“Jade was a very great fit to watch and take care of Dozer! She kept me up dated and sent me pictures of him! I will definitely recommend her and use her again if I go on! Dozer is very happy and sleepy after his couple night stay with her!”
About: I am a retired Groomer and have a nice and safe area for multiple pets to play, inside and outside. I will provide a loving home for your pets while you are away. I work from home and I am available to provide care for your pets 24 hours a day and 7 days a week in my home. I have a large fenced in yard, patio and garage that they can play in at any time. Pets are welcome in my home and i have multiple beds for them, or you are welcome to bring their own.
“Freckles was well taken care of and we had no worries leaving him with Dave. We received pictures and updates daily and will definitely use Dave going forward when we need a sitter!”
About: My husband and I will be working together to host doggy day care and boarding. With both of our schedules we will have plenty of time to spend with your pets! Hi, I’m Bree! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and for the past 8 years I’ve worked professionally caring for them in many different settings. I spent 5 years working as a veterinary technician, giving me experience with medications, animal behavior, emergency situations, and CPR. I’ve worked with small animals, exotics, wildlife, and large animals, and I’ve also fostered countless puppies and kittens over the years. Because of my background, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs — whether that means an energetic puppy, a nervous rescue, or a senior pet needing extra attention. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are safe, loved, and cared for like family while they’re away. I understand how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your animals, and I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and compassionate with every pet I meet. I love to hear about owners caretaking strategies so that I’m able to duplicate those qualities! We want to make your animals feel comfortable and loved while you’re away.
“Dog mommas, you’ve found your gal! Karissa and her family are truly a gem!!! We’ve avoided traveling because we can’t stomach leaving our fur baby Cozmo in a sterile boarding facility since our parents haven’t been able to watch him anymore. Karissa provides Cozmo with such a comfortable and fun home away from home, fur friends to play with, and a family who loves him like he’s one of their own 🥹 This was the second time she’s dogsat Cozmo and when we pulled up, we said “do you want to go see Karissa and your friends?”, then his tail was wagging so fast and he was barking to go inside! he was so excited!!! The frequent updates, pictures, and videos from her always sets our minds so at ease. Karissa is the best dog sitter ever-worth every penny AND MORE! Cozmo is a bit spoiled/pampered, and to us, rightfully so. If you can relate to that, you’ll know that the peace of mind in knowing when you’re away that they’re being loved and taken care of like you would is truly PRICELESS! We couldn’t be more grateful and are going to start booking monthly whether we’re traveling or not, because we know Cozmo has such a good time at his sleepovers! 🥰 Thank you x 1,000 once again to you Karissa! ❤️”
About: I have been dog owners for over 20 years. I work from home full time. I live on a 5 acre gated property. I have a 2 year old neutered Golden Retriever who loves to play with other dogs. I work from home so I can facilitate potty breaks when needed. I am off work by 4 or 5 everyday and off on weekends. I do have a crate if needed. I do not have a fenced yard so would always walk your pet on a leash. Pets would never be left unsupervised.
About: i have genuine love for animals. i feel like i connect with them on a deep level, and animals have always loved me as much as i love them. i have never had a paid animal sitting job, however, i have owned and taken care of them my entire life, and many occasions, i’ve helped family members with animal sitting. I work part time, and my son has therapy on Tuesdays/Thurs. He is autistic. I’m just looking for a few little boarding or drop ins jobs here and there on Fridays, Saturdays, & potentially some sundays. preferably after 3 pm. I have a fenced in yard in the back of my home if they come to my home. They are also welcome in the house, but i would prefer they be potty trained or atleast someone be working on it with them. If it’s a drop in at your home, I will do whatever it is that you need. As stated, they will be so very well cared for and i will treat them like i do my own.
“Taryn was very accommodating for my two corgis. I was a little worried at first because one of my dogs can be a little aggressive toward new dogs. Taryn was able to introduce the dogs properly and assured me that she would be able to separate them if there was ever any issues. Everything worked out fine and my boys received all the love and attention they needed.”
“Ashley wasted out Shepsky while we were on a float trip. She sent pictures. Jersey made herself right at home next to the chair. Her children played with her. Will definitely book her again.”
“I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with Ashley and her family overnight. She sent me lots of pictures throughout the day to let me see he was having a great time. And he came back super tired from playing with all his friends! We will definitely use Ashley again.”
