About: Animals run my world to say the least. Starting young and bringing everything home as a child. Snakes, turtles, ferrets, stay dogs. Everything became part of the family. As I got older the passion grew even further. Expanding to wolves, tigers, lions and more. Now also having a pack of 4 pups at home and a very spoiled kitty. Along with a few reptiles. Currently working part time having plenty of time to help take care of yours companions. I have a flexible schedule and I’m happy to work around you and your pets needs. Crating available if need for transport. Also along with chew proof leashes originally build for wolves with steal cables for even the most talented escape artist your pet is safe.

About: I live 5 min from the airport. My family and I have always been animal lovers, and I grew up surrounded by animal love. I've always lived with pets, both dogs and cats, and therefore understand their needs and how to make them feel at home. During my care, I provide constant updates on your pet's status and keep up with changes in mood or behavior. I'm a very active and fit person, ready to play nonstop or go for long walks. I love to take care of all kind of pets. Weekend will be the best moment to get animal love in my life and also help people to have the best care experience for their pets. I have a medium size house with a fenced back yard perfect for pets to run and play. My family and I love to care animals so love will be given all the time and your friend will always be treated with the best conditions.

About: And small ones. And cats. Basically all animals! Hello, my name is Jamie and I am an avid animal lover! I had two cats, both I had since they were less than a year old and they lived to be 20 and 22 years old. I know right?! I now have two large dogs who love to go on walks and car rides and they both have very different personalities. I will lovingly take care of your family member as if they are my own and provide updates while in my care. I understand not all animals react the same and I am noticeable of atypical reactions from dogs: cowering, tail tucking, and snarling are all signs that I am observant of and will back away to give the pup time on it's own to adjust and come to me when it is ready. I look forward to hearing from you and taking care of your precious family member. Thank you! I will have availability during the week and also on weekends to take care of your family member and I am available for pop in services such as potty breaks or walks during those days as well. Since I have two dogs of my own I won't be providing services at my home but I can visit your pups or cats in the convenience of their own homes.

“she was last-minute booking because of an illness with my other Dogwalker and she was my hero yesterday!! Responsible on time wonderful with my dog I can’t say enough great things about her. I feel like I just got so lucky. I look forward to being able to work with her again.”


About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, from small breeds to big ones, and I genuinely love spending time with them. I’ve helped care for family and friends pets including feeding, walking, playing, and even administering medication when they needed some. What I would say that sets me apart is I treat every dog like their my own with the right amount of patience and attention. I’m also active, responsible, and always make sure pets feel safe. Whether it’s a long walk or a belly rub I’m all in. Im currently on break from university, so I have plenty of free time and a flexible schedule. Pet car fits perfectly into my days since I am always active and so going for walks with dogs fit right in. I also have the time to give them attention, playtime, and care whenever they need it. I take safety very seriously and make sure my home is pet friendly, clean, and secure. I remove anything that could be harmful and always supervise pets closely. Whether it be inside or outside pets will have a safer space to relax, playtime, and feel at home. I will also follow any specific instructions from pet parents to make sure their pets feel comfortable and cared for just like they would be at home.


“Josh did a great job walking my dog. He made himself available to come to my house for a meet and greet on very little notice. He was on time every day, and sent me a text letting me know that everything went well. I plan on using Josh again, and would recommend him to anyone else who is looking for a dependable care giver.”


About: I have experience working with elderly and sick dogs so I am used to administering medicine. I had two dogs before I moved out of my parents a teacup chihuahua and a mutt named buddy. Felipe is 13 and buddy is 6. I have experience working at a dog shelter in San Diego California when I was 13-14. I am open to all breeds and all sizes. Both of my dogs were from the spca so I’m used to untrained pups. I will treat your dog like they are my own. Trips to the dog park regularly if boarding and regular walks and attention. I am a piercer at a tattoo shop and my partner is a tattoo artist, we have revolving schedules. Usually the pup would only be left alone 1-2 hours at a time, when i go to work and he comes home right after i leave. We are both animal lovers so being on rover is a nice way from preventing us from getting our own dog. I do stay in apartment but we make sure to go on regular walks around the neighborhood. There is a small fenced in area i like to take them too as well.

