Hayley can care for
Availability
I’m currently a nursing student looking to earn some extra income while in school by doing something I truly enjoy—caring for animals. My current job only schedules me occasionally, so I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week, including weekdays and many weekends. I’m happy to work around your schedule to provide reliable, loving care for your pets. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, or just some extra attention while you’re away, I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for every visit.

Safety, trust & environment
Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I treat every animal like they are my own by making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I walk my own dog almost daily, and on days when walks aren’t possible, I give her extra playtime and attention while respecting her limits as a senior pup! I always make sure she has fresh water, especially on hot days, and that she gets the care and companionship she needs. For drop-ins and walks, I will provide a safe environment, plenty of attention, and updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
Information Hayley S. would like to know about your pet
Before caring for a pet, I appreciate knowing about their personality, routines, and anything that helps them feel comfortable. Please let me know if they are shy, nervous, playful, or energetic so I can approach them the right way. It is also important to know about any medications, feeding instructions, favorite treats, or special needs they may have.
A typical day
I love keeping pets happy and engaged by playing fetch, going on walks, playing tug-of-war, and letting them enjoy their zoomies! I also enjoy relaxing with them on the couch, giving them plenty of love, attention, and affection so they feel safe and cared for while they’re with me.

Pet care experience
I’ve been caring for animals my whole life and have pet sat for my uncle’s dogs, cats, and ferrets since I was young. I have experience with small and medium-sized dogs, including senior dogs, as my own dog is 14 years old. I understand the patience and extra care older pets need. I’m a huge animal lover, have attended pet expos for years, and even cared for a bearded dragon. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family.
Reviews
Hayley is a thoughtful and caring person in everything she does. She has always been an animal lover. As a little kid, she had guinea pigs when she got older she had bearded dragons and our beloved 14 year old pup Shadow. She loves taking care of animals and truly cares about the comfort that they get, she would be a wonderful addition to Rover and take great care of anyone’s pets!!!
I highly recommend Hayley for your pet care needs! Hayley has taken wonderful care of our family dog, Kona, and every experience has given us complete peace of mind. It's obvious from the moment she interacts with animals that this isn't just a job—it's something she truly cares about. Our dog is always happy, comfortable, and well cared for, and we know she receives plenty of love, attention, and patience while we're away. What stands out most is Hayley’s genuine compassion for all animals. I've seen her firsthand with a variety of animals, from cats and dogs to ferrets and lizards. It's clear she has a deep love and respect for every pet she cares for, treating each one as if it were her own. If you're looking for someone who is trustworthy, dependable, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about animal care, I wholeheartedly recommend Hayley. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found someone I trust so completely with a member of our family.
Hayley is wonderful with animals and very responsible. When we travel we have left our 2 elderly dogs in her care. Additionally, we later left our elderly cat with her. She is kind hearted and does a great job caring for the pets. I highly recommend Hayley to you and your clients. Sincerely, Brian Schoen
