About: I’ve cared for animals throughout my life and professionally work in veterinary medicine, where I care for dogs, cats, and exotic pets. I’m comfortable with pets of all personalities, ages, and energy levels, and I understand how important it is to follow each pet’s individual routine. My veterinary experience has also taught me to recognize changes in behavior, appetite, energy, and overall well-being. Most importantly, I treat every pet with patience, attention, and the same love I give my own. My schedule gives me flexibility for pet care, especially evenings, weekends, and days when I’m not working. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s specific routine and make sure I only accept bookings that I can give my full attention to. I’m especially interested in weekend boarding, drop-ins, walks, and house sitting. I take pet safety seriously and treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. My veterinary experience has taught me to be attentive to behavior, health changes, medications, feeding routines, and individual needs. I follow each pet parent’s instructions carefully, provide regular updates, and make sure pets are supervised and comfortable in a safe environment. I also have a small fenced in yard.
“Juliana did an Excellent job watching our two dogs while we were away. Wonderful communication, always on time and gave lots of love, attention and playtime to our pets. We hope to use Juliana's services in the future. Thanks again for loving on our fur babies while we were away.”
“My pets were well taken care of by Matthew, while we were out of town. We booked him for drop in visits and he even took the time to come and meet the pets before his scheduled visit times. He also took the best pictures while we were away. Will definitely book again.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have owned and cared for them since I was an infant. Currently, I have five dogs of my own, all with different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, which has given me extensive hands-on experience with a wide range of needs and behaviors. Through caring for my own dogs, I am comfortable with feeding routines, walking multiple dogs, administering basic care, and maintaining structure and consistency. I understand how important it is to be patient, attentive, and responsive to each dog’s unique temperament. As a teacher, I bring a high level of responsibility, organization, and communication to everything I do. You can trust that your pet will be cared for in a safe, loving, and dependable environment. I currently teach full-time during the school year and am available for pet care in the evenings after 4:30 p.m., with flexible weekend availability including early mornings, evenings, and last-minute bookings. During the summer, my schedule becomes much more flexible, allowing me to offer a wider range of availability and better meet your pet care needs. For dog walking and drop-in visits, I prioritize safety, consistency, and making sure your pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment. During walks, I ensure dogs are securely leashed at all times, avoid unsafe areas, and tailor the pace and distance to your dog’s age, energy level, and needs. I’m attentive to behavior and surroundings to keep every walk safe and enjoyable. For drop-in visits, I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I also make sure your home is respected and left exactly as I found it. As a dog owner of five, I’m experienced managing different personalities and energy levels, and I bring patience, awareness, and reliability to every visit. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: I love playing fetch and all fur babies! I’ve always had dogs around growing up, from Pomeranians to huskies and even black/yellow Labs. My own dog Sache has a history of seizures, so I am familiar with giving oral and pill medications. I’ve potty trained and crate trained both of our dogs. I’ll be very thorough with any services you hire me for and will send all the pics and updates needed. Feel free to even video call when you’re on vacation! I am currently enrolled in an online course, so I am flexible and can assure your pets will get the attention/interaction they need throughout the day. Generally home all days except for certain dates that’ll be blocked off. Preferred to get a request at least a day in advance. Prefer to do walks before 6pm. Pets have full access in my home. It is very dog friendly. We have a large fenced in yard area as well. There’s also a dog park very close by(walking distance). Dogs will have their own room when it’s time to go to bed or can sleep in my room with me. I am also ok with dog beds or crated, if that’s what they are used to. Dogs are allowed on furniture at my home. Will be sure to send pics and be available for check ins via FaceTime. Please ensure you have proper instructions of feeding schedule, sleeping schedule/area/crated or not, how long they can be left alone if boarding, etc.
“Bailey is super communicative and reliable! She sends pictures and is completely trustworthy & I will hire her again and again! I highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always helped care for family pets, including feeding, walking, bathing, and giving them lots of attention and love. I’ve also pet sat for my cousin’s dog and cat, where I was responsible for their daily routines, walks, feeding, and making sure they felt comfortable while their owner was away. I’m very patient, attentive, and understand how important it is to follow a pet’s routine and make them feel safe in a new environment. I’m comfortable with different dog sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I always make sure pets get the care, exercise, and affection they need.

I’m reliable, responsive, and happy to work with your pet’s specific routine and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow owner instructions closely and make sure pets feel secure and cared for in their own home. I’m attentive on walks, aware of my surroundings, and experienced navigating busy NYC streets safely with dogs. I’ll treat your home and pet with the same care and respect as my own.
About: I have experience caring for mostly small to medium sized dogs, and often I am the one my family and friends call to take care of their dogs while they’re away! I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, so I make it a priority to follow each owner’s instructions carefully to help them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. My experience includes feeding, providing fresh water, daily walks, playtime, and giving plenty of attention and affection. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, I strive to provide dependable, loving care and treat every dog as if they were my own baby! 🐶 I’m currently available full-time to take care of fur babies! I will be going to school sometime in August so that’s when my schedule will change a bit. My current routine allows me to provide attentive and dependable care for your babies! I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they get the attention, exercise, and affection they need throughout the day. I am able to follow your pet’s normal schedule, including meals, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions you provide. I believe keeping a pet’s routine consistent helps them feel comfortable and happy while their parents are away! I do have an orange cat that will be put up in his room while I take care of your babies, so no need to worry about interactions. I also have a fenced backyard so plenty of space for them to run around or go potty. And I live in a neighborhood with good walking trails.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Selma
This was my first time hiring someone I didn’t know to visit our dogs while my wife and I were at work, and Kelsie made everything so easy. It put our minds at ease seeing how professional she is and how good she is with our dogs. With 3 dogs, all with different behaviors, she handled herself well with them. Would definitely book with her again.
Tara is an amazing sitter for our fur babies. She is very knowledgeable and comfortable with the dogs. The dogs loved her from the moment they met her. She was fantastic in making sure our older dog took her medicine. I really appreciate that she took the time to play with them during her visits. We loved getting updates and knew our pups were in great hands. I would highly recommend Tara if you want someone who will love your dogs as much as you do.
John is one of the most courteous and caring people I have met in awhile. Roxie loved him immediately and she is not always loving toward people. She loved his visits and was obviously in great spirits when we got home. I could watch them play in out backyard on our Ring camera. Thank you, John you are highly prized, and recommended for anyone in the Selma area.
