About: Hi! I am new to Rover, but caring for dogs is something my family truly loves. I have a friendly golden retriever named Stanley who absolutely thrives when he has other dogs to play with—so hosting furry friends is a joy for all of us! I work from home most days, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. My young kids also love having dogs around and are gentle, playful, and used to being around animals. I also have a cat in our home who is very comfortable around dogs—she and Stanley are great friends—so your pup should be cat-friendly or at least respectful of cats. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor playtime, and I treat every dog that stays with us like part of the family. Whether your dog loves to play or just relax, I will make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and right at home. Since I’m just getting started on Rover, I’m excited to build relationships with both pets and their owners and provide a safe, trustworthy environment you can feel confident in. I currently work a hybrid schedule. I am home 2-3 days a week. We do have a fenced in yard and a doggy door. I have a fenced in yard and my animals are our family. They are welcome to lay where they are comfortable and shares the bed with me if needed.

These puppies are high energy and were allowed to play in their fenced in yard to their heart’s content and adjusted well to their already busy household. I will definitely check with them first if ever needing boarding again.”

“Rhianna was absolutely wonderful with Sawyer! She did in home pet sitting for multiple nights and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the start, she was communicative, reliable, and clearly cared about making Sawyer feel comfortable and loved while I was away. She kept me updated, treated him like her own, and gave me total peace of mind throughout the stay — which is priceless when leaving your pet behind. Sawyer came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I will 100% be booking with Rhianna again in the future and would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and kind pet sitter!”

About: I’ve been caring for cats since childhood and have always had a special love for their unique personalities and quirks. I understand that every cat is different—some want lots of attention and playtime, while others prefer to take things at their own pace. I’m happy to provide feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of companionship. I’ll follow your cat’s normal routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your cat is doing well!

She responded and was so sweet to come for a quick meet and greet before we left. We knew right away that she had a special love for cats. She and our Mac connected right away. We loved that she shared many photos with us and let us know what she did on each visit. Maria gave us peace of mind that our boy was being well cared for while we were gone. She also kindly watered my flower pots for me. We highly recommend Maria.”

About: Cats have always been an important part of my life, and I have owned as many as four at one time. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, so I provide patient, attentive care tailored to their individual needs. I offer drop-in visits and boarding in a calm, cat-friendly environment. I am also experienced in administering various medications, including injections. Having cared for my own diabetic cat, I understand the importance of following medication schedules carefully, monitoring behavior, and noticing subtle changes in a cat's health. Whether your cat is social and playful or shy and independent, I will respect their boundaries and do my best to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you are away. While my primary focus is cat care, I am also happy to care for small animals such as guinea pigs and small dogs. If you have another small pet, feel free to reach out. I’m happy to discuss their needs and determine whether I’m a good fit.

About: I'm a dedicated animal lover with a proven track record in the pet care industry. My diverse experience includes owning and operating a successful pet training and boarding facility, as well as consulting for a renowned service dog training organization. As a lifelong pet parent myself, I understand the unique bond between humans and animals. My personal "zoo" includes three beloved dogs and a menagerie of other species, reflecting my passion for all creatures great and small. I actively contribute to my community by working with local rescues and animal welfare organizations. My expertise extends beyond dogs to a wide array of animals, from hamsters to horses, with a special affinity for exotic pets. I'm known for my professionalism, flexibility, and genuine love for animals, which consistently earns the trust and affection of both pets and their owners. As an overly attached pet parent myself, I empathize with the worries that come with leaving your furry (or scaly!) family members in someone else's care. That's why I go above and beyond to provide frequent updates and personalized attention, ensuring your peace of mind. When I ran my own facility, I even created individual "blog" pages for each dog, allowing owners to stay connected with their pets daily. I'm thrilled to offer that same level of care and transparency to my current clients. Let me bring my expertise and passion to your pet care needs – your furry, feathered, or scaly friends will thank you! For an extra fee, I can tack on training to daycare or boarding My routine is pet care centric, whether I'm pet sitting or not. I'm almost always doing something with my many pets, particularly the two dogs. I follow strict safety protocols. If needed, I can crate your dog, use double leashes etc. Whatever is necessary for your pet to have the safest environment

“Blythe was very accommodating. She took us as a fairly last minute booking since we had a funeral and my previous sitter had just moved away. My pickup estimate was off and she was kind enough to keep Grokii an hour or two longer than expected even though it coincided with putting her kids to bed. Her kids are absolutely adorable and I know Grokii was doted on because he slept almost the entire next day. Great family - highly recommend!”

