About: Animals have always been at the center of my life, as a child my mom and I showed dogs almost every weekend. With that came the responsibility of feeding, socializing, grooming, and cleaning up after furry friends. In those years I met many different breeds and learned so much about the needs and habits of dogs. In my adult years, I never lost that love, always having pets of my own and finding such joy in caring for them I decided to start looking into making a career out of what I love the most. This led to a job with Petco where my knowledge of animal care was extended beyond just dogs and cemented that working with animals was something I couldn't live without. I still help out at my local store with stocking and am in school for veterinary technology. In the past I have worked at a veterinary hospital giving comfort to animals who come to visit, drawing blood, assisting in appointments, walking dogs, general cleaning duties, and providing company to animals staying for extended periods of time. I am able to administer medication to animals during sitting if necessary and am also a huge fan of fetch/ tug and all the other fun doggie activities for our more active friends. Although my love for dogs is beyond measure, kitties are my weakness, no furry friends are excluded. Please reach out for any of your pet sitting or dog walking needs! I currently work full time but do have flexible scheduling. I am available for morning walks or drop ins between 8:30-11 on most weekdays. I am available on weekends for walking or sitting.Available on week nights . If needed I am flexible and can accommodate other days. I would never accept a job where I did not believe I could give your furbaby adequate time. I know how important routine is to animals and I will follow any instructions given to tee. I do not offer care in my home as my apartment does not allow but when I care for your animals they will be treated as if they are my own. There will be no lack of love or playtime and I will be sure the safety of your pet is my top priority while they are in my care.

About: I have had animals my entire life. Solely being responsible for the care of livestock for multiple years. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, rodents, and fish. I have open availability everyday of the week including the weekends. I am flexible on times and can work with whatever best suits you and your pet. I abide by any instructions that I am provided. Dogs will be walked on a leash at all times to ensure their safety during the outing.

“Maddi did a fantastic job! She communicated what was happening with the pets and ensured they all were safe and had a great time. We have one sassy girl who can be a bit of a handful and loves to create chaos but Maddi handled it all so well. Such a wonderful pet sitter!!”

“Aaron was fantastic! Great at communicating while we were out of town. Kept us informed on when he’d be dropping by. Our dog was a bit hesitant at first and Aaron handled the situation extremely well! By the second visit our dog had a new bff. Highly recommend!”

Rose M.

“Michelle did a phenomenal job taking care of our babies! She kept us informed on our babies condition, she provided food, water, changed pee pads, and gave lots of attention and love! Additionally she accepted our booking last minute. Thank you Michelle!”

Magan P.

“Ayla was so sweet and genuine with our cat Miso and us! This was our first time using Rover and she was very responsive to any questions and followed all instructions that were given! So glad to have someone trustworthy to watch over our special girl :)”

“Happy we were able to connect with Mitchell! He took excellent care of our pups and sent plenty of photos to ease my mind while we were away. Thanks, Mitchell!”

About: I've taken care of my own dog for the past 8 years, but before that I was raised around dogs and other animals. My grandparents and uncle always had multiple dogs for hunting, so I am very comfortable around and them and developed a love for dogs at a young age. I have dog sat on various occasions over the past 10 years, and I would love to continue to do it while I’m on the job search. I have a relatively flexible schedule throughout the week since I am pregnant and out of work for the moment, so in most cases would be more than willing to try and work something out. I am currently living in a house with my own dog so I would rather not be doing home services on my end but it is possible for well behaved dogs since my dog is very friendly.

About: I grew up surrounded by animals—horses, cats, and dogs—which naturally led to a lifelong love for caring for and working with them. I pursued this passion academically by earning a degree in Animal Science and professionally by spending five years in the horse industry, where I gained experience in veterinary care, herd and barn management, as well as training and showing. I’ve also worked in veterinary clinics, where I developed strong skills in safe pet handling, basic first aid, and administering medications. In addition, I have experience with puppy training and basic obedience, and I’ve completed courses to certify my own dogs as Canine Good Citizens. Now settled with my husband, who is active-duty military, I enjoy providing calm, reliable, home-style care for pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and well-loved while their families are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m a stay-at-home mom to one baby boy who already loves his furry “brothers,” which means I’m home most of the day and able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care. I live a simple, calm lifestyle and enjoy adjusting to each dog’s needs—whether that’s dedicated playtime for high-energy dogs, structured walks, or a relaxed day with couch time and snuggles. Because I’m home, pets are never left unattended for long and are treated as part of the family during their stay. I live a simple, calm lifestyle and tailor care to each dog’s individual needs. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training reinforcement, and medication if needed. High-energy dogs receive dedicated play and enrichment, while more laid-back pets enjoy a relaxed pace with plenty of affection and snuggle time. Because I’m home throughout the day, pets are rarely left alone and are treated like part of the family—kept safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Where to begin with Christina and her services, she is outstanding. First of all I have a 130 pound Cane Corso and a Pitty that the size alone will send others running. Christina has owned large breed dogs and understands their language. We had several meet and greets because I was going to be out of the country and I wanted everyone to be comfortable while I was gone. Communication was sporty during my trip but not because of Christina, I just didn't have wifi often due to my location. I never worried that my dogs weren't in loving hands. Christina stayed at my home too, my dogs are indoor pets not backyard dogs. I offered to buy Christina food but she meal preps so that was again one less worry for me. When I got home she had even washed her sheets and my home was clean, this wasn't her job but I appreciate her going that extra mile again. My dogs were happy to see me but were not stressed out as they have been before with other sitters. Christina is who I will always want in my future, I love her and am so grateful for her and Rover for bringing her into my families life.”

“Brandy was phenomenal! She sent multiple updates every day along with pictures of our boys while we were gone. She took such great care of our dogs and our home. We will definitely use her again in the future. She is very professional and amazingly sweet. I could tell our boys were happy to have her here while we were away.”

Meredith D.

“Y'all Kali is awesome! She cared for our three great big labs and our home like they were her own. Wonderful communication throughout the entire stay and we truly appreciate her time. Highly recommended. Many thanks!”

Kevin W.

“Sierra was amazing with my two dogs and two potbelly pigs. Very professional and respectful of my home. Will definitely use her again.”

Sadie S.

“Jenn was great with our anxious big baby. She went above and beyond and cleaned up after him when he had a little ? accident. Thank you so much Jenn!”

Breghan N.

“Ella came and met Xena & we knew instantly that she was going to be a great fit for us AND Xena! Within minutes, Xena was rolled over, belly up letting Ella love on her. We received daily updates with pictures and honestly felt so comfortable and relieved to have someone like Ella to watch our dog. Everything was just how it was when we left, with Xena happy as can be. :) We will definitely be using this young lady again - we cannot thank her enough for our peace of mind while away.”
