“Dogs were fed, got attention and time outside, and happy! We left some detailed directions because one dog will get destructive when left alone, and Billy was great about making sure those things got done. Thank you so much! Would definitely reach out to him again”

“Kristen did such an amazing job caring for our dogs while we were away. Our plans changed slightly and she was very accommodating and responsive to help however needed, which we appreciated so much. Will use her anytime we can and highly recommend, thank you!”

“Tristan was awesome! We have a 16 year old large dog Gigi who can be skittish with new people and Tristan was patient and kind and won Gigi over. I highly recommend Tristan!”

“Woof woof…. Miss Kaylyn stopped in to see us while Mum and Dad went on something called "Date Night", whatever that is! We don't like being left on our own but Miss Kaylyn gave us lots of lovies, cuddles and treats. She took lots of pictures and sent them to Mum and Dad so they would know we were being the bestest puppies! We give Miss Kaylyn 5 paws out of 5. We highly recommend and will have her come back, or stay with her, as soon as we can convince Mum and Dad to go away again! Mum here…. Not sure how the puppies managed to type this without me seeing, but we agree with everything they said. Kaylyn is very communicative, sends photos and updates and both our pups fell in love with her when she came by to meet them.... says everything we need to know! We will most definitely book with her soon. Its so great knowing we have someone to love on and care for our pups when we cant be here.”

“Errin is great! She did fantastic with my 220+ lb English Mastiff who tends to intimidate a lot of people (for obvious reasons). But, he absolutely loved her! Her personality is light, outgoing and happy which really makes a difference to dogs who can generally sense that kind of stuff. This was the first time I've left my pup overnight in three years and I was a bit nervous about it. But, I instantly felt better knowing that Errin would be looking after him. She was prompt, overly communicative and thorough! Will absolutely be using her again! Thanks a ton!”

About: I've been working as a dog groomer for the past two years, but had to pause that to focus on my health. I've volunteered walking dogs in animal shelters, and as a child mucked horse barns and brushed/washed horses in exchange for riding lessons. 😂 I've loved animals my entire life. I was raised in a family of 2-6 dogs (it increased frequently) and will admit only here that I loved them more than I loved my sister! I'm currently coming out of treatment and unemployed, so I have plenty of time to watch your furry friends! My only obligations are a weekly monday appointment and a biweekly friday appointment. I have a very nice, soft voice for any frightened pups, and am told I'm a bit of an animal whisperer. I will do my very best to connect with your animals and individualize my care in any way I can!

