“I’m an RN with a sometimes unpredictable schedule, and today Jaimie was so understanding about a last-minute change. I’m incredibly thankful for her flexibility and the loving care she provides. Jojo always enjoys her time with Jaimie, Ollie, and Milo—it’s like a little playdate every visit! Highly recommend Jaimie!”

I provide care for your fur baby as if they were my own, and ensure that they receive the highest quality care while you're away. I am always prepared for any pet's needs and ensure that your pet will receive the best care and love. Their happiness and care is my priority and I strive to provide a service that I would want my own pets to receive. Specialty with working with Senior pets(blind, deaf, and health conditions). Professional and Certified Groomer that can offer grooming services as well! Check out our website for more information! We hope to see you real SoOon! Currently self-employed running my grooming business. I have plenty of time to walk, board, and check up on pets at anytime. I am very flexible.

“Laraine is fantastic! You can’t go wrong! We had a meet and greet where my dog meet some of the other dogs he would be staying with, and we thoroughly went over his routine and anything/everything else she needed to know about him. I would highly recommend Laraine to anyone to watch their beloved pets.”


“Kim is the best! She is thoughtful , friendly , responsible and responsive. She has all the qualities desired for someone watching youe little one. Thank you Kim for taking care of Brownie! We are so happy to find you.”


“Julissa was great! She was warm and welcoming she had 3 other dogs at her place, and I’m pretty sure Brownie had a great evening! I would definitely use her again if I was in the area!”


About: I have 11 year old 6 pound Maltese girl that had a separation anxiety. So i completely understand how nerve breaking it could be to leave your fur babies at home unattended. I have gone fully remote for my work so i can stay home with my fur baby! I thought i'd offer my help to the fellow fur parents whose pets may also be suffering from separation anxiety. Mimi loves to sleep throughout the day so she'd love a cuddle buddy! Mimi has 4 potty breaks throughout the day. In the morning, at 12pm and another around 5pm and before sleep. If your puppy needs more frequent potty breaks I can certainly accomodate! I will do minimum or 2 walks (@12pm and 5pm) and my house shares a fence with county park! Leash is strictly enforced, so please bring me your leash! I have more than 8 dog beds throughout the house. Basically each room has a dog bed as Mimi follows me around everywhere. Your fur baby's welcome to use the dog beds or couch! It's wooden floor throughout and we have a bell on the patio door so if your fur baby wants to go potty, he/she can simply ring the bell!

“I really liked how promptly Radwa responded. She was so professional. I liked that she made sure to communicate with me regarding every important detail. She was very sweet. It was a great experience for Winnie as well. I could tell he felt safe and comfortable with her. I will certainly book her again”


About: I love how each individual pet has their own personality. I know how much pets mean to each family and I know I am capable of caring them like their own pawrents. I currently work as a full timer hybrid schedule. I do go to office on Thursdays but that’s about it. I can be there for pets any other day including weekends! I have a fenced in backyard and I do have my own pet. She’s a senior pupper who’s 15 but she’s thriving and acts like a puppy still. Fenced in back yard is huge for us because she can roam freely as she pleases and will allow for other pets to safely roam in between walk breaks!

“Left my dog Leo with Doug ! Received constant updates, ensuring peace of mind. Loved that he took my dog for walks regularly. Communication was easy and flexible, making the entire experience seamless. Highly recommend!”


“Thank you so much for taking care of our dogs on our most important wedding day. The dogs are so happy after the day care. Great host and tons of places for dogs to play around.”


“Megan is AMAZING, I feel so lucky that we found her. Not only is she incredible with my pup, she’s the nicest person too! I feel completely at ease with her watching my fur baby. She sends pics, and you can just feel her love of animals. Thank you so much Megan!”


