Personalized care for your dog or cat - Butman

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Butman
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.
“Her family loves animals. She keeps me updated wirh pictures and videos. My dog is very well taken care of. She used to be my back up dog sitter, but now she is my main one. We are very happy with her. It's nice to go out of town for a few days and not have to worry about out dog.”

“Ashley was very accommodating and excellent with our 4 active dogs. I could tell they were very well taken care of and got plenty attention. Communication was great and we got regular updates with photos while we were gone. It’s clear she truly cares about animals. We will definitely be back. Thank you!”

About: Bonafide Animal Lover! I grew up on a farm caring for many different animals & have always had either cats and/or dogs in my adult life. Most recent, I cared for our two adult male shepherds in all aspects - training, feeding, walking, nurturing and our two adult cats - training, feeding, activity and nurturing. My pets are part of my family & I will provide the same level of care to your pets as well! I am a semi-retired remote bookkeeper and empty nester therefore I am home most of the time and have plenty of time to do drop in visits, walking or boarding. My caution level for keeping my pets safe and well cared for is very high. They are part of my family. I focus on their daily feeding schedule, ensure the catbox is kept clean daily, play with them (laser pointer and feather toy) for their exercise, and provide lots of love and cuddles too. When I have our shepherds, I walk them daily and play fetch and tug of war with a ball or rope.
“Mckenzie was absolutely amazing! Ivy loved her pup Harley and when I picked Ivy up she was tired from all the playing she did. She sent frequent updates and pictures and kept me informed on how Ivy was doing throughout the day. Mckenzie was very flexible with her time for me and has a nice yard for the pups to play in. I HIGHLY recommend.”

About: I've been around dogs and cats my whole life. I am comfortable with all breeds and can't wait to meet yours! Whether you need someone to walk them, spend time with them, check on them when your out of town, I'm happy to help! I currently am employed part time, but if you let me me know what is needed I can try to make any schedule work, day or night! I have a 9 year old Beagle and a 5 month old Pitbull along with 2 year old cat. I enjoy socializing them with people and other dogs. The dogs go for daily walks and love to swim, play fetch etc.
“Alana was right on time for multiple visits to care for and check on my big Akita/husky pup. She sent pictures of him playing on each visit and sent me texts updating me on his status. Couldn't ask for better!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Butman
“Lucie took great care of our pug Lucy. She kept us updated through out the day with messages and pictures. I felt really good about leaving our pug with Lucie because she is clearly an animal lover. She responded quickly to all of our messages and our pug was in good shape when we went to pick her up. I definitely recommend Lucie for pet care. She's great!”
“Samantha is responsive, cheerful and friendly. Tag had a wonderful time staying with her family, including Stanley, a sweet golden retriever. We won’t hesitate to use Samantha again and recommend her highly to others!”

About: I have always had a love for animals and have three pups of my own. I am a stay at home mom and watch everyone’s dogs (and kids). We love going for walks and running around in the backyard! I am a stay at home mom so taking care of dogs would be my only job other than being a mom to my two children. We go for two walks a day and spend lots of time outside! In my home we have a fully fenced in yard for lots of running around and play time. When we are inside we have a doggie gate so that no dogs are running over the baby.

Never had a dog or cat complain though!🥰 If in your pets home, you can trust I will follow their rules, routines, & needs as my top priority.
“Alana was very professional, observant and attentive to the dogs. They can be a little skittish and nervous with new people but she was very gentle with them and helped them feel at ease. She even noticed and let me know about a health issue for one of my dogs, which I really appreciated.”
