“Melissa was great! She kept our Great Dane for a week, this was the first time we left our dog with anyone. She kept us updated with texts and videos. She is very experienced with a wide variety of dog breeds. Her house and land is great for the dogs to run and play. When we picked our dog up she seemed like herself and didn’t seem anxious or stressed at all. We would definitely book with Melissa again, and I highly recommend her.”
“I appreciate Doug’s willingness to do everything possible to make the separation experience easier for Dexter. He was very attentive and kept me informed about his stay. I would highly recommend him for your next trip.”
“Gail did a great job for us while we were over seas. The girls had lots of attention and play time. Most important was that our one dog received all of her medicine daily. We worry about them getting everything they need. We will definitely use Gail again.”
About: I’ve loved animals since I was little I love their company. Animals have always been a part of my life when I was living with my family we always had a dog and now I have two angels of my super sweet. I am always home to watch your babies. I have two pups of my own that would love the company and your babies would always be in good hands I’m open to anything your dogs need I can take them out however often they need I can crate them if that’s what they need I can give meds
“Cassie is amazing! Her and her family make our pup Miles feel like he's one of their own. She sends regular updates with pictures and he's always a happy boy when we pick him up. We'll continue to book with her whenever needed.”
“Suzanne watched my Lab for the weekend. She was great with sending pics and communicating with me! She took very good care of my Lola! I would definitely use her again!”
“Super nice/living family. After initially meeting them, I was very comfortable leaving my Murphy with them. They have two lovely Beagles and children who obviously love the dogs as well & a perfect indoor & outdoor setting for playing and roaming. They sent me photos and a video which made my day. Nathan even slept downstairs on the couch when my pup seemed worried without having anyone around as it was his first night away from home in several months since a horrific extended stay experience with a facility. I will definitely use them again whenever I need to be away from home!”
“Savannah was great! She welcomed Charlie with open arms and an open heart! Couldn't have asked for a better caretaker! Five stars just doesn't do her justice...should be ten stars! Thank you Savannah and family! Kathryn and Milt”
About: I’ve had pets all my life! I’ve had my own pet sitting business I’m very passionate about pet care. Your pet will be safe here! Between me and my husband we’re almost always home. We do have classes for a few hours during the week. We have pets of our own so we already have a very well set schedule when it comes to them. We can gladly work with any schedule you may already have. I will care for your fur babies like they are my own. I love my pets like my kids they’ll be well cared for here!
“After meeting Alicia I knew our dog was in good hands. Leaving your dog with a stranger is not easy, but with a fenced in yard and other dogs of her own, I knew our dog would be properly cared for. Alicia provided us with updates, photos and even went the extra mile trying to conquer our dog’s hunger strike each time we leave him. It’s nice to know other people are willing to love your pet the same as you would so you can enjoy some time away from home. We’ll be back!”
“Savanna kept my puppy for a week while I was on vacation. She did a wonderful job keeping me posted with pictures. She was also flexible and easy to work with. I would highly recommend her.”
“Debbie was very good with Rocket! We met ahead of time so he could meet her and her dog Oscar and I could tell he’d be in good hands. She sent lots of pictures of him and kept us updated on what they were up to (playing, going to the park, on walks…). SO much better than a kennel/pet lodge where he’d have spent 90% of the time alone in a room.”
“Tiffany took care of our pup Ramsay on New Year’s Eve when our original sitter canceled at the last minute. Ramsay seemed to have a great time! I appreciated the pictures and updates to know that he was doing well, and he was exhausted when we brought him home the next day. Thanks Tiffany!”
“We were very pleased with the care given to our dog and the pictures that were sent almost daily!!! We knew our dog enjoyed her stay because when we went to pick her up she didn't know whether to come with us or stay with Sherri, that speaks volume!!! Thank you for taking such good care 💕 of our Bella!!!!”
“Thank you Deanna and Maui for letting Remy hang out with you guys!! It’s so nice to not have to worry about how Remy is doing when we’re out of town! Deanna takes such good care of Remy and he has a blast playing with her dog too!”
