About: I've been pet sitting since I was very young, and I love doing it! I'm passionate about caring for animals and believe in caring for other people's pets the way I would expect someone to care for mine. Animals are more than pets, they are family. I've been around and cared for a variety of dog breeds, cats, and even reptiles. I've been around animals my whole life since I was very young and my personal experience, and attention to detail helps me give the best of care to your pet. I'm very reliable and respectful towards every person and animal I meet, and can provide references if needed, including references from friends at the spca. Looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies!
“Ruth was able to accommodate our last minute holiday need for walks while we were gone on vacation. Great communication. Loved all the pictures and detailed descriptions of the walks. Thanks again so much Ruth and Happy New Year ❤️”
“Irina is super kind and easygoing! She made sure my little dog Chester was taken care of, and even went the extra mile to drive him to a shaded park for his walk. I loved getting pictures of his happy face! :)”
About: I have been taking care of neighbors, familys, and friends pets for 6 years now. From daily walks to overnight stays, I have always found joy in spending time with animals and making sure they feel loved and comfortable. I always make sure to treat every pet like my own with plenty of attention, patience, and care. Back home I have two dogs, an American Doberman named Mia, and a German Shorthair Pointer named Hunter. I am free anytime and somewhere not too far from me. I am happy to work around your schedule and spend the night with your pet(s) if needed. I cannot have pets stay at my house all though because my Doberman isn’t too fond of other dogs I make sure to keep them safe and comfortable by following their usual routines and respecting the environment they’re familiar with. I carefully follow all instructions provided whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or medication to keep everything consistent and stress-free for your pet. I treat every home with the same respect I give my own, keeping things clean, secure, and exactly as you left them. Most importantly, I take the time to build trust with your pet through patience, attention, and care, so they feel safe and happy while you’re away.

About: I have professionally worked with dogs for 7+ years from training, boarding, and rescuing. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and behaviors and have always had all types of animals in my home. If your dog is reactive or your senior cat would prefer to be fed and left alone, I am willing to accommodate to the needs of every animal. If asked of, I also am confident in pet grooming and returning your pup clean. I would like to clearly state as well I am in no way a licensed vet technician or dog groomer, however I do have plenty of experience in bathing and I can promise your bestfriend will be returned in great conditions! I have a fairly flexible schedule as a student- I try and spend the majority of house sitting stays in the home with your animals. Please reach out with dates and times, and we can work together to arrange a preferred schedule for your pet! I have quite a few clients from outside of rover and can provide additional references upon request. I am unable to providing boarding for your pet at the time, but am available for any size of walks, grooming, and of course in house check ups or hangouts.
About: Im so excited to be working for you! What a treat to be able to love on your beautiful babies! I enjoy pet sitting so much because just like people, animals have their own personalities and it’s really neat for me to discover them in all the little fur friends I get to meet. I am good natured and loving and your pet will notice that right off the bat. I’m caring and compassionate and you won’t have to worry about your babies while I am there. I enjoy overnight stays because I know it’s important for them to be “at home”. It’s easy for me to feel at home wherever I go! I have a kitty and he stays home and is very content with that. He is a super friendly 15 lb MainCoon that has a very sweet personality. He’s always up for belly rubs. He does not accompany me on any of my stays or visits. I have several families that aren’t on rover that I just love so much. So their reviews aren’t on here. But if you need references, please let me know. I’m grateful for the opportunity to hang out with your fur family and know that you can rest easy knowing they are in good hands, I am open to visits and check ins or even long weekends or vacations. It would be great to come to you. Take a vacation and relax knowing your home and sweet babies are being lovingly cared for. Unfortunately I am unable to board any pets at this time. I don’t have the needed space to accommodate them. Thank you so very much!

“Cole was amazing with our beagle puppy, Cowboy. Cole was super communicative and friendly, and he took Cowboy on a long walk at the nearby dog park. Cole has dogs of his own, so he has a wealth of knowledge on how to train and take care of our dog. Would highly recommend Cole!”

“Extraordinarily personable, accepting and supportive of our hyper and high octane pup. By the time the four visits had passed Elaine succeeded in gaining our pups trust. In only took one visit for us. We have our future #1 choice for all care moving forward in Elaine.”
About: I have taken care of pups in multiple different capacities since I was 18. From taking care of older dogs (giving them meds, changing diapers,etc) to watching puppies and helping potty train them. I have always loved dogs, but that love grew so much more when my husband and I got our Corgi-Australian Shepherd pup 3 years ago. I understand the feeling of wanting to make sure your dog is taken care of when you are gone for long hours. If you choose me, I will make sure to not only follow your instructions but make your pup feel loved, so that you can enjoy your day and not be worried. I work part time from home so I do have Mondays and Fridays off. So I’m flexible on those days and then weekend, if I have advance notice. Leave detailed instructions for me so that I can keep your dog/house safe and sound :) The more details the better so I can ensure your happiness with my service.

Extraordinarily personable, accepting and supportive of our hyper and high octane pup. By the time the four visits had passed Elaine succeeded in gaining our pups trust. In only took one visit for us. We have our future #1 choice for all care moving forward in Elaine.
Lacee is much more than a dog walker, she actually cares and observes Meeko’s behavior and reports her concerns. Meeko looks forward to their walks and is always super-excited to see her, I look forward to him getting rid of his energy so I can get work done, and we BOTH highly recommend Lacee!
Adrienne was great with our dogs and our dogs really enjoyed her walking them. Our dogs can be intimidating but she was very comfortable and they responded to her well. She was professional and timely. We would highly recommend her and will be using her again. Thank you
