“Christine was wonderful. We weren’t able to have a meet & greet due to timing, but she made a point to call me before her first walk with our dog, which meant so much to me!! She was easy to communicate with and always arrived on time. Our dog loved her walks and play time at home with Christine. Would definitely recommend!!!”

“Arnie is very good with Bella, as he understand little dog behavior and cues. Bella loved her walks and affection from Arnie, and looks forward to more walks in his care.”

About: I am reliable, loving, and attentive, ensuring pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared for while their owners are away. I feel pets are part of the family and I do allow them on my furniture and give lots of snuggles and kisses. I have over 26 years of experience raising my own pets to identify sickness and can administer meds (including insulin shots) if needed. Your fur babies will be my top priority and I promise to care for them like they are my own. I am available for watching your fur baby in my home to include overnight or coming to your house (not overnight), walks, or other care you may need. My schedule is flexible and will accommodate your needs. I have a privacy fenced yard and 4 sweet pups of my own to keep your dog(s) company. My property has multiple video cameras for security and I can send you photos and videos while you are away or FaceTime with you so you can see your babies are having fun and being well taken care of and loved. I understand pet care very well as I have had 8 fur babies previous to the 4 I have currently from big dogs to little dogs. I am very aware of changes in behavior or if fur babies aren’t feeling well and will communicate with you if I think your baby is not feeling well.
About: I'm Hannah! I have two boys, ages 3 and 7. My kids are great with dogs as we have been doing Rover for over 6 years. We are dog lovers and we would love to have your doggy in our home while you are away! I can offer as much or as little outside time that’s needed. Your baby will be in great hands while you’re away and you won’t miss a beat with all the pictures that are sent your way. Your dog will get a lot of outside time, exercise, play time, snuggles and freedom. Please feel free to message me with any questions or special requests. (: I have a flexible work schedule and work from home 3 days a week. We love to be outdoors playing but are also completely fine staying inside and relaxing. We treat any dog in our home like family. We try to make them feel as comfortable as possible as we understand that being out of their home and away from their owners can cause different behaviors such as anxiety, sadness, hyperness, etc.
“Robin was awesome! Easy to work with and she was great with our nervous pup. She helped us out so much in the early weeks of postpartum by giving our pup some much needed exercise. Well definitely work with Robin again in the future!”
“I messaged Jaden and she was able to come that same evening for a meet and great, and start walks as early as the next day. I highly recommend her! Jaden has been walking my puppy Toby for 3 weeks now. On time, great communication, super flexible and has great availability. Will continue to work with Jaden moving forward.”

My childhood dog was a toy poodle and now I have 2 German shepherds! All raised from pups. I’m comfortable working with all pet animals size or age doesn’t matter I love em! Im currently in college studying sports medicine, im hoping this can become a part time job for me! I am available Monday-Friday anywhere from 8am to 3pm. Your fur baby has my best interests! Whether we’re on a walk or just checking in, I’ve worked with harnesses and collars. My animals are my life and I 100% understand that they’re your’s too!
About: I grew up with dogs and have trained up two puppies in the last five years, one of them was a hunting dog. Currently I have a four-year-old tabby named Coco! I love to be active and play outside but I’m also happy to just sit and love on your fur babies, throw around toys or whatever makes your animals happy! I typically work Monday through Thursday until about 3 PM. I’m happy to do evening care if you’re working late or if you need someone for a long weekend to pop in! I am a big fan of the philosophy, meet people or in this case pets where they are.

About: I have had dogs all my life, from German Shepherds, Cocker Spaniels, and now Golden Retrievers. Nine years ago I decided to foster and do home visits for a rescue. I ensure they get vetted, groomed, and work with any behavior issues from being abused or neglected. I have plenty of patience and make sure above all else, they know they are safe and loved. That is all our fur babies want is to be safe, loved, and taken care of and the unconditional love you get in return is simply amazing. Let me take care of your fur baby and I know you will be glad you did. I’m retired now and just want to do what I love, taken care of fur babies. I can help you anytime, just let me know what you need. I have a fenced in yard, and two friendly Goldens at home that get along with everyone. I can crate your dog if needed or they can have run of the house with mine. We have plenty of toys from ones to chew on, to several to play ball or frisbee outside. It doesn’t matter the age of your pet, I have had and adopted several older dogs, I love them all and they will get the best care. I have farm land in front of me to take them for walks if you would like that as well. Your pets will be well taken care of and safe.
About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was five years old. I grew up with a cocker spaniel, who really tied our family together with love. In grad school I rescued a mix breed and named her Eirene, which means peace. She brought a lot of peace to my life. We have doodles now, who are perfect family dogs. When we go away we like to know our dogs are being well cared for. I enjoy offering that peace of mind to families. You can enjoy your time away knowing your pup is in a loving home environment and being well cared for. I’m a homeschooling mom to two teenage boys. Our days are usually spent at home and our evenings are full with various activities. We would welcome your dogs in our home and treat them as part of our family. We have a fenced yard with plenty of space to run and explore. We go on two walks every day, one in the morning and one in the evening and offer endless ear scratches and belly rubs.
About: I have had cats in my family for about thirteen years and I’ve had a dog for seven. My first dog was a German shepherd/lab/pit bull mix, and my second a full bred GSD, so I’m used to lots of long walks. I also love to play with dogs whether it be tug of war or fetch and am also able to do basic obedience training with your pup while in my care. As far as grooming goes, I have experience clipping claws and brushing the dreaded double coats. What sets me a part from the average sitter is I’ll do my best to make sure your pet enjoys its time with me. I will do my best to learn their personalities, likes, and dislikes. I’m also able to provided any medications as needed! If you as owners are gone for an extend period of time it can be stressful for pets, I do my best to ease any potential stress they may have. I work as a Personal Trainer as well, so I availablity throughout the day based off my clients schedules. Especially during those early afternoon times when let’s haven’t been walked since morning. I would treat my clients pets the way my clients would treat them. Adhering to any special instructions and making sure the pets are healthy and happy. I own my own business and am able to check/take care of your pup during the day. They will never be left alone more than a few hours to help reduce boredom and stress I am building a fence here soon and am able to provide your dog with walks, fetches, and hikes. I am able to adapt to your pets needs

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats ever since I can remember! I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, big, and small. I am also comfortable with giving medications!

“While she hasn't watched my pets for me before I can say that she is beyond devoted to her own. All I ever hear about is how her pets are doing, how they're vet trip went, what she has to do next for their health, and what she wants to do next for they're wellbeing and enjoyment. If given the opportunity and materials she could and will care for any pet.”
Taylor G.

Ronda P.
“I have worked in rescue with a Ronda for 12 years. I could always count on her to do exactly what was expected as a volunteer and foster parent. She was responsible, caring, and loving. I knew when she agreed to take in a foster she would do whatever it took to do the best for the dog. She loved and cared for them as her own. I trusted her with countless dogs we took into the rescue and I would trust her with my own dogs. She is a gem and you would be lucky to have her as a part of your organization.”
Yolanda H.
“Yolanda is hands down the best dog sitter ever! She’s so loving and attentive, and it’s clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. She is a great communicator and I always feel like I know what’s going on with my dogs. She has a lot of dog knowledge and always goes the extra mile to make sure they’re happy and comfortable. Her two boys are the sweetest—they absolutely love dogs and are such great helpers! It’s like you’re getting three for one. I always feel completely at ease leaving my pup with Yolanda because I know they’re in the best hands. I can’t recommend her enough!"”