“We feel so fortunate to have found Mark and Vicki. They loved our Heidi almost as much as we do! We appreciated that they only keep small dogs, and while Heidi was there, she had the company of another of their small dog regulars for a few days. We appreciated the many pictures Mark and Vicki sent along with notes about Heidi's visit, every morning and evening. We even felt like they would miss Heidi when we took her home! She even slept on their bed--just like home :). They interviewed us thoroughly and were careful to follow Heidi's routines as far as walks and feeding and snuggling were concerned. Thank you, Mark and Vicki. We will definitely call you the next time we need a dog sitter.”
“I brought our dog Yukon for daycare to Paula & Bill today, and I were a little worried at the beginning since my dog has strong separation anxiety. To my surprise, Yukon adapted so well in new environment. He felt comfortable very quickly, and had great time with Paula,Bill and their two dogs Marty &Ginger. iIt was clear he was well cared for and given lots of attention. It means so much to us to find a loving, patient, and responsible family to take care of our fur baby. We truly appreciate the warm and safe environment they provide. We definitely will come back again! Highly recommend!”

“My boys absolutely love having Brittany check in on them and they look so relaxed in the pics she shares daily. She’s fabulous with communication of status. I know they are well taken care of which is a HUGE relief!”
“Sara has been amazing with Pasheesh and Pretty Girl. She was informed Pasheesh gets anxiety from being left alone for too long even though he has his sister so she sang to them when she visited. How adorable is that! My cats really like her and they’re both very shy towards people. Thanks Sara!”
“Amanda was amazing with my two cats while i was away for an extended time for work. She made me feel so secure and less anxious about leaving them home alone. She was very attentive to my cats’ needs and behaviors and was an excellent communicator (to humans and cats!)”

About: This cat adventure park in my heart has been open since I got my first cat at 16 years old. Kovu! (You know the name from Lion King 2) That’s 10 years of learning that, sometimes, in life, you have to cough out the bad, take a long nap, and not give a … yarn.

About: I’ve been around animals since the day I was born. Currently I’m in college for veterinary technician, and working as a veterinary assistant. Animals are my passion and I love to work with them everyday. If you want a bath, or nail trims done I can also do this as well. Currently I am working full time but I have free evenings and my weekends are free along with a few designated weekdays. I can board pups overnight, or walk your pets in the evening if you’re out late. I have a husky mix who can keep your pups company while they stay with me, along with daily walks that we take her on. We enjoy hiking as well, therefore with permission can take your pup out!
About: I’ve been caring for cats my entire life and have experience with kittens, adults, seniors, and special-needs cats. I’ve helped rescue orphaned, injured, and medically fragile kittens, including syringe feeding, administering subcutaneous fluids, parasite treatment, and basic wound care. I have also worked extensively with feral kittens, helping socialize them and prepare them for successful adoption into loving homes. As a cat owner myself, I understand that every cat has a unique personality. Whether your cat is outgoing, shy, elderly, or requires extra care, I have the patience and experience to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. My background includes volunteering with animal shelters, rescuing stray kittens, and providing hands-on care for cats in a variety of situations. I even rescued kittens under a deck and removed bot flys larvae from their necks… I treat every cat as if they were my own and am committed to providing reliable, compassionate care, plenty of attention, and an stress-free experience for both you and your pet.
“Elli did a great job checking on Lulu during my vacation. I enjoyed receiving photos of Lulu playing with Elli and getting her tuna treat! It made me less worried about leaving her for the first time! I will use Elli again for certain!”

About: I have been a lab parent for 30 years and have trained, walked and had many many dog sleepovers. I love dogs and would love the opportunity to care for yours!

