About: I have taken care of family/friends dogs for over 13 years. I have done drop in visits, over night stays and just dog walking. I have worked with all different breeds, sizes and ages! I have experience with puppies, senior pets, and dogs with different energy levels and temperaments. Whether that means reinforcing house-training and basic commands with a puppy, administering medications to a senior pet, or simply providing plenty of exercise and companionship, I tailor my care to each animal's needs. I love taking pictures of our furry friends so ill always be sure to keep you updated when im with them! I'm currently working full time but I can always do drop in visits and dog walking after work hours during the week and on weekends my availability is pretty much wide open on Saturdays and Sundays (typically when I take my own pet for adventures so if you have a busy dog who loves walks/hiking im your girl) We have an open yard, our own pup is well trained on her boundaries however for any pets not my own they stay on a 20 foot long line and walked around the property. Inside they are free to roam the house, however if needed crates are available for use. If ever unattended dogs will always be in a crate for their safety.
“It was too wet/rainy outside to walk Gidget, but I kept the appointment time anyway. I wanted to start once a week walks for Gidget to get used to seeing Katie around before house sitting for us. Hubby said that she took the time to get to know her and vice versa. Very pleased with Katie.”

About: As a lifelong dog lover and experienced pet owner, my top priority is ensuring both you and your furry family member feel completely confident and comfortable in my care. I have four years of hands-on experience in house sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits; alongside my daily work at a dog and cat boarding facility. I am well versed in handling different animal behaviors and administering oral and subcutaneous medications safely. Having grown up around dogs of various breeds and sizes, I know how to adapt to your pet's unique personality. Whether they thrive on high energy adventures or prefer quiet couch cuddles, I am committed to maintaining their normal routine and treating them like my own. I am currently looking to fill blank slots in the morning during the week. Please don’t hesitate to reach out, I will try to fit you into my schedule the best I can! I care for pets in their own home to keep their routine comfortable and stress free while keeping your home tidy and secure. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, and I’ll always reach out right away if anything seems unusual. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

About: I am athletic and have always grown up around animals. I work at a pet boarding/daycare facility that allows me to get additional experience. With that being said, I have handled several breeds including different diets. I have handled Yorkies to Mastiffs and love them all! Puppies are the show stoppers but tend to lose control at times so I am willing to work on standard obedience commands as well. I’d be more than happy to play according to the dogs ability and health. I understand how important it is that animals receive their medications and meals at a timely manner. I am available most of the week besides my few shifts at my job. I am excited to get to know your furry friends!

About: I’ve had pets since I was young & have always been a big animal nut. I’ve had all kinds of animals as an adult once I was on my own, including cats, dogs, ferrets, bearded dragons, rats, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish, & bunnies! And I’ve loved them all greatly! I’m also a mom to 2 teens so I’m used to messy, fast-paced days & thinking quick on my feet. I volunteer at my town’s animal shelter & I have also been trusted to sit for friends’ pets (which included farm animals). My biggest concern for any animal is their safety & well-being (both physical & mental). I am self-employed & am lucky enough to choose my hours, so I have wide availability. I do have a child that I drive to & from school but I’m open to discussing what your needs are & how to make it all work. I’m ready to give your animal everything they need & am comfortable with most anything, including cleanup, feedings, habitat cleaning, & medications. I believe in respecting your home & privacy — I’m just in it to care for your family member!

About: I've been caring for animals since I was in elementary school, starting with my own pets and eventually helping care for the pets of family members, friends, neighbors, and coworkers. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I truly enjoy spending time with them and building loving friendships with each one. Whether it's going for long walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm also a proud cat owner, and caring for my own cat has given me firsthand experience in providing attentive, daily care and understanding the importance of patience, consistency, and affection. I genuinely love all animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care and give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for. I have full time employment as a classroom teacher so I can be with your pets before and after work as well as the weekends! When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my priority is always making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and companionship so they feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away. I also keep their space clean, fresh, and stress-free, and I always provide updates with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind. For dogs, I enjoy going on long, engaging walks and making sure they get both exercise and enrichment. For cats, I focus on gentle care, play, and respecting their comfort level—whether that means interactive play or quiet companionship.

“Katie was amazing with my pug Lucy! She’s very old and I worry about her walking outside in the summer time and overheating. However, I never had to worry. Katie was very consistent and always sent pictures after her walks. I will definitely be booking again!”
About: Hi! I’m a fun, energetic 22-year-old animal lover who has grown up around dogs my entire life and now has a 1-year-old cat who is truly my best friend 🐾 I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities—walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of love. Being a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your animals, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether it’s an active pup or a cuddly cat, your pet will get plenty of attention, patience, and care with me Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I’m already used to structuring my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and check-ins because I care for my own 1-year-old cat every day. I’m home often and plan my schedule to make sure pets get consistent attention, exercise, and companionship rather than quick drop-ins. Caring for animals is already part of my lifestyle, not something I squeeze in. I ensure that they are always well fed, looked after, and cared for to the best of my abilities. I love making sure that my pets are having fun and are safe.
About: Hi! My name is Mopelola, but I exclusively go by Jade! I have always loved animals and although I no longer have any of my own, I have a lot of experience in keeping them happy and enriched ! I am a student but all my classes are online this semester and so I am more than happy and available to watch pooches and kitties! (: I follow any and all instructions given to me by the owner in regard to dieting and safety restrictions etc. It’s important to keep pets and property safe.
“Lindsay is super-responsive, responsible, knowledgeable and caring. She took the time to get to know us and our dog. Very happy to have discovered her here on Rover. Definitely recommend!”

