“Kylie was great with both of my dogs who need to be kept separated, and I was able to trust her with that while I was out for a few hours. We will definitely be using her services again and my dogs will be very happy to see her again!🐾”
“Haley was awesome! She was very attentive in her care for our cat & dog while we were away. She also was able to accommodate a last minute additional visit which was so great!! She closely monitored the well-being of our dog during 4th of July fireworks and made sure to give thorough reviews/plenty of photos. Communication was amazing! Would definitely recommend Haley”
“Angela & Adam had great professional holiday energy for my senior kitties. They sent thorough reports and great/festive pictures that made us laugh which helped my son cause he always misses our fur babies when we are out of town. It is so refreshing to meet folks who genuinely love animals and provide top notch care!”
About: I have been a veterinary technician for a long time! I have recently changed careers and have been a student again. I miss being around fur babies and I would love to have the opportunity to do it again! I started my career with animals in a shelter and moved into the veterinary field. I have had too many foster animals of all types to even count! I am completely confident in my skills weather that be behavioral, medical, age specific, etc. My own pets are all over the rainbow bridge now and I deeply miss these interactions. Very available unless on vacation. Reach out if you need something! We may be able to make it happen! Full time student home for the summer ready to take care of your fur babies! I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have a large yard to walk your dog all around! We also have a great area to go on longer walks right on our street! While your away, let your pet have the experience of their very own vacation with me!
About: I worked at a veterinary hospital for 2 years, a pet boarding facility for 4 years, and I have been pet sitting for 6 years. I work full time from 8 AM to 4 PM, but I am available in the evenings to walk or check in on your pets. I love to play fetch in the yard. Walks around your neighborhood are great, but I am happy to take them to the park if you are comfortable with me driving them.
About: I have helped care for cats and dogs since I was old enough to help my parents and family. Whether I fed them, took them for a walk, bathed and brushed them (my childhood dog had a lot of unfortunate encounters with skunks!), took them to the vet, did drop-in's or gave medication, I always enjoyed it! I even raised frogs from the egg stage, and took care of chickens while family was out of town! I have experience with dogs with specific needs (i.e., epilepsy/ recovery from knee surgery). I hope I get to provide you and your furry friend with support soon! I am an early childhood teacher year-round. My day typically starts between 8 and 11, and can end anywhere from 5 to 6. About once a week I get out of work at 1. I know my schedule is a little funky, but I really hope we can make our schedules work together so I can provide any care your furry friend needs! I am willing to visit both before and after work. I do not have a fenced in yard as the home is a rental. I can install either a ground or tree runner to get some zoomies out. We have a large neighborhood with all different sights to see on walks. I have a 5-year old small dog who loves making friends and would be sure to wear your dogs energy out (we love her- but she's crazy!) There is a well-kept but commonly unused fenced-in park a quarter mile down the road as well!
About: I have been a pet lover since day one! I have had dogs as big as loving labs, as small as cocker spaniels, and rescues in between. Each one had their own personality, character and energy levels but were all loved the same. I do have experience with senior dogs as well who have needed a little extra help to accommodate their day to day needs as they lost their sight, hearing or became less mobile. Every pet deserves love and attention and I look forward to helping meet their needs! I am currently a dental hygiene student with a part time job one night a week. Since my school days are much shorter than the average work day, I have plenty of time to keep your pet company while you are away. I am comfortable walking dogs of any size. Currently I do not do sitting in my own home, but look forward to playing outside if there is a fenced in yard, walks in your neighborhood, and playing with your pups favorite toys.
“It was the first time Darcy cared for my two young cats and she did so with warmth, devotion and care. We didn't know Darcy at first, so she came to visit on two separate occasions (!!) to meet my cats prior to my trip. She fed them morning and evening according to their baseline expectations and ensured that the kitty litters were always clean. They played with her and even my younger cat who is very shy warmed up readily to her and didn't want her to leave! Darcy also texted me updates and photos after each visit (so I wouldn't worry). I highly recommend Darcy: not only for the exquisite care but for her warm, kind, caring and considerate personality which animals so appreciate (especially when their families are away). Thank you, Darcy and for Rover for bringing you to us!”