About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve self-trained my own dogs and I’m comfortable reinforcing basic obedience commands like sit, stay, leave it, and leash manners (especially helpful for puppies and energetic dogs). I also have experience caring for a dog with seizures who requires medication, so I’m confident with administering meds and supporting pets with special routines or extra care needs. In addition to my own pets, I’ve regularly helped neighbors and friends with pet sitting and daily care. I’m attentive, calm, and safety-focused, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I also groom and bathe my own dogs, and while full grooming isn’t typically part of my services, I’m absolutely willing to help if an urgent situation arises. I’m self-employed and work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a wide range of needs. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks and check-ins, including hourly relief when needed, and I can do multiple drop-ins throughout the day. Because I’m home often, I’m also able to give pets consistent attention, supervision, and routine support. Care looks a little different depending on whether I’m in your home or mine, but my top priorities are always safety, routine, and clear communication. I expect to communicate frequently during your pet's visit with me. In my home: For daycare or boarding, I require that dogs are crate trained, since dogs will be crated overnight and anytime I’m not home. I also require up-to-date vaccine records to keep everyone safe. I have two dogs of my own, so I carefully monitor introductions and compatibility. We do have a yard, but it is not fenced, so all outdoor time is supervised and on-leash. In your home: During our meet & greet, we’ll go over your pet’s routine in detail (feeding, potty breaks, walks, medication, etc.). I ask that any important care instructions are also listed in your pet’s Rover profile in writing, so everything is clear and consistent. I’m happy to follow your household routines as close as possible during the visit.

About: Your pet is treated as my own and a family member. Your fur baby is not crated unless you request that and provide the crate. Your pet gets to go outside and run and play several times a day. I go out and encourage playing and running for exercise. When the weather permits, we walk through the field and explore along the canal. If your pet is older and doesn't want to play or explore, that's ok. I have plenty of shaded areas for them to just lounge and take a snooze while I sit with them and read. I would love to share your fur babies with you. Must provide proof of all shot records (including Kennel Cough vaccine). I insist on a meet and greet to make sure that your fur baby is going to be a good match with our family. I do not board pit bulls (or pit mixes), German Shepherds, Rottweilers it any aggressive dogs for my safety as well as my pup. I am retired. I never leave your pups alone. If I need to run to the store, my husband is here with the pups. When the pups are outside, I'm outside work them. I have a large fenced in back yard and a standard poodle that would love to play with your pup/pups and keep them company. She loves having new playmates.
“Excellent service. Zach and his daughter were great with my dog Rex! Great setup with a tall fence and Rex loved playing with their dogs.This was a same day booking and they were able to accommodate us last minute and also the following day. I had only left my dog one day at a kennel his whole life so was nervous and within minutes knew I had made the correct choice with Zach and his home!”
“Sarah was incredibly thorough and made sure that my dog felt comfortable in a new space! Thank you so much for your time and giving Lou Lou an incredibly fun experience.”
About: I grew up in a home full of animals, including three boxers, a pit bull, and cats all around! All of the animals i’ve owned have lived to senior ages, so I am aware of what may need done to love the older guys a little extra! I’m also aware of what puppy training or walking may look like. I’ve trained and raised three of my own dogs as well. I am currently working full time, but my hours may vary per day! I am available for dog walking/drop in visits early morning and afternoon/evening! Currently our day starts with a potty trip and around ten minutes of enrichment before going into kennels for work! Once I am home, we are at a park or on a walk daily! My girls eat once in the morning and once in the evening. Our evening then finishing with a final potty break and settling into bed!
About: I have had pets my entire life. I have a boxer and a purple currently. I have watched my friends dogs while they are out of town. I have been a teacher for 20 years and I love to stay active, walking , hiking and aerobic sports. I know how hard it is to leave your pets and I would only leave my dogs with someone I truly trusted and that would give them the same love and affection as ibdo every day. I realize how difficult it is to trust someone with your "babies" and that is why I know I am a perfect person for the job. I know that dogs get so excited just to have someone pet them, let alone go on walks when their owners are away. I am a teacher and have all summer off. My own children are grown and independent, so I am able to work at all hours of the day. Having my own dogs, I know how important it is for them to be in their own environment where they are more comfortable and relaxed. Dogs know when there owners are away,so to be in their happy place is very important.

