“Danielle was so good, I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again and will recommend her every chance I get. She went above and beyond in her drop in visits and had such a great attitude. My shy kitty really loved her!!”

“Ashley is great! Sierra took to her right away (and I'll admit she can be a bit difficult). Ashley responds quickly and communicates throughout the process. I would highly recommend her! Thanks for taking great care of my fur baby!”

“Allison made our first Rover experience with Maia an absolute joy! She took great care of our girl over an extended period of time, left really detailed drop in notes, and gave us the peace of mind that our sweet kitty was safe and loved while we were out of town. Thank you, Allison!!”


About: Hello, my name is Adam and I am an avid animal lover! I have had a multitude of animals all throughout my life. Many of those animals were different breeds of dogs, including my current English Bulldog Willow. I give the dogs all of my attention when it comes to bathing, walking, clipping nails, feeding and play time. I love helping out in any way I can and try to go above and beyond if possible. I can handle up to four dogs at any given time; small, medium or large. I am available whenever I am needed, day or night. I can also travel wherever I am needed to as I have my own transportation. I can't wait to meet and care for more dogs!

“Alishia is a great neighbor and dog sitter! I highly recommend. She was communicative the whole trip and made sure my dog was fed, had time to potty, and even some cuddles.

About: I have taken care of many dogs since I was a sophomore in high school, graduated in 2019. I volunteered and then became a worker at a groomer near me. Loved my job, and have cared for many animals since. Currently do not have a job, so I have a free schedule and nothing but love to give to the fur babies, including cats of course. I am very respectful to others homes and belongings. I only want to care for the animals, very trustworthy. If staying at my home, I am sure to take them out every hour, hour in a half unless given specific details. They have their free roam, I also have a pretty decent sized screen in back porch that they can run around a little in.
About: I’ve grown up with and taken care of pets as long as I can remember. I am perfectly fine with taking care of puppies and adults. Hello! I work full time as an MRI Technologist and am able to pet sit part time throughout the week and weekends! I’m free 4 days a week so hopefully I am able to fulfill you and your pets needs in that time. I can relate when it comes to the importance of making sure our pets are happy and safe especially when away from home. Dogs are a humans best friend and I will always treat them as such!
About: Meet your dedicated pet sitter who has spent more than half her life surrounded by furry friends! Since I work from home, I can ensure your pets get the love, care, and attention they deserve in a comfortable and pet friendly environment. With my extensive personal experience growing up and caring for all types animals and my genuine passion for animals, your pets are in safe, loving hands. I also have my own two dogs at home who are the sweetest and get along with everyone and everything and two cats who pretty much live and breathe for 24/7 treats. So whether your animal babies are at my house or yours you can rest easy they will be cared for with love. I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I am able to set my own hours and only work 4 days weeks. So it makes caring for my fur babies and other peoples animals very easy-peasy. I often will go on a short hike, explore a new walking trail (especially if there is some sort of water view on the path) or head to the dog park randomly throughout my day to get a break from the desk and get my pups out. I live in a home that is not fenced in but I have leashes that are secured to the trees in the back so they can roam around and stretch their legs. My dogs know to stay in the backyard but for safety reasons no guest pet will be let outside alone unleashed. I do have 2 cats who are dog friendly so guests must be cat friendly. We live in a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom with a large backyard. I keep the A/C on at 66-68 degrees about 90% of the day, they are able to free roam and are free to sleep on the bed/couch or you may provide their crate or bed to make them more comfortable. I provide filter water for them to drink out of. If your dog has a harness that would be awesome so they can be tethered outside and play with my dogs or just take a nap with my older dog who likes to sub bathe and nap outside. I have two cats who just do their own thing so guest animals must be cat friendly.

Whatever their routine is, would be followed very closely and be kept a close eye on.
