Our dog had a great very with Jennifer. She was very warm to both our pup and us, and assured us that he would be well taken care of. We met her pets (1 dog, 2 cats) before we booked and felt comfortable that our boy was in good hands. Jen was great about communicating every day we were gone. Our dog clearly had a good time and came back to us healthy and happy.

About: I love dogs and I love spending time outdoors with them. I have two dogs of my own that are my whole entire world! I have dog sat for friends and family plenty of times, and I also have a part-time job at a daycare/boarding place. I would love to meet your pets and be able to take care of them when you are out of town. Thank you in advance for the opportunity! I work during the week 8am-5pm with an hour lunch break that I come home for to take my dogs outside. I also have a part-time job at a dog boarding/daycare on the weekends, those shifts are 6:45-10am and 2:15-5pm. I have a 6 ft privacy fence and two male dogs that love to play outside or love a good nap! In a client's home I follow instructions carefully and treat things and animals as if they are my own.

About: With nearly a decade of hands-on dog training experience and a genuine passion for animal care, I bring a unique blend of expertise and compassion to pet sitting. My background includes meaningful work at an animal shelter, where I developed a deep understanding of dogs and cats with diverse temperaments—and I particularly thrive working with animals that need extra patience and trust-building. As someone who lives on a farm, I'm comfortable with all kinds of animals and understand their individual needs. When your dog visits, they'll enjoy safe outdoor time in a secure, fenced area where they can play freely and comfortably. I approach every animal with both patience and gentle firmness, creating an environment where they feel secure and cared for. Your furry family member won't just be looked after—they'll be loved and understood. I'm a stay-at-home mom, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I'm home throughout the day and can provide attentive, flexible care for your dog and/or cat whenever you need it. Whether it's a quick midday visit, an extended playdate, or overnight care, I can accommodate your schedule without the constraints of a traditional work day. Being home means your pet gets consistent attention, regular bathroom breaks, and the comfort of a calm, nurturing environment. I can also be responsive to last-minute requests or changes—something that's often difficult for sitters with rigid schedules. Your dog will receive the same patient, loving care I give to my own animals, with the added benefit of my availability and flexibility as a stay-at-home caregiver. I offer comprehensive pet care services tailored to what works best for you and your pet. Here's how I approach each: Boarding & Pet Sitting at My Home Your pet will be part of our family during their stay. I provide a calm, safe environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and outdoor time in our secure fenced area. My farm setting offers a peaceful atmosphere where dogs can relax and enjoy enrichment activities. I maintain consistent routines for feeding, bathroom breaks, and exercise to keep your pet comfortable and stress-free. Pet Sitting at Your Home I visit your home to care for your pet in their familiar environment, which many animals prefer. I follow your established routines and care instructions closely, ensuring minimal disruption. I provide exercise, companionship, and all necessary care while also keeping an eye on your home—a reassuring bonus when you're away. Dog Walking I offer energizing walks tailored to your dog's age, energy level, and temperament. Whether your pup needs a brisk adventure or a leisurely neighborhood stroll, I ensure they get the exercise and mental stimulation they need while you're busy. House Sitting When you travel, I stay at your home to care for your pets and watch over your property. Your dog gets consistent, attentive care in their own space, and you have peace of mind knowing both your pet and home are in trusted, capable hands. No matter which service you choose, your pet receives patient, loving care and the individual attention they deserve.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for 8 years I have my own dog who just turned 2. The very first dog I ever adopted was kind of “scary” looking and played aggressively she was very sassy and didn’t enjoy the company of other dogs or people (she sadly passed away 2 years ago). While my current puppers is hyper active but has extreme anxiety and loves being around people and other pets. I also often petsit my best friends doggo who is a senior and disabled, he can’t use his back two legs and has a lot of medical issues. I know and understand how to work with dogs of all personalities :) I’m working on getting my GED right now so I have a lot of free time lately. I can work on my classes any time during the day so my schedule is pretty open. I can kennel your dog if needed, take them on walks, feed them, play with them, even cuddle with them!! Our fur babies get lonely too!

Our animals clearly LOVED her and were happy and well-cared-for when we returned. We can't say enough good things about her warmth, reliability, and genuine love for animals. Thank you, Alex—we'll definitely be booking with you again!

Elsie was amazing. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She reliably came twice a day as requested and took excellent care of my kitties. She tidied up after them, made sure food & water was readily available, gave lots of pets and treats. She went above & beyond and even utilized a video chat so I could see them. I highly recommend her and will book her every time.

