About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my extensive experience and specialized skills in handling dogs of all ages and temperaments. I bring a deep understanding of canine behavior, which allows me to provide tailored care and training to meet the unique needs of each dog. I am well-versed in training puppies, focusing on foundational skills and positive reinforcement techniques to foster good behavior and a strong bond. For senior dogs, I offer compassionate care that includes managing age-related issues such as mobility challenges and medical needs, ensuring they remain comfortable and happy. In addition to training and age-specific care, I am committed to maintaining a structured routine that promotes a sense of security and well-being. My approach combines attentive supervision with engaging activities, making sure your dog receives both mental and physical stimulation. This personalized and holistic approach ensures that every dog in my care receives the attention and care they deserve. Getting to take care of animals simply is one of the most rewarding things around. Dogs are always so giving towards us, so I believe that it is my duty to give back to them whenever possible! Dogs have certainly done so much for my life and I simply want to make sure they have all the love and kindness they need to thrive. Getting to meet new dogs and help people out all at once is a dream come true for me! Although I’ll be the primary caregiver for your dog, my home is full of puppy love! I currently live with my significant other, and they are a huge dog lover! They’ve had dogs for their whole life and is always happy to bring a new pup into the mix. When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It’s a great way to make sure that we’re all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pup and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it’s always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Perhaps the best thing about me as a sitter is that I’m a full-time dog lover! I am home every day except for Thursday which means that your pup will have all the love and attention that they need. No one likes to keep their pooch cooped up in a kennel all day, so I make sure that they can roam free and clear as they please! As I’m home all day except for Thursday, I’m the perfect fit for dogs that are used to having their human around them during the day--or for ones that could benefit from that! If you can't afford my prices I can work with you on the price you can afford it's no problem. As a pet sitter, your routine might look something like this: - **Morning:** Arrive to feed the pets, take them for a walk, and handle any bathroom breaks. - **Midday:** Check in again for a short visit, playtime, or a quick walk, depending on the pet’s needs. - **Evening:** Return to feed the pets again, provide companionship, and handle any additional exercise or bathroom breaks. I care for parts in my home all my clients home by making sure they're safe to have the food and taking them for walks and playing with their toys with them everyday.

About: Hello there, my name is Davey, and I’m an experienced pet caretaker with over 15 years of experience. I live alone and have access to a bark park and local parks, which allows me to provide a safe environment and ample amounts of open fields and stimulating environments for the doggie's.

Some of my furry friends tend to get attached to me quickly and even sit at the doors, waiting for me to return. Overall, I have a deep love for these little furry companions called pets. I’m a full-time remote student and a freelance photographer. I have more than enough flexibility to take care of your little one because I prepare everything on my schedule two weeks in advance. Pets will be completely safe in my hands as I am very attentive and aware, and we are most likely going to be in the same room the whole time. Should anything arise with your furry one I immediately communicate about it and let you know what the issue is and how we got there. of course every case is dependent on the personality of the furry one. I treat your pet as if they are my own if I wouldn’t drink faucet water I wouldn’t give your little one faucet water. We’re kind of bougie over here.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Marlow Heights
Tameka and her daughter Maddy, were one of the best hosts that we have had. Zeeba was a little nervous but they were patient and let warm up to them. Tameka helped me Out when I needed to be resting instead of walking. Zeeba got lots of treats and pets. We will use them again

Cayla was the best! She was timely, professional, and so kind and loving to my Bodie. Bodie can have a lot of energy and be a puller on walks, but she was patient with him and made sure to take long walks to get all of his energy out. I will definitely continue to book with her in the future. Thanks Cayla!

What a good thing to be able to trust someone with your dog and with Tiffany I felt it 100%. She was communicative- sending lots of updates and photos. From the photos it’s evident how happy my Nera was with being cared for and walked by Tiffany. Would rebook without hesitation.

Will is one of the most caring and professional dog walkers we've used yet! He is super communicative and friendly, and he provides great photos and feedback. Most importantly, he is a natural dog whisperer; our girls love him, and he's so patient with their many quirks and diva demands. I always feel better knowing Will is helping our girls when I'm out of town! Highly recommend!

Samantha was a joy to meet and to work with. She was prompt and friendly and Lady was not shy about walking with her . I would highly recommend her and would definitely request her services again in the future. The extra bonus was that she was very conveniently close by.