About: I’ve always loved animals since I was a kid and got my first dog when I was 10. They lived a long and healthy 18 years of life. When they were 15, we got them some company with a puppy! Although their energy was opposite, they got along swelling well. Loving to get back in touch with the fur family so I’ve been caring for family and friends pets more often. I’m an actor so I always know how to entertain them as well as being able to read them pretty well. I have some experience with administering medication as well. I’m currently a grad student on summer break so I have plenty of time currently for all my fur babies needs! Once school begins in September I’m positive so early morning as well as evening care is more than possible. I do not offer care at my own home, but am an extremely neat, tidy, and minimal person. Any past clients I’ve had to do overnight stays with can attest to that.

About: Experienced with various breeds and various medical needs with dogs and pets. Happy to earn your business and love your fur baby while you’re busy. I also have my own pet insurance for boarding and pet transport. I am staff with 3 trained employees to help maintain smooth and orderly dog sitting and dog boarding. Active dogs get taken on runs, walks and get to play ball, tug-a-war and bubble play. We take pride in making sure your dog has the fun they deserve. I can also be found on Google Anytime Pet Transport I make time for the pets and their families. Accommodating families is my priority. I’m off for the winter and would be happy to help and have trained employees on site to assist Multiple walks daily water available to pet at all times fetch is our favorite past time and making sure your pet Is happy is my priority.

About: My passion for caring for animals began in childhood while growing up on a farm. From a young age, I helped clean stalls, collect fresh chicken eggs each morning, and care for a variety of animals. I was always the kid begging my parents for more pets, and animals quickly became my greatest source of comfort through a tough childhood. I have over 10 years of hands-on experience working on a horse farm, where I learned the value of consistency, safety, and attentive care. In addition, I’ve fostered bottle-baby kittens, assisted my mom in breeding golden retrievers, and helped raise her litters many times. My love for animals has no boundaries — I’ve worked with everything from farm animals to dogs, cats, and even jumping spiders, which I currently breed. I have two dogs of my own — Meme, who is 6, and Pia, who is 3 — and they are my whole heart. They have a daily routine I take seriously: outside time at 6:00 a.m., treats before I head to work, a midday potty break, and an evening 30-minute walk at 5:30 p.m. On weekends, we enjoy adventures at the park or exploring new places. I understand how important structure and routine are for pets, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. Over the years, I’ve provided a wide range of pet care — from weekend stays to week-long vacations — both in my home and in others’. Whether it’s an active pup needing exercise, a senior dog requiring gentle attention, or a young animal that needs extra patience, I’m flexible, attentive, and committed to giving each pet the love, safety, and care they deserve. My pups have an entire routine each day. In the morning they go outside at 6:00 am. I do have a fenced in back yard, so I leave my sliding glass door open so they may come in and out. The get treats in the morning before I go to work. I do return home for lunch to let them out to potty. I return home around 5:30 each day and we go for a 30 minute walk. They get their bedtime treat and we start again the next day. On weekends I do like to take them to the park or on adventures. My pups would love some friends, and sleep overs. I know how important my dogs routine and/or schedules are and I would take your pup’s routine just as seriously. The amount of care I offer for pets on a regular basis always fluctuates. I have had pups for a week long vacation, and I have also had just weekend stays. Various weekends I do stay at others homes and care for their pets. I’m very flexible.

About: I have always had a special patience for animals, and always found myself able to work with them, however challenging and especially however loving they can be. I am very ready to assist with your pet needs. I am currently working as a server, so one night stays are best rather than weekend stays. I have my own black cat who is spoiled with many cat friendly accommodations around the apartment, and her food, water and litter required daily upkeep. Because of my own animals I cannot currently board in my home but I am happy to come to your house and care for your fur baby there. I like to consider myself a house mouse, and am extremely respectful of another's household!

About: I used to have 7 dogs growing up and understand the need and care they requiere for them to be in a happy and comfortable environment I work from home, so anytime works with me. I can walk the dog whenever your say. Let me know the dogs routine and I will adapt to it. I have a yard and they will not be allowed without a leash outside the house for safety reasons. My home is welcoming and your dog will love it.

“Jordan is really great with dogs. When she moved home with me she made a lot of good suggestions regarding training my 4 dogs. They are much better behaved because of her and they love her very much. I've also seen her deal with Thor, the Husky/Great Pyrenees mix next door. He is high strung and hard to manage. He listens to Jordan, she can catch him when he gets out. Jordan is dependable and diligent. She'd be a good addition to your company.”
