About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience working in animal shelters, dog daycare centers, and boarding facilities. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality and needs. After recently losing my beloved dogs, I realized I wasn't quite ready for another long-term commitment, but I deeply missed having dogs around. Rover has given me the perfect opportunity to open my home and heart to dogs while helping other pet parents feel confident their pets are in good hands. I'm a stay-at-home mom, which means your dog will have plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. We have a large fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and exercise. I also have two cats who grew up with dogs and are comfortable sharing their space, as well as two young children who have been around dogs their entire lives and know how to interact respectfully with them. For the comfort and safety of every pet in my care, I only accept dogs from one household at a time. This allows me to provide individualized attention and create a calm, stress-free environment during their stay. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I will care for your dog as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. My mornings typically begin with feeding pets, potty breaks, walks, or playtime before my family's daily activities start. Because I am home most of the day, pets receive frequent attention, supervision, and companionship rather than being left alone for long periods. Throughout the day, I can accommodate additional potty breaks, outdoor time in our fenced yard, feeding schedules, medication administration if needed, and plenty of affection and enrichment. In the evenings, pets are included in our family's relaxed routine, with more playtime, walks, and cuddles before bedtime. For boarding and daycare, dogs are rarely left unattended, and I only accept pets from one household at a time to ensure each pet receives personalized care and attention. I care for every pet as if they were my own, taking the time to learn their routine, preferences, and personality. I understand that being away from their family can be stressful, so I strive to provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and secure. For dogs, I provide regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection. Dogs have access to our large fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, and because I am home throughout the day, they receive consistent attention and companionship. I only care for dogs from one household at a time, which allows me to focus on their individual needs and maintain a low-stress environment. For cats, I ensure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and attention at their comfort level. Whether your cat enjoys playtime, cuddles, or simply having a quiet and reliable caretaker, I respect their personality and routine. I am also comfortable following special instructions, administering medications when needed, and providing regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

“Beth did great with our pups while we were away. I could tell they were comfortable with her right away. She was prompt with the check ins and played with them when she stopped by. She sent pictures and updates often! Would highly recommend :)”

“If I could leave 10+ stars out of 5; I would! Jordan was amazing and so reassuring! She noticed my dog’s eye was a little red and offered to bring meds for my dog… so thoughtful! To add to her awesomeness, she also was flexible with her schedule and was able to accommodate me when I requested to add another drop in day of. My dogs loved her… it was obvious during our meet and greet and on photos. Will certainly book again and recommend to others.”

“Felecia was so awesome! Resun and Roxy absolutely love her I can tell and are very comfortable with her. They even let her bathe them lol. We appreciate her patience during the 2 meet and greets as well for she did not have to do that. She took great care of our home EVEN washed their dog bowls out🫂☺️ We are grateful to know her and be able to travel freely now without worry. Thank you Felecia! See you again soon”

“I entrusted Jeanne with my dogs for five days, marking the first time I had left them alone at home. She performed dependable drop-in visits, maintained their feeding schedule, refreshed their water, and provided photo updates. She did an excellent job ensuring my picky eater was properly fed. I greatly valued her professionalism and would highly recommend her.”

“Zara was so sweet and took great care of my pack! This was my first time using rover and it was a lovely experience. I will definitely reach out to Zara again when we need someone to check on our pups!”

About: i’ve taken care of animals since I was a kid and have had lots of dogs that I absolutely adore. I love just being around animals and will always do my best to make them feel safe and comfortable I am currently a college student and I want a job where I have more flexibility. I have a lot of free time and to me would rather spend it with animals over other things. I am very good with lots of different dogs and am very attentive so in your home I will make sure to be respectful of their space and treat them with the upmost care.

“Emily is fantastic. She was great with communicating and sending pictures. She took special care with my two boy kitties. I highly recommend her.”

About: Ive been in the veterinary field for 10+ years and have plenty of experience with dogs and cats. Im comfortable with everything from basic care like feeding or walking, to oral/injectable medication administration I work full time monday-Thursday. I can do check-ins during my lunch break and have no problems staying the night. I have 2 cats of my own who get routine healthcare. My cats are water fountains that are filled daily along with automatic timers to be fed. While I dont personally have a dog right now, i’ve grown up with a variety of breeds from whippits to german shepherds. I’m well aware each pet needs different approaches to trust and care and am more than willing to work with your pet how ever it needs

“I’m the type of person who said I’d never be able to let a stranger watch my babies. I found myself in a position where I needed to break that rule and Hannah was so wonderful that I wasn’t stressed at all about leaving her with my pets. She and her daughter came over every day to play with, feed, and care for my babies. She was very communicative, innovative when any pets might not eat enough or seem too stressed, and knowledgeable. She was willing to try any ideas I had on how to help my pets cope, too (my dog especially is a very anxious boy). I truly believe that Hannah and her daughter loved my pets like I do and I couldn’t be happier with how their visits went. I cannot recommend Hannah enough.”

Julia S.

“Amy was wonderful with our older puppies while we were on vacation. She took extra care of any accidents and made sure they always had exercise and love. We always received updates every visit and you could tell our pups were so happy. Extremely happy and appreciative for her care for our fur babies.”
