“Dawn is always very responsible, and you can rely on her even in unexpected situations. Honestly, she has helped me out more than once when I needed to extend my trip or deal with some unforeseen circumstances.

About: I have had pets my entire life. I am a certified dog groomer as of 2019. I also take in stray kittens and find them vet help as well as their forever families. I currently don't work, my kids are home for the summer. I have 3 cats and a dog. My animals are feed 2 times a day. I used to be a mobile groomer so I have experience with coming to clients homes and discussing comfort levels and needs of their pets.

About: I have experience cat and dog sitting for various breeds and ages, and have been doing this for most of my adult life—I love it. From taking your dogs on walks, staying over night with your kitties or puppies, or even taking care of them when they are sick (I have experience with diabetic cats), I would love to make sure your pet is taken care of just as you would yourself. I’ve dealt with rambunctious wire hairs, skittish kittens, and everything in between. I am so excited to meet your favorite doggo or kitto and love on them! I currently work a full-time 9-5 job. When it comes to drop-ins and walks I am available before 8:30 am and after 5:30 pm during the week. My schedule on the weekends is more open. When housesitting I am available to stay overnight for as long as needed, but do want owners aware of my work schedule to make sure it will work for them and their animals. However you choose for me to care for your pets inside your home I am ready and prepared to do! I love cuddling with your pets and making sure they are as comfortable as possible while you are away. All I ask is for clear instructions so I can keep your fur baby’s schedule and environment as consistent as possible.
“Claire was great! She stayed at our home for the weekend and took great care of our 1.5 year old Boston. We loved getting photos and videos throughout the weekend of our pup. This was our first Rover experience and Claire made it very smooth and worry free! ?”
“Wendy did a great job with my boys!! She followed my instructions to the T and asked questions when she wasn’t sure. My boys were happy and healthy when I got home. They were sad to see her go! I will book with Wendy again!”
About: I have always had animals in my house growing up. I currently have 5 dogs and 6 cats living with me! I have fostered for the humane society with my family for the past 10 years (maybe even more)! I trained puppies to go potty outside and kittens to use the litter box. I am up for a good challenge. I am pretty free all the time now that I quit my retail job because I am leaving for a vacation but will be back by the end of July. So I am free almost all the time. I can walk your dog if that’s what you usually do, I can play with them in your backyard. I am not comfortable with bringing your animal to my home because my dog is very territorial.
