About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, and many other kinds of animals ever since I was about 8 years old. I grew up with many animals in my household and I couldn't imagine it any other way as animals are such a big part of my life. I love going on walks and being outside, just like most dogs do too! Also, I have taken care of dogs of all ages including puppies and senior pets. I currently do not have a job so I am free for booking any day! I also do not have any preferences for time as I am willing to make whatever times work for you! There's many things I do to take care of a pet. I would make sure the pet is fed (and a treat here and there of course). I would also spend time giving the pet tons of attention. This can include playing with toys, walking them, or even just petting and sitting with them. I'd also make sure the pet is taken outside as often as the owner would like.
About: Hi there! My name is Jo, and I bring years of hands-on animal care experience to every pet sitting job I take on. I’ve worked as a veterinary technician and also spent time as a zoo employee, so I’m no stranger to animals of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments! Whether your pet needs special medical care, a calming presence while you're away, or just lots of love and play, I provide responsible, knowledgeable, and compassionate care tailored to their needs. I’m comfortable administering medications, handling senior pets, and caring for exotic or less common animals as well. Animals have always been at the heart of my work and my passion. When you trust me with your pet, you can feel confident they’re in capable and caring hands. I’d love to meet you and your furry (or scaly or feathered!) family member! I'm free after 4:00pm on the weekdays and anytime on weekends. I take care of my own furbabies, so I am already in the routine of caring for animals. I have three furbabies myself, so I'm well-versed in the different personalities each animal can have. I don't provide a one-size-fits-all approach to caring for animals - I tailor my care to the specific needs of each pet.
“Great care for Maya and my house while I was away.”
“This is my first time using Rover.com and finding Stephanie. She came every day sent me pictures kept me updated and did a fantastic job with my two cats Taz and Abby. She was always on time and if she had a prior appointment and was going to be a little late she always let me know before hand so that I wouldn’t worry if she was going to show up or not but that was never a problem she was always there every single day that I booked her for. I will definitely use Stephanie in the future and if you want to caring person for your fur babies, definitely contact Stephanie.”
About: Worked at petsmart for 2 years in college in pet care. Learned to care for cats, dogs, reptiles and horses at a young age. Have owned cats, dogs and reptiles. Knowledge of medications and how to administer. I work from home and my hours are flexible, am able to provide pet care that is round the clock, Monday through Friday and on weekends.

About: Hi! I have been an animal lover and owner all my life. Growing up, I rode horses and my family had numerous dogs (puppies), cats (kittens), goats, hamsters, amphibians and birds! As an adult, I lived on a farm for 11 years and helped with a herd of goats, rabbits and mules. I am entertained by chickens and have raised multiple flocks of them and ducks too. I've also had great opportunity to travel doing house and pet sitting experiences along the way. I am an active person and I enjoy ensuring animals have the proper space and time to exercise in all seasons. It is my priority to treat animals with respect and kindness, allowing trust to develop. It is so interesting to make new fur-friends and learn each of their individual personalities. I am currently working only a small amount of hours each week, so my availability is quite open. I also have the flexibility to come to your house. I currently live with my parents and their two super friendly Boston terriers. We have a fenced yard and plenty of space for nice walks. If I am in your home, I am very adaptable and will follow your instructions for what is best for your pets.
About: I absolutely love going on super long walks with pets. Spending time outdoors with them is the best! Also, I really really adore cats a lot! I have a super flexible summer schedule and would love to fill my time caring for some cute, friendly little ones, and big ones! Excited to help out! I take my dogs on daily walks, bathe them as needed, and clean after them when little accidents happen. I love love love to hang out with them!
About: I have experience with both cats and dogs from every age and condition. I have experience with fostering puppies and kittens. I have cared for animals that required medication administration and other special needs. I’m currently working a few days a week and so I will have availability to care for your pet(s). I currently have two dogs so pet care is done daily and someone is usually always home. Your pets will be treated like my own and given lots of love while you’re away. I am able to keep your pet(s) separate from my own if requested. I will keep you updated through text and pictures about your pet so that you can have peace of mind while traveling.
“Shane did an amazing job taking care of our two cats. If you ever need someone to take care of your fur babies, Shane is great!”
About: I have four of my own pups at home, they rage from an Australian Shepard, great-dane boxer mix, and a pitt bull black lab mix, to a pug! I also own livestock and small farm animals so i’m great in any situation! I have recently graduated so I am available early mornings also! I work part time so I am available almost daily! I’m able to come last minute so there’s no stress about wether or not your pup will be safe and cared for! If you’re trying out a new routine or sticking to the one you know works for your pup(s) I will follow any schedule from morning till night! I know how important it is for me to have things going to plan in order to be stress free and I want you to have the stress free time you deserve while I care for your animals your way!
