Barbora took very good care of our dog, Fred! He’s often hesitant in new environments, and she kept me up to date on how he was doing and sent pictures too. Thanks for taking great care of him!!

This was our first time using Rover, so we were not too sure what to expect, but Christina was great to communicate with and was flexible to accommodate our schedule changes . She sent us pictures and updates everyday of our Remi girl playing with other dogs or being cozy inside. Very thankful that Remi enjoyed her time with Christina, and we will be looking to use Christina's services in the future!

About: Hi, thank you so much for stopping by to read through my profile. I have loved and taken care of friend’s and family’s dogs for years. Big, small, medium, even tempered, wild, mellow- I absolutely love them all. I have a 12 year old lab, who has slowed down a lot. She is my everything. I find something about raising a dog from a young pup to an aging one, so very special and rewarding. If your dog is fast paced or likes to smell every blade of grass, I’m game. Rain, shine, or snow, I’m available. I’d absolutely appreciate it if you gave me the opportunity to spoil your dog, not just walk or watch. I understand these are your babies. My house is set up well with a fenced in back yard and lots of attention and love offered. Let me know what questions or concerns you might have! I work Monday-Friday, I am usually free in the evenings and off on Thursdays typically. I’m free on most holidays(so keep that in mind).** I am free on most weekends. ** My job is flexible, 12 mins away, making it easy to drop by my house throughout the day. My house is open and I have a great fenced in area. Your dog will be spoiled rotten over here. Lots of pets and attention. I also know how important a walk is to a dog, it’s the highlight of their day! We’d make the most of it.

This was my first time leaving Lou with a babysitter and I was nervous. Sarah made me and my girl both feel very comfortable at drop off. I received pictures while I was out of town so that I could see how well she was doing. Sarah was very attentive to Lou’s needs as an elderly dog with anxiety. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of my baby.

We had a great experience leaving our Aussidoodle, Willie, with Cynthia and her sweet lab, Luna. I received numerous pictures and was happy to know Willie had a very large, fenced in yard for roaming and exercise. Cynthia treated Willie like her own and gave positive feedback about his stay. I won't hesitate to request Cynthia for future boarding.

Erin was great. If you don't believe me, just ask our beagle, Bailey. All of the many photos and videos that she sent were one of the highlights of our vacation. It made us feel relaxed to see Bailey so happy to be playing with Erin's dog--they both had a wonderful time. We will certainly have Erin watch Bailey again.

About: I grew up with cats and have experience caring for cats of different ages and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and giving them plenty of attention, or space if that’s what they prefer! I know cats can be particular about their routines, so I’m happy to follow your instructions and keep things as familiar and comfortable as possible while you’re away.

About: Some see them as animals, I see them as little people... whom deserves to be loved and cared for properly. I am dedicated and trust worthy. SAFETY is my number one priority when it comes to your pet. I am a Welder by trade and its currently too hot outside for my career, so I'll have lots of time for your pet till the fall when it cools down. I have two very friendly children in my home, ages 17 and 7. We have lots of room in our home and a big back yard which includes chickens. The chickens stay inside their chicken run, they don't like dogs or cats anyway. My schedule is pretty open right now, so just let me know when you would like services, and I'll let you know if I'm available. We currently have chickens and one mixed breed dog named "Charlie" who loves all dogs, cats and even the chickens. Your pet would have our undivided attention! We absolutely love dogs and cats.

About: I have had my own pets since I was a young child. I have taken care of many of my friends, family, neighbors, and church members pets over the years. I love dogs and kitties and believe they deserve to be well taken care of. They depend on us to be good to them and are at our mercy. If they are mistreated they can't say anything. This makes it that much more important to be good to our pets. I am not currently working so I have a lot of free time. I have 6 grown children who are on thier own. Two in college, the rest with their own families. I have one friendly lab mix who loves playmates. A fenced in yard, doggie door, and all hardwood floors so accidents are not tragic! I am within walking distance of our city bike/walking trail for long doggie walks.

About: I have cared for a wide variety of pets from slippery and slimy to cuddly and soft. I currently work with a diverse group of animals every day as the education coordinator at Treehouse Wildlife Center. I Have pet sat for friends and neighbors since I was 12 and love the opportunity to make new animal acquaintances. I understand not all animals are perfect and can have varying levels of temperament and care. I am ready for anything, as I understand all pets deserve the best love and care regardless. Work full time 7-5 available weekends and evenings primarily but can make exceptions due to flexibility in my current position. Let me know if you have any questions. I have two dogs, a parrot, a hedgehog, and a few aquariums. I know my pets are cared for by the people I live with like they are their own, whenever I am gone. I plan to do the same as a sitter as I know how it can feel to be unsure to leave your pets while your away. Unfortunately we can’t always take our fuzzy friends where ever we go, no matter how much we love them.

