Sheri was wonderful! Due to circumstances beyond our control we needed an overnight pet sitter for our two dogs with just a week's notice. Sheri not only found the time to come over for a meet-and-greet but was able to cover the two-night stay at our house. She followed instructions, including medications for our aging dog, sent snapshots throughout and left the house clean and the dogs happy. Can't ask for anything more than that! Thank you, Sheri!

Karlyn is the answer to our prayers! Seriously! We have a giant breed, a large breed and a stubborn English bulldog who is thinks he’s in charge. Karlyn clearly loves each one of them and it shows in the videos and pics she sends. Having peace of mind leaving our furry family behind is no longer a stressor for my family. Thank you Karlyn!!

Jesse was a pleasure to have here in my home with my critters, she walked them several times a day and sent me pictures of them. She cleaned house and even changed the sheets, she went way out of her way to make sure everything looked good for when I got home. This was my first time to have a house sitter and I will again. Pleasant experience!!

About: Lifelong pet owner and animal lover with years of animal care experience. I provide safe, nurturing care for dogs and cats. Friendly and trustworthy, putting pets and their people at ease with reliable, conscientious care.I have taken care of my own K9 companions for over 10+ years and started at a young age helping to take care of all of the furry friends we welcomed in to our home growing up. Key Skills: Pet Sitting and Dog Walking Basic Grooming Litterbox and Habitat Cleaning Dog Walking and Play Mealtimes and Water Medication Administration Overnight and Vacation Services Pet and People Safety Pet Taxi Services * I can provide in-home pet sitting and pet care services, including workday check-ins and feedings, litterbox, cage, and kennel cleaning, overnight care, and long-term vacation care * Demonstrate adaptability and flexibility, providing care catered to meet both the animal and clients needs * Put pet parents’ minds at ease, treating homes with respect, sending text, photo, and video updates, and providing post-care follow-ups with notes on behaviors, moods,, activities, and more * Keep pet well-being front-of-mind by planning engaging, appropriate activities and play sessions that stretch the bodies and minds of dogs and cats I currently work Part Time as a Dog Groomer. In my free time, I love to surround myself with animals and help to care for them. I can do daily drop ins and check ups, dog walking, playtime, potty time, etc. Overnights at your residence is also a possibility with the proper notice and arrangements. I have a fenced backyard to keep my dogs safe and secure on my property. They are also kennel trained if necessary. I also keep a schedule for my dogs so they get set into a routine. This is key in their overall health and happiness. Trust and dependability in pet sitting are more than just clichés; they are the industry's lifeblood. Pet owners rely on sitters to look after their pets as if they were their own. First and foremost, trust is required for pet owners who leave their cherished animals to the care of others. I am a confident pet sitter that will put their pet's well-being and safety first. Furthermore, dependability is essential when selecting a pet sitter. Pet owners want someone they can rely on to arrive on time and do their duties.

About: I love animals and I love exercise, so here I am combining the two. I’m excited to try something new and also help out within my community by providing a healthy and heartwarming service I work Mon through Fri 7A-330P in construction. Some weeks I will have OT and will have to reschedule/ adjust my schedule here but other than that I’m pretty flexible. I prefer waking up early to being out late- but can and will accommodate. My pets are spoiled rotten. Constant truck rides and walks, and you can always find a ball or toy that belongs to the girls(dogs). And endless twig sticks and cardboard boxes inside with some windows equipped with bird feeders for the boys(cats). The girls have all day everyday access to fenced backyard and climate controlled garage included with the best neighbors and then to the comfy couch at night. The boys indulge in a cool environment while not moving much from one spot of the couch. Extras include opened curtain scenic views along with nature noises from the tv.

Donna did a great job staying in our home & caring for our pup & cat over Thanksgiving! She was communicative, sent photos & updates every day. She also asked before she took our pup anywhere to clear the location with us, which was much appreciated. (We have a very friendly, social dog who loves people & other animals so we were happy she got more socialization while were gone.) She also followed the long routine for each animal, and was a total trooper when our garage opener inconveniently died. she left our house in great shape & even stripped the bed. Will definitely use her services again!

About: We have taken care of all kinds of animals for as long as we can remember. We recently raised a litter of 9 Australian Sheppards in my home. We also have a lot of experience with cats! We are reliable and caring people. True animal lovers. Everyone that knows us knows that we spoil our dogs and treat them like family (probably even better). I am a CNA of 3 years and currently in nursing school. My boyfriend, Skyler, (who grew up on a farm) will also help care for your fur baby. We do not have a fenced yard but we have a long dog run that runs from one end of my yard to the other. We live in the country on 1.5 acres. We would love to take your dog on a walk and explore the woods behind my house! We have two friendly dogs (they love cats too) that will be your animal’s new best friend! We will treat your dogs like they are apart of our family. No crates or cages unless told to. We have several comfy couches and beds for your dogs to take naps on. They will love their stay with us!

Amazing. Robert went above and beyond! Not only did he take care of our house while we were away, being careful with packages and mail, but our fur babies were completely at peace with him. Usually they don't eat regularly and our kitty hides but they loved him so much and opened up for cuddles and play. Absolutely loved his personality too. He was so fun and easy going.

About: Hello! I am very passionate about dogs and will provide loving, patient care while you are away from home. I have fostered many puppies and adult dogs in my home through a dog rescue in California for 5 years, and continue to do the online work for that rescue from my home in Illinois. I have two fur babies of my own Espresso and Lucy, and our two cats mostly hang out in whatever room the dogs are not in :) We have a secure, fenced backyard with room to run. Dog cuddling and treats are a staple here, as well as walks, frequent potty breaks and playing with toys! My six year old daughter loves dogs but also respects boundaries and will leave them alone if they don’t want attention. I am prompt, professional and respond to texts/calls in a timely manner. Please contact me if you have any questions! I am a stay at home mom attending school online, so frequent potty breaks, cuddles and playtime are constantly available to them, or whatever else they might need. I have a fenced in yard and ample room to get the zoomies out. Dogs are welcome on the couch and I have a few dog beds available too.

About: Hello! I am very passionate about dogs and will provide loving, patient care while you are away from home. I have fostered many puppies and adult dogs in my home through a dog rescue in California for 5 years, and continue to do the online work for that rescue from my home in Illinois. I have two fur babies of my own Espresso and Lucy, and our two cats mostly hang out in whatever room the dogs are not in :) We have a secure, fenced backyard with room to run. Dog cuddling and treats are a staple here, as well as walks, frequent potty breaks and playing with toys! My six year old daughter loves dogs but also respects boundaries and will leave them alone if they don’t want attention. I am prompt, professional and respond to texts/calls in a timely manner. Please contact me if you have any questions! I am a stay at home mom attending school online, so frequent potty breaks, cuddles and playtime are constantly available to them, or whatever else they might need. I have a fenced in yard and ample room to get the zoomies out. Dogs are welcome on the couch and I have a few dog beds available too.

Michael was nothing short of amazing! He has such a love for pets, he’s very conscientious, flexible and communicates so well. I can’t recommend Michael highly enough. I will not use another Rover unless Michel’s booked.
