Graham and his family took such good care of our dogs! My husband had a last minute work trip pop up and I'm in school so finding them was such a relief. It's hard to trust other people with watching your fur babies but they took such good care of ours and I felt so at ease knowing they were in good hands. They sent us photos daily and were so responsive and kind, I highly recommend!

About: I’m an experienced dog lover with an 8-month-old Chihuahua named Molly, so I understand the care and attention dogs need. I’ve worked at Miranda’s Pets and for a dog adventure company, and I’ve also volunteered at the Humane Society, giving me hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I’ve walked and cared for neighbors’ dogs daily, so your furry friend will be in safe, capable hands. I love keeping dogs happy, comfortable, and well-cared-for while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! 🐾 I work remotely most of the time during the week, so I am always able to take a break in the day to walk someones pets or drop in and feed the animals. I would not have clients pepsin my own home, I would care for the clients animals as if they were my own and treat the house with respect. I would always make sure I am meeting the animals needs.

About: I grew up on a farm with dogs and cats and horses and birds. I love animals and have trained many dogs throughout my life. I have a big fenced in yard and my 14 year old dog just passed away, crushing my soul. Until I ever feel ok again to get another dog, I thought I could love someone else’s dog while helping them out! I work from home and only leave the house for errands here and there. I spend the majority of my life on my property working and tinkering around. I have a big fenced in yard and no other dog currently on property. I do have a cat wandering around. I can continue to crate train and love on them all day.

Chelsea and her boyfriend, Josh, really helped me out when I was in a tight spot. They are communicative, reliable, and were available on short notice. They took very good care of my dog and he came home happy and healthy. I think my dog really enjoyed playing with their two dogs. I would certainly use their services again.

About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember! I have experience with everything from horses and livestock, to birds, reptiles and fish. I am currently working very part time (3 hours a day) at a Kennel. I am usually always home by 11 am and am only away from home for a very short time. I have a large fenced yard, but will crate or kennel pets while unsupervised for a very short amount of time. I spend a majority of my time at home with my own pets and hanging out in the yard.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, small animals, and hoofed animals, and my experience extends far beyond pet ownership. I hold bachelor’s degrees in biology, psychology, and anthropology. My studies in animal behavior, physiology, and research help me better understand animal body language, behavior, and individual needs. Over the years, I’ve worked with a wide variety of species, including exotic hoofstock and birds in a zoological setting, as well as pigs, goats, and birds through wildlife rescue and animal care work. I also volunteered in an animal shelter environment for approximately three years, where I handled and photographed thousands of dogs to help them find loving homes. Through that experience, I became comfortable working with dogs of all sizes, ages, temperaments, and energy levels. I have experience administering medications and genuinely enjoy caring for senior pets who may need a little extra patience and attention. I’m also passionate about exercise and an active lifestyle and am happy to provide outdoor walks and enrichment for energetic pets. In addition to my animal background, I hold a master’s degree in counseling, which has strengthened my communication skills, patience, and ability to remain calm and attentive in a variety of situations. Whether your pet is outgoing, shy, energetic, or senior, my goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care tailored to their individual personality and routine so both you and your pet feel comfortable and at ease. I’m a small business owner and public school teacher, which gives me a structured yet flexible schedule that works well for pet care. I generally have the most availability on weekends, school holidays, and breaks—especially during the summer months—when I can provide extended, consistent care and house sitting. During the school year, I’m typically available in the mornings and evenings on weekdays, with greater flexibility on weekends. I’m always happy to discuss specific dates and needs to see what works best for your pet’s routine. I value consistency, communication, and reliability so that pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for, and owners can enjoy peace of mind while they’re away. I provide pet care in my clients’ homes, where I focus on maintaining each pet’s normal routine in the environment where they feel most comfortable. I follow all care instructions closely and make sure feeding, walks, medication, and daily routines are completed on time and as directed. I treat every home with a high level of respect and care, keeping spaces clean, organized, and exactly as I found them. I’m mindful of both the pet’s needs and the owner’s home, and I prioritize reliability, safety, and consistency in every visit or stay. I also believe clear communication is essential, so I provide updates as needed to give owners peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of cats pretty much my whole life between childhood/family pets and helping neighbors. Now in my adulthood I’ve become obsessed with my own two cats, both of which I’ve had since they were kittens (mom & son combo) and they’ve taught me a LOT over the years but most importantly is what unconditional love means. Kitties are just sweet little creatures who each have their own personalities just like humans and I feel it’s important to honor that for all furry friends whether they’re my own or not.