We both (my furbaby and myself) absolutely adore Christina! We go twice a week and my pup is so excited when I say “wanna go to day care?” She is exhausted when I pick her up! I love that Christina takes pictures so I get to see my girl in action and the other doggies she is playing with. I also truly appreciate the advice and feedback she offers.

About: I am a very responsible dog owner. I have a 5 year old Border Collie named Abby. She loves herding & long walks. I have had over 20 years experience taking care of my own and others pets. I work from home so am available throughout the week Monday - Sunday, my schedule is flexible so I'm able to help out just about anytime. Abby & I enjoy running, walking around the neighborhood and going to our nearest dog park which is 2 blocks away. I have experience taking care of older dogs, a blind dog, and smaller dogs, so I can adapt to whatever needs your dog may have. I would love to get to know you and your furbaby. They will be treated like my own.

About: I have always grown up with pets in my life and love learning all about the different breeds and personalities a dog can have! I love spending time with animals and find that the best parts of my day involve playtime and cuddle time with my pup! I have a large backyard where your dog can play and get their zoomies out along with a dog pool for the warmer days! I have a quiet and calming area in my home for your dog to take a break or a nice long nap as desired. My flexible work from home schedule always ensure that a potty break or midday walk is never missed! When your dog is in my care, they will be loved just like my own! I currently work from home and make my own schedule. I am always available for any pet care that’s needed, including potty breaks, a quick treat, or just to give some belly rubs! Since I work for my laptop, I can work from any part of the house which includes being outside while your dog plays and soaks up the sun. During the weekends, I spend my time playing with my dog, going to the dog park, or cuddling on the couch. If this sounds like something, your dog would enjoy, they would fit right in! I have a partially fenced in backyard with only one side of the yard not being fully fenced. I have a yard steak that can be put in the ground that extends throughout most of the yard so that your dog can feel just as free as if the yard was completely fenced. When my dog is outside, I am either outside with her or watching her from the big windows in my home that face the backyard to always make sure she’s being safe. During the day, the doors are always closed and treats are always put up to avoid any overindulgence or escaping the home when I am unaware.

This makes it that much more important to be good to our pets. I am not currently working so I have a lot of free time. I have 6 grown children who are on thier own. Two in college, the rest with their own families. I have one friendly lab mix who loves playmates. A fenced in yard, doggie door, and all hardwood floors so accidents are not tragic! I am within walking distance of our city bike/walking trail for long doggie walks.

About: I've been caring for animals since I was a kid. It’s always been a passion of mine! Over the years, I’ve puppy-sat, dog-sat (up to six dogs at once for one owner!), cat-sat, and even farm-sat a few times. I treat every animal like they're my own. My pets are truly my babies, and my friends lovingly call me “extra” when it comes to how much I dote on them. I even tried to save a baby mouse once, I really do care about every animal I meet! I work in education, which means I have summers, holidays, and Christmas breaks off. I rarely travel because I prefer to stay home with my fur children, so I’m usually available year-round. Availability: Summer (June–Early August): Available daily, any time School Year (Mid August–May): Monday–Friday, Before 6:30 AM & after 5 PM Saturday & Sunday: Usually available all day Holidays & School Breaks: Available all day Pet Care Details: Dogs: I have a small fenced yard, but I also walk my three dogs on leashes twice a day. They’re crate trained, but your dog doesn’t need to be. I’m happy to take your pup(s) to the local dog park if they enjoy that, and I offer as much walking as they need! Cats: While I don’t board cats in my home, I offer drop-in visits. I can feed, brush, play, and snuggle with them, whatever makes them feel most comfortable. I currently work only during the school year. So, most holidays, and summers I am off. Most weekends I am available. During the work week I am available before 6:30 am, and after 4:00 pm. At this time I currently only board small animals once I meet them to approve they can get along with my two small dogs. While I am in your home I treat your animals, and house with the utmost care, and respect.

About: I have had pets literally my entire life. Dogs, cats, horses, and other small animals. I am patient, kind, loving, and know how to bond quickly with them. I truly enjoy the company of dogs especially and they always sense that and enjoy being with me as well. I have significant flexibility in my schedule. I can easily make the loving care of your pet my priority. I focus on Thursdays through Sunday/Monday for those quick weekend trips. I live in a small, senior park with lots of grass, a new, fenced dog park, and paved roads just in case your well-loved dog(s) may have grass or sand sensitivity. I have lots of time to devote to your dog. I can walk them, take them on golf cart rides, or give them time to play in the dog park.