About: My house is full of love and my dogs will surely keep your pets entertained they are friendly with almost everyone and the indoor and indoor/outdoor cats have been around many dogs and other animals with no problems in addition the rodents and birds areas can be closed off so your pet has no experience with those animals to keep all pets happy and healthy. I grew up on a farm so I have experience with cows, goats, rabbits, geese, ducks, chickens, guinea pigs, hamsters, dogs and cats. When I turned 17 I started my zoo as my father calls it, I have 11 animals. I started with a simple one cat and one dog. In 2023 I increased the number from 2 pets to 5 getting a Chinchilla and two cats one showing up at my front door and another surrendered to me after I friend couldn’t care for him anymore. Then in the beginning of 2025 another friend moved and couldn’t bring her birds so we took in 3 parakeets which they do better in pairs so we bought one to make it 4 and then a couple months later we were finally able to find a second chinchilla so that nether was lonely because they are also better in pairs also. Lastly number 11 I had been thinking about for awhile I always wanted a lot of dogs being a big dog person so my 11th pet we got at the beginning of 2026 she is a 6 month old border collie. I currently work part-time in the evenings so I’m free every morning and all weekend depending on the weekend. I can also be available any day by request but my days off are always Sunday, Monday, Friday, Saturday. I live in a rural area with a large space for dogs to play we have a 5 year old small medium pit-terrier mix and a 6 month old border collie. I also have a variety of pets so I have knowledge on how to care for birds, rodents, fish, cats and of course dogs large and small.
About: I’ve been an avid animal lover since I was very young. Always took the initiative to care for them and have continued into my adults years. Looking to do this on rover to fulfill an opportunity to love on your pets without having to add them permanently to my home (it’s a problem- I would have a farm). Looking to do this to establish relationships with other pet families. I work from home. I am home almost all day everyday. I could be to your home at whatever time and needs you want. Happy to assist! I would love them as my own! They will never have a dry water bowl, they will get all the lovins they need and I look forward to walks and other adventures.
About: I’ve stayed home alone with cats and dogs and had to take care of them. I absolutely love cats and dogs and always go to pet stores to look at them. I always walk up to stray cats and dogs to feed them. I’ve never had any problems from family members in the past from sitting their own animals. I’m currently a student in college. Trying to make a living for myself. And I figured I love cats and dogs so why not watch them and earn money! Back home I have a dog and a puppy that play around a fenced yard. I have been around them on my own waking up early, to feed them and let them outside to go potty or play. And then have to watch them all day.

About: I have had cats in my home since I was 3. I particularly like cats because you can’t make them like you as easily. I love learning each cats different body language and learning their personalities. I am a pro at administering meds and injections. And no… I won’t get offended if your cat doesn’t like me right away. Lol

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. I’m a Big advocate on animal rescue. I have watched friends and families animals when they go out of town. I currently work part time as a server. I would like to transition into pet care full-time. after the new year. Making myself available to come to you is something I think is important so you and your pet feel more comfortable in your own surroundings. I would care for your pet in your home along with your pet routine. I know how important it is for your pet to stay on their routine. With you being gone it will help ease pet anxiety, if they have it.
