About: As an experienced pet sitter and cat owner, I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. By having my own pet I understand the need for patience, attention to detail, and maintaining routines. I provide compassionate care tailored to each pets needs and personality, treating every animal as if they were part of my own family. Im am currently working part time and at most work three times a week. This allows me to have a lot of availability to care for your animals! I care for pets in clients homes by following their normal routines to help pets feel safe and comfortable. I also give regular updates to owners and make sure the pets get plenty of love when their owners are away.

About: I started my own dog walking business in my neighborhood when I was 14. I have genuine love for dogs, I bring reliability, patience, and attentiveness to every dog walking session. Your furry companion's safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I ensure they receive the exercise and attention they need. From navigating different personalities to handling various breeds, I have the expertise to cater to your dog's unique needs. When you hire me, you're not just getting a walker; you're gaining a trustworthy and compassionate companion for your beloved pet. I am also a intern at a veterinary hospital where I have learned a lot about animal welfare. I currently only have one class from 8am-10:15am and I am free in the early mornings, early and late afternoons, and night time. I work 2 jobs on the weekends so availability on those days may differ. I pamper every single pet I own. My dog gets his own separate dinner plate full of our meal scraps like salmon skins and meat, etc. My 2 cats are nice and plump and have an endless amount of toys. I take my dog to my neighborhood dog park every day to ensure he gets the enrichment he needs.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always loved caring for animals. I had my own dog for 9 years who recently passed away, and I truly treated him like my baby. I have experience dog sitting for family and friends, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, and giving lots of attention. I’m patient, responsible, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll always make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently work part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet lots of attention and care. I’m available most afternoons/evenings during the week and have more open availability on weekends for drop-ins and walks!! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow feeding and potty schedules, keep a close eye during playtime, and make sure pets are supervised. I provide frequent updates, and I treat every pet like my own.

About: Growing up, I have had several and feel very comfortable with most breeds and their distinctive traits. I am a believer that pets are just like children. They needs lots of love, attention and constant care. Because of my experience, I am comfortable walking, feeding, playing and caring for your dog. Our schedule is very flexible so it's easy for us to be there for your dog. We go on several walks a day, giving them a chance to go potty and enjoy playing with them to make sure they feel loved and secure while they're with us. Because we live on a 600 acre property, safety is our top priority. When we are taking walks with your dog, we will take every precaution necessary to ensure your dog is safe. You can bring your dog's favorite toys or blankets, however we have everything your dog would need to feel at home with us. I wash everything after each visit to make sure all of our things are clean for the next fur baby. We have food and water bowls, toys, beds, blankets, crates and even leashes. We want to make it as convenient as possible for you while ensuring your dog is comfortable with us.

I used Rover.com for the first time and found Emily who lives close by. She walked both our dogs twice a day while we were out of town as my live at home daughter works late. It was pretty clear the dogs loved seeing her and enjoyed the walks and attention while we were away. Greatly appreciated the texts and pictures of the dogs. We will definitely be using Emily again.

About: Hi! I’m Kelsey, and caring for animals has always been something that comes really naturally to me. I recently adopted my cat, Louis, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. I work full-time in behavioral health, so I bring a lot of patience, attentiveness, and calm energy into how I care for animals—especially those who may be a little anxious or need extra reassurance. I’m available for drop-ins and walks, with extra flexibility on Tuesdays and Fridays when I work from home. I’m happy to follow detailed routines, send regular updates, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet needs playtime, a walk, or just some company, I’d love to help! Pet care fits really naturally into my weekly routine. I work full-time during the day, but I’m available for morning, evening, and weekend visits, with extra flexibility on Tuesdays and Fridays when I work from home. I try to keep my schedule balanced so I can be fully present with each pet, and not feel rushed between visits. I’m happy to stick to consistent routines, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate specific timing needs when I can. I’m especially a good fit for pets who benefit from a calm, steady presence or a little extra patience. I care for every pet the way I’d want someone to care for mine, with patience, attention, and a really calm energy. I recently adopted my cat, Louisville aka Louis, so I know how important it is to trust the person coming into your space. In your home, I’m very respectful of routines and will follow instructions closely to keep things consistent and low-stress. I take my time building trust, especially with shy or anxious pets (and cats who like to take their time warming up). I’m mindful about safety - secure doors, leashes, clean spaces, and making sure your pet is always comfortable. I’ll also send thoughtful updates and photos so you feel connected and at ease while you’re away. Whether your pet wants playtime, a walk, or just a cozy presence nearby, I’m happy to meet them where they are.

About: I love dogs and they seem to love me...cats, too! I am currently looking for pet sitting clients, in my home or the client's home. I live on a peaceful, private and safe property, bordered by the woods and a lake in Brookeville. I have cared for my own pets for most of my life and have also worked as a dog walker and dog hander at a dog daycare center. I have also fostered and rescued dogs and cats. I have an extensive background in unrelated fields, such as music, graphics/video, real estate, property management and working as a home healthcare aide. Please feel free to ask any questions that you may have. Best ~ Mark I can always put my pet clients and visitors first. Outside of working with animals, I work on music, home renovations, read, etc. My home is a large garage that I converted into a guest house with a recording studio. The house where I have pet guests is a private home near the woods. I have over 2 acres where I can walk dogs, plus 80 acres of woods behind the house for hikes. I have security cameras at the property. There is only one neighbor nearby and it is a very quiet and peaceful area. I am completely trustworthy as far as caring for client's pets. I have worked as a guitar teacher and pet handler, various other jobs that required background checks.

She kindly sent us the most adorable pictures of her with our dog. He clearly enjoyed his time with her. She was a lifesaver and so kind to our dog!!
