About: I always loved animals, particularly dogs. My parents had an "outside dog" and my college roommate had a Yorkie. I didn't get to fulfill my dream of having my own until I was in grad school. Being said I've had my Lola girl, a four year old maltipoo, since she was a puppy. I promise your dog will be safe and have fun. I will send plenty of pictures and updates :) Currently my job is hybrid. I go into Mondays through Wednesday from 10am to 3pm. I work from home Thursday and Friday, perfect for long weekend trips. As mentioned my apartment complex is gated, but I will keep leashes on for safety, unless you indicate your dog is good without a leash. If you crate train I will happily accommodate. I'm always down for meet and greets. I’m on a hybrid work schedule, so I’ll be home 2/5 days of the work week. I usually work from home on Thursday’s and Fridays . I’m overall flexible with scheduling. I have a balcony where your fur baby can spectate and sunbathe. There is also a dog park at my complex. I also have a fur baby to keep yours company.

Brenna was awesome! She was very communicative to let a nervous dog dad know exactly how my pup was doing, took great care of my dog, and made me feel much more at ease while I was at work. We will be having her come back for sure! Thanks again, Brenna!

About: I will treat your dog as if it’s mine. Administering medication according to the instructions provided by pet owners. Cleaning out litter boxes, cages, and make sure they eat as well. Exercising dogs as needed. I sometimes take them to the park or just play in my backyard. I hope I am a good fit for your dog. I am currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to be with your dog. Communication is key for me, if your dog has to stay days extra, as long as we have good communication should not be a problem, that way I can schedule accordingly with other pet owners. I have a fenced yard and one dog that will keep him/her company. One thing you should know is that I have dogs at my place everyday. Welcome to my lifestyle.

About: I’ve cared for companion, sport, and service dogs for most of my life. I’m currently raising my fourth dog, a beautiful German Shepherd named Pancake. She behaves politely in busy coffee shops, streets, and crowds. I love that I can take her anywhere with me without worrying how she’ll react to unfamiliar dogs and people—she loves just about anyone! Getting Pancake from a rambunctious eight-week-old puppy to the well-mannered adult she is now took tremendous effort. Just like you, I know first-hand how much time, energy, and care it takes to raise our pets. Rest assured, I will care for your family as I care for mine. I work my main job from home and set my own schedule, so I can fit a wide range of times. Please don’t hesitate to reach out about any scheduling details. One thing worth knowing up front: I never rush a visit. If your dog needs a few extra minutes, those are on me at no extra charge, and I give every client the same courtesy. Because a visit now and then runs long, I keep some flexibility around start times. I always aim for your booked time, but please allow up to 30 minutes on either side. For a 2:00 PM booking, that means I may arrive anytime between 1:30 PM and 2:30 PM. Your pet’s safety and well-being always comes first. They’ll have my full attention the whole time we’re together. I’m constantly reading their mood, behavior, and surroundings, so I can catch anything that seems off early and keep them comfortable and happy.

About: I have taken care of dogs for a long time. I’m a very reliable friend and family member. I always volunteer to help other with their fur baby, I really enjoy being able to care for your fur babies and learn their personalities not just dogs but any fur baby! I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule so while I love getting out the house and going to the river or nearby waterfalls to enjoy the scenery and get some fresh air from being cooped up in the house. My partner and I have recently moved to the area. That does not stop me though I still work from home full time and also take long walks and have a full access to a dog park! I always aim to make your pets feel like they are at their second home and having the time of their doggy lives! I work from home so I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to be able give lots of attention to your fur baby! I live in a fenced in earlier and a loveable multipoo that will keep your fur baby entertained. I was text pictures and ask questions with any concerns I may have. I work full time remotely so I have a lot of free time to give your fur baby my full attention. I have been doing this for quite some time and use to all different types of fur babies and their personalities. I care for fur babies just as my own! Lots of playtime and cuddles, I do also like to spoil with treats not tooo many haha. I also send lots of pictures and videos to keep you updated on how your fur baby is doing and any questions that I may have or concerns I will certainly contact you.

About: Who better to watch your pup than a professional tiger trainer! My love of animals led me to my career as a zookeeper which means I have direct and professional experience with daily animal care and training. Ive worked with animals from manatees to monkeys so I am comfortable caring for any size or age animal and am more than willing to accommodate for any special needs! Also be sure to let me know if you are in the process of training your pup as I can help you to keep up those behaviors during the walks/stays. I am also a certified veterinary assistant so you can rest assured that your pet will be safe and loved with me receiving the best care possible. Long term sittings are my fav and I can also be available for last minute bookings. I do work full-time as a zookeeper so my hours are a little bit different than the typical person. I’m usually out of the house from 6:30am until about 3:30pm. Whatever you do for your pets is exactly what I do for them. I will always follow that same routine to the best of my ability to make sure they are the most comfortable they can be.

About: If you have specific directions of what you want, I will do it how you will tell me! My own dog has to take a daily pills, so I understand how to administrate pills. I am very friendly & understand how important animals can be to a person. I will treat your dog as it is my own! Your dog will be loved unconditionally in my home. I live with my family, so it will get constant attention. Just a little heads up as well I am a summer college student, so I wake up at 6am & will be home by 1pm. So if needed, I can wake up earlier to walk your dog if they enjoy morning walks. If you choose me, I can’t wait to meet your little pupper!

Olivia was great with my new rescue. We are still learning his personality and quirks, and she quickly made friends. She sent me multiple updates and pictures. Most importantly, she was able to troubleshoot on her own. She was quick to respond to my initial message and kindly guided me through my first Rover exchange. No notes. Highly recommend.
