About: I have taken care of animals for friends and family over the years! I also have 3 fur babies of my own that I’ve rescued. I’m currently in the navy but I’m on shore duty so I have time in the mornings and evenings to take care of pets for others. I am used to different methods of taking care of animals so I can do anything that the owner requires for their fur babies. Such as crating etc

“Matt was AMAZING with our pit/boxer mix, Frank. He was prompt and timely every day and posted lots of photos to help ease my “pet withdrawals” I will definitely use Matt on a regular basis and will recommend him to all of my dog parents. 10 out of 10 fantastic!!!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 2 years and absolutely love it. I have one dog of my own and a passion for training, helping dogs learn new tricks and good behavior is something I really enjoy. I’ve dog sat for several families and regularly walk dogs in my neighborhood. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just companionship, I always make sure each dog feels safe, loved, and cared for. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine. I start my day by taking my dog out for a walk and making sure both my dog and cat are fed and happy. Throughout the day, I set aside time for walks, play sessions, and training when needed. Whether I’m pet sitting or walking dogs for others, I plan my schedule to give each pet the time and attention they deserve. Taking care of animals is something I truly enjoy, so it fits seamlessly into my everyday life. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I follow any routines or instructions provided, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and medication if needed. I create a calm and positive environment, giving pets plenty of attention and affection while also respecting their space. In a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own keeping everything clean and making sure their pet feels secure while they’re away.

“Shailin is great! We will definitely use her again!”

About: I’ve always had a passion for caring for animals of all kinds. Growing up, I was surrounded by rabbits, cats, dogs, hamsters, and more. Friends and family know me as the go-to person for pet advice and rehoming support. With years of hands-on experience, I’m here to provide your pets with the same love and care I give my own. I’m a stay at home mom which makes me available to care for animals full time, I’m not away from animals for more than a two hour time - but only if we need a store trip. Our home is fully fenced in, the animals will never be outside or alone with my children unattended. We only take animals from one family at a time.

“Nancy has been great with our dog Bart! Always on time and also gives us great tips as new dog owners. It’s obvious she cares about the animals she works with.”

I plan my schedule around providing consistent and attentive care, ensuring each pet gets the time and attention they deserve.

Caring for pets brings balance and joy to my day, and I love building bonds with them while supporting their health and happiness.

For dog walking, I tailor each walk to your dog’s energy level and preferences, ensuring they get the right amount of exercise and exploration. I always prioritize safety, stick to your instructions, and return your dog home happy and tired.

About: I've loved dogs my whole life and have cared for them since I was a kid. My experience with dogs includes dog sitting, playtime and walking dogs for family members, friends and neighbors frequently. I have experience with Yorkies, Pit Bulls, Doberman Pinchers, Poodles, Cane Corsos and American Bullys. I personally own a sweet lab/pittie mix who is a great companion and loves playtime. My experience also includes administering medication to dogs, giving doggie baths, fetch training, leash training and housebreaking for puppies. Rest assured that your fur baby will be safe, happy and cared for by an experienced dog lover and professional! Since this is my passion and full-time job, I will work around your dogs needs daily. We try to make this a doggy sanctuary with a 20-foot gated backyard for your dog to run around freely. I will also let your dog out if needed overnight. Cuddles and playtime will also be a part of time with us! I love to walk, so your dog will be walked up to one mile if needed. I also offer training during their stay. In our backyard, we LOVE to play fetch and lounge around. I also give doggie baths with the shampoo of your liking at a schedule that mimics yours at home. We have a private bathroom just for doggie baths. Their schedule is my schedule for their comfort! I care for my client’s pets like they are family. I believe in playtime with toys to play fetch with. You can bring any toys or bones your dog likes; we’re willing to make sure your dog is comfortable during their stay. We want owners to be as specific as possible on what their dog likes/dislikes so we can make their stay as comfortable as possible. We highly encourage you bring your own dog food so we can make sure your dog doesn’t have an allergic reaction. Any medication or special needs they might have will be followed and photos will be taken to ensure your dog is in good hands.

About: I love animals. I have a very flexible schedule and can give your dog the full attention it may need. I have been around dogs my entire life. I have experience with large and small dogs. My family and I love animals and would look forward to playing with your fur baby. I would most definitely treat them as if they are my own and would never allow any harm to come to them. Please know that I would love them and give them the best care they would possibly need. Just tell me about their personality and I will do my best to make them happy and as comfortable as possible. I would adopt every stray animal and take care of them if possible.

About: I have experience watching both cats and dogs for over 10 years, some being my own and mostly others! I have a disabled dog currently who I care for, giving me experience with medications and specialized care. I also have had two cats with health issues so I am well versed in specialized care for them as well. I look forward to meeting your babies! I am a student currently with a fairly flexible schedule. I will have a completely open schedule starting the week after Thanksgiving to Christmas as well! I am very careful with any animal I care for. I ensure we have a meet and greet prior to make sure I am completely comfortable in safely caring for your baby❤️

About: * DUE TO COVID I WILL BE WEARING A MASK AND GLOVES UPON ENTERING THE HOME* I’ve grown up with pets all my life and have a dog and 2 cats of my own. When I first tried Rover I was so nervous but ended up finding someone great it makes sense that if I was cautious to try then other people are too. I’m excited to take care of pets the way I want mine cared for. I believe that pets are family and leaving pets at home can be scary but my dog was so relaxed being able to stay where she is familiar with her surroundings and to just come home and jump back in to routine was a good feeling. It will be my personal goal to provide reassurance to both you and your companion while you’re away. At the beginning of 2022 I decided I wanted to be a dog trainer and am currently trying enrolled with Animal Behavior College to come a certified trainer. With this I've also completed the CPR certification for cats and dogs. My full time job was able to give me Fridays and Saturdays for the more likely chances for myself to give the care to family pets that I want for my animals. With my services I always do a check or other possible dogs around. If I am unable to cross the street of a passerby with a dog and safely I do so because I do not know the other dog well enough to know if it is okay. However if I am in a situation where I do have to pass another dog I speak up and ask if the dog is friendly while also being away of the pet I'm walking and how he or she is approaching.

“Nancy was great with my boys. I needed a dog walker in a pinch due to my work schedule so we did a quick meet and greet 2 days earlier. I was at ease knowing that my boys were being walked and given some exercise while I couldn't be around. I would definitely recommend Nancy!”
