I am a early riser and love morning walks with animals I have a large front yard and large backyard with all areas fenced in. I have water in all areas front and back. I have a fence all area the pool for safety

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was very young, especially dogs and even reptiles! I’ve spent many many hours researching different breeds of dogs so I could understand what they needed to be happy and healthy. I can even do bath times! With me, your pets will be in the best of care. I’m a stay at home mom who loves playing with pets and taking them on walks and play dates. I have a large vehicle which allows for me to transport pets easily. If you need them brought to the groomer or the vet? I’m your girl! I’m currently available to pupsit on weekends with weekdays on a case to case basis, I have two very friendly dogs who love making new friends! They are both crate trained which will allow those pets with a fear of others to thrive. My yard is fenced in as well and I have a 5yr old who loves to play with animals and go on very long walks

About: I have over 25 years experience working in veterinary medicine, dog training, and as behavior consultant as well as being Licensed Registered Veterinary Technician. I have studied animal behavior for over 20 years and a graduate of The Karen Pryor Academy's Foundations Course, Purdue University's DOGS program, among other courses. I am especially experienced with dogs who have chronic medical conditions and senior care. I am able to legally give medications including sub Q fluids, injectables or emergency care per your Veterinarian's instructions. I have worked in every area of veterinary hospitals, from physical exams, radiology, pharmacology, assisting in surgery, dental cleaning, behavior modification and performing life saving care in the event of emergencies. I am now semi-retired and have decided on ROVER to keep myself busy in my chosen field by providing boarding and day care. Nico and Lino have passed their Rover background and have been trained in CPR, positive reinforcement and learned behavior. I am currently home full time and my husband is home by the early afternoon. Also, my Adult son is here going to College. Your fur babies will always have company to play or cuddle with.

Everyday they keep me busy but I wouldn’t change a single thing in my life for it I love my two cats and dogs they are everything to me I give them plenty of room and freedom I feed them wet food around 4 but they have dry food throughout the day and they have plenty of water they also have a backyard to roam and use the potty.

About: After a wonderful 15 years loving and caring for my own furry son I am starting to miss the companionship of a four legged friend. I do not yet have professional experience taking care of pets however, I have taken care of countless friends and families own pets. Paying attention to detail on the ins and outs of each dog’s own needs. I am flexible, energetic, and excited to work with you and your pet. I am a primary school teacher on summer break so my current schedule is all freed up. I am available to walk, sit, and play when needed! I am a clear and open communicator. Easy to reach and quick to respond. With information on your pup and their needs I can readily provide those necessities. I am not afraid to ask any questions that might arise and absolutely love sending pictures and videos with updates.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. I’ve had all kinds of breeds and trained working dogs from duck hunting to cattle dogs. I’ve used working dogs with my job and that’s taught me to handle all kinds of different situations. I love taking care of animals right now and just move back home so i have a lot of free time on my hands. I’m available at any time of day. I always make sure the pet will have food and water, will get outside time and time to go potty, i will make sure they get some pets and play time. I’ll treat them like my own and make sure they are safe and healthy and well taken care of.

About: I have been caring for animals since I was 5 I grew up in a farm filled with sheep, cats, Dogs, cows, horses, chickens, ducks, you name it my grandfather had it I always have been involved in pets lives wether it is caring for a pet for a family member to helping out my father in his Frenchie business I started training dogs when I was a teenager I am now equipped with the knowledge and tools to successfully care for pets with disabilities I am CPR certified and can administer medicines I love all type of pets and here we give them the best treatment they can receive showers massages love play time walks dog park amongst other activities I can guarantee you once you let your pet board with me you will never want to go back to your old sitter 😉 give your self the peace of mind that your pet will be in great hands this day. we kindly and respectfully ask that all pets that enter our beautiful community be submitted to a flea and tick treatment for the safety of our home and most importantly for the safety of your pet if you do not have the time to give them a treatment please let us know we can definitely arrange a treatment for a additional fee not only will it ease your mind but you will be absolutely sure that your dog is in a clean and safe environment thank you for allowing me to care and continue to care for your beautiful fur babies 😊 I work from home and so does my wife so I make my own schedule I am flexible working all hours of the day and can keep pets over night I have a fence yard no other pets in my property I have children that love pets and love caring for them also I can keep your pet crates if necessary

About: I have grown up around animals my whole life! My dad raises chickens, I currently have 2 dogs and 5 rescue cats that live at home with me! I am very passionate about animals and have a deep love for them. I absolutely love spending time with my pets! I am currently a college student and I have a part time job, so I am looking to pet sit on my free time! I am pretty flexible around hours I do not have school or work! I also like to stay very active as I like to go on walks and runs on my own as well. I like to leave things as I found them and am very respectful of people’s spaces and privacy.

