About: My family has 3 dogs and I adore them. I absolutely love animals and I believe every pet deserves love and attention. I am a broke college student saving for my future! I hope to use my love for animals to help me financially:) I am a college student so I have a pretty wild schedule. Im free most mornings and afternoons depending on my schedule for my other job. I try to be as flexible as I can! I have 3 dogs at home! I help take them outside 3 times a day considering I do not have a fence currently. I love taking them on walks. My two younger dogs are super energetic so I love playing with them to get their energy out! I love meeting new animals:)
“This was our first time using a service like. We had Sarah check on our kitties while we were on vacation. She was great! She sent us updates and pictures each visit telling us how kitties were doing and eating. I know we will be using her again in the future. Thanks so much Sarah!”

About: I have been pet sitting for 5+ years with over 15 separate families I care for as needed. Im all about giving you peace of mind when you need to leave your pets no matter what! Any animals big or small, I can care for them all! I am a full time dog walker and pet sitter so my schedule is 100% free and open to taking care of your pet’s needs! I have 2 cats at my house that I care for daily and I have grown up owning many pets. I prefer to stay at your home with your pets to make their time away from you as comfortable as possible. I know pets can have anxiety especially when they are left with strangers for the first time so I’m careful to stay close to routine and not overstep in your pets home. I care about your pets care and treat every pet as our own.
About: I have a lot of experience taking care of dogs from giant breeds to small breeds. I have taken obedience courses with each of my dogs. I can provide medication administration, potty training experience, and crate training experience. I can be accommodating to most needs. I work full-time but have flexibility throughout my day. I can do check ins over lunch time and evenings. I am also available most weekends. I have a small dog and I am home working most of the day, so he is out with me while I work. We play and go on walks during breaks. He is crate trained and potty trained. He is fed twice a day and we make sure he goes in regularly for nail trimmings. He loves baths and being outside mostly.
“Danette took great care of my cat while I was out of town for a few days over 4th of July weekend! He was well fed and well loved, and I could tell he was very content despite my being away. I would definitely recommend her, and will look to her again if I need care for him in the future.”
“A random 4 am dog walk early on a Saturday morning in August? No problem for Rover superstar Alejandra. She bailed me out with Kelce with this unique request. Highly recommend this young lady!”
“This is the first time I used a dog sitter and Rover. Sheila was reliable and trustworthy. I went on vacation and needed my dog to be checked three times a day to be walked and fed. She took good care of my dog. She was kind and made sure her well being was taken care of. Her communication is good and she would give me updates as well. I highly recommend her.”
About: Ive owned one or more dogs since I was a kid. Ive participated in a variety of dog training from classes at PetSmart to Nebraska Dog Training. Working from home, there will be limited times pets will be left unsupervised while in my care. I am Working from home full time which makes me available for frequent potty breaks. This also allows for several opportunities for social interaction throughout the day. I have 5 acres of land. Not fenced available, but outside time on a leash can be offered to ensure safety. I have two dogs to provide company. An 8 yr old female and 9 month male puppy.
About: My passion for animals and love towards animals. I currently have 3 dogs two huskies and one lab mix. I’m super excited to start dog sitting because being with animals is my happy place! Please reach out if you need somewhere for your dog to stay while away or I can even come to you!! With my 3 dogs I have a daily routine. We wake up at 8am and they go outside and run around the fence while I get their first meal ready. They eat and then get kennel for 30 minutes to let food settle before playing again. They then have the whole day to play and do as they want along with an hour walk. We typically play fetch for at least an hour a day and then they get their second meal. I constantly make sure my dogs are happy and have something to do. Weather it be playing with toys or enrichment toys to get their energy and brain going. They get brushed daily, teeth brushed and walks. My dogs are my everything as I don’t have kids.

Samantha W.
“I’ve always believed that the way someone treats animals says everything about their heart—and if that’s true, then my wife has the most compassionate, patient, and loving heart in the world. Watching her care for our pets is like witnessing a quiet kind of magic. She doesn’t just feed or walk them—she understands them. Whether it’s calming a nervous dog, entertaining a high-energy pup, or gently nursing a sick pet back to health, she does it all with an intuitive grace and unwavering dedication. Our animals trust her completely, and honestly, so do I. She’s their protector, their best friend, and their biggest fan. Thanks to her, our home is a place where animals feel safe, happy, and truly loved. I couldn’t imagine a better caretaker for any pet.”
