“Anas and Tate are so kind and welcomed my pup Lucy into their home for the weekend so graciously! I was given picture/video updates throughout my time away which made the experience even better. I so appreciate them for being flexible with my schedule affecting pick up/drop off times. I know Lucy loved getting to know Anas and Tate and I would love to book with them again in the future! 😊”
“Ashley H. was absolutely wonderful! From the very beginning, she was communicative, professional, and incredibly caring. It was clear that she genuinely loves animals and takes pride in providing exceptional care. Throughout the stay, Ashley kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. My Rocky B. was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. I really appreciated her attention to detail, reliability, and warm personality. I would highly recommend Ashley H. to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter on Rover. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Another great sit with Adam! I think milo enjoys himself and the socialization he gets with Adam is good for her nervous personality. I get daily updates and photos which I appreciate! We will continue to book with Adam whenever he is available for Milo!”
“Do believe Bo enjoy yourself he even come home with a few more manners Michelle did an excellent job I would recommend her in a heartbeat will definitely use her again”
About: (¡Español es mi primer idioma, por si se te hace más cómodo/fácil hablarme en español!) • SATURDAYS ARE FOR FREE!! As a seventh-day adventist I observe the Sabbath, so I do not charge for Saturdays. However, I challenge you to use that money to help someone in need!🙏🏻 Drop off by Friday night: 100% off Drop off on Saturday 7am-11am: 50% off Drop off on Saturday 12pm-5pm: 25% off • There is an extra $5 charge for high energy dogs (meaning dogs that require constant/frequent attention, supervision and/or stimulation). Right now I'm preparing myself for a professional certification so I'd rather not be constantly interrupted and this is the condition I can provide to help you out. • 8 nights or more are $23/night (first adult dog) • 1 dog + 1 cat $30/night • $17/day (first dog) for 3 days or more of weekly daycare. Daycare is closed on Saturdays. • I encourage last-minute bookings! If your pet is socialized there shouldn't be any problem. In any case we'll talk about the details and I'll see if I can help you out💪🏻 • Important! Please, let me know of your pet's misbehaviors before booking. I'd really appreciate your honesty, especially if it's a last-minute booking. • Both my apartment and the surrounding neighborhood are very quiet and peaceful. There's a lot of green areas AND a small dog park where they can walk (or run) freely! • Your pet will be part of the family while they're here! They'll receive frequent attention and love if they need it or simple constant caring company if they just want that. • Cats are more than welcome! We love cats too—especially my mom. And don't worry about my dog; he has been surrounded by cats since birth, so he simply ignores them. I occasionally need sitters myself so I know how hard it is to find one that's not painfully expensive AND that you're comfortable with. That's why I want to provide the experience I'd love to receive myself: an affordable care for your pets IN COMBINATION with the most approachable and relaxed atmosphere for you as possible, ESPECIALLY if you're going away for weeks and if you have multiple pets! Let's face it. You're only looking for someone who'd simply be there and take care of them because there's no other option. You'd do it yourself if you could! So shouldn't you find sitters that make you (and your wallet!) feel at peace with leaving your loving companion behind? That's why I'm here to help! A pet parent for pet parents =) I am at home every day, all day long—except when I go out for groceries, which takes no more than two hours. Aside from that, I stay present and keep myself busy in the apartment. I cook, exercise, read, and am currently also studying for a professional certification. I don't have any visitors, nor do I go out for anything else. I moved in a few months ago. Here there's only my dog Mylo, my mother and me. • All of your pet's physical and emotional needs will be met—that is my absolute priority, including their absolute safety. • Regarding male and/or bigger dogs, since my dog is a bit picky at first with some of them, it may be necessary a 5-10 minute 'Parallel Walk' at the meet & greet. We'll just walk around the pond in front of the apartment 1 or 2 times. It’s the safest way to make sure both dogs are 100% comfortable before they share a home. Only then we'll know if I can accept your doggie. • Hey, we all want this to work out but if the dogs don't like it, well....that's why we do the meet and greet: to know if the choice fits everyone involved and choose accordingly🙏🏻 • I would NEVER intentionally harm an animal. I'd never lay even a finger on pets (to discipline them) that do not belong to me. • I never give human food to pets. Occasionally, I share certain fruits with my own dog (specifically those that are safe and non-toxic for them) or, occasionally, a boiled egg; aside from that, nothing else. BUT, your pet will strictly follow the diet you specify. • I clean the bowl and pour fresh filtered water daily. • I have set my account available to no more than 2 pets at a time; however, if you wish to ensure that your pet is the *only* one in my care (other than Mylo I mean) during their stay (for your own peace of mind), I can arrange it for a small additional fee. It is worth noting that, regardless of the number of pets present, I guarantee that I can manage their interactions appropriately, as I am always at home. • If the pet has socialization issues to the point I'm not able to serve other pet parents, that might incur in additional fees. • I operate with complete transparency, and my mission here is to serve you—to be your assistant and EXACTLY the help you're looking for right now. I'll provide as regular communication as you need and pictures of your blessing daily. My goal is your peace of mind and their comfort! • I encourage you to ask me whatever else you need to know!

