Dog Sitting Nowthen

“Madison did an excellent job with my dog, Simon. Her communication was fantastic and she did a great job sticking to Simon’s schedule. To top it off, I could tell Simon was well taken care of as he was a happy puppy when I got home. I highly reccomend Madison for any pet care needs!”

About: I have a bit more varied experience than some. When I was young, we had a veritable zoo, and I haven't stopped having animals since. I've never not had a dog and was made responsible for over 30 miniature horses whenever their owner needed it. I also have experience with ferrets, cats, parakeets, parrots, and lizards. I will say if you need to look after something more exotic (and demanding) we would need to talk first. My dog is also quite old and has a lot of health problems, so I am familiar with handling these. I work Mondays from 12-7 and Tuesdays through Thursday I work 10-4. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday I have mostly open availability with the exception that I occasionally have work events. Each animal is different, and so I would strive to find that balance with your dog. Every dog plays a bit different or might need their food handled differently. While I can't take animals into my home at the present, I will strive to be as careful with meeting their needs as I do my own pup at home.

About: Thank you for considering me to provide care for your fur baby. I am available to provide drop-in care for your cat or small to mid-sized dog as well as walk your dog in your absence. I have almost always had a cat in my life. I had cats all throughout childhood and for 22 consecutive years as an adult. I usually have two furry friends in my home at one time. My current loves are an 18-year-old Maine Coon and a 6-year-old Tuxedo. I can care for kittens up through geriatric kitties like mine. I have complete flexibility with my schedule and am happy to take requests on short notice. I am happy to provide meds, brush your feline friend, feed, change litterbox, play with, or whatever else your cat needs. Although I have never had a dog, I have cared for the dogs of family members when they traveled or were recovering from surgery. Dog care included walking, feeding, playing, and just making sure the dogs stayed happy and healthy until my family member returned home. I appreciate the trust placed in me and can't wait to meet your four-legged companion. I have complete flexibility with my schedule and am willing to take requests with just one day's notice. Your fuzzy companions will be in good hands while you travel. Just let me know what your pet need while you are away from home, and I will provide it. I will leave your home exactly the way I found it as well.

“Breann has done a great job dropping in to take care of my cat while I was away. Her visit summaries are well detailed and she is very observant of cat behaviors. I highly recommend her!”

“Aida did a wonderful job taking care of our two dogs, one of whom has special needs. She was very prompt and provided great feedback. Felt really comfortable leaving our two pups with her!”

About: ✨️🐶 Please read my profile in full (including availability and pricing sections) before reaching out with a service request 🌈🌥🐈‍⬛ I have always loved and cared about the welfare of animals ever since I can remember, and even had several different pets of my own growing up that I cared for, including a couple of dogs (one of which lived to be 17 years old!). I have past experience with volunteering at organisations such as the SPCA (providing care for cats, dogs, and rabbits) and caring for cats at AniMall Cat Clinic. I have helped several close ones and neighbours thoroughout the years with pet care needs for their dogs and cats, which included: feeding, walking, providing transportation to veterinary appointments, bathing, basic grooming, and just spending quality time with the pets. Some of my specialised experience includes caring for pets with mobility issues, breeds that are reactive to other dogs (but still love the company of humans), breeds that are often subject to housing or insurance restrictions (some of which have included: Pit Bulls, German Shepherds, Rottweiler mixes, Belgian Malinois, Huskies, Dobermans, Staffordshire Terriers, Malamutes, and American Bullies), and experience in administering medication to both dogs and cats in oral, injectable, and topical forms. 🐾 Please note I work M-F full time (excluding major holidays), and am currently unable to provide midday breaks when working due to the nature of my work. My standard for bookings that fall on weekdays is to provide care in mornings before work, evenings after work, and of course, stay overnight in the home (and be more present on weekends). I can best accommodate pets whose daytime care needs would be covered while I'm at work (such as through a doggy door or litter box, neighbour check ins, or if pets need less frequent bathroom breaks) . 🌟I am open to discussing alternatives as well such as taking your pet to doggy day care while I work. However, transportation will incur an extra fee in addition to the booking that varies depending on distance and time requirements. For walks and drop ins in particular, I would be a great choice for pet parents that need care in evenings, nights, and weekends. I focus on understanding each dog's individual temperament, communication style, and needs. I will listen to/observe your pet's body language and demeanour before approaching, and will always interact with them gently and kindly. On walks, I always use a leash or harness to keep the pet safe. Furthermore, I always strive to keep an eye out for any potential hazards to pets while they are in my care and will always act swiftly to remove said hazard so your pet will be out of harm's way. I do believe too that good pet care includes planning for the unexpected, so I like to establish emergency contacts, veterinary/animal hospital information, and contingency plans with every client before a stay (and preferably have these included in written directions too).