“Nicole did an awesome job. Sent photos and updates. I had no worries knowing she was taking care of Alfie. And she lives right around the corner from me. I'm already set on having her watch him again when I go out of town. Definitely 10/10”
About: When I was born, a dog was there. My dog. Moses. I grew up with him until we were both 13 and he passed away in his sleep in my bedroom. I have had every pet since. More losses and grief, but I wouldn’t trade any memory away. Now, here I am. Ready to create more memories to accompany the old ones. All because of you, Moses. 👑 I work full-time, Monday through Friday between 8 am and 5 pm. But outside the of those hours… tell your furry friend to buckle up cause he’s/she’s gonna have trouble keeping up with all the fluffy awesomeness headed his/her way! (Unless he/she just wants to rest, of course.) We can go through any information prior to my visit, but rest assured that I am a problem solver. Trust me, I have kids. I’ll find a way through any storm and valley, and you’ll keep your peace and joy.
“Jasmin is wonderful. She watched my dog Malbec while I was on a weeklong trip. She sent us updates and great pictures every day being so easy to coordinate with as well. Thank you so much for sharing some love to our furry baby those Xmas days.”
About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats for family, neighbors, and friends for the last 6-7 years. I have more experience with dogs— ranging from all sizes and ages, however I love cats and never say no to a feline friend as well! Expected care for the animals from me has included daily walks, feeding per directed schedule, hanging out with them, medication administration as needed, and cleaning up after them after an occasional “oopsie”. Most of my experience has been staying in client houses, so I am comfortable with that, however I am also more than confident with driving back and forth for potty breaks throughout the day. I just completed grad school and picked up a part time job with chipotle a couple days a week. My schedule for pet care is more client-based than anything and I will always work my schedule around taking care of the animals needs first. On days I am working at chipotle, my shifts will be no more than 8 hours long. I prefer keeping the clients pets in their homes for their safety and comfort. I will always put them on leashes unless they are fenced in and I will go outside with them initially to keep an eye on them and to feel out the surroundings myself.
About: My family and I have always had a dog while I was growing up, I’m a huge dog fan and absolutely love spending time with them! As a teacher, I am off in the summer time, so what better way to make some extra money by doing what I love most? (Being with dogs!) I made sure every dog my family and I owned got exercise daily, as well as lots of love, cuddles and treats! I would be so happy to continue these activities with other dogs!

About: Through high school I work at an animal health store. I’ve also lived on a farm since a young age, in addition I have cared for my familles exotic petting zoo through my teens! While caring for some pretty cool animals species I’ve always loved dogs the most, and have loved every single one I’ve met! I work full time Monday-Friday in the afternoons between 2:30-10:30 p.m. I have lots of relatives near me that can let your furry friend out while I am away! My mornings are usually spent home, or spending time walking or running on trails! I have a large fenced in back yard and 1 very friendly mini poodle named Sandy to keep yours company! I can easily crate her if needed
About: Life long animal lover - dogs, puppies, cats, horses, ponies and many others. Semi retired and on a flexible schedule so I have time to shower kindness and caring on your pets while you’re away. I have experience in obedience training and worked as a professional groomer for both dogs and cats. I was adopted by my 2 fur babies (both rescues) and I frequently watch my grand dogs. Please contact me if you are needing help with your pet(s) during work days or while on vacation. I also have experience in the health care field (for humans) which is helpful in taking care of pets with special needs. I am available most of the time. I’m semi retired and have occasional commitments but will always put your pet as a priority if they are under my care. Am happy to care for your pet! I prefer to have pets crate trained to stay in my home overnight; owner would need to provide the crate. This is just for their safety! I will come to your home to walk, play and feed your pets as desired!
