“This was my first time leaving my dog with someone, and Brandon proved to be extremely trustworthy. Trust is a major factor for me, and he made the entire experience much more comfortable. I felt confident knowing my dog was in good hands. He will definitely be my go-to sitter moving forward.”

“Alejandra took excellent care of my dog Finn while I was on a 2 week long trip. Communication was excellent and I genuinely felt like she enjoyed spending time with Finn. Don’t hesitate to book Alejandra for whatever pet care needs you have - dog walking, house sitting, etc. She is very reliable and professional.”

“Very dependable!”

About: What will set me apart: My attention to detail and adherence to your instruction to the letter. I will additionally tidy, clean, and make coming home a pleasure! I’m technical savvy and love to send photos of happy angels while you travel! I simply want to treat you and yours the way I want my sitters to treat me and mine. I work full time for the FAA as a technical support specialist and have for the last 12 years. I telework 100% and make my own schedule. Pet sitting is a natural extention of my work day with tons of flexibility mixed in. LLet me know what you require and I'll make it happen. In my own environment, I have a good sized fenced in yard with a dog door. Hannah basically goes where she wants when she wants, except when I leave the house. She like to talk to the neighbors and needs a little help when she get super chatty. My sweet cat, Ponyo, naturally stays inside. She will venture out from time to time if the door is open but always comes back pretty quick. Lot's of fresh water around and meals are planned and controlled to avoid obesity.

About: Hi there! I have been training and working with dogs of all ages for over 10 year now. Never too old to learn a new trick:) I am extremely versatile and happy to adapt to your pups speed. I love adventuring along side mans best friend. I love long hikes too:) As well as being a dog trainer I am also a horse trainer! I have trained dogs to work with horses, bikes, and on or off the leash walks:) Excited to meet your pup! I am currently working towards my bachelors in nursing. I am doing most of it online therefore I have a very flexible schedule! Always looking for more time and adventures with dogs. Patients is key! I understand not every dog is ready to jump into a new environment! And I am ready to work with them. Whether it is fear of being created, scared of new trails or people. We will work through it together(maybe with a little help from treats!) I am very aware of diets and allergies. And will keep your friend as safe as I would keep my own!

About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember, and have a lot of experience handling both big and small dogs. I also have experience giving dogs medicine and taking care of dogs with special needs as one of my dogs has to wear diapers. In addition I have expected taking care of both senior and young dogs. I don’t have a cat, but I’ve taken care of cats for a couple years by helping out my friends, family, and neighbors. I am able to work with senior cats or kittens and don’t mind if they are not too social as well. I’m currently on summer break and about to leave for college in the fall, so I am wanting a job that is easy to break away from. Due to this I am fairly open and have plenty of time to help people with pet care. I am completely willing to stop by and help take care of your pets needs whether that’s feeding them, taking them for a walk, giving medicine, or just spending time with them.

“Mandy was fantastic walking my dog, I came home to a happy pup who is pretty high energy and needs to burn it off. Great communication and would definitely book again!”

James D.

“Alex speaks dog!! She knows how to communicate with your animal and you. We have been apprehensive about finding a new walker as our pup has a high prey drive, is dog reactive, but Alex is so smart in the ways she handles our dog. Her rover card updates are excellent.”

Daniel S.

“Bella is always so excited when Sarah arrives! I really appreciate that Sarah understands dog behavior and works with Bella to be calm until it is time for the walk to begin. I am very grateful to have found Sarah on the Rover website!”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was old enough to take care of myself. As a child, we had cats in our family. As I grew older, I became the resident animal sitter for the neighborhood. I would walk, feed, and play with them for extra money. As an adult, I regularly watch my friends dogs and cats while they are out of town, staying in their homes, as to not disturb the routines of the beloved furry friends. I love their company. I’m currently work for myself, and can accommodate to the needs of the animals I watch. I own a business doing bodywork, and am flexible day to day. I’m available to watch your home and your pets. I currently do not have any pets of my own, so I am flexible to accommodate.

