“We love, Marissa! This was our second time having her stay at our home with our 2 dogs and cat.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 9 years old. I've handled different kinds of breeds. All dogs have different personalities and I've been able to adapt to all. I'm good at paying close attention to detail if I notice something if off when it comes to my clients pets. I treat all their pets as if they were my own! I am currently working towards school and I am unemployed at the moment. I have an open availability, unless I have another client during that time. I have an open backyard with a fence for my dogs to run around. One of my dogs is playful and the other is on the reserved side. I make sure they get all their energy out! In my clients home, I make sure there are frequent potty breaks and playtime. I also make sure your house stays cleaned as far as toys & such.

“Makayla so obviously loves animals! Our 11 month old Lab “puppy” is crazy about her and could care less when my husband and I leave. I don’t need to worry at all while we’re away, plus we get photos and updates too. She’s intelligent, caring and personable. We will most definitely call on her again. Jan &Tex Billings”

“Rebecca is wonderful. She is extremely conscientious and personable. The dogs both liked her immediately. My Aussie is a picky boy so this is saying something! I felt comfortable with Rebecca staying at my house and confident my dogs were safe. My dogs are around 60 and 50lbs. I will be calling on her again!”

“Jenny was great with our pets! Very attentive to their needs and different personalities. This is our second booking, and we look forward to booking again.”

About: I’m a lifelong dog owner and caregiver with practical experience volunteering at SASA. I’ve also worked with local and national 501(c) rescues and provided foster care. This background has given me steady, real-world handling skills and a calm, safety-first approach. I’ve completed the Fear Free Shelters program core modules and continuing education in Fear-Free handling and canine body-language awareness, which helps me keep dogs calm and comfortable during care. I’m comfortable reading canine body language, supporting different temperaments and special needs, and creating low-stress, predictable interactions that help dogs feel secure. I focus on calm handling, clear boundaries, and routines that reduce anxiety and help dogs settle comfortably. My goal is simple: keep dogs feeling safe, happy, understood, and well cared for. I’m retired, so my schedule is relaxed and easy to work around. I have plenty of time to keep your pup happy and engaged, and I enjoy making their day fun and interesting. Most of my availability is during daytime hours, with occasional morning or evening care when needed. I also send regular photo updates so you can see how your dog’s day is going. I use a calm, friendly approach that keeps dogs feeling safe and relaxed. I’ve completed the Fear Free Shelters program core modules and training in canine body-language awareness, which helps me recognize stress signals early and support dogs in a gentle, low-pressure way. My home provides a calm environment where dogs can relax and settle into predictable routines. I’ve worked with many breeds and personalities, so I adjust to each dog’s comfort level and needs. I maintain a safety-first approach at all times. I’m familiar with basic canine first aid and keep emergency contacts and veterinary information readily available if needed. For safety, I do not take dogs to dog parks. I’m also happy to schedule a quick meet-and-greet beforehand to make sure everyone feels comfortable and it’s a good fit. Large fenced yard with locked gates and a clean, level surface for safe play and potty breaks. The yard has pet beds, toys, shade, and always fresh water available. My home and yard are free of toxic flowers and plants so dogs can safely relax and explore. I accept only one client household at a time so each dog receives calm, focused care and attention.

“My first time using Rover and it was a great experience. My animals obviously loved Amanda and it was apparent they were well cared for. Definitely scheduling Amanda again.”

About: I've had dogs my entire life and at this moment I have 2 friendly dogs; a 13 year old terrier mix and a 2 year old mini pitcher. I have a quiet clean (not scrubbed just cozy) home. Dogs are able to sit on couch, sleep with me in my king bed, have snack breaks and go in the backyard for potty breaks and to play fetch. My fenced backyard has a large grass area and a covered patio, we spend lots of time hanging out there on nicer days. I own my home in a nicer neighborhood since 2012. I'm super casual and easy going with a drug, smoke and alcohol free home. Your dogs will be spoiled! Dogs have lots of indoor and outdoor play time. If dogs have thier own dog food, I'll put the other dogs outside to make sure they get thier meal times otherwise I have plenty of blue buffalo dog food I mix with Purina. A morning potty out back while I prepare and separate dog bowls then they can all come in unless a dog is on a special diet then ill feed them separately. My backyard is fenced with locked gates. They get treats throughout the day and a dinner before bed. Then if they want to sleep on the bed with me they can otherwise there's thick blankets on the floor near me.

