About: I grew up on a farm with horses, dogs, cats and had a best friend with pet snakes! I have a deep love and reverence for all creatures! I am a freelance researcher so I am available and flexible every day of the week. I have spent time with special animals in many different cities! I am comfortable adapting to you and your pets needs and routines. I have worked with many rescue dogs and am familiar with gentle adaptation techniques to help your special one transition with a lot of love an attention.
About: I have always grown up around animals of all shapes and sizes. Handling scaly friends and giant puppies alike comes like second nature to me. I’m currently working part-time remotely and attending an online winter course, so I have plenty of free time to check-in and spend time with your little friends of all sizes! I’m happy to follow any and all safety requests you have regarding your pets. Crates, feeding procedures, whatever you need, I’ll be it. Anything to make sure both critter and I are safe and sound!
“Taylor was a last minute lifesaver because I accidentally booked the wrong dates with our regular in home dog sitter. Outside of this, Taylor did an awesome job with our three rambunctious dogs, sent updates with pictures and even vacuumed before she left. We can’t wait to rebook with Taylor!”

“Tessa was fabulous. Our 2 dogs were very comfortable with her and she took great care of them over an entire weekend. She is a great communicator, prompt and a pleasure to work with. We will be happy to book her again.”

About: I’ve been a dog owner my entire life and have had experience owning other pets such as geckos, cats, and snakes. I’ve been a pet sitter for a little over two years. My true passion for pet sitting comes from my desire to be accompanied by them, dogs specifically. I work with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and personalities. Dogs of all backgrounds tend to gravitate towards me and I have never had any negative interactions. While studying for my undergrad, I was actually in charge of all the live animal specimens present on the University grounds. Feeding, exercise, and handling/care were done daily, which can explain my comfortability and familiarity with pet care. I currently am home as I finish my masters degree online so my daily schedule is fairly free. I workout and do part-time contract work when I am not doing schoolwork. I’m extremely flexible and will be willing to meet your needs as best as possible. Simply put, I treat the pets like they are my own. I ensure they are met with sufficient attention, exercise, nutrition, and safety while under my supervision. Minimizing stress is my biggest concern (my dog has separation anxiety so I know how it can be). I’ve found it helpful in the past to use my own dog as a bridge between myself and the client’s pet, as his presence tends to build confidence and reassurance.

“Emily was a perfect fit for my liberty! She sent me lots of photos!! When I arrived home Liberty was very happy to see us, but after the excitement of her greeting us she was running around the house looking for Emily! I will use Emily again and recommend her to anyone who wants there pets to receive lots of love ❤️”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and have always enjoyed caring for both cats and dogs. I currently have cats and a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I’ve also pet sat for friends while they’re out of town and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities. I’m currently a college student, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and visit when it’s most convenient for you and them. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, belly rubs, snuggles, or simply having someone keep them company, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care while you’re away. I know being away from your pets can be stressful, so I’ll gladly send photo and video updates during my visits to help give you peace of mind. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for until you’re back home. I look forward to meeting you and your sweet pets! I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and visit at times that are most convenient for you. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, playtime, feeding, or extra attention, I’ll do my best to provide reliable and consistent care. Safety and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets. For drop-in visits, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and plenty of attention. I know every pet is different, and I take the time to learn their individual needs and personality. I have a fenced yard and may be available for daycare services on a case-by-case basis. If needed, I can crate your dog according to your instructions to help keep them safe and comfortable. I’ll also gladly provide photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Jenna was absolutely fabulous when watching our baby, Bella, for a weekend! First of all she’s so incredibly sweet and we knew Bella would be in loving hands. Jenna focused on doing all the things Bella loved: playing fetch in the yard, going to the dog park, long walks, and cuddles in bed! Despite rainy weather, Jenna still took the time to do all these things with her. At the end of day Jenna sent many pictures of Bella’s day and sent a sweet recap! It felt so good from miles away knowing Bella was having the time of her life (most likely not even missing mom & dad!) She even worked on commands with her, which is much appreciated!!! Jenna also left our home like she was never even there! Clean and bed sheets stripped for easy washing :) Thank you Jenna!!! If you want someone to love your dog like their own - book Jenna!”

“Abigail was wonderful for Brizo and Zeus. She is very responible and considerate in other peoples home. Abigail emailed me photos daily of the dogs. I would definitely use and recommennd her again.”

“Sam was great! Stayed the week with my pup. I received pictures throughout which provided peace of mind since this was my first time leaving her. I have already booked another sitting. Highly recommend.”

“OUTSTANDING! Nicole exceeded our expectations! This was our first time using Rover. We were struggling to find someone to watch our 3 dogs. We contacted Nicole and she responded immediately. She was professional, punctual, and was interested in our pets' needs. We felt comfortable leaving our dogs (and our home) in her care. She communicated daily and sent adorable pictures of our dogs having fun. Two of our dogs are seniors and are picky eaters. She recorded when they ate and when one took his daily allergy medication. Nicole also left our home in spotless condition. Our experience with Nicole was phenomenal. She is absolutely amazing.”