About: I've been around and have helped care for dogs and cats all shapes and sizes. Each one I've personally owned are a part of the family! I would take care of your fur baby like I'd want mine taken care of. I am a homeschooling mom which means your fur baby will be kept company while in my care. During the school year, on Saturdays, we sometimes will have sporting events to go to, as well as some week nights we will go to extracurricular practices but never gone for long! We have a large open park right in our backyard along with short trails. We have a sweet Goldador at home that loves playmates and is great with big, small, old and young dogs. We also two cats (a boy and girl) that sleep the day away and love spending time looking outside in the sunroom. My three kids (ages 9 - 14) have been shown from the beginning how to respect and love animals and they will be a wonderful addition to keeping your fur babies feeling loved and cared for!

With over a decade of experience working with a wide variety of animals, I bring knowledge, dedication, and a deep passion for providing exceptional care. About Me As of February 2025, I am 25 years old and currently pursuing a degree in agriculture operation and technology, as well as political science, and psychology.

Pet Safety is My #1 Priority Your pet’s well-being is my highest concern.

I understand the stress of leaving your pets in someone else’s care, and I am here to provide peace of mind while ensuring your furry, feathered, or scaly friend receives the love, attention, and professional care they deserve. I have a highly flexible schedule and can accommodate last-minute changes as needed. Since my college coursework is asynchronous, I can adapt my work to fit around your schedule seamlessly. As a business owner who manages my own time, I prioritize reliability and responsiveness, ensuring that your pet’s needs are always met with the highest level of care and attention. Commitment to Quality Care in Your Home When caring for your pet in your home, I strive to go above and beyond to ensure both your pet's well-being and your peace of mind. If I notice anything out of place or in need of tidying, I’m happy to help—but always with your prior approval. I understand that personal preferences vary; some clients prefer to handle certain tasks themselves, while others appreciate the extra assistance. My goal is to respect your space and treat your home with the same level of care I would my own. Having spent the last two years renovating my own home, I deeply understand the importance of maintaining a clean and organized environment. Safety and Pet Care Best Practices Your pet’s safety is my top priority, and I take every precaution to ensure their well-being: Secure Transportation: If I transport your pet, they will always be properly restrained with a seatbelt or pet travel carrier for safety. Leash & Walk Safety: On walks, I ensure pets do not pick up items from the ground. I also clean their paws after every outing, just as I do with my own pets. Hygiene & Health: If your pet gets dirty, I will provide a bath with your permission. Any medical concerns will be addressed immediately, and I am trained in emergency pet first aid, excluding surgical procedures. Home Security: I will ensure all doors and windows are securely locked when leaving your home. Privacy & Updates: I will only take photos of your pet for your updates and will never photograph your home without permission. Supervision & Outdoor Time: Pets in my care will never be left alone in a vehicle or outside unattended, even in my fenced yard. Cats will remain indoors unless they are harness-trained and you request outdoor time. Stranger Interaction: While on walks, your pet will not interact with strangers or other animals unless pre-approved for socialization. Pet Care in My Home Pets in my home receive dedicated supervision unless prior arrangements are made: Dogs: If a dog is staying with me and needs to be left alone for an extended period, I require a crate for their safety and comfort. However, my schedule is highly flexible, minimizing the time they are left alone. Cats: Cats may be left unsupervised in a designated, pet-safe room with regular check-ins. Handling Aggressive or Special Needs Pets I have extensive experience with fearful, reactive, and aggressive pets, but clear and honest communication is essential: Cats: I am comfortable handling feral or aggressive cats and will take the necessary time to build trust. I can administer medication as needed, but I require full transparency about their behavior to ensure safety for all. Dogs: I can accommodate dogs with minor behavioral challenges, such as leash reactivity or mild anxiety. However, for safety reasons, I cannot accept: Dogs over 50 lbs who are not at least moderately leash-trained. Dogs requiring a muzzle or choke collar in public settings. Dogs with severe aggression or unpredictable behavior. Double-Booking Policy For the safety and well-being of all pets, I do not double-book boarding, daycare, or walks unless all parties have given consent and a meet-and-greet has taken place. If multiple dogs are staying in my home at the same time, a meet-and-greet is required. Even if the dogs get along, they will not be left alone together unless securely crated. Cats and dogs boarding in my home simultaneously will be kept in separate areas with no contact.

