Tiffany took very good care of our Doberman Maggie. Communication was great, and she accommodated our early morning pick up. We’re happy we found her on Rover!

Jennifer was wonderful! Moose got to play and go for a car ride. She was very responsive and sent pictures letting us know how he was doing. Would absolutely recommend!

Cameron watched our 2 kitties, Alfie and Joey, when we went to Maine. She did visits morning and night. She did a great job and sent plenty of updates and pictures. The kitties warmed right up to her. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were well taken care of. She is someone who loves cats and can be trusted.

About: I am a reliable and experienced dog walker/sitter who loves spending time with furry friends. I aim to ensure that each dog gets plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention during their walks. My goal is to always show patience, kindness, and attentiveness to the needs of each individual dog. You can trust that your beloved pups are in good hands with me as their dog walker and/or sitter. I have been watching pups for over 7 years and find so much joy in creating connections with fur babies of all kinds. I have two dogs of my own at home, who are my pride & joy, and promise to take care of yours just as I do mine. In addition to loving on fur babies, I work full time in an office Monday - Friday! I am available after 4:30pm every evening and available all weekends. I provide nutritious food, regular exercise, grooming, and affection. Create a safe and comfortable environment, train and socialize, and prioritize their health and well-being above all else.

My cat Fig loved her time with Anj, and I loved knowing she was getting lots of playtime, pets, and her food and water taken care of. Anj sent pictures each time she visited Fig which gave me peace of mind seeing how happy she was, even while I was away for a week.

About: Growing up on a farm my whole life, I've developed a deep love for being outside and caring for animals. There's something incredibly fulfilling about spending time with nature and ensuring that animals are happy and healthy. This passion has been a core part of who I am and continues to bring me joy every day. Pet care fits into my daily routine by taking my dog in the morning with a walk and feeding time, followed by play sessions and check-ins throughout the day. In the afternoons, I take the dog for another walk and spend time grooming or giving them any needed care. Evenings are dedicated to one last walk and ensuring they're settled in comfortably for the night. I prioritize safety and trust by maintaining a clean, secure environment for pets in both my home and my clients' homes. I follow strict protocols to ensure pets are always supervised, properly fed, and given plenty of exercise and affection (with of course safety on walks). I also will communicate regularly with clients to keep them updated and address any concerns.

About: I am a proud mother of a 9yr old son and an 15 yr old daughter.. My daughter is usually at school for most of the day. However, caring for both full time I have come to notice animals stimulate both kids and teach them respect, responsibility and routine. We are excited to em"bark" on this new chapter in life and cant wait to start. Together, I believe all 3 of my family unit would not only love, but sincerely enjoy even the smallest and largest pets while their 'parents' are away or just need some attention. With summer upon us - my schedule (and helping hands) have become more flexible. Currently, I am available every day from 6am to 7pm. Holidays, weekends, and every day that ends in "Y"! With respect to the pet , clients home, and specific care needs, I try to always keep an open mind and heart but keeping respect in the foreground.

About: I currently work and have been working at a Vet clinic for about 6 years now. I’ve been pet sitting even longer, about 8 years! I have experience with dogs, cats, rodents, fish, and birds. I also have experience staying overnight, drop-in visits, giving medications, and dog walking. I currently work part-time at a Vet clinic so I will absolutely have time in between, before, or after my 3-4 hour shifts to let out, feed, play with, or walk with your pets! I have been pet sitting for a while and do well with a pet’s instructions and/or schedules whether specific or not! I also care for the houses by cleaning up any messes and following any care instructions from the owners!

About: I love animals of all kinds. I have had cats and dogs my whole life as well as help watch my neighbors pets while they are gone. Let me take great care of your pet while you're away! My schedule varies, sometimes I travel for work but when I am home I work from home so pet sitting is very flexible and easy for me. I can accomodate last minute bookings also. I have a large yard for pets to get excersice and I live in the country. My son is 12, very responsible and love pets, he is my little helper and would not only help take care of your baby but give them extra love!