“Amber was amazing! I was very nervous about leaving my cats for the first time especially since my one cat is on meds and I can’t leave him alone. He also has a weird set up where he has to be nebulized. Amber reassured me 100 % that everything was going to be ok. I recommend her 11/10 to anyone with their fur babies.”
“Anne-Katrin was an amazing sitter for us while we were on vacation! She made sure our cats were taken care of, especially as it relates to their prescription diets and instructions, and even swept up the litter box areas without us asking. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

“Ariana checked in on my cat while I was gone for a few days. She did a great job, my cat loved having someone to feed her and give her treats.

About: Growing up with my family cat, Dexter, showed me just how special cats truly are. Since then, I’ve cared for many cats through my work at a boarding facility as well as cat sitting for friends and family by recommendation. I also have two cats of my own who mean the world to me, so I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for your pets. I’ll treat your cats with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Arredondo
“Kimberly was amazing! She took great care of my dog and sent lots of photo updates. Bruno (my dog) has a bit of separation anxiety but she was able to redirect it well by taking him on a long walk and outdoor time, his favorite things to do!”
“I could tell Bella was comfortable with Paola. I know It’s not easy trusting someone with our furry baby. I recommend Paola to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
About: ☀️ Summer Safety Advisory ☀️ Due to Florida’s extreme heat and humidity, dogs are at serious risk of heat exhaustion and heatstroke in as little as 10–15 minutes of exertion during peak sun hours. Because of this, all walks during late spring through early fall may be shortened or adjusted for safety and replaced with enrichment-based activities, shaded sniff time, or indoor play when appropriate. Your dog’s health and comfort always come first. 🐾 Pet Care Experience I provide thoughtful, enrichment-focused care that’s tailored to each pet’s individual needs, energy level, and comfort. My goal is not just to “get through” a visit, but to make sure your pet feels safe, understood, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a background in wildlife sanctuary rehabilitation and have served as an adoptions director, which means I’ve worked hands-on with animals of all temperaments, ages, and medical needs. I’m comfortable administering medications ( just not injections), managing multi-pet households, and supporting shy, anxious, senior, or special-needs pets. My approach to pet care is informed by ongoing education in dog behavior, body language, and force-free, reward-based training. I pay close attention to stress signals, pacing, and environment, and I adjust each visit accordingly. Whether your dog needs structured activity, calm companionship, or space to decompress, I aim to meet them where they are. 🦴 Bonus Enrichment Option I also manage one of Gainesville’s top-rated private Sniffspots, The Zoomie Zone, located in Midtown. This fully private, reservation-only yard is ideal for dogs who benefit from off-leash play without the pressure of public dog parks. Many clients choose to incorporate Sniffspot visits into walks or drop-ins as a way to provide safe zoomies, sniff-based enrichment, or low-distraction decompression time. If you’re interested in adding a Sniffspot visit to your booking, feel free to ask. Returning clients can also receive discount codes for independent bookings. Whether we’re heading out for a structured walk, enjoying shaded sniff time, or keeping things low-key indoors, I focus on providing calm, attentive, and reliable care you can trust. 🗓️ Schedule and Booking Process To make sure every booking is safe, smooth, and a good fit, I require a free 15 minute meet and greet for all new clients. This takes place at the location where care will happen and helps ensure your pet’s comfort, safety, and compatibility with my services. -Exceptions Cats and puppies under 5 months do not require a meet and greet -Returning clients can fast track bookings Please schedule your meet and greet at least 72 hours before your first requested booking so we have time to coordinate properly. After your initial meet and greet, you are all set for future bookings. If you move to a new home or apartment, you are welcome to schedule another meet and greet so I can learn the new setup. 