About: I have had pets since I was born. I currently live with four dogs and two cats and help take care of them. I can walk dogs on short and long walks. I can house sit any pets or check in as needed. I have a cat of my own named Clementine. She is an affectionate two year old who loves to play. My sister has a cat of her own named Ace. She is six and prefers her space. She will find you when she wants attention or wants to play. My parents have four dogs. The oldest is Ripley at eleven years old. She loves affection and to cuddle. Penny is a Westie mix who is eight years old. She is a sassy dog who will wrestle her way into getting love. Her brother, Balin, is an eight year old German Shepherd. When he is not barking at one of the neighbors walking on the sidewalk, he loves to play ball or play with his sisters. The youngest dog is Artemis. She is a two year old German Shepherd who cannot stop moving. She loves to play and be outside for as long as she can. I work Monday through Thursday from 8am to 3pm. I am free Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I give pets amble opportunity before I go to work to use the bathroom, eat, and stretch their legs before I leave. When I get back I take the pets out immediately and feed them when scheduled. If I do leave the house, I try not to be gone for more than 4-6 hours. I can follow all of the instructions to the letter. I understand everyone has preferences how their pet is taken care of. I would love to know any quirks or routines your pets may have. I like to update after every visit. For house sitting, I will send photos and an update in the morning and another one in the afternoon. I can provide more updates if desired.

Anna was absolutely fantastic! She sent photos everyday keeping me comfortable that my girl was taken well care of and enjoying her presence as well. She was a wonderful house guest and went above and beyond to make it seem like she wasn’t even there. I will definitely be booking Anna in the future.

This was our first time using someone outside of the family to watch our 13 year old dog. We needed someone who could stay at our house while we were gone because our dog wouldn't do well in a kennel type of environment. We were told about Rover by a friend and when I looked, I saw Warren's 5 star reviews. We had him come by and meet our dog and see if it he would be able to provide the care that our dog needed. Afterwards, we were convinced that Warren was the right one for the job. During our trip we were sent pictures of our dog and updates. After our return, we found that our dog was doing well and we were more than satisfied with the job that Warren had done. We would definitely recommend Warren to anyone in our area looking for a sitter, and we will definitely use him again when needed in the future.

Bethany was my first house sitter and she was amazing throughout the entire process. It was my first time booking a house sitting, and I had zero anxiety from start to finish letting an unfamiliar person into my home with her. She provided constant updates as the days went by, with pictures of everything also! Upon meeting she was very inquisitive about what care needed to be provided for my doggo, and she exceeded all expectations. My only regret was not booking her for the whole two weeks during my out of town venture. I very highly recommend her for any pet needs you have, and look forward to utilizing her services again!

About: I have owned multiple dogs in my adulthood. I currently own a 4 year old golden who I have personally trained, and a 1.5 year old who I work with every day. I have worked at a dog day care for 5 months where I learned more about dog body language and how to diffuse any fights. I have walked and babysat dogs for friends. I consider all dogs to be my friends, because there is no such things as a bad dog. I work 12 hour night shifts Friday-Sunday. I am completely available Monday-Thursday. Because my weeks are so open then I can spend more time taking care of pups who may need extra walks. I have a friendly golden retriever who is 4 years old. She loves to play! She does great with other dogs (she used to have a brother) but also knows how to cuddle and chill. Hazel is 1.5 years old and still has crazy puppy energy. Neither walk without a treat bag in hand to keep training a daily activity.

About: I've had at least one cat almost constantly for the past 55 years. I've had at least one dog practically every day for the past 30 years. My dogs have all been large breed animals but I have also provided care for members of my family who have a small dog. I currently have 2 cats and a dog. I've given medicine orally and through injection, clip nails, and conduct basic grooming. Tricks, treats, and cuddles are my specialty.

About: I’ve grown up caring for multiple dogs and currently help care for four dogs at home, including one with a paralyzed esophagus who requires extra attention and specialized feeding care. Through this experience, I’ve become very patient, responsible, and comfortable following detailed care instructions. I also have experience with walking, feeding, administering routines, and making pets feel safe and comfortable. I truly love animals and understand how important it is for pet owners to trust the person caring for them. I’m currently on summer break, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for walks, dropins, boarding, and overnight stays. I’m reliable with feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications, and making sure pets get lots of attention, exercise, and love while their owners are away. I have experience caring for multiple dogs, including one with a paralyzed esophagus who requires extra attention and specialized care. Because of this, I’m very patient, detail oriented, and comfortable following strict feeding or medication instructions. I always prioritize safety, supervision, and making pets feel comfortable and loved in both my home and my client’s home.

April is seriously the sweetest. She helped us out with a last-minute work trip and still showed up with so much care even while going through a hard time herself. Our dogs were happy and well taken care of and that gave us so much peace of mind. We truly appreciate her and would 100% love working with her again. 💛

About: I have always loved all kinds of animals! I have experience with numerous kinds of dogs and cats, of all ages and demeanors. I have housesat and pet sat since I was in High School, and can help look after your plant babies as well. I also have Volunteer experience at my local dog shelter, so I know how to deal with dogs in high stress environments. I do work afternoons on Monday, Thursday, and Saturday, but even then, I am free beforehand and am always back before dinner time. I will prioritize your pet and can offer to go over multiple times a day, and I’m free the whole day when I don’t have work! I prefer to care for pets in clients homes since they are more used to their environment and because I have roommates at my home.

Ananda did an amazing job with my little pack! Including my blind, senior girl who needs extra TLC. I never worried about them, as she would check in and send pictures—-which was great as I was out of the country. We will definitely have Ananda visit again on my next trip away from my furkids!

Gabriel did a great job taking care of our dog, Lexi. He was responsible, attentive, and made sure to meet her specific needs. We could tell she was well cared for while we were away, and that gave us real peace of mind. Highly recommend Gabriel to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!

About: I've been taking care of my dogs for as long as I can remember. I always make sure to feel out the dogs I'm with and treat every dog with their own specific set of needs. I have exience with anxious dogs, intensely active dogs, brushing my pet Pyranese and many other types of dogs. Please let me know as soon as possible when you'll be needing care so I can fit it into my schedule. Despite trying my best to be as flexible as possible for people, I often have people ask for a sitter and then ghost me. If you do not need services from me or change your mind let me know as soon as possible. I will not reschedule meet and greets. I can do a lot of interactive playing with dogs that need to and am very good at tiring dogs out with walks that include allowing them to experience all the sensory things they want. Sometimes I take my own dog to fields. Or if a dog is looking for attention if just to be left alone I can do that too.

Chelsea D. Was super easy to talk to. She offered a meet and greet. That was perfect, she spent time to get to know the doggies and their needs. She arrived early on the day she set for our fur babies, that relieved us from stress. She’s a natural with pets with separation anxiety! When we arrived back home our one lil man that has separation anxiety showed no signs of stress, that was so comforting to us. The other two were very happy also. Looks like all 3 have a new friend. We will most definitely use Chelsea D. again! Thank you for sitting our babies!

Brittney was great as usual. She always makes sure my babies and my house is well taken care of. She keeps me updated on how they are doing and even made sure this time my baby that had surgery recently took it easy. My babies love her and I am so grateful that I can travel with a peace of mind. Thanks again Brittney!!
