About: I am a dog mom to two dachshunds named Bexley and Maeve. Bexley and Maeve love to have visitors to share their toys and treats with. We live in a townhouse that has access to a fenced in backyard and a fenced in dog park. We also love to drive 2 minutes down the road for a long walk at Highview Park. I do work from home, so I can give your furchild all the attention he/she wants or needs, which is why I only take 1-3 small dogs at a time. Should you decide to pick our home for your furchild's stay, you can expect frequent updates with photos and/or videos. Overall, my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furchild is well loved while you are away. 🩷 I work from home which gives me the ability to provide constant attention and care. My work hours allow me to prioritize exercise and extra cuddles on the couch. I have a fenced in backyard that has a doggy door for easy access. We like to take walks 3 times a day if weather permits. If the weather is bad, we love to play tag and chase balls inside. To wind down in the evening, we love to snuggle on the couch and watch movies. Overnight, the dogs are permitted to sleep in the bed.
“After hiring a few bad Rover walkers, Emma has restored our hope in the service platform. We’re so glad we found her! I know that every day she sees our puppy, Emma will walk her for the amount of time we pay her to. She’s been amazing with following out instructions, and always goes above and beyond. On a rainy day, Emma even brought her own towel to make sure our puppy would be dry! She takes the time to write a brief description of every walk, so I know if our puppy spent the morning chewing up the fence or playing with her Kong. Emma has been very respectful of our home. We haven’t had any issues with her going through our house or helping herself to anything. She doesn’t smoke before coming into our house, making our house smell like smoke— which has been an issue in the past. On a day when our puppy was particularly bored and ripped up a bunch of papers, Emma even asked where the broom was, so we didn’t have to come home to a mess! We’re really happy that our puppy is so well cared for!”
About: I have over 7 years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities—from small breed seniors to high-energy breeds. Jinger (My own pup) is a 6-year-old Female Malinois-Lab mix, so I’m especially familiar with energetic dogs who need structure, attention, and enrichment to thrive. Over the years, I’ve cared for puppies, seniors, rescues, and dogs with unique needs—including leash reactivity, anxiety, and medical routines. The wonderful folks at Southside pet shop had taught me Animal Husbandry by the book (literally). During my time there I had taken care of a wide variety of pets in a professional setting. I comfortable caring cats, and exotic pets too- I am more than at home in a multi-pet household. I ALWAYS approach every pet with patience and empathy. I understand that every animal is different, so I change my care-style (never quality!) to match their needs—whether that’s a long walk, playtime, cuddles or medical needs. If you need drop-in visits, house sitting, or just someone to give your dog an afternoon potty break, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, understood, and loved. You can expect daily updates and plenty of photos, Rest assured! Pet sitting is my full-time profession and passion, alongside my work as a freelance artist. I have professional experience in animal husbandry; I’m able to provide attentive, reliable care. I enjoy doing both traditional and digital art; my favorite are pet portraits! If there is downtime while I am petsitting, I’m usually doing art! In both my own home and when caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the owners instructions, because I understand this routine is in place to keep them comfortable, and healthy. This includes using toys, treats and games to make their day rewarding and fun. Maintaining a clean environment is a top priority; food and water bowls are washed regularly and I always make sure each pet is fed according to their specified guidelines.
About: Since I was young I have had all types of pets! I’ve always had a love for taking care of mine and my neighbors pets! I’m currently working part time, I have plenty of flexible time to come play and take care of your pets! I can always do Sundays! I can ensure your pets safety and trust by listening and learning to what your pet likes and dislikes to better connect with your pet!
“My dog loves Chloe!!”
“Liz was excellent with Sophie. She took multiple pictures, was flexible, and gave relevant information in her notes. She was by far my favorite Rover person and I would strongly recommend her. My Sophie really like her a lot!”
About: Hey there! I would love to come sit, care, play, walk and watch over your special pet! I have helped take care of many animals as far as I can remember, from farm animals all the way down to your small everyday house pet and there's nothing better than having that love and companionship with them. Having pets of my own I know what it takes to care for them and love them just as they were my own, even if your dog and/or cat might need some extra special care. Please contact me today and ease your mind that your pet is being taken care of and take some time for you and relax, I can't wait to meet you and your pet today! I do have a busy schedule sometimes but taking care of animals is more therapeutic for me than anything and breaks up the daily craziness, who doesn’t love spending their free time with a furbaby! I can’t think of a better way to show pets they are loved than to play with them, make sure they get their exercise, give them treats and give them all the cuddles they want!
