About: While I do not have professional dog care experience, I was placed in charge of caring for my old boss's dogs (Black Lab and Great Dane), one of which I helped raise from a puppy. I have learned how to crate train, as well. I have also cared for family and friends' dogs, including overnight stays and administering medicines. I am primarily available in the early morning or late afternoon - evening. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays would be the best days to schedule with me! I make sure that my cats get enough attention, and have plenty of toys to occupy them. I am also working on crate training my cat so she'll stop clawing up our furniture. My cats are fed daily with occasional treats if they've been behaving. their litter boxes are cleaned daily, as well. When I care for a client's pets, I will take care of them in the way that their owner would care for them, but with a touch of how I would, as well.

About: I have taken care of all different kinds of dogs from sizes and breeds since I was a kid. Throughout my life I’ve had several dogs all types of different breeds and sizes, from a mastiff to a miniature poodle. So, I have lots experience in dealing with dogs in different ranges with breed,size, and age. I also have experience with cats, hedgehogs, guinea pigs, and hamsters. I am working full time currently, I am off on the weekends unless and normally completely free these days. I work during the day most days. I usually work evenings one day out of the week,tuesdays. I am very flexible outside of my time with work! I currently have a dog and 3 cats. With my dog we feed him in the morning and evening, throughout the day I usually play with my dog let him out to go potty, and a couple walks throughout the day to keep them moving. I also feed my cats morning and night and play with them throughout the day and clean their litter box in the evening.

Kimberly was so attentive to all of our dogs needs! She made sure they were safe, happy, & healthy. We have more high maintenance dogs and she was the perfect sitter for them. In addition to making sure our dogs were perfectly taken care of, she went above and beyond with house sitting too! My house is going to be sad I’m back because Kimberly took such great care of the house and garden! 🥰

About: I’ve taken care of many types of animals growing up from horses to cat and dogs. I’m very confident in walking any dog any size, since in my school we’ve learned to adjust and adapt on animals behavior. I also can do any grooming needed (nails, brush teeth, bathe) if you can’t or too wary. I’ve also have well experience in cats. Ive owned cats since I was 15 so if needed I can also do any grooming needs as well. With senior dogs I know they may be more work than a normal dog but I’m up to the task without a second thought! I’ve had much experience with senior dogs. I understand that having animal comes with time management and that’s where I can help! I am current in vet tech school so I have the weekends available and Friday after 4:30pm. I am also willing to go after school mon-Friday after 4:30pm. For the animals in my house they get treated just like a member of the family! I make sure my cat and dog are always content, I take my dog out on daily walks and ensure my cat gets his daily play time. For the animals of your home they will be treated just the same.

This passion led me to expand my expertise into dog walking and pet sitting. **Key Experience:** 1. **Dog Walking:** I have successfully managed dog walking for various clients, ranging from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing gentle strolls. My approach focuses on ensuring each dog receives the appropriate level of exercise and attention. 2. **Behavioral Understanding:** Having worked with dogs displaying a range of behaviors, I am adept at recognizing signs of stress or discomfort. This allows me to adjust walks and interactions accordingly, ensuring a positive experience for every dog. 3. **Training Techniques:** I incorporate basic training techniques into walks, reinforcing commands like sit, stay, and recall. This not only aids in their training but also enhances our communication during walks. 4. **Health and Safety:** I am knowledgeable about canine first aid and recognize the signs of common health issues. I carry a first aid kit on walks and am prepared to handle any minor emergencies. 5. **Socialization:** I believe in the importance of socialization for dogs, so I provide opportunities for them to interact with other dogs in a controlled manner during group walks, promoting good behavior and confidence. 6. **Client Communication:** I maintain open communication with pet owners, providing regular updates on their dogs' activities and well-being. I understand the importance of trust and transparency in pet care. 7. **References:** I have received positive feedback from numerous clients who appreciate my reliability, attentiveness, and the genuine love I have for their pets.

About: I’ve always been around pets since I was little, whether it be dogs, cats, etc. I know how to care for them. I started doing Rover about 4 years ago, but had to stop due personal reasons and now I’m back on here. I have done multiple sittings before, so I can assure you I know what I’m doing and you will be pleased. I have worked with all types of dogs/cats. Pictures included in my profile: My own dog, some of the pets ( not all) that I have sat for, and pictures of myself. Just graduated from college a couple months ago. Still on the market for a job, so I am available every day of the week as of right now. Once I get a job, my schedule will change. I have a lot of experience with oral medication and shots with my own pets, so If you need that as well it won’t be a problem. I’ve had to crate my dogs before so I could do the same with yours if needed. I like to walk my dogs a lot and be very active with them, so if that’s what you need then i’m your guy.

About: Christina is a lover and protector of all animals. Any animal she meets, she loves like her own! Growing up, she had German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Pit bulls, Rabbits, Guinea Pigs, Horses, Cats, Birds, Fish, and Goats. From pet sitting, long or short walks, and of course taking care of her own ShiPoo Buddy Boo, she has experience with it all! She has also administered medication to cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. Her passion is pets and will love yours too! I have an open availability with a flexible schedule. I work part time from home so I'm always available for the pets that I care for. I prefer to watch pets in their own environment since they would be more comfortable there. My dedication is to your pet, their safety and health.

Samantha is an amazing animal caregiver. Her and my Pittie Suede were the best of friends before he passed. She was very gentle and patient with him. He was fifteen, she would bathe him and clip his nails and take him on short walks that he could handle throughout the day. She even helped me look into better animal healthcare providers. She’s an amazing person as well as a pets best friend. If I get another dog I’m booking with her hands down.

About: I’ve always been around pets since I was little, whether it be dogs, cats, etc. I know how to care for them. I started doing Rover about 4 years ago, but had to stop due personal reasons and now I’m back on here. I have done multiple sittings before, so I can assure you I know what I’m doing and you will be pleased. I have worked with all types of dogs/cats. Pictures included in my profile: My own dog, some of the pets ( not all) that I have sat for, and pictures of myself. Just graduated from college a couple months ago. Still on the market for a job, so I am available every day of the week as of right now. Once I get a job, my schedule will change. I have a lot of experience with oral medication and shots with my own pets, so If you need that as well it won’t be a problem. I’ve had to crate my dogs before so I could do the same with yours if needed. I like to walk my dogs a lot and be very active with them, so if that’s what you need then i’m your guy.

About: Christina is a lover and protector of all animals. Any animal she meets, she loves like her own! Growing up, she had German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Pit bulls, Rabbits, Guinea Pigs, Horses, Cats, Birds, Fish, and Goats. From pet sitting, long or short walks, and of course taking care of her own ShiPoo Buddy Boo, she has experience with it all! She has also administered medication to cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. Her passion is pets and will love yours too! I have an open availability with a flexible schedule. I work part time from home so I'm always available for the pets that I care for. I prefer to watch pets in their own environment since they would be more comfortable there. My dedication is to your pet, their safety and health.

Ken was great. My dogs fell in love with him. they ask about him every day. Ken is very pragmatic, has a list he goes over. I will only use him moving forward. This is is full time gig. Thus it isn't a hobby, or a side job. He takes this very seriously. It showed!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Marissa was wonderful with our two pups, Lyla and Athena. She kept us up to date and informed on how they were doing without us and ensured they got plenty of snuggles and attention—which is what we worry about the most with being gone! Will book with Marissa again(:
