“Danielle was awesome! There were a lot of twists and turns to our weekend and she was very flexible and accommodating. I’ll use her again for sure. Thanks, Danielle!”
“There are not enough kind things I can say about Jackie, she took incredible care of my fur baby. My mom unexpectedly passed away and I needed to leave town on very short notice for a week. I had never used Rover before or boarded her for more than one night in the 10 years I’ve had her. I had extreme anxiety about leaving her with someone else, especially during such a vulnerable time. Jackie took the best care of her, and when I say best, I truly mean the best! Nala also has anxiety when away from me and in only one day being away I was getting pictures of her with a huge smile on her face! Jackie and her family treated Nala like she was apart of their family, and gave her lots of cuddle time too 🥰. They knew she was anxious too and did everything they could to make her comfortable. Jackie constantly stayed in contact with me with messages on how she was doing and lots of photos and videos. In 10 years, Jackie was the first person I trusted with my baby and I’m so happy I did. It allowed me to take the time I needed and gave me the piece of mind knowing my baby was being cared for as best as possible. I feel so grateful to have found her, I never would have been able to get out of town if I hadn’t. I couldn’t recommend her more if you’re looking for someone who takes just as good of care of your fur baby as you do ❤️.”
“Gavin was very patient , kind and understanding of my crazy schedule for this weekend and also my first time pet parent anxiety, and my dog loved being in his carelol I would gladly book with him again!”
“Jackie is the best! We felt so confident leaving our Maddie with Jackie and her family. Jackie sent us pictures everyday and I could see Maddie was having a great time and was well taken care of. This family loves dogs and it shows. We would use Jackie again in a heart beat!”
About: Hello! We absolutely love all dogs. We have a beautiful 4 year old Weimaraner who we came into our life as a pup. We also have had two prior to her. We are comfortable with all aged dogs from the feisty puppies to the more quiet seniors. We have lots of experience with young puppies, senior dogs who need medication (oral pills or otherwise), and shy or energetic dogs. Linda even worked as a Vet Tech in high school and was a dog walker in college. We both are retired and love to sit outside with our dog and go for walks. As a visitor to our home, we are open to whatever method you employ for your dog’s safety. We have experience with crate training and are happy to continue those practices if you wish. Otherwise, your dog is free to roam our fenced yard and home. We are both retired, so have lots of time for your pup. Our dog always gets to go out whenever she wants. So will yours. We usually walk our dog in the morning afternoon and evening. If your dog is up to that, we will have her join us. We have a fenced in yard for the dogs to enjoy whenever they want. Our house is very dog friendly. Our dogs are allowed on the furniture. We do not leave any food out and have a dog proof garbage can too.
“Great hosts and couple! They took Dexter in on such short notice with welcoming Arms. Definitely going to reach out to them in the future when we’re out of town. Thank you so much!”
“This was our first rover experience- our two dogs stayed with Maria and her family for about 4 days.Maria was happy to do a meet and greet before hand a couple months prior. The day we were dropping the dogs off my female who hasn’t been spayed yet started her menstrual cycle, I was so worried we were going to have to cancel our flights because I totally wouldn’t blame Maria if they didn’t want to keep her while she was wearing a diaper. But Maria was happy to still take both pups for the weekend and I am so thankful. My lab is a high energy gal and did great. We got pictures and updates multiple times a day of their walks and playing in the back yard. They seem happy and content after their stay with Maria and I cannot recommend her more. We have another stay booked with her already. So thankful to find someone to leave my pups with who we trust and can feel at ease leaving them with.”
About: I started dog sittng in college for my professors and quickly grew to love it. I've gained experience walking, feeding, and caring for dogs, and I bring these skills to my own pets as well. I'm excited to provide the same care and attention to your dog while you're away. I work from home, so my schedule is flexible and I can accomodate your need. I also offer pickup and drop-off services for a small fee. I have a fenced yard providing a secured space for your dog to play and relax. I also have a senior male Australian Shedperd who loves to play with other dogs, so your pet will have a friendly companion during the stay.
