About: There is no better feeling than the relief you have knowing your pets are safe and well taken care of while away. I also know the feeling of missing them while gone. I’m here to help with that and send you pet updates along the way! With a lifelong love for animals, I’ve dedicated my time and career to caring for them in every way possible. I have some hands-on experience as a veterinary technician, giving me valuable skills in animal health and behavior. I’ve grown up with pets of all kinds from dogs and cats to reptiles and small mammals—and have been their primary caregiver throughout my life. My husband and I today have 5 cats, a black lab, a few reptiles, and are new to the chicken game! Currently, I’m pursuing a degree in zoology, which deepens my understanding of animal biology, welfare, and behavior. Whether it’s giving medication, understanding subtle signs of stress, or simply providing loving companionship, I bring knowledge, compassion, and reliability to every pet I care for. I do prefer a meet and greet first, so I can get to know your pet(s) and get a better understanding of their daily routine while you are away. I understand last minute plans may come up and will do my best to accommodate these, if I can. More fun facts about me! - I love turtles so much that those in my close circle still call me by my childhood nickname “TG” aka “Turtle Girl.” - I can’t leave the house unless I’ve said bye to each of our pets. - My husband says I’m a Disney princess because animals always find me. As a part-time worker, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care for pets in the early mornings and evenings. This is perfect for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, or just some quality companionship at the times pets need it most. While I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment tailored to each pet’s needs. I follow each pet’s routine closely including feeding schedules, medication, exercise, and playtime to keep them comfortable and happy. In client homes, I respect the space and maintain a clean, calm atmosphere so pets feel secure in their familiar surroundings.

About: I have had experience caring for all sorts of animals since I was 11 years old. Including cats and exotics. I am also a professional dog and cat groomer with 4 years of experience as well as a grooming certification. I am currently a full time pet groomer with a flexible schedule. I work in the afternoon so I will always be available mornings and nights. I will always treat your pets as if they are mine own and I will be sure to follow any rule or specification that you leave for their care.

About: Hi, I’m Kimberly! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them isn’t just my job—it’s something I truly enjoy. I have 8 years of pet care experience working with dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and other small animals, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m fully pet care insured, giving you extra peace of mind while you’re away. Whether your pet needs drop-in visits, overnight care, walks, feeding, medication administration, playtime, or lots of love and attention, I’m committed to providing dependable, compassionate care tailored to their individual needs and routine. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets and home. My goal is to keep your pets happy, comfortable, and stress-free while keeping you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit. Whether your furry, feathered, or scaly family member needs care for a weekend or an extended trip, I’d love the opportunity to help. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m currently unemployed, so I’m always home, I always have time for playing with and cuddling with your pets! They will always be exhausted and loved I would prefer to do an overnight in your home as to not stress your pets out too much! They will be very cared for

“OMG! Carrie was amazing! She took the time to get to know my two dogs ahead of the sitting. She learned their routine and provided extra TLC to the pups. Carrie was flexible and timely. She also communicates any and all issues. For example, one of the pups had "nervous poop" and she let me know about it in case it turned bad and he had to go to the vet. She also spent time with the pups, reinforcing positive training behavior. I will definitely use Carrie's services in the near future and would highly recommend her for any pet sitting needs. Big Thanks to Carrie for taking such great care of the pups.”

“Brooke is really great with dogs! Boone seems to really like her. She sent us pictures of him throughout the day and was very responsive when we had a question. She’s flexible with your schedule and needs and does a lot to accommodate your pups needs. She slept with our pup each night.”

Amber S.

“Miriam was an attentive overnight sitter for my two senior pups. Provided lots of pictures and videos and kept me up to date on their meals! Will book her again next out of town trip!”

“Five stars isn't enough! Tyreika stayed at our home and took absolutely wonderful care of our fur babies. She followed all care instructions perfectly, kept us updated with great communication, and left the house immaculate. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our pets were safe, loved, and in such great hands. We will absolutely be booking her again!"”

About: I've been around dogs all my life. My grandparents were breeders for Scotties, Cocker Spaniels and Terriers. My personal pets have been Velvet a cooker spaniel, Tobby a shepherd/lab mix, Doobee a shepherd/collie mix and my current cohort is Harley a 50 lb mixed breed rescue from texas. I have completed over 18 months of weekly training with Harley culminating with AKC canine good citizen certificate. What i learned from that experience was the importance and significance of consistency. Additionally that I am trained to be as consistent as possible in providing the type of care that you prefer for your pet. I'm retired so I am usually available anytime and can do same day appointments. I'm usually up before 6am and keep late night hours also so please feel free to contact me anytime. I have a fenced yard and can easily crate your pet if needed. I have one pet friendly dog at home if your pet likes company. I do not have any children living at my home.