I’m especially happy to work with young pets who need extra playtime, patience, and basic reinforcement, while also giving senior pets the slower pace and extra attention they may need. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while they’re in my care. 🐾 I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I’m available for drop-in visits and dog walks throughout the week and will work with you to find times that fit your pet’s routine and needs! I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. During drop-in visits and walks, I’ll follow your pet’s routine and instructions closely, provide plenty of attention and supervision, and make sure they are safe and comfortable. I’ll also treat your home with respect and leave everything just as I found it.

About: Hi! I am new to Rover, but caring for dogs is something my family truly loves. I have a friendly golden retriever named Stanley who absolutely thrives when he has other dogs to play with—so hosting furry friends is a joy for all of us! I work from home most days, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. My young kids also love having dogs around and are gentle, playful, and used to being around animals. I also have a cat in our home who is very comfortable around dogs—she and Stanley are great friends—so your pup should be cat-friendly or at least respectful of cats. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor playtime, and I treat every dog that stays with us like part of the family. Whether your dog loves to play or just relax, I will make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and right at home. Since I’m just getting started on Rover, I’m excited to build relationships with both pets and their owners and provide a safe, trustworthy environment you can feel confident in. I currently work a hybrid schedule. I am home 2-3 days a week. We do have a fenced in yard and a doggy door. I have a fenced in yard and my animals are our family. They are welcome to lay where they are comfortable and shares the bed with me if needed.

“Jessica was amazing with my Pomsky Snowball! I was initially very nervous because my dog had separation anxiety from me and can sometimes be a handful. Jessica sent me lots of pictures and kept my boy busy and happy! My boy has never had much socialization with other dogs and he ended up loving her pets! Highly satisfied!”

“Will definitely leave my dog with her anytime I need to go on a trip. She sent photos and messages updating me when ever I asked. If you ever worry about your dog when you’re gone you won’t after using her for the first time I promise. Can’t express enough how well it went.”

“This was the first time we ever left our dog overnight with someone else, and Ralph was the perfect person to handle it. He’s very knowledgeable on dog behavior and communicated with us as much as we wanted him to. Our puppy can be a handful but he took care of our little guy beyond our expectations. We’d love to book him again if we ever leave town again.”

About: I absolutely love animals and have always had a passion for caring for them. I have a 11 year old Yorkie/ Silky Terrier mix. I also have experience with larger dogs in my family as well. I am eager to not only become your dog's caregiver but also a friend. I am experienced with special needs and physically handicapped dogs and can also administer medication. I will give extra attention and care to dogs who may have a disability or preexisting condition! I am available most weekdays and weekends and will adjust my pet care routine as needed based on your pet's age, health, and specific needs while remembering any special accommodations. Initially, I will meet with you to discuss your pets' needs, routines, and any special requirements. I will also make sure to get detailed instructions on feeding and medication. Please make sure to leave information about your dog's veterinarian and an also provide an emergency contact.

“Max and Mariah took great care of our two 9 month old pups over an entire 4-day holiday weekend. These puppies are high energy and were allowed to play in their fenced in yard to their heart’s content and adjusted well to their already busy household. I will definitely check with them first if ever needing boarding again.”

“Literally the BEST person for our senior pup! She sent multiple daily updates, treated him really well, and basically spoiled him rotten! She even asked questions about his needs and wants. She referred to herself as “granny” for Benji, and by the end of his stay, Benji and I both agreed that she’s his granny! Ive never used this app before and she was my first person to try boarding with, and it was awesome. Will 100% come back if I need a sitter and 100% recommend her. :)”

“Jennifer and her family provided excellent care for my senior dog, Molly. Molly was loved and well taken care of. Molly wasn't stressed when I picked her up and felt right at home with Jennifer's family. I can't say enough great things! Excellent communicator, received pictures daily, beautiful clean home, nice, kind and welcoming! When needing a sitter, she's always my first go-to. Jennifer is the absolute BEST!”
