About: My family is always traveling and have relied on me for their mini furry loved one. I love taking dogs on walks and if not walks, laying by their side, or playing along with them, doing what they want to do. I have much time currently, so I will be able to take care of your pups however you need! I am available mainly weekdays at what ever time you are wanting. I always make sure your pets are comfortable where they are at. If you have any preferences, for example if you are wanting your pet to be crated, I would gladly make them feel safe no matter what.
About: I have had dogs as family for over 20+ years. From puppy to senior they have all been loved well. Your dogs will be well cared for with me. I am a stay at home mom, homeschooling my child. There will be plenty of time for walks, play, snuggles, and scratches. I would love to help my community this way by providing a safe caring place for your furry friends to stay while your away. I have a fenced in yard for them to run. I have two dogs of my own for them to play with, they are very friendly. We can crate and separate dogs if needed as well.
“Gus came home exhausted! He came home just as he was dropped off. Her kids hugged on Gus before we left which can only make me think they loved on him and treated him as their own. This was our first use of Rover and we will more than likely use it again. Gus hasn’t ever really been around other dogs and she allowed him to adjust and said he did great with them. Highly recommend and will use her again in the future.”
“We rebooked with Shania because she did such a great job of taking care of our boy while we were gone the first time. We didn’t want anyone else watching him!”
“AJ was wonderful with Lady! He kept me updated and sent lots of pictures. When Lady got sick he contacted us right away and was able to adjust her food type. He was also flexible when we needed to add a night. We would 100% use his services again.”
About: I'm Steve and I have my own very well behaved 5 year old chocolate lab named Beanie. I am new to Rover, but have references from friends that I have pet sat, watched and walked. I'm pretty flexible at the moment, but do occasionally have conflicting doctor appointments. I can come to your house for walks, feedings but cannot stay the night. I have a fenced yard, pet door to the back yard, a sweet chocolate lab, a helpful mother and a good neighborhood. Call me and see if we're a good fit!
“She is amazing! She wrote everyday with pictures and videos. My puppy had so much fun he almost didn’t want to leave! I will most definitely be using her services again.”
About: Dog lover at heart. I will treat those bundles of fur like they're my children 😍 they weren't lying when they were nicknamed man's best friend. I work full time, but I'm available evenings and weekends! I am pretty flexible and can go there or watch them at my house. I have a big house and fenced in yard. I have a crate, if you prefer crating at night. Otherwise they will have run of the house with lots of beds and blankets and toys!
“Lauren was an outstanding pet sitter! She took care of my two large dogs while I was away, and they had a great time while at her house. I could tell that Lauren treated my dogs just like family. When I arrived to pick them up, they were enjoying their stay with Lauren. In fact, Even though they were excited to see me when I returned, they seemed perfectly content at Laurens house. I would highly recommend Lauren for your pet sitting needs. I will definitely be sending my dogs back for another stay with Lauren!??”
