“Isabel did an excellent job with my German shepherds. My dogs felt comfortable around her, she was very attentive and communicative throughout each drop in visit. Would highly recommend her!”

About: I have had animals all of my life. Not only have I owned a large variety(cats, dogs, chickens, birds, reptiles etc) but I worked at several different pet stores working with all types of animals. As an adult, I’ve done a lot of pet sitting and fostering/volunteering at local humane societies! I am a stay at home mom and my kids are all in school. I love caring for animals in my spare time. My kids are also animal friendly and love helping to care for our own animals! I have a larger home with plenty of space to roam. My children all know how to interact with animals properly, and even enjoy helping! We do not have a fenced in yard but are just fine with putting pups on a leash to go outside.

“Caitlyn was an amazing sitter. The booking was truly last minute and she responded right away. She was super attentive to our furry friends and, when we returned, surprised us with teaching one of our dogs a new trick! I would definitely recommend her for anyone interested in having someone who is truly caring watch over their pets.”

About: On Mondays and Tuesdays I am off work Any other day I’m free until 1230 for walks I work from 2-10 Wednesday through Sunday I treat every animal as if it were my own Either letting a cat sit on my lap until I can’t feel my legs Or training in basic commands and manners To throwing a ball or stick until my arm is numb I love animals and all the fun that goes with it ** I did have to raise my rates due to rovers fee** I have been taking care of animals since I was little but really got into it around 7th and 8th grade Walking peoples dogs and putting up flyers at my local pool I have many repeat clients for over 3 years so many great pups(had to stop because of highschool) I helped a lot of them loose weight from daily 20-30 minute walks I still remember every dog I walked and boarded Nothing has changed except now I work morning shift as a security guard but my wife is home to take care of any dogs kept with us After I’m done with work I then take over with walks and playing in the backyard Everyone will get plenty of water If anyone gets dirty then it’s bath time or at least a good thorough wipe down Your pets will be treated like my own kids while they are being taken care of with the Diamond family After I’m done with work at 2pm I come home and spend all the time I have until bed time with my animals or as I call them my kids Walking playing in the backyard playing fetch and tag and even keep away which never lasts long for me I have a fenced in yard and plenty of toys to offer When it’s very hot we do some playing in the yard and then it’s time for a walk and then we take a 45 minute to an hour break for a nap or rest and then we do it all over again All animals should feel welcome in my home and spoiled decently as my animals are All animals that stay with me must have a collapsible crate brought in with them so that nobody gets into anything they shouldn’t at night Night time is crate time as we have cats we let wander at night
About: I have taken care of our dogs since we got them. I love them so much and I love to see more happy pups in the world! I am currently a full-time college student, so my availability varies, but I generally have late morning to mid-day and evening availability. I'm very flexible! I love to give lots of pets to my dogs and cats. I will do whatever you need me to, I will feed your pets, play with them, walk with them and make sure they are happy and healthy when you get home! If your animal has any special needs I'm more than happy to accommodate!
“Stacy did a wonderful job with my girls. She showed care and thoughtfulness, asked al the important questions and I feel very comfortable trusting her with my girls again. Thank you Stacy!”
“Patten was a God send, since I had to pull last minute shifts with the wife being away for work. Daisy took to her so well and she really made sure to keep Daisy company and not just feed her take her out and leave for the day. She truly cared enough to play with Daisy and make sure that she ate all her food before she would take her out. Again cannot be more grateful how helpful and caring she was to Daisy.”

“We’ve used a few pet sitters through Rover over the years. Kayla is among the best! We enjoyed the updates and photos that came after each visit. One of our cats does not usually come out for strangers, but he was front and center with Kayla. If Thunder (our shy cat) is good with Kayla, so are we! We already booked her again!”

