“Evelyn is a wonderful and responsible walker and sitter and takes great care of my dog Freckles. She always spends a full 30 minutes with her (and often longer) and makes sure she has lots of love and attention while I’m away at work. When it’s very hot she pays special attention to Freckles’ comfort and will take her back inside to cool off if she needs it, but still makes sure the visit is the full length of time. I always receive detailed follow-up and adorable photos when the walk is done. Evelyn has had to deal with a couple accidents and has been gracious in cleaning them up before putting Freckles back in her crate. I (and Freckles) highly recommend Evelyn!”
About: Friends and family members have trusted me to care for their furry loved ones for as long as I can remember. Our furry friends deserve just as much love and care as we do. I work from home three days out of the week, so I am able to care for pets during the day. I am also incredibly available throughout the weekends and each weeknight. I maintain a consistent daily routine for feeding, potty breaks, and playtime to keep pets feeling secure and comfortable. I keep clients updated with photos and updates on their pets' well-being, so they can feel confident that their furry friend is in good hands. I create a pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for pets to roam, play, and relax. I ensure all areas are pet-proofed and free from hazards. Pets receive lots of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I offer enrichment activities like toys and outdoor walks.

About: I’ve had many pets growing up! A boxer and great dane, chihuahua and a few cats. Who I took care of and walked and played with daily. I would thoroughly enjoy giving your pet all the love and attention they want while with me:) I am very friendly and easy going. I can easily adapt to your pets needs as well.

About: Hi there! I’m Net.🙂 I’m the go-to gal of my friends and family for watching their four-legged kid - and I love that reputation. I’m here to help ease those worries of last-minute changes to your everyday itinerary or lessen stress when being cross-country on travel - I get that because being there has done the same! And what is more of a bonus for me to make another pal? Seems like a win-win situation if you ask me. For as long as I can remember, I have always been fascinated and compassionate when it comes to animals. They have always been one of my favorite things in this world. Growing up with birds, rabbits, cats, dogs, you name it - really helped that love grow and helped me to also learn how to be responsible, coordinate time management and even how to properly take care of them along the way at a young age. Fast-forward - I took the next step to wanting to know and learn more about them. So I signed myself up back in 2017 and took an online course to more knowledge and become a vet assistant where I later on finished my hours at a local vet hospital. I was taught valuable skills, such as patience in the field, restraint techniques, administering medication and the importance of detail, etc. I even have some background in doggy daycare! What can I say? I can’t get enough of these little guys. Learning everything from grooming and bathing techniques, to animal behavior of personalities and the ability to understand each animal’s needs and anxieties. Don’t forget the play! I’ll even put on a good jam for us too and break out in a dance party. Putting more experience under my belt in something that fills my soul and cup. I always say when you enjoy something you love it first, and it’s a job second. Hopefully, I’ll have the opportunity and chance to meet your dog, too! 🐶🤍 I’m currently working early in the morning, so I have a lot of downtime to take care of and hang out with your little one(s). Monday through Saturday, I’m free after 12:30pm and all day Sundays. Occasionally, I could have an extra day off during the middle of the week. Just shoot me a message! I will be more than happy to accommodate what I can. I have a whole pack at home myself. Did I mention that? Yup! Five in total to be exact. Ranging from all different breeds, the oldest is almost 13 and the youngest just turned 1. So keeping them occupied is definitely something we have adjusted and accommodated to. We have a whole fenced-in yard, a toy box that can't fit much left, walks are a very essential part of our daily life and activity, and we tend to rotate our pack in groups from going to breweries/wineries, to hikes and even events such as dog parks, farmers market and whatever else events tend to be happening at the time. If this is something you're interested in acclimating and a small dose over time, happy to bring them along with! Of course, the occasional cupcakes and cookies I make for my kids at home. Let me know if they have any allergies and I will be happy to bring a small bag over when I stop by! 🙂
“Our puppy was loved and cared for while we were away she is just the best!!!! We didn’t want to leave our 5 month old puppy for a week but it was much easier knowing Katrina and her daughter were here playing and keeping her feeling loved while we were not here!!! Can’t recommend her enough!!!!”
“Angela was lovely and took great care of our puppies, despite one being extra spicy and the other extra poopy. Always takes them on nice long walks which we usually don’t have the spoons to do ourselves. Thanks so much!”
About: I've been taking care of a wide variety of animals for a long time. I have experience in all around basic boarding care for dogs, cats, and various reptiles and small animals; dog training basic obedience, fear or frustration aggression/reactivity, high drive dogs, and anxiety behaviors. Pet Care is not only an important part of my life, but it's a passion of mine. Caring for your animal like I do my own is what makes life rewarding for me. When your pet is with me it becomes a part of my family and is treated as such. I look forward to training or caring for your animals! I can train your dog in a multitude of ways. I work a lot of animals with anxiety and behavioral issues. I can easily crate your dog, cat or any other animal if needed. I have access to multiple fenced in yards for your pet to run around in and play. I have a fully trained purebred smooth collie who is extremely gentle and can make friends with anything. I have multiple rooms and spaces in order to accommodate your fur baby's needs. I pay attention to detail and carry out all care with the highest level of standards I can.
About: I’ve always took a liking to animals and always had postive bonds with them. Over the years of growing up my grandfather owned several big dogs and cats. While others would shy away, not me I always helped out and didn’t mind watching them. I only work mornings and part time so that I have time for my cat as well because he needs to be watched. After my morning shifts I have all day to spend time outside to walk the dogs and get them their daily exercise. Caring for any pet at my home or others will be very similar I will need to know any notes and any restrictions for me and the dog. As I would give them my complete attention so that it’s a little vacation for them as well as subtracting feeling neglected.
“Were hired Michelle for a series of weekly walks with our two dogs, and she took such great care of them! She was reliable, trustworthy, and attentive to our girls’ needs. Would highly recommend.”
“Larissa took the time to talk through everything with me as this was my first time using the app. She was extremely thorough and helpful. She was very kind to come the day before to do a little meet and great with me and Banks just to make sure he would feel comfortable with her. She’s extremely sweet and took care of my little nugget just as I would. I highly recommend Larissa and plan on booking with her regularly! 😊”

“I have known Ashlie for about 10 years now and she has house/pet sit for me and my varied "zoo" I've had over the years. She's an animal lover and each of my pets have adored her. She has a natural way with animals and I have no qualms about leaving my fur children with her. She's also very respectful of my home and it's hard these days to find someone trustworthy. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her and wish her the best of luck with her new adventure through rover.”

“Logan has been absolutely great with our dog. I have been through 2 trainers before Logan. Our dog is a very energetic breed with a thick headed personality. Our dog loves Logan. Services afford are broad, the time he takes with them is amazing, & he is always helpful in the worst of circumstances. I have boarded my dog before & will be doing it again with Logan. Training is a cut above that if the average trainer & he does phenomenonal work. Answers all of my silly nonsensical questions & is always willing to help.”
