About: Cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes with love and attention, making sure they felt safe, happy, and well looked after. Taking on daily walks, feeding, playtime, and occasional medication. Built great relationships with both pets and their people through communication and care :) I'm currently working part-time 6 hours a day for 3 days a week. I'm flexible with the days; feel free to let me know a week or so in advance! I live in the rural countryside. Which has many grassy areas to play in and beautiful scenery to explore. If I'm visiting your home, I'd love to take your pup on walks and make sure they're happy.


About: I worked for an AKC dog handler since 2011. 10 years grooming and training all sizes. From a Pomeranian to a giant Schnauzer. I have 1 dog and 5 cats. I am a very active person. I have had animals since I was little. To me they are a stress reliever. I can bathe and dry and trim nails and remove lose hair. I try to find things to do or in nature with my animals as much as possible. I'm 45 and my dog is 7. I am offering boarding and day care. I wake up at 7am for the day. Feed at 11am and let dog out as much as every 2-3 hours. I also will do a 30 minute leash walk down the road. I am in the process of getting outside kennels but only once I have clients. Feeding playing with and making sure they are comfy before I leave. I also will text if I have a question about something I don’t know about their pet The picture on my profile is the spot where they’ll be boarded at during night and if your dog and mine don’t mix well your dog will be just have that whole room to himself with baby gates. I spend my day in front room which is only 3 steps away from that room.

About: I've worked as a vet assistant so medications and treatments do not scare me. I have had my own pets my entire life. I can do basic training and work well with pets of all ages.

I have flexibility to work with my animals every day and will do the same with you I will follow your rules to a T. I will make sure your pet has all their needs met. From walks, baths if needed, feeding, training and playing I will do whatever it takes to make your loved ones happy and safe

“Katarinna was absolutely wonderful with Moscow. I really enjoyed her personality and the way she handled Moscow when we did our meet and greet. Moscow is dog reactive which she has experience with, making me feel very comfortable leaving him in her care. She did exactly what I asked her to do and then some! I'm from out a town and she was the only person willing to watch him while I was visiting with some friends. I highly recommend her services and will book again with her if I lived in the area! Thank you Katarinna!”


About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a kid. My experience includes pet sitting, dog walking, and drop in care! I have 3 dogs of my own! Im currently in between two jobs, which provides extra time in my schedule. Good news! This means I can spend time with more dogs! I have loads of availability in my schedule! Im currently only offering dog walking, pet sitting and drop in care due to too many doggos of my own at home 🐶 You can trust me to treat your dog with care and just as I treat my own.

About: I've never not known having a pet! My parents got my first dog 2 days after I was born, and just like in The Secret Life of Pets, we were inseparable! Since then, I have owned several types of species of animals, and ever since I became a dad, my love for animals has grown. All of our friends joke that we run a zoo at our house, but I absolutely love watching the bond between my kids and our pets. We currently have 2 dogs, 2 red-eared sliders, and a hamster. I have experience caring for puppies/kittens, elderly dogs/cats, pregnant dogs/cats, aggressive animals, and animals who need medication administered. I can't wait to love your pet(s) as my own! I'm currently a real estate agent / stay-at-home dad with a very flexible schedule and multiple available sitters with a short notice. Don't be afraid to book last minute! We absolutely believe in the safety for our pets as well as others' pets. My wife and I have been on both ends of the spectrum of having a very obedient, friendly dog, as well as being the owner of a dog that is triggered by unfamiliar faces in human and non-human form! No matter the needs, I will work to achieve them!

About: Hi friends! Me and my husband Chris have been pet sitting together for over 4 years and are currently doing it full time. We are partners in business and ministry and make a great team. We have a large farm with horses, cows, chickens, pigs, dogs and cats. Even with the huge responsibility of caring for our farm we still love housesitting for others and taking care of their animals also. My first job was walking all the dogs in my neighborhood when I was 7 years old and ever since then, it has been my passion to work with animals and make them a part of my daily life. I have had a talent for animal care since I was a child, I just seem to understand them and I’m keen to picking up on their specific needs. I have been grooming my own dogs and also dogs and cats belonging to friends and family for the past 15 years. (I’m older than I look lol) I have also trained dogs of all ages (Taught 5 week old pups to sit - Taught 7 yr old dog new tricks) I am also experienced with senior, diabetic and epileptic dogs. My dog Milo has been having seizures since 2018 and I have found ways to prevent episodes and avoid having him on medication. I have a knack for nursing animals back to health and have treated my dogs for multiple ailments. Currently, my main interest is dog sitting because it is my most inclusive service and offers full care and companionship when you are away from your home. It also gives me a chance to work with your dog if you would like me to include training or grooming. I also offer cleaning services which include laundry, dishes, sweeping, mopping, kitchen and bathroom upkeep. Please message me for more information. I look forward to meeting and caring for your fur family! The majority of my time is dedicated to pet care and my schedule is open most days. Please request your bookings at least 3 days advance, if possible, in order for me to maintain my availability. My cancellation policy for house sitting is 1 week prior to the service date so that I’m able book another pet if I need to. Thank you! I prefer to stay full time when you are away from home, only leaving to take short trips to the grocery store. I feel that it is in the best interest of the pets and your home to offer full supervision for their safety and companionship and for your peace of mind. I make sure to let them have as much play time as possible, cuddle time, belly rubs, and all of my love! I like to send photos so being away is a little bit easier for you and your family. I will treat your babies like they are my babies!

