Very accommodating when I needed to cancel day of because one of my dogs started to get sick the night before. Also went above and beyond to come over early before I needed to get to work to show me how a gentle-lead works and see how my dog would react to having it on.

I could tell from the pictures that my Aussie, who can be a little nervous and tentative with new people, was comfortable and happy with Eric. I recommend his services 100%!

About: Home away from home care for your pet when you are out of town or just need a staycation. Plenty of room to play indoors and outdoors in our fenced in backyard. Flexible drop off and pickup hours. Lots of hugs and love to make your four legged child feel like he or she is at home while you are away. Keep your pet on their normal schedule. Personalized care for your pet. Check in at any time to see how your pet is doing and receive daily text and video updates of your pet. I would love to host your pet in our home or drop in to your home to care for your pet. Please do not hesitate to text or email me with questions on pet boarding and sitting options that I provide. My weekly schedule is flexible, so I am able to give your pet much time and attention during the week and on weekends when they stay in my home. My partner, who also has over 20 years of experience caring for dogs, works with me to care for your pet. We alternate times during the day to care for your pet so that he/she has full time care and each of us has time to tend to other duties. We ensure that dogs and puppies in our home are supervised at all times. We allow each adult pet the space to roam freely and close off any rooms or areas we want restricted. With puppies, we restrict them to the room where we are as we like to closely monitor the babies. If we have multiple dogs/puppies in the home during your pets visit, feeding and potty breaks are done separately. We may crate or restrict a pets access to roam if we are receiving another guest pet or person 🙂 or if we have to run out of the home to run an errand. We try and follow your indicated pets schedule as closely as possible. You can assured that your pet will receive lots of love and attention while in our home.

About: I got my first dog at age 14 and the condition was that I provide all of the care and train her. Many friends and neighbors call on me to care for their pups and I’ve even done a three month stent caring for two senior dogs. 16 years ago I got my first cat and now here I am with four of them. I also have a leopard gecko and I’m learning a lot more about reptile care. I am currently off for this summer and have complete open availability to walk, play with, and starve your babies with attention. I am delighted at the opportunity! I do not offer care in my own home, but I am happy to provide care in yours as my husband can care for our animals without me present. I will follow whatever routines and expectations needed for your pet.

Siri is great! We did a meet and greet ahead of time and from the moment my dog met her, it was easy to see she understands and cares for animals. My dog can be shy with new people, but Siri has this calm confidence, and they connected immediately. Every walk was on time, with detailed updates and photos that gave me peace of mind knowing he was getting good care and happy. It’s good day when you find someone who treats your pet like their own, Siri is one of those special people. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and competent person to care for your pet.

About: As a rising third-year veterinary student at the University of Illinois, I bring both professional training and genuine love for animals to every pet I care for. Through my veterinary education and hands-on clinical experience, I have worked with animals of many breeds, sizes, ages, energy levels, and temperaments—including shy, anxious, high-energy, and senior pets. My experience has taught me how to safely handle animals, recognize signs of stress or illness, and adapt my approach to each pet’s individual personality and needs. Whether your pet loves playtime and attention or prefers a calmer, quieter environment, I strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and have experience with feeding routines, medications, and providing patient, attentive care. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone dependable, communicative, and trustworthy, and I take that responsibility seriously. I will care for your pet as if they were my own and keep you updated so you can feel confident they are in good hands. My schedule is very flexible this summer! I am currently working part-time and participating in some veterinary shadowing experiences, but outside of that I have wide availability for pet care. I am available most weekends and have flexibility throughout the week, especially during mornings and evenings. I’m happy to work with owners to find times that best fit their pet’s routine and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. As a veterinary student, I have experience recognizing signs of stress, illness, and discomfort in animals and understand the importance of careful, attentive care. I strive to create a calm and positive environment for every pet while respecting their normal routines and boundaries. I know how important trust is when someone else is caring for your pet, so I will always communicate clearly, provide updates, and treat your pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or needs extra patience, I am committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I have always grown up around dogs and have a puppy currently! We take walks everyday and I spend generous amounts of time outside playing. I enjoy being around dogs especially and love to play and give them plenty of love! I currently have a part time job and am a student in college. However, I will have plenty of time for your puppy. I’m available during the week and weekends, but this may vary. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for playing and zoomies!

