About: I have always been the go-to person for many of my family and friends to go and feed the dogs or hang out with them. I grew up with dogs and always understood cues on when to give space or when they needed something! I adopted my dog almost two years ago and immediately started dog walking with her and later did basic training. At the moment, I work part-time from 1:00-6:30pm. My mornings are free during the week and I try to stay available for weekends. I am more likely to accept a new request with at least a week advanced notice, I will try to be flexible if that is not possible. In other pet owners home, I will make sure to follow any guided directions or precautions in order to ensure trust and safety in the home environment. In my home, I keep areas clean and free of anything harmful to dogs. I throw toys away that are damaged or could cause harm because of damage. I give lots of enrichment through feeding games, training inside and outside, and toys that allow her to use her brain! I make sure she eats well and drinks plenty of water while getting lots of outside time!

Ericka did an amazing job looking after our 3 kitties! She is clearly very experienced, loves animals, was very communicative and took great pics. Our kitties are normally really shy and she was able to get them to eat and come out. Very happy with Ericka and will hook again!

Karen did a wonderful job taking care of my cat for two weeks. I was worried about leaving my kitty alone for that long but everything turned out fine. The daily updates and pictures I received reassured me that my cat was in good hands. I won’t hesitate to use Karen’s services again.

About: My parents bred/showed dogs all my life so I grew up with dogs in all stages of life around and also have experience training and showing. I have a 2 yr old dog who does agility and diving. I'd love the opportunity to hang out with your pet. Im not currently working as I am disabled but am looking for something to help me be more active. I'll have plenty of time to hang with your pet. Im available pretty much any time with some notice. I will care for your pet as if they were my own. I will respect your home and am big on following whatever directions you have for me for their care.

Kristin D. provided excellent care for our dogs during our absence. Being first-time leave-at-home pet owners, we were initially hesitant, but Kristin diligently sent us regular photo updates, which greatly reassured us. We are highly satisfied with her service and intend to engage her again in the future.

About: I have worked and volunteered at animal shelters so I know how to handle cats and dogs and tend to their needs. I have babysat dogs for my family, family friends and neighbors. I’ve gone to check in on their puppies. I am a full time student in school to be a Veterinarian. I have taken care of many different animals such as dogs, cats, ferrets, pigs, chickens, ducks, rabbits, sheep’s, goats and reptiles. I have my certification to give intramuscular, intravenous, and subcutaneous injections to fulfill your pets needs. I am a full time college student. I only go to school two days out of the week during the morning time. So I will be able to stay home the rest of the time to care for your babies. We wake up let the dogs outside, let them back in to eat and then go back outside sometimes we will play outside will the ball. Our older dogs like to stay inside.

Absolutely wonderful. I was worried because my dog is elderly and takes multiple medication but Jessica welcomed all of my request. They declined my offers to short-cuts and exceeded my walking expectations. The cherry on top is my dog looked healthier than every when I came back.

Faith took amazing care of my dogs while I was away! I had her pop in twice a day to let the dogs out and feed them, and she was punctual for every visit. The dogs were happy in every photo that she sent to me. Overall would definitely rebook with Faith when I go out of town again.

Taylor was the absolute sweetest and best caretaker for my Sunnie! She made sure to track every walk with Sunnie, gave a detailed explanation for every trip made, and made sure to send pictures. She took the best care of Sunnie and gave her all the cuddles. Made my trip so stress-free not having to worry about my dog, or message her to make sure everything was going okay because she was doing that without me asking! Need a Rover sitter, book her!

About: Hello! My name is Jillian, I’ve been a dog owner for many years, dogs are my number one favorite animal! I have one little fur baby myself, named Bella, I’ve had her since she was a baby! I’ll make sure your babies or baby will be walked, fed and loved! And if they need to be bathed or brushed, I will also do that as well! I would love to have more dogs around, they just bring so much joy and I would like to give them the love and playtime that they need! I’m 21 years old, a junior in college, attending school online, therefore I have lots of free time! And I feel this would be perfect to keep myself busy with all this spare time! And doing something that I love! I have a spacious back yard, and I enjoy going on nice long walks or runs, but I enjoy it more when I have company, walking besides me! I can’t wait to get all kinds of different pups to care for! I am available at anytime while being a college student, i have lots of free time, therefore pet care fits very well into my daily schedule I have a spacious home, with a fenced yard, lots of room for your pets to be able to play and be able to roam around in