About: I know how hard it is to find good pet care, but to also find someone you trust. I have experience with many different kinds of dogs. My own being an epileptic German shepherd-husky mix. She was a rescue, and with her health conditions, I find it important that I can find and trust someone to take care of her needs, from medications to in the event of an episode. My previous dog was a senior boxer rescuer who had numerous health issues and required a strict diet and strict medication schedule. He needed all-around care and did not like to be left alone; he was my everything, and when his old age caught up to him, I was heartbroken. But we did everything we could to keep him alive, from medications to diet changes and belly bands. Nothing astopped the love and the need to help my baby. My mom recently took in a lab who is going blind, who now I also have experience taking care of; she can no longer see, but that doesn’t stop her energy! She can still play ball, and she goes on walks and even swims. No ask is too big, and no schedule is too tight. Your babies become my babies, and I will do everything I can to give you peaceful insight while being away and give your furbabies a pawsome vacation! I am very flexible! The more heads up I’m given, I can accommodate and we can work something out for your babies. I can also work with last minute arrangements. I think it’s very important your pet is comfortable with me. Making sure we meet and they get along with me and use to my scent. And establishes your pets dos and don’ts. Such as is your pet a runner, reactive, or bitter? Questions like these create a safe space not only for your animal but for me as well, as I know them and they know me!

“Thank you for the quick communication and taking care of my Mom’s boy Tyler!”

About: As a child, I assisted my stepdad with basic obedience and potty training for dogs as young as 6 months old for his dog training business. I have personally owned a red & blue nose pit bull rescue mates( plus a litter of 6 puppies). I currently own a 5 year old Lowchen rescue , two 6 month old Husky rescues, 2 aquatic turtles, and 9 fish. Despite my experience, I am ready to learn how to love and care for your family pet as you would. I'm am available 7- days a week to care for your pet. I understand things can change at last minute so I am available for same day service / cancellation. Providing services in your homes means I am to give the love and care I would provide to any animal at anytime. I will keep your pet safe as instructed, check in as needed to assure your peace of mind.

About: I love to go on walks, Long or Short. I will honor your request and make sure they get the best of care. I've had tons of experience caring for my own family's & close friends pets. I currently do not have any pets of my own, so it will be one on one with your fur babies. I'm retired. I go to yoga Mon - Thurs 9-10 am. I help with the care of my 96 year old mother. My schedule is pretty flexible & I'm available on weekends. I have plenty of time to walk and/or visit your fur baby/babies. When in your home I will respect like it was my Grandmas. I will keep to their schedules. Keep a clean environment. Always love on those fur babies

About: With 16 years of experience caring for my own dogs, I have successfully potty train them and taught them a variety of commands such as stay, come, and roll over. I even taught my dog to open and close a cabinet to access their treat. I enjoy walking and playing with dogs, creating strong bonds, and ensuring their well-being. As a young retiree from teaching with 16 years of experience, I have a flexible schedule and ample free time to care for your K9 family member. I'm available for boarding, walking, and playing with your dog, ensuring they receive attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. My open schedule allows me to cater to your pet's specific needs and provide them with the love and care they deserve. When caring for pets in my home, your dog will enjoy the company of my friendly, small Maltese female dog. I have dog toys and ample house space for play, as well as a fenced-in yard for safe, off-leash running and exercise. After walks, I rinse your dog's paws and pamper them with a touch of pure, natural lanolin for comfort. Your pet will be well-cared for and enjoy a loving, safe environment.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my deep love for animals of all kinds—young, old, healthy, or those needing extra care. With over 13 years of hands-on experience, I’ve worked with pets who have medical needs, including administering daily medications, caring for dogs with seizures, and supporting senior pets with mobility or incontinence issues. I’m especially tuned in to the unique needs of cats—I've lived with and cared for them for over a decade, and currently have five of my own. I can bathe them, trim their nails, and most importantly, earn their trust (because as any cat lover knows, they choose us—not the other way around!). I also love spending time outdoors with dogs—whether it’s a long walk or just time to sniff around and explore. I currently have one dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone who treats your pets like family. That’s exactly what I do. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to take dogs out for walks in the morning, during the day, or in the evening—whatever works best for your pet’s needs. I’m also available for house visits, feeding, playtime, administering medication, and anything else your furry friend may need. Caring for animals isn’t just something I make time for—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and build my day around. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, I prioritize creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible—from feeding and potty breaks to walks, playtime, and cuddle sessions. I pay close attention to their body language and behavior to make sure they’re comfortable and happy. If I’m in your home, I respect your space and aim to keep things just as you left them. I’ll send regular updates so you know how your pet is doing and can feel totally at ease while you're away. If pets are staying with me, they’ll be treated like part of the family. I have experience managing multiple pets and keeping everyone safe and happy, whether it’s quiet time for an older pet or more active play for a younger one.

About: Ever since I was a little girl I can remember growing up with dogs. From chihuahuas to Queensland Heelers, I’ve had my fair share of knowing what it’s like to care for dogs. Right now my family has five dogs. I love animals and making sure that they are loved and cared for! I just completed a training program for a total of 210 hours to become a veterinary assistant. I’m available Monday through Saturday after 1 pm to help with your pet needs. During the weekend I can come as early as 8am. :) I will make sure your pet has plenty of water and will feed when needed. I will check on your pet as often as needed to make sure they are safe.

You loving your pet is all the knowledge I need to want to love and provide for them too! I also have a years worth of knowledge in pet care due to a job at a pet store plus my own multiple years of studies in it as well.
