About: New to Rover.com but 10+ years of fostering over 400 babies for local shelters. They were all spoiled by the time they were ready for adoption. (No apologies for that 🙃) Your pet will be well cared for/spoiled while they visit! Love animals and miss fostering I did while in California. Your family member will be in caring hands who has years of experience with puppies and kittens who needed medication. I’m retired and have all the time in the world. 🤭 New home with half acre fenced yard. Have a very active border collie who wants a playmate. My animals have always had the run of the house but I can provide a crate if need be. If you need an extended period of time, let me know. My last foster was 6 months, from a local shelter and was here for over 2 months.


“Michaela did a wonderful job caring for our crazy 3 month old puppy. He was very tired and calm when we picked him up. We also appreciate how flexible she was. We hope to contract her again in the future for day care. Highly recommended!!!”


“Our 6-month-old puppy had his best day ever here! He loved playing in the big fenced yard with the other dogs and I got regular pictures of him during the day having a great time. He was a happy, tired pup when we picked him up!”


“We contacted Val the morning of and she was more than happy to have our Remington over for daycare on such short notice. We were super pleased with the amount of photos and videos that were shared through her Instagram. We found it to be very convenient on staying updated with our pup's activities. We can tell Remington had a blast and hope to book with her again! Thank you Val!”


“Gabriella gave Milo the best care for the price. Gave updates, pictures and videos. Was responsive. And Milo had a great time!! Very reliable and above & beyond service. Thank you Gabriella for watching Milo so last minute. We really appreciate you and would love to use your services again!”


“Took good care of Harvey.”


About: I have been training and caring for dogs for 14 years. I am a Certified Veterinary Assistant and Professional Service, Therapy, and Pet Dog Trainer. I own All About Dogs Training. I train and board dogs out of my home. I have an extremely flexible schedule, so I would be available for all of your pet’s needs at anytime! I live on a 0.5acre lot with a fenced in yard. I have 5 personal dogs who love to play with other dogs of all sizes! I do crate all the dogs in my care overnight and anytime I leave my house.

About: I grew up with animals- my dad raised and bred dogs professionally, and my brother and I helped by taking care of puppies. We also had our house dog and I had cats. Since then, I have raised many dogs, cats, and bunnies. Currently my husband and I live by ourselves and travel a lot so we do not have our own pets, but I miss having animals around and would enjoy helping take care of others’ pets. We have a calm, clean, and happy home. We love animals so much, we are both vegan as well. Your pet will be in the best care! I work from home primarily, sometimes teaching yoga classes in the public space. I also do massage nearby occasionally. My husband is home most of the time as well. We care for pets just as we would our own. We walk regularly and live near a large park and river walk. We are very well organized, and have also taken care of our many children throughout our lives!

About: Hello! I’m Angelica! I’m happy to meet you! Feel free to book me as I am willing to do almost anything to fulfill your pets needs and satisfy you as a customer. I do have experience as I have studied animal anatomy, am/have been a volunteer at near by animal rescues and shelters, and I have three dogs myself (two of which live with me and the third being a family dog)! I love animal and am always willing to learn something new and have plenty of references to help back up all this information! I prefer to do dog sitting in my home since I am able to have free access to emergency kits, constant walks and be able to do boarding at the same time as dog sitting. I have experienced in administering medications as my family dog has seizures and needs round the clock care. I will promise to shower your baby with attention and unconditional love! I am currently working 3rd shift and my partner works 1st. Due to this, there is always someone home with the pups who is able to take them out for potty breaks and spend time with them. I have a fenced in yard that is high enough to prevent any escape artists! I also have two friendly dogs who will be more than happy to run around with your pup and let off some energy!

About: As a big animal lover I’ve always sought ways to spend more time with them in whatever ways I could - be that pet-sitting for friends and family, helping to exercise friend’s dogs when they were busy, to volunteering for the last 12 years at a therapeutic horseback-riding facility. In that time I’ve dedicated to learning as much as I could about dogs, cats, and horses and how to care for and teach them so you can feel secure that your pet will be treated with the utmost kindness, respect, and love, with some dashes of training and fun mixed in. Need someone to care for your furry family member - look no further! I currently deliver packages for Amazon Flex and schedule my blocks day-of (usually only 2 hours or less before they start) so I’m always able to be available if need be. If in your home I can feed, water, walk, snuggle with, give medication, do basic training or exercise your dog and will do so in the most professional manner possible. If your dog is coming over to my home, I have a large, clear fenced in yard where my 11.5 month old Irish Setter has plenty of room to get her energy out daily so you can feel comfortable that your dogs would have ample space to wear themselves out and a super-friendly (and gentle) playmate to help in that endeavor. Afterwards I have a spare XL hard plastic crate if they need time and space to rest or if they are spending the night, along with plenty of fuzzy blankets and toys they can snuggle up with. Whatever it is your looking for, I’m happy to help make you and your dog’s lives happier, healthier and as stress-free as can be!

“We were very pleased with the care our beagle received. Her back yard is fenced which allowed Spencer to be outside without a leash, which he loves. Will use her again, absolutely!”


About: Intuitive dog/cat mom, I will find a way to any canine heart. I grew up with dogs in our house and was taught to treat them no less than family members, having said that, I need to confess I am the worst person when it comes to disciplining a dog, but if you have some simple rules for your canine companion, I will follow them. My own puppy is seven years old and he is a spoiled little one, but is a gentle and sweet young fellow, his sister is a quiet long haired kitty. I love them both so much. I am an artist and a student at IUSB, but I have plenty of time between classes for long walks and other quality care your pets deserve. I live in a quiet neighborhood, overlooking a small pond, there is a fenced dog yard right outside my apartment building as well as many acres of green lawns to frolic upon.

About: Hi! I’m Kelsey and I have a super pet-friendly studio for me and your favorite pup(s) in East Village. When I’m taking care of your cat or dog, my priority will always be to stay in touch, and I will be sure to send updates and accompanying photos of your pets adventures. Similarly, I will be sure to always be available if you need me! Taking your pets for walks and cuddling with your pets are a few of my favorite things. I’ll be sure to follow the schedule to which we agree. I possess over 10 years of pet sitting experience, and looking forward to many more!! Longer stays (7+ days) preferred! ***I will be updating my scheduling regularly and will try to respond to messages in under 2-3 hours.*** I have a very large pet friendly studio and work from home during the day! Your pups will love to stay with me! I will take your pup for neighborhood adventures every day of the week! My studio has AC and I live in my studio full-time. When not working at a restaurant in the evenings, I will be with your pup 24/7. Longer stays preferred (7+ days).

“He enjoys every second with her...She is amazing and always sends me videos and pics! I hate being away from him so it makes it easier with the pics and videos!!! If I can give her more then 5 stars I would!!!”



“My fur babies had such a great time with Desmond! He was kind enough to take them in last minute and made me feel so comfortable. You could tell he really cared for them. I will definitely use him again soon!”

Going great lengths to make sure any animal or person near her feels comfortable. That's why I feel this would be a really great fit for her.