About: I love all animals, right now I only take care of my own two guinea pigs but I wish I had a dog or cat to take care of! I used to babysit two cats and one of them had diabetes so I know how to do that if your pets need at home shots! I am always off work Wednesdays but there are a few days I work every other week and can take care of of your pets mostly in the morning on those days but Wednesdays is all day if needed! I will play with them, I will make sure they get the right amount of exercise, I will make sure they are fed when needed and give them extra cuddles too!
About: Hello! I focus on supporting dogs with separation anxiety over two years old. My dog comes with me to house-sit and walk. "Meet and Greets" are in a neutral area near your house, and then we go to your house! I have been pet-sitting most of my life and have had several of my own dogs. I am happy to keep your pets' schedules/routine familiar and care for them the way you do. Meals, basic care and training, playing with favorite toys, and enrichment. I am constantly making sure the dogs in my care feel safe, have fun, and relax. I will read out loud with them and play classical music. Lots of snuggles, if they enjoy them, and cozy energy. Consistent time out to go potty every 2-4 hours or as needed. Pet care fits easily into my routine, as I have weekends and evenings available. Some daytime hours as well. My dog is always with me, and we are happy to come take care of your fur babies! Safety is my top priority. That includes not just making sure walks are in safe locations and keeping an eye on any other dogs out, but making sure their routine stays consistent. I watch the dogs I am with consistently while they eat. play, and sleep. When I get where I am watching the dog(s), I check the area we will be in to make sure floors are clear and safe, and I make sure I know where anything is that I might need for safety or cleanups. I sit down and say hi to the dogs and play gently. Talking and singing to them or putting on some classical music and petting them. I make sure they are the center of my time.
About: I have been dog-sitting since I was 13 years old. I have experience with young and old and everything in between, as well as dogs with anxiety. I also have experience with providing medication to dogs. I like to stay in communication with the families while they are away and send lots of pictures/updates, because I know it's stressful being away from their babies. I am a full-time graduate student, so I spend most of my free time studying. I don't currently have any pets with me, so I decided to sign up for Rover to fill some of my time with animals and help care for them! This is a perfect side gig for me as it allows me to study while I hang out with your pets and take study breaks to play with them and take walks! I will not be able to care for pets in my own home, as my apartment does not allow pets. In my client's home, I always make sure I know where everything is for the pet(s) and have all the contact information I need should anything happen while you are away. I like to keep my own apartment tidy, so I ensure that I do the same in other people's homes and I will clean up after myself and the pet(s).
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. Clients, friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to take care of their animals for over 10 years. I have experience working with dogs and cats of all ages and a background in pet supplies, nutrition, and food. I can administer medication, go on walks, stay in your home, pop in for a visit while you’re away, and give your pet the best care possible. Watching animals is my full time job so you can rest easy knowing that I have plenty of time to spend with your pet. I have open availability Monday-Sunday and I’m very flexible. I can stay at your home and keep your pet safe by insuring no foreign objects are eaten, medication and food is given in a timely manner, potty breaks are frequent, and walks are on a leash. If your pet is between 1-15 pounds and needs to take a car ride I can provide a car seat to ensure safety.
About: I have had almost every type of animal there is from hamsters to horses! I am currently in college to become a vet tech. I have been walking dogs as a side job but I’m working to build a bigger clientele. Currently in college and I have morning classes from 8:30-11:30 Monday through Thursday. I already walk dogs once a week but I am hoping to get more work as I’m working to make this my main job. I baby my pets a lot they are very spoiled and I will treat yours the same! My dog gets walked twice a day and is very pampered with regular grooming. My cat gets a lot of treats and has at least 2 long play sessions and I go to see my horse who unfortunately doesn’t live in my backyard almost everyday to groom her and ride. All of my animals stay up to date on vet visits and any other needs.
