About: I have pets at for many years. I also worked at a dog kennel so I'm used to all different shapes sizes and breeds. I enjoy training my own dog. I also worked on a farm so I have some farming knowledge as well. I enjoy being an active person and taking pets out. I want pet Care to be able to be my full-time completely integrated daily routine I take care of my own animals but I would like to be able to take care of other people's full time. I do however start my program of study sometime in August. In a client's home I would strive to keep the same schedule for the pets because I'm sure that they are already stressed out when their people leave. This being same food bathroom routine making sure they get playtime attention.

David was excellent. He gave my husky a great walk and left her worn out afterwards, which is saying a lot since she has a LOT of energy. Definitely recommend!

About: I’m Lawrence and I love dogs. Pet sitting is so rewarding! I also love that I have the freedom to work at home, while caring for animals. You’ll love that I’m able to spend the entire day with your dog so I can get to know their personality and individual needs. Customers remark say I have calming energy that animals feed off and creates a great environment for their care. I pay the utmost attention to the owner’s wishes and perspective as well as the dog themselves. I treat and respect every stay as a unique experience and hope to connect with you to create a respectful and symbiotic relationship. I live in a cozy home in Norwalk with Gabby. Our neighborhood is dog-friendly and perfect for walking. The streets are calm and you can rest assured your dog is in safe hands when walking around my neighborhood. We have a great park across the street from my house which, with your permission, I’d love to take your pup to. I have a range of experience with all sizes, breeds, and personalities of pups. I grew up with Shepherds and Labs but have spent time with many dogs. My fiancé Gabby will be there as well to provide extra cuddles. My clients have fallen in love with her natural ability and calmness. She’s a great partner and your pup will be lucky to have us both in their care. When I’m not spending time with pups (or when I am), I enjoy relaxing with Gabby, developing video games and skateboarding.

About: I've taken care of everything from snakes to guinea pigs to dogs to horses. Amphibians as well. I have worked in boarding for over 4 years, and I have been a vet assistant for one. I started off volunteering at the Charlotte Nature Museum when I was 15. I have interned at Carolina Raptor Center. I love all animals in any shape or size. I am also certified in Knowing Dogs 101 and 201, which covers recognizing individual and pack behavior. (ex. when your dog is in a doggy daycare and is playing with other pups.) I have two furbabies of my own, a guinea pig named Tatiana, and a spoiled rotten but adorable mutt named Sora. I promise hou that I will love your pets too! I have an open schedule for looking after your pet. I am more than happy to do morning and mid-day walks, visits, and feedings. I am unable to do late-night visits at this time. (After 8pm) I hold myself to a very high standard for looking after your pet. I will treat your pet and your home with the utmost respect. If they are on meds, then I will make sure that they get them on time and I can also give insulin if a pet is a diabetic.

About: After loosing our family dog, Sophie, who was 15, I decided to pursue pet care in place of getting another dog. I love the opportunity to provide excellent pet care and have met some wonderful families through Rover! I have a lot of availability to care for your pet. I am a patient person with a relaxed personality and will remain flexible to meet your family's needs for pet care. While I do not have a fenced in back yard, we live on a dead end road with no thru traffic. I provide walks 4-5 times a day and will make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, love and attention! We have older children who will play with your pet to keep them company, or can leave them alone if they prefer a more independent environment. We will treat your pets as we would our own! Our children are in school during the day, so I can give your pets a loving and relaxed environment with lots of exercise as I love to provide multiple walks daily! I am flexible to provide what each pet needs! We have plenty of room in our home for your pet to make itself at home!

About: I have over 4 years of experience working in veterinary medicine, including emergency care, which has given me strong knowledge in recognizing medical concerns, handling high stress situations, and safely administering medications. I’m comfortable caring for pets with special needs, including seniors and those requiring daily medications. In addition to my clinical experience, I’ve trained my own working line dog from 8 weeks old to adulthood, giving me hands on experience with puppy training, structure, and behavior management. I also currently have a young puppy, so I understand the patience and consistency needed for early training stages. This diverse background has made me confident handling animals of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. What sets me apart is my ability to combine professional veterinary knowledge with real world training experience, allowing me to provide safe, attentive, and reliable care for every pet. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine since I’m a full-time online student, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m able to be home throughout the day for walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins, and I can easily adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s specific needs. Whether a pet requires frequent potty breaks, structured routines, or just extra attention, I’m able to provide consistent and reliable care. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs, routine, and personality. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping pets on their normal schedule to reduce stress, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any medications if needed. I also make sure to keep their environment clean, safe, and comfortable. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I provide a structured but relaxed environment with plenty of supervision, enrichment, and exercise. I’m attentive to behavior, safety, and comfort at all times, and I adjust care depending on age, energy level, and any special needs. With my background in veterinary medicine, I’m also able to monitor for any changes in behavior or health and respond appropriately if concerns arise.