🚶♀️ Dog Walks and Drop Ins I batch dog walks and cat drop in visits into efficient routes using flexible time windows. This allows me to reduce travel time while still providing thoughtful, attentive care. Dog care windows Standard visits typically occur between 11:30 AM and 2:00 PM Morning visits may begin as early as 8:00 AM Evening visits are available for dogs who need extra flexibility Cat care Preferred visit window is 11:30 AM to 2:00 PM If medications or strict timing are required, I adjust visits to meet those needs Dogs are typically prioritized earlier in the day due to restroom needs, but all pets receive the same level of care and attention. 🐾 Premium Boarding Boarding is a high end, in home service designed for clients who want a fully hands off experience. At this time, boarding is available only to dogs who already have an established walk or drop in routine with me. This helps ensure your dog is comfortable with my home, routine, and resident pets. While boarding with me, your dog will -Live in home as part of the household -Be the only boarding guest, receiving one on one attention -Receive daily enrichment and engagement -Enjoy supervised access to my private Sniffspot for play, sniffing, and decompression -Enrichment may include -Food puzzles such as West Paw Toppl meals -Nature walks or hikes in San Felasco, weather permitting -Field trips to quiet recreational fields when no other animals are present -Most dogs return home happy, fulfilled, and ready to nap. 🚨 Behavior Expectations and Safety The safety of my personal pets is a top priority. Dogs boarding with me must be comfortable around cats and respectful toward my personal dog. If a dog shows aggression toward any resident pets, boarding may be ended immediately. In these cases, care will be converted to drop in visits at your home for feeding, potty breaks, and companionship. 🚗 Premium Pick Up and Drop Off For added convenience, I offer a luxury pet transport add on. I can personally pick up and drop off your dog along my daily walking route No handoffs needed, simply leave your dog at home This service is priced to reflect the time, travel, and personalized care involved ⛔ Important Booking Policies -One free meet and greet is included for new clients -Additional meet ups should be booked as a walk or drop in to cover time and travel -All pets must be listed on your Rover profile prior to booking -You have 48 hours after the meet and greet to confirm your booking before the time slot may be released -House Sitting and Drop In services follow a 7 day cancellation policy If you have questions or special circumstances, I’m always happy to talk things through. In my home, pets and plants are family, and every animal in my care is treated with the same level of respect and attention. I understand that each pet has their own personality and needs. Some thrive on companionship, others prefer play, structure, or quiet encouragement. My goal is to be a steady, calm presence your pet can rely on while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or hosting them for a field trip at The Zoomie Zone, I focus on creating a safe, enriching, and low stress environment that supports both physical and emotional wellbeing. During each visit, you’ll receive a detailed update through the Rover Card, including notes on meals, potty breaks, mood, and anything noteworthy from our time together. Occasionally, if your pet gives me a particularly great moment, I may also send a favorite edited photo directly. Unless something truly needs your attention, I won’t interrupt your vacation, work trip, or conference. I aim to be both your pet’s advocate and your peace of mind while you’re away. Safety is always my top priority for both your pet and myself. If a pet displays aggression, severe anxiety, or behavior that creates an unsafe situation, I will still ensure their basic needs are met, including food, water, and potty breaks. However, I may shorten a visit to avoid escalating stress. This policy is in place out of care and caution for everyone involved. 🛏️ Crate and Confinement Requirement for Boarding For boarding stays, dogs must be comfortable with crate use or confinement behind a baby gate or similar barrier. This is a non-negotiable requirement. At night and during times when dogs are not being actively supervised, boarding dogs are safely confined. This allows my personal pets appropriate rest and space, and ensures all dogs remain safe when I am asleep or briefly out of the house. Crates or gated areas are used as calm, neutral spaces rather than punishment. If your dog typically uses a crate, pen, or gated area at home, please let me know their routine so I can keep things as familiar and low stress as possible. If a dog is not currently comfortable with any form of safe confinement, boarding may not be the right fit at this time. I’m always happy to discuss alternatives or help determine whether a gradual transition would be appropriate.
“Miranda was great! She took care of my dog and three cats like they were her own. They came back clean and no worse for wear. She worked with my schedule and was very flexible. I appreciated all help and understanding!!”