About: I've had dogs since I was born on and off for the past twenty six years. I have fallen in love with all of fur babies. Im very attentive and mindful of dog behaviors. And we'll adapt to the situation when needed. I am on a sabbatical and am looking for some adventure. With a passion for animals this is my perfect avenue to find that adventure. I have no problem traveling between clients, and adjusting the preferences, depending on the fur baby. I am a loving and warm spirit and doesn't mind taking time to get to now the fur baby before anything proceeds.

About: I have lived with cats my entire life, and own two currently. I regularly check on friends cats and dogs when they are out of town (for the past 10 years), so I am confident in my abilities to give your pets the attention they need while you're away. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with patience, attention, and respect. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, medication reminders, enrichment, or just some extra companionship while you're away, I’ll make sure they feel safe and cared for. I work remotely as a postdoc for UAF and my schedule can be flexible to work with yours/your pets needs! I enjoy spending time outdoors, and I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, and active outings tailored to your pet’s needs. I’m reliable, communicative, and will always send updates so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. I have two cats and will generally not be accepting any stay-over visits at my own house. They are really friendly and love humans but other pets would be stressful for everyone!

“Eric was able to walk Tugboat on short notice. So helpful and kind. I appreciated the help. Eric also was able to get Tugboat to not be interested in pulling. Can't thank Eric enough. Tugboat was always excited to see Eric and knew the time was coming. Can't recommend Eric enough.”

About: Roughly two years ago, I received a call from a colleague asking to house sit for a weekend after a previous bad experience with boarding two dogs. Both with health issues and one of them not sociable with other dogs. My colleague came back to a clean home, garden watered, mail organized and the dogs very well loved and walked everyday. Ever since, I have housesat for anywhere from 48hrs to nearly 30 days at a time with zero issues. Bed time rituals, feeding songs, walking a slightly reactive dog, cuddling very closely at night were the priorities at the top of the to-do list. Now that two years have passed since that first call I have decided to try my hand at truly making dog walking/house sitting/drop-in playdates a side gig! I work 12hrs a day, rotating weeks 3 days or 4 days a week. Typically Wednesday/Thursday-Saturday off every week. I am up early most mornings in my time off, can make myself available for late nights Wednesday-Friday as well. In your home, I will follow all requests diligently, check all doors and windows before leaving or before bed. I am MANDT de-escalation trained, CPR/BLS certified and will soon be training to further my EMS-adjacent skillsets. In emergencies, I understand the importance of prioritizing the fur babies and keeping them out of harm’s way.

“Brigitte is great! My pups really seem to like her! She was so sweet with them. She's also very reliable and always comes at the agreed upon time!”

About: I attended veterinary science at kcc for two years and continued on after that interning at clinics. CPR certified for pups & avid dog lady. Will love and care for your pups like they're my own. I am also well versed in dog allergic reactions and common diseases/infections & will alert you accordingly. I started my own dog walking/poop scooping business at 12 that I ran until I was 16 with over 10 returning clients! Caring for dogs has always felt like it’s what I’m supposed to do(: I work from home so I spend my days with my pup alternating between walks, car rides and work! I also have 2 cats who (as most cat lovers know) usually keep to themselves though I have seen them become affectionate with some dogs with calmer temperaments! My life revolves around these little critters and if you entrust me with your furry friend they will quickly become part of the pack and my life will revolve around them too while I have them! My home is a two story two bedroom home with a fenced yard and is fully doggie proofed/puppy proofed. I am a dog lady so I do allow dogs on my furniture and bed(unless I'm told otherwise by owners). I live about 5 minutes walking distance from a fenced dog park which I visit regularly and I take drives to Klatt field fenced in dog park regularly. I run a fairly lenient but still well kemp ship here, we all sit on the couch and hangout together and they’re all allowed on the bed at bedtime with me (unless I’m told otherwise). If a crate is needed I do have one kennel fit for an up to 80lbs dog that I keep in my downstairs room! If you’re inquiring about house sitting then consider me there! My husband and I both take care of our animals so if I am at your house, my animals won’t be an issue(:
