About: I’ve taken care of the dogs in my neighborhood and family for about six years now. I can take care of senior animals and animals recovering from medical procedures. I’m currently in high school, but otherwise, I am mostly home and have a fully open schedule! I will take care of your lovely pets before I leave for school (6:50 am). I return from school at about 3 pm. I have a large yard with an invisible electric fence that I’m willing to walk through if shock collars aren’t an option for your animals. I live with my parents and we also have two dogs of our own— both are very friendly. I can also crate your dogs if needed. My home is smoke free and has a large porch+dog door that way pets can be outside without the risk of getting lost in the neighborhood.
“✨ 5+ STARS ✨I have much gratitude for Marcy. I had a last minute request for a 2-week job, and she handled it flawlessly and promptly. And this was my very first experience utilizing Marcy’s services. She’s professional, reliable, and clearly adores the furbabies! I’ll definitely contact Marcy for future needs!”

“Marie was a Godsend! I have never left my 2 cats but wanted to attend a wedding in Mexico. From the moment I met Marie, I knew my fur babies would be in good hands. She sent me pics twice a day and let me know how my girls were doing. Not only do I have a cat sitter, I have a new friend as well :) Marie is loving and responsible and I highly recommend her!!”

“I was very skeptical to hire outside of family and friends but am so happy I found Shane! Shane scheduled a meet and greet with me at my home to become familiar with my cats and their needs. A week leading up to my trip, he confirmed we were still scheduled to need his assistance, and provided daily updates/pictures while we were away. I cannot recommend Shane enough and happy I've found a trusted pet sitter in my absence. Thank you, Shane!”
“Shelley was great and so nice. In addition to taking great care of my 2 cats she took care of my chickens too. She offered to water my house plants while I was gone. Will definitely use her again”

“Elli did a great job checking on Lulu during my vacation. I enjoyed receiving photos of Lulu playing with Elli and getting her tuna treat! It made me less worried about leaving her for the first time! I will use Elli again for certain!”
About: I love all animals, right now I only take care of my own two guinea pigs but I wish I had a dog or cat to take care of! I used to babysit two cats and one of them had diabetes so I know how to do that if your pets need at home shots! I am always off work Wednesdays but there are a few days I work every other week and can take care of of your pets mostly in the morning on those days but Wednesdays is all day if needed! I will play with them, I will make sure they get the right amount of exercise, I will make sure they are fed when needed and give them extra cuddles too!
About: Hi, I’m Aaliyah! You can look me up on Google Aaliyah’s Dobies and check out my reviews😉 Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up raising and showing rabbits and chickens through 4-H and have experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish, small mammals, and farm animals. You name it, I either have it or love it. I am a dog breeder and have hands-on experience caring for newborn puppies, senior pets, and animals with special needs. I’ve also interned at veterinary offices, volunteered at animal shelters, and helped rescue, foster, and socialize kittens for adoption. In addition to caring for healthy pets, I have extensive experience with orphaned, injured, and medically fragile animals. My background includes caring for bottle babies, syringe feeding, tube feeding, administering subcutaneous fluids, deworming, parasite treatment, basic wound care, and supporting animals through illness and recovery. I have also worked with feral kittens, helping them learn to trust people and transition into loving homes. I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of supervision, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I will tailor their care to their individual needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to provide a stress-free experience while you’re away. I understand that every pet is unique, and I am committed to providing compassionate, reliable care that gives owners peace of mind. BOARDING REQUIREMENTS Before booking, I ask that all dogs be up-to-date on their vaccines and current on flea and tick prevention. Please make sure your dog’s Rover profile is fully completed so I can provide the best care possible. For everyone’s safety, I only accept dogs that are friendly and do well around other dogs. If your dog is selective, reactive, or has shown aggression toward other animals, my home may not be the best fit. For your dog’s stay, please bring their food, vaccination records, and any medications they may need along with clear instructions. If your dog requires a crate for sleeping or when left alone, please bring one, as I do not currently provide crates. You’re welcome to bring a favorite bed or blanket to help your dog feel more at home, although I have plenty of beds and blankets available. You do not need to bring bowls unless your dog uses a slow feeder or a special bowl. I recommend leaving favorite toys or valuable items at home. Dogs love to play, and toys can sometimes get worn out or misplaced. Don’t worry though—I have plenty of toys and enrichment activities to keep everyone entertained! My goal is to make your dog’s stay as safe, comfortable, and fun as possible while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. I work from home, which allows me to provide flexible scheduling, frequent potty breaks, regular supervision, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Because I am home most of the time, pets receive companionship, exercise, and care tailored to their individual needs and routines. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every animal as if they were my own and take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and any special needs. I provide a calm, loving environment with plenty of supervision, enrichment, exercise, and affection while maintaining the safety standards and instructions provided by each owner. If your pet has temperamental issues I’m happy to crate and rotate so they have individual time and I also have a building for boarding.
About: I’ve cared for a variety of dogs and cats over the last 10 years. I have also always had dogs of my own; currently have 3 beautiful girls. I love all pets, small to big and young to old. Athletic enough for young ones’ energy and gentle enough for seniors’ care. I have a background in pet health care and have also worked at a kennel in the past. Taking care of your animals wouldn’t even be a service to me; my love for them makes it easy. I work full time, but depending on location would be able to do walks or drop-in visits on my lunch breaks. As well as before or after work, if needed. I am available for house sitting pretty much any day of the week with at least 1-day notice. I have adequate knowledge on when a dog may be feeling stressed or threatened and know how to handle the situation accordingly. I can crate your dogs, if required. I do my absolute best to avoid distractions while on walks.
“Tommi did a great job with JuJu. She went beyond what was expected of her due to some circumstances that came up and it was very appreciated! It meant the world to me to know JuJu’s comfort and well-being were so important to her. She also sent me photos and videos and followed instructions really well! Would definitely hire again.”

“Sarah has been taking wonderful care of our rescue! Our guy has been working through separation anxiety and, thanks to Sarah’s drop-ins, he’s gaining confidence. ❤️ She has been so patient with him! Highly recommend”

About: I have had almost every type of animal there is from hamsters to horses! I am currently in college to become a vet tech. I have been walking dogs as a side job but I’m working to build a bigger clientele. Currently in college and I have morning classes from 8:30-11:30 Monday through Thursday. I already walk dogs once a week but I am hoping to get more work as I’m working to make this my main job. I baby my pets a lot they are very spoiled and I will treat yours the same! My dog gets walked twice a day and is very pampered with regular grooming. My cat gets a lot of treats and has at least 2 long play sessions and I go to see my horse who unfortunately doesn’t live in my backyard almost everyday to groom her and ride. All of my animals stay up to date on vet visits and any other needs.
About: I became a dog sitter when my Husband was working in the Military. His friends and workers would all need to go see family and could not always take their animals. So I became known as their extra Pet mommy. Even after my Husband got out of the ARMY, We saw a old comrade I sat for, and they said their dog doesn't like their new sitter. She was sad I left. We saw them in EPCOT of all places. It was nice to know they liked me. I am available all day to come and walk or play, or even just sit with your puppies or kitties. I have my own transportation and am reliable. I never leave the pet alone. we play and cuddle a lot. I take care of their area and their meds if needed as well. I am currently working part time so I will have time to play and cuddle with your pets all the time. It will be my pleasure. I am always watching to make sure they don't get into something they shouldn't be eating or playing with. I love to take walks and play.