“Jamie is amazing! We have a new puppy and she is need of some TLC while we are at work! We just moved to Urbana and we feel we hit the jackpot with Jamie as our dog walker and pet sitter when we go out of town! I know she loves animals and will take great care!”


About: I have 16 years of experience with many types of dogs. I have owned 6 dogs in my life, which 4 were trained and taken care of by me. I worked as a dog sitter, trainer and groomer at the K9 Co and Paw Perfections. I am very active and big into fitness so I offer your dog real exercise and a great play time. I am very patient and caring with animals. I work at the hospital. I am a medical lab technician, so 5 out of the 7 days of the week im on day shift 7am to 4pm. (I will try to keep schedule up to date with work schedule. I am a traveling medical lab scientist. I will be available mostly any day my schedule is open. Please ask even if the day is marked unavailable. Sometimes i may have opening after work. In the simplest way i can word this, I treat pets like they are my own, like family. I take extra consideration to temperament, age, diet, and emotions of the pet. Our furry friends will show you signs for the trained eye, and sometimes right out tell you their needs.

About: I've taken care of many stray kittens as a kid and my own pets as well (both dogs and cats). I know how important quality care is. Currently I am unemployed- So this leaves me plenty of time to give quality care to your furry friend. I have dependable transportation to be there for your pet. With more weary pets I tend to just be there to fulfill their needs and be present in the house. However with pets that are friendly with strangers, I'm more than happy to give them all of the attention they want!

About: I have always grown up with dogs in my house and have experience working with other livestock animals my whole life. I worked at an animal shelter my entire high school career where I have taken care of dogs of all sizes (fed, watered, cleaned up after, played with, bathed, groomed, trained, etc.) as well as administered medications and vaccines. I recently started working as a veterinary assistant where I have expanded my pet health skills and am able to rightfully care for your pet and notice any strange or indifferent behavior right away! Though I am not a professional trainer, I do have some training experience from my time at the animal shelter and with my own personal animals as well! I love all animals as if they are my own :) I currently work full time, but I am off sporadically throughout the week and available every Friday as well as mid-day on weekends to help watch after, care for or walk your furry family member! I am able to do anything your pet(s) need throughout the day including feeding, giving medications, taking out for potty breaks and going on walks!

About: Hi, I’m Katelyn! A little about me - I’m a wife, mom of 3, and of course an avid animal lover which is what led me to Rover. I have experience with small to large breeds and from puppies to seniors. I live on two acres of land, however none of it is fenced in so pets that are in my care will be leashed during any and all outdoor time. My home is very clean and well kept! My schedule is open and flexible. I am reliable, experienced, and pay close attention to detail. So please, feel free to give me any and all details that I will need to make sure that your fur baby is happy, accommodated, and comfortable. Pets in my care mostly have free range of the house when they are with me. Crated only if I need to leave. Potty breaks are given as often as they’re needed. I will watch for their ques and also take them out often. I send daily updates with pictures/videos so that pet parents are always informed on how their pets are doing during their time with me. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to me.

About: Hi, my name is Liz and I have been working in the animal industry/veterinary field for 4 years now. I have worked as a kennel tech, veterinary technician, veterinary assistant, and receptionist in this time frame. I know doggie-CPR for both small and large dogs, I graduated from Miami-Jacobs Career Collage in early December of 2014, with my Associate's Degree in Veterinary Technology. I love all animals of all different shapes and sizes. I grew up in a small town in Ohio and moved to Colorado in late December in 2014. I have one dog of my own, a Border Collie named Gypsy, because of her reaction to them I an unable to watch any male dog. Sorry. I currently have a part time job and have plenty of time for drop-in and dog walks on the three days off that I have. I am a certified CPDT-KSA (Certified Professional Dog Trainer - Knowledge and Skills Assessed), as well as a Certification under AWDC (America Working Dog Council) both under balanced training techniques used by famous trainers such as Michael Ellis & Tom Davis. I am able to a wide range of tools, to give similar results.
