“Kari was awesome! I’ve never had a cat sitter before, and she put all my worry at ease. Detailed and sent me plenty of pictures of my cat to ensure her health and safety. I am definitely using her again!”
About: I have a lot of experience with various animals besides dogs and cats. I also have worked with live stock, lizards and exotics. I worked at a massive boarding kennel were I learned to administrate various medications pills and insulin shots, learned basic training techniques, and over all general care for domestic animals. From this experience I started my own pet sitting business which I did off and on for a few years. Then pick up some business for a little extra cash in dog walking and pet sitting. I have taken a break from that to raise my daughter and become more established at my current job, but miss working with animals and would like to get back to helping those I can. I mainly would like to assist in dog walking, but if some pet sitting needs to be had, I'd be more than happy to assist there as well. I found from working in the boarding kennel, many dogs do find it more comfortable in a home setting then a kennel. I do work full time, M-Th 6:30 to 5 pm. I can take in 1 to 2 dogs in my home during this time, I do have a dog door and do come home for an hr for lunch. I do have a dog, so any dogs in my home would need to get along with mine. However, I can do dog walking in the evenings on Thursdays starting at 6 pm to 8 pm during summer months. Otherwise Fridays and weekends are best. Any time Friday, though occasionally I may not be available in the afternoons due to dropping off my daughter, Sat I can be available anytime, and Sunday Mornings and Evenings are best. Some afternoons are available if I don't have to pick up my daughter. I have a dog door with a 4 ft fence and a 6 ft fence on the sides separating my neighbors and I. If your dog is playful, I have a very playful and submissive dog. I'm very respectful of other peoples space and am great at communicating the needs of the owner for their pet. I'm accustomed to following written instructions and do like to meet ahead of time to meet the pet and go over feeding and/or medication instructions. I may have my 5 year old daughter with me, however, if the animal does not do well with children, please communicate that so no incidences happen. If I cannot have my daughter around, will be harder for me to commit to any sort of sitting or walking.
“Jazmine did a fab job with my old puppy. He was applied and loved while I had to be out of town. I’ve never used a sitter before, but would ABSOLUTELY use this lovely human again.”
About: I have personally owned dogs as long as I can remember. From Rottweilers to Chihuahuas. I have dog sat numerous times, between boarding at my house and house sitting at a client’s home. I’m a true dog-lover at heart. I love dogs in all shapes and sizes. They are the most loving and most loyal. They really are better than most people! Lol. I have a sweet, energetic, laid-back, one and a half year old mini poodle. I also have a 3 year old hedgehog, but since he’s nocturnal and likes to keep to himself, pets don’t interact with him. He’s caged in my room and will be out of the way. I also have experience in taking care of senior dogs including: administering meds, feeding picky eaters, helping with potty breaks, helping with walks, etc. I have personally trained all of the dogs that I have owned. I have lots of puppy experience and don’t believe in “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks.” as I have also trained older dogs that I have rescued. I currently work from home and I am usually off by late afternoon/early evening. I can be home with your baby. We can play and take as many potty breaks as needed. I also don’t work on the weekends and like to fill my weekends up with fun activities! I have a fenced in backyard and a safe neighborhood to go on walks. Your doggo would have complete freedom of the house (as long as I’m home, of course). Doggies are allowed on the furniture and allowed to sleep with me. If they are crate trained, of course that’s okay too.
“Maila is an exceptional sitter! She has cared for our cat on several occasions and he is so content with her (which is not customary for him). We feel so at ease when Maila is caring for our fur baby!”
“Makayla has been a great and reliable sitter for our cat Hobbes. She made sure to include lots of photos for each visit and responded quickly to questions. She made us feel like our cat was well cared for.”
“Hallie was able to help us out last minutes when we had a flight get canceled. She went in without being able to do a meet and greet and was able to take care of our pets until the next day when we could get home. Can’t wait to do a proper meet and greet and use her again!”
About: Since I was young, I’ve had a special connection with animals. I’ve grown up with pets my whole life. I’ve also been a foster parent for dogs with special needs until they find their forever home. I have house sat and pet sat for many family and friends and have been providing these services through rover for the past 2.5 years. I’m a healthcare worker, and have done home health in the past so I’m comfortable going into others homes. I’m reliable, responsible and trustworthy. I can guarantee your home and pets will be in great care. I do work full time Monday-Thursday. I’m off Friday-Sunday and have full availability for dog walking and pet sitting during the weekend. During the week I can go back to the home and spend time with your animals during my hour lunch. I’m available for overnight petsitting in your home 7 days a week. I live in an apartment, so I can bring small animals in for pet daycare. I have a small yard, but plenty of area for long walks outside my home. I also offer house sitting/pet sitting in the clients home.
“Melissa took excellent care of our cats Bindi and Sophie while we were on vacation. Bindi tends to overeat so we never leave large amounts of cat food in their dishes. Melissa came to our home twice a day to check on the kitties and manage their eating habits. The kitties are very shy so they usually ran under a bed when Melissa arrived. She tried to send us a picture of them at each visit but they preferred to hide! No matter. Bindi and Sophie were in excellent spirits when we came home. We will definitely use Melissa’s services again.”
“Jon was amazing with our dogs! We have one dog who has a lot of anxiety and is very timid and Jon was wonderful at noticing his needs and taking care of him. We will definitely book with Jon again!”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5 and my dad is a professional dog trainer so I’ve had a bunch of experience with dogs and puppies. I’ve had from small dogs to quite large and often I would pet sit for my parents when they’d need to go on trips. I want to be a dog trainer and care taker as a professional career once I earn enough money to go to school for it. I’m very flexible with days and time. About to help my dad with the new litter of German shepherds he’s breeding this fall. So anything from care to training I can take care of and I’m okay with changing plans as long as it’s a couple days before. Thank you for you time!

Renata S.
“Renata has always been a fantastic dog parent! She is responsible and truly loves dogs. She goes the extra mile for them and they all love her. Even her two own would rather hang out with her even more than hanging out with anyone else or even any of the dogs! She has had a dog since she was 5 years old and has solely taken care of all of them! She is an avid walker using apple health and step bet to get her steps in. All the dogs love walking with her. She is so compassionate and kind and has a heart for all living animals!”

“While Lauren lived in our rural neighborhood, she was the go to person to take care of your animals while you were away.

She was always great with them. I highly recommend her.”
