About: Hi I am Stephanie. I am a life long dog owner and lover of all animals. I currently have a Cavapoo named Sophie who is my little ball of attitude. I have experience with all kinds of dogs, labs, cocker spaniel, doodles, German shepherds,and French Bulldogs. I am willing to watch in your home as my girl isn't fond of guests.

I have lived in many countries, led international mission trips, and have cared for many owner's houses/pets.
“How can I say enough about Clint & Leah? Took a peak at Rover.com at the recommendation of an animal loving friend. Read the profiles. How can you decide who to invite into your mother’s senior living residence to care for her cat for two weeks based on a brief description???? Prayed abt it for awhile and reached out to Clint and Leah. Texted them, believe we spoke on the phone before their initial “meet and greet visit.” (No charge btw). They are a delightful couple, involved in ministry to people and critters! They took on the challenge of caring for our somewhat grumpy cat Mittens. Besides their daily visits to feed and water our cat, the brought in the mail & newspaper, watered the plants, took them out for a sunbath on a warm day, then brought them in from the cold another, played with Mittens, brought my attention to some health concerns, emptied her litter box, swept floor, even brought Mittens her favorite treats, needed hair ball medicine, and a new toy! They visited daily, sending pics and notes abt their visits. When the contracted time was up, the made an extra visit (also non-paid) to return the keys. The peace of mind they gave me was a blessing! If anyone needs a pet sitter for their pet, please don’t be afraid to call on Clint and Leah. They are awesome caretakers. Took a risk on the unknown and Mittens won!”

“Stephanie was wonderful! So sweet and kind and loving to our pup Whitney! She had a great time, you can tell she was very well taken care of and loved! We got pictures and updates every day which was awesome too! We will definitely be using Stephanie again for our pet sitting needs!!”
“Wonderful and attentive care givers for my senior dog. I received daily updates, they were perfect! We were afraid she wouldn’t want to come home, she received so much love and attention!”
“Melissa was awesome! She was able to accept a last minute booking for me and took great care of my dog even though she had some medical issues while she was there she kept me updated and took great care of her!”
“Rebecca did a wonderful job providing loving care to my Shih Tzu. She sent to me daily updates and photos; it was so reassuring to know my pup was in the hands of an attentive caregiver.”
“I would recommend Emily to anyone! She recently watched my 4 m/o puppy, Charlie, who is a ball of energy & made her feel at home! Her two pups, Baker & Dodge, were so sweet, patient, & gentle with Charlie. Emily was sure to keep me updated with tons of pictures & videos so I never had anything to worry about. Will definitely be rebooking!”
“Agnatha was great with my dogs! They warmed up to her really quickly and had a wonderful time with her. She sent me many pictures to show how they were doing and was communicative about what they were doing and how they were eating and such. I will definitely be a repeat customer! Thank you, Agnatha!!”
“April was very accommodating with our dog ! We scheduled a meet and greet and found time for me to do a trial boarding day before our week long vacation! We feel very safe with our senior dog under her care !”
“Jennifer cared for our Great Dane , Kamora. Kamora’s stay with Jennifer was perfect. Our dog enjoyed her stay, we received pictures and updates , and all of Kamora’s special needs were cared for. I highly recommend Jennifer for all pet care services she provides.”
“Alexander & Jaycee were absolutely incredible and took phenomenal care of my dog. They have a lovely home and perfect yard for exactly what my dog needs / is used to. And my dog actually became friends with their dogs (shout out to Stormy)! I would highly encourage anyone looking to let them take care of your pup! I’ll certainly be a repeat customer 😊.”
“We loved boarding our Everitt with Cory. He was very in tune and experienced with dogs and how they act and was understanding of our young dog’s behavior. When we picked her up we could tell she was well cared for and happy with her stay. We would use him again and would recommend him to anybody that is looking for somebody”
“Hannah and Haley did a great job with my baby! A perfect fit for Jamie's separation anxiety, since he was never home alone, and he came home a very tired baby after playing with Hannah's dogs all weekend. He didn't seem to want to leave!”
“"Heather was absolutely wonderful with Lucky! It’s never easy leaving him, but she made me feel so comfortable. He was well-loved and well-cared for the entire time. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!"”
“Cassandra did a great job taking care of Banjo for two nights. Communication was excellent (photos and videos, along with messages about how he was doing), and Cassandra was willing to accommodate drop-off and pickup requests to fit my schedule for the weekend. I have always been apprehensive about boarding my dogs at a kennel if I have to go out of town for more than one night. Cassandra made Banjo feel at home and kept him in a normal, relaxed environment and routine.”
About: I have been caring for animals since I was a child. I watched my neighbors dogs for years, and have cared for my own pets as well! I am trying to start somewhere to grow as a pet sitter. I currently work full time, however if I have any animals to care for I am hoping to make that a priority and make that my full time job. I have a fenced in yard, and 2 dogs of my own. I have experience with cats as well, I have 2 cats of my own.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I could remember, I personally have a dog named Baxter that I have taken care of sense I was 14 years old. I have taken care of a newfoundland poodle mix named Arlo for the past two years as well. I am currently training in my off season as a professional hockey player. I have two months off and nothing but love to give for dogs. I am in need of a summer job and this would be the perfect fit! Pet/animal care and safety is my number one priority. I know from personal experience what it is like when someone does not care for your pet when paid and expected to. I no longer use boarders because of past traumatic experiences and because of opportunities like Rover.
