“Grace did a GREAT job checking in on my cat Jasmine while I was gone. She was very conscientious in assuring she was doing ok, and in her reporting to me. I will definitely look for Grace again when I plan my next trip!”
About: Flexible schedule, lots of trails in my area for your puppies to explore, trustworthy, dependable and easily contacted. I’ve had pets of my own in the past that I loved and adored, and currently have a 3 year old eskimo/chihuahua that I adopted from the local shelter who loves to play w other dogs. I work three 12 hour shifts a week, meaning those 4 days off are great opportunities for me to walk your dog(s), stop in and check on them or stay with them. I understand the value of daily exercise and mental stimulation for a dog, so I will ensure they are getting their steps in. I also understand not everyone has the time or ability to ensure their pets receive daily exercise/time outside, and with my flexible schedule I would love to give you some peace of mind that your pet is having all of their needs met.
About: There has always been at least one dog in my house to take care of. I can assure you that your pet will be loved and cared for with the same amount I give my own at home. I am pretty flexible and can make time for you and your pet. I work part time and weekends would work better if boarding is requested. I take my dogs for walks or run around with them outside, I feed them when it’s time, and give them their medication if prescribed any. They also get lots of treats and cuddles!
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 4. I’ve had dogs, cats, and other small creatures. I do well with grooming, bathing, walks, and car rides. I’m currently doing online college. So I’m home all day! I have a fenced in yard for your fur babies. Hope to hear from you soon! I have a fenced in yard, leashes, to keep your fur baby safe. Plenty of access to walk and shade, and beds! Big or small
About: With five years of experience, I've developed a deep understanding of dog care, gained from working at various doggie daycare and boarding facilities. I also provide home visits, walks, and host dogs in my own home. I foster for a rescue, ensuring that my personal fosters and client dogs are kept separate. I live with two cats, one of whom is very dog-friendly, and two female dogs who are more reserved, preferring interactions on their own terms. My male Pitbull, however, is very playful. All my dogs are comfortable crating overnight and when I'm at work. I can only board male dogs, or smaller, submissive female dogs under 30 pounds. I work part time I’m the summer with a varying schedule. During the school year I am a teacher. I am gone from 7:30-4 daily. When dogs visit my home they are leashed in the yard, and will probably keep a drag leash on them while they learn the boundaries of the home. I will crate and rotate if needed to give the dogs time to settle in. I can provide mealtime enrichment in the forms of snuffle mats, frozen meals fillable treat toys, puzzle treats, snuffle games etc. I have boundaries in my home when it comes to behavior and dogs will get breaks in their kennel as needed for cool down time or an overstimulation break. If a dog has structural needs or some behavioral concerns, I am happy to talk about how/if I can accommodate them in my home. We have an abundance of chew toys, stuffies, and balls for dogs to play with but we can also remove them if your dog has some resource guarding tendencies with new dogs. When doing drop ins in a client home I make sure to be non threatening when arriving and giving the dogs lots of space and time to get used to me before expecting to take them out of their crate. I would need a breakdown of the house rules and can hold the boundaries needed. For walks, I don’t want to be tugged around, so I can provide alternate tools to help the dog walk better, including but limited to; head halters, front clip harnesses, slip leads, prong collars(I am trained in how to fit and use them properly). This can all be a discussion before services are scheduled. I also prefer to meet all my clients beforehand to ensure a proper fit for my home. All of my dogs are utd on their Rabies & Distemper/Parvo vaccines as well as spayed and neutered. They receive flea and tick preventatives monthly. Any dog I take into my care will need to be utd on distemper/Parvo and rabies vaccines at a minimum. No UNspayed females. UNneutered males will be a case by case basis. They will also need to be on flea and tick preventatives as well. Preferably oral. Over the counter topicals don’t work well.
About: I have been a dog lover since I was young, my dad was a breeder/trainer of labradors for field trials. I have experience with training and handling of many kinds of dogs. Last summer our family said goodbye to our two dogs (a lab and a miniature dachshund) and in December we added a new mini dachshund to our house! I still have plenty of time (and energy!) to help out other pet “parents”. I will give your pets all the love they need!! I am mature, responsible and love being active! My profile might be a little confusing since I spend summer months in Minnesota, winter in Florida and “shoulder seasons” in western New York but I love staying busy no matter where I am!! I am currently not working in a structured job so will have a very flexible schedule. I can make most times work on both weekdays and weekends! At this time I am not able to care for pets in my home—will be happy to take care of your dogs at your home.
“Melissa was fantastic to work with! She was able to gain so much tryst from my cat, Sapphire, who is very shy and scared of people she doesn't know. She even went above and beyond to get my cat out of a small crawl space in our attic so she could get her medicine! Thank you so much Melissa!”
“Jodi was fabulous! We took the dogs on a short walk during our “meet and greet” and she asked many questions making sure the dogs’ needs were met. Communication was excellent and she took our dogs for a wonderful walk while in her care. We will use her again and highly recommend her services.”
About: I have been surrounded by dogs my whole life and now have a german shepherd and blue heeler of my own that keeps life exciting with play and training. I am currently working part time from home so I have plenty of time to care for others pets and am available most days for care such as dog walking, pop-ins, or all day care! I have my own fur babies, a gentle giant german shepherd and a blue heeler and do training with them daily. We have 40 acres so they get plenty of exercise and play time. I keep many different toys and treats in the home for rewards! I am a animal lover and treat my pets like my kids!
About: As a lifelong animal lover who has cared for everything from birds and fish to dogs and cats since childhood, I understand how important it is for your pets to feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. Currently a pet parent myself and working professional, I bring both personal experience and reliability to your pet's care. My time volunteering at animal shelters has given me hands-on experience with different animal personalities and needs. I know how crucial it is to trust that your pets are receiving attentive, loving care while you're away, which is why I offer dedicated drop-in services that keep your furry (or feathered!) family members happy at home. I'm a teacher, so weekdays the availability for drop-ins would be in the morning, after school and in the evening. On weekends I am available for morning, afternoon and evening. I am a teacher in our local school district and consider myself very trustworthy. I understand there is a high level of trust needed to allow someone to drop into your home and care for your pets. As a pet parent I also understand the need to have a reliable sitter, rather than use a kennel. I hope I can fill that role for your family:)
“I am so thankful I found Amy to do drop in visits for my cat Frankie. She is a great communicator, knowledgeable, and kind. I know I don’t have to worry about Frankie when Amy is caring for her and that is what I look for in a pet sitter! Thanks Amy!! I highly recommend Amy and will reach out to her with future needs!”

Lauri G.
“Lauri is amazing! She’s super friendly and so great with dogs. From the start, you can tell she’s got tons of experience and really loves being around them— she was quick to answer any questions and responded to my request fast! She also sent me cute pictures throughout the stay, which I really appreciated. It’s obvious she genuinely enjoys getting to spend time with pups, and you can feel the love and care she puts into watching them— I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog with her, and I know my dog had the best time too. Highly recommend!”

Jenkins cat parents share their Rover experiences
Grace was kind and generous with our cat Patches. He appreciated the extra pets and human contact while his favorite person was away. Being able to stay in his home to look out his favorite window and sit on his favorite blanket has been a nice change from his traditional boarding. The stay home option would not be available without our cat sitter! We appreciate you, Grace!
