About: I have pet sit dogs and cats many times for my family. Pets have always been a part of my family, mostly dogs and also sometimes cats. Also at one point an aquarium of fish. Currently I do not have any pets of my own because they are not allowed in the rental lease. I also know of some of the natural area trails and parks in the nearby area that would be good to take dogs for a walk at. My current schedule for pet care can be fit to a wide range of times most days. Other current work activities are mainly involving the start of a small farm type business and volunteer work. I make sure that safety is always a priority and taken into account, one of the main areas of focus being to keep any doors monitored and closed so that a pet does not go outside by accident. Also keeping awareness of any food or other objects in a client's home that a pet could get to by accident.

“Lou is great. He's flexible and is great with my big Malamute and Bernese. I work long shifts every once in a while and I have no doubt that they'll be fine while I'm at work when Lou comes over to take them for a walk.”

“Very reliable! Alisha always lets me know well in advance if she’s traveling and communicates very well. She’s great with all of my pets. My dog is one who has to warm up to people.”

“Marissa helped out with some dog walking for me while I was away. She was excellent with my pup and flexible with my schedule and coordinated with my housesitter which was much appreciated. Recommended!”

About: Since my first job pet-sitting dogs at 9, I've loved caring for and hanging out with animals. I've worked with animals of all ages, sizes, and species, including litters of husky puppies, guinea pigs, and full-sized pigs. The internship I'm currently working is part-time, so my schedule has a lot of flexibility. I am free Friday through Mondays as well as Tuesday-Thursday after 4pm. I'm available and happy to care for your pet in whatever capacity is most helpful, whether that be bathroom breaks, walking, or house-sitting. My only limitation is boarding, as my apartment is pet-free.

About: I am a professional dog groomer and have been working with dogs of all ages and temperaments. I have senior care experience and experience with training puppies the basics. Being a pet groomer I’ve made pet care my career. Every morning before work I take my own pet for a small walk and to potty before breakfast. Most days your pet will come with me to work to hangout with me and other pets unless requested otherwise. Potty breaks will be given as needed. Dinner will be given around l 530pm at 630 we will go for a walk typically half a mile then come home for free play and to settle in for the night. I have a dog of my own named Goose that would love to keep your pet company if they are interested. We will go on a walk in the afternoon and have enrichment time. I can easily crate your dog if needed or go over any training you might be working on.

“She is super communicative and reliable and great with our dog! Highly recommend!”

“Marian took great care of our Bruno. He was surprisingly welcoming and warmed up to her quick. She also stopped by with her children and they were very respectful with him”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was born. Whether it was the family dog or one of my own, they've always been a part of my world. Numerous friends have asked me to dog sit for them, or even provide kitty playtime when they are out of town. I have experience with senior dogs and animals that require medication or special needs. Every pet is different, and I am committed to making sure they each receive the specific love and care they deserve. I currently work full time as an assistant manager of a local hotel, but will be providing pet care on my days off which are Tuesday and Wednesday, as well as after work which usually ends around 6pm. Safety is a high priority when it comes to our loved ones. When I am around dogs and cats, I am always reading body language and taking my cues from them. I believe in making sure every adventure we go on together is safe and controlled. I am attentive, professional, and flexible if the situation calls for it.

About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages, breeds and sizes since I was in 5th grade and had a rescue of my own. I have been a puppy raiser for Guide Dogs For The Blind since 2021 and have raised 3-4 puppies. I am an animal science enthusiast and love getting to know each animal. I have experience with dog training and socializing, medication administration, dog walking (any breed), animal handling and much more. I would love to work with you and your pets to make your Rover experience as smooth and good as possible. I am currently a college student and hope to become a dog trainer or something like that someday. I will have plenty of time to work with you and make your pet’s experience with great. I am willing to work with you on scheduling however needed. I am a very observant person and good at seeing how an animal is feeling and how to handle their preferences. I will keep your house and whatever I use clean and in as good of shape as I found it or better.

About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting and had my own dog for many years. Now, I have experience from drop-in visits to extended overnight stays, with many different types of needs. I’m dedicated to caring for a pet the same way their owner would and look forward to spending time with animals. I work from home most days and can accommodate a flexible potty schedule and activity level. I enjoy taking breaks to spend with pets, to get outside or tuck in on the sofa! I have an enclosed garden and large, unfenced yard. We are well back from the main road so pets are welcome to explore the neighborhood.

“Holly did a wonderful job with our dog. She came when promised and Daisy clearly enjoyed being with her. We would love to have Holly spend time with our pets again!”

