About: I’ve taken care of a variety of animals/pets; from growing up with goats and horses, to dog-sitting and cat-sitting for my neighbors as a pre-teen and into my 20s. I always enjoy bonding and providing quality care for humans’ best friends! I currently work full time (8-3:30pm) M-F, but I live close to my work, so I can be home midday for my lunch break. I have a lot of free time in the afternoon/evening to play and bond with the animals. I also have full availability on the weekends. I do not have any other pets currently at my home, I live in a neighborhood that is close to the park, so we can walk there easily and safely get some exercise!

About: I'll help your pet stay entertained while keeping you connected via pics, videos, and/or video messaging. I have cared for multiple pets throughout the years and have trusted Rover professionals with my own pets in the past. I work full time within city limits and have a flexible work schedule that can be tailored to accommodate most scheduling needs. I enjoy long walks on the beach, trails, etc. I am attentive and prioritize safety in all settings. I have a non fenced back yard within city limits and close to the Carlanna Lake trail.

About: For as long as I can remember, I have always had a special place in my heart for animals - so much so that I have pursued a career in conservation in Alaska! Since I was 10 years old, I have helped raise and care for 5 dogs, one of which lived to be 17 years old. Given my experience taking care of my own fur babies, my neighbors and friends have always been able to rely on me to help care for their beloved companions. Having owned a Rottweiler-Doberman mix myself, I am no stranger when it comes to loving and taking care of larger dogs; however, there is more than enough room in my heart for the small dogs too! I currently have a full time job and a pup of my own; however, I have plenty of time on the weekends to help play and care for your pups! With that in mind, my current lease does not allow me to bring other animals into my home. My philosophy when taking care of other people’s pets is to treat them like I would treat my own. When caring for my own pets, I have learned that positive reinforcement goes a long way, so I always ensure to keep a couple treats in hand for my four legged friends. Since every pet is unique and responds differently to training and care, I strive to treat every pet I care for in a way that works best for them and their owners.

About: Im very honest, hard working person, honest Im doing this because I miss going on walks with my dog I miss my boy Wilson 💙 At the moment I’m not working I am currently looking for a job but in the meantime I’m working on here I’m available probably anytime I would take the dogs out for their potty breaks once the dogs finish up if it’s not a bad day to play outside for a while and while they play, I would clean up after them after they play. Give him some water some food let them play a little bit more and then I would bring them in to the house
