About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including puppies and seniors. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I work fully remote for both work and school, which allows me to be home and available throughout the day. This means I can easily accommodate walks, drop-ins, feedings, playtime, and bathroom breaks without pets being left alone for long periods. I enjoy building my day around the pets I care for, whether that’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening routines. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to each pet’s specific needs and maintain consistency, which I know is especially important for their comfort and wellbeing. I take safety and trust very seriously and always care for pets as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I closely follow all instructions provided, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medications, and house rules. I keep the environment clean, calm, and familiar to reduce stress for the pet. Because I work remotely, I’m able to provide frequent supervision, companionship, and timely potty breaks. I’m attentive to pets’ behavior and body language and will communicate promptly with owners if I notice anything out of the ordinary. I also ensure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times and prioritize safe, controlled walks and interactions.

About: Hi, I’m Ally and I’m a lifelong animal lover! 🐾 Pet Care: I have helped friends and family with house and pet sitting for years. I’ve had cats with many different personalities since I was a little girl, and cared for our family dogs daily my entire adult life. I have experience caring for not only cats and dogs, but birds, guinea pigs, hamsters, hermit crabs, betta fish, and bearded dragons. My three kids grew up learning pet responsibility from the daily task of caring for our beloved Pitt bull, Reggie, who lived until he was 14 1/2 years old.🪽 I believe having a pet makes you live longer and have a more fulfilling life! 🫶🏼 I promise to care for your pets like my own. 🪏 Gardening: Going away and need someone to water your plants? Your yard and plant babies are safe with me! I have been gardening ever since the 4-H program back when I was a kid, so I have a green thumb for vegetable, flower, and herb gardens, window boxes, and, of course, your beloved indoor plants.🪴 Whether it’s your leafy friends or your furry ones, you can relax knowing they are all in loving hands! I am lucky to be home with my kids most days of the week. I work remotely and out of the home part-time so I have pretty open availability to establish a weekly walking or pet care routine with a family or person in need. My schedule is pretty flexible to accommodate your pet and plant needs this summer! 🌞 Ideally, I’d love to find a family, person, or couple that needs weekly help at the same or similar times for a more or less consistent weekly routine, but I’m game for drop-ins and overnight stays too! Allow me to give you peace of mind when you’re away! I’ll take care of things like cleaning and replenishing food and water bowls, taking walks or hikes, and of course giving treats, brushes, or scratches, as needed. I can also take care of tasks like cleaning litter-boxes, pee pads, or possible accidents, as well as perform tick checks and removal!

About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs since I was 14. I was a free-lance dog walker for my neighborhood so I’ve had plenty of experience with many kinds of dogs! I work part-time so I’ll be able to take care of your pups as long as I’m not working. I enjoy taking dogs on walks as I enjoy being active. I have plenty of toys to keep your pups busy as well as my own dog, Tucker, to keep them company! I will play with them and give them as much attention and love as I can.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I can remember and have 10 years of veterinary technician experience under my belt. That being said, I am willing to administer medication, treatments or provide any special requests while caring for your pet. Due to the nature of my work, I have experience with basic training and reinforcing any current training methods you may be practicing. I am also very skilled at handling reactive/excitable dogs. I have cared for dogs, cats, reptiles, small mammals, farm animals and exotics. I had my own rescue farm in Florida & am comfortable with looking after livestock in addition to house pets. I have extensive experience with hospice, palliative & chronic illness support so I am comfortable caring for pets in all stages of their life. I believe that I have a natural connection with animals and truly enjoy getting to know their unique personalities. I can assure you that your pets, of all kind, will be well cared for and treated as if they were my own. Feel free to contact me to discuss pricing & availability. I do offer discounted rates for extended stays & multiple consecutive visits but please keep in mind that 20% of my earnings are withheld by the app to cover their fees. I have taken a sabbatical from working in a vet hospital setting and am currently working for myself, from home. This allows me to accommodate most scheduling needs, that your pet may require. I will be sure to follow all precautions when visiting your home to ensure the safety of your pet. Whether it’s leashed walks or playtime in the backyard you can rest assured that they will be safe with me!

About: Hi paw friends 🐾 I am new to Rover but I have grown up with dogs my entire life. I have always helped my family and friends care for their animals and I always enjoyed doing it. My husband and I just got married two years ago and our little girl is two and a half. It's amazing to see her interact with the dogs because she gets more comfortable and happier each time. We will eventually get a dog when the time is right, but I love Rover because it’s give me the opportunity to still bond with pups. I truly love being around animals. Our families sometimes come to stay with us with their dogs and I get a crazy burst of happiness every time. Life is just better with a dog around and I would love to care and help with your pups! :) I know it can be tough trusting your animals in others hands but rest assured that your pet will be in great hands with me & I will send plenty of updates and pictures 📸🐾 I currently work part time (every weekend). So I am free to take care of your pups during the week and I offer some services on the weekends. I will care for the pet how the owner(s) want me to care for them. They will always bed fed, hydrated, clean, warm, and the happiest they can be in my home. My home isn't that big so someone is always around. I am not an out-going person, I do have a good amount of friends but they all come to my house since I am the mama of the group :)

About: I have extensive experience in dog walking and dog sitting, combined with strong skills in veterinary medicine.

I also have large breed dogs and cats of my own, so I understand the needs of pets of all sizes and temperaments. Your pet’s well-being and happiness are my top priorities, making me the best choice for their care! I have some days off during the week that I would love to spend watching or walking your dog or dogs, I work with animals on a daily basis so this would be a walk in the park. I offer in-home boarding and day sitting, ensuring that every pet I care for is treated as if they were my own. Your pets will be in safe, loving, and trusted hands with me, receiving the same level of care, comfort, and affection that I give my own animals.

I have taken classes in dog training and know many ways to calm as well as difuse any situations involving them. I know tips and tricks to make everything a smooth experience for your pets.

About: With over 10 years of pet sitting experience, I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs and cats. I treat every pet like my own; making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I believe every animal is unique, so I always take the time to learn your pet’s specific routines, quirks, and preferences to give them the best care possible. Whether it’s long walks, cuddle time, or special feeding routines, I’ll make sure your pet feels right at home. I work Monday-Friday, 9am to 5pm but can do drop in’s for morning, afternoon, and evening. When staying at a clients home, I will leave from there to work, and return as soon as work is finished. During the weekends, I can pop in at any time. I would care for your pet exactly as you would in your own home and love them as if they were my own dogs. I take pet sitting seriously and will always send pictures and updates.

About: I am very reliable and truly love dogs. I am available anytime on weekends and limited hours on week days as I do work full time. I can walk your dog, play with your dog and watch them overnight. My family owns a dog so have a lot of experience caring for them. Size and energy level does not matter to me as I like all dogs. I am very used to high and low energy dogs as my family owned a jack Russell, and he is very energetic and needs a lot of attention, now I own an English Bulldog who loves cuddles and laying around. If you have any other questions please feel free to reach out to me, I am happy to provide more information. Looking forward to meeting some great dogs and their owners :) I am available anytime on weekends and can make weekdays work as well for drop in visits. I can also dog sit overnight during the week and weekend from your home. I will pay close attention to your dog(s) at all times and give them a lot of love. Any special instructions needed are fine as well, whatever your dog needs.

Paige was an absolute godsend. She handled our sometimes challenging pup with expertise and care, leaving us without worry. At the same time, she played and cared for our easy going dog making sure he was given attention and looked after. She is very careful and competent-- and takes care of your pups so you can be away without any concerns.
