“Tara is great with our puppy, Maverick! She was able to come to my home to let him out for me very last minute and even made time to come meet him before that first day. He is a puppy with a lot of energy, but she has so much patience with him and is happy to help with his training as much as possible during her visits. I am so happy that we found someone willing to come out twice a day through his puppy stage! We have already re-booked and will continue to do so as long as she is available. Thanks so much Tara and Tyler, for making these chaotic puppy days a little less stressful!”

“Maria was fantastic! She came over and met us before we left so we could go over the details. Our cat Keke has separation anxiety and is never without someone at home. She warmed up to Maria right away and they were besties by the end of the week!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was around 8 years old. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine because I care deeply for my animals and my friends animals as well. When I’m not home spending time with my two emotional support Cats, I am spending time with my best friend, her cat and German Shepherd. We love to take her dog on adventures and explore new hiking trails. Im more focused on dog walking but am conveniently a jack of all trades. I can follow your training advice, or if clients would like I can use positive reinforcement training methods learned from online. I can pet sit, and clean very meticulously. And I can entertain and help socialize your pets with the outside world. I can even give them baths including cats if need be.
About: I work from home and am home throughout the day, allowing me to provide consistent attention, regular potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime, and companionship. I’m flexible and able to accommodate each pet’s unique schedule and routine, whether they need a quick drop-in, a walk, overnight care, boarding, or someone to stay with them throughout the day. I’m comfortable caring for pets at different life stages, including young pets who need patience, structure, and help with training, as well as senior pets who may need extra comfort, slower walks, medication reminders, or assistance maintaining their routine. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away, and my goal is to provide dependable, loving care that makes them feel right at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and am home throughout the day.

“Nathan did a great job with my pup. She is wary of new people but she warmed up on our meet & greet and seemed to do just fine for his drop in visits. He sent me pictures which I really appreciated and even ventured out on a walk (although she wasn't as enthused). It's obvious he loves dogs and was very responsible and thoughtful. I would recommend him for sure. Thanks again!”


About: I am a very friendly person and I’d like to think animals pick up on that energy. I am usually one to be friends with the animals around me anywhere I go within the first 5 minutes of meeting. Hopefully I’ll get the chance to become pals with your babies too! I’m a School Counselor during the day Monday through Friday, but I’m hoping to add pet care into my routine as a second income doing another thing I’m passionate about! I’d be happy to check in on your pets throughout the week whenever I can fit it into my schedule (: I am a firm believer that you know your animal best! I just ask for open communication and for directions on how to take the best possible care of your fur baby!
“We enjoyed meeting Mariah and she took fantastic care of both of our cats while we were gone on vacation. We had her come by twice a day to feed and play with Scooter and Kris. She stayed in touch with us with questions and photos. You can tell that she enjoys spending time with and taking care of animals. We will definitely be using Mariah’s services again!”