About: New to Rover? Use this link to get $20 off: https://www.rover.com/sit/virinj45018 I’ve cared for a wide variety of pets, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and rabbits. I tailor my care to each animal’s unique needs and personality. I’ve raised and trained my family dog since he was a puppy, and continue to teach him new tricks and enrichment activities (he’s even started using speech buttons!). I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether it’s a short walk to let them sniff and explore, or a full day of cuddles, play, and mental stimulation with treat puzzles and training games. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly apartment complex with lots of walking space and greenery. I also make sure to create a calm, enriching environment for smaller pets who prefer cozy indoor time. To ensure every pet gets my full attention and care, I only host one pet at a time. Your companion will be treated like family, with plenty of love, patience, and personalized care. I work from home with a flexible schedule. I visit family on select weekends, but apart from that, I am available as needed. I enjoy taking daily walks-- especially with a curious companion! And I enjoy winding down the day with some thoughtful games and cozy TV-watching. I’m very leash- and open-door-conscious (my family dog trained me well by being a curious escape artist!). Whether your pet is a runner or a cuddler, I always prioritize safety and awareness. I live in a pet-free, child-free home, so there’s nothing lying around that might be a hazard or too tempting for curious noses (or paws). There’s plenty of space to set up your pet’s belongings so they feel connected to their usual routine. The apartment is bright, airy, and has a minimalist-style decor, making it calm, clean, and comfortable for animals of all sizes. For pets who enjoy lounging, there’s lots of sunlight and soft spots. In the warmer months, the A/C keeps the space cool and comfy. There’s also a secure balcony with a view of the neighborhood which is perfect for safe sniffing and squirrel watching!

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, bunnies (especially Holland Lops!), and even small rodents like hamsters and guinea pigs. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and your pet will be treated just like one of the family while they’re with me. I have a fully fenced-in yard and a cozy home filled with love—and four wonderful, respectful kids who are just as excited to welcome your furry friend as I am. We believe in gentle hands, lots of attention, and keeping routines as close to home as possible. I also have: • A well-behaved, fixed dog with a calm temperament who gets along well with others • An extra crate and room to accommodate different needs • A work-from-home schedule, so I’m home most of the day for supervision, cuddles, and potty breaks • A love for long neighborhood walks—perfect for active pups who enjoy fresh air and exercise Whether your pet needs space to play, snuggles on the couch, or just someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’m here to provide a safe, loving environment. Multiple level home so I can keep animals separate if needed. I’d love to meet your pet and answer any questions you have. Let’s chat and see if we’re a good fit! I work remotely, so I’m home all day long! Evenings may be busy with ubering my kids around, but your babies will be kept in a safe and clean environment if I’m gone for a short time. I have a fenced in yard, for the dogs to play. My kids are well versed in pet safety, regarding doors and gates. And I have two separate areas of the house your babies are free to roam that are away from outside access doors.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for family, neighbors and friends for 16+ years. Always knew they were special. I’m the happiest around my furry friends. Started when i was about 10 years young when my neighbor would ask me to walk her puppy, buddy but would give specific instructions such as how far i could walk him which was just around the corner and back home. Since then I’ve been dog-sitting here and there. Now, working remotely I’ve decided it’s time to get started again. I work remote, I’m always home. My little bear and i go on a morning walks everyday at 11/1130. And in the evening. Sometimes if it’s a rainy day i drive him over by petsmart where it’s an enclosed area. Have breaks in between calls where we can enjoy playtime. I’m very careful when it comes to dropping food on the floor if i do it gets picked up within seconds my little guy is always ready to vacuum the floor, i’m always cautious. I don’t leave food out in the open. Always provide fresh water. Bottled water that is unless they prefer tap. Make sure they get the exercise they need. I love having little training sessions. It’s good for their little brains. Will follow feeding instructions. Will spend time with the dog. Give them space as well by allowing them to sniff around before anything. Being aware of their needs.

“She took such great care of Jack and although he missed us, he was very well taken care of! Thank you again for helping us out on such short notice!”


Maribel E.
“I don’t trust many people with watching my babies, but Bella is one of few that I do trust whole-heartedly. She has taken care of our dog, Roman several of times and always sends photo updates throughout the night with how much he’s being spoiled. She’s also checked in on our cat, Chloe multiple times and make sure her food and water bowl are good to go. She even goes the extra mile and spends time with her to make sure she eats and gets a little comfort from a familiar adult. The way she cares for her fur baby, speaks volumes as to the kind of fur mama that she is! I promise she will spoil your baby more than you could imagine and they’d be in great care!”
