“Emma is an awesome caregiver for our dogs! We have a new puppy along with an older dog and she is so tolerant of puppy antics and she checks in providing detailed information. Emma is great!!”
“Aidan has been great to work with so far! He is helping us as a drop-in sitter on days I have to be in the office and our pup, Bonnie, has had so much fun with him. Quick to respond, great availability, and very understanding of my pup’s quirks as she’s still got a lot of puppy in her!”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for most of my life. I've walked and sat my neighbors, brothers, and family friends dogs and cats whenever they leave town or want to have a day trip. I'm currently in my first year of Chiropractic School at Palmer. Pet sitting is one of the ways I like to use my free time. It also fits in my schedule very well. I know every animal is different. I like to get to know them better and build there trust by playing with them or taking them on a walk.
About: I’ve been watching my own dog for three years now, but he is back in California with family. I have lots of time on my hands and would love to watch other pups. I am free all week now that Summer has come around. Since I have so much free time, I would be more than willing and available to care for pups throughout the day. I prioritize pets and their health while they are with me. From going out constantly to take care of business, play out in the yard, or even just go on simple walks. I always make time to take care of pups and assure they are healthy and happy.
About: I have experience with dogs from any age and any breed and temperament. I am also knowledgeable on giving medication (both oral and via injection). In the summer, I work part-time during the days (anywhere from 9am to 5pm), however when my college classes start up in the fall, I have much more time to spend with your pets! Before each stay, for both my and your comfort, I tend to plan a meeting to get to know your animal and your space better! I find that in person meetings with pets before housesitting exponentially improves the quality of the experience for both me and your furry friend. Complicated instructions/"trouble" animals don't deter me, either. I will play, feed, walk, and clean up after your pet for as long as needed!
About: I am a current dog mom and have experience with a variety of dogs and cats. I would love to care for your fur kids! I am an active person and enjoy being outdoors. I work full time and nearby with varying hours that allow me to care for pets. I always ensure my dogs’ safety by keeping them in a fenced-in area or on a leash. I value each dog’s unique personality and tailor services accordingly.
“We've used Lizzie numerous times to watch our 5 cats. They are on 3 different foods and fed in 3 separate rooms. 😅 She takes care of our babies flawlessly despite how high maintenance they are. Love her!”
“Sydney was great with Jax and Gemma. They can be very excitable but after being away and cared for by Sydney they were calm when we arrived home. She was very communicative while we were away and I could tell by the pictures she sent that they enjoyed having her look after them! I couldn’t have asked for anything more from a sitter and will definitely be booking her if we go away in the future!”
About: I started caring for animals when I rescued my dog bean! She has taught me a LOT! Thanks to her I know how to manage dogs who are reactive. I'm also pretty good at keeping my footing if your 60lb pup decides to pull. All dogs deserve love is my motto. I also have experience caring for exotics! I've rehabilitated a bearded dragon and Russian tortoise in the past. I own tarantulas so I'm not afraid of any creepy crawlies either. Most of my availability will be on weekends but my schedule changes all the time so just ask! I'm normally pretty flexible so I'll try to fit you in, even if you ask same day. I can't bring your pet to my home unless it is a small caged pet but I'm happy to visit your home. I'm willing to do overnight stays or just pop in to give your pet a potty break and a walk. I'll always respect your home as if it was my own and your pets wellbeing will always be my highest priority.
About: My family got a dog while I was in high school, and I’ve been hooked since. My family’s first dog is 12 years old, and I currently have 4 dogs, all husky mixes. I work weekdays from 7 am - 5 pm. I am able to accommodate your pet before and after work as much as necessary. I am off on weekends. I offer walks, drop ins, and house sitting for both dogs and cats. My house is full with 4 dogs of my own so I do not board. Your fur baby is my priority! I’m very attentive to animals, their moods, and their needs.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs if every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to check in, feed, and play with their pets! I have a relatively flexible schedule, I so can check in most days at any given time. I’m available most nights and most weekends when needed. I can email crate your dog if needed and am very respectful when it comes to entering your home. I’ve dealt with animals of all types, so will be able to adapt to any interaction.
About: I've been taking care of dogs of friends and neighbors for years, including my sister and roommate's dog for 5 years. Additionally, I have been working in a hospital caring for patients for a year. I have a passion for caring for all other beings, and I have a soft spot in my heart for dogs. I'm currently taking the summer off before going back to school, so I will have endless time to spend with your pups! I am looking forward to doing some rewarding work caring for animals during this time off. I am willing to travel to your home in order to keep your babies in the comfort of their own place. I am also willing to spend long periods of time walking, playing, and just hanging out with your dog. I am very flexible for whatever their needs may be!
About: I’ve taken care of several breeds of dogs and cats since I was 15. Whether it be family pets, neighbors or friends I’ve always treated any animal in my care with the same love, attention & affection I give to my own. I have an open schedule so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your fur baby. I’m available Mon-Fri from 6am to 5pm and Sat & Sun 12pm to 6pm In your home I’ll be sure to follow the guidelines and rules you determined for your baby and home. Walks on leash always and attentive eye when playing to be sure your baby doesn’t get hurt or get into something they shouldn't. I can also handle feeding and am comfortable giving meds if needed.
About: I have been around dogs my entire life. There is no such thing as a bad dogs just bad owners. I have been around fluffy dogs to “fighting” dogs. No dogs are off limits. I do work a 8-4 job but my flexibility within the job is amazing. I am a social worker and a patient person. I love to be surrounded by animals. I do live in a condominium. But it is an amazing area filled with other people and animals. They are loved by many. There is never people not wanting to pet.
“I could not be more satisfied. This was my first time using Rover. Susie was very professional and it is very obvious that she loves dogs. Even though I did not request it she sent several updates on how things were going. I will definitely use the service again and I would absolutely recommend Susie.”

Camille M.
“Camille has been my close friend for nearly four years now. I was her best friend when she adopted her first dog from a shelter, Coop. Coop was a rescue dog that Camille adopted, and immediately loved. When she brought Coop home, Camille immediately catered to him. In his first night at her apartment, she slept on the living room couch so he would not be alone. When Coop wanted to play fetch at 4am that same night, Camille was there to play and make him feel at home. Since adopting Coop, Camille has shown utter love and care for him, and I have never questioned her ability to provide adequate care for him. Camille is a natural dog lover, and I put complete trust in her ability to love and care for any dog that may be around her.”