Alecia was incredibly caring, organized, and very attentive with my cats.🐱 Every day she kept me informed about how everything was at home and also sent me photos of them, which made me feel very calm and reassured during my time away. She not only took care of them and administered their medication, but also made sure their water bowls were always clean. She went above and beyond by taking extra time to clean the litter boxes, clean up vomit, sweep, and keep the mat tidy. These are the kinds of details that truly make a difference.✨️ She played with them, spoiled them, and cared for them with so much love and dedication. Alecia is very kind, respectful, and warm in her communication, which builds even more trust. 🌸 Without a doubt, I highly recommend her for taking care of your furry loved ones.🐾 It’s very comforting to know that someone like her exists someone who can care for your pets as if you were there yourself. It’s clear that she truly loves what she does, and her work is simply outstanding ✨️.

Jennifer was absolutely FANTASTIC. My little Dimitri is afraid of everything and everyone. He never comes out of his carrier when we take him places. But when he was with Jennifer he actually came out of his carrier and went exploring. He wasn’t completely frazzled when I came and picked him up. Her animals were sweet and gentle. Jennifer herself was very kind. I am pleased at how nice she was and how comfortable my cute little Dimitri kitty was. I’m definitely looking forward to working with her again.

About: My professional experience with animal care started with 2019 when I worked at a horse breeder. I then worked at a vet clinic for a year and a half as a kennel technician. I helped handle animals of ALL different kinds and learned so much! After that, I was a manager at a dog daycare and boarding facility for over 3 years. I was responsible for the health, safety, and happiness of our pups at our facility. As well as the pups that we walked and took care of in their homes. I have also been dog first aid and CPR trained and certified for almost 3 years ⛑️ I work full time M-F 8:30-5:30 so I am available for overnight stays, evening/late night check ins, and weekend care! ☺️ I am more than likely available to take last minute bookings! I will be unable to care for pets in my own home due to the fact that I live in an apartment. However, I am available to pet/house sit and will provide the following: Basic Care (food, water, potty) Walks (if applicable) Regular potty breaks Overnight stay Play time

We were in town for a wedding and needed someone we could trust to take care of our dog, Dougie, while we were away. Alexia was absolutely amazing! She came to our hotel the evening before to meet us, get to know Dougie, and learn about his routine and needs. That immediately gave us peace of mind. The next day, while we were at the wedding, she visited him twice at the hotel. She took him for walks, played with him, gave him lots of attention, and made sure he was comfortable and happy. Throughout the day, Alexia sent us thoughtful updates and adorable pictures, which meant so much to us. Knowing Dougie was being so well cared for allowed us to fully enjoy the wedding without worrying. We are incredibly grateful for Alexia’s kindness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, we can’t recommend her enough. Thank you, Alexia! You are the best!

Elisie was wonderful! We booked last minute, and she was very flexible and responsive. She gave our pup lots of attention and even adjusted for extreme weather—we had a blizzard and 90 degree weather all in the same week! We’d definitely recommend her and would happily have her care for our dog again in the future.

Maverick loved walking with Sarah! I appreciate the help while we were gone. This is first time using Rover or Sarah and I would definitely ask her to walk him in the future!

Accepted me as a new client and walked my two dogs for one hour all in the same day. It was a last minute request. She made the process easy. She sent pictures of the dogs and a map view of the walk they went on. Showed up right on time. Will use again.

About: I was very active on Rover, but then I became very busy with our children’s activities. I am now looking forward to being very available as school comes to a close and summer needs arrive for pet owners. We have two dogs at home, a ten year old mixed beagle breed, Lilly, and a two year old, beagle, Myles. The older one is very calm and easy going. Myles is very feisty and keeps us on our toes. Our daughter showed Lilly in our county fair and she won 1st in her class and reserve champion overall. I look forward to sharing my love of animals with others, whether it is cuddles or quick game of ball during our visit. I work full time, so I would be more available evenings and weekends. I am comfortable doing boarding in other’s homes and drop in visits. I feel welcome visits are important prior, so the animals are able to get to know me and will not be as anxious for the actual visit. I want to hear from clients what their dog’s routine is. I want to keep as much normalcy as I can. I plan to ask very specific questions, so care is as close to the same as when they are being cared for by their owners.

