We absolutely loved boarding our wiggle butt, Harriet, with Jade! She was considerate and understanding of Harriet's background of reactivity and took the time to make sure she was comfortable. We loved the videos and pictures we received while we were away from our girl! It is so refreshing to know our dog was in safe, loving hands while we were on our honeymoon. Thank you, Jade, you are an amazing human!

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: 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.

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.

Karissa is an amazing dog sitter. She was so patient with my shy dog and took great care of her while I was out of town. I have also used her for dog day camp. She sends multiple photos every day with updates. She obviously cares for the animals. 10/10! I recommend her highly!

First time using Rover and can’t express enough what a wonderful experience it was. Ashley and Wesley treated my fur babies as if they were their own. I received multiple pictures of Charlie and Hunter running with other pups, playing tug, playing fetch, all around having good ole time just being pups. Ashley and Wesley went above working with me to pick my pups up. They truly love dogs. I highly recommend them. Best way to describe it, Summer Camp for Pups!!! Thank Ashley and Wesley for a wonder week not only for my pups but for myself having peace of mind knowing they were truly being spoiled and having adventure of their own! I will be a repeat customer.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

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: What sets me apart as a cat sitter is my patience, calm personality, and understanding that cats need trust, comfort, and consistency to feel safe. I respect each cat’s unique personality — whether they’re playful and social, shy and cautious, independent, elderly, or anxious when their owner is away. I pay close attention to routines, behavior changes, eating habits, litter box habits, and overall comfort to help cats stay relaxed and stress-free in their familiar environment. I know that even small changes in behavior can matter, so I’m very observant and attentive. I also have experience with: Senior cat care and gentle handling Kittens and younger cats needing extra supervision and play Shy, anxious, or slow-to-warm-up cats Feeding schedules and medication reminders Interactive playtime and enrichment Maintaining clean litter boxes and tidy living spaces Providing regular photo/video updates for peace of mind What truly makes me different is that I don’t just “check in” on pets — I focus on building trust and making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I’m dependable, communicative, compassionate, and committed to treating every cat like family.

She came home calm and content after a day of running around like a puppy should. We will be boarding soon as well, and I’m glad to know our puppy is in amazing care while we travel.

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. She was also an amazing professional dog groomer and I spent a large chunk of my time with her and learning from her. I like puppies but I have a love for older dogs. 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.

About: I enjoy dog walks and play. I love to also be able to groom if need be to keep our fur babies happy and healthy and looking good! Cuddle time is my favorite time too! Monday through Thursday I work a split shift where I normally have 11am-2pm available to do any running I need to do. I have Fridays completely off from my full time job as well! My pups get fed twice a day, and my cats get one big full bowl to munch on through the day. I clean my little boxes 2-3 times a week and I also go into my yard to clean up dog poo as well! Our pets get so much love and cuddles, along with weekly baths! They love to through around the ball, or play tug or war!

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: What sets me apart is the level of genuine care, patience, and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every animal has a different personality, comfort level, routine, and emotional need, so I focus on creating a calm, safe, loving environment where pets feel secure while their owners are away. I’m especially good with anxious, shy, high-energy, and routine-oriented pets because I’m very observant, patient, and consistent. I pay close attention to behavior changes, body language, eating habits, medication schedules, and overall comfort to make sure pets stay happy and stress-free. I also have experience with: Senior pet care and slower-paced walks Puppies and younger pets who need patience, structure, and consistency Maintaining feeding schedules and routines Providing companionship, playtime, and emotional comfort Keeping homes clean, organized, and safe during stays Giving regular photo/video updates so owners feel reassured People describe me as dependable, calm under pressure, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone who is not only responsible, but genuinely caring and attentive. My goal is always to make both pets and owners feel comfortable, safe, and confident. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I have a very open and flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the day and week for walks, drop-ins, boarding, feeding schedules, playtime, companionship, and overnight care when needed. Since I’m home often, pets receive plenty of attention, supervision, consistency, and care rather than being left alone for long periods. I enjoy creating a calm, comfortable environment where pets can feel safe, relaxed, and part of the household routine. I’m also dependable with maintaining routines such as feeding times, potty breaks, exercise, medications, and regular updates for owners. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make sure each pet gets individualized attention, patience, affection, and proper care based on their needs and personality. I provide a calm, safe, and structured environment where pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, supervision, and affection. Since I live on a farm with open space and a peaceful setting, pets have room to enjoy fresh air, walks, playtime, and a lower-stress environment while still being safely supervised at all times. In my home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, medications, rest time, and any special instructions from the owner. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, energy level, and comfort needs so they feel secure and cared for while away from home. For walks and activity, I adjust based on the pet’s age, health, and temperament — whether that means active play for energetic dogs, slower walks for senior pets, or extra patience with anxious animals. Safety is always my top priority. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s space. I make sure pets receive reliable care, companionship, exercise, fresh food and water, clean-up, and lots of attention while helping maintain a calm, clean environment. I also provide regular photo and video updates so owners can feel reassured while they’re away. What’s most important to me is making pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for no matter where they are.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I started caring for pets around age 6 and have continued ever since. I’ve worked in an animal shelter, giving me experience with a wide range of behaviors, personalities, and care needs. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for exotics such as reptiles, spiders, and birds. I treat every pet like my own and tailor my care to what makes them feel safest and happiest. Im currently available 5 days a week could do some check ins on weekends. Im unable to to boarding but can dog walk and check on pets. I am a single mother so I do have to make time for my daughter on top of loving many animals. Most days I am available after 8:30am to 2:30pm sometimes until 5pm. I have a fenced yard i would habe to do a meet and greet with the pets in my household and other pets from other homes first if I had them stay with me.

We absolutely loved boarding our wiggle butt, Harriet, with Jade! She was considerate and understanding of Harriet's background of reactivity and took the time to make sure she was comfortable. We loved the videos and pictures we received while we were away from our girl! It is so refreshing to know our dog was in safe, loving hands while we were on our honeymoon. Thank you, Jade, you are an amazing human!

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.

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.

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.

Karissa is an amazing dog sitter. She was so patient with my shy dog and took great care of her while I was out of town. I have also used her for dog day camp. She sends multiple photos every day with updates. She obviously cares for the animals. 10/10! I recommend her highly!

First time using Rover and can’t express enough what a wonderful experience it was. Ashley and Wesley treated my fur babies as if they were their own. I received multiple pictures of Charlie and Hunter running with other pups, playing tug, playing fetch, all around having good ole time just being pups. Ashley and Wesley went above working with me to pick my pups up. They truly love dogs. I highly recommend them. Best way to describe it, Summer Camp for Pups!!! Thank Ashley and Wesley for a wonder week not only for my pups but for myself having peace of mind knowing they were truly being spoiled and having adventure of their own! I will be a repeat customer.

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.
