Personalized care for your dog or cat - Mendota

“Definitely 5 stars for Kathleen!!! She kept me informed with messages and photos on how they were doing, and even a video showing our dogs playing together. She was so caring and attentive to them, and I know they were very well taken care of. She kept them very active and had a lot of outside time in her nice fenced backyard. She also was agreeable to modifying our pickup time when I was running later than planned. I will use her again if I'm back in the area & highly encourage others to use her.”

“Susan was awesome! My husband is extremely particular about the dog. I’m actually shocked he agreed to leave him with a stranger. It could not have gone any better! Susan took Jack for lots of walks and she and her husband even took him on the boat! We got lots of pictures and updates on how he was doing. We definitely hope she’s available to watch Jack next time we travel!”

About: My boyfriend and I have always had animals in our lives. Growing up he lived on a farm with dogs, cats, goats, pigs etc. and I have had dogs and cats my whole life. We currently have 2 beautiful Great Danes, a bunch of rabbits, outside kitties, and 3 chinchillas! Our dogs love people, small animals, and would love a bigger dog to run around with. We would love to cuddle with your fur babies, go for walks, or just play in the fenced yard! With summer coming up we know that it’s going to be vacation time, you deserve to be able to enjoy and relax on vacation while knowing your animals are well taken care of. Me and my boyfriend work mornings and get lunch breaks half way through, so we’d be able to check on your animals even while working and we can be with them all afternoon. On Wednesdays and Thursdays we are both off so they’d get us all day! We have a 2 story house with lots of room for them to lay around and have their own space if needed. We also have a large backyard that is fenced off already for our dogs.

About: I have had animals my whole life. This past May, I was lucky enough to retire from 33+ years of teaching. Since 2022, I have volunteered at Tails Animal Shelter walking dogs. Last year, we had to say goodbye to our 16 year old dog, and I miss having animals in the house. While I am not ready to get a new dog, I am very excited to take care of other's dogs like they were my own. Whether it is your pet coming to our house or me going to your home, I cannot wait to keep your furry friend company. Communication is a key issue for me. I worried about my dog all the time. I find a way to alleviate that is to send pictures often. Because I am retired, I would be able to be with pets most of the day. I would let them out every couple of hours - more if needed. I can follow any schedule for feeding. I am really flexible and would be able to accommodate most schedules. I would make sure to keep a close eye on your dog while we were hanging out together. Dogs are definitely allowed on furniture (unless you prefer they not be). I can put a dog in a crate if that is comfortable for them as well. Our yard is not fenced, but it is a large yard in the woods. I can also take dogs for walk around our neighborhood or to the riverwalk in downtown Dixon. We also have a property about 15 miles south of Dixon with 80 acres and a pond, so a trip there could be fun as well.

About: Hello! My name is Tia, I am a huge animal lover and figured I might as well try to make money doing something I love, being with animals of course! I am a stay at home mother of two elementary aged boys. Your furry family member will be treated as an equal and will receive unconditional love here. Sadly, we are not financially ready to add a furry member into our pack, so welcoming your little friend into our lives would be an excitingly, wonderful time for us! I also do bathing, nail clipping/filing, teeth brushing and ear cleaning if you are in need of that extra service. I started using Rover in 2015 and was active on here through 2019. I took a break from the app due to no animals allowed where I was living. Although, I continued working as a dog bather through the years. My photos on here are older, but I will be updating with more recent photos soon, As I have plenty I can post. At the moment, I am now living in well kept and spacious camper within a beautiful and quiet camping resort and am excited to have the opportunity to be back to working with Rover and watching over your furry babies. I hope to hear from you soon! Message me with any questions and please don't hesitate! I have all the love in the world to give! (: I stay at home right now, so your pup/ kitty will have my undivided attention and all the love they need to feel comfortable while they are away from you. I have plenty of space for them to relax comfortably, and I have no problem allowing animals on the furniture and bed. There is also lots of land for them to explore. I do not have a fenced area, but am more than happy to take your pup for a walk for a long as they need.

About: Love to have a furry companion on my walks and give them some time outside, I’ve had dogs my whole life big and small and always enjoy walking them. Me and my husband are working part time, and we love dogs, so we have plenty of free days to spend and take nice walks with your pup! Our house has a fenced in yard and we also have a few gates so the dogs can’t get to any places they shouldn’t be.

About: I’ve had animals ever since I was born, ranging from cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, birds, turtles.. And since I was young I helped care for them! Once I hit my pre-teen years I began volunteering at animal shelters, helping with animals of all kinds! I once even held a fundraiser in middle school for a local shelter who needed help gathering supplies for their pets. I have experience with animals who need medications or have special needs! I personally have a small elderly chihuahua, a calm fluffy cat, a young playful kitten. I’m currently a college student focusing on my education, so I have plenty of time to assist you with all your pet care needs! I’ll be available to help with your fur babies for as long as you need me to! I do offer services within my own home! I have a small chihuahua, a friendly cat, a small kitten, and a child under my roof as well. But, animal safety is my number one priority! I’ve taught my step daughter the utmost of respect towards animals! I can also keep my pets separate from yours if needed!

“Erin is great with Oscar and gives him a good workout on their walks. I highly recommend Erin.”
