About: Started caring for pets since I was 10. Mostly dogs and cats along with some awesome rabbits. Neighbors, friends and family relied on me to walk, feed, play, administer medicine, clean liter boxes and give good lovin' to their beloved pets ! Lots of experience staying with pets in their home (sometimes for several weeks at a time) or coming to their home several times days for care. Realized that I was born with a natural rapport with animals. Grateful for this ability and nurtured these skills all my life. I'm currently applying for full-time work, so I'll have plenty of time (flexible hours) to love-up on your dearest dogs with walks, play and treats. Of course, belly rubs are included! Haven't had my own pet in awhile, but lived with housemates who have wonderful animal spirits (dogs, cats and bunnies) to brighten their lives and mine. When I've lived with pets, always check they have plenty of clean water and food and, depending on how they are housed, make sure they are safe in their crates or curled up in their favorite spots before I leave. Always make sure that I know where list of emergency contacts and vet info is located.

About: I have watched multiple types of dogs including: shih tzu, Yorkies, Pomeranian, lab, poodles, redbones, border collie, boxers, pit bulls, jack Russells, and Chihuahuas. I have bathed, cut hair/ nails, brushed, and given medicine to many dogs. I have fed, watered, walked, ran, and scratched dogs. I have kept multiple dogs overnight, during the day and in the evening. I have taken dogs to the vet, let them out periodically, and just stopped by to give them some attention also! In the end, I really truly do love all dogs and I just want to give them the love and attention they deserve. I have availability through out most evenings from 4pm - 11pm. I could also do some earlier in the morning for a couple hours with enough notice. Weekends I’m fully free. I can also do overnight and then morning drop offs if needed. Or I could keep them at my house during the day and stop by a few times to let them out (I’m right next door)! I will give them food / water / medicine when directed. I will give them treats when deserved or directed. I will take them on walks, play with them, and let them out periodically to use the bathroom. I will give them lots of cuddles and scratches if that’s something they are interested in!

About: With over 25 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and farm animals, I bring a unique blend of professionalism, intuition, and grounded presence to every animal I care for. My background in law enforcement, behavioral observation, and trauma-informed support makes me especially skilled with animals who are anxious, reactive, or sensitive. I’ve worked with everything from puppies to senior pets, high-energy working breeds to misunderstood rescues, and multi-pet households that require structure and reliability. I’m confident with medication administration, basic training follow-through, and reading body language to prevent issues before they start. What sets me apart? 🐾 Veteran-level experience—not a hobbyist or casual sitter 🐾 Criminal justice & security background—you can trust your home and animals are safe 🐾 Farm-capable—comfortable caring for chickens, goats, donkeys, horses, and more 🐾 Trauma-aware—I understand how to approach fearful or reactive animals with calm authority 🐾 Energetically grounded—I leave your pets emotionally balanced, not just fed Whether you're gone for a day or several weeks, I ensure your animals are cared for with the same diligence and loyalty I give my own. Additional Animal & Farm Care Pricing Have animals that aren’t listed on Rover? No problem—I also care for chickens, goats, donkeys, horses, and more. I’ve worked in law enforcement, security, and animal care for over a decade, so your home and animals will always be treated with professionalism and respect. If you’d like to add non-traditional animals to your booking, just message me and I’ll provide a custom quote based on care needs, travel, and time commitment. Here’s a general guide: 🐓 Chickens (basic flock care): $10–15/day 🐐 Goats or Sheep: $15–20/day 🐴 Horses – Basic Feed & Turnout: $25/day 🐴 Horses – Full Care (feed, turnout, stall, meds): $30–40/day 🦆 Other Farm Animals: Case-by-case, starting at $10/day For overnight or long-term farm stays, add: $20–30/night for exclusive presence or house sitting Custom quote for 5+ animals or complex care needs I currently can care for your pet pretty much any day.

