About: I am not currently working so I have all the time in the world to dedicate to the pups! In general I'm quite flexible, I like to fly by the seat of my pants. Within the past 9 years my brother got a Basset Hound, (who has since passed), my parents got a German Shepherd, (who has since passed), and I got a Shepherd/Hound rescue pup. Man so I miss having pup around! I've quickly become the dog sitter because I like dogs more than people! I am very comfortable with big dogs and open to working with smaller dogs. I love taking long walks with the pups. If the dog is willing I love to teach them new things! I have all of the patience in the world for dogs. They are and will always be my number one priority at all times. I will respect and follow any rules or guidelines you have knowing full well how much work goes into training and wouldn't want to cause any set backs. I'm a stay at home mom of a 5 year boy. He goes everywhere with me and is also amazing with dogs. So if your dog just needs some company or a nice walk, I'm your girl! I care for any pet as if it were my own. Any specific directions given to me will be followed to a "T". I know how important pets are and I treat them as such.
“Samantha was on time and took great care of our dog!”
“Having Heidi check-in our our 3 cats gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. She went above and beyond to assure that they (and our plants) got the care they needed and we would entrust her to look after our kitties the next time we travel. Heidi is very experienced, friendly and responsible. We definitely recommend her!”
About: I have 1 dog that is a golden retriever. I’ve had pets all my life and love taking care of them. I will walk, pet and give plenty belly rubs as needed. My schedule is pretty flexible. Ask me and I can accommodate. I am free most mornings and evenings. Let me know if you need any adjustments I offer overnight boarding and allow pets to sleep in the bed, on the couch or a crate. (You tell me how you want sleep!)
“Lucy went above and beyond our expectations caring for our dog. We would definitely be using Lucy again!”
About: Friend to all animals.✨ I have walked and dog-sat two pitbulls (ages: 2 and six months) on a weekly basis since the fall of 2022. My additional clients include mutts, a pug, a belgian shepherd, dobermans, and more, ages ranging 10 weeks - five years. I have stuck with some clients for over a year until their schedules changed or they moved, and with some dogs on a temporary basis. I am intent on working with the owners to adapt to their training methods for their fur-babies and enforcing those gently. Walks are enjoyable for both the dogs and me: I keep it lax and adapt to what they want in that moment. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and fur-babies alike since I was 15, when I would dog-sit and walk for family friends. I’ve had varying dog sitting and cat sitting gigs (both day visits and overnights) since then, some of which included overnight stays. Pet care is great supplemental time with pets and additional income while I full work remotely. I am flexible to work with clients on their schedules/their adorable pets schedules. I am also available some nights and weekends. My top priority besides providing love, fun and stimulation to your pets is their safety: both for their sake and my own. Making sure that we discuss your yard set up especially your fencing, and indoor set up (do you have animal gates/baby gates set up, areas they’re not permitted in), etc. Communication is key and I would love to know what works for your animal: what boundaries are set and what they’re comfortable with.
“This was our first time using Rover and an in-house dog watcher. Our dog seemed comfortable with Gabbi. And Gabbi was very attentive to our dog’s needs. We would definitely recommend Gabbi to others!”
“Thank you for hanging with Lewy! Communcation was awesome, all my animals were comfortable. I will definitely book again!”
About: I’ve taken care of many animals every since I was 10. I hope to meet your cute furry friend soon because I know their pawfect! I’m currently available Monday , Tuesday , Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday. I will always have plenty of time for furry friends! If needed I will try to extend my days! I have a fenced yard where your pup can run around and go potty in. I also have two dogs that your pup can play with. I also have many crates that can be used if needed!
“Brian met our needs last minute as our other sitter cancelled. Very professional and communicative. Would recommend.”
About: I have been around animals most of my life. I did have a dog growing up, he passed away a few years ago. I have also taken care of tarantulas, snakes, fish, other reptiles, cats and dogs. I now live with my fiance and we have two dogs that are very friendly. My schedule is open, I am off from work on weekends and get out of work around 3:00PM. Please let me know if your dog or cat has any special medicine. Your dog must get along with other animals as I have two dogs myself. I am working full-time from 7:30AM-3:30PM. I have weekends off. My schedule is flexible as long as I am notified a few days in advance. I know emergencies do happen. I will try to accommodate everyone. I am available on most holidays. I have a large outdoor kennel where the dogs love to run and play. My house inside is large and they will get plenty of love and attention.

About: I am absolutely obsessed with cats and I feel like I do Rover more so because I love interacting with other cats.

I have one care of my own who I give a lot of love to. And I have a whole house to myself with a second floor in the basement so I’m able to have cats come to my home as well yeah I have a lot of food, litter, treats, space for any cat that wanted to stay at my house. everyone in my house is also very much into cats