“Brandi was awesome again. She took great care of Sammy while we got out of town for a few days. Brandi sent pics and updates. He was happy when we got home and we could tell he was good while we were gone. We will definitely ask for Brandi again for next vacation.”

“THE ABSOLUTE BEST! That is where I start. We had to book him in a pinch and we were able to get a meet and greet in with Khalil and our 3(65# plus) dogs. The meet and greet went great and he showed up on time 3 days later. We received photos every single day. He stayed in our home and was able to keep them entertained while there. The photos we received they were always looking happy. We were gone for 10 days and when we came back it was like we had just left with the house being clean. Khalil stayed in our guest room. We didn't ask him to but he took the sheets off of the bed and put them in the laundry room. The dishes he had used were put in the dishwasher. Main thing was to take care of our dogs and he went above and beyond on that! We will absolutely recommend Khalil to anyone and everyone looking for short and long term stays. Khalil was very responsive. We will be going back to him when we have to be out of town again. Khalil made it so easy to trust that they would be in good hands and taken care of the entire time. I could go on and on. An overall phenomenal experience.”

About: Being apart from my furbabies made me start doing dog sitting, and I fell in loved with the experience and how it turned our home more fun and exciting and have decided to keep it going. I’m an Air Force veteran and used to work on call for 14 hour shifts, an hour away from home, 3-4 days a week and the worst was leaving my dog. I always wanted people to send me pictures, texts, updates, etc. but rarely could get them so I GET IT!!! I send tons of pictures, possibly a bit overboard, I know how much it means to people who travel. I do everything that I used to want when I traveled!!! To help ensure that we will be the right fit for you and your dog, please make sure you read this entire profile and understand any additional fees that may apply (listed at end of profile) before contacting me to avoid rate misunderstandings. Rates are inclusive of all care required within our home or at your home, along with plenty of photos/ videos, sent to your preferred method or in a group chat with your loved ones so you can share the moments together even you are away from each other. Please understand that just because your dog is friendly and gets excited when seeing or meeting other dogs, it does not mean they are completely socialized. Some dogs can trigger others by not respecting personal space (both with dogs and humans) therefore I would have to correct that behavior so they know how to act the next time that scenario occurs. I also want to be consistent with the boundaries and structure you as the owner have provided in order to keep your dog balanced in this new environment. Most of all, please be honest about your dog's habits so that I can be prepared to best care for your furbaby. Please understand that the less time I spend correcting them, the more time I can spend giving them love and fun. My goal is to make sure all the doggies have a blast; however, beyond that our priority is their safety and that they are a good fit for our pack. Therefore if it is not a last minute request then I always require a meet-and-greet. Please note I don't usually accept last minute requests for services in my home but I am happy to assist if available, depending on pack compatibility and ability to separate if needed. Dogs that are not from the same household are not left unsupervised together. If I am hosting multiple guests you will be informed. However your dog will need to be crated (or left in the playpen) when left unsupervised since this is our home and it wouldn’t be unexpected for a dog to potentially act differently in a new place than at their own home. Which is also why we request owners being their pup’s own crate (when possible) that they are already used to so they are comfortable being in it when at new place. ***POLICIES & ADDITIONAL FEES*** Holiday fee- Per Rover policy, applies to all nights/ walks/ drop-ins on a booking. This fee is applied to every pet for boarding/ daycare services and to the first pet on Drop-in/ Walks services. Holiday fee is applicable to the entire stay when it overlap the holiday day or the weekend of the following federal and cultural holidays: - Martin Luther King Jr. Day - President's Day - Valentine's Day - Easter - Memorial Day - 4th of July - Labor Day - Halloween - Thanksgiving (Wednesday- Sunday) - Christmas through New Year's (Dec. 23rd- Jan.2nd) Unaltered dogs may be considered on a case-by-case basis and may incur an additional fee if it is determined special accommodations need to be made. Females in heat are never accepted for any boarding or daycare guests. If your dog comes into heat during a stay, you will be required to make immediate alternate pet care arrangements through an emergency contact, your vet office or other. If arrangements are not made in a timely manner, an additional daily fee of $100 will be applied. If your pup is older than 2 and is still a strong leash puller or has behavioral issues that require significant attention, then there is an additional charge of $5/ night. This is because as strong leash puller is more physically demanding and throws off the balance of the rest of the pack. When a dog is unable to walk with the pack it often results in requiring me to do extra walks which takes playtime and TLC away from other dogs. I want to enjoy the walk as much as your dog therefore please also be mindful of the type of collar, harness and leash you use on your pups since it can play a huge role on how your dog walks and whether you can make it heel for you. Please make sure you always provide sitters with the correct tools for your specific dog (and their unique behavior) which means an appropriate collar or harness. I am happy to provide suggestions and give you some options. Additional examples of behavioral issues would be dogs that are chronic whiners or barkers and if your adult dog has a history of indoor marking, please be honest and understand we may need to crate it for up to 4-6 hrs max (usually less). It's not right for any sitter to have to clean up after a grown dog and if you are honest with us about potential issues you are aware of then we can be pro-active in preventing accidents. New clients: Test daycare or overnight stay required for anything longer than one night (especially holidays) so we can make sure it's a good fit. If your dog shows any aggression toward other dogs, this would not be a good fit. Because I do Rover full time, I need to make sure your dog is completely good with all ages of dogs (some dogs just don't like puppy energy.) I can separate them but I prefer not to for longer stays and/or holiday weeks. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable dog walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting throughout the week. As a small business owner, I manage my own schedule, making it easy to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits with advance notice. I keep my calendar up to date and only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to, ensuring every pet receives dependable, attentive care. I treat every client’s home with the same care and respect I would my own. During each visit, I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of affection. I always ensure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, clean up after pets, and send updates with photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“Kaitlyn was awesome caring for our two dogs while we were away on our first week long vacation! She kindly accepted our request on short notice when we were in a pinch. I am glad we found her and will definitely book with her again!”

