“Kiersten is absolutely amazing with our doggie! She is so patient with her, doesn’t mind her crazy energy, and is a great reinforcement during this period of training her. I would absolutely recommend her and trust her with anyone’s dog!”
“Julie was really easy to work with, I had a last minute need for a drop-in and she accepted the request right away and was able to come for a meet and greet that day! She came prepared, taking notes and asking thoughtful questions, showing her willingness to ensure the safety and comfort of my pets.

About: I have had dogs my entire life. Have helped with the care and training for them throughout my life. For the last 10 years I have taken care of the neighbors and friend’s dogs. Very versatile with the breeds of dogs that I have been able to take of. I also have worked at a ranch for the past two summers and have taken care of the horses at the ranch. I am currently working as a ski instructor at Alyeska ski resort. The work day typically means that I am out of the house at 8:00-8:30 and back at around 5:00. I have done both dog sitting and house sitting the past 10 years. Any plant or house needs can be accommodated along with any pet care that is needed.
About: I have been taking care of animals ever since I could remember, from goats and horses to dogs and cats! I tailor myself towards the pup’s every level whether that be high-energy or a couch potato with many cuddles:) I love playing with cats or getting the loving cuddles from them! I have three of my own so cleaning litter boxes is a daily norm for me haha I am currently getting a masters degree in social work as a full time student. I have flexible time to care for your four-legged children around school! I care for pets in the comfort of their own home. I know how important it is for pups to feel safe and comfortable especially when loved ones are away. I strive to provide them with as much love and attention as possible. I ensure your pups feel safe and cared for:)
About: I’ve trained one puppy for the use of the fire department, I’ve dog sat puppies with special needs, preferences, and ones that take a lot of care and attention towards I’m currently working part-time and can soon move to full time, I have many opportunities throughout the day to come and play with doggies during the day! I care for my pets in houses very well, I’m excellent at following instructions for feeding preferences, and walking times that are needed for each dog to feel happy and healthy!
“Dawn was amazing! Our cat was very well cared for and we really appreciated all the updates she sent, we will definitely be booking with Dawn again.”
About: *Administer Medication, Injections, and Fluids *Beautiful walking trails nearby for boarding clients *Big backyard for outdoor play Hello!! My name is Sarah, and I’m a former veterinary technician that can administer medications (including injections and fluids). I’ve also had years of experience with animals from growing up on a cattle ranch- dogs, cats, cattle, horses, and emus! While working at the pet clinic, I assisted the vet with appts and surgeries in addition to providing care to our day and overnight boarders. I love all dogs- big, small, drooly, relaxed, and energetic! I will also come meet you and your dog(s) for free to get to know each other. If you’re booking an overnight stay, please provide food and a favorite toy/bed/blanket. I highly recommend providing food to avoid GI upset, but if you’re unable then I can provide GI sensitive food. Please feel free to contact me at anytime to learn more about me and my love for dogs (including my adorable Murray that’s in my profile photo). Take care and thank you for checking out my Rover profile!
About: I have owned pets for my whole life and love to work with them! I have done quite a bit of pet sitting and and a bit of dog walking even though I am new to Rover. I have worked mostly with neighbors, taking care of pets while they vacation. I have experience with many types of farm animals on top of dogs and cats. Dogs have always been my favorite to work with, plus I love walking, so dog walking is the primary service I offer! I am so excited for the opportunity to meet you and your dog. I am a teacher, which means I have summers almost completely free! I will be available to schedule a few weekend services until the end of the semester as well. During the summer months, I have a part-time job with 4-hour shifts a few days out of the week. Other than this I will be hanging out with your fur baby all the time! I live in an apartment, but I have a balcony and a patio for regular fresh air. My patio opens into an open space for walks. I have a good natured, playful shih tzu who loves other dogs, and who will keep your pup company!
About: For as long as I can remember, animals of all kinds have been part of my life. I’ve had the opportunity to have dogs, cats, ducks, rabbits, and birds. I have been walking and taking care of animals belonging to friends and family for many years, free of charge. I’m at the point to where I want to do what I love most, on a part-time basis, to make some supplemental income. My main goal is to make sure pet parents don’t have to worry about their precious animals when they’re away from them. If you’re on vacation, I want you to relax and enjoy it without worrying about your pet being taken care of. If you’re at work or elsewhere and need someone to drop-in for a walk or a visit, I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to help you and your pets out when needed! I have a full time day job, so my primary hours of availability will be from 4:00-8:00 pm on weekdays, with flexible availability on the weekends and holidays. My care for pets is customizable, based on what is needed. Whether you need your animals to be fed, walked, have medications administered, playtime, or just some time spent with them, I’m happy to do any or all of those things!
