About: I am very passionate about animals! I have 4 fluffy fur legged babies of my own and I know how hard it is to trust someone with them. I treat every anaimal as if it were my own. While in my care I can assure you, your babies will be loved and cared for. For drop in / over night visits: You pup will always be worn out as I don’t believe in 30 min visits while that is what you will pay for. I stay until the pups are ready to rest again. I bring things like puzzles, arts and crafts and chuck it just as a few examples. For boarding at my house: I currently work from home. Your pet will hardly be in a create and will be treated just like one of mine. Many potty breaks throughout the day. I often get on the floor and play so they know I am part of the pack. Toys? Well let’s just say there is not a shortage of toys in the house. Every room we visit has a “toy box”. Treats? No shortage of those here either but, I like to make them earn them - like enforcing commands they already know and rewarding them for going potty. I have almost a half acre with a fully fenced in back yard. Your pet will go out multiple times a day. I also foster and rescue pups so I am very good with socializing new pups with mine. They have previously lived with smaller pups such as a Jack Russell and Yorkie and they loved them to pieces. They also attend “daycare” and “overnight camp” in order to keep them socialized.

I try to anticipate pet's needs and keep them busy and happy. Your pet/pets will be a part of our family for a few days. My teenaged son will assist with your pet's care.

Your pets will have a separate room with or without a crate during any short errands that I may need to run. My teenaged son will assist with the care of your pet/pets. Your pets will have individual attention during part of the day with walks on my quiet neighborhood circle. Feeding time will be individual as well. They will enjoy play with my dog during supervised play time in my fenced back yard.

About: Hi! I’m Lorena, a dependable and caring pet sitter with a lifelong love for dogs. I work from home, so your pet will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I also have 15 years of experience caring for my own Miniature Schnauzer from puppyhood through her senior years, including medication and special care needs. I understand how important it is to feel confident your pet is safe and loved while you’re away. I follow routines closely and provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I look forward to caring for your furry family member! I work from home so Pepper and I will have an extra friend to keep us company during the day. We go outside several times during the day. We do not have a fence, however I take Pepper on walks on the leash very often. Your dog can sleep on its bed, we also have an extra bed.

About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life, haven’t yet met an animal that didn’t like me. I have experience with difficult dogs, nervous and overly excitable fur missiles. I’m willing to work with them as long as I feel safe to do so but im not a trainer, I don’t know how to make them unlearn bad behaviors and learn good ones. Right now I don’t have a regular full time job, I have been searching and applying but no offers as of yet. I have no kids or pets of my own so I’m available at nearly any time, from drop-in visits to overnight sitting. I understand letting a stranger into your home is unsettling, I don’t take it for granted and I’ll do my best to respect your home and pets. I don’t currently have my own home, I live with others so I’m unable to board pets. It tends to be less stress anyways for the pet to stay home where they are in a familiar environment. Unless they have a rigid routine involving sleeping in your bed with you, and won’t go to bed otherwise, I tend to stay on the couch.

I’m currently not working and I have open availability to watch your dog anytime and any day! Best days for me are weekdays and weekends! I live in a dog friendly neighborhood where there are plenty of dog friendly areas to walk your dog. I cant wait to meet them!

About: I am a previous dog owner and have the biggest heart when it comes to animals!! I’m great with bath time and training. I love the outdoors and have no problem spending plenty of time outside running around playing catch! There is a dog park in my neighborhood and plenty of places in the area if the dog isn’t use to other animals. I live 10 minutes from river walk and other great walking trails! I also have a nice size patio for sun bathing. I use to work at a dog kennel so I have experience working with every size dog from a chihuahua to an English mastiff. Keep me in mind for all of your dog walking and over night stays! Thank you!

About: I've never met an animal I didn't like. I know how important it is to find a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter. I am a sucker for animals and have rescued all of mine. Your pet is the best judge of character you need! As a stay at home mom, I have a good amount of availability and flexibility to provide all the care that your pets need! I am very easy going and happy to accommodate. Besides the necessities like food, water and time outside, I believe it is equally important to provide all pets with plenty of attention, playtime, socialization, exercise, walks & love!

