13. Valerie M.
“Valerie was kind enough to watch my very young puppies who were orphaned within a day of birth. They were only a few weeks old and were still being bottle fed. Valerie did not hesitate to help me with them when I needed the extra help or was going out of town. I knew they would be very well taken care of because I see how she is with her own pets. As a human being she is very dependable, punctual, and detail oriented. If and when ever I need someone to trust my pets with, I would not hesitate to call on her to watch them!”

About: I’m an animal lover. I’ve been taking care of dogs since 2020. I bathe them, take them on walks, my sisters dogs as well. Experience with both small and big dogs. I have been gentle, caring, and loving with animals from a young age. My first ever pet was a black cat, l From ages 8-10, and took care of him myself. I would change their litter, feed them, play with them, and of course make sure they were healthy and happy. I've also had a duck, but after a year we gave him to our local duck park to live among the other ducks. By 2020 when I was 15, I’ve had my first pet dog, Mazapan. She’s a Maltese poodle. Who I adore. As well as taken care of family members dogs and cats for periods of times while they were out of town. I love animals so much, and I am grateful to be able to spread my love for animals by taking the time to care for other fur babies! Feel free to reach out anytime! :) I do have a part time fast food job, so I am available depending on my work schedule:) Usually Mon, Tues, Sat, Sun afternoons busy. But available for walks and house visits! New to Rover but I love my furry babies. I’m working part time in fast food. Because of the heat, I’m only available walking in the mornings before 11am and after 7pm once the heat goes down. I usually work Mon, Tues, Sat, Sun afternoons. I love walking and dogs great with puppies. My sisters dog visits often. I play with her and love to take her on walks. I love petting her and brushing her fur. Experience with big dogs as well.

19. Monique A.
About: Growing up, I’ve had just about every animal a child could have as a pet. My family had goats, a sheep, ducks, dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, and bunnies. Therefore, I have had experience with all these different types of animals, but more recently we have only had our birds, cats and dogs. I would say my experience with these three types of animals is in the range of 5 years as that is when I began to do more research into how to properly care for these animals to ensure they live their best lives, and I have been doing just that. I love caring for animals and playing with energetic dogs is definitely one of my favorite things to do, much like my sister’s dog who gives me a toy as soon as I walk in her house. I am also a very outdoor person so I’m great at walking and playing with dogs in a more professional manner as well. I am currently home for the summer as I am a college student who will return in September, however as of now I have an open schedule to provide help for pet owners who may need it. I have a part time job but it’s mostly on call so I am able to do pet care most of the week. My current living situation does not allow for animals to be in the home, however, I am always happy to provide aid in the pet owner’s home if needed.


20. Polette G.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals ever since I was a kid, ranging from dogs, cats, birds, fish, etc. As an adult I have kept fish and cats, as well as dog sat plenty of times for my friends! I have always been naturally attracted to animals and love interacting with them, each one of them has a personality and my job is to make it shine!!! Very open and flexible schedule, currently working part time. If special accommodations are needed, let me know ahead of time and we can message to work something out! In my own home I have a fenced backyard and always supervise any fur babies that go out. For client’s pets, I always perform any special needs that the pet may require and specialize in being able to deal with anxiety.
