Ashley wasted out Shepsky while we were on a float trip. She sent pictures. Jersey made herself right at home next to the chair. Her children played with her. Will definitely book her again.

Monica was amazing! This was our first experience with using Rover and I cannot recommend Monica enough. If I could give 10 stars I would. She provided daily updates with pictures, she has a fenced yard and has room for them to play. My husband and I were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing our two puppies were well cared for and enjoying themselves. I highly recommend Monica.

About: My house is full of love and my dogs will surely keep your pets entertained they are friendly with almost everyone and the indoor and indoor/outdoor cats have been around many dogs and other animals with no problems in addition the rodents and birds areas can be closed off so your pet has no experience with those animals to keep all pets happy and healthy. I grew up on a farm so I have experience with cows, goats, rabbits, geese, ducks, chickens, guinea pigs, hamsters, dogs and cats. When I turned 17 I started my zoo as my father calls it, I have 11 animals. I started with a simple one cat and one dog. In 2023 I increased the number from 2 pets to 5 getting a Chinchilla and two cats one showing up at my front door and another surrendered to me after I friend couldn’t care for him anymore. Then in the beginning of 2025 another friend moved and couldn’t bring her birds so we took in 3 parakeets which they do better in pairs so we bought one to make it 4 and then a couple months later we were finally able to find a second chinchilla so that nether was lonely because they are also better in pairs also. Lastly number 11 I had been thinking about for awhile I always wanted a lot of dogs being a big dog person so my 11th pet we got at the beginning of 2026 she is a 6 month old border collie. I currently work part-time in the evenings so I’m free every morning and all weekend depending on the weekend. I can also be available any day by request but my days off are always Sunday, Monday, Friday, Saturday. I live in a rural area with a large space for dogs to play we have a 5 year old small medium pit-terrier mix and a 6 month old border collie. I also have a variety of pets so I have knowledge on how to care for birds, rodents, fish, cats and of course dogs large and small.

About: Hi! I'm Dannie, I've been a certified dog groomer for over 7 years. I've been fortunate enough to personally love and care for special needs pets and also senior dogs. As a groomer I am always continuing my canine education, especially related to safe dog handling. My goal in life is to meet all the pups! Being in a salon management position I do have a good amount of flexibility with my schedule. I will be available for drop-in visits and walks in the evenings and select day visits. I’m also available for overnight pet sitting during the week and on every other weekend. In home I have a very social mini poodle mix, 5 years old, she is very adaptable to having other dogs around and respecting their schedules. In clients home I try to keep with their pets schedule as much as possible while providing care and attention.

Elizabeth did a wonderful job coming and entertaining my kitten while I was away! She sent lots of videos/pictures and even picked up a couple toys and a new eating tray and dishes for Maple. I will absolutely be booking Elizabeth again when I need to go out of town!

About: I have 3 very different cats. I have a 5 year old grey tabby who is quite a character she is the alpha of this house until a stranger comes in no matter if it’s a stranger animal or person she will hide until she thinks it’s safe and is very cautious outside staying by her brother’s side if she is unsure of something. My second cat showed up on my door late at night she is a beautiful cat she is a diluted tortie but really she’s a blonde through and through I think she must be on her 8th life by now she does not make smart choices she likely wouldn’t survive a day without her humans. My last cat he is very independent if it was up to him he’d live outside always but only if it never rained or snowed. He keeps the rodent population down in the area and keeps his sister from getting in fights protecting her since he is a bigger cat but he comes home every night to sleep with his mama no matter how much he enjoys going outside he knows one MEOOOOOOOW by the door will get him outside. So in summary I have experience with indoor, indoor-outdoor and outdoor cats. And my cats eat a bit of kibble and smalls which is a frozen fresh food so I won’t mind meeting your cats special food needs because dogs are not the only ones who deserve human grade food.

About: I have babysit my family and friends fur babies over night for several years now . I enjoy spending the time with them and enjoy taking them on long walks and having play time with them. I have four dogs of my own that I take care of. I work for amazon right now monday thru thursday. Iam opened to helping out with customers pets friday tru sunday. I feed and water my dogs everyday, plus play with them to. If its a nice out i let my dogs choose if they want to stay outside or not until i get home from work, but they are inside on nasty days. They do come in at night and sleep with us. I give them their owns baths and trim their own nails. At the clients home I take their dog outside on a nice day to play and take their dogs on a walk. Before I would leave the clients home, I would make sure that their fur babies would have water and food . When we are on walks I make sure I carry water with me for their fur babies.

About: Hi! I'm a K-1 reading teacher with 5 years of teaching experience, and I'm looking forward to spending my summer helping care for your pups! As a teacher, I am dependable, responsible, and patient. I've had dogs my entire life and have spent years walking and pet sitting for friends and family. I currently have a Miniature Pinscher named Pinot, who is my whole world, so I understand how important it is to find someone who will care for your dog like family. Whether your pup needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or companionship, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. Since I'm currently on summer break, I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a teacher currently on summer break, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. My own dog, Pinot, is a big part of my everyday life, so walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of affection are already built into my day. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, making pet care something I genuinely look forward to each week rather than just another task. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their established routine as closely as possible to help their pet feel comfortable and secure. Whether I'm stopping by for a potty break, feeding, playtime, or a walk, I make sure each pet receives plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. I always prioritize safety, follow any specific instructions provided by the owner, and keep them updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind while they're away.

About: I currently have 2 dogs and have had dogs my whole life. Both of my dogs are very high energy so I am used to keeping them busy. My male dog is 3 years old and he requires a lot of love and attention. He is great with kids and other animals. My female dog is 6 years old and she's a very anxious girl. She prefers to be the only pet but is extremely affectionate with people. I have experience with small and large dogs from puppy to elderly. I am comfortable feeding, grooming, walking, and caring for your pets. My availability is flexible. I am willing to stay at the owners home so the dogs feel safe in a familiar area. I am available for daily walks or extended stays. I have experience with special feeding and medication routines for pets if needed. I also have experience caring for more than one pet in the same home that are on different schedules or need to be kept away from another pet in the home. I will treat you fur baby like my own and they will be well cared for! I'm currently in the process of going back to school so I am not working a scheduled job right now. My availability is flexible. I'm available for daily check ins and walks. I'm also available for extended or overnight care throughout the week and all weekend. I will do all of my care at the client's home per the client's instructions on their pets needs and will provide care in the way the client specifically wants their pet cared for. My availability is open and very flexible! I can take last minute requests, overnight stays any day of the week, can stop in multiple times a day to check on your pet if needed. I will do my best to accommodate any situation and make sure to take great care of your dog/cat! I will give your pet lots of love and attention! I will make sure to follow any instructions or requests while I am caring for your pet(s). I like to send daily pictures and updates to give you piece of mind while you are away. I always keep notes with your normal routine with your pet as well as any other information I need to know while caring for them. Before caring for your pet(s) I like to spend some time with them during a meet and greet because it is extremely important to see how your dog or cat responds to me before I am hired to care for them. Being a dog mom myself I would want to see how my dog responds to someone before I made the decision to hire them. Your pet(s) safety, comfort and wellbeing are my top priority when caring for them!