About: I have had dogs & cats my entire life—all shapes, sizes & colors. I am passionate about providing loving and attentive support to pets of all kinds. I have experience administering medications, watching puppies, caring for seniors, you name it! Most notably, I pay close attention to those special pets who may need specific care. I am dedicated to making each pet's experience enjoyable and stress-free. I believe every pet deserves the best, and I will always strive to provide that with the utmost compassion and professionalism. My schedule is pretty flexible since I’m a student. I only have class on Monday-Wednesday leaving my schedule open almost entirely. I also have time those days too. I understand that some pets need fed on a certain schedule or let out more often than others. My open availability allows me to provide that. I understand the trust needed to allow a "complete stranger" into your home. I promise to make sure as though you and your pet don't feel as if I am a stranger. That being said, I prefer always meeting you and your pet before providing care. I will also treat your pet, and your home, as my own. Giving them and it the utmost care and respect.

About: New to the area and am a huge animal lover! Worked in a small town veterinarian office, so I was always surrounded by others’ pets. I have open availability and am more than able to find a time to work around both your schedule and mine to accommodate the proper care routine. Whether it be my own pet or someone else’s, giving them plenty of attention and time throughout the day allows for a proper care routine.

About: I've been an animal lover since I can remember. I started caring for animals at a young age since my family always had our own pets and I felt a sense of pride in helping with them. When I got older I got a job at a big chain animal store, in the "Pet Care" department where I gained so much hands on experience and knowledge on the care of the most common pets. I'm definitely looking forward to meeting yours!! I work part time so my mornings & afternoons make it possible for me to swing by and care for a couple of cuties in need of a potty break and/or a snuggle, and anything else they would need. I will follow and respect all rules and instructions for the care of your pet(s). My priority is always the safety and wellness of your pet(s).

About: As long as I can remember growing up we always had animals mostly dogs. As I got older I have always been the one my friends and family come to when they need someone to care for their pets. I would pet sit, take them on walks , stay with them and play with them. I am a true dog lover through and through. I have had dogs my whole life . My son has 5 dogs and pretty much everyone I know is a pet lover so no matter where I go I’m around animals. I watch dogs for friends and my son often. I can take them to the dog park to run and play with other dogs. We can go on walks and play in the yard.

About: I have owned my own personal animals for the past 6 years, I have 3 dogs (all beautiful muts) and 8 cats. Aside from having my own furry kids, I've also worked in animal rescue for a little over 4 years. This job field has given me so much experience working with every sort of dog breed, and any cat temperament. I currently work a full time job Monday-Thursday but I would love to be more involved in the animal field again. With me having fridays off I feel this is a great opportunity to spend time helping others and hanging out with animals! Since I do have my own animals, I will not be able to provide in home care. However, I will be more than happy to set something up with you to do care for your pets in their own home!

Thea is a reliable and loving caregiver. We have a ragdoll cat and she went out of her way to spend time with him. He was really well taken care of. We left for over 10 days and were never worried! She sent us photos and described his behavior, and this brought us tremendous joy. I am so pleased with how Thea treated our cat! In the last years I have also seen how well she treats dogs (we had two dogs visiting and she dog sat for us!). I highly recommend Thea as a pet caregiver!

I ask Amber to care for my dogs and horses when I have to go away on business. She always takes such good care of them and treats them like they are her own animals which I know for a fact her animals are like her kids. Along with taking such good care of them, Amber has always had a way with animals. They take to her quickly and she easily is able to bond with them...animals feel safe in her prescence.

Shauden watched my four dogs for a week and was amazing with them! He gave all the right medication to them on time, and went the extra mile and walked them when I didn't even ask him to. He's the funniest, sweetest person I know and I wouldn't trust anyone else with my babies.

I known Landy Pazos over 6 years and since the beginning what stands out about him is his love for animals. Such kindness, patience and loving care is hard to find now days. I can vouch that he’s a very trustworthy person and cared deeply about his responsibilities and the wellbeing of his and other people’s pets. He spends his free time helping stray animals that are in very much need of food or any other illness. Such a great person and caring. I recommend