About: I have my own German Shepherd I have had since she was 6 months. As well as having been around dogs a good portion of my life, I do my best to be what she needs I work very part-time at a dominoes, usually only 4-8 hours a week, i do have appointments on Tuesdays, lasting only about 2 hours so I am always home and have plenty of time for your beloved doggos I do not have a fenced yard, but I do have a firmly secured tie-out and extra leashes for outside potty breaks and/or walks, as well as a 5 year old German Shepherd (she is spade) Who is very happy and animal friendly

About: Have a family of 3 dogs and 2 cats and my family and I love our messy and hyper fur kids, no matter the situation we do research to avoid getting our fur kids sick and keep them feeling loved and relaxed :) I graduated from college this past summer and am working part time jobs so I have time to take care of friendly pets of any kinds and more than happy to house sit as well for any vacations! We have a fenced yard and we have a crate to put them in when they are doing naughty behaviors like digging through the trash or grabbing things (like food on the table) when they aren’t supposed to. I take them on walks and give them toys to play with as they love tug of war and enrichment toys to keep them busy while we are otherwise we cuddle and watch tv on the couch in my free time.

About: For 16 years I shared my life with Moose, my loyal sidekick, and he taught me everything about caring for a dog through every stage, from puppy mischief to senior-year slow walks. He's been gone four years now, and I've missed having a pup around, which is what brought me to Rover. I specialize in small and medium-sized dogs and live in a cozy townhouse. We don't have a yard, but your dog will get plenty of walks throughout the day, which most dogs prefer anyway. I work mostly from home with occaisional short shifts in the late afternoon/evening. I offer overnights, weekend stays, and drop-in visits, and I'll send photo updates so you always know how your dog is doing. I keep things calm and steady, and I stick to your dog's routine so they feel at home. I work mostly from home and have a PT job outside of the home where I mostly work short evening shifts from 4 - 8 pm. Other than that, I am home for morning, afternoon, and evening walks and to care for your pet's needs. Your dog's safety is my top priority. I work mostly from home, so your pup has company for most of the day. I have occasional late-afternoon shifts from 4 to 8 pm, and on those days your dog gets a good walk and potty break right before I leave and again as soon as I get home. My townhouse is pet-proofed, doors and gates stay closed, and walks are always on-leash. I follow your instructions for feeding, medications, and routines, and I'll check in with photos and updates so you never have to wonder. If anything comes up, you'll hear from me right away, and I'll have your vet's info and emergency contacts handy.

About: I will treat your furry friends like family. Whether it's a weekend getaway or a long-term trip, you can rest easy knowing your pets are in loving, professional hands. Trust us to provide personalized care, cuddles, and companionship while you're away—because they deserve the best, and so do you! I am available 7 days a week and committed to providing compassionate, loving care for your loved pets in the comfort of their/ my home. I live in an end-unit townhome with ample yard space, providing a comfortable and secure environment for your pet. For added safety, I have a yard line to keep your dog secure during their stay. Additionally, I have plenty of toys and treats to keep your pet entertained and comfortable.

About: I have always loved animals since I was a child. I am the go-to pet sitter for friends and family. I have gained experience in providing reliable and loving care for a variety of pets. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, feeding or offering companionship. I am dedicated to ensuring every pet gels happy and well cared for. Working remotely allows me the flexibility to provide attentive and consistent care for your pets, whether in my home or yours. I own a comfortable home with access to a yard and walking trail. I am available on weekends, and thanks to my remote work schedule I am able to offer care at all hours during the week. Your pets safety and well-being are my top priorities. I own my own home, which provides a secure and comfortable environment for your furry family members. I currently only have axolotls, which require minimal attention, allowing me to focus entirely on your pets. I ensure a clean, safe and loving environment. I am committed to building trust with both pets and their owners and I am happy to provide regular updates and pictures as requested.

About: I bring a strong foundation of trust, safety, and attentiveness from my background in law enforcement, along with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with everything from high-energy, working breeds that require structure and engagement, to puppies needing patience and consistency, as well as older dogs who benefit from a calmer, attentive approach. I have experience with basic obedience reinforcement, leash handling, and reading canine behavior to ensure safe, positive interactions at all times. I’m also knowledgeable in pet safety and emergency awareness, with training that supports quick, calm decision-making if needed. As someone who prioritizes physical health and an active lifestyle, I enjoy providing dogs with the exercise, stimulation, and attention they need to stay happy and well-balanced. Whether your dog needs structured walks, playtime, or just reliable, loving care while you’re away, I’m confident and comfortable handling it all. I currently work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care throughout the day. I’m typically available from the early morning through the evening, with the most flexibility during daytime hours. Because my schedule is adaptable, I’m able to work around each pet’s individual routine—whether that means an early-morning walk, a midday check-in, feeding, playtime, or evening care. I’m open to adjusting my availability when needed and working with owners to find a schedule that best fits their pets’ needs. My goal is to make pet care feel consistent, reliable, and stress-free for both you and your pet while you’re away. As a former law enforcement officer, safety, responsibility, and trust have always been at the heart of what I do. I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving both your pet and your home in someone else’s care—and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. When caring for your pet, I treat your home with the same respect and attention to detail I would expect in my own. I’m mindful of doors, gates, alarms, keys, access points, and anything else that helps keep your home secure while you’re away. I’m also attentive to your pet’s surroundings and routines to help prevent accidents, escapes, or anything that could put them at risk. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. I take the time to understand their personality, routines, needs, and boundaries rather than treating every pet the same. Whether your dog is energetic and playful, needs extra patience, is shy around new people, or simply wants some companionship, I’m happy to meet them where they are. You can have peace of mind knowing that your pet is receiving attentive, dependable care—and that your home is being treated with the same level of respect and responsibility. I’m also happy to provide updates, photos, and communication throughout the visit so you never have to wonder how things are going. My goal is for you to feel confident and reassured from the moment you hand over the leash to the moment you walk back through your door.