“Allison was very flexible and responsive. She came over to meet my pup ahead of time, even though I had booked at the last minute. My dog loved her immediately!”

About: My experience taking care of dogs goes back to my childhood. When I was 8 we got a new puppy and from that moment on I have been obsessed. From taking care of newborn puppies and experiencing the birthing process to helping my senior dogs find comfort in their final days, I have seen it all. I learned a lot of what I know from firsthand experience but also from reading many books of dog behavior and from being taught training techniques from a close family friend and dog trainer. Nothing makes me happier than a dog and nothing makes my dog happier than being with other dogs! I hope to ease the stress that can come from managing life and wanting the best for your pup by providing a safe space for them to have fun! I am currently a student at University and my schedule takes me away from the home for 6 hours a day 5 days a week. I am always providing enrichment activities for my dog while I am away from the house and we go on a long walk when I return. I have a big yard that is partially wooded for the dogs to play around in, whether your dog is good off leash or not. I have a run for my dog that he stays on when outside in the yard but he usually sticks with me so he’s not always attached. In the home are multiple dog beds and comfy places for the pups to rest after a long day. There is always access to water, inside and out. My dog is very easy going so we are willing to be adaptable on a pet to pet basis.

“The sweetest family! Hannah was so patience with my Indy - she could read him so well, very knowledgeable on dog behavior. I joined the first walk to see how Indy would do with her 2 beautiful and sweet pups, because he can be reactive at first but Hannah quickly assessed the situation, guiding her dogs throughout the walk to where Indy was comfortable. I can’t express enough how lucky we feel to have met her family!!”

About: When I was 8 years old, I started my own pet sitting business in the neighborhood. I made my own business cards and handed them out to all my neighbors. I’ve taken care of many neighborhood dogs and cats over the years, and have been a trusted source to call upon since I was a young girl. Growing up, I attended summer camps at the local humane society to be near animals, and at the age of 16 began volunteering. At the age of 13, my puppy charlie was brought into the family alongside my cat, so I’ve had personal hands-on experience caring for pets of my own through the years! I also love to be active; alongside my enthusiasm for going on walks, I also love to run and go on hikes; if you feel comfortable entrusting me with your furry family member, I would love to take your dog on adventures of their own (easy jogs/walks, hikes) to make sure they get plenty of exercise while you’re away! This way your dog gets a little staycation of their own :) I teach piano lessons alongside working part time, so I’m typically not away from home for crazy long! I have an abundance of time and energy to care for your pet. It is of the utmost importance for me to be respectful in your home. I will do everything in my power to ensure that you feel comfortable with me in your personal space, and will respect any/all boundaries. Leaving your pet with another person is scary! The last thing I want is for you to spend your time away feeling overly stressed about the care your pet and your home is receiving. I will send you daily updates on your pet, and will also ensure I’m clean, tidy, and leave your home looking even better than you left it!

About: I've taken care of animals my entire life. We currently have a dog, cat, bearded dragon and two frogs. Our animals are part of the family and are treated that way. I currently provide walking services for another family in our community. At this time I am available daytime and early evening care. I can visit, feed and walk or play with your dog or cat. If you have a dog, I might bring Rocco along for a walk once I get to know them. Also, day and overnight care may be available once I get to know your animal. For now care is at your place where I can play and or take them for a walk on a leash. Depending on where you live, we could go for a drive too.

“Colby did great with our Basset Hound, Muffin. They both seemed to enjoy each other immediately. They went for a nice walk, and Muffin offered Colby many kisses afterwards as a thank you. Colby seemed to handle Muffin's little antics quite well, and they parted as new friends. Thank you, Colby!”

About: I am looking for some regular clients for weekly walking or hikes! I am an outdoors woman who loves all animals! I will enjoy taking your pets on hikes through the endless trails that surround us. All terrain, all weather! I’ve had cats and dogs all my life, I’ve taken care of many family pets for neighbors and friends through out the years. I’ve learned how to listen and read what the animas are saying, to make sure they are happy and content. I am also able to adapt my energy to the unique energy of each pet I am caring for. I love pet snuggles and yes I will talk to them like a crazy lady. I will always be on time and I drive a hatchback with the seats kept down perfect for doggie transport. I have a couple days off from my full time job and would like to have some fur buddies to take on hikes when their owners aren’t able. With respect and attention to the individual routines and preferences! Most of the time I enter through a designated door and put the collar and leash on inside.
