About: I have taken a wide variety of dogs from a Chihuahua to a German shepherd. Neighbors and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, give medications and play with their dogs. I have also stayed overnight servers different times. This has given a wide variety of experience with different cares and types of dogs. I am currently looking for part time summer jobs. I am fairly flexible and could work a variety of days and hours. I am able to pick up jobs at a short notice. I have a two weeks I would not be able to work but am free the rest of the summer. I am not currently in an apartment that would not suite dogs. I am comfortable and have experience with pet care in the home. I would be able to stay or night or visit throughout the day. I can walk, play and crate dogs if needed.

About: Our three beloved dogs of 15 years are now gone. We are eager to help care for your fur babies when you need someone to do so. We are care and comfort providers! Through Rover we have had over 40 four legged friends come to stay! I work out of the house 20 hours a week. I am able to be home and around for all potty breaks, play time, and walks! My husband is home in the evenings for snuggle time! I have a fenced in yard, three cats, and one rabbit. They are all current on their flea meds and shots. I live in a great walk friendly neighborhood as well.
“Rachel was amazing! We needed to find someone within a week and Rachel took time to correspond with us and come out to meet us and our fur babies. She was very attentive to the pups and how they were responding. She made sure she knew their schedule and asked questions about each of them to understand them individually. I've never left my dogs with anyone other than family, and Rachel made us feel at ease. We even received updates and pictures while away. We feel very lucky to have found Rachel and will definitely book with her again!”
“Great in home sitter. Very attentive and responsive to our dog's needs. Regular communication and updates. We were gone for 2 weeks and felt very comfortable the entire time leaving our pup with Sami. Would book again.”
“Alydia did an amazing job watching our pups. She went above and beyond with everything that was asked of her. Great communication as well! 10/10 recommend”
“Tonie took great care of my babes! They seemed to warm up to her quickly and I felt confident they were cared for. She sent plenty of updates and photos throughout the weekend which provided great peace of mind! We certainly hope to have her stay again! :)”
About: I have taken care and dog sat for people in my family for about 2 to 3 years and they are very energetic dogs. I am used to being very involved with the dogs I dog sit. I do have a job but I only work Wensdays, Fridays and Saturdays ranging from times of 4 to 7 hours. But the rest of my days are free to take care of your animal to the best of my ability. I do work about 16 hours a week but that is all, all my other time will be spent watching and caring for your pet. I would care for your pet like it was mine. I would take very good care of your animal, treating it with love and respect. I would take your rules very seriously and follow them to a T.
“Natalie did a great job watching my 2 pups while we were out of town. She was so sweet and kind. My dogs felt comfortable with her right away. She communicated well with me regarding my dog’s needs and sent me a few pictures and updates while we were gone. Definitely would recommend Natalie for your pet care needs.”
“I was incredibly hesitant to use another sitter from Rover after a terrible experience the last time but I took a chance with Brandi & Luis because the second I met them during our meet and greet I felt like they would be different and I was right! They were the BEST decision I made for my two doggies! They came right in and actually said hi to my dogs and showed so much interest in them and seemed to love them instantly! They worked with my schedule to do exactly what I needed and stayed at my house the entirety of my time away. I used them over the Fourth of July and one of my dogs does not do well with fireworks so I felt awful leaving her but she couldn’t have been in better hands! They stayed with her the entire time and followed my instructions down to every last word. They sent frequent updates with pictures and there was not a second I was worried my doggies weren’t being loved! They spent their time relaxing on the couch with them just like they do when we’re home and I know they took the absolute best care of them! I can’t wait to use them again if needed and I know my dogs will be THRILLED to see them again. I can’t speak highly enough, this was without a doubt the best Rover experience I’ve had and now I don’t ever want to use another dogsitter because I don’t think you can do better than Brandi & Luis!”
“Thank you”
“Kara watched our fur babies at our place for two days! She was professional, polite, and knew what she was doing! I definitely recommend her the next time you have to go out of town!”