“Clark loves staying at Jeannie’s house. He has been a repeat customer. He loves her big backyard and being able to play all day. We get pictures throughout his stay as well. She’s very responsive and easy to communicate with. Feels like family!”
“We just want to say thank you to Molly she was really a great pick for our Australian Shepard named auggie he has separation anxiety really bad and Molly did all that she could to make him feel at home we are very thankful we found her to make our vacation a lot enjoyable knowing auggie was in good hands thanks Molly”
“I feel so lucky to have found niratcha as a dog sitter for my big baby lab she took great care of him She sent pics and updates daily, and our boy came home exhausted and happy. We're so grateful to have found someone who truly cares for our boy the way we do! VERIFIED!”
“Second time using Robynn with our two dogs. They enjoyed their week with her! She communicates great and is always sending videos and photos of the fun their having!”
“Jacqueline and Uriel were both amazing! They gave me hourly updates with photos and helped me stay at ease since it was my first time leaving my pup with anyone. They spent a lot of quality time with him teaching him tricks, taking him out every hour, and making sure my little guy was well taken care of. I can’t say enough good things about them both and I am so grateful I found them! I would def recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable sitter! 10/10 🙏”
“Great dog boarder! Our dog typically gets stressed being away from home, but he had a great time & came home happy as could be 😊 She provided updates & photos throughout his stay too.”
“Shauna and Peter took such wonderful care of our dog Gracie. Not only did they follow our instructions for her basic care, such as food, medications, daily walks and play, but the whole family gave her so much love and attention. She is a very affectionate dog and they treated her as if she was their own. We were on a long trip overseas and Shauna’s daily communication and photos gave us such a peace of mind that our sweet pup was doing just fine. We feel so blessed to have found them and can not thank them enough for the perfect care they gave Gracie! We highly recommend Shauna and Peter to care for your dog. They are the best!”
“This was the first time we have used a sitter for our pup outside of family or close friends, and Ashley and her family were simply wonderful. She provided daily updates, fun photos and videos, and gave me comfort that our pup was happy and well cared for. I would highly recommend Ashley, and we will be return visitors!”
“My pup seemed to be having a lot of fun in the updates provided very often. Selena was very accommodating and I felt safe leaving my dog with her because I know she’d care for her like her own.”
“Stephanie was absolutely who we needed for our first time using Rover for our two dogs. A little apprehensive, but completely reassured within two minutes of meeting Stephanie and knowing our boys would be in great hands. We received multiple pictures and updates while we were away. If we need a dog sitter in the future, Stephanie is who we hope to use again!”
“Penny looked after Ginger as a trial night before we go on a longer trip this summer. I could tell Ginger had a blast and Penny is very caring with the dogs. I’m not concerned with leaving my pup with Penny when I have to be gone this summer. Thank you Penny and Ginger and I will see you again soon!”

“Erika has been amazing to work with. She is so kind and such caring nature that I felt comfortable with her the moment I met her. She took great care of both my cats. Her detailed updates and pictures made my day everytime I got those. She was thorough with all the tasks and did some extra clean up which I am truly grateful for. Can’t wait to book her again!”
“Stephanie did an excellent job with my two cats, Charlie and Punkin. She gave Punkin her meds every day, and I got a great photo and update on the cats each day we were away! Stephanie has a bright, friendly personality - my cats seemed to really like her. She was meticulous in making sure they got fed, watered, and petted. I am so grateful to have had Stephanie to sit for me during my trip away from home! *Highly recommend*”
“Nicole was the best!! It was our first time leaving our cat at home alone and we were so worried about him being lonely. She gave him so much love and care and always went above and beyond with check ins, sending photos and keeping us up to date on his well being. Would 100% use her again, it’s very clear she cares about animals and their people.”
