My senior dog was very well taken care of during our absence. I loved receiving daily updates and pictures so I wouldn’t miss him so much! Thank you for taking care of him while we were gone.

About: I have experience caring for pets with a variety of needs, including my own senior dachshund, so i understand the patience, attention, and mobility support older pets require. I’ve also provided dog and house sitting for some pets who needed medication, and I’m confident in my ability to deliver it safely and on schedule. I’ve also owned hamsters in the past. I love animals of all shapes and sizes and I’m open to caring for a variety of different pets (apart from spiders!). I promise to give your pets plenty of attention and quality care while you’re away :) I work a part time job about 20-30hrs/week, and I’m a full time college student. My schedule varies throughout the week, but I’m available weekday mornings, as well as all day Thursday/Friday! I follow instructions carefully, while making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable in their environment. I keep things tidy and will provide updates for owners!

About: We are experienced in taking care of small and large breed dogs. We love to walk them and care for each client’s pet as our own. We have been a pet owners for over 20 yrs and also help take care or family and friends pets when they are gone. We love caring for dogs. My wife works weekends and I work through the week. Someone is home all day. We are gone for church and kids activities in the evenings and Sunday morning. We have 4 kids ages 7-17 that love helping with the dogs. Your dog will get plenty of attention while boarding here. We have a small puggle who is 5. My daily personal pet care routine consists of 2 meals and water daily. 1-2 mile walks. Toby gets a treat after he goes potty. We let him out in the fenced backyard every 3-4 hours or when he goes to the door. He also likes to lay on the deck and sunbath. We love and treat each client’s pet as it was our very own. We love to care for dogs and have a special connection with them. We are patient and kind and take time to learn each pets routine and behaviors. We can’t wait to get to know your dog and care for them!

About: Hi! I'm Audrey! I'm currently a stay at home mama, so my schedule is very flexible! I am happy to do a meet and greet with you & your fur baby before we get scheduled, please reach out if you have questions! I can't wait to talk to you! More about me: I grew up in a home with dogs from the time that I was a baby - I can't ever remember a time in my life where I didn't have a fur baby. I was first rescued by my dog, Kiah, when I was 13 years old. I currently have 2 dogs and 3 dog friendly cats (though these kitties stay in separate rooms away from the areas your animals would be). If you have an animal that needs shots, medications, or any special needs - I'm the girl for you; I have personal experience with my own animals that have needed shots, medicines, etc. For dog walking: I'm a stay at home mama so I have plenty of time during the day to stop in to see your baby! I can do anywhere between 15 minute walks to 60 minute walks. For doggy daycare or boarding: Still a stay at home mom - ha! This means I am home most of the day unless I am taking other pups on walks. My husband also works from home so there is someone here a majority of the time, unless we are going grocery shopping that weekend! We also have three dog loving teens! Our dogs spend a lot of time playing in the backyard and resting snuggled up on our couches. For dog walking: I love being outside - so spending quality time with your baby on a walk is important to me! I always make sure to have water accessible for your baby before/after a walk as well. On our walks, I'll make sure to have bags to pick up any bathroom needs as well! For doggy daycare & boarding: We are home a majority of the time, when we aren't home we always prefer to crate dogs that are crate trained that way they are able to stay safe! If they aren't, we are happy to work with you & see what you do with your baby when you're gone. We never leave two dogs that aren't familiar with each other alone in the same room either!

About: I’ve taken care of animals for many years now. My parents are Rover sitters and we have taken care of several different dogs. I have been exposed to all different breeds and ages. I have also given animals their medication. I am always free during the summer. I can walk your dog, check on your cats or anything else that you need. Just let me know. I would go to your home as many times a day as needed and stay the night if preferred. I can put your dog in its crate or let them sleep in bed with me. I am very accommodating to the needs of your pet.

About: I have over 13 years of experience as a dedicated cat owner, having cared for my own cat throughout its life. My love for animals started early, as I had a dog growing up, and as an adult, I cared for two beloved dogs who have since passed away. Additionally, my experience extends to a variety of other animals, including rats, guinea pigs, tortoises, and fish, and I also cared for dogs while working as a nanny. I am committed to your pets safety and wellbeing. My schedule is flexible which allows me the chance to acre for your pet and their unique needs. A morning or lunch walk would fit well into my schedule and caring for pets during the week or on the weekends is not a problem. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment. This includes maintaining a clean space, providing regular feeding schedules with fresh water, and ensuring plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection to meet their physical and emotional needs. I also keep a close eye on their health, looking out for any changes in behavior or signs of illness, and address them promptly. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I adapt to the pet's established routine to minimize stress and ensure continuity of care. I follow specific instructions provided by the client, such as feeding schedules, medication needs, or special care requirements. I make sure to maintain a clean space, engage with the pet to build trust and comfort, and keep the client updated on their pet’s well-being. Whether in my home or a client's, my goal is to provide compassionate and reliable care tailored to each pet's unique needs.

About: I am a dog mom of two! They are my world, but I have never met an animal I didn’t like!! Small or big they are all special and need love!! I work as a caregiver in the evenings Monday through Thursday 3:30-10 and Friday 3:30-8. So I am available all other hours of the day. I also have the flexibility if I must to make a quick stop by during working hours if I need. I have a fenced in yard and two dogs who love making new friends and having play dates! I believe that the house is there home and they are welcome to sleep and lay on the couches and beds!!

About: I’ve worked at a doggy daycare for about 2 years now. So I have experience with all breeds and I know how to handle them. I’ve volunteered multiple times at my local animal shelter along with giving dogs medicine including insulin shots! Other than that I’ve grown up with many dogs and cats. So I love animals. I’m currently in college with a major in agriculture hoping to be a vet in the future! I’m currently on summer break so I have a lot of free time at the moment! I can house sit, drop in visits, and do walks in the evening or at whatever time on my days off! I can only care for your pets in your home since I live in a dorm! I will follow all rules given to me to take care of your fur baby!

About: I’ve helped take care of 2 adopted dogs. I loved taking them to the dog park and walking them! I want to help others take care of their dog/s. I’m currently a full time right now at UKHC. I plan on walking dogs on the days I’m off which varies, but the time on my days off for dog walks is wide open. While dog walking I will make sure the path we are walking is familiar and safe. Bringing water and treats for the dog is a must, as well as cleaning up after the dog.

Kim is absolutely fantastic! I contacted Kim and asked if she could walk my two dogs for a couple of days. Kim kindly replied to me quickly and was very accommodating to my last minute request. She treated my dogs with so much love and care. She made sure to refill their water, give them a few treats and sent me some adorable pictures of them where they looked so happy! She is absolutely great and will treat your pet(s) with love!

Rachel is the first dog walker I’ve ever hired, and my first experience with Rover. She has been exceptional. SO sweet, great at communicating, and timely. She also spent an extra 20-30 minutes walking my dog (after communicating to see if it was ok), trying to track down a bandana that had fallen off. She has been a huge help to my family, and I can’t recommend her enough.

About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats for many years. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that every animal has a different personality and routine, so I always try to make them feel comfortable and safe. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow any instructions, whether it’s caring for energetic dogs, shy cats, or pets that just need extra love and attention. I work online a few hours a day with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to care for pets and give them attention throughout the day. I can easily adjust my routine for walks, feeding times, playtime, or check-ins. I’m usually available on weekdays and I also have availability on weekends depending on the booking. Your pet’s safety and comfort are very important to me. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and try to keep pets on their normal routine so they feel relaxed and secure. I pay close attention to their behavior, making sure they have enough exercise, playtime, and affection. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with respect and make sure everything stays clean, safe, and calm for your pet.
