Unplanned overages may be charged. MUST LOVE DOGS & CATS Boarding + Daycare in our home I live with four other people: one human (my partner Jason), one canine (a 2-year-old Border Collie Poodle girl), and two felines (a 1-year-old girl and a 13-year-old queen). All of them are very friendly and well socialized. However, this means that if I board your dog, or take them in for daycare, they have to be familiar and respectful with cats, and well-socialized with dogs. Ideally they love playing and chasing (but not the cats). I work from home on my budding dog business, and I am enrolled in two different prestigious academies, studying canine behavior and training. It is easy for me to have another dog around, but I will require a visit to my house first to ensure the dogs get along, and your dog won't chase my cats. Ideally, we go for a walk together first, to give the dogs the opportunity to meet on neutral turf. I will only take one guest dog at a time. They'll get to play to their heart's content with my dog in a fully fenced large yard. My partner Jason and I just love all animals. I will be your sitter / primary caretaker, but in our home, Jason will give a lot of additional affection and attention, when he's around. I’ve been a dog parent for over 20 years, and have lots of experience with all ages and special needs. I am very diligent about catering to your dog’s specific needs and keeping you updated as frequently as you like, including lots of pictures. FORCE-FREE POLICY I will never use choke, prong, slip, or e-collars of any kind. If you want me to take your dog on walks, please bring a harness for safety. I usually drive my own dog to various trails in the area every morning and we go 3+ miles, I'd be happy to take yours on hikes, too, if they like car rides and can handle the exercise. Your dog will be with me and my dog all day long. Throughout the day, I take frequent breaks and let them out, be it for more walks, or a game of fetch or chase in our large yard. As soon as I'm certified as a dog trainer, I'll be happy to take on training as well. I will watch your dog in my home. I’ll adhere to their normal schedule and needs. They'll have a friendly play buddy in my own dog.

“Maria was great with our high-energy dog! They went on a hike and went to the dog park, and Maria’s pups were great playmates. Freyja came home exhausted and went straight to sleep. You know what they say; a tired dog is a good dog. Maria was very accommodating with Freyja’s specific needs, too! Freyja would go back in a heartbeat!”

“Notre Théo a eu une journée très chargée remplie d'activités et de beaux moments - il fait dodo depuis son retour à la maison, il est crevé !!! Des hôtes très accueillants qui ont su bien gérer notre berger australien de 8 mois, surtout pour une première journée de garde. Nous avons passé une très belle journée sans avoir à ce soucier comment va Théo, nous le savions entre bonnes mains. Un gros merci Maurice et Penny et on garde vos coordonnées pas trop loin !”

“Timber had a great time with Donald, it seemed like a dream day. Donald sent pictures and videos throughout the day of Timber having a blast. On top of running a resting, Timber was able to socialize with a neighboring dog. We came back to a tired happy puppy and look forward to future visits with Donald.”

About: I've been an animal lover and taken care of pets my whole life! Growing up, we had the sweetest yellow lab named Pete. Now, my partner and I adopt old pets and care for them during their retirement. I love animals and will care for your pets as if they were my own. ****** PLEASE NOTE ****** that we have two dogs (an elderly deaf pug named Alice, and a senior terrier mix named Edie) and one cat. Our pets are friendly towards other dogs, cats, and people who come to visit/ stay with us. Please let me know if you have any concerns about your pet staying with our pets, or if they don't have experience with cats. We can discuss and ensure it'll be a good mutual fit. I am an educator at the local elementary school, and offer pet care services to neighbors and visitors to the area. My availability is generally flexible on the weekends, and can extend into the week on a case-by-case basis. I generally offer 3-4 walks per day, including one longer adventure to mountain trails, or another nearby, dog friendly destination. I'm happy to bring your pup to any of their favorite spots (within reason). Of course, it goes without saying that pets are allowed on the furniture and more than welcome to snuggle in bed at night, also open to crating or any special care required.

About: My schedule is flexible so I'm able to spend time throughout the day with your fur baby. I'm active and happy to play fetch for hours! I like to take puppers for multiple walks and give lots of love and pets. The clients I sit for like the fact they can contact me last minute and I'm generally able to adjust my schedule to be available. My schedule changes from week to week but feel free to contact me to double check my availability no matter the season! I like when clients leave me detailed instructions on what their pets normal schedules are, that way there's less stress put on myself and on your fur friend! I'm able to work from home most days of the week, this allows me to be available for all pet needs - morning, lunch time, and after work walks are a part of my daily schedule when we have a dog to take care of. Lots of mental stimulation and training exercises throughout the day to keep them out of trouble helps too! I have a 9 year old cat in the house that tends to keep to herself in the bedroom when there's a dog around. Our home is on 5 acres of land with a big yard to do lots of sniffing around. I'm also located right on the rail trail for longer walks and adventures!

About: Have peace of mind and enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in caring and loving hands at all times 🐩 I started professionally as a pet caregiver in Miami Beach, Florida. Taking care of pets is what I love to do, I do not discriminate against breed, age or medical condition. Complimentary photos/ videos ✅ Extended stays welcome✅ Last minute bookings welcome ✅ Dogs in pairs welcome✅ My regular work is in esthetics. My schedule can be flexible, I can adjust to accommodate my pet sitting clients and their pets specific needs. I think of pets as family. I have a dog of my own who’s basically my son. I treat every pet as if they are my own.

About: I have taken care of my family and friend’s dogs for years. I just found out about Rover from a friend who’s been on Rover for some time and she’s told me just how fun and rewarding it is, so I am giving it a go! I have a Yellow Lab of my own “Jader” who loves going for hikes and swimming in my pond. Currently I am very flexible and would be able to provide walks, pet sitting, and potentially be willing to board on a case by case basis. I look forward to where this Rover journey takes me! At the time I am in flight school which is part time and I have quite a bit of flexibility. So days and evenings are doable. I live on a 100 acre horse farm at the end of quiet dirt road so there is very little traffic. When you come by for the first time you will think this is doggy heaven. My Lab Jader is very easy going and gets along with most dogs. Of course before entertaining any boarding I would have to see how Jader gets along with your dog. Other than that I am used to walking and hiking in public areas so walking the rec path or going up the Pinnacle would not be an issue.

About: Lots of experience watching other dogs and cats. Lifetime animal lover! I have attending dog training courses and am familiar with emergency care. Dogs or cats happy to help watch Pretty flexible and willing to work with your needs. I always work from home , so there is flexibility to be available at any time. I also own FURBO so if I have to step out , your animal will always be watched. I work from home so can accommodate almost any request or care need, just ask! I Can keep your dog or cat separate from my dog if need be.

About: I grew up with cats, fostered dogs in my early 20s, and had the most incredible K9 companion for 14 years. My 14-year-old dog, Hendrix, passed on about two years ago and I am missing his presence and energy A LOT. I want to share my love with some more animals by providing dog walking and animal care for others. Previously, I have cared for and walked dogs for folks in the communities I've lives in via word of mouth. I've also been a volunteer at a local animal shelter, fostering and walking dogs. I have plenty of references upon request that can attest to my trustworthiness as well as the compassionate care I provide. I work from home and my schedule is fairly flexible. I can provide a comforting home for your animal to stay during the day and/or overnight. There are trails right outside my home that are great for walking so your dog would receive many lovely walks throughout the day. I will care for your pet as if they are mine and provide them with compassion, attention, exercise, and play. I will adopt the routine that the animal is familiar with and that best meets their needs. They will be in good hands!
