“Sara is the best. She made sure Etta was cared for and loved while we were gone. She’s highly recommended. It’s wonderful to know we found someone that takes our mind off of leaving not just a pet but a family member and she is taking care of properly until we returned.”


“Alexandria did an awesome job with dog sitting my 4 year old shihpoo. It was the first time I have left with someone unfamiliar and Alexandria put me at ease and sent me regular updates. Highly recommend Alexandria for petting services!”


About: I've taken care of all types of dogs for over 21 years. I'll treat any dog as if it was my own. I have a large backyard in the country on a private road that is a self contained peninsula right on the banks of the West Canada Creek. With miles of well maintained walking paths through the woods and on the Creek's bank, there is no shortage of places to go on adventures, all without having to worry about anyone else. My retired parents also only live a a quarter mile away who can let the dogs out/walk them if I happen to be stuck at work. I'm very flexible with my schedule as well. Currently 100% work from home. So your pet will never be alone. Just in case, both my parents, who are both retired, live only a quarter mile away and both can let the dog(s) out, walk them, if needed. They are big animal lovers and very active as well. All dogs have their own unique needs, so I'm going to rely on you and I will ask you for any specifics your pet(s) might need. I will tailor my care based on your input. Just to illustrate both ends of the spectrum , if you want me to crate your dog, I can do that. I'm also totally fine giving free reign to my house if your dog is trustworthy not to do any damage. If their are worries about your baby getting into anything and doing any property damage, I'm very diligent in making sure I remove anything that could cause an issue (including putting up gates, providing stimulation toys, and making sure there is nothing he/she can get into food wise). If you want to board your baby with me, typically I'll do a meet and greet at my place to introduce myself to you and your pet(s), as well as show you my property both inside my house as well as my large countryside property. If your not boarding at my house, depending on where you live, I can meet at your place to meet you and your dogs. I know what a dog with separation anxiety can do, and know how expensive the damages can be. Thankfully, my retired parents live just up the road and can make sure your pup isn't alone for anymore than a few hours at most during the workweek. My dad is still very active and great with dog walks. So if for some reason I am stuck at work that day, my dad can come down to visit your pet, take her for a walk, or just keep company. Lastly, I have an 11 year old Terrier mix that stays with my retired parents just up the road, she's very sweet with other dogs and cats, and is only 18 lbs. If I have to leave your pup alone for a few hours, she can provide company to your dog as well, supervised by my dad, if wanted.

“Wonderful sitter, would book again in the future! Thank you so much!”


About: Hi! My name is Jessica and I would love to take care of your pet while you’re away. I have unofficially been a pet sitter for several years. I have been fortunate to have friends and coworkers ask me to help with their pets and since then word of mouth has given me the chance to pet sit a lot more, which I love! I have always loved animals and have had the chance to watch and help out with many dogs, cats, chickens, lizards, and even a couple horses. I have two cats who are my world and I intend to make your pet as much of a priority my own. If you were to hire me I would make sure your pet(s) have a schedule as close to normal as possible. I have no issues staying over with your dog or cat. My favorite thing to do while I dog sit is take them for walks, so that is not an issue at all and I will always make sure your dog is well secured and watched throughout any time outside. I am typically busy Monday - Friday from 7:30 AM - 5 PM which is why I said that I can’t be available full time during weekdays, but I am free all day during weekends. I have no issues with staying over or popping in several times a day if that is what you prefer. Safety for your pet is my #1 goal, but I also am there to spend time with them, play, and take them for walks. I know leaving your pet is stressful for you and them, so I always try to distract them and make sure they get lots of love and attention. I also am more than happy to provide a lot of pictures and updates to ease your mind as well! Unfortunately, my apartment building does not allow pets, not even to visit, so I have no opportunity to board your pet.