“This was my first time using Rover as a client. This was my first time using Sarah. Sarah did a great job of taking care of everything. She had a lot of items to check for functionality. Sarah did an exceptional job in dealing with my daily changes that occurred as I had to find the perfect routine for my outdoor cats. Some things went off line but she went with the flow and was able to transition nicely with the issues. I hope she will sit for me again if asked”
“Another great visit with Kassandra! The cats love her, she spends time to pet and play with them, in addition she goes above and beyond, vacuuming, cleaning up, taking out the trash, and any special requests. She is responsible and 100% trustworthy. So glad I found her on Rover! As always, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!”
About: With over 12 years of experience, I've cared for multiple dogs, trained two, and consistently follow routines. I enjoy walking dogs and ensuring they’re happy, healthy, and well-fed. I’ve also cared for my uncle’s dogs and picked up many effective training techniques along the way. I'm reliable, patient, and passionate about giving every dog the attention and structure they need. I currently don’t have another job, so my schedule is completely open and flexible. I’m available any day, any time, including mornings, evenings, and weekends. Whether it’s a last-minute request or a regular routine, I’m happy to adjust to what works best for you and your dog’s needs. My open availability means you can always count on me. I always follow the feeding and walking schedules provided by clients to ensure each dog’s routine stays consistent and comfortable. Most clients leave a list or specific details, and I make sure to stick to them closely. In between scheduled tasks, I spend quality time playing with the dogs, giving them attention, or simply keeping them company so they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you're away.
“Megan was absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond in caring for our cats and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She was communicative, thoughtful, and clearly cared about making sure everything was perfect. It's obvious she genuinely loves animals, and they loved her right back. We came home to happy cats and a well-cared-for home, which means the world to us. I wouldn't hesitate to book Megan again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and exceptional sitter. Thank you, Megan, for everything!”
“Don did a drop-in for us while we were at Paramount for the evening. He communicated during the booking process, asked great questions so as to ensure things went smoothly, and sent both photos and a post-visit note. Highly recommend him!”
“Jessica was the perfect person to check in on my cat. First, she responded quickly and courteously to all my communications. Second, she took wonderful care of Bruce following all the instructions I left. She completed the checks on time and created nice reports with pictures and descriptions of how Bruce was doing. My mind was at ease and I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing Jessica was taking care of Bruce…definitely recommend booking her services!”
“Jazz is caring and professional! She accomdated all our requests, communicated well, and Lia loved her drop-in visits. You can trust your pet will be well cared for and your home respected - don't hesitate to book!”
“Service was great! She was very communicative and kept us up to date. We totally forgot to tell her our contractor was coming one of the days and she was proactive in calling us to make sure he was who he said he was. Would definitely use Goka & fam again! Thank you so much for taking care of our 3 cats. We were able to go on our trip stress free knowing our cats were being well taken care of. Thank you!”

“It was our first time using a sitter for our puppy so we were understandably nervous, but Danielle was great! She met with us ahead of time and our dog got a chance to play with her adorable puppy.

About: Hi! We’re new to Rover and excited to have your dog in our home! We’re a responsible and caring couple who love dogs and enjoy providing loving care. We have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes—from puppies to senior dogs who need a gentler pace, and from small breeds to large dogs. With two of us, your dog gets extra attention, supervision, and affection. We’re happy to accommodate routines, walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and plenty of cuddles. We prioritize safety, consistency, and making sure your dog feels comfortable and at home while you’re away. We treat every dog like our own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup is in great hands. We are always busy with our own two dogs and cat, and someone is always home for food and bathroom breaks. We love having dogs hangout with us or let them do their own thing We have two dogs of our own who love to enjoy the big yard and chewing on twigs. Your dog will not be bored with us
“Thank you soooo much for taking him for the day! He is tired out and happy! Thank you for al the updates of photos and videos I will deff be bringing him back so he can play again! Thanks so much guys I highly recommend her!! Very great!”