About: I've shared my life with dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, and caring for animals has always been one of the greatest joys in my life. Growing up, I had a shy Chow Chow and a mischievous Cocker Spaniel named Nigel who kept life interesting. As an adult, I raised a Golden Retriever from puppyhood through his senior years. His favorite daily adventure was racing to the mailbox. I also had the pleasure of caring for an English Mastiff for five years whose personality was every bit as big as he was. Most unexpectedly, I rescued the love of my life on a dreary Friday afternoon at work, and my heart has been firmly claimed by rescue dogs ever since. My experience includes puppies, senior dogs, and pets who need a little extra patience, attention, or specialized care. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I've also cared for multiple cats throughout my life, from energetic kittens to senior companions. I've lived with both short- and long-haired cats, as well as cats ranging from outgoing social butterflies to those who prefer to take their time warming up to new people. I'm on Rover because I genuinely love animals, and I know life gets busy. Whether you're working long hours, traveling, or simply juggling everything life throws your way, your pet still deserves attention, affection, exercise, and consistency. My goal is to be that reliable person you can trust to care for them when you can't be there. I have a flexible schedule and will do my best to accommodate your pet's needs and routine. Whether that's an early morning walk, a midday check-in, evening companionship, or extra visits while you're away, I'm happy to work with you to create a schedule that helps both you and your pet feel comfortable. Whether your pet is looking for a walking buddy, a playmate, a cuddle companion, or simply someone dependable to keep their routine on track, I'll care for them the way I'd want someone to care for my own, with patience, kindness, and lots of love. Pet care is a consistent and flexible part of my weekly routine. I maintain availability throughout the week, including weekends and select holidays, and I structure my schedule to provide calm, attentive, and reliable care. I also do my best to accommodate same-day requests when possible. I prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and consistent with their normal routines. I am comfortable walking dogs on leash using either a harness or collar, and I also utilize fenced-in yards when available. I follow each pet’s specific care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and behavioral preferences. I am also comfortable with crate training and crating when needed, as I’ve used crates with my own pets. In a client’s home, I treat the space with respect and maintain a calm, clean, and structured environment so pets feel secure and at ease.

About: Hello, I have a good amount of experience with both dogs and cats. With dogs I have had them around my whole life my parents had me taking care of them as soon as I could I have worked with dogs of all ages, 8 months to the more matured 15 years. with cats I also have a good range some as young as 4 months to as old as you can imagine. For dogs I love taking them for walks, or just hanging out. With cats they usually entertain themselves with what ever I am doing. I am volunteering at an animal shelter so I have plenty of time to hang out with your best buds! I am currently a student at the University of Cincinnati my aqueduct runs from 10:00 am- 3:00pm and other than that my time is committed to your pet The most resent dogs that I had one was 15 years old and she would mostly lay in the sun all day she would wake up at 6 a.m. and I would pick her up and immediately take her outside and then feed her. The other one was about 1 year old and she would sleep down stairs because if she did not she would eat everything upstairs. She would get up around the same time, sometimes she would get up earlier than that and have to go potty and I would get up then and let her out. I would feed her at the same time. After the older was finished eating she would go back outside for just a little bit with my other dog and then I would taker her back upstairs and she would usually sleep the day away. The puppy however we would play just a little bit outside and then she would get sleepy and go to sleep for a little. This is the time I took to get the house cleaned up a little after she would wake up I would let both of the dogs out. When the puppy got a little older she would just follow me around the house, she liked to cook with me, we would go for walks or rides together. Once it was time for dinner I would feed them both take them both out and then the puppy would play more until she got tired and we got ready for bed. For cats he would wake me up around 6 to get fed breakfast and they he would go on about his business, following me around when he wanted to, he also enjoyed to cook. Sometimes he enjoyed playing but he really entertained himself. I would feed him around 6 pm and then we would go to sleep together.

Daniel was fantastic! He stepped in at the last minute to help me out with my dogs when I had to travel for work, even though it was horribly hot and humid and he didn’t feel well. I really appreciate his quick communication and my dogs both took to him immediately. I’ll definitely book his services again in the future!
