About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and am completely comfortable with dogs of all sizes, especially large breeds. ​Whether your dog needs a structured walk, basic reinforcement of good behavior, or attentive drop-in care while you’re away, I provide reliable, capable support. I also offer morning feedings during walks if your routine requires it, ensuring your dog is fed, walked, and settled right on schedule. ​Beyond standard care, I bring extensive hands-on experience administering medications including insulin injections and complex treatments such as chemotherapy—giving you total peace of mind if your pup has specialized medical needs. ​I’m confident handling different temperaments and energy levels, and I always prioritize safety, consistency, and clear, proactive communication with owners. Let’s team up to keep your dog happy, healthy, and thriving! ​I offer consistent, reliable care and am available for walks and drop-ins. You can expect a steady routine tailored to your dog's needs, including feeding, exercise, and any required medications. I prioritize clear, proactive communication with timely updates and photos during every visit so you always know your pup is doing well. Every service is approached with a strict focus on safety, consistency, and respect for your dog's unique temperament. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly, well-managed dogs. I’m experienced introducing dogs safely and can separate or crate as needed based on temperament and owner preference. I maintain a structured, low-stress environment and closely supervise all interactions. I follow owner instructions carefully, including feeding routines, medications, and activity levels. Clean, secure, and safety-focused at all times.

“Cari is absolutely amazing, and my dog, Faraday, already adores her: head tilt, tongue out, excited jumping all show up when he hears Cari's name. She's responsible, flexible, and excellent at communicating and sending pictures. I cannot praise her enough. She deserves all the props! Love her!”

“I’m a healthcare traveler working in town for only 9 weeks. I needed someone reliable to walk my dog while I worked long shifts. Alyssa was wonderful with my dog, reliable, kind and available for last minute requests if I had to work late. She answered texts quickly and was wonderful with my dog and crazy schedule! Highly recommend.”

“Communicates well. Problem solved when my dog locked himself in. Would recommend to anyone”

About: I love animals and have always been the go-to for friends and family when pet sitting. I had a senior cat that required daily injections and medications for many years, so I’m happy to work with senior pets who may need medications and other special TLC. I don’t have space for a dog of my own right now, so helping out with others’ makes me so happy! I work full time for a gardening organization, but my days and work hours are flexible so it’s easy to fit your pet and their needs into my day. I mostly work outside, and my office is pet friendly, so if your pup doesn’t like to be left alone, I can always bring them with! I have a fenced backyard and am happy to have your dog in my space. I prefer to sit dogs at their houses so they’re in spaces they know and aren’t stressed in, but am always happy to bring pups to my house or with me on my day.

About: I always take care dogs for my friends and family and also my neighbors. I have a border collie so I am an experienced dog sitter. I can walk your dog, play with your dog, bring them to dog park, etc… anything to fulfill your request! I work from home full time, which gives me flexible schedule and allows me accommodate pet care throughout the day. Weather it’s a morning dog walk, a midday drop in visit, or an evening check in. I am able to provide reliable and on time care while working around your pet’s rountine. When caring for pets in your home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal as possible. I'll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any special preferences your pet has. I understand that every pet is unique, so I adjust my approach based on their personality, whether they love to play, enjoy cuddles, or simply prefer a calm, quiet companion. I also treat every client's home with the same respect I would my own. I'll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, clean up after them, keep their living area tidy, and ensure your home is secure before I leave. Throughout each visit, I'll send photo and video updates so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind while you're away.

“Jenna was right on time for tuckers walk and took the time to do a meet and greet a few days prior to the walk so we could all meet, which I appreciated a ton.s She was punctual, knowledgeable and easy going. Thank you Jenna!”

“I can’t recommend Natalie highly enough! She has been an absolute lifesaver for me and my dog, Blue. From the very first walk, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. Blue can be a little energetic and stubborn at times, but Natalie handles him with so much patience, confidence, and kindness—it’s honestly impressive. She is always punctual, reliable, and communicates consistently, sending updates and photos that give me total peace of mind while I’m away. It’s such a great feeling knowing that Blue is not only getting exercise, but also getting attention, affection, and someone who truly enjoys spending time with him. Natalie goes above and beyond every time—whether it’s making sure Blue has fresh water, giving him extra playtime, or just noticing little things about his behavior and keeping me informed. You can tell she takes pride in what she does, and it shows in the way she treats every walk like it matters. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely passionate about dogs, Natalie is the one. I’m so grateful we found her on Rover, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for top-notch care for their pet.”

About: *I currently have a 4 year old, neutered male, Border Collie mix* (If booking for 4 days or more, I prefer to bring him with me. If it's less than 4 days I can work with leaving him at home.) I've had dogs in my life since I was about 8 years old. My mom bred our dogs and I would help her. I helped to birth the puppies, feed and wash them, weigh them and track their progress, train and care for them. Since I was 18 I've adopted six dogs. One of them was deaf and blind when I adopted her. I've never been the first home for any of my doggos but I've been the best/most loving final home for all of them. I work part time and have plenty of time to spend with animals. I usually take my dog out for a stretch/potty every couple of hours and we walk at least once a day. I'm constantly looking for new parks and fun places to play. I have a three year old Border Collie mix that gets along well with other dogs and cats. The yard is fenced but there's no doggy door. I have some crates of various sizes if needed. The fur babies are allowed on the bed and all of the furniture at my house. I frequently pet/house sit for a Pitbull mix and she's one of my dogs besties. She has medication and a special diet. I've also frequently had my dad's dogs visit. So my dog is used to both having separate food and sharing in a communal pack. Whenever we pet/house sit we follow their house rules (i.e. - no dogs on the furniture or in the kitchen, etc). I'm trusted with keys to multiple homes and never stop by unless asked to.