About: Our pets are family. Feel at ease with a responsible and reliable veterinary technician caring for your pets 24/7 in the comfort of your own home, or my home. I treat your pets like family, and love them like my own. I have 6+ years experience working as a veterinary technician, and am skilled in administering all types of medication, as well as caring for hospice care patients and animals with special needs. I’ll send you pictures and updates on how your pets are doing while you are away as often as you would like, and I am available to talk at any time. I am happy to stay in your home, keep your animals in my home, or stop in for day visits. Whatever you feel more comfortable with! I have recently gone back to school so I am no longer working full time, which means that your animals will never have to be left alone during the day or crated (unless you prefer them to be). I can adapt my schedule to fit their usual routine and special needs, so that both you and your pet are happy and comfortable in my care.

About: I have been pet owners for years & there’s nothing I love more than spending time with animals. I love to take walks to the dog park & have a good game of fetch. I also take pictures of pets that I taken care of before so let me know if that’s something you would like. I currently work from home so I spend all day with my pets. My job lets me be able to still take my dog on multiple walks a day, have play time, go to the park & more. The play area is fenced in, I can easily crate your dog if needed. In my home I can provide everything your pet needs like if it was their own home and vice versa.

About: I have been a pet owner all of my life and there is a special joy and comfort that only a dog or cat can give us! I think it is important for our pets to get daily exercise to keep them happy and healthy. I'm an avid fitness enthusiast and I love all animals so getting your dog out of the house for daily walks is the perfect fit for both me and your furry friend! It's a great way for your dog to release that playful energy while strengthening their health as well. Playtime is also important in keeping our pets happy and friendly! Getting out and throwing balls, frisbees, sticks, etc is one of my favorite things to do with my own dogs and it's another great form of exercise for your pup! All animals are precious and deserve all the love and care that they can get and I consider it a privilege for me to help you provide that for your furry family member!! I'm currently volunteering part-time which allows me a more flexible schedule which in turn makes it easier to accommodate to the scheduling needs of my Rover clients!! Every one of our beloved pets are different with wonderful, unique personalities of their own! I always offer and recommend a meet and greet to get to know you & your fuzzy friends & vise versa...as well a to taylor each visit to your pet's unique individual needs! (Eg, important medical information, personality quirks or anxites, etc) My goal is to create a dream vacation experience for your furry loved one; Full of playful fun & exercise; cuddles & belly rubs; custom meal plans with your choice of treats & toys to their liking & potty breaks galore! I love & care for each of your furry family members as If they are my own, & as a pet parent myself, I know the importance of having peace of mind by trusting that they are safe and in good hands when you are away! It is my promise that by the end of every visit, walk, overnight stay, etc....that your pet will feel Happy, Healthy, Full, Loved, & worn out from Fun!!!!!

About: I have worked in pet care for 10yrs now! including grooming, corporate pet care and more. I have watched every animal you can think of(horses goats, reptiles, fish, dogs, cats, ducks, chickens, donkeys etc so no animal is out of my comfort zone! I am also cpr, first aid certified with dogs! I do pet sitting around my main commitments, so i can work around specific needs if planned ahead so I’m able to give pets the attention and care they need. I also plan my calendar carefully to avoid overbooking and ensure each pet gets quality time. When I pet sit in someone’s home, I treat their pets and space with the same respect and care I would my own. I follow all feeding, medication, and routine instructions closely to ensure the pets stay healthy and comfortable. I spend quality time playing with them, walking them if needed, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I also keep the home tidy, bring in mail or packages, water plants if requested, and provide regular updates and photos so the owners can relax knowing their pets and home are in good hands.

About: I wholeheartedly cherish and adore pets, as they bring immeasurable joy and companionship into my life. Their unwavering loyalty, affectionate nature, and ability to understand and connect with humans on a profound level make them invaluable members of any family. The unconditional love they provide is unparalleled, and I believe that caring for pets is a truly enriching and rewarding experience, one that brings happiness and fulfillment beyond measure My pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. I ensure regular feeding, exercise, and playtime, as well as grooming and health check-ups.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