About: I've had dogs growing up, five of them being German shepherds and the other four being a lab and two mutts and a dachshund, and we've had tons of cats. We currently have two German shepherds and I walk them a ton and I spend a lot of time taking care of them, and then we have a dachshund who I just rescued from the place I work at. The place I worked at does dog boarding/daycare/training. I was a kennel tech so I just took care of all the boarding and daycare doggies. And on the weekends I also took care of all the training dogs when/if the trainers were away. I worked there for over year and loved it, only leaving because I started college and moved away. I have had to deal with so many different dogs and their personalities and I've definitely learned to have a ton of patience with the job. I have been working in general since I was 14. I started at some neighbouring farms, doing farm work so I could ride their horses and earn some money. I then did a couple restaurant jobs and then found the place I currently work at. I have done dog sitting and cat sitting before many times, sometimes for family or friends of family who I don't know but I am happy to help out. The most I have dealt with at one time was seven dogs in total. I have watched people's dogs get trained while at work and I have been trained to use an e-collar and a prong collar so I am able to use those correctly! I really loves my job, it means a lot to me I get to be in that environment and I'm depended on to keep them all safe and happy. And I am a second year student at Muskingum University, I am majoring in Animal Studies in hopes of having an animal conservation related job. I'm a college student and normally drop in between classes and have the rest of the day to tend to pet's. During the summer I am usually employed and work around my schedule At home I spend time walking the dogs mostly and hanging around the house with them. Every client I feel is different in how things are done at their home, so however you take care of your pets I'll follow

“Melissa was great! She kept our Great Dane for a week, this was the first time we left our dog with anyone. She kept us updated with texts and videos. She is very experienced with a wide variety of dog breeds. Her house and land is great for the dogs to run and play. When we picked our dog up she seemed like herself and didn’t seem anxious or stressed at all. We would definitely book with Melissa again, and I highly recommend her.”
“Gail did a great job for us while we were over seas. The girls had lots of attention and play time. Most important was that our one dog received all of her medicine daily. We worry about them getting everything they need. We will definitely use Gail again.”
“Cassie is amazing! Her and her family make our pup Miles feel like he's one of their own. She sends regular updates with pictures and he's always a happy boy when we pick him up. We'll continue to book with her whenever needed.”
“Suzanne watched my Lab for the weekend. She was great with sending pics and communicating with me! She took very good care of my Lola! I would definitely use her again!”
“Super nice/living family. After initially meeting them, I was very comfortable leaving my Murphy with them. They have two lovely Beagles and children who obviously love the dogs as well & a perfect indoor & outdoor setting for playing and roaming. They sent me photos and a video which made my day. Nathan even slept downstairs on the couch when my pup seemed worried without having anyone around as it was his first night away from home in several months since a horrific extended stay experience with a facility. I will definitely use them again whenever I need to be away from home!”
“Savannah was great! She welcomed Charlie with open arms and an open heart! Couldn't have asked for a better caretaker! Five stars just doesn't do her justice...should be ten stars! Thank you Savannah and family! Kathryn and Milt”
About: I’ve had pets all my life! I’ve had my own pet sitting business I’m very passionate about pet care. Your pet will be safe here! Between me and my husband we’re almost always home. We do have classes for a few hours during the week. We have pets of our own so we already have a very well set schedule when it comes to them. We can gladly work with any schedule you may already have. I will care for your fur babies like they are my own. I love my pets like my kids they’ll be well cared for here!
“After meeting Alicia I knew our dog was in good hands. Leaving your dog with a stranger is not easy, but with a fenced in yard and other dogs of her own, I knew our dog would be properly cared for. Alicia provided us with updates, photos and even went the extra mile trying to conquer our dog’s hunger strike each time we leave him. It’s nice to know other people are willing to love your pet the same as you would so you can enjoy some time away from home. We’ll be back!”
“Savanna kept my puppy for a week while I was on vacation. She did a wonderful job keeping me posted with pictures. She was also flexible and easy to work with. I would highly recommend her.”
“Tiffany took care of our pup Ramsay on New Year’s Eve when our original sitter canceled at the last minute. Ramsay seemed to have a great time! I appreciated the pictures and updates to know that he was doing well, and he was exhausted when we brought him home the next day. Thanks Tiffany!”