“Liz was more than great! This was our first time using a sitter for our senior dog. Ollie loved it! Liz took great care of him and kept me updated. I would highly recommend!”
“Mary was absolutely excellent! We have a 9 week old PWD mix breed named Chase and we were nervous to leave our pup baby with a puppy sitter. However, Mary sent pictures, never put him in a crate, took him out often for potty and snuggled him! She's wonderful and Chase will be visiting her weekly while I'm at work. Thank you Mary!!”
“Jackie was phenomenal. I reached out pretty last minute with a request that wasn’t exactly simple—she had to pick Ghost up from his training facility (not from me) and coordinate all of that seamlessly. On top of that, she even helped me sort out a small payment detail on Rover to make sure everything reflected correctly, which she absolutely didn’t have to do. She was super responsive, easy to work with, and just handled everything without friction. And the best part—Ghost lit up the second he saw her again after a few months, which tells you everything you need to know. Somehow she manages all of this while caring for multiple dogs at once and raising a young family, which honestly makes it even more impressive. Highly recommend giving Jackie a shot.”
“Stephanie is absolutely wonderful, and I felt completely safe leaving my precious pup with her for the weekend! We are so grateful to have found such a great Rover fit with her! Thank you Stephanie :)”
About: As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I have a male Chihuahua-Terrier mix who stays with me part-time and gets along well with other dogs. I am the go-to pet sitter for friends and family, because my goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, indoor or outdoor play sessions, or relaxing with lots of cuddles, I’ll tailor their care to their unique personality and routine. I also have experience taking care of senior dogs and am comfortable administering medication, preparing special diets, and providing extra care and attention. I love having dogs around and would be delighted to welcome your pet into my home. For everyone’s comfort and safety, I ask that dogs be friendly around children, adults, and other dogs. Meet and greets—virtual or in person—are required before booking so we can make sure it’s a great fit for everyone. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member! I work a flexible hybrid schedule, with three days per week at home and my office is close enough to come home midday on office days for walks and all your pet’s needs. I live in a spacious townhome and do not have a fenced yard, but if your dog enjoys leashed walks and outdoor playtime, I have easy access to open outdoor spaces, parks, and nature trails. In my home, dogs are a part of the family and welcome to make themselves comfortable just as they would in your home. They are welcome to relax on the couch, snooze on the bed, or use their own bed or crate if that’s most comfortable. I want your dog (and you) to feel relaxed and safe until your return.
About: Hello! I can't wait to meet you and your furry friend! I have been caring for animals my whole life, including my own pets and also dogs I foster for a local rescue. I would love to care for your furry family member as well. As a Type-A personality and a mother of 3 humans and 3 dogs, I am very organized, reliable, detail-oriented, caring, and trustworthy. I work from home part-time in the photography industry and would love to help you add to the adorable photos of your pet while they are in my care, if you would like! I have a Masters Degree in Higher Education and a Bachelors in Entrepreneurship, both at Illinois State University. I did my business plan on a doggy day care and when I was a kid I wanted to be a vet, so as you can see...caring for animals has been in my blood from a young age! Several of my animals have had special needs or are prone to injury, so I have LOTS of experience in that regard. My vet can vouch for the fact that I would make a great vet tech. Blood and other bodily fluids do not phase me and I am cool as a cucumber under pressure (I've dealt with two dogs with broken legs, two dog strokes, cancer, many a laceration, a diabetic cat, and a dog with no eyes.) I also have fostered several puppies and love their puppy breath! Happy to help care for the youngest of your pets as well. I work from home part-time during typical business hours and cart my kids to and from their activities. My spare time is spent caring for your furry friends! Whether I am coming into your home or your pets are coming into mine, your pets and property will be treated with the utmost care and consideration. I will provide the excellent service I expect for pet sitters for my own family dogs and nothing less. Safety and security are also top of mind and, with my high attention to detail, nothing will be missed. Pets in my home will be treated like family. We have 2 retired racing greyhounds who are loving, calm, and kind, as well as a foster-fail super mutt who loves to play and keep our house safe from chipmunks and mail carriers. I have three kids (12, 10, and 7) who all have extensive experience with dogs and who will help me respectfully love on your pet while you are away. We have a LARGE fenced in yard with lots of little critters to sniff after and plenty of room to run. We live in a pet-friendly cul-du-sac with several dogs and chickens next door.