About: I have been around dogs my whole life. Growing up I’ve always been an animal person! I also work at a pet groomers and I am around dogs everyday and would love to meet and spend time with your furr babies! I work mornings every day week day and I am able to watch and take of your furr babies any time after work as if they were my own! I am able to watch your animals and accommodate to their wants and needs! I can provide love and care for your babies as if they are my own!

“Donna was amazing with all my little doggies. She really went the extra mile to ensure my doggies were comfortable and well taken care of. She was very sweet to my boys and did everything just as I would do so that made me feel so content leaving them with her. She sent me photos and text updates my entire trip and I very much loved seeing them everyday. She’s amazing and I would highly recommend her. Thank you Donna for all that you did I really appreciate you.”

“This is the second time that Daisy has looked after our elderly husky. Once again, we were extremely happy by the standard of care she provided while we were gone for the day. Daisy was friendly, respectful of our home and attentive to our requests, regarding dog care. When we returned, it was clear our dog had felt very comfortable with Daisy. We very much look forward to the next time she looks after our pup. Thank you Daisy! 😊”

About: I love animals and would love to help you watch yours if you're out or take them on walks for you! I had a German-Shorthaired Pointer/Labrador mix for 11 years, he passed away recently but brought years of joy and experience with a highly-energetic dog. I recently got my first cat, and I have lived with several other dogs and cats. I do not have any professional experience grooming or dealing with animals, but I am more than willing to help out with letting dogs out, taking them on walks, etc. I definitely have plenty of experience walking dogs because of my little guy. I look forward to hearing from you soon! I currently have quite open availability, almost any day and time should work with some notice, and I will try to make it work regardless. I have a fenced-in yard where a dog can go outside/play fetch. I have 1 cat, but he can be kept in a separate area of the house if preferred.

“Brittany provides outstanding care for our two dogs every time we are on vacation. Her dedication and love for our pets give us complete peace of mind. We appreciate the regular updates and highly recommend her reliable and compassionate service."”

About: I have a 5 year old rescue that we raised since she was a puppy. I have experience with dogs of all ages and can adjust my style of care to meet your dogs needs. Sometimes more intensive exercise can be hard to find time for when owners are working during the day. I am more than happy to take your pup on a run with me around the neighborhood for those high energy pets! I will work with you to make sure I am providing the care that you want for your pup. I am available throughout the mornings and midday during the work week. If there is a specific schedule you would like to keep, please let me know and we can figure something out. Please see my availability for more details. I focus on making sure your pup gets the attention and care they need while I am with them. Being home for hours can be stressful for pets, and I am happy to provide some care for them while you are away.

“Emma was AMAZING to my three seniors and spoiled chihuahuas. As old babies, they have special needs. She was on time for meals and medication ( insulin 2x/day). My dogs were comfortable with her care and kindness. I relaxed for three days when I saw by the home cameras she followed the rules about my diabetic dog food and insulin injections. She was confident and made me trust in her care. We are so glad to had her in our house. I really appreciated her care to my seniors Chihuahuas 💙🩷🩷 Thank you so so much, Emma🙏 Lots love from Gaucho, Panda, Cookie, Claudia e John🙏🙏”

About: I have formal training as a veterinary assistant (6 years) and am currently in school to become a Veterinarian so I do have a lot of hands-on with animals and how to take care of them, administer medication’s, and injections. Currently I am available full time until school starts back up in February. Throughout the week, I am able to drop in on your pet and check in. . I will be updating my schedule every week so that you guys know . I am able to provide frequent potty breaks when I take care of your pets on the weekends that does not go to say that on other days, they won’t get taken out to use the restroom haha. All the pets I’ve had in the past were given the best care from making sure all their needs were met and ensuring they weren’t put in harms way . When I walk my pets I am vigilant of other people and their dogs incase of an incident were to occur . If it is a hot day I ensure to walk them in a cool environment if feasible and always bring water incase the heat is too much . I do pay close attention to detail when it comes to my pets and your pets. I am able to trim nails and to bathe if needed. Of course, making sure water and food is available at all times and cleaning up in the case of an accident.

About: I've always had dogs and crate trained my dogs. I know how to train basic commands but nothing really beyond that. I do love playing with dogs and also relaxing with them as well. I do work full time but I do work from home most of the week. So my schedule is pretty flexible for the most part. I have a fenced yard, and 4 friendly dogs. We do have 2 cats but they stay outside as they don't like our dogs. I make sure the the pet I babysit is comfortable and listen to instructions on the owners requests.
