About: Hi there! I'm Jennifer, a passionate animal lover dedicated to providing the best care for your furry family members. With 30 years of experience in caring for my own pets as well as pet sitting and dog walking, I understand the importance of keeping your pets happy, healthy, and safe. I'm committed to creating a comfortable environment for your pets, whether it’s a fun walk in the park or some quality cuddle time at home. I take pride in my reliability and communication, ensuring you receive regular updates while you're away. Let’s connect and give your pets the love and attention they deserve! I also have experience caring for a variety of exotic animals as well please feel free to contact me with any requests! While I don't currently have any cats or dogs of my own I currently have 14 ferrets that are spoiled beyond all means. I have worked closely with rescues and taken in many rehomes due to the specialized care that they require. I currently make my own schedule since I perform work on an independent contractor and consultant basis so I have the availability to make almost any schedule work. I can usually accommodate requests with as little as 1 or 2 days notice due to the flexibility of my commitments. I look forward to spending time with your pets and treating them as if they are my own. I am happy to spend as much time with them as they require and look forward to minimizing the stress that unnecessary schedule changes can cause in their day to day routine.
About: I am a dog lover of all breeds! In addition to having 5 dogs of my own, I have watched numerous dogs inside and outside of my home. Dogs are family, and they deserve all of the love, cuddles and treats! I have the wonderful privilege of working from home! My in-home office is dog friendly, and my breaks/lunches provide plenty of time for food and potty breaks. I care for your pets as if they were my own! My house has a fenced in backyard, as well as a back deck for relaxing and playing. When in your home, I follow your pets routine to make sure they are as comfortable as possible.

In july I will not be able to do anything 3-6 due to school. I build trust through gentle handling, clear communication with owners, and attentiveness to each pet’s needs. I currently do not have a dog of my own.
About: I have been taking care of animals for years. I have 25 pets of my own and love every animal. I am looking forward to meeting you and your pets!

I’m patient, reliable, and experienced with basic training, medication routines, and providing comfort to anxious pups. Your dog will be treated like family! I currently work 15 days out of the month and can check in on your pets whenever it is needed! I usually know what my work schedule is going to be for the whole month in advance. In my home, pets are treated like family—with plenty of love, attention, and a safe, clean environment. I follow their usual routines to keep them comfortable and happy. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and stick to the pet’s normal schedule for feeding, playtime, and walks. Whether it's giving belly rubs, refreshing water bowls, or sending daily updates, I make sure each pet feels secure and cared for.
About: I am detail oriented and love schedules. I am punctual and will send updates and photos to your specifications. Whether your babies need crated or cuddled, I am the one for the job. I am currently not working so I am available most days and weekends. I have 2 friendly dogs that love to walk and play as well. I have a fenced in yard, lots of space for the animals to roam around freely. My dogs are both friendly and happy to meet new friends.
About: I’ve taken care of mine as well as my friends and families since I was 12. My entire life my best friends always had 4 paws. I was even going to study about them but instead I enlisted for the Army National Guard. I know all the techniques about bathing, clipping nails, dressing them and training them, all just from personal experiences. Every dog I ever had was different when it came to training them, so I had to learn new ways. No matter the breed, size, personality, or color of your dog I will love them and care for them as I do mine! That I can promise! Honestly perfectly! I always wanted to make money doing my favorite thing, which is spending my time with animals. Plus my daily routine is normally just me going on runs, walks, being home doing school, or hanging out outside. Which all of that I can with the pets. Except school work obviously, but it’ll just be a little chill/nap break. I don’t have a fenced in yard, but there is a dog park down the street from that I take my dog to and yours as well. Which my puppy, Mj would absolutely love having a friend to play with no matter the size. Her two Best friends were a beagle and a Chihuahua, however they moved and can’t play with her anymore. I’m able to get them travel bowls, extra leashes, doggy bags etc to cary with me for safety incase anything is needed and/or anything were to happen. I would be open to sending pictures updating the parents throughout the day also. I don’t like to cage mine as well as others but if necessary I do have a cage if needed.
About: I am fully vaccinated against COVID-19! I've been a dog owner since I was 13, and have done everything in my ability to improve the care of my pets every step of the way. I have experience giving oral medication to dogs on a regular schedule, and am open to learning about any special needs your own dogs might have before I care for them. In addition to dog care, I am willing to water plants and care for your house according to your instructions. I am almost always available unless I have another client scheduled. Over the years I have developed a fairly loyal client base among my family and friends, and am looking into expanding beyond them in part because of how much I love caring for animals. I hope to hear from you soon! Housesitting is my full time job. Your pets will have my full attention for any stays you book with me. Barring any short errands, I will be in your home 24/7. I will offer a checklist of questions during Meet & Greets where clients can leave me care instructions. I always double check with clients before making any deviations from these instructions.
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s been caring for dogs since I was 5 years old, from pint-sized Corgis to giant, gentle Great Pyrenees. I have experience with all kinds of temperaments and sizes, and I’m confident in administering oral medications and reinforcing basic house training. I also have two cats of my own, so I completely understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy and compassionate looking after your furry family members. Whether it’s a daily walk, playtime, or just some comforting company, I’m here to help make your life a little easier, and give your pets the love and care they deserve. I treat every pet like they’re my own and can’t wait to meet yours! I work a full time job so currently I am available on my days off each week and also before and after work! I will try to make your schedule work with mine as best as I can and what’s best for you fur-family I am looking forward to meeting you pets! I am able to offer dog walking, potty break drop ins, food and oral medication drop in, as well as full day doggy daycare. Your dogs will get plenty of play and mental stimulation to tire them out for the day but also make them feel loved and cherished! Each animal is different and requires a different approach and I think it’s all about making them feel safe and comfortable in their own environment!

