Ciara has been walking Harley for about 10 weeks now (and has dog sat once) while I'm on contract and has been fabulous. I appreciate all she's done!

Tara is wonderful! She has been weekly walking our giant goof of a dog, Jolene, for almost an entire year. Tara provides great updates, photos and always gives Jolene extra belly rubs.

Liz was excellent with Sophie. She took multiple pictures, was flexible, and gave relevant information in her notes. She was by far my favorite Rover person and I would strongly recommend her. My Sophie really like her a lot!

Eleanor is a staple of my Zeke dog’s care team. She has been walking him every week for over a year (and clearly demonstrates patience with me). Eleanor is dedicated, reliable, communicative and repeatedly steps up to help as her schedule allows. Eleanor provides invaluable care and I’m happy for those reading this to have found her!

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, so taking care of them truly feels second nature to me. I’m calm, and patient and I take the time to figure out what each dog needs to feel relaxed and happy. I treat every dog I watch like they’re mine, giving them the same care and attention I give my own. I can help puppies get settled and comfortable in a new environment, and I give senior dogs the extra care and love they need. I recently moved into a house with a secure yard, so dogs staying with me have access to a safe outdoor space. Pet care is already apart of my daily routine. I take care of my own dog by feeding her, taking her out for long walks, and giving her plenty of attention. I love spending time with animals and making sure they’re well cared for. I make sure every pet in my care feels safe and comfortable weather in my home or theirs. I pay attention to their personality and what they need and make a happy space for them while there owners are away.

About: Hello! I am studying in my masters program and looking for extra income to be. My partner lives in Texas with our Sharpei pitbull mix, Buster. I am missing him everyday I’m away. I have a cat of my own with me who is 10 and is named Bagheera. I am very fun and active and love the idea of taking your dog on long walks. I grew up with dog of various “big dog” breeds and I can handle puppies no matter how big or small they might be. I would love the opportunity to play with and care for any animal, and make sure they have everything they need! I’m a full-time student so my schedule is flexible and I’m available for boarding on the weekdays and weekends. Depending on my schedule, I may be out of the house for about four hours at a time, but frequently visit home. Before starting grad school, I was a full-time nanny for 10 years so I have lots of care experience and know the depths of which people love their pets. Being a nanny has helped me react quickly in emergency situations and has helped me expand my horizon of dog care as well!

I’m detail-oriented, communicative, and committed to providing dependable, high-quality care. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being always come first. I’d love to meet you and your furry family member and become your trusted sitter! Pet care is a central part of my daily routine, not something I squeeze in between other commitments.

On a typical day, dogs in my care receive: 🐾 Regular potty breaks and outdoor time 🐾 Morning and evening walks (as needed) 🐾 Supervised playtime and enrichment 🐾 Feeding based on their normal routine 🐾 Quiet rest time and comfort breaks 🐾 One-on-one attention throughout the day I plan my days to be flexible so I can adjust to each dog’s needs, whether that means extra walks, medication schedules, senior care, or additional cuddle time.

Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities.

About: I have been caring for animals since I was 12 years old and have experience with a wide variety of pets. From raising and training two puppies alongside my sister when I was younger, to caring for horses, cats (both indoor and outdoor), a ferret, a turtle, and even nurturing a wild rabbit from infancy — animals have always been a meaningful part of my life. I’m a true animal lover and take pride in providing attentive, compassionate care. I am comfortable administering medications when needed and understand how important it is to follow routines and instructions closely. When your pets are with me, you can expect regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel confident they are safe, happy, and well cared for. I currently work part-time (typically 2–3 days per week), which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be readily available for pet care. Feel free to message me about availability — I’m happy to work with your needs whenever possible. My home environment is safe, clean, and pet-friendly, with no accessible hazards or toxic items. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing them with patience, affection, and dependable care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work part-time, typically 2–3 days per week, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule and dedicate quality time and attention to the pets in my care. I plan my day around their needs — including feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship — to ensure they feel comfortable and well cared for. Because I have availability throughout the week, I’m able to accommodate a variety of care types and adjust my routine as needed to match each pet’s schedule. Providing attentive, reliable care is something I take seriously, and I make sure pets are never treated as an afterthought but as an important part of my day. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and trusting environment for every pet in my care, whether they are staying in my home or I am caring for them in theirs. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding routines, feeding schedules, exercise, and behavioral expectations to ensure consistency and comfort for the pet. In my home, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space free of accessible hazards or toxic materials. Pets are welcome on furniture as part of a relaxed and loving environment; however, if they are currently being trained not to use furniture, I will fully respect and continue reinforcing that training while they are in my care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with respect and maintain the pet’s established routine to minimize stress. I focus on attentive supervision, safe handling, and plenty of affection and engagement so pets feel secure and comfortable. Building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me, and I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and videos for peace of mind throughout the stay.

About: I have had fur babies all my life. From puppy stage to senior care. They are truly part of the family. I look forwards to loving on yours I have the please of working from home, fitting your pet into my daily routine would be identical to how I am able to send time with my own. I have a huge fenced in yard. I have one fur baby he is a bernedoodle who is turning two at the end of this year. He gets along great with other dogs and enjoys the company. So I am able to provide each pet with the love they need I have very limited space on how many dogs I will keep at once. If your pet enjoys walks, we will go on walks, enjoy fetch in the backyard, we will play fetch in the back yard. Your pet is part of my family once you guys enter my home. I do have children who love to run around with animals also.

About: I've been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember! Ever since I was a child, I've had a very strong connection with the furry friends around me! I always take the extra time to learn as much as I can about a pet's habits, likes/dislikes, etc. It's my personal goal to make the world a better place for every person (and pet) around me :) My schedule is currently wide open, so I can work with almost any time frame that works for you! I am looking to make animal care my full time career! At my own home, I have a fenced-in yard and a very loving and playful canine companion who is always ready to meet new friends! I have a wealth of experience when it comes to helping animals feel safe and secure.

About: I'm a freelance artist and mostly work from my laptop, which allows me to hang out with your pet(s) pretty much the entire time. We'll cuddle, and go on walks, and play outside, and I'll give them lots of loving pets. I will also send you frequent photos of them, since I know how stressful it can be to leave them in someone else's care. For me, dog sitting is more than just making some extra money...it's therapy. I am unable to have a dog of my own at this time so I am looking for some dog friends who will help to fill that void. I have yet to meet a dog I didn't like (even the crazy ones), so I'm sure your pet and I will get along swimmingly. I mostly work from home so I will be with your dog most, if not all of the time. I especially love longer stays, but open to just about any length of time. Lots of pets and cuddles! I love taking them on walks, or just hanging out in my fenced backyard. I live near Iroquois park, so that’s also a favorite activity.