“Samantha has been taking care of this little fur family in various forms for a couple years now. I always feel confident that she is making sure they are getting what is needed and all the snuggles. Thank you!”

About: Ive always loved animals my whole life I’ve had puppy’s,dogs,cats,kittens,hamsters,guinea pigs,bunny’s,chinchillas,horses,chickens,and fish I’ve always loved taking care of animals it’s been something I’ve done since 8 years old I’ve always said I like animals more then people and something about taking care of them just brings me peace I’ve taken care of the animals by always making sure they have food and fresh water and by training them and always making sure they have lots of enrichment and love I do also have experience with taking care of sick animals giving them their medication,applying any needed creams and changing their bandages.

About: I’ve taken care of many doggies and kitties in my last 10 years. I can walk them, feed them (any allowed treats will be given), I can administer their medication. I also take care of kitties! I clean litter boxes, feed them, play with them and give them premium chin scratches! It fits perfectly. I love to create a routine with regular walks and form bonds with the kitties or puppies! I am not afraid of any breed, they are all puppies in my eyes. I make them as comfortable as possible, I treat them with respect and love. I always follow the directions provided by the owner to the letter!

About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover, and caring for dogs has been a big part of my life for years! I’m a proud husky dad to Obi, and I’ve also spent years helping care for my family’s French Bulldogs and Great Danes. So I’ve experienced just about everything, from energetic huskies who always want another walk, to stubborn little Frenchies with big personalities, to Great Danes who think they’re lap dogs! Having experience with such different breeds has taught me that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, and I also welcome opportunities to care for cats. What sets me apart is that I don’t look at pet sitting as simply feeding an animal and letting them outside. I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, playing, going for walks, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I also understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own, and I’m always happy to send pictures and updates so you know they’re doing great while you’re away! I work in the mortgage industry, which gives me some flexibility with my daily schedule. Being a dog dad myself, taking care of animals is already part of my everyday routine! I’m used to making time for walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I enjoy staying active, so having another four-legged friend along for a walk is always a bonus. I’m available for weekday and weekend care depending on my schedule, and I’m happy to work with owners to make sure their pets’ routines are maintained as closely as possible. Whether it’s an overnight stay, a weekend getaway, or a quick check-in, I want to make things as easy as possible for both you and your pet! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person you’re leaving your pet with. I live in a townhome with my husky, Obi, who is a big part of my life. Before welcoming another dog into my home, I like to arrange a meet-and-greet to make sure everyone is comfortable and gets along. I understand that every pet has different needs, whether that’s extra exercise, a quiet place to relax, a specific feeding schedule, or just some extra attention. I’m careful about following each owner’s instructions, keeping dogs secure during walks and outdoor time, and making sure pets are supervised and comfortable. When caring for pets in their own homes, I respect their space and do my best to keep their normal routine consistent. I’m also happy to provide regular photos and updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are being well cared for!

“Alexandria was awesome! She was very responsive and made sure to send pictures and updates upon visiting. Both my cats seemed very mellow and relaxed when I returned! They were very well taken care of. Would 100% recommend!”

About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, birds and a wide variety of other animals. I’m excited to meet your pet and provide them everything they need! As a student in wildlife biology I have a fairly flexible schedule. Please contact me about days that are not immediately listed on my profile. Walks, cuddles, feeding, playing, medicating, cleaning up after, and general husbandry/enrichment are just the start of what I can provide for your pets. Please let me know about any particular services you may need!

About: I have had pets most of my life. I've experienced the highs and lows of loving another critter. I would love the opportunity to be a positive for your critter, pup, or cat while you are away. I will provide loving care and attention to your loved ones. I am an elementary teacher. I am able to travel to your location before work (7am) and after work (3pm) most week days and available for weekend beginning Friday at 3pm until I have a large 4' and 5' fenced yard with trees on a nice corner lot. Lots of space for running, playing, and lounging in the shade or bathing in in sunlight.

About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life and have always been a natural animal lover — animals tend to love me just as much as I love them. I currently have a few cats and live with my best friend, who has a dog of her own that I help care for regularly (she’s basically mine too!). I also have hands-on experience working with dogs from spending a couple of years at a doggy daycare, where I learned how to care for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m currently a server, and with it being the slow season right now, my availability is very flexible and open for most days and times. I love caring for pets in their own homes, where they feel safe and comfortable. I follow all routines, feeding schedules, and special instructions so your pet gets consistent care and plenty of attention. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just snuggles, I make sure your pet feels happy, loved, and well looked-after while you’re away.
