About: Been around dogs since I was a little kid I volunteered in dogs at risk shelters . Comfortable with large breeds in Florida . Had a German shepherd as a kid and had a pitbull currently Intill college I am a college student at NTI I go to school at 12 to 3 so I am available early in the morning and then later on after 3 I was in charge of training my dogs growing up and I always ran a tight ship so I will be just as good to your dogs in your own home and keep them to whatever plan you have in place.

“Rachael has been a Godsend for us! We have not been able to leave very long as we couldn’t find anyone to come take care of Shiloh! I came to Rover to try and find someone and there she was!

About: I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’ve had the joy of caring for my own dogs over the years, which has taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of making pets feel safe and loved. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone, and I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and treating each pet with the same love and comfort they get at home. My schedule is really flexible since I work in Real Estate, so I have plenty of time to give pets the love, walks, and attention they need. Communication is really important to me. I make sure to understand your pet’s routines, needs, and preferences so I can keep them happy, comfortable, and cared for. Clear communication helps ensure we’re a great fit and gives you peace of mind while I’m with your pet. My goal is always to create a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both you and your pet.

“LaJuan was so good with my babies! They're normally very tentative around new people, but they warmed right up to her. I was nervous before my trip because I've never left them for this long before and I've never left them in someone else's care, but knowing LaJuan is also a cat parent put my mind at ease. I knew I could trust her to take good care of my gremlins while I was gone. I'll definitely be booking again with LaJuan for my next trip!”

Growing up, I eagerly took part in caring for them and have gained a lot of knowledge and experience in pet care. I have also provided pet sitting/walking services to friends and family.

I have a very flexible schedule and more than happy to work with you to accommodate your pet’s unique needs, routines, and preferences to ensure they are comfortable and cared for! When caring for your pet in your home, I prioritize their safety, respect your space (and theirs), and strive to create a calm, trustworthy environment where your pets feel secure and loved.

About: All pets are always treated as family members. They have access to the entire house, sleep in the bed and go outside anytime they want. My schedule is very flexible as I work from home. I do spend a lot of time outside with them and taking them for walk to get their exercise. I also send pictures and video throughout the stay so you can enjoy your vacation. I have a fenced yard, pool and trampoline where all pets can enjoy their day. I also have 4 dogs so they will have a playmates.

About: I absolutely love animals, all sizes, big or small! I’ve grown up in a multi animal household. Large dogs to small dogs, hamsters, cats, and the list goes on!

They get the royal family treat 💛 I have open availability during the week and weekends to watch your pets! My passion falls into taking care of your babies like my very own.

I have a daughter and would love for us to start getting out of the house. I am basically always free, and would love to take care of your fury family members! I have fenced yard if I were to have your pet at my home. I also have a female dog who is super energetic while outside. I own a dog crate as well, just in case.

About: I've owned dogs for 23 out of my 25 years of life, and of those 23, 18 years were they my responsibility to be bathed, fed, walked, and picked up after. I owned 2 pit lab mixes, 2 Chihuahua variants, and a Mastiff Terrier. I have plenty of experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes! Currently I am a full college student who struggles to have the time for a conventional job with 8 hour shifts 5 days a week. Pet care allows me to focus my energy on time periods that fit my schedule! I am great with handling dogs and did very slight training with my pit lab mixes. I have had difficult dogs in my terrier Mastiff, where you learn to play their game to get them to cooperate. I am extremely affectionate, and once your dog has met me, I'm likely never to stop loving on them!

Katherine V.
“Katherine was phenomenal in taking care of my dogs and their needs while I was out of town for two weeks. During my initial conversations with her, she was sure to ask about any special considerations that need to be addressed as I have both an elderly Shi Tzu and Chihuahua. Katherine also asked probing questions to better understand my pups’ tendencies and personalities so she would be equipped to deal with any stress they may be under. The entire time I was traveling, she also made sure to send me photos and updates to let me know they were okay, as well as take time to engage with them and make sure they were mentally stimulated. I have been hard pressed to find any other sitters that have exhibited such a high attentiveness and compassion to my furry family members and would (and have) highly recommended them to anyone that is on the fence or worried about who could be trusted to take care of their beloved animals. Katherine is absolutely amazing and my family is so thankful for her willingness to work with us.”