“great service!! I couldn't be happier with the care my dogs received! From the moment we met, it was clear that he genuinely love animals and treat them like family. I highly recommend Yariel to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my dogs!"”
“I am very happy with Teddy's recent daycare stay with Chair! Chari is communicative, flexible, and accommodating. Teddy was really taken with her and her boyfriend and even attempted to follow them into the house when they went to retrieve his things as they were returning from a walk. I was a little worried about what Teddy's behavior might be due to him being puppy with a lot of energy. Chari reassured me several times that everything would be fine, and it certainly was. I plan to use Chari again for daycare for both, Teddy, and my dog Lou. I highly recommend Chari for pet care!”
“Maria is FABULOUS with both animals and people. She always goes above and beyond in terms of her care of both my dog, Lou, and I. Maria provides daycare to Lou during the week. Lou enjoys playing (and sunbathing) in Maria's big back yard along with her two sweet standard poodles and also enjoys watching television with her children. The moment Lou met Maria he fell in love with her, and he runs straight to her door and to her the moment we arrive at her home (after being welcomed and inspected by her poodles, of course). I am repeatedly using Maria to care for Lou and will continue to do so as long as she is willing to take us in. I tell her often I am so grateful to have found her.”
“I initially wanted to hire her to walk Koda twice daily. I’m glad she suggested he go to her place for doggy day care. I can tell he is having a blast. The family is very friendly. They’ve just earned a regular customer.”
“Ana is amazing!! My puppy is always so happy to see her and all the dogs in her care in the morning when I drop him off and he comes home exhausted from playing all day. I highly recommend Ana as she is like the dog whisperer and her property is amazing!!!! I will be using Ana for future daycare and boarding!!”
About: I’ve been a dog-mom for the past 14 years. Recently, our dog crossed over the rainbow bridge and we want to love on some dogs the way our dog was loved. We have cared for puppies and senior dogs alike for many years. We are active and enjoy exercising and playing outside with dogs or just relaxing at home, depending on your pet’s needs. Both online teachers, we are organized and routine-oriented, and offer flexibility with scheduling. We currently do not have children or other animals in our home.

We will only watch one family’s dog(s) at a time to ensure your baby(ies) gets the attention he or she deserves.

We hope you’ll choose us for your dog-sitting needs! Working from home, we have flexible schedules for pick-up and drop-off. We are able to spend lots of quality time with your pup!

I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and other exotic pets.

I understand how stressful being away from home can be for pets, so I work to maintain their normal routines and provide a calm, low-stress environment tailored to their individual needs.

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life, recently lost my first dog I owned on my own due to sickness. Work from home 3 days a week and home on weekends. I’m an active sitter who believes dogs thrive with frequent walks, playtime, and structure, not just being let outside. Whether your dog loves long walks, backyard zoomies, or relaxed companionship, I tailor care to their energy level and routine. I currently WFH 3 days a week and in office 2 days a week. Home on weekends, with an almost 2 year old human (attends daycare during week). I go on frequent walks or runs, spend plenty of time outside. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of room to run or relax. I can easily crate your fur bay if needed. Love cuddles and company if they are the cuddly type.
About: I had dogs all growing up. I’ve helped pet sit for friends where I walked, fed and spent time with their animals and always enjoyed the experience. I’m not working right now so I have full availability and access to my schedule. My time and hours are flexible. I have plenty of time and energy to pet sit. I live in an apartment that is pet friendly and can take as many walks as needed and offer a lot of time spent at home with your pet.
“Sarah was very responsive when coordinating drop off and pickup for our daycare. Our pup came home both days completely wiped out from all of the activity (in a good way). I would definitely book Sarah again if we need daycare in the future!”

“Brooke was great with our Labrador, Wimby, and she did an outstanding job. Wimby isn’t the easiest dog to walk—he’s strong, full of energy, and can be a handful—but Brooke handled him with total confidence and care. She was always on time, reliable, and clearly experienced with dogs. We really appreciated her professionalism and how quickly she built trust with Wimby. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and skilled dog walker!”
