About: I have a genuine love for animals and take great pride in providing reliable, caring pet-sitting services. Having grown up on a farm, I gained hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, from household pets to livestock. This background has taught me responsibility, patience, and how to care for animals of all kinds. I treat every pet as if it were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I attend school online, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to travel for pet-sitting jobs and even stay overnight when needed, as long as there’s Wi-Fi so I can keep up with my classes. Since I’m currently applying for more jobs, my availability is open and adaptable, making it easy for me to provide consistent, reliable care for pets whenever I’m needed. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routines as closely as possible so the pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide regular feeding, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also take time to clean up after them, whether that’s refreshing litter boxes, wiping paws, or tidying up their spaces. If I’m staying overnight, I make sure the home stays neat and the pets get extra attention and companionship. My goal is always to create a safe, calm, and loving environment while keeping the owner’s home just as they left it.

About: I am blessed with a sweet boy of my own and have had dogs in the house growing up. I have always had a natural touch with animals. For instance, my neighbor has a Saint Bernard who is not sure of humans in general but especially human males, however this dog becomes a giant puppy when I come around. I am a full time student doing school online so pet care can be done anytime in the mornings and afternoons and on any day except for Sundays. I have a fenced in yard at home, though I keep a watchful eye on my dog when he is outside. While inside, I keep anything that might catch his eye out of reach, and make sure he is always properly entertained. This happens to be easy for my dog since he loves antlers to chew on.

I look forward to making both your dogs and yours acquaintance. I have a super flexible schedule so I can make meeting and playing with your dog a priority. I work all over the city and am able to get to all parts of town. When taking care of your pet I will be fully engaged with them. I don't just let them out the door. I play, pet and make sure your dog is happy and having fun.

“They did a wonderful job watching our sweet girl Harper. Her 11th birthday fell during her stay and they gave her a full celebration. My dog mama heart felt so full. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart!”
“Catherine was great! Loved getting pictures of the love Maxie, our pup, was getting at her new second home. I wish my dog could talk, but I’m certain by her behavior and happiness she wants to go back to Catherine and her pups! Will be using her again in the future without a doubt!!”
“Yuki, my Frenchie, played hard with Ashley’s dog and other big dogs. He loved pool time and determined he would sleep in Ashley’s bed. He had such a good time that I don’t think he wants to come home! I rebooked with Ashley a couple weeks from now. She sent me pictures several times. I highly recommend her!”
“Jacqueline watched our big, very energetic golden Pyrenees 24/7 for 9 days and everything went great! She texted videos and pictures with updates every day and he seemed to have a great time. Will reach out next time we go on vacation!”
“A fantastic experience with Stevie watching my Darlin'. First time I've left her and she was very happy and well cared for when I picked her up. Much better experience than with previous pet. Would feel very comfortable leaving her with Stevie in future! Thanks!”
“Coney was fantastic and so easy to work with! This was our first time leaving our dog with a Rover sitter, and we were super nervous, but Coney made the experience stress-free. She was great at communicating, sent us daily photos, and made sure our pup was well cared for. We truly appreciated her updates and the peace of mind she provided. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Gail is THE BEST!! You can tell she really loves animals, especially the dogs. She made my Fredo feel very relaxed and at home under her care. She has a lovely home and makes all of the dogs she cares for very comfortable. I would use her again to watch Fredo. Fredo can't wait to go back to play with Sky! Thanks Gail.”
“Taylor always takes the best care of our doggo! She's great with timeliness and communication. She's also wonderful with her updates/pictures during longer stays.”
“This was our first time boarding our pup, so I was nervous. Mackenzie was great, providing pics and updates through the week! She has an obvious love for all dogs! Our pup had so much fun... and she's exhausted from all the playing. Thanks for easing this nervous pup mama's mind while on vacay!”
“Highly recommend. Was great with my dog and very easy to plan drop off/pick up. My dog loved it and good communication while he was staying there (pictures, updates, etc.).”
“This was our fist time boarding our dogs. They did great and loved Joseph. He made them feel comfortable right away. They came back happy and tired. Would definitely recommend Joseph.”
“Lona and Alan are very professional, great communicating throughout Dexter’s stay and welcome him into their home❤️ Thanks for taking such great care of him while we are gone!”
“Nathan is great & we're so glad we found him just before Thanksgiving to board our sweet Nola. He sent daily pics so we could see how she was doing and, when we returned, we picked up a very happy girl. If you're looking for a place to board your fur baby, this is it!”
“Noreen & family work very hard to make my dog comfortable when he stays there. Though he is always nervous when I leave him the pictures she sends assure me that he settles down and is comfortable. Always gets walks even though they also have fenced yard.”
“Rachel was amazing! She was very communicative and was graciously flexible with my travel schedule. The dogs loved her and had an amazing time! Will definitely use her again in the future. No concerns whatsoever.”
“Bandit was so happy and calm when I picked him up. It was very clear he was comfortable and well taken care of! She took him on several walks and sent many pictures. He was a HAPPY BOY!!”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 10 years old, including family pet care, professional pet care and personal pet care. I am experienced in dog walking, dog boarding, in home pet sitting and diabetic pets/sick pets. I have reliable transportation and am available at all times to give your pet the care they need! I am committed to being available at all times including weekends and evenings. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, so it doesn’t feel like a task, it’s something I intentionally build into my schedule to make sure pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I care for pets as if they were my own. I pay close attention to their individual routines, personalities, and needs, whether they’re in my home or a client’s home. This includes making sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise, and receive lots of affection and attention. I love animals, so I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, playing, going for walks, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I also keep a close eye on their behavior and health, and I follow any specific instructions the owner provides to ensure their pet feels happy and well cared for while they’re away. As a diabetic dog owner myself I am committed to giving your pet the best care I can!
“Nicole is hands-down the best dog sitter on Rover! She took amazing care of Freddy and Barney — they got to play with her dogs Gracie and Jac and had an absolute blast. Her home is warm, loving, and the perfect environment for any pup. She sent regular updates and tons of photos, which made being away so much easier. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and treats every dog like her own. Highly, highly recommend Nicole. Your pets will be in the best possible hands! 🐾”
“Laura was absolutely amazing with our big boy over the Christmas holiday season. She kept him for 8 days and never failed to send us pics and updates. It was appreciated that we got to see our boy while gone. He came home as happy as the day we dropped him off. Could not be any more happy with the care that was afforded him. Highly recommend!!”