About: I’ve had pets since I was a kid. I have had my own pets as well as taking care of pets for family and friends over the years. We have a dog, and it’s very important for us to have a safe and trusting home for her to stay in while we are out of town. We want to be able to provide that for others. We both work from home full-time, so we are here all day. Your pup will be able to go outside as often as they want. We can accommodate special care or instructions as you need. We have one dog in the home. She is very friendly and loves other dogs. We only board for one family at a time, but if you have multiple dogs, we are happy to take them. We have a two-story house with a basement. Ample space to accommodate your pup(s). We also have built-in gates throughout the house if they need their own space. We have a very large fenced in yard for them to play in. We are also very near many Dog parks and nature parks where we can take long walks if desired. Pets are welcome on any furniture and in the beds, so they can be as comfortable as they like. We have a very pet friendly home. Let us know how we can make their stay more comfortable.
About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, so I’m very comfortable handling a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and routines. I focus on creating a calm, consistent environment where dogs feel safe and understood while their owners are away. I pay close attention to behavior and individual needs, making sure each dog is comfortable, well cared for, and sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. What sets me apart is that I’m highly observant and reliable—I treat every dog as an individual and make sure they feel secure and cared for in my home. Hanging out with pets is honestly my favorite part of my the day! I make time for walks, play sessions,and chill time every day-it never feels like work if tails are wagging. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog amd cat. I can accommodate to your needs. I also have a dog park near by. ..
“Cleo had a lot of fun playing with Niratcha’s dogs especially Happy. We did daycare with her for the day and got lots of pictures and amazing communication. Really appreciate all the updates!”
About: Your dog isn’t just a guest - they’re part of the family. I work from home full time which means your pup will rarely be left alone. They’ll have constant supervision, companionship, and plenty of love throughout the day. I have a secured fenced yard for safe outdoor play and a dog-friendly pool that’s available for supervised swim time (if your pup enjoys water). I'm a dedicated dog lover who works from home, which means your furry friend will never be left alone. Whether it's a day of play or an overnight stay, your dog's happiness and safety are my top priorities. My home is a haven for dogs, featuring a spacious fenced yard where they can run and play freely. I also have a dog-friendly pool that's perfect for a supervised splash or a cool dip on a hot day

“Another great week with Nicole taking great care of our pups! Your flexibility and quick responses are so appreciated as we have changes in schedule. Thank you for your great service!”
“Kassandra is marvelous! She's friendly, kind, and very reliable. My dogs adore her! She's been a great help while I've been recovering from surgery; her dog walking has made Birdie and Gracie so much happier and calmer. I would use her services again in a minute!”

About: I grew up around a variety of animals my whole life and I have been caring for others pets since I was 13 years old. I have always loved animals and treat everyone's pets as if they were my own. My senior year of high school I created my senior project around therapy dogs and helping special needs children. I trained my own dog to be a certified therapy dog through the organization known as Pet Partners. The remainder of the project was visiting with special needs children and doing educational activities. We also visited libraries and young children with developing their reading skills. I recently graduated from Purdue University with an Animal Science degree which has allowed me to gain even more knowledge on how to care for people's pets. I also have knowledge of animal CPR and first aid for cats and dogs. I'm looking forward to being apart of this pet care community and providing excellent care to all the pets I encounter.
“With our schedules constantly changing, we needed someone to check-in and walk our dog during the work week. We have a strong 60 lbs.

Overall, we couldn’t be happier with Jenny’s dog services!”