I am in charge of feeding them, taking them outside, and bathing them, when necessary. I am tentatively planning to reapply for my summer retail job, so my schedule may vary. My summer break will begin soon, so I will not be working immediately, so I will have plenty of time every day for pet care. My family has a fenced yard with plenty of space for a dog to run around. We also have two Labrador retrievers who love to play with other dogs.

I have two very friendly children in my home, ages 17 and 7. We have lots of room in our home and a big back yard which includes chickens. The chickens stay inside their chicken run, they don't like dogs or cats anyway. My schedule is pretty open right now, so just let me know when you would like services, and I'll let you know if I'm available. We currently have chickens and one mixed breed dog named "Charlie" who loves all dogs, cats and even the chickens. Your pet would have our undivided attention! We absolutely love dogs and cats.

About: I have 14 years of dog handling experience. I have participated in my local 4-H dog care and training group for 10 years and local FFA ( Future Farmers of America) chapter for 4 years. Between 4-H and FFA, I have received many awards for my dedication for dog care. Within the years, I have interacted with different temperaments from reactive to calm. I am currently working towards a degree in Animal Health. I currently have an internship at a local farm. I have a weekly routine set up, that does not interfere with my internship; and your dog is able to have the best experience. Taking care of pets require routine, animals thrive with the stability a routine provides. Pets also need enrichment, which can be play sessions, clean areas, attention, and walks. A pet- proof home helps with safety and well- being of the pet.

I have good experience with crating, leashing, and walking large dogs, and have always done very well. I can easily accommodate to any needs you pet needs in your home, or on a walk.

Barbora took very good care of our dog, Fred! He’s often hesitant in new environments, and she kept me up to date on how he was doing and sent pictures too. Thanks for taking great care of him!!

Our pup did great at Mandi’s! I didn’t have to worry at all because she sent pictures of his day and an update of what he did. She was so sweet to send him home with a personalized bandana and a jar of homemade treats! Definitely recommend!

This was our first time using Rover, so we were not too sure what to expect, but Christina was great to communicate with and was flexible to accommodate our schedule changes . She sent us pictures and updates everyday of our Remi girl playing with other dogs or being cozy inside. Very thankful that Remi enjoyed her time with Christina, and we will be looking to use Christina's services in the future!

About: Hi, thank you so much for stopping by to read through my profile. I have loved and taken care of friend’s and family’s dogs for years. Big, small, medium, even tempered, wild, mellow- I absolutely love them all. I have a 12 year old lab, who has slowed down a lot. She is my everything. I find something about raising a dog from a young pup to an aging one, so very special and rewarding. If your dog is fast paced or likes to smell every blade of grass, I’m game. Rain, shine, or snow, I’m available. I’d absolutely appreciate it if you gave me the opportunity to spoil your dog, not just walk or watch. I understand these are your babies. My house is set up well with a fenced in back yard and lots of attention and love offered. Let me know what questions or concerns you might have! I work Monday-Friday, I am usually free in the evenings and off on Thursdays typically. I’m free on most holidays(so keep that in mind).** I am free on most weekends. ** My job is flexible, 12 mins away, making it easy to drop by my house throughout the day. My house is open and I have a great fenced in area. Your dog will be spoiled rotten over here. Lots of pets and attention. I also know how important a walk is to a dog, it’s the highlight of their day! We’d make the most of it.

This was my first time leaving Lou with a babysitter and I was nervous. Sarah made me and my girl both feel very comfortable at drop off. I received pictures while I was out of town so that I could see how well she was doing. Sarah was very attentive to Lou’s needs as an elderly dog with anxiety. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of my baby.

Adela was awesome! She took great care of my dog Ellie for a few days. She was extremely welcoming and answered any questions I had prior to Ellie’s stay.Her communication skills were on point as well. She put my mind at ease each day by sending updates and lots of pictures :) I think it’s safe to say that my dog really enjoyed her stay. We will def book again with her in the future.

We had a great experience leaving our Aussidoodle, Willie, with Cynthia and her sweet lab, Luna. I received numerous pictures and was happy to know Willie had a very large, fenced in yard for roaming and exercise. Cynthia treated Willie like her own and gave positive feedback about his stay. I won't hesitate to request Cynthia for future boarding.

Erin was great. If you don't believe me, just ask our beagle, Bailey. All of the many photos and videos that she sent were one of the highlights of our vacation. It made us feel relaxed to see Bailey so happy to be playing with Erin's dog--they both had a wonderful time. We will certainly have Erin watch Bailey again.

Ashley and her family were such good hosts for my doodle, Herman. He is a 1.5 year old big baby. It was evident in the photos and correspondence while I was away that he was getting all the attention he was used to—and more! Ashley was very responsive throughout Herman’s 6 night stay. I highly recommend letting her watch and care for your fur-baby too!