About: Hi there! I’m a mom and a graduate student, and I am so excited to be getting back to my roots doing what I love most—taking care of animals. My very first job back in the day was at a pet store caring for the puppies. I was the one making sure they were fed, bathed, and that their cages were spotless every single day, so I know exactly what it takes to keep animals happy and healthy. My love for animals doesn't stop at cats and dogs, though! I truly love all kinds of animals and have experience with everything from horses, goats, and chickens to our usual furry family members. When your pets are with me, they will be treated exactly like my own cat and dog—with tons of love, attention, and care. My Schedule & Home Because I’m a student, my schedule is incredibly flexible. I am available during the day, nights, and weekends for whatever you need: Walks to get their energy out Drop-ins for quick potty breaks, feeding, and attention Overnights so they have company while you're away Plus, if your pups come to hang out at my place, I have a fully fenced-in yard where they can run around and play safely outside. I know how hard it is to leave your pets, so I’m happy to send you quick photo updates while you're gone so you know they are having a great time. I'd love to set up a quick meet-and-greet to make sure it's a perfect match for your fur baby! My schedule is very flexible, so I have a lot of free time during the day, nights, and weekends. I can easily fit in walks, drop-ins, or overnights, ensuring your pet gets plenty of attention and regular potty breaks. ​In my home, pets can play safely in a fully fenced yard. I have a dog and a cat of my own, but I can easily crate your dog if they prefer their own space. In your home, I strictly follow your routine to keep your pets safe, fed, and loved like my own.

About: Hi! We have over 9 years of pet sitting and taking care of pet experience! I used to work in a dog shelter where there was a quick need for dogs in quick care and for fun playtimes! My husband and I take care of dogs together it helps me especially if the dog is very big and tuff! We are very organized and we are quick to get tasks done. Rey is also bilingual in Spanish and English just in case so there’s no language barrier We also have 2 sweet dogs of our own. We genuinely love dogs and we just love to see them happy it doesn’t take them much to please them and to make their day which we truly have the experience and capability to be able to do that for your dog :) Rey works a part time as a paralegal. She spaces out hours for pet care so she can be able to give any potential furry friend the care that is needed! :) We live in a home with a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs have plenty of safe space to play, explore, and get exercise. We are in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood and make sure every dog in our care receives lots of love, attention, and supervision. We understand life can get busy or unexpected plans can come up, so we are happy to accommodate same-day bookings when available to help provide reliable care when you need it most. Whether your pet enjoys relaxing, playing outside, or staying active, we strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and right at home. We treat every pet like family and always prioritize their safety, happiness, and routine.
