About: *Now accepting new reoccurring clients starting May 16th!* I have been taking care of dogs ever since I was 15 years old. I have 2 dogs myself, a Blue Heeler and Bloodhound. I have no issues with larger and energetic dogs. I have been dog sitting my coworkers dogs for the last 8 years and have watched from Toy Poodle to Bernadoodle sized. I also can help with senior dogs and have experience giving medications, not injectables. I am currently attending online college so I have a free schedule all throughout the week. I can be available all hours Monday - Friday. In your home I can walk your dogs, sit and play, feed, groom, and also reinforce training and manners. I have no time constraint on walking for my own physical capability.

“First time Rover user! Haley was polite and accommodating. She came last minute as I am recovering from surgery and my boys were getting stir crazy being confined to the house and the back yard. She was patient, observant and my boys loved her!”


“Jada is FANTASTIC! I'm working night shifts as a medical student on an away rotation and was so nervous about leaving my dog overnight alone. Jada offered to come do a meet and greet the day before. She arrived promptly and my dog loved her. She came for an hour every night to walk him and hang out with him. One night I forgot to feed him and she gave him his dinner. She took lots of pictures and videos which I LOVE. Can't say enough wonderful things about her!”

About: I’ve been around dogs most of my life. I grew up with American Bulldogs. In high school I spent 3 years volunteering at the Humane Society walking and training dogs the basic commands. Now I own a Golden Retriever/ Australian Shepard, Loki. He is the sweetest boy. I have trained him myself. He currently knows Sit, Lay down, Paw (both sides), is potty and crate trained, does sit/wait before going outside, and is working on a few more tricks. I don’t have a fenced in yard, but there is a dog park nearby that isn’t usually busy that I always go to. I have two-fur children now, so I am used to the schedule of both cats and dogs. I work remotely so I am always home. I have a 4 year old cat, who is a sweet but smart boy. He loves playing with dogs, but will run if he gets too overwhelmed. I also have a Golden Retriever/ Australian Shepard mix (born April 2023). He gets fed twice a day, walked almost daily, and goes to the dog park in the neighborhood several times a week. He is crate trained, but no longer uses it.

About: * DUE TO COVID I WILL BE WEARING A MASK AND GLOVES UPON ENTERING THE HOME* I’ve grown up with pets all my life and have a dog and 2 cats of my own. When I first tried Rover I was so nervous but ended up finding someone great it makes sense that if I was cautious to try then other people are too. I’m excited to take care of pets the way I want mine cared for. I believe that pets are family and leaving pets at home can be scary but my dog was so relaxed being able to stay where she is familiar with her surroundings and to just come home and jump back in to routine was a good feeling. It will be my personal goal to provide reassurance to both you and your companion while you’re away. At the beginning of 2022 I decided I wanted to be a dog trainer and am currently trying enrolled with Animal Behavior College to come a certified trainer. With this I've also completed the CPR certification for cats and dogs. My full time job was able to give me Fridays and Saturdays for the more likely chances for myself to give the care to family pets that I want for my animals. With my services I always do a check or other possible dogs around. If I am unable to cross the street of a passerby with a dog and safely I do so because I do not know the other dog well enough to know if it is okay. However if I am in a situation where I do have to pass another dog I speak up and ask if the dog is friendly while also being away of the pet I'm walking and how he or she is approaching.

“Able to help me out at the last minute on a day I was operating. Will use again!”

“Shailin is great! We will definitely use her again!”
