About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a child and lived with pets my entire life. I have helped my friends dog sit through this app and decided to join myself! I live in a popular neighborhood area, within walking distance of local trails/park, and have a fenced in back yard where I currently live. I love taking my son on adventures and can't wait to bring your furry friends along with us for the ride! My most memorable experience with a dog was when I was a little girl and we just got two peekapoo pups, one was attached to me by the hip and ill never forget running around in my backyard playing and if any other person tried running or playing with him he would sit at my feet and just look at me like….”whats this person trying to do?”. My most memorable experience with a cat was when my cat Oliver decided to climb up a ladder that we had in the house while changing out light fixtures, he got too scared to climb down so I went up after him and while trying to lovingly pry him down he decided to use my face as a jumping pad to get down safely. What sets me apart from other sitters is my level of patience, after years of experience with different pets, working in a social work field, and becoming a mom, I'm no stranger to crazy, messy, energetic, chaotic situations. (CURRENT AVAILABILITY for dog walking/drop-ins - Friday (all day) and Saturday (night) House sitting weekday availability but only for short term (no more than 5 days) I currently work part time on weekends and am a full time stay at home mom for my first son. I also do school part time online so that does not interfere with my availability during the week. (HOUSE SITTING DETAILS - I do not spend the night at houses because I have a one year old son but I can house sit during the entire day and/or do periodic check ins through the entire day and night) I live in a cozy home with hard wood floors, a fenced back yard, and a pet friendly neighborhood where you can find people walking their pets daily. I also live within walking distance of outdoor trails and a local park. I care for your pet by providing love, attention, and complying with any rules/requirements you need for your furry friend. I love being outside and have lots of free time since my son is only a baby. I love getting exercise outside and enjoy taking walks along trails and in parks. I am open to offering services in my home to established clients only, I believe for your furry friends safety and my sons it’s best to have a strong relationship before bringing them in home. I currently only offer house drop in visits and dog walking, and short term house sitting limited to weekdays.
5. McKenzie H.
“McKenzie does an AMAZING job with caring for pets!! She has cared for my two cats, Stella and Winston, many times, and they both love her so much!! She has also watched my parents' two dogs (French Brittany Spaniels), KoKo and Kirby, and she did a wonderful job! They are very high-energy pups, and she went out of her way to make sure they got plenty of exercise and love!!! She communicates well and is so kind!! I never have to worry about my fur babies if McKenzie is caring for them! I would HIGHLY recommend her as a rover!! :)”
6. McKayla M.
“McKayla was great! She even left some jazz tunes on for the puppies to keep them calm and was proactive in ensuring our senior dog took her anxiety medication so she would be calm while we were away. Thanks, McKayla!!”
7. Anika K.
“Anika is amazing. She is kind and very patient. She has kept my pets on multiple occasions and they LOVE her. She has been very thorough and honest. She is attentive to each of their needs and gives them enough love to sustain them until we return. If ever I take a trip she is my go to a long as she is available. My family can't thank her enough.”
8. Miranda L.
“She did great at sending me pictures and letting me know how their doing, and always showed up on time. Would definitely recommend Miranda :)”
9. Isabela R.
“Isabela did a wonderful job taking care of our cat over the holidays! She went above and beyond to treat him to his favorite activities- like drinking out of the bathtub faucet.”
10. Jasmine B.
“Jasmine was the best cat sitter I have had since getting my cats 3 years ago. I really appreciated her filling out the Rover Cards each visit and sending me pictures. It really helped my anxiety about being away from home. She also was very patient with my kitties who took a little bit of time to want to play and they got a lot more comfortable by the end of the 12 days. I would definitely contact her again”
11. Paola B.
“Paola is sweet, attentive and has a degree in zootechnics that focuses on animal well being and care. She always had a good relationship with small and large animals, also worked on our family ranch for some time and is used to being around pets.”
12. Shauna J.
“Shauna really loves dogs and dogs really love her! My dog gets excited when I say we are going to see her. I have an anxious dog who doesn’t like a lot of people, but Shauna has a way of making her feel comfortable and happy. If Maisy (my dog) could write the review, she’d say “Shauna is my favorite babysitter! I love her!””
13. Ashleigh W.
About: I’ve been around pets my entire life at some point I even want to be a veterinarian, but you grow up and things change. I still would love to take care and help out whoever I can. I’m pretty much open to any and everything and no pets too big or too small to be helped. I currently work two jobs 7 AM to 1:30 PM and I work my second job only Wednesdays and Sundays, but I am available any other days of the week and just send a text and I could probably fit anything into my schedule How I care for pets in my home or in clients homes is making sure their pets feel safe and comfortable and have a very clean and energetic environment if needed every pet’s personality is different so I go into meeting a pet very calmly and making sure I can gain their trust Whilst also being very patient

About: I believe in taking care of any furry family member, whether they are puppies or older puppies. I am a mother to a beautiful Rottweiler, a long haired dachshund and a Morkie who I love with all my heart. I believe in keeping the parents involved in all the aspect of the dog sitting keeping them informed and making sure they know their family members little tail is always wagging - I make sure to keep constant communication with pawrents so you guys never miss a second of their day. I love to go on walks with them and take them to the parks and if we so happen to get dirty playing outside I make sure that they come back home clean and fresh. I love to make doggies smile and happy. I have no concern with large breed dogs and small breed as well so truly no dog turned away. I work with rover full time and go to school as well, on my off days I like to keep active taking my own dogs for walks and I figured people as busy as I am could use the help as well so I would love to be able to assist with taking your doggies out too! As mentioned before I like to keep the pawrents up to date as I am taking care of the doggies! I make sure I have a list of all medications needed, any dietary restrictions, their own day to day schedule with feeding and bathroom breaks so it does not disturb their schedule. I offer at home care, boarding, walks, and drop ins to make it as convenient for your family as possible!
