About: All dogs need love, even when you're busy. That’s where I step in! I’ll make sure no love is lost and keep your fur family entertained while you’re away :) I have worked with many dogs outside of the Rover app and love them all - big or small, old or young, stubborn or sweet - and I would love to meet and care for your dog(s) too when you can’t. I may have my toddler in tow with me at times, who loves dogs as well, but if needed I can arrange someone to care for her while I complete the booking. So please communicate if your furry companion is not toddler friendly. Thanks for booking with me, I can’t wait to play with your furry family member! :) I am currently a SAHM, so I have a pretty flexible schedule unless my child happens to get sick or there's an emergency situation. As of right now I do not offer boarding but after our house is finished with some renovations it might be a possibility, as long as they are potty-trained, friendly, good with kids, and get along with my golden/shepard/husky mix.

About: Hi my name is Christie and I am a huge Animal Lover! To me, dogs and cats aren’t just animals they are lifelong companions. 💕 I have many years of experience caring for a multitude of animals (40 to be exact). As a kid, we had dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, birds you name it. In high school, I worked for a groomer and learned a lot about how to properly care for different animals. I've always had a passion for rescuing because of my mom and her love of rescuing/saving animals in need of a home. It’s something that she passed down to me. RIP Momma I Miss You! ❤️‍🩹 My philosophy is that every animal deserves to know what love is in its fullest form so that is what I strive to provide to each and every animal in my care. We have a 2 beautiful rescue cats Bella and Lio as well as a 2 year old rescue dog named Nova. They are my furrkids, my companions, my therapy animals, and my little loves. 🐾🩷 As a self-employed cosmetologist, I am blessed with a flexible schedule which allows me the opportunity to be here to help care for your pet companions in the best ways possible. I have references available from those whose animals I have cared for previously that I will happily provide. Exercise is important to me so we like to spend time taking the animals we care for on long walks or hikes, swimming, or to the park to chase a ball or frisbee. I strive to give them the love and play time that they need and deserve. 🫶🏻 I am currently self-employed so I’ll have lots of time to dedicate to your furbaby/furbabies. I’m dedicated to making sure your pet feels loved and accepted in our home. We love to have lots of playtime fun. We teach tricks and go for daily walks, play fetch, and support lots of playtime. Daily snuggles and love are a must!!

About: I've had experience with pets ranging from rats, to fish, to snakes, cats, and dogs. I am no stranger to dogs/animals in general. I'll do everything in my power to ensure the safety and happiness of your beloved family member. I can handle big pets and small pets. Aggressive, anxious, timid, reactive, and generally difficult pets are my specialty. I can keep up with high energy/athletic pets, and care for disabled pets. I can pass meds, teach a few commands, and give you updates on how your pets are doing. Animals tend to love me as much as I love them, thank you for trusting me with you family. I'm available pretty much every day and during select holidays. I have a very flexible schedule due to the nature of my work at this time. I do drop ins, house sitting, and walks. I'll check on your pets, make sure they haven't gotten into anything, play with them, feed them, take them out, clean up after them, and provide updates on their care.

About: I have experience taking care of senior dogs, large breed dogs, breeds that have been “deemed aggressive,” small dogs and so on! I currently am mom to a 4 year old boxer pit mix who I rescued from the shelter 2 years ago when he was going to be euthanized for “being too large and taking up space.” It’s safe to say that your large dogs will be safe with me, as they have a special place in my heart! I enjoy the time I spend with every dog I take care of, and I promise to take your furry friend on adventures and I promise to keep them enriched during their time with me! I understand how hard it is to be away from your pet, and knowing they are in good hands and adventuring makes the time away easier. I also have experience with dogs that are more active than others and who need more enrichment than other dogs. I’m a pro at making a frozen Kong, frozen lick mat, or a treat puzzle! I work full-time but maintain a highly structured daily routine centered around my two dogs. I am fully available for walks and drop-in visits during early mornings, evenings, and all day on weekends, ensuring your pet gets dedicated, reliable care. I do not care for pets in my home but I am willing to do drop in visits, walks or even extended stays with my clients pets. I care for every dog as I do my own, and I will strictly follow the rules that the client has laid out for me (for example, if your pet needs to be crated at a certain time, I will ensure that they are crated at that time!)

About: I’ve been involved in pet care the entirety of my adulthood. From big sled dogs to frenchies and more, I’ve played along with more than I can say. Experienced specifically with large breed dogs and small to medium reactive dogs. I work almost full time at a local doggy daycare. If your pet is a client there I’m happy to be flexible about drop off and pick up from there. I have varying flexibility throughout the week. Friday is the day I’m least available. I offer primarily drop in visits and walks. Well mannered dogs may walk with myself and my friendly, female dog. Others may get a little more one on one time if uncomfortable with other dogs.

About: I've been boarding dogs in my home, for clients, for over 16 years. I'm quite fond of my temporary, furry family members. I enjoy taking the dogs on walks around my great neighborhood and on trails around town. I am happy to offer a very loving and playful environment for your pet. I have two cats, one that thinks he's a dog and loves all of our guests and one that just hides out of site. We look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! IMPORTANT: We do ask that if your dog has issues going to the bathroom in the house, that you be very honest about this and bring a crate for your pet, for moments we aren't home and for evenings. I'm very open and have a extremely flexible schedule. I look forward to meeting you dogs and taking the best care of them while you're away. I always make sure we do a thorough meet and greet, going over all the information. The more info, the better. I look forward to talking care of your dogs!

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a kid, and now work my full time job with animals every day. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, ferrets, and rodents! My senior dog has Stage 3 kidney disease and we provide daily care for him, including oral and injectable meds, and special diets. I am comfortable doing this with other animals :) I work a full time job during the week, hours 7 am - 3:30 pm. Am looking for supplemental income by providing pet care to those in need. I am available after 4:30 pm during the week, and weekends. I have a fenced in yard for my for dog, and a crate available if needed. I would prefer caring for your pets at your home but am willing to bring them to my home if they are dog and cat friendly. I have a senior dog who has some trouble getting around so we have ramps, but he prefers dogs that are smaller than he is, about 55 lbs. My pets are treated like kings and queens in our home and I would provide the same care for your fur babies!

About: Hi, I’m Madison! I’m a professional canine trainer, behaviorist, groomer, and full-time caretaker with 12 years of hands-on experience. I’m certified in dog behavior, temperament, body language, and care—so I understand what dogs need to feel safe, confident, and happy. I create enriching, balanced environments where every dog can thrive. From playful activities to structured downtime and personalized attention for pups with unique needs, I tailor each day to your dog’s individual personality. With me, your furry family member is treated like my own—showered with love, positive guidance, and plenty of tail-wagging fun! I give every dog my full attention, making sure they feel safe, loved, and totally at ease. Most days, you’ll find us outside soaking up the fresh air—running, playing, and exploring together. And if you ever wonder where I am, I’m probably out back with the pack having a blast. When winter hits, we move the fun into our heated, pup-friendly garage. It’s set up just for them, with turf or rubber mats for comfort and tons of toys to keep tails wagging. No matter the weather, your dog will always have a cozy, engaging, and joyful space to call their home-away-from-home. Your pup’s comfort and happiness are always my top priority! Our fully fenced-in backyard is designed with your dog’s comfort and enjoyment in mind, featuring pools, toys, water bowls, and all the essentials for a fun and enriching experience. Each dog is fed separately to maintain a peaceful and individualized routine. For dogs who prefer more privacy, we provide private rooms to ensure they have a quiet space away from the other dogs when needed. We are committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and personalized environment for every dog in our care.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

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.