About: I have had many pets throughout my life I have been in charge of care for, including 4 dogs as well as a cat! I love making furry friends and can’t wait to meet yours! I am currently on summer break from school, so I am flexible to work with your schedule! Please reach out and we can work together on what’s best for your pet. I am ready to ensure your furry friends are safe while in my care! With a dog and cat at home, I am familiar with day to day pet care and safety.
About: I have taken care of many different kinds of dogs and cats my whole life. In my neighborhood I am the trusted pet sitter and pet walker! I work part time during my summer so I can focus on the pets I am hired to take care of. During the school year I do have some longer days so only certain days I can take care of dogs that require less than 4 hrs of alone time. I always follow the ground rules set by the owners. I do my best to make sure the pets do not get into anything that could cause them harm.
“This was our second time having Gary help us out, and he even accommodated a same-day request! He’s reliable and communicates well. It’s such a relief knowing our dog is in good hands. We’re so grateful for his help and highly recommend him!”

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience, love, and lots of belly rubs! I take the time to learn their personality, routines, and needs so they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or a quiet walk, I’m fully present and genuinely enjoy every moment I spend with them. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are always my top priorities. Pet care routine fits perfectly in my recent schedule, since Im working on my own business and trying to work as a photographer. My schedule is pretty open for now. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, their safety and comfort always come first. I maintain a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with lots of cozy spots and zero hazards. I follow all your instructions carefully—from feeding and medication to routines and house rules—because consistency helps pets feel secure. I also give regular updates with photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. Your trust means everything to me, and I treat every pet like family.

About: With 15+ years of experience as a certified veterinary technician and personal pets, I am an ideal candidate to care for your pets. At home, I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, and horses for my entire life. Over the last three years, I’ve cared for three senior dogs who required an array of medications. My 15 years experience as a veterinary technician has helped me to develop an eye for detail when it comes to your pets needs and health. Currently, I am taking a break from veterinary medicine. I would like to begin my own dog walking/daycare/pet and house sitting business in order to support my family. This will become a full-time job for me with an open schedule at this point. Dog walking and check in’s (to potty and play) will be Monday to Saturday 7am to 7pm. As I cultivate a client base and access the needs of those clients, my hours will develop to accommodate those needs. At my house, we have a fenced in yard that is approximately half an acre. The fence is 7 feet high in all places. There is a kiddie pool and digging area. Inside is an open concept to roam. Currently, all of my dogs are very friendly couch potatoes. If needed, they could be separated (into their favorite spot, my bedroom!) to accommodate your pets needs. As for walking, I will adhere to all rules provided by you, the owner. I’m open to walking neighborhoods or taking your dogs out on the local trails. I will work side by side on manners and behavior with the owners.
About: I've had a dog since I was 3 and 2 cats so I'm super familiar with pet care. I've been pet sitting for friends and family for years now for all different kinds of pets. From dogs like German shepherds, golden doodles, and pomeranian, to all sorts of cats and even hamsters. I volunteer at a cat shelter so I'm familiar with pets that need special care and attention. I do have class between around 8-12 most weekdays but anytime before or after I am free to help you whenever you need it. I go to school nearby so its usually not a problem at all. I love pets and I try to be super flexible to fit your needs. I could potentially help out inbetween classes as well depending on the day. I always take care of everyone exactly as parents want them to be taken care of. I try to treat them as my own and be patient and loving.
About: My very friendly little dog and I would love to host your dog here with us, up to 40 pounds only though...Or if your pal would benefit from a playmate, we would love to come sit for you! Well first off, I've been trusted with the care of many precious pets for years now...And enjoy it very much...I am fun, caring, and engaging, as well as all ble's, reliable, dependable, and responsible! And I took a CPR pet course, and human one as well. I have had cats mostly all my life, and now own a small dog of my own, who as I stated earlier, could, or doesn't have to if need be, come with me, as some love to have a playmate for their pet...And I know my friendly little guy very much enjoys the visit. But with anyone coming to my home, my guy will be there too, and they must all be friendly, and then we have nothing but a good time. Which brings me to, I can watch any animal, esp in the animals home and of any size...It is my home that, as also mentioned above, I would only be able to take in a small or medium sized dog, cat, or caged pet. And my home, that I live in with just my little guy, is pretty open and spacious for dogs to move around, and I have fenced in my backyard just off the back door porch for even more run around fun. And now onto my prices, I had to do additions a certian way on here...As to plus a cat if I'm also coming to care for your dog...But I can always modify and give a discount if say you have many plus one cats in your home so it doesn't keep plus one'ing a fee...Or if you have wonderfully easy small dogs, I would not keep plus one'ing for those and would find a nice set fee, and especially if my little guy could also come enjoy them, or they could come spend the time with us...It's the large ones that can be more of a handful and take a bit more doing often times, that I have to have it set that way for. And I did just recently up my prices some as I've noticed that Rover charges per night and I am not loving that, I always on my own charge per day, so I up'd my prices some to reflect that. But have noticed that I am still under many, esp when it comes to multiple pets, and so that is good. So you can always send me a msg and we can discuss any and all options. I can often work staying elsewhere into my routine, even if many miles away...And I put a certain radius, which is more so for popins...But I have stayed in homes miles and miles away, out of state even, just ask if it's doable, it very well may be! But for pop ins and walks, I would prefer to travel within 10 miles or so from my home only. So I did just update this for a 45 miles out, but obviously I cannot be doing a pop in or daily walk so far away. I care for pets in my home or their home the same way I care for my pet in his home...With the added, well, additions that your pet may need. My home is often more foolproof safe...Such as I have an indoor fenced area around my front door...And I do sometimes bring something similar with me to others homes...I prefer to be (overly) safe than sorry.