Tia was so kind and easy to work with, even on short notice. Her and her beautiful family took care of our dog so well. She sent regular picture updates, and I know my dog was very loved while I was away.

Our dog had a great very with Jennifer. She was very warm to both our pup and us, and assured us that he would be well taken care of. We met her pets (1 dog, 2 cats) before we booked and felt comfortable that our boy was in good hands. Jen was great about communicating every day we were gone. Our dog clearly had a good time and came back to us healthy and happy.

About: With nearly a decade of hands-on dog training experience and a genuine passion for animal care, I bring a unique blend of expertise and compassion to pet sitting. My background includes meaningful work at an animal shelter, where I developed a deep understanding of dogs and cats with diverse temperaments—and I particularly thrive working with animals that need extra patience and trust-building. As someone who lives on a farm, I'm comfortable with all kinds of animals and understand their individual needs. When your dog visits, they'll enjoy safe outdoor time in a secure, fenced area where they can play freely and comfortably. I approach every animal with both patience and gentle firmness, creating an environment where they feel secure and cared for. Your furry family member won't just be looked after—they'll be loved and understood. I'm a stay-at-home mom, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I'm home throughout the day and can provide attentive, flexible care for your dog and/or cat whenever you need it. Whether it's a quick midday visit, an extended playdate, or overnight care, I can accommodate your schedule without the constraints of a traditional work day. Being home means your pet gets consistent attention, regular bathroom breaks, and the comfort of a calm, nurturing environment. I can also be responsive to last-minute requests or changes—something that's often difficult for sitters with rigid schedules. Your dog will receive the same patient, loving care I give to my own animals, with the added benefit of my availability and flexibility as a stay-at-home caregiver. I offer comprehensive pet care services tailored to what works best for you and your pet. Here's how I approach each: Boarding & Pet Sitting at My Home Your pet will be part of our family during their stay. I provide a calm, safe environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and outdoor time in our secure fenced area. My farm setting offers a peaceful atmosphere where dogs can relax and enjoy enrichment activities. I maintain consistent routines for feeding, bathroom breaks, and exercise to keep your pet comfortable and stress-free. Pet Sitting at Your Home I visit your home to care for your pet in their familiar environment, which many animals prefer. I follow your established routines and care instructions closely, ensuring minimal disruption. I provide exercise, companionship, and all necessary care while also keeping an eye on your home—a reassuring bonus when you're away. Dog Walking I offer energizing walks tailored to your dog's age, energy level, and temperament. Whether your pup needs a brisk adventure or a leisurely neighborhood stroll, I ensure they get the exercise and mental stimulation they need while you're busy. House Sitting When you travel, I stay at your home to care for your pets and watch over your property. Your dog gets consistent, attentive care in their own space, and you have peace of mind knowing both your pet and home are in trusted, capable hands. No matter which service you choose, your pet receives patient, loving care and the individual attention they deserve.

About: Lifelong dog care is more than just a hobby for me—it’s a passion that began with childhood dog walking and grew into a deep commitment after my Air Force service. Today, my own dog is my constant companion and she absolutely loves making new friends, making my home a welcoming environment for your pup. My flexible part-time schedule allows me to prioritize a consistent, high-quality routine for every guest, from strict feeding schedules to plenty of one-on-one attention. I am also currently expanding my professional skills through the American Red Cross Cat and Dog First Aid certification to ensure your furry family members are in the safest hands possible. Whether providing a calm environment to relax or a reliable home-away-from-home experience, I treat every dog with the same love and discipline as my own. With a highly flexible schedule, I offer dedicated care that mirrors your pet’s home routine. I am experienced in administering medications, maintaining strict feeding schedules, and providing plenty of exercise through daily walks. Whether it is a midday stroll or overnight boarding, I have the availability and experience—including caring for my senior neighbors' dogs—to ensure your best friend is safe, healthy, and happy. I prioritize safety through a structured home environment and professional preparation. As a military veteran, I am naturally disciplined with following your specific feeding, medication, and exercise instructions to the letter. I am currently completing the American Red Cross Cat and Dog First Aid course to ensure I can handle any situation with confidence. My home is a secure, routine-driven space where your pet will enjoy a familiar flow—including morning dental treats, timely meals, and daily evening walks. I have a long-standing history of trust in my community, regularly boarding and walking younger, high-energy dogs for my neighbors. I also happen to be a world-class cuddler, but shh... don't tell anyone! ;)