About: Hi! I’m Evelyn, a lifelong animal lover and proud pet mom to three friendly dogs and three cats. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your pet loves playing fetch, going on long walks, or simply curling up for cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels—from tiny lap dogs to large, active breeds like Huskies and Australian Shepherds. I work part-time four evenings a week (Monday–Wednesday and Saturday from 4–10 PM). On Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays, I’m home all day. For boarding, your pet will still have company while I’m at work. My husband is home during my evening shifts, so our home is rarely empty. We work together to make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, potty breaks, exercise, and love throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We have a fully fenced yard for supervised playtime and three friendly resident dogs who love making new friends. Introductions are always done slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable. If your pet is crate trained, I’m happy to crate them when requested or if it’s part of their normal routine. Otherwise, pets are welcome to relax with us in the home. We also have baby gates throughout the house, allowing us to separate pets whenever needed for everyone’s comfort and safety.

About: I've been caring for pets for over 15 years, both as an owner and a trusted sitter. I currently have a Lab/Collie mix named Coleslaw, so I know how important it is to find someone who will care for your dog like they're family. Whether it's long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or sticking to your dog's routine, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away. You'll also get plenty of photo updates, so you can relax knowing they're in good hands. Pet care is already a part of my everyday routine, so fitting in walks, playtime, feedings, and plenty of attention comes naturally. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate your pet's needs, whether that's sticking to a specific routine, providing frequent potty breaks, or simply spending quality time with them to keep them happy and comfortable. Every pet is different, so I do my best to follow their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. Whether I'm caring for them in my home or yours, I'll make sure they have plenty of exercise, playtime, attention, fresh water, and lots of affection. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality, respect any feeding or medication instructions, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how they're doing.

About: I provide calm, attentive, and reliable pet care tailored to each animal’s needs. I had my own dog for 13 years, who passed away last year, giving me deep understanding of lifelong care and companionship. I’ve also been a dog foster and worked with multiple rescue groups, caring for dogs with a wide range of temperaments, including shy, anxious, and high-energy personalities. In addition, I have extensive pet sitting experience with all kinds of animals. I’m comfortable with daily routines, walks, playtime, and basic medications, and I bring patience, presence, and genuine care to every pet I look after. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to prioritize visits, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m able to adjust my availability as needed, which helps me be reliable for both last-minute and recurring bookings. I structure my week around my commitments so I can give each pet consistent, attentive care without feeling rushed. This flexibility allows me to provide dependable support and maintain a calm, present energy with every animal I care for. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every pet care situation. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely to keep the pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times and never take risks during walks or outdoor time. I keep a close eye on behavior, appetite, and energy levels so I can quickly notice if something feels off. I also maintain cleanliness in feeding areas and litter boxes, and ensure pets always have fresh water and a comfortable environment. My goal is to create a safe, grounded presence so pets feel secure, cared for, and at ease while their owners are away.

About: Fully fenced property! Lifelong animal lover. I work at a local pet store where I continue to educate myself on pet health and wellness. At home, I have a fur and feather fam of dogs, cats and chickens. (Chickens are in a part of the property the pups can’t get to). I understand how scary it is to leave your loved ones while you’re away, so I make sure to give them all the loves and pets they deserve while the parents go play! High communication is key to me! I currently only work 2 small shifts a week, so I am home most days to care for your babes! We do daily walks around the school behind me and get lots of love and treats! Comfortable giving meds if needed and working with specialized diets I have a fully fenced yard and 2 friendly pups! As I have been watching friends dogs for years, my cats are used to having dogs come and go. They keep their distance with unknown pups. Any pup that visits my home gets lots of treats, lots of love and a couple new play buddies to run around the yard with!

About: I’ve spent over two years volunteering with Hearts 4 Paws and later worked at PetSmart for a year and a half, which gave me hands on experience caring for animals and tips/tricks to better care for your pets. I’ve fostered and successfully found homes for cats, and I’ve also pet sat dogs of all sizes and breeds. I truly believe animals are family and deserve to be cared for as such. I’m a college student so I will have plenty of time to give your fur baby all the attention and love they need. I’m pretty flexible with my schedule as long as I get a little heads up! I treat both your pets and your home with the utmost care. I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of love, attention, and playtime, while keeping your home clean, tidy, and just as you left it.

About: I love dogs and have grown up with them all my life. I believe they are just children in dog bodies. I have two dogs of my own so I know how important it is to trust the person that is caring for them. I am experienced with puppies and with older dogs.

About: My family has owned dogs since I was about 4 years old. I currently have a 12 year old dog that I love to take on long walks. I have been dog sitting for my family a few times a year for about 10 years and would love to help out with yours! I have a fairly flexible job so as long as I am given enough notice I would be happy to fit in a walk/drop in visit for your animals! I am interested in Dog walking more than anything but my number one priority is making sure the pet I am with feels safe and comfortable. I am very careful to watch body language and if they don't like something, I will do whatever I can to make sure it stops happening.

“Kady was so sweet and kind to Russ. I can tell that he absolutely adored her. She was very professional and flexible with the changes I wanted to make. Will def book a walk with her again.”
