About: I’m a pet lover who enjoys spoiling and sending back home ;). Unfortunately, my work schedule does not align with the love and care a pet would need full time right now which is why this is perfect for us all! I will only provide boarding for a single pet unless they come from the same family home so they will have all of my attention! I love walks so if your pup does too then it’s a perfect match! You won’t need to worry about your pet on vacation because I promise they will be vacationing themselves! On the days of availability I will be home full time with all attention available to your pet! I only provide care to one pet at a time (unless they are coming from the same household) so they will be very spoiled! I love walks so if your pet does too, we are a perfect match! I have a fenced in yard and do not have any animals in the house. Your dog will have access to the inside and outside. They do need to be trained but I do also keep in mind that accidents happen.

“Schyler was amazing! She sent photos throughout the day and the pups seemed to have a great time! They were pretty tuckered out when they got home. Thank you Schyler!”

“Audrey was fantastic! We immediately felt at ease with her and knew our dogs would be happy and safe in her care. She sent picture updates and our dogs had a wonderful time with her! Will definitely book again! Thanks so much Audrey!”

“Jessica was a fantastic sitter for Moose! I would absolutely recommend her again and again to care for your pups. She kept me updated regularly with photos and videos, and treated Moose like he was one of her own. Sounds like they may even be getting a Great Dane themselves! Thank you again, Jessica and family!”

About: I’ve loved animals my entire life, from raising dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and more at home to caring for friends’ and neighbors’ pets. I also have 8 years of professional experience working in veterinary medicine as a veterinary assistant/technician. I have a special love for shy and nervous pets, and I always try to give them the patience, space and tenderness they need to feel safe and comfortable. My veterinary background has given me experience caring for pets of all ages, personalities and needs, and I’m comfortable paying close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, mobility and overall wellbeing. I’d love to put that experience to work giving your pets the exercise, enrichment and loving attention they deserve. I currently work outside of Rover, so I’ll have specific days and times each week dedicated to pet care. I’m looking forward to building a reliable schedule with my Rover clients and getting to know their pets and routines! My priority is always keeping pets safe, comfortable and happy in their own environment. I have two dogs of my own and a fenced yard, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pets. For drop-in visits, I’ll follow your instructions carefully and keep you updated about how your pet is doing. I’m currently offering walks and drop-in visits rather than boarding, but may offer additional services in the future.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 4 when I got my first dog. I currently have two cats and would love a dog but my schedule won't provide me enough time to take proper care of one. I am great with training puppies and giving medications. I’m currently a Preschool Intervention Specialist and have my own special education preschool classroom through Lima City Schools. I currently teach August-May. My availability mainly opens up during the summer but love to help out during the school year around my teaching contract. I look forward to working with you! I am currently off for the summer so I can attend to pet care as much or as little as you need. During the school year as long as your schedule works around my teaching contract, I will be able to help you out as much as I can! I have plenty of experience with small, medium, and big dogs. I would prefer to come to you but in the need to have your pet at my house, I am able to crate dogs as needed at my home as my house has an extra room. Plus my cats are very friendly or just stay to themselves so your animals will be in great care.

After working for 30 years in medical and realizing life is about spending time with those you love. I now spend my days playing with my kids and animals and my extended animals.

Together, we can build a routine for your fur babies.My personal routine for my pets are but not limited to my dog gets bathed on Sunday morning. Daily walks in the morning and evening before feeding.nails trimmed as needed and brushed nightly.Cats litter boxes scooped daily full box cleans every Sunday and Wednesday.

Dog safety and a comfort is a top priority for me. I’ve lived with big dogs my whole life and I’m use to controlling them on a leash.

About: I have been a dog lover for much of my life! Growing up we had cats and smaller breed dogs. I begged my parents to allow me to watch our neighbors' dogs when they left town, and I was the go-to caretaker of our family's pets. As an adult, I have cared for 3 dogs of my own and currently we have 2 larger breed dogs. We adopted all of our dogs as puppies so I understand the adorable puppy moments, as well as the moments where puppies can be extra work. I've owned dogs into their senior years and how there can be limitation considerations and potentially and care required for health needs that come with age. I'm currently working part-time and manage a small business with my husband. Both are relatively flexible, especially if planned more than 1 week prior. Generally afternoons (after 1pm) are flexible. With advance planning, I can be available earlier in the day too. I can visit your home to care for your pets. If you have dogs and want me to provide exercise (walk or backyard play session), I can do so based on your preference. If you would like, I can also check on things inside such as water/food, or any other requested services (that I am able to provide).

About: With 25+ years of experience with pets and livestock I have had the privilege of having a house full of dogs. With two of my own currently I have had the opportunity to care for many dogs over the years and understand how important their care is when your away for an extended period of time. Knowing the absence of parents can be a stressful time for animals I offer comfort and care to ease the stresses of change in routine. My daily routine includes early mornings, outdoor activities, working full time from home and have the flexibility to host a pet or do drop-ins during the work day. At this time I am perusing a Bachelor’s degree in Forensic Accounting online and spend most of my free time around home. I understand the comfort and safety of animals is the upmost priority when caring for my own as well as others. Being sure they are on the property or secured when on walks as well as keeping them away from other animals and people that they might not be familiar with to avoid any conflict.

About: I have experience with behavior modification training, off leash training, large breeds, and will build relationship/rapport with families. I am trustworthy and reliable. Breeds I have owned; Husky, Lab, Kangal, German shepherd, and breeds I have worked with: rottweiler, akita, Shih tzu, German short hair, Great Dane, Labrador Retrievers, Doberman Pincher, Labradoodle, Golden doodle, Corgi I offer "daystays", which are extended versions of Drop-Ins. I am available for "drive-bys", that is emergency, or on call drop offs. I provide paw prints, (photos) and always have "Rufferences" for clients that require personal assurances. My 5 star timeshare for Staycations (boarding)is opportunity to save cost and book in advance. I work and I'm a homeschool educator however I have no issues with adjusting my schedule to care for pets and am available to communicate with every day In home dogs sleep in our room unless crated, and eat table scraps when we aren't fast enough, we let the, free roam the house once potty routine is established and that time frame depends on dog. We don't allow dogs on furniture but cover the furniture for animals trained that way to reduce stress on trying to keep them down. In your home, routine is maintained and extra treats given, time outside is always encouraged for high energy and down time is enforced when bad behavior is being modified