About: I’m an experienced and dependable animal lover who used to pet sit pretty consistently and have gained a lot of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages and personalities. I’m especially comfortable caring for senior dogs and puppies, with experience providing the patience, attention, and individualized care they need. I’m comfortable administering oral medications and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. My schedule is often flexible and can accommodate short-notice requests when needed. I truly love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own, so you can feel confident knowing your pets will be in caring and capable hands. 🐾 I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the week and on weekends. I can often accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and bedtime visits, as well as short-notice requests when needed. My goal is to work around your pet’s routine to provide consistent care and keep them comfortable while you’re away. I currently provide care in my clients’ homes through dog walking and drop-in visits. I always prioritize keeping pets comfortable by following their normal routines, respecting any instructions provided, and creating a calm, safe environment while you’re away. I make sure pets have fresh food and water, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs, whether that means extra patience with puppies and senior dogs or giving shy pets time to warm up. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own, with safety, trust, and reliable care being my top priorities.

About: I’m originally from Michigan, I love to travel and take adventures. Just graduated with a Bachelors In Science in Radiation Therapy and am looking for a break from studying for my ARRT boards. I grew up living with many different animals from dogs, cats, and birds, to horses and alpacas. I have a lab mix of my own. One of my favorites things is to cuddle and go to the dog park with her. I love going on walks, playing catch, tuggawar and everything that your dog loves. I am home all day so your pup will get a lot of attention. My dog gets along great with all dogs and loves to play and share her toys. If you’re dog loves other dogs and company this is the right place for them!

About: I have the innate ability to put pets and their owners ease. I have had the opportunity to care for many pets in my neighborhood over the past 15 years. The comfort of a home versus s kennel is priceless to s pet and owner. I boarded my dog only one time and realized I could never do that to her again. My next door neighbor and I began switch off care for our animals during vacations and my other friends heard and wanted my help with their four legged loved ones. I I have boarded several at my home for a week at a time and was able to give owners piece of mind. I also dog sit/ house sit as needed due to the ages of the pets. The older pets tend to be more at ease in their own space. I walk every morning with my dog and other dogs for my health as well as theirs. Keeping pets moving keeps them young!

About: Hi there! My experience with animals has been life long. I grew up with dogs and cats as a child, and currently have 2 of my own. I work for a local veterinary clinic as an assistant which has expanded my knowledge on all different types of animals and their care. I am capable of caring for dogs of all sizes, from teacup to giant, and of all ages. I have experience with puppies to senior dogs that require daily medication and extra attention. I believe that pets are like children and should be treated as such! Your animals will be treated like my own, including love, walks, and play time. I would love to be able to meet your pet and show them love and care in your absence. I can also care for small critters and reptiles. I look forward to hearing from you!

About: I have been around animals my whole life, loving them and caring for them. I started fostering dogs 7 years ago and love everyday. I enjoy being outdoors and walking mine and other dogs. I can teach some basic obedience skills about walking and behavior. You may even get some cute photographs of your dog while you're away :-) I enjoy going to different parks, and greenways or even going for a nice long hike! I currently work part time (in the morning) but have my afternoons open to dog walking! I have some weekends available as well to dog walk or drop in. If you don’t have a fenced yard your dog will always stay on leash. I always recommend microchipping pets & wearing collars with name tags to ensure safety.

I couldn't be more pleased with Maddison and the exceptional care she provides for my furry friend. She’s incredibly reliable, always showing up on time and with a genuine enthusiasm that my dog absolutely loves. Her attention to detail, from following specific instructions to ensuring my dog gets plenty of exercise and playtime, is unmatched. Her professionalism and kindness have truly made a difference in both our lives. I highly recommend her services to any dog owner looking for a trustworthy and caring walker!