About: I love animals and have grown up taking care of many different pets. From foster kittens a few days old up to an again mastiff, I'm comfortable taking care of animals of all shapes and sizes. Today I have 2 dogs at home, and would love to care for your pets! I am currently on maternity leave with my newborn so am typically fairly open with accommodating schedules. I am most available between 8am - 3pm on weekdays but may be able to accommodate evenings or weekends with enough notice. I will bring my newborn with me to any visit so cannot accommodate a pet that can't be around children. I will care for your pet and home as if they were my own and ensure they are safe and cared for during a visit. I am happy to take animals out for a walk or just play in your home or yard depending on your preference.
About: I was a puppy raiser for The Seeing-Eye between 2005 and 2016. My family raised 6 puppies starting at 8 weeks old, so I am well-versed in both puppy care and training. As puppy raisers it is our job to socialize our puppies to new environments and teach them basic obedience and manners as they will need to be well-behaved in public for their future blind partner. I also formerly worked at the family dog training school. I've lived with primarily German Shepherds, as well as a pitbull and collie. Though I have met and understand a wide variety of dog breeds. My animal experience doesn't stop at dogs & cats, either! I've personally owned or cared for rats, gerbils, mice, guinea pigs, freshwater fish, snakes, lizards and even horses! I currently have a retail job with random hours so my schedules will vary week by week. I do typically have Wednesdays off of work, though. I have a fenced yard at home and can bring many of my own supplies if needed. I have spare leashes, toys, bowls, anything you might need.
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I have for every animal I meet! As a lifelong animal lover and pet owner myself, I understand that pets are family, and I treat them as if they were my own. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who need extra patience, comfort, and attention. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique personality and routine, whether that means playtime and enrichment for younger pets or providing a calm, nurturing environment for older companions! I believe in building trust with both pets and their owners through reliability, communication, and compassionate care. I love getting to know each pet’s individual needs, favorite activities, and little quirks. Whether it’s sticking to a feeding schedule, administering extra TLC to anxious pets, or making sure your furry friend gets plenty of cuddles and playtime, I always go the extra mile!! My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and spoiled while you’re away, giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands! As a lifelong animal lover and pet owner, caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine! I currently have plenty of availability, allowing me to give each pet the time, love, and attention they deserve! In My Home: When caring for pets in my home, I strive to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where they can feel comfortable and secure. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and any special instructions provided by their owners! Pets in my care receive plenty of attention, affection, enrichment, and supervision. Whether your pet loves to play, cuddle, or simply relax, I make sure they feel right at home and are treated like part of the family! In Clients’ Homes: When caring for pets in their own homes, I understand how important it is to maintain consistency and respect their familiar environment. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications (if needed), walks, playtime, and household routines to help pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so pet parents can have peace of mind knowing their furry family members are happy and well cared for. My goal is always to ensure pets feel loved, safe, and cared for in the comfort of their own home!!
About: I’ve been pet sitting for four years. I have experience with all kinds of animals, such as cats and dogs, snakes, mice, horses, and more. I’m a very soft spoken person and animals tend to warm up to me pretty quickly. I’m currently working part time. I’m offering pet care, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. Those are my scheduled days off for my current job. I’m very flexible on the weekend and holidays. While providing services in other peoples homes, I insure that the doors are always locked, everything is left how it is found, and that no mess is left behind. Most importantly, I make sure the pets are safe and happy.

“Amber is a life saver! She is super flexible, responds quickly and is very considerate about how we raise and train our pup. We have used Amber’s services several times this month and we’re very happy with the care she provides. Boba is always very excited (and relieved) when she visits!”

About: I have over 25 years of dog breeding experience and I would love to care for your loved ones in our home. Large home and plenty of running room in our spacious yard. I cannot take care of male dogs over 30 lbs due to a female dog in the household. I can take care of female fur babies of less than 30 lbs. I work from home and have plenty of time to give your fur baby the attention he or she needs. Taking care of dogs are my specialty. I have a fenced in yard and a female lab who loves to go for walks and play. Your fur baby will have plenty of friends caring for him or her.
“Ashli did a great job dealing with a challenging situation that came up with my cats’ microchip feeders. She was communicative and worked with me to find a solution. I appreciated her willingness to go the extra mile to make sure my kitties would be safe. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and hope to call on her again.”

About: I have been taking care of family and friends pets for over 15 years! I do not have a dog of my own, but love dogs and would love the opportunity to show your dog some love and attention. I live near a dog park and love taking dogs there to run around and play. I work from home several days a week and would love the company and companionship of your dog! I am off on weekends and do not have a busy weekend schedule. The dog would get lots of attention. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do live in town and have lots of safe areas to walk the dog. Not to mention my town has a dog park!