About: I have 3 very different cats. I have a 5 year old grey tabby who is quite a character she is the alpha of this house until a stranger comes in no matter if it’s a stranger animal or person she will hide until she thinks it’s safe and is very cautious outside staying by her brother’s side if she is unsure of something. My second cat showed up on my door late at night she is a beautiful cat she is a diluted tortie but really she’s a blonde through and through I think she must be on her 8th life by now she does not make smart choices she likely wouldn’t survive a day without her humans. My last cat he is very independent if it was up to him he’d live outside always but only if it never rained or snowed. He keeps the rodent population down in the area and keeps his sister from getting in fights protecting her since he is a bigger cat but he comes home every night to sleep with his mama no matter how much he enjoys going outside he knows one MEOOOOOOOW by the door will get him outside. So in summary I have experience with indoor, indoor-outdoor and outdoor cats. And my cats eat a bit of kibble and smalls which is a frozen fresh food so I won’t mind meeting your cats special food needs because dogs are not the only ones who deserve human grade food.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of personal care, attention, and reliability I bring to every pet I look after. I don’t just “watch” pets — I get to know them, build trust, and treat them like my own. With a background in business management, I’m extremely organized and dependable, so pet parents can always count on clear communication and consistent care. I also have a naturally calm and caring energy that animals respond well to, and I take the time to understand each pet’s unique needs, routines, and quirks. Whether it’s sticking to a medication schedule, keeping pets engaged and active, or simply making them feel safe while their humans are away, I go above and beyond to make sure they’re happy and comfortable. Pet care fits into my daily needs because I already structure my day around caring for my dog. Add I’m very active and being around dogs gives me another reason to enjoy it! I care for my pets by making sure all their physical and emotional needs are met every day. That means sticking to regular feeding schedules, providing fresh water, making time for daily walks or playtime, and ensuring they get plenty of affection and attention. I also pay close attention to their behavior, so I can quickly spot if something seems off — whether it's a change in mood, appetite, or energy level. Beyond the basics, I truly enjoy creating a safe, calm, and happy environment where they feel loved and understood. Every pet has their own personality, and I love getting to know what makes each one feel most comfortable and cared for.
About: My current job involves taking care of all types of animals, and I have had many types of pets my whole life. Reptiles, furry friends, small animals, birds, fish, etc. I know basic(and in most cases, more than that) care for majority of pets. Im comfortable with all kinds, furry, or scaly! I have a full time job, and schedule changes every week. Im often working evenings, so mornings are most open for me. Although I am flexible, and able, to move my schedule around. I have reliable transportation, and i'm comfortable coming to your home to care for your pet. I am okay walking, feeding, checking in on, etc., any pets you may have. I love all animals!
About: I have had pets all my life. Cats, dogs, reptiles, fish, hampsters.. the list goes on. I was in Human healthcare and found its not much different. I can help with your pet care needs. My work schedule can be flexible so I can adjust it to fit most pet needs so you can plan that vacation free from worry. I have a fenced in area and a designated space in my house I call the “pet room” . My house resembles someone who has a 2 yr old but instead of kid toys and beds it’s dog and cat toys.
About: I have 10 plus years of experience training, breeding, and caring for dogs aging puppy to adult years and small to medium size. My family previously owned a dog boarding kennel in which we provided obedience training, leash training, and anger management and redirecting negative behaviors. I am currently a stay at home wife so I have immense time on my hands. Daily Dog walking, drop in visits, overnights, etc are all on the table, therefore I have full availability every weekday and weekend. With lots of tender love and care. I treat animals that I oversee as if they are my own. I love on them, feed them, exercise them exactly as you would yourself so that they are not outside of normal routine and are not lacking of anything while you aren’t able to be home for them!
About: Friends and family always joke that if I could own a zoo, I would certainly have one. I’ve had my own dogs since I was old enough to convince my mom it would be a good idea. 5 fur babies I claim as my own, my two and my boyfriends 3. That’s a lot of dog hair! I have experience in oral medication administration, grooming, surgical aftercare, and experience working with both puppies and large dogs alike. I have experience working with dogs who have anxiety courtesy of my pup Willow, and continue to learn a lot along the way. Experience working with dietary restrictions due to health issues, and the special needs of those whose hair is turning grey. I love providing enrichment for my pups, mental stimulation is key! I am currently available most weekdays for drop ins and walks between 10am and 4pm, and on weekends I have mostly open availability. I would love to get to know you and your pup and develop a routine if you’re looking for regular services! Though I don’t offer boarding in my home currently, safe practices are of the utmost importance to me when it comes to the health and security of your pets and your peace of mind when you’re away from them. I am comfortable with re-securing kennel and crate trained dogs, and am effective at coaxing those who aren’t so fond of their crate. One of our pups is an extremely large and loving Great Pyrenees and she’s about as stubborn as a mule, but she responds better to me than the rest of her two footed family members! If your baby has a strict feeding schedule or timed medication doses, I am very mindful of this when working with them, and will thoroughly follow any set feeding guidelines or dosages that are laid out. Every dog has their own unique personality and quirks that make them special, and sometimes those quirks can lead to pet parent concern, I love to get to know a dog’s personality from their owners, because it helps me to work with them in providing the best care possible for their needs by knowing how they respond in different situations or interactions. Communication is key! I harness and recall trained my dogs, and know that both are an important combination to maintaining safety when out of the home. If you have a reactive dog who’s in need of some exercise, rest assured that I will keep their safety as well as the safety of others in mind when out on a walk. Maintaining distance and providing redirection if and when needed.