About: I have never lived a moment of my life without a pet by my side. Currently I just have my sweet cat Deku, but throughout my entire childhood and adulthood I have always taken care of my family and friends dogs and cats. I also have rabbit care experience as well. I have a lot of experience with administering medication for both cats and dogs, and I have worked with cats with neurological disorders as well. I am a full time artist and I run my independent business from home, so I have a very flexible schedule. (I can also offer hand painted pet portraits!) I am very easily able to check in on pets for walks or play time as needed throughout the week! I am able to come into your home to do any kind of check ins for play time and to take dogs on walks. I can also offer overnight sitting if your pets may be anxious and need that level of attention!
About: I’m a second-year veterinary student at the University of Florida with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I have dog sat numerous times for friends, neighbors, and families, including extended stays lasting several weeks. Through veterinary school and personal experience, I’m comfortable monitoring pets closely, administering basic medications if needed, and providing attentive, compassionate care. I understand how important consistency, communication, and trust are when leaving your pet with someone else, and I strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently on summer break from veterinary school, so I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the week at all hours of the day to meet your pet’s needs. If you’re looking for a long-term sitter, I will also make sure to prioritize time for your pup during the school year (August–May). When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while their owners are away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, and staying active or prefers a calmer, more relaxed environment, I’m happy to provide the care and attention that best fits their personality and needs. As a veterinary student with experience pet sitting for extended periods of time, I’m very attentive to animals’ behavior, routines, and overall well-being. I carefully follow all owner instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and household routines to ensure your pet is cared for exactly the way they are at home. My goal is always to make pets feel loved, comfortable, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind. I also enjoy sending regular photo updates so owners can feel confident their pets are safe and happy while they’re away.
About: I did a lot of pet sitting in my neighborhood when I was in middle and high school which involved watching and walking several dogs as well as cats and even some ferrets. I also helped raise and trian 3 puppy's with my parents. I also did some voulenteer work for hailes angels let rescue in gainesville. When I'm home from college I walk and feed my 2 dogs everyday. When they were puppy's I was solely responsible for them for most of the day while my parents were working I am very flexible and perfectly happy to tailor my behavior to whatever makes your pet most comfortable. I've met and watched many pets so I'm used to making skittish pets feel safe around me.
“Ariana was AMAZING with our pup Luna. We have used her services twice and plan to continue as long as she is available. She even let Luna get some afternoon sunbathing in during her visit. Luna loves her, and she made us feel at ease while we are at work.”
“Lucy and I are SO glad that we found Courtney! She is so good with Lucy, She is communicative, responsible and a hard worker. Lucy literally waits for her arrival, and I’m so grateful that I have this help from such a nice person.”
“Miranda was great and even took howie to play at the tennis courts like I do and he loves!! She communicated with me everytime she came to walk and let my young guy get his energy out! Definitely recommend!”
About: I have 17 years of animal care experience from growing up on a farm to volunteering at many animal shelters. Experience with walking and feeding cats and dogs, training, medication administration, bathing, and play time. I am an animal lover and have owned animals most of my life. I am comfortable with all types of animals and am very mindful of their individual personalities. I am currently a student who is home full time and able to provide lots of attention to animals. I am free most of the day to take pets to the park or on walks depending on their needs. I have a large yard for animals to run around safety and live in a gated community. I am open to crating or letting pets free in my home depending on the owner's preference. My husband and I have no kids or other pets so they will get our undivided attention.
About: I had my two fur kids for the last 14 years and they were my best friends! I am recently an empty nester from being a dog mama and I am missing the companionship. All of my friends say I am their go to Dog Walker and Dog Sitter 🐶🐶 when they travel so I figured I would meet more furry friends this way! I run my business and am fully remote so I can be available any day of the week and hours that are convenient for you. I would be happy to come take your pup for a walk during the day or if you need overnight visits, I can bring them to me.
About: I have a flexible schedule! I am willing to work with you to give your dog the best care possible and make life easier for you! Dogs are welcome on furniture for cuddles and comfort. There is plenty of space inside for them to roam AND a patio/backyard area for fresh air. There is also a dog park in the neighborhood for your dog to play with other dogs if you want him/her dog to socialize. Exercising a dog isn’t always important! I have experience training dogs. I have been assisting in training future guide dogs for the past 3 years. I would love to take in your cute pups even if they are not potty trained; I have experience and am willing to help potty train or any other forms of training you would like your pup to continue while you are away. I am also willing to administer any medications your dog needs during his/her stay. I am here to make your life easier and give your dog the best experience possible! I will play, walk, cuddle, and love all fur babies! Dogs of any age (as long as they have some vaccinations), size, and gender are welcome in here!