“Goka has been an amazing caretaker for our dog Pochacco. She is very attentive, kind, and communicative when walking our dog and keeping us updated on how he’s doing :) highly recommend.”

About: I’ve owned cats and dogs my whole life! I love both! I also rode horses for many years and have had friends with bunnies and rodents so I have experienced many types of animals I’m a college student! Tuesdays and Thursdays mornings i’m in an elementary school and Wednesday’s I spend my whole day on campus as well as Thursday afternoons. I’m free most of the time ! I don’t board animals due to my own pets. But i adhere to any schedules and routines done in the home. I also respect others property. I always leave the place clean and tidy after staying and make sure to communicate anything necessary.
About: I have grown up with small dogs and large dogs. Between Shih Tzus, Aussies, labs, huskies and more, I have been around them all. I currently have four Aussies in our family home that I care for everyday. They are very energetic dogs so I am always playing with them outside or taking them on walks. As well, I have volunteered at many animal shelters and currently volunteer at my college animals shelter. It has given me lots of experience with dogs of all sizes, needs, energy levels, and comfort levels. As well as time spent socializing with the cats! As a college student who mostly babysits, I am very flexible with my weeks. I have a lot of random availability and free time during the day. As well, if I do work, it is usually during the day so I can stay with your animals over night. I am open to any options of care. With fenced in homes, I am always going to let your fur baby run around and play with them. Though, I love to walk and I know they do too. Walks will always happen even if play happens first!
“Kimberly was amazing with our crazy dog! We just moved and he was a bit anxious, but he loved her! She even offered to sew up one of the things he tore up in his kennel! She is so sweet and kept me informed on how my crazy little boy was doing while I was at work! I will definitely book her again!”

We have lots of experience with young puppies, senior dogs who need medication (oral pills or otherwise), and shy or energetic dogs. Linda even worked as a Vet Tech in high school and was a dog walker in college. We both are retired and love to sit outside with our dog and go for walks. As a visitor to our home, we are open to whatever method you employ for your dog’s safety. We have experience with crate training and are happy to continue those practices if you wish. Otherwise, your dog is free to roam our fenced yard and home. We are both retired, so have lots of time for your pup. Our dog always gets to go out whenever she wants. So will yours. We usually walk our dog in the morning afternoon and evening. If your dog is up to that, we will have her join us. We have a fenced in yard for the dogs to enjoy whenever they want. Our house is very dog friendly. Our dogs are allowed on the furniture. We do not leave any food out and have a dog proof garbage can too.
“Great hosts and couple! They took Dexter in on such short notice with welcoming Arms. Definitely going to reach out to them in the future when we’re out of town. Thank you so much!”
“This was our first rover experience- our two dogs stayed with Maria and her family for about 4 days.Maria was happy to do a meet and greet before hand a couple months prior. The day we were dropping the dogs off my female who hasn’t been spayed yet started her menstrual cycle, I was so worried we were going to have to cancel our flights because I totally wouldn’t blame Maria if they didn’t want to keep her while she was wearing a diaper. But Maria was happy to still take both pups for the weekend and I am so thankful. My lab is a high energy gal and did great. We got pictures and updates multiple times a day of their walks and playing in the back yard. They seem happy and content after their stay with Maria and I cannot recommend her more. We have another stay booked with her already. So thankful to find someone to leave my pups with who we trust and can feel at ease leaving them with.”
“Clark loves staying at Jeannie’s house. He has been a repeat customer. He loves her big backyard and being able to play all day. We get pictures throughout his stay as well. She’s very responsive and easy to communicate with. Feels like family!”
“We just want to say thank you to Molly she was really a great pick for our Australian Shepard named auggie he has separation anxiety really bad and Molly did all that she could to make him feel at home we are very thankful we found her to make our vacation a lot enjoyable knowing auggie was in good hands thanks Molly”
“I feel so lucky to have found niratcha as a dog sitter for my big baby lab she took great care of him She sent pics and updates daily, and our boy came home exhausted and happy. We're so grateful to have found someone who truly cares for our boy the way we do! VERIFIED!”