“Gabriella has been a true blessing for us this holiday. Having two senior pets with special medical needs, we are constantly worried about them. We were very nervous to leave home, but Gabriella was truly caring, professional, and dedicated. Upon our arrival home, we found Christmas presents for our babies waiting on the table. We are so grateful for the wonderful care our pets received from Gabriella and highly recommend her!”


“Melinda was wonderful with our girls. We have a very fresh Frenchie and Melinda was great with her. She was very communicative and sent super cute pics. Will definitely book her again.”


About: I've taken care of dogs for a long time. It started when I was young, probably around the age of 10, but of course I couldn't drive, so my mom had to help out. I have always had a love for animals, and I always will. I am currently a college student studying childhood education and psychology, along with playing soccer. That may sound like I have a pretty busy schedule, but since I live at home, it is not bad at all. I am also a substitute teacher, which allows me to choose when I work based on how my schedule looks for that given week. Pet safety is of the utmost importance to me. Families are relying on me to care for their beloved animals while away for a day or a few days. Playing outside or relaxing inside are all things I love to do, based on the dog's needs. Walks are always fun, too!

“He was awesome!”


“Emily is a Delight! She’s prompt, thorough & very personable! The pictures she sent each day of my 2 furbuddies were so reassuring & funny. I really think there was some serious disappointment on their faces when I walked in instead of Emily!”


“Very accommodating and helpful!”


About: I have always had dogs in my care. Currently, I have two well behaved dogs. One rescued and another with health concerns. I am familiar with medication administration. I am very active and often take my dogs on hikes and walks around the community. My fenced in yard allows dogs to socialize, roam, and enjoy a safe space when not on the trails. Aside from a dog owner, I am a teacher and have availability to take care of pets in my home. I would be available afternoons, evenings, and weekends every week. I live a very active lifestyle and have the property and means to take care of your pet for short and long term visits. In addition exercise, I offer a clean and nurturing environment for your dogs to play with mine. Additionally, I do stop in visits to walk, let out, and feed dogs outside of boarding. I am a mature professional with years of experience. I know the right calls to make while taking care of pets.

“Jerrad is the absolute best. I truly have no words to describe how lucky I am to have met him through Rover. He is so caring and loving to my little dog. He is extremely reliable and understandable about unexpected situations. He will go an extra mile to make sure your pet is happy. My pup gets so excited when he sees him, it’s adorable! A million star review!!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a little girl. Neighbors, friends and family have allowed me to take care of their dogs for years. I currently have a 9 year old lab and had a lab for ten years before him. Currently I am available all day and every day of the week. I am looking for a new job doing something I love to do. We have a large backyard but it’s not fenced in. I can take the dog out on a leash if needed. There is a park near my house where I walk my dog every morning. My father and mother are both home and can give your pet extra love, attention and help when needed. I have a 7 year old male lab who loves everyone and is great with other animals.

About: I am generally not afraid of dogs, being able walk, run, and play with a dog always brightens my day. I use to take care of puppies and adult dogs in my spare time after school and I would make sure to feed them, take them out for walks, play with them and pick up after them when needed. I am not working right now so looking after a dog is a good way to pass the time for me, not mention being out of the house and getting a decent amount of exercise. I will take great responsibility in taking care any dog that is under my care, I'll respect the owners rules and do my best to satisfy the customer and their needs

About: Being an animal lover is in my blood. Growing up on a farm, it had to be. I have 2 cats and one dog, and work in a shelter part time. Animals are my passion! I work part time and have plenty of free time! I treat this seriously like any other job, and will love your pets like my own. Depending on your needs, care will vary. I can provide walks, mental stimulation/enrichment, short training sessions, social interactions with my bomb proof dog! Let me know what you need, as I am here for YOU and your pet!

About: Twenty plus years experience with small to large animals. Reliable, kind, honest, experienced and mature. I will treat your animals and home like my own. My husband works out of town and my daughter just moved back home from grad school. So I have plenty of time to help with all your needs. I would like to keep the pets routine as close as what they are use too. I prefer notes, you can never leave to many.