About: I successfully ran a dog sitting/walking business for years with many happy clients. I briefly worked at Blue Pearl Vet Hospital in Pittsburgh as a kennel assistant so I have some experience on the medical side as well. I am a proud dog mom to three beautiful doggies. I have a very flexible schedule Wednesday-Sunday and am available morning, afternoon and evening. I am not available Mondays and Tuesdays. I can adjust my schedule to your needs! Safety and care is my number one priority. Both of my dogs are rescues from breeding at awful puppy-mill like circumstances so I really had to work with them to gain their trust. Now they can't get enough attention and love! I have a lot of experience dealing with anything from easy/friendly dogs to more difficult/complex dogs.
About: I’ve always been a dog person but I love all animals. We’ve always had a dog growing up along with some other pets (ex. Rabbits, hamsters, fish) anytime family or friends needed pet sitting I’ve been there. My main availability is Monday through Thursday but let me know the dates that you need the help and I can see what I can do! The two puppers in my house get to run and roam in the fenced yard but we do take them on walks from time to time.
About: Hi! I have been an animal lover and owner all my life. Growing up, I rode horses and my family had numerous dogs (puppies), cats (kittens), goats, hamsters, amphibians and birds! As an adult, I lived on a farm for 11 years and helped with a herd of goats, rabbits and mules. I am entertained by chickens and have raised multiple flocks of them and ducks too. I've also had great opportunity to travel doing house and pet sitting experiences along the way. I am an active person and I enjoy ensuring animals have the proper space and time to exercise in all seasons. It is my priority to treat animals with respect and kindness, allowing trust to develop. It is so interesting to make new fur-friends and learn each of their individual personalities. I am currently working only a small amount of hours each week, so my availability is quite open. I also have the flexibility to come to your house. I currently live with my parents and their two super friendly Boston terriers. We have a fenced yard and plenty of space for nice walks. If I am in your home, I am very adaptable and will follow your instructions for what is best for your pets.
About: I’ve always had animals in my life. Dogs and cats have been an integral part of my upbringing and now adult life. Family, friends, and coworkers have always relied on me to take care of their beloved pets. I currently work Monday through Friday 7:25-3:25 so any time before or after that as well as weekends I am free to spend with your babies. I can easily swing by for drop in visits and play with your pets and show them the love they need when your away. I also can do walks and trips in the car to parks and trails.
About: Hi! My name is Jordyn and I can’t wait to meet you and your pet. After losing my mom at a young age, animals became a big part of my life. I am a quiet person who has a lot of anxiety and animals seem to really help with that. Family and friends started to rely on me to watch, bathe, feed, walk or just spend time with their pet once they realized how much animals meant to me. Once I turned 18, I discovered Rover and wanted to help others by offering my services to people who might need help with their animals. I’m currently home full time during the week. I am not working right now. Since I am home full time at this time, I try to take my dogs out whenever I can. I am able to do whatever needs done when checking in on an animal or when having them in my home. When checking in on an animal, I am able to stay as long as I’m needed. (I usually stay a little longer than the time needed to give the babies some extra love before leaving!)

“Heather has been watching our pups for the last couple of years and they absolutely love and adore her. She comes to our house to stay with them, she sends texts and pictures.

“We had Shanna stay in our home for a week caring for our 2 Shi Tzus while we were away. She went far beyond our expectations in her care. She loves animals and educates herself in the best way to care for them. One of our dogs was sick and needed frequent medication. Shanna was not daunted by this task and found ways to give the medication not only easier for her but a nicer experience for our Sparky. We never had to worry about our dogs with Shanna- she kept us posted daily on how they were doing and if she had any questions. She took her job very seriously and our pets loved her!”