“Great dog boarder! Our dog typically gets stressed being away from home, but he had a great time & came home happy as could be 😊 She provided updates & photos throughout his stay too.”
“This was the first time we have used a sitter for our pup outside of family or close friends, and Ashley and her family were simply wonderful. She provided daily updates, fun photos and videos, and gave me comfort that our pup was happy and well cared for. I would highly recommend Ashley, and we will be return visitors!”
“My pup seemed to be having a lot of fun in the updates provided very often. Selena was very accommodating and I felt safe leaving my dog with her because I know she’d care for her like her own.”
“Stephanie was absolutely who we needed for our first time using Rover for our two dogs. A little apprehensive, but completely reassured within two minutes of meeting Stephanie and knowing our boys would be in great hands. We received multiple pictures and updates while we were away. If we need a dog sitter in the future, Stephanie is who we hope to use again!”
“Penny looked after Ginger as a trial night before we go on a longer trip this summer. I could tell Ginger had a blast and Penny is very caring with the dogs. I’m not concerned with leaving my pup with Penny when I have to be gone this summer. Thank you Penny and Ginger and I will see you again soon!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I have a male Chihuahua-Terrier mix who stays with me part-time and gets along well with other dogs. I am the go-to pet sitter for friends and family, because my goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, indoor or outdoor play sessions, or relaxing with lots of cuddles, I’ll tailor their care to their unique personality and routine. I also have experience taking care of senior dogs and am comfortable administering medication, preparing special diets, and providing extra care and attention. I love having dogs around and would be delighted to welcome your pet into my home. For everyone’s comfort and safety, I ask that dogs be friendly around children, adults, and other dogs. Meet and greets—virtual or in person—are required before booking so we can make sure it’s a great fit for everyone. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member! I work a flexible hybrid schedule, with three days per week at home and my office is close enough to come home midday on office days for walks and all your pet’s needs. I live in a spacious townhome and do not have a fenced yard, but if your dog enjoys leashed walks and outdoor playtime, I have easy access to open outdoor spaces, parks, and nature trails. In my home, dogs are a part of the family and welcome to make themselves comfortable just as they would in your home. They are welcome to relax on the couch, snooze on the bed, or use their own bed or crate if that’s most comfortable. I want your dog (and you) to feel relaxed and safe until your return.
About: Hello there! My name is Erika. I’ve been interacting with dogs since I was an infant, and now I’m a proud dog owner of an Australian Shepherd named Mysti. For the majority of my life, my family has had Labrador Retrievers, and I have experience with most common breeds through friends, family, and Rover. I also have experience with lesser-known breeds, difficult breeds, and breeds that need specialized attention. My experience also includes working with dogs who require medical attention, such as dogs with diabetes, epilepsy, cancer, and most common diseases and disorders such as anxiety, depression, minor/moderate behavioral issues, and teeth/gum issues. I’m very capable of changing out gauze on medical sites, cleaning stitches, administering medicine, and cleaning up after a pet if they have an accident. Caring for pets isn’t always “pretty”, or “perfect”, and I’m okay with that. My approach is straight-forward, no nonsense, and compassionate, and I will always do right by you and your pet. Currently, my full-time job is working with pets and completing my degree. I do have some regulars around lunchtime, but other than that my schedule is generally open. In my spare time I garden, paint, draw, cook, walk my dog, and run another small business online. ———————————————————— How I run my schedule: there are certain pillars of importance that I focus on when I’m caring for your animal. Most importantly, first, we have your pet’s basic needs. This varies by each pet but I take these needs into consideration every time I’m with them. I do what I can to accommodate the physical, emotional, and mental needs of your animals without being invasive. My goal is for your pet to get everything they need, and to know that I am there for them. The second pillar that I focus on is trust. An animal respects when I actually *see* and respect them, not when I expect them to be happy regardless. Pets will wonder where you are. My job is not to replace you, but to build a