About: Years of pet ownership; dogs, cats, fish, lizards, hedgehogs, guinea pigs and chickens. I have owned shelter dogs with the breeds of Blue heeler, terriers and chihuahuas. I also have experience with Laboradors and Scottish terriers. Many of these pets are high energy pets. They love to run and the lab we watch lives to catch balls( lacrosse stick comes in handy) I know how hard it is the leave them behind without a trustworthy sitter, sometimes forgoing a trip because of such concerns. I will care for your pet as I do my own. I am a school counselor so I have summmer availability as well as many holidays. I can provide you with the proof of my walking your dog with my walking app.

About: I’m a lifelong animal owner and “farm girl” with experience owning and working with dogs, cats, small animals, livestock, and even exotics.

About: My family got a Havanese when I was 14 years old and she just passed away February 2024. Recently, my partner and I got a Micro Bernadoodle puppy in June 2024. Neighbors and friends have relied on me to walk and take care of their pets since I was in high school! I am a teacher during the school year so I have all summer off! I am available most days for a walk or a quick stop-by. Currently, I have a puppy at home so I am very attentive when it comes to safety for your fur baby. When walking your pet, I can always bring my puppy with me for a friend if you want your dog to be socialized!

About: I have cared for many animals over the past 16 years for friends and family & also have two dogs of my own who are my world. I am currently a stay at home mom with full time availability. I am able to crate your animals at night if needed for sleep and give frequent bathroom breaks throughout the day. I have a fenced in yard and two playful doggies to give your fur baby company while they have a vacation in our home. I will care for your pets as I do my own & treat them like family while they are here!

About: I have been born and raised to take care of any type of family member from the small lizard to largest dog to feathered friends and horses.

I currently live in a small apartment, so it ideal that I travel back and forth from my house to clients home. I have fur babies and a family of my own, hopefully when I get a home of my own I could introduce the doggy daycare and pet sitting at my home.

“Shayla really helped me out with walking my dogs when I was in a pinch. Extremely professional and great communication! Got home to two very relaxed and happy dogs! The pictures of the experience were an added bonus. I’ll definitely reach out again for help.”

About: I've watched and taken care of dogs for many years, mainly family and near by neighbors. I have grew up on a farm which i've taken care of many other animals as well... mainly farm animals and dogs!! I'm currently in college right now, it's mostly online so that's not really an issue. I'm working part time as well, which I have plenty of time to take care of the dogs!! I'm always free on weekends unless otherwise noted!! I have two golden-doodles, which are crate trained. They are allowed to run freely outside but they know where they are and aren't allowed. I keep them on a schedule, meaning with going outside, playing, and feeding.

About: I’ve owned my own pets for 15+ years and grew up in a pet friendly home with cats and dogs. Super attentive to details and the needs and body language of our pets. I currently work M-F but have Friday afternoons and weekend availability to help with your pet care needs. Happy to help you with drop in visits and/or dog walks. I’m happy to help you with drop-in visits to check on your furry friends while you’re away or provide dog-walking. Great attention to detail and communication.

About: I’ve been dog walking and sitting for neighbors since I was 12 years old. I’ve dog sat multiple types of dogs. I’ve done dog walking, check-in & potty break visits, and I’ve stayed at a clients home for long periods of time (5+ days) to be with their pups. I’ve also been tasked with administering insulin shots to dogs before. And I have a lot of experience with dogs that have anxiety, whether with new people, thunderstorms, or anything else, as I have one myself and a long remaining client of mine does as well. I’ve always loved dogs, having grown up having 2 smaller dogs myself. I am hoping to do pet sitting as a new permanent business, so I will have nothing but time to look after your pets! I will schedule out days and time periods based on client necessity and to provide the optimal care for your pets. Because I have two dogs myself, one of which has severe people and other animal anxiety, which for the safety of your pets and mine means I am unable to bring any pets into my home as of current. However, I’ve stayed at the homes of clients before to be with their pups while they’re away. I feed them every morning and night or make sure the food bowl is full depending on how the client feeds their dogs. I give them any medicine or joint tablets that they need to be well. I let them out multiple times a day whenever they need it. And I try to play with and pet them as much as I can while I’m there so they don’t miss their humans too much. I will even take them on a walk if allowed.

