About: I’ve dog sat for a number of families and their furbabies over the years. I grew up with a rescue border collie and lived with a belgian shepherd (a former roommate’s pet) so I am experienced with high energy breeds. If scheduled far enough ahead of time, my work is incredibly flexible so I can work from home whenever required for about a week. Longer pet sittings I would need clearance from work. Otherwise I an able to do walks in the morning (6am) before I go to the office and can leave early for a walk around (12pm) to then remain home with your pet for play and more frequent walks the second half of the day. I have an apartment that has a dog park within walking distance. My apartment has a balcony and your pet will never be out there unsupervised or unleashed.

About: I absolutely love caring for people's pets. I'm a lifelong dog mom and I live a very active lifestyle with my black lab Finnegan. He's very friendly with other dogs (big and small)! He loves sharing his toys, his couch, just not so lunch his kibble. We love going for walks and tossing the ball around. Cuddle time is also a very important activity at the end of the day. Your family members will come home tired from playing and happy with their experience. I have been through dog obedience training with my dog Finnegan and have owned dogs my whole life. We look forward to hosting your fur babies! I’m currently a student and work from home most days of the week so I have a lot of time to flex between breaks and spending time with your fur baby! I always feed pets separately so that there is no room for conflict. I also am a seasoned professional and U.S. Marine. I provide a clean and safe environment, and I don’t have children or other small animals in the house.

Patricia was such a great cat sitter! I’m so thankful for her services; she sent me so many pictures and videos that I appreciated during my time away. When I got back home, everything was tidy and the water bowls were full - I knew my cats were in great hands. She gave me such a great first experience with Rover and I look forward to working with her again.

About: I am a young man who has had animals all my life, both dogs and cats, and I had the opportunity to live in New York and work in a pet store called Pupculture, in this store game experience in areas such as: daycare, boarding and dog walker, a job that I hope to continue doing wherever I go Although I am a young man who studies, trains and works, there is always room for time with pets. The most important thing is to clarify the availability and trust between the two, so that we can see each other again How I've had pets before what it's like to treat them at home, I know they like to play and a lot of attention, talk to them, play to them, feed them and they will be grateful, I know how to walk with them outside, I know how to take a big dog a small one, if it's very cold if it rains or it's hot, always treat your pets how you would like them to treat yours

About: I have had a dog in my home since I was born. I was tasked with walking, feeding, and playing with the family dogs as a kid and I always enjoyed seeing their tails wag with joy. I have loved and cared for many dogs some big, some small, some calm and some energetic. I currently live with my 5 year old Sheepadoodle named Nash who is big enough to pay bills and takes up my entire king sized bed. I have had him since he was just a few weeks old and I understand the importance of proper care and attention. I am a shift worker who works longer hours in condensed days. This schedule allows me to have many days off both during the week and weekend to provide your pet with the care he/she deserves. My beautiful girlfriend is also a dog lover who can assist whenever needed. Pets are part of the family. They will have access to a fully fenced in yard, a swim in the pool (if allowed), lots of potty breaks and plenty of fresh food and water. They will have many friends to play with, both human and canine.

James was very attentive to all of our pups needs. He was also very flexible as some of our plans had changed on the fly. He was patient (Cash can be skittish) and made sure he was well taken care of. We would recommend James for any pet care needs!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for 10+ years! Typically just family and friends/roommates. I recently got a little senior girl of my own (Gracie, pictured with me, the love of my life). I’m a total millennial dog parent…she is my child. So no amount of special care instructions/quirks will scare me off, their quirks are what make them so unique and loveable! I have a very odd schedule - I’m a flight instructor which is kind of part time kind of full time. I’m definitely a good ask last minute/same day as the weather dictates a lot of my schedule! But I have plenty of time for you little ones! As I said, my little one is my baby and an absolute princess (she gets anything she wants…she’s an old lady after all!) Anywhere I go she goes and the same would go for your baby! We can do a long walk together, short, hang out on your couch for a bit and just do a potty break, whatever they need!

Ruth is the best. She is so reliable and good with our cats. I feel comfortable with having her do the difficult things like medication to giving them love while we’re away. And I love seeing the pictures.

It was a pleasure to have Nicholas take care of our dog, Axle. During our leave, he visited Axle at home, played with him and walked him daily. Nicholas is very professional and respectful. We definitely recommend him and look forward to having him watch Axle again in the future.