“Hailee was amazing! This was our first rover experience. Our dogs are quirky but she was incredible with them and they love her. Very responsive and responsible. Will definitely be booking again.”
About: I have had a dog since I was a kid and taken care of friends' dogs too. I love animals and will make your dog my own. I am not doing this to make money (that is why my prices are lower than most) but to teach my daughter responsibility. She loves dogs and all the money is going to her as she is my little assistant. I currently work full-time, but will take your dog on long walks (if desired) and give your little boy/girl lots of love and attention. If needed, I can come home during the day to let your dog out. I have a fenced in yard and a walking trail by my house. Also, lots of room and a kid to take care of and love your pup.
About: Hi! My name is Isabel, and I am a second year veterinary student at the University of Florida. Before veterinary school, I worked as a small, equine, and exotic animal veterinary technician. I have years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and medical needs. With my veterinary background, I am comfortable caring for senior dogs, puppies, and pets with medical needs. I understand that trusting someone with your dog is a big deal, so I do my best to make you and your pet comfortable from the start. Whether your dog is high-energy or prefers the couch, I am happy to adapt to their needs and routines. I also prioritize clear communication and will keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! I am currently working part-time in the mornings, so I have plenty of time to check in on your pets in the afternoons and evenings! I care for pets in their home by prioritizing consistency and individualized care. I know pets feel most secure in their familiar environment, so I do my best to maintain their normal routine (feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, etc). I also take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and needs to make them feel most comfortable. I treat every client’s home with respect by keeping things clean, following all care instructions, and providing regular updates. With my veterinary background, I am also comfortable monitoring for any changes in behavior or wellbeing.

“Anas and Tate are so kind and welcomed my pup Lucy into their home for the weekend so graciously! I was given picture/video updates throughout my time away which made the experience even better. I so appreciate them for being flexible with my schedule affecting pick up/drop off times. I know Lucy loved getting to know Anas and Tate and I would love to book with them again in the future! 😊”
“Ashley H. was absolutely wonderful! From the very beginning, she was communicative, professional, and incredibly caring. It was clear that she genuinely loves animals and takes pride in providing exceptional care. Throughout the stay, Ashley kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. My Rocky B. was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. I really appreciated her attention to detail, reliability, and warm personality. I would highly recommend Ashley H. to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter on Rover. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I not only grew up around dogs, but I’ve worked in animal shelters and a pet resort, where I was responsible for the needs of dogs and cats. I earned 44 hours of volunteer work at the Humane Society in St. Thomas, U.S.V.I., where I gave tours to potential dog owners. I worked at Pet Suites and LifeLine, where I ensured all pets received their food and/or medicine in a timely manner. I have fostered dogs for Angels Among Us and found homes for all of them. I also take an interest in dog training. I’m not a licensed trainer, but I enjoy teaching dogs manners and tricks. I currently work part-time Tuesday through Thursday from 9 AM to 5 PM, which means I have open availability in the mornings, evenings, and full availability on Fridays through Mondays. I’m very organized and plan my schedule carefully to ensure every pet receives the time, care, and consistency they deserve. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with other dog neighbors. There’s a lot of grass surrounding the complex. While at work, I prefer letting dogs roam unless they need to be in a crate.
About: I have been in and out of the animal industry for a few years now. I have worked in a doggy day care, a humane society, a vet’s office and a dog training facility. My animals are my babies and I will treat yours just the same. Pet care is just so natural to my daily life. My pets are all I have so anytime I’m not working, my time is spent with my babies. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly great dane who loves to just run around and be silly. I free feed my girls, but have my dog on a feed schedule.
“Shalom did an amazing job watching my dog, Carti, while I was away for work. From the beginning, she was professional, communicative, and made me feel comfortable leaving him in her care. She sent regular updates and pictures throughout his stay, which gave me peace of mind and reassured me that he was having a great time. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Carti and treated him like one of her own. When I picked him up, he was happy, well cared for, and seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed his time with her. I would absolutely trust Shalom to watch Carti again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Shalom!”
“Danielle is super easy to work with and took great care of Timber during his stay. So happy to have found her! Sometimes life throws a curveball and she seems to be very flexible if schedules need to change a little bit without stressing anyone. She sent several pictures and really seems to know how to "read" animals. I have zero worries while Timber is in her care.”