About: With 10+ years of hands-on clinical veterinary experience, combined with a lifetime of growing up around, caring for, and working with animals, I bring over a decade of cumulative experience in veterinary medicine, pet care, and animal husbandry. My experience with animals began long before my professional veterinary career and includes dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, cows, horses, and many other animals. This lifelong connection has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, care, handling, and well-being that extends far beyond the clinical setting. Throughout my veterinary career, I have consistently pursued continuing education through seminars, conferences, specialized training, and additional coursework to continually expand my knowledge and strengthen my clinical skill set. I have maintained **BLS and ALS CPR certification since 2020** and have been **Fear Free Certified since 2018**, along with holding numerous additional certifications, continuing education achievements, and awards earned throughout my career. The majority of my professional veterinary experience has been concentrated in **surgery, emergency medicine, and intensive care/ICU**, where attention to detail, critical thinking, and the ability to recognize subtle changes in a patient's condition are essential. These experiences have taught me to be highly observant and proactive, with a strong understanding of early warning signs and indicators that may suggest a patient is developing a problem. I take pride in being attentive to the small details that can make a significant difference in an animal's outcome. Pets are my passion, and pet people are my people. I genuinely enjoy building relationships with both animals and their families and believe exceptional veterinary care should be built on compassion, communication, trust, and a little fun along the way. Whether I am caring for a critically ill patient, assisting with surgery, supporting a fearful/nervous pet, or simply making an animal's day a little better, I bring the same level of dedication and enthusiasm to every patient. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, valued, and well cared for—and every pet parent deserves to know that their beloved companion is in capable, compassionate hands. Your furry family members will receive the highest level of care, attention, and compassion I can provide—and we'll have some fun along the way. I am comfortable and experienced in caring for patients across a wide range of ages, conditions, and levels of acuity. My clinical experience includes the safe administration and management of oral, injectable, and topical medications, as well as monitoring patients receiving ongoing or complex treatment plans. I am comfortable working with advanced and late-stage disease, chronic and complex medical conditions, hospice and end-of-life care, geriatric patients, pediatrics, neonates, and emergency cases. My background in surgery, emergency medicine, and ICU/critical care has strengthened my ability to remain calm and attentive in high-pressure situations while recognizing subtle changes in a patient's condition and responding appropriately. I understand that each patient requires an individualized approach, and I am committed to providing compassionate, thorough, and attentive care whether a patient is recovering from surgery, managing a chronic illness, beginning life as a neonate, facing an emergency, or approaching the end of life. I am equally comfortable providing hands-on nursing care, assisting with treatment plans, communicating observations to the veterinary team, educating and supporting pet parents, and advocating for the patient's comfort and overall quality of life. Pet care has been a huge part of my daily and weekly routine for more than 10 years. Whether I’m working in veterinary medicine or caring for pets in someone’s home, I’m accustomed to making animal care a priority and building it naturally into my everyday routine. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality, habits, routines, and individual needs. For me, providing consistent, attentive care isn’t simply a job—it’s something I’ve built my life around and truly love doing. I approach every pet as an individual and tailor my care to their specific personality, routine, medical needs, and comfort level. Whether I am caring for a pet in my own home or in a client's home, my priority is always to provide a **safe, calm, consistent, and loving environment** that feels as close to their normal routine as possible. I am comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of needs, including puppies and kittens, seniors, anxious or fearful pets, medically complex patients, and animals requiring medications or additional monitoring. I can administer **oral, injectable, and topical medications**, follow detailed feeding and treatment instructions, monitor changes in behavior or condition, and recognize when something may warrant veterinary attention. My background in emergency, critical care, ICU, and surgery has made me particularly attentive to subtle changes that may indicate a problem. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect that I am also caring for someone's home and follow their instructions closely. I maintain established feeding, medication, exercise, potty, sleep, and enrichment routines whenever possible. I provide regular updates and photos so owners know how their pets are doing and can feel connected while they are away. When caring for pets in my own home, I focus on creating a secure and comfortable environment while considering each animal's temperament, energy level, social preferences, and individual needs. I believe pets shouldn't simply be "watched" while their owners are away—they should receive attention, companionship, enrichment, affection, and quality care. Ultimately, my goal is simple: I want your pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, and I want you to have complete peace of mind knowing they are in capable and compassionate hands.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Stow
Jennifer is outstanding. She is impeccable. Scheduling, communication, attention to feeding, watering and other details caring for our home, daily reports, daily pictures, and most of all…she has a natural love for pets and they love her. Our little kitty adores Jennifer. Jennifer has an amazing calmness and gentle touch about her. On each visit our kitty trots to greet Jennifer, she adores the affectionate pets and wonderful play times. We’d change our vacation schedule if we couldn’t get Jennifer. She is that good! :-)

I trust Audrey and would highly recommend her services. The first reason is my cat loves her. I have two and the second cat hides. The second reason is she is communicative and always responds, which is important to me. I also love her pictures she takes and when I travel always trust my cats are well taken care of.

So glad I came across Lindsay, I had to head out of town last minute and she came in clutch. We weren’t able to do a meet and greet beforehand but we were able to figure something out and everything turned out fine. Will definitely keep her mind for the future!
