6. Aubrey N.
“Aubrey is wonderful with Zero my 92 lb German Shepherd! She always arrives on time and did 2 meet and greets before to get to know him. She handles larger dogs with ease and is always aware of surroundings while walking him. Zero does not like many people. Zero warmed up to her in about 10 mins the first time, 2 mins the 2nd time and he was immediately her friend the next. This is unheard of with Zero. I am so thankful she was not intimidated and I could clearly tell the 1st time meeting her she loves dogs. She had the pack leader mentality which u need with Zero and won him over quickly. I will continue to use Aubrey she is trustworthy and dependable. She stayed at the house and treats my house as if her own. Having her watch Zero allows me to be gone without worry. I am so thankful I connected with her on Rover. She takes care of my dog just like her own. She is a top notch dog sitter!!”

About: The dog owners will love how good I am with the dogs and other animals they may have. But don’t let me speak for my actions, let your pets. I believe that I have the experience and the requirements to do this job. This is not my first time taking care of an animal, so this is easy for me . I’m here to keep your animals healthy and happy , while managing to earn some money for a car and maybe another pet of my own. Thank you for the opportunity. All you have to do is text/call me and ask when my availability is and I should respond shortly after. My availability varies depending on my schedule. I will treat your pets as my own, with love and affection! I am a huge animal lover, so spending time with your pets will be enjoyable for me and your pets!

“"I'm beyond pleased with the pet sitting service! They didn't just care for my pets; they truly spent quality time with them, making sure they felt loved and attended to. Highly recommend for any pet parent!"”
15. Danielle R.
About: I have grown up with dogs, my whole life and took all my childhood dogs thru obedience classes in 4H for 10 years. After that I went to animal behavioral college and graduated with my behavioralist degree. I am pet CPR certified. I also help run an animal rescue where we have dogs and cats to care for. I am currently working part time and that job is very flexible so I can work around and fit your pet care needs into the schedule. I make sure to follow all your instructions, and I’m very careful and cautious about walking the dog or letting them out to go potty making sure they’re always on leash, and they never escape.