About: I’m an RVT that is wanting to help look after your little kiddos! I’ve been in the vet field for almost 9 years, I’m good with all types of pets, especially dogs and cats I’m currently switching to a new job so I have plenty of availability at the moment. I can stay overnights if needed or just stop by during the day. I’m able to walk your dogs and play with cats. Im very capable of giving medications if needed or just hanging out with your little kiddos
“Leigh's care for our senior cat, Diesel, was truly remarkable! She is an absolute gem! During our vacation, she provided 7 days of outstanding care for our 18-year-old senior cat, Diesel. The level of communication was excellent! Leigh kept us updated multiple times a day about Diesel's well-being. Coming home to a spotless house after a long day of travel was the perfect ending to vacation. She went above and beyond in caring for Diesel and our home and exceeded all expectations. We are deeply grateful to have found Leigh; she's far more than a pet sitter to us—she's a remarkable human who provided the best care possible for Diesel.”
“Madison was an exceptional Caretaker for my elderly cat while I was on vacation. In addition to his basic care and needs, she gave him medication twice daily. She took the time to send daily updates and pictures, that assured me he was in great hands!! I could also see that he greatly enjoyed her company too! She went above and beyond, allowing me to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing he was getting the best care and companionship. I will absolutely book again with Madison and I highly recommend her!!!”
“We're new to the area, and needed a sitter to take care of our four cats while we drove our car cross country to our new home. I'm so glad we found Diane! She took amazing care of our two geriatric cats who need pills and injections, and gave us assurance that they were on track with their meds. We got so many excellent photos at each visit, and we knew that our babies were getting lots of play and cuddle time. We'll be repeat customers with Diane again - highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I’m Gaby, a full-time professional pet sitter and lifelong animal lover. Caring for animals isn’t a side job for me, it’s full time job and passion! One of the biggest benefits of booking with me is that I do this full-time, which means your pets receive far more attention, companionship, and supervision than they would with sitters who work traditional 9–5 jobs or are in and out all day. Your pets won’t be left alone for long stretches of the day, and their comfort, safety, and routine will always be my top priority. I have professional experience working in daycare and boarding environments, including Kennelwood Animal Resort and Y Bark Alone. Through that experience, I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. I’m comfortable administering medications (both oral and injections), handling puppies, seniors, and special-needs pets, and recognizing signs that a pet may be stressed, anxious, or unwell. When I watch your babies, they aren’t just another booking. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, favorite activities, and any special instructions so they can feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they receive the individualized care they deserve. You’ll receive tons of pupdates, photos, and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, safe, and in caring hands. My goal is to become the sitter you can rely on whenever you need help, a trusted person who treats your pets like family and provides the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own! I look forward to meeting you and your furbabies!🐶🐾 Rover is my full time job at the moment so my schedule is very open to give your pet the proper time and attention they deserve. How I care for your fur baby is completely contingent on the owner. I follow all guidelines they have set in place whatever those may be. But you can trust they are always in the best of hands.
“TeAsia did an amazing job looking after my cat. He was very comfortable and happy with her, and adjusted very well. Avani my cat is usually very shy and has a longer time adjusting to new environments, but it seemed like he adjusted very fast, made himself right at home as soon as i dropped him off, and had a lot of fun! She is a great communicator, trust worthy, and will send plenty of videos and photos of your pet. I’ll be booking with her again in the future!”

“My husband and I have never gone anywhere without our precious Molly. We have our son’s destination wedding to attend this month. We have both agonized over leaving Molly behind. A kennel or doggy day care was definitely out of the question. I had heard of Rover so we checked it out. Karissa is a Godsend. Her yard is perfect, she is affectionate and I know in my heart Molly will be exceptionally well cared for. We dropped Molly off this week for a trial day before leaving her a whole week. Karissa kept us updated with pictures and notes throughout the stay. Finding Karissa has eased our anxiety about leaving Molly. I highly recommend checking with Karissa if you are looking for a passionate, reliable sitter.”

About: I have always had at least one animal in my home since I was born. My grandmother showed dogs and I would often help her get them trained and groomed.