unique and gradual relationship with your pet so they feel safe on all levels. The third and final pillar that I focus on is safety, but this is really at the forefront of my mind at all times. I will go to great lengths to protect your home, your pets, and your possessions. I have a pet and home of my own, so I understand how scary it can be to leave your pets and home in my care. These are the pillars that I stand by and are what make my business method virtually bullet-proof. I’m extremely meticulous when it comes to locking up homes, crating pets if needed, and securing an environment for curious pets. At the end of the day, these pillars of care can impact my schedule relative to the animals I am caring for. Please be understanding and know your animal is getting this treatment when I am with them :) ———————————————————— Important regarding house-sittings: there are some times when I am more in demand than others. This is a gig-based business, and I take what comes to me. Unfortunately, my jobs are not exact distances apart and some dogs/cats may take more time to care for than others due to high energy needs or medical problems. Please understand that my schedule varies and the likelihood of me being able to accommodate everything you need at the exact time you expect is extremely slim. I make exceptions and carve out time for dogs and cats with medical issues, but otherwise I expect your pet to be okay for a bit if I have to run out and take care of other families’ pets. I have many clients who rely on me for last-minute trips such as for work, funerals, and other personal matters. I cannot guarantee a completely open schedule for you and your pet, even though I wish this business could work that way. I am also a homeowner, engaged, and have a dog of my own, so my schedule is not for yours to do anything with. We must negotiate and see what works for us both. If you aren’t okay with that, I am not the sitter for you. I expect reasonable clients who understand this is a business, not a charity. I’m good at my job and expect people to respect my time, my professional expertise, and my judgement. Trust: Having a stranger come into your home to watch your pets is a big deal. I’m the person who comes to the house for a living and even I find it a bit strange. So, what I can say about trusting me is that I understand if you don’t. What I can tell you about me is that I’m someone who likes things straight-forward and blunt (this makes it easier for us both to trust each other), I prefer transparency (who are we all trying to fool anyways?), and I will always be honest with you about what is going on with me and your pet. I back this up by being completely okay with being watched by home cameras, as long as they aren’t in private areas, and that I am informed. ———————————————————— Environment: Cleanliness, order, and structure are important to me when caring for pets, whether they be a dog who needs a walk, a cat who needs medicine, or a puppy who just needs to play. I am very mindful about the environment I am in, whether that be your home, your yard, or walking outside in the neighborhood. I typically centralize what I need in the workspace that I am assigned (kitchen, living room, bedroom), and will complete all essential tasks as described and then clean up after myself completely. I take pride in leaving an environment clean and leaving your personal belongings untouched, and making sure that your pet can’t get into anything dangerous, can’t get out, and is safe when they are with me and when they are alone in the house. I’m careful of poisonous substances, such as coffee grounds, items containing xylitol, and other poisonous items such as chemical cleaning agents. In regard to your home, I am incredibly diligent about keeping windows and doors locked when I am around and when I am out. Nothing scares me more than the thought of a loose pet or someone getting into a home while I am gone and will go to great lengths to make sure neither of those things happen on my watch. ———————————————————— Safety: I would like to think I’m pretty fun and cool, but I’m actually quite a stickler when it comes to safety. When walking especially, I will avoid people and dogs without a second thought because I don’t want your dog to either react negatively and get into a bad situation or end up getting attacked by a reactive/aggressive dog. I’m a quick walker, carry treats on me for emergencies, and am physically capable of picking up dogs up to about 80-100 pounds. Extra large dogs I am able to control by making them do a sit and holding their collar until they’re calm or non-resistant. If they do not sit, I will block them until they listen and relax. I use obedience basics to ensure a safe and trusting relationship with the pets I watch, whether or not we are on a walk. My method when a dog is acting naughty is to ignore them, take treats away, and if necessary I can crate them.