Molly came highly recommended from our usual sitter who was not available during our wedding weekend. Molly had excellent communication leading up to the meet and greet. She truly loves animals and we bonded over our compassion for senior rescues. She took wonderful care of our senior cat while we were away. It was such a relief to know she was in such great hands during a high stress (but exciting!) time in our lives. We will definitely be using Molly again the future!

Tuesday October 3, 2023 was Bambi Girl first Doggy Day Care and it looks like she was shy getting to know her fury friends like Chief. The Grahams was very friendly and today October 5, 2023 is Bambi’s 2nd day to her doggy day care. Picked her up and she was full of energy and she slept throughout the drive. Bambi will definitely be an ongoing client to the Grahams (Rover.com) I would definitely recommend them to others for their fury baby . ?

About: I’ve dog walked and dog sat for over a year and on and off for about 5 years. I’ve always loved being around animals, I grew up in a dog family and have always enjoyed walking dogs playing with them or sitting on the couch and snuggling with dogs. They’re truly happiness and every dog I’ve ever met has always put a smile on my face. As of right now I currently work part time so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your dogs. Do any days of the week work I’m a trustworthy and reliable person and will prioritize spending time with your animals making sure they’re happy and safe. I can only stay at a clients house as I can’t bring any pets to my place as I’m renting.

Aaliyah was amazing with my pup! I had a last minute schedule change, and she came through and saved the day! We were able to book two walks with her and I know my puppy absolutely loved her because he looked so happy in the photos she so kindly sent over. I also appreciated the detailed summary of the walk in the Rover card, it put me at ease to know my puppy was in good hands. I would absolutely recommend her for your fur baby’s needs, and we will definitely be booking her again soon!

About: I am an active, dog-lover that would be so excited to get to know your sweet pup! I love taking dogs for walks and going out and exploring the neighborhoods (and dog parks!) around me. They will get endless amount of love and attention while in my care! I currently work remotely, so I am able to stay home for most of the day with your furry friend. Please reach out and let me know if you are in need of a dog-loving sitter! I work from home Monday-Friday and have a 5-1pm schedule. Within that timeframe, my work is pretty flexible so I will often play with the pups on breaks/lunches. I go on walks every evening between 1-4pm, usually 3+ miles. I am not able to offer stays at my own home at this time, but would love to help out and house sit or come stop by to take your sweet pup for a walk! I like to understand each individual dogs needs, so please don’t hesitate to let me know if there are any specific requests for activities/enrichment for your dog.

About: From having a pet dog, to dogsitting and catsitting countless times throughout my life, I’ve learned how to meet the needs of each animal- from puppies & kittens to the elderly of all different shapes and sizes! It’s important to me to make sure they’re getting enough love and care throughout the day. I believe taking care of a pet’s emotional needs is just as important as meeting them physically, so I do my best to make sure they’re staying happy and comfortable while they await the arrival of their parents later on :) My week availability is very open as I’m in between jobs, so I have a lot of free time to dedicate to pet lovin’ on Mondays-Fridays, especially between 9 am to 7 pm. I respect the space and property of others, so I do my best to take care of your pet in whatever way you see best fit, and in a way that respects the home I’m coming into.

Jennifer is fantastic! She goes above and beyond and takes my pup to the beach when I work long shifts. She even hoses her down each time after. Frankie always comes home happy and exhausted. I feel like my pup is in good hands with Jennifer!