About: I've always taken care of animals of all kinds. I grew up having 5 dogs at a time and my mom is actually a pet sitter. So I help her out a lot. Animals are so important to me so you can be sure your beloved pets will be safe with me! I’ve always had hound dogs who were escape artists so I’m very good at knowing how to not let them out. I’m also very aware of the counter surfers as I have one! I'm only a part time worker so ill have time to care for these animals. I am a phlebotomist in Easton. I can do visits 3 times a day every day I have reliable transportation to and from your house! I am a huge animal lover so your pets will be very well taken care of

About: I have 7 animals of my own, both dogs and cats. I also work part time at Kevertin Pet Resort so I am very familiar with different animal personalities and how I’m expected to care for them! Neighbors, friends, family & clients have relied on me to care for their furry friends and I’ve loved getting to know each one. I am pet CPR Certified. I walk for 3-4 houses around noon Monday- Friday as well as dog sitting overnights frequently. I am very flexible and will not have to spend long periods of time away from your pets. I work part time as a kennel tech and attend college. College is online so that won’t be a problem right now. My scheduled days can change but shifts are no longer than 6 hours at a time. I usually work every other day. I live in Queen Anne so I’m about the same distance to everyone. I have a few clients that I walk dogs for during the afternoon and am always on time! I will take wonderful care of your pets as if they were my own. My pups love to play outside and get lots of attention so I want to share the love!! It’s always fun getting to know your dogs and cats. I have built a trusted clientele over the last 2 years of being on Rover. I am very responsible and will care for your house just as well as your pets! I know it takes a lot to entrust someone in your home so I won’t let you regret it.

About: I've owned dogs & cats my whole life; primarily goldens/labs. I've been around every animal you can think of and promise to take the best care of your fur family! I work in Denton during the week. Looking to do pet drop ins & dog walks before work (prior to 830am), during my lunch hour(anytime), and after work hours(430-530pm). I live in Starr (Centreville) and will be working that area for later evening walks. Will also be doing weekend pet sitting and walks. I can take your dog(s) to the dog park, for a walk around your neighborhood or let them out in your yard whichever you best prefer. Refill food/water, play fetch, etc. They will get all of the attention:)

About: I am a young stay at home mom and animal lover. I regularly work with and foster for several rescues in addition to petsitting, and have experience with bottle feeding, medical fostering, medication administration, and after surgery wound care, as well as light training, and “feral school” with feral and semi feral cats. Being a stay at home mom allows me to maintain a flexible schedule and the ability to provide as many "in home" visits as your individual pet(s) requires, or give them as much attention, walks, playtime and quality time in my home as they need. For boarding stays in my home I do request that for dogs they be other dog and cat friendly, as I do own animals of my own. For cats I do have the ability to keep them separated from my animals and give them their own "room" with window cat perch, toys and bed that are all thoroughly cleaned between each client. I am a lifelong pet owner and have owned and worked with everything from hamsters to horses(even reptiles!), I have experience owning and working with high energy and working class dog breeds, as well as ferral and semi ferral cats. Pets are family, and when they are with me they will always be treated as such! I am a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule allowing me to give your pups/kitties as much attention and care as they require. I provide several leashed walks per day, and well as play time in the yard, either on my long line(lunge line previously used for my horses) or in our chain link dog run(dogs are NEVER left unattended). In the home pets are allowed run of the house, unless separation is required. I do use crates or gate them in my kitchen/dining room area if I have to run out for whatever reason. This is to insure their safety and prevent them from getting into anything while unsupervised. I am able to provide crates of various sizes, up to XXL or you are welcome to bring your pets crate with them if you feel they would be more comfortable with their own