“Kalli was awesome! She took excellent care of our pets and gave us regular updates so we didn't have to worry. I would highly recommend her and I'm sure we will be using her again.”
About: I have had animals my whole life, my experience has entailed caring for dogs in their basic needs, maintaining training and working on other commands, as well as taking them to any appointments that were in order. I really enjoy time spent with dogs, and just like me I understand that most people consider their dogs to be family. I like meeting new dogs and learning all their little personalities. I would be great as a sitter or walker because I genuinely care about animals and feel that they make life so much more fun and enjoyable. I have experience with both larger breeds and small breeds so I am comfortable around all different kinds. I wish I could have more animals so this is the only acceptable alternative :)
About: Hey there, welcome! I’m newly married and my husband and I bought a home here in Bertram the summer of 2024. We have 2 dogs, 2 cats, a bearded dragon, and 3 fish. I’m looking forward to meeting neighbors and their loved fur babies! I’ve been working as a veterinary technician for about 6 years now, mostly in emergency and specialty surgeries. I have experience from young puppies and kittens to seniors. I currently work a rotating overnight shift in emergency so let me know your needs and your pets needs. If you would like additional references or information, don’t hesitate to message me to find your answers! Let me know what attracted you to my Rover page! I work a rotating overnight shift at an emergency hospital. This schedule includes every other weekend. Let me know what your normal home routine looks like! Earning trust and going at the animals pace to warm up to each other. I’d love to know where they love to be pet or their favorite toys and/or activities.
About: As a dedicated animal lover, I stand out with my deep understanding of canine/human interaction, and I offer personalized care tailored to each dog's needs. I am an expert handler of various breeds, administering medication, and creating a stress-free environment for your pet. With a genuine love for dogs and a knack for anticipating their needs, I ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and entertained while you're away. I have two dogs of my own, Rocky, a 5.5 yr old Belgian Malinois, and Lola, a 3 yr old Golden Retriever/Border Collie mix. Your pet will have all of the fun they can handle and will leave with 3 new best friends! I work from home 5 days a week and have incredible flexibility. I am home most of the of the time and when I am not, I am usually not too far away for too long. I can provide breaks and all the attention your pet needs almost anytime needed. I have 2 dogs to help keep your pups happy. Lola is the friendliest girl with lots of energy and an unrelenting desire to make new friends everywhere she goes. Rocky, is a retired police k9 who has the perfect balance of energy and calmness to welcome any new pup into our home. I routinely let them outside to play and use the restroom at a minimum of once every 2 hours. My pets are allowed anywhere in the house. It is two stories with multiple rooms so there are always places for them to have space if they need it. There are plenty of beds, toys, and friends to play with while they are here! I do have two large kennels that I never use, but if your pet prefers to sleep in a kennel in its own space, I am happy to provide that for them. Otherwise, they will be free to relax wherever they would like.
About: My family has owned hunting dogs for years, giving me hands-on experience with dogs of all ages and energy levels. I’ve helped with training, reinforcing good behavior, daily walks, exercise, feeding, and plenty of affection. I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and safety when caring for pets. Whether your dog loves outdoor adventures or just wants extra cuddles and attention, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m available at almost any time, as I don’t start school until August! I can stay over night on most weekends, but just check with me to be sure! I have a portable crate that can take small-medium dogs or cats on adventures! I can do walks, clean up, playtime, sleepovers and lots of cuddles!
“After being gone for a long day, and you come home to happy pups. There is no greater feeling than knowing that they have been loved and cherished by someone else when you were unable to spend your entire day with them! Shima not only ran around and played with my fur babies, but gave them the extra special attention and love that they cherish. I highly recommend Shima and will definitely hire her again for any future pet sitting services I may need!”

“Nathan is amazing. He’s thorough and SO communicative. He sent pet pictures and videos the entire time, and even when Diesel was being a little hellion was so patient and even spent some extra time with him to calm him down. Please use him, you won’t regret it. He’s going to be my regular sitter moving forward!!”

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life, growing up in a home full of pets, which sparked my passion for caring for them. I spent four years working in the veterinary field, gaining hands-on experience and deepening my love for animal care. During that time, I worked as a kennel technician for two years and as a veterinary technician assistant for another two years, providing attentive, compassionate care to pets of all shapes and sizes. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, which gives me plenty of free time during the week to dedicate to pet care. I’m able to provide consistent attention, companionship, and care for pets on a regular basis, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I have a friendly 7-year-old dog who loves companionship and playtime! I also have a huge fenced yard, perfect for pets to safely run and enjoy the outdoors.
About: I’m a special education teacher with a patient, caring, and dependable personality. I treat every dog like family, follow routines closely, and provide plenty of love, attention, and updates while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I am on summer vacation and need extra income. I love pets, my family loves pets, and we just would love to have your pet feel like they are at home! I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide fresh water, meals according to their schedule, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions carefully. I also provide regular photo and text updates so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.
About: I have personally had pets since the day I was born, mostly dogs and cats, but also a snake and hamster, I started pet sitting when I was 14 and have experience with caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, and horses. I know that your pet is a part of the family with a routine, personality, and individual needs so I am very conscientious about owner advice and instructions when it comes to their fur (or not so furry) baby. I love spending time with animals and where I live I can not unfortunately have dogs (I do have two cats though) so I feel the Oppertunity to walk dogs and do check ins on animals would be a fantastic way to get to spend time around them again. I currently work part-time, so I have plenty of availability throughout the day and week to give your pets the time, care, and attention they deserve. Depending on the energy and type of animal as well as owner instructions I adjust my care schedule to thier needs. I either do drop in visits to a clients home or house sit in their home.
“Chelsey is amazing. She is kind, professional, and our dog Maggie loved her immediately. Chelsey took the time to get to know our dog, her play and food habits, and she makes sure Maggie is loved for the entire visit. My fiance and I loved meeting Chelsey so we booked weekly recurring visits to help Maggie have more fun when we are at work.”