I have experience administering meds and injections. I work part time, on the weekends and I go to college full time. In the summer I work 5 days a week but based on your needs I can fit your furry friend into my schedule. I like to have a little list of things that you would think is important like the vet you want them to go to if your baby gets hurt, a feeding schedule, and anything that you may have concerns about while I stay at your house. I treat all of the animals I watch as they are my own babies and think it’s important to gain the trust of them while at your home, so they feel more comfortable.

Experience working with dietary restrictions due to health issues, and the special needs of those whose hair is turning grey. I love providing enrichment for my pups, mental stimulation is key! I am currently available most weekdays for drop ins and walks between 10am and 4pm, and on weekends I have mostly open availability. I would love to get to know you and your pup and develop a routine if you’re looking for regular services! Though I don’t offer boarding in my home currently, safe practices are of the utmost importance to me when it comes to the health and security of your pets and your peace of mind when you’re away from them. I am comfortable with re-securing kennel and crate trained dogs, and am effective at coaxing those who aren’t so fond of their crate. One of our pups is an extremely large and loving Great Pyrenees and she’s about as stubborn as a mule, but she responds better to me than the rest of her two footed family members! If your baby has a strict feeding schedule or timed medication doses, I am very mindful of this when working with them, and will thoroughly follow any set feeding guidelines or dosages that are laid out. Every dog has their own unique personality and quirks that make them special, and sometimes those quirks can lead to pet parent concern, I love to get to know a dog’s personality from their owners, because it helps me to work with them in providing the best care possible for their needs by knowing how they respond in different situations or interactions. Communication is key! I harness and recall trained my dogs, and know that both are an important combination to maintaining safety when out of the home. If you have a reactive dog who’s in need of some exercise, rest assured that I will keep their safety as well as the safety of others in mind when out on a walk. Maintaining distance and providing redirection if and when needed.

About: I love dogs! All dogs... big, small, smelly, playful. I have experience caring for my own dogs as well as other's. Dogs generally love me as well. I learned most of what I know about caring for dogs from The Dog Whisperer. He really knows his stuff! Does your dog need walks and some extra training? I can handle that no problem and really enjoy seeing a dog respond to training and play. I use positive reinforcement while working with dogs. I love walking for fitness and love it even more when I have a pup to join me. While pet sitting, I can also care for plants, etc. I enjoy gardening so if you have a garden and require house/pet sitting, consider me your person! My schedule is very flexible. I currently work gig jobs and freelance, remote accounting projects. If I am house/pet sitting for you I can accommodate whatever schedule your animals usually follow. I will follow whatever rules/instructions are laid out for me. Safety is number 1 and I am sure to keep owners updated on any issues promptly.

About: Hi! I’m Gaby, a full-time professional pet sitter and lifelong animal lover. Caring for animals isn’t a side job for me, it’s full time job and passion! One of the biggest benefits of booking with me is that I do this full-time, which means your pets receive far more attention, companionship, and supervision than they would with sitters who work traditional 9–5 jobs or are in and out all day. Your pets won’t be left alone for long stretches of the day, and their comfort, safety, and routine will always be my top priority. I have professional experience working in daycare and boarding environments, including Kennelwood Animal Resort and Y Bark Alone. Through that experience, I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. I’m comfortable administering medications (both oral and injections), handling puppies, seniors, and special-needs pets, and recognizing signs that a pet may be stressed, anxious, or unwell. When I watch your babies, they aren’t just another booking. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, favorite activities, and any special instructions so they can feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they receive the individualized care they deserve. You’ll receive tons of pupdates, photos, and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, safe, and in caring hands. My goal is to become the sitter you can rely on whenever you need help, a trusted person who treats your pets like family and provides the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own! I look forward to meeting you and your furbabies!🐶🐾 Rover is my full time job at the moment so my schedule is very open to give your pet the proper time and attention they deserve. How I care for your fur baby is completely contingent on the owner. I follow all guidelines they have set in place whatever those may be. But you can trust they are always in the best of hands.

About: I am a retired Groomer and have a nice and safe area for multiple pets to play, inside and outside. I will provide a loving home for your pets while you are away.

