About: We are a married couple that both have experience in caring for animals for both of our entire lives. We deeply understand how much trust is involved when someone else is looking after your pets. I (Alexa) have grown up with furry companions and have always had a deep love for animals, especially dogs. Connor has also spent his life caring for pets and understands the responsibility and attention every animal needs. Between us, we have experience caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities, including high energy dogs, large and small breeds, senior pets, and animals who need various medications. We have cared for pets belonging to friends, family, and neighbors, along with our own animals! Alexa has also volunteered at local animal shelters and has had the pleasure of listening to Lee Asher speak in person. We are currently proud pet parents to a small dog, a large dog, a mischievous cat, and a senior kitty, so we know firsthand that every pet has their own routine, quirks, and needs. Whether your pet needs exercise, enrichment, medication, patience, or simply some extra love while you’re away, we will treat them like they are our own. Your pets are in great hands with us! I (Alexa) currently work as an EMT, which means I work only 7-8 days per month. That leaves plenty of time to go wherever duty calls! Connor gets his work schedule week by week, but normally has two days off (although they might change weekly). We would be more than happy to house & pet sit for you, provide walks, and do daily check-ins as well! In a clients home, we will respect your space and go places that are only necessary to your pets care & safety. We make sure to always clean before we go, and believe in leaving spaces exactly as you’ve left them for us. You can count on us to make sure your furry friend has all that they need while you are gone, in the safety and security of your own home.

Met Elizabeth for a meet and greet for more frequent walks while I’m at work. She was super punctual and sweet with my little Koda. She asked a lot of questions to make sure she could provide Koda with the best walk possible. I look forward to working more with her!

About: I have owned or cared for dogs my entire life, with the occasional rodent or scaled creature thrown in. Hopefully not at the same time. I’m comfortable with basic wound cleaning as well as administering medication. After a period working in a pet store I’m also more skilled in ear cleaning, breathing treatments, and temperature taking than I’d care to be. Work situation changed so I’m more open to daytime walks and drop ins. I also keep a weird sleep schedule so if you need a late night drop in or walk, hit me up. Update: I did recently get a dog. He’s a young doodle and prefers to chew on my hair and hands more than toys, but gets along well with other dogs. He sure everyone wants to be his friend. He is young, potty trained and a great playmate. So right now the only way I’m able to sit is if your dog would like new bestie. I am unable to care for pets in my home. I live with my niece and her cat can be a little…stabby, for lack of a better word. In your home, I’ll be following your lead. I do tend to go outside with dogs at night, even with fenced yards. I am always wary of bobcats and coyotes looking for water and snacks. I’m also perfectly comfortable with a pile of animals sleeping in bed with me so if that’s what your animals prefer, I’m here for it.

About: I've had dogs around my entire life, caring for pups is in my nature! since i do not currently have a furry friend of my own, I am able to provide my full love an attention to the dogs I sit for. I love high energy and active dogs to go on runs and rough house with, as well as chilling watching tv with my older or more cuddly type companions. I love dogs that challenge me, and help me learn in ways that only this species can provide! I currently work from home, so i love having company around. It is a wonderful balance that keeps me fulfilled while also able to remain pet free of my own, so I'm able to travel and move easily. While my availability is open, I am present for your pup 24/7. To go on walks any time of day, feed at consistent hours every day, and for any level of stimulating play time when needed. Wherever doggy is, i am! I am completely independent of a partner, children and animals, so I'm very flexible of the services I provide. I have a yard as well as a very walkable neighborhood with lots of parks around me. I am adaptable to many different kinds of behavior styles as well.

About: I have extensive experience with sitting and walking different types of dogs. I have one pup at home and have grown up with dogs (and cats). I’m currently working part-time while on summer break from WWU. Meaning I’ll have plenty of time to spend playing, petting, or walking with your pups :) I can’t host dogs at the moment, because of renovations. But am more than happy to travel to petsit and can accommodate any requests or health issues your pup may have.

Megan has been regularly walking my dog, Mack, for a few months now. I was anxious at the beginning to have someone take care of my dog when I wasn’t there (because while I think he’s amazing, he’s also a little quirky lol), but it’s been such a relief working with her. She has such a kind and calming energy, and it’s clear that my pup loves spending time with her! If you’re looking for a dog walker, I can’t recommend Megan enough.

We love Jenna! I am new to the area and my regular dog walker went away for a month but luckily I found Jenna on Rover. She obviously really cares about animals and really takes good care of my 2 fur babies, not just walks but also great feedback on their behavior and mood and poo quality and such, which is really helpful for a busy single Pet Parent. And they clearly love her! Jenna is now part of our "pack" we book her regularly.

About: I have been doing Rover for about 4 years with my mom and have pet care experience from jobs as well! I have a senior dog and 6 cats, so I have many years cleaning lots of litter boxes, messes, hair balls, and keeping spaces clean behind my belt. I can help with mobility issues and can administer medications (oral and injectable). My dog is high anxiety and requires medication daily for that, so I’m also used to working around triggers and to establish trust with pets. I am very caring and patient and sending owners silly photos is one of my favorite things! I work a part-time job so my availability varies. I don’t work many hours so I still have lots of time to spend with your pets! My cats are indoor only so I know how to navigate escape artists and closing doors real fast. I have experience walking large dogs from previous Rovers and jobs. I am a great communicator and you will always know what is going on and receive updates and photos. I can bring in mail, take out garbage, take care of chickens, ducks, rabbits and other pets not listed on Rover! I always recommend a meet and greet as well to make sure everyone feels comfortable and stress free!

Ethan took amazing care of our huge moose of a dog, LeeLou (the bloodhound). We had been so worried about finding somebody to handle her, but he set our minds completely at ease with his extensive updates. He made it possible for us to relax an enjoy our time away from home, and LeeLou had a wonderful time. I will definitely book Ethan again, and recommend him highly! =D

Van is my dogs favorite person!! They have put in the time and effort to get to know his personality and make him feel special and cared for. He can be difficult at times and Van has been excellent at communicating and working through those moments with us. Not to mention the best dog photographer in town! 10/10 recommend booking Savannah to care for your pet

Chris was great! He was super prompt in responding, ready next day to walk Kain and did very well with him. Being that Kain is 180lbs it can be intimidating but Chris really made himself feel like they had been buddies for years. They went on a long 3 mile walk/jog so Kain was plenty tired! We will certainly use Chris' service again and would highly recommend!

James was super friendly and my dog absolutely loved him. He definitely has a way with pets. I booked a dog walk with James and he went above and beyond in addition to walking him, he played fetch with him and brushed his hair as well making it much more enjoyable to pet him afterwards (his hair was nappy beforehand). We had one very happy and well behaved dog after the time James spent with him. I highly recommend James for any pet care!
