a calm, controlled atmosphere. Each day includes a balance of activity, training reinforcement, and rest so dogs stay healthy, settled, and stress-free. Because I’m available throughout the day, I can adapt to each dog’s needs—whether that’s higher energy, puppy structure, or a more relaxed pace. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care so owners can feel confident their dog is safe, engaged, and well looked after at all times. Safety, trust, and structure are the foundation of how I care for every dog. My home is set up specifically for pet care, with a dedicated dog room, secure kennels, and supervised interaction at all times. I carefully manage introductions and only allow dogs to interact once they are calm, balanced, and a good fit. Dogs in my care follow a structured routine that includes regular potty breaks, exercise, mental stimulation, and rest. I maintain clear boundaries while still allowing comfort—dogs can enjoy furniture and a relaxed environment once they demonstrate respectful behavior and cleanliness. I require dogs to be crate familiar or comfortable with structured downtime. Owners are encouraged to provide a crate or familiar setup for overnight stays, though I have limited kennel space available if needed. I prioritize communication and will keep owners updated with how their dog is doing. My goal is to provide a calm, controlled environment where dogs feel safe, are properly supervised, and leave more balanced and well cared for than when they arrived.

“Above and beyond dog walker with a clear love of animals! Thank you so much for being flexible and helping me take care of my energetic puppy during this busy season of life.”

About: As mentioned, I work in vet med! I am experienced with all ages, temperaments, breeds, health issues, and needs! I love a couch potato but I also own and love a working breed. I understand the importance of routine & mental stimulation! I spoil my fur children & understand wanting to keep yours happy while you’re away, but also able to trust that they’re safe! I own a dog that is overcoming his reactivity & that has required a lot of training & positive reinforcement work from myself in the presence of triggers—so I understand the difference in reactivity/anxiety vs aggression. I work full time Fridays through Mondays currently, but I have full availability during the week on Tuesdays through Thursdays. I don’t mind early mornings or late nights I would never leave someone’s pet unattended while under my care. I like for pets to have my full attention when I’m there. It’s what I’d expect & would want for my own! I’m very familar with canine & feline body language, anxiety, & aggression, and I know how to appropriately and effectively approach/handle pets whether they’re scared, reactive, or excited!

About: I’ve had animals my whole life. Dogs, cats, cows, horses, and fish. My pets are treated like family. I have house trained dogs and can even teach a few tricks. My animals mostly stay inside. They are house trained but do go out to play often. They eat twice a day and sleep well at night. My pets are family members and I would treat anyone’s the same. I know how important they are to me and I would make sure they are comfortable and taken good care of. I even clean litter boxes.
