About: Hi I’m a college student who loves animals and especially dogs. I grew up with dogs and I actually have my own pup named Shelby! She is a gorgeous mixed who I adopted from the pound. We love to spend time playing and training together! It helps keep us both stimulated ☺️. Me and my cat Greyson love to cuddle and he loves to play tag with his sister sometimes! I have been pet sitting since the age 10 and I have dealt with small , big, young and the old dogs. I’m able to make connections with any type of dog. I have dealt with dogs with special diets and needs. I love all dogs equally and would love to get to know your babies each. I do have doggy treats and toys but I would love to have any future friends bring their own. I also have experience working for a doggie day camp named pet paradise where I was taught and trained to understand dog and cat behavior so trust that your furry friends are in the best care! I currently have an open schedule and am home most days so I have complete flexibility to spend time and play with your furry friends! I have a one active friendly dog who loves to play and chase so if you are comfortable she is looking for a play date! I love to go on long walks and trips for treats! For my cats it depends on there comfortable level but for mines we do tons of chase play and cuddles!
“Samantha definitely went above and beyond to care for our dogs over the weekend. We never had to worry how they were doing or if they were being taken care of. She was so accommodating. We will definitely ask her to pet sit again!”
“Melissa was amazing! She took such great care of our pets & looked after the house while we were on vacation. She gave me great peace of mind and sent detailed reports with pictures everyday. Highly recommend!”

“I literally can’t say enough about Heather. I had to go to CA for a doctor’s appt and had to be gone for a week and right before I left, my dog became really sick and needed IV for 3 days. Heather didn’t hesitate. She went above and beyond and took Maggie to the vet to make sure she got exactly the care that she needed. I wouldn’t have left my dog period, but I had that much faith in Heather and the doctor’s appt was beyond a need for me.”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, whether that being pets growing up or my dad taking me to the farm. I’ve been working at Cindy Lou’s Do’s for 3+ years now and I do weekend boarding every weekend for dogs, cats and even pigs every so blue moon. My compassionate and fun personality will ensure the best care for your pet. I work part time at 2 jobs currently and i’m a college student but im always home and have breaks in between classes and things. my work schedule during the week is either 7am-12pm or 12pm-5pm. On weekends I also do dog boarding and the times I go in to walk and check on the dogs are 8,12 and 5 so most weekends i’m free to stay for boarding as long as i’m able to leave in between. I live in a gated neighborhood with one dog and 3 cats occasionally when the one outside wants to come in. They are all friendly and get along well with other pets. Pets to me are like children and need to be watched at all times and basically coddled, that is no problem for me whatsoever. quite frankly i enjoy it.

“Charlotte went above and beyond making sure Sumo and Sake were comfortable in our absence!! She literally feels like family after staying at our home and communicating with us day to day with photos and videos of our boys. Her care and level of comfort with two large dogs exceeded our expectations!! She treated our home like her own, everything was the same if not in better condition from when we left. I highly recommend her and we will certainly be asking her to stay again in the very near future! It’s hard to find people that give you a peace of mind while traveling. She is reliable and loves your family like they are her own. Cannot say enough. Thank you Charlotte!”
“Tim is awesome! I’ve used many sitters through Rover and Tim is the best! This is the 2nd time he has watched my 4 dogs and chickens at my house. He feeds them and spends a great deal of time with them. He also goes above and beyond by sweeping my floors and washing the bedding in my guest bedroom he slept in. It’s nice going on vacation and not having to worry. It’s also great coming home from vacation to happy dogs and a clean house.”

About: I’m the best pet lover for the job I’ll take well care of your your pet with much love and care I’m excited to be apart of the family I’m working Uber eats and other gigs so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your pet with love as if they were my baby I will take care of your by working them in the dog park keeping them fully on a leash enjoying every moment of it thank you

About: Hey, I'm Taylor and I have been a pet sitter since my 10th birthday. My love for all things furry has brought me a plethora of animals over the years, much to my sister's dismay. Squirrels, ferrets, dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, turtles, fish... Pretty much anything that crossed my path became my new fixation. I love to take care of, train, and bond with animals. There's an ongoing joke in my family that I take care of the "lost boys". 3 legs on chemo? Back legs stopped working? Insulin shots every 12 hours? None of it phases me. I'm happy to do anything for any fur baby. Medications, injections, and simple grooming are all included with my prices. I can accommodate for all pets. Please let me know at booking what your needs are and we can create a care plan together. My goal is always to make the stay as seemless as possible. Keeping your pet on their schedule relieves stress and makes the stay a happier experience, perfect for peace of mind during long getaways. I am lucky enough to work from home out of my stained glass studio. My flexible schedule allows me to cater my schedule to your pets stay. I offer in-home sitting and drop-ins to make for a more comfortable stay for your pets. I am happy to offer light house keeping including mail, plants, and always pet waste clean up.