About: I have had many special bonds with many kinds of animals & I’ve always given them the love & kindness ALL animals deserve. I love training puppies to become the best doggie they can be! When my Jude was a puppy, I used “tricks-for-treats” method using hand signals & now that Jude lost her hearing she knows her commands only by my hand signals! I have taken care of a handful of elderly dogs and cats whom I know felt very safe and loved my company so much. Whenever I’m with any animal I always feel like I’m making an impact in their life and I shine my light on their beautiful hearts every time. They are my world 🌎 ❤️❤️❤️ Currently, I am open available anytime, day or night, rain or shine! Even last minute I will be available. My doggie approved house is filled with dog beds of all sizes, and dog crates if that’s what they like, & hardwood floor for cooling off. My yard is fenced in and surrounded by a forest of trees. Plenty of play toys and green grass for sunbaths! This is my passion…… I eat, sleep, & take care for animals. I’m very grateful for any furry friend to come into my life. Even if it’s just for a day ❤️ When I’m not busy with pets, I am the voice for the voiceless...I am a very active animal rights activist, I am a member of the Dominion action movement, I am very very passionate about all animals. My dream is to have my own animal sanctuary where every animal will love their life free just as our pets do. I will also find homes for homeless/abused/abandoned animals. My house is dog approved. I have a lot of toys and doggy beds & In my breezeway I have a dog ramp for elderly or injured dogs to use to get into my house.

About: I've had a deep love for animals for as long as I can remember. Since I was 13, I’ve been watching pets for family and friends simply because it brought me joy. By 16, once I could drive, I started offering my services to others. I have experience caring for a wide range of animals, including senior dogs, puppies, birds, cats, kittens, and even farm animals! I'm always respectful of your home and happy to care for your garden or plants while you're away. If your pet stays with me, please note that I have a small, senior female dog named Peanut. I also live with my mother, brother, and boyfriend, who all share my love for animals and will likely want to shower your pet with affection too! You can expect plenty of updates and photos (I want those pictures as much as you do!) I also have some experience in dog training, having taken several courses, and can assist with behavioral training if needed. While I can't guarantee a drastic change, I love practicing these techniques. Working from home gives me a flexible schedule, so I’m excited to get to know your adorable animals and provide them with the best care possible! I work from home on various online projects, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive care for your pets. Watching your dogs brings me joy and keeps me balanced! When I care for pets in your home, I prioritize maintaining their regular routines to ensure they feel secure and comfortable. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise, always following your specific instructions. I do not have a fenced in yard, but am happy to stay outside with your pup if needed! I’m diligent about home security, making sure doors and gates are securely closed. I also keep a close eye on your pets’ behavior and health, addressing any concerns promptly. Trust is essential, so I maintain open communication with you, providing regular updates and photos. This transparency helps build a strong bond of trust and ensures you have peace of mind while you’re away.

Graham and his family took such good care of our dogs! My husband had a last minute work trip pop up and I'm in school so finding them was such a relief. It's hard to trust other people with watching your fur babies but they took such good care of ours and I felt so at ease knowing they were in good hands. They sent us photos daily and were so responsive and kind, I highly recommend!

About: I grew up on a farm with dogs and cats and horses and birds. I love animals and have trained many dogs throughout my life. I have a big fenced in yard and my 14 year old dog just passed away, crushing my soul. Until I ever feel ok again to get another dog, I thought I could love someone else’s dog while helping them out! I work from home and only leave the house for errands here and there. I spend the majority of my life on my property working and tinkering around. I have a big fenced in yard and no other dog currently on property. I do have a cat wandering around. I can continue to crate train and love on them all day.

Chelsea and her boyfriend, Josh, really helped me out when I was in a tight spot. They are communicative, reliable, and were available on short notice. They took very good care of my dog and he came home happy and healthy. I think my dog really enjoyed playing with their two dogs. I would certainly use their services again.

About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember! I have experience with everything from horses and livestock, to birds, reptiles and fish. I am currently working very part time (3 hours a day) at a Kennel. I am usually always home by 11 am and am only away from home for a very short time. I have a large fenced yard, but will crate or kennel pets while unsupervised for a very short amount of time. I spend a majority of my time at home with my own pets and hanging out in the yard.