About: My husband and I will be working together to host doggy day care and boarding. With both of our schedules we will have plenty of time to spend with your pets! Hi, I’m Bree! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and for the past 8 years I’ve worked professionally caring for them in many different settings. I spent 5 years working as a veterinary technician, giving me experience with medications, animal behavior, emergency situations, and CPR. I’ve worked with small animals, exotics, wildlife, and large animals, and I’ve also fostered countless puppies and kittens over the years. Because of my background, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs — whether that means an energetic puppy, a nervous rescue, or a senior pet needing extra attention. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are safe, loved, and cared for like family while they’re away. I understand how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your animals, and I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and compassionate with every pet I meet. I love to hear about owners caretaking strategies so that I’m able to duplicate those qualities! We want to make your animals feel comfortable and loved while you’re away.
“Dog mommas, you’ve found your gal! Karissa and her family are truly a gem!!! We’ve avoided traveling because we can’t stomach leaving our fur baby Cozmo in a sterile boarding facility since our parents haven’t been able to watch him anymore. Karissa provides Cozmo with such a comfortable and fun home away from home, fur friends to play with, and a family who loves him like he’s one of their own 🥹 This was the second time she’s dogsat Cozmo and when we pulled up, we said “do you want to go see Karissa and your friends?”, then his tail was wagging so fast and he was barking to go inside! he was so excited!!! The frequent updates, pictures, and videos from her always sets our minds so at ease. Karissa is the best dog sitter ever-worth every penny AND MORE! Cozmo is a bit spoiled/pampered, and to us, rightfully so. If you can relate to that, you’ll know that the peace of mind in knowing when you’re away that they’re being loved and taken care of like you would is truly PRICELESS! We couldn’t be more grateful and are going to start booking monthly whether we’re traveling or not, because we know Cozmo has such a good time at his sleepovers! 🥰 Thank you x 1,000 once again to you Karissa! ❤️”
About: I have been dog owners for over 20 years. I work from home full time. I live on a 5 acre gated property. I have a 2 year old neutered Golden Retriever who loves to play with other dogs. I work from home so I can facilitate potty breaks when needed. I am off work by 4 or 5 everyday and off on weekends. I do have a crate if needed. I do not have a fenced yard so would always walk your pet on a leash. Pets would never be left unsupervised.
“Taryn was very accommodating for my two corgis. I was a little worried at first because one of my dogs can be a little aggressive toward new dogs. Taryn was able to introduce the dogs properly and assured me that she would be able to separate them if there was ever any issues. Everything worked out fine and my boys received all the love and attention they needed.”
“Ashley wasted out Shepsky while we were on a float trip. She sent pictures. Jersey made herself right at home next to the chair. Her children played with her. Will definitely book her again.”
“I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with Ashley and her family overnight. She sent me lots of pictures throughout the day to let me see he was having a great time. And he came back super tired from playing with all his friends! We will definitely use Ashley again.”
About: My house is full of love and my dogs will surely keep your pets entertained they are friendly with almost everyone and the indoor and indoor/outdoor cats have been around many dogs and other animals with no problems in addition the rodents and birds areas can be closed off so your pet has no experience with those animals to keep all pets happy and healthy. I grew up on a farm so I have experience with cows, goats, rabbits, geese, ducks, chickens, guinea pigs, hamsters, dogs and cats. When I turned 17 I started my zoo as my father calls it, I have 11 animals. I started with a simple one cat and one dog. In 2023 I increased the number from 2 pets to 5 getting a Chinchilla and two cats one showing up at my front door and another surrendered to me after I friend couldn’t care for him anymore. Then in the beginning of 2025 another friend moved and couldn’t bring her birds so we took in 3 parakeets which they do better in pairs so we bought one to make it 4 and then a couple months later we were finally able to find a second chinchilla so that nether was lonely because they are also better in pairs also. Lastly number 11 I had been thinking about for awhile I always wanted a lot of dogs being a big dog person so my 11th pet we got at the beginning of 2026 she is a 6 month old border collie. I currently work part-time in the evenings so I’m free every morning and all weekend depending on the weekend. I can also be available any day by request but my days off are always Sunday, Monday, Friday, Saturday. I live in a rural area with a large space for dogs to play we have a 5 year old small medium pit-terrier mix and a 6 month old border collie. I also have a variety of pets so I have knowledge on how to care for birds, rodents, fish, cats and of course dogs large and small.
