About: As a lifelong dog lover and proud pet parent, caring for animals is truly one of my greatest joys. I currently share my home with two lovable pups, and I’m also a proud grandparent to three grand-doggies and one grand-kitten—yes, it's a full and furry family! With years of personal experience and a genuine passion for animals, I bring both heart and hands-on knowledge to every walk and pet check-in. I’ve cared for pets of all ages, including senior dogs needing a little extra love—whether it’s administering medications, helping with mobility, or just providing that gentle, loving presence they deserve. Before diving into pet care full-time, I was an elementary school teacher, which means patience, responsibility, and attention to detail are second nature to me. You can count on me to treat your pets like my own—with kindness, care, and lots of tail wags! Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family! Currently, I am available for drop ins and walks two times per day. This summer, my schedule is far more open and could easily fit additional times, as needed. I would follow whatever directions/guidelines are provided for me so that your pet(s) routines are kept as close to what they are used to as possible.
“Valarie stepped in and really helped out when I needed a last minute change. I appreciated her approach to my elderly chihuahua and my dog really liked her.”
“Rachel did a great job checking in on our 2 large dogs while we were away. We found her to be very responsible, knowledgeable about care, and very friendly and our dogs really took to her. We highly recommend her and would use her again in the future for sure!”
“Leslie was so wonderful to my babies. I cannot praise her enough! She helped me when I was in a bind which will not be forgotten. She took pictures of her playing with them with frequent updates, as well. She is definitely worth 5 stars. If there was 6 stars, she would get them!”
“wonderful job once again. Second time I’ve used Alyssa and my cat Max has already started accepting her. He is normallyquite picky and usually afraid of everyone.”
“Jesus was super friendly and our pups took to him right away. I received pictures daily and came back to 2 happy and safe dogs! Thank you Jesus will definitely see you again soon!”
“David did a great job with my cat. She tends to get lonely when we travel, and she warmed up to David right away. I appreciate his attention to detail regarding the instructions that I left.”
“Sarah did a great job with taking care of my pets. She followed all the instructions and really cared for them. She is dependable and very caring. So glad she is a rover for me and my pets!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life — from playful puppies to older dogs who need extra patience and care. I’m confident handling big breeds, and I know how to read animal body language to keep them safe, happy, and relaxed. What sets me apart is how much I truly pay attention to each pet’s needs. Whether your dog needs extra playtime, a slow walk, or just some quiet cuddle time, I adjust to them. I also make sure to keep you updated with regular pics and messages so you know your pet is in good hands. If your pup has special needs, anxiety, or is still learning — I’ve got you. I’m calm, reliable, and treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I work part-time Thursday through Sunday from 11 AM to 4 PM. Outside of those hours, I’m available for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. My schedule allows me to give pets lots of attention before and after work, and I’m fully available on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. When caring for pets in your home, I treat it with the same respect I’d want for mine. I follow your pet’s routine closely — from feeding and walks to crate time or medications if needed. I always keep a close eye on pets, making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and stress-free. I also send regular updates so you know exactly how your pet is doing. If your dog is staying with me, they’ll be in a calm, clean, and loving environment with plenty of space to relax and feel at home. Safety is always my top priority.
“Joel was great with our cats. He even got our shy one to stick around and not hide in the bathroom. And he gave us a heads up about an exterior leak after it rained.”
About: My name is Kevin, I have been a dog lover since before I could speak. I am 24 and grew up in Taylor Ranch where I rescued more dogs than I could count. I am new to this specific site but not new to pet sitting. I have multiple locations, with or without other dogs. I am very excited to be able to take care of /play with/ and train dogs part time. Happy to answer any questions!
