About: I have had animal care experience in general for about 3 collective years now. In high school, I received my certification in vet assistance and took a semester long class on veterinarian science. As of recently, I have been working at a doggy daycare and boarding facility for the last 2 years. From itty bitty to large and in charge, I have worked with a plethora of pups! With this, I have also gotten to experience care for puppies as well as senior dogs as well. While working here, I have been thoroughly trained in specific aspects of dog grooming such as nail trimmings, teeth cleanings, and medicated baths. Along with these skills, I am familiar in administering medications and preparing different kinds of meals for different pup needs! Overall, I am very comfortable with working with multi-dog households (up to 4) and being flexible to living situations too. As for training, I am mainly familiar in loose leash training and place training if need be. All I want is peace of mind for the owner and happiness to your dog(s)! I can't wait to work with you!! ♥ I am currently working part-time (about 4 days a week at the moment) and I mainly work early mornings into early noon. I am flexible in taking time off need be and rotating my hours to fit client's needs! My schedule for work right now goes as follows: Monday, Friday, and Saturday (6:00 AM - 1:00 PM) and Tuesday (1:00 PM - 7:00 PM). This leaves Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday completely open all day! I am currently a student in college, but I am taking online classes so this aspect should not be an issue in scheduling. At your home, I am fully willing to follow your comfortability levels in terms of roaming areas and rest areas for your dogs. I am very used to using crates for night time and rest periods, but if that is not your style no worries! Potty walks and enrichment activities are my speciality and I have found that it not only benefits the dog but positively impacts the dog sitter and pup relationship! I can give you more information on this if your are interested :)


11. Cynthia K.
“Cynthia possesses an exceptional talent for caring for dogs. Her attentiveness when looking after my Shih Tzu, Martini, is truly remarkable. Not only does she provide top-notch care for Martini, but she also respects the sanctity of my home, ensuring it remains tidy and orderly. The strong bond that Martini has formed with Cynthia is an enormous advantage when it comes to entrusting her with my dog-sitting needs.”


12. Maureen E.
“Benny is an awesome, dependable and responsible individual. I love how Benny and my dog have bonded. It’s so cute to see my pup rest her head on Benny’s lap. Benny will follow through on commitments and is a respectful and trustworthy individual. I recommend Benny to the Rover community.”


13. Madison R.
“Madison has always been an animal lover and always loved taking care of dogs. Growing up she would help her mom foster dogs and take care of them it was always something she loved doing. Now she has experience with working at a dog daycare/ boarding so know hows to properly take care of them.”

“Hi Kimberly, my friend is watching the boys and I will be home Tuesday Aug 2. Let’s meet up Aug 3 at my home and I’ll return your crate. See you soon!”

16. Wendy H.
About: My love for pets is what sparked me to enter the wonderful world of pet care. I have been a dog walker/sitter for 5+ years...mainly for friends, family, and neighbors. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your "kids." I grew up in a household of furry friends ranging from rescue dogs, cats, turtles, fish, hamsters, and birds. I couldn't imagine my life without them. They bring so much joy and happiness to my family's life. I currently work from home and have been married for almost 25 years. I have 2 amazing teenagers (a boy and a girl) who are busy playing high school and club sports. We are a very busy household. We have 1 dog named Stella (Border Collie) and a Cockatiel named Opie. We live in a 4 bedroom house with a backyard and pool with plenty of space for them to romp and play! We can't wait to meet you and your pets :) I currently work from home, but have a very flexible schedule allowing plenty of time to care for your pets. I will work my schedule around yours. I typically care for pets outside of my home for dog walking services or home visits. I follow the direction of the pet owners. Under special circumstances, I will care for pets in my own home on a case by case basis. My yard is fenced in, I have a 13 year old, sweet, and lovable Border Collie (Stella) and a young Cockatiel named Opie. Our home is all tile floors and they have the freedom to roam the house and furniture depending on what is allowed in their own home of course.

18. Joy L.

“I've known Joy Lynch for 10 years and would like recommend her for this position. She works very hard and is a kind and thoughtful person. Joy takes any work she does seriously and I would trust her to care for and keep my pet safe. -Kevin H”


19. Chandra B.
“I highly recommend Chandra as a pet sitter! Not only is she an amazing dog mom to her own two sweet Frenchies, but she is also a loving mother to her two children. She has taken care of my two Pomeranians, Spanky and Paddy, multiple times, and always does an excellent job. Chandra is attentive, responsible, and has a natural way with animals. My dogs adore her, and I always feel completely at ease knowing they are in her care. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets with the same love and attention she gives her own, Chandra is the perfect choice!”


20. Shadi T.
“Shadi has watched my animals on multiple occasions and has always done a wonderful job. I never worry about my animals when she is watching.”