“I brought our dog Yukon for daycare to Paula & Bill today, and I were a little worried at the beginning since my dog has strong separation anxiety. To my surprise, Yukon adapted so well in new environment. He felt comfortable very quickly, and had great time with Paula,Bill and their two dogs Marty &Ginger. iIt was clear he was well cared for and given lots of attention. It means so much to us to find a loving, patient, and responsible family to take care of our fur baby. We truly appreciate the warm and safe environment they provide. We definitely will come back again! Highly recommend!”
“I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the wonderful care you provided for my dog, Luna! From the moment I dropped her off, I could tell she was in great hands. You took the time to understand her personality and needs, which made all the difference. Luna had an absolute blast during her day with you! Thank you once again for giving Luna such a wonderful day. I will definitely be reaching out for future dog-sitting needs, and I highly recommend your services to anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter!”
“Vicki is beyond amazing as a dog sitter. My lab has so much energy and the day he came home after a week with Vicki and her other dogs, he did nothing but sleep! While at the sitters he took great advantage of the dog friendly swimming pool and large yard. Vicki sent me pictures everyday and let me know what adventures my dog was experiencing. I highly recommend Vicki - she loves dogs!!! We will be a repeat customer ?”
About: I have over 25 years of experience caring for and loving dogs. I have provided basic training techniques, agility training, walking, boarding, drop in visits and overall companionship.

I can assure that your furbaby (s) is in the best hands and I prioritize their needs above my own I have a fenced in yard with shelter and water. I live on a dead end road so very quiet and safe.

About: Hi, I’m Aaliyah! You can look me up on Google Aaliyah’s Dobies and check out my reviews😉 Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up raising and showing rabbits and chickens through 4-H and have experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish, small mammals, and farm animals. You name it, I either have it or love it. I am a dog breeder and have hands-on experience caring for newborn puppies, senior pets, and animals with special needs. I’ve also interned at veterinary offices, volunteered at animal shelters, and helped rescue, foster, and socialize kittens for adoption. In addition to caring for healthy pets, I have extensive experience with orphaned, injured, and medically fragile animals. My background includes caring for bottle babies, syringe feeding, tube feeding, administering subcutaneous fluids, deworming, parasite treatment, basic wound care, and supporting animals through illness and recovery. I have also worked with feral kittens, helping them learn to trust people and transition into loving homes. I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of supervision, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I will tailor their care to their individual needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to provide a stress-free experience while you’re away. I understand that every pet is unique, and I am committed to providing compassionate, reliable care that gives owners peace of mind. BOARDING REQUIREMENTS Before booking, I ask that all dogs be up-to-date on their vaccines and current on flea and tick prevention. Please make sure your dog’s Rover profile is fully completed so I can provide the best care possible. For everyone’s safety, I only accept dogs that are friendly and do well around other dogs. If your dog is selective, reactive, or has shown aggression toward other animals, my home may not be the best fit. For your dog’s stay, please bring their food, vaccination records, and any medications they may need along with clear instructions. If your dog requires a crate for sleeping or when left alone, please bring one, as I do not currently provide crates. You’re welcome to bring a favorite bed or blanket to help your dog feel more at home, although I have plenty of beds and blankets available. You do not need to bring bowls unless your dog uses a slow feeder or a special bowl. I recommend leaving favorite toys or valuable items at home. Dogs love to play, and toys can sometimes get worn out or misplaced. Don’t worry though—I have plenty of toys and enrichment activities to keep everyone entertained! My goal is to make your dog’s stay as safe, comfortable, and fun as possible while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. I work from home, which allows me to provide flexible scheduling, frequent potty breaks, regular supervision, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Because I am home most of the time, pets receive companionship, exercise, and care tailored to their individual needs and routines. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every animal as if they were my own and take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and any special needs. I provide a calm, loving environment with plenty of supervision, enrichment, exercise, and affection while maintaining the safety standards and instructions provided by each owner. If your pet has temperamental issues I’m happy to crate and rotate so they have individual time and I also have a building for boarding.
“10/10 highly recommend and will def use again!! My dogs were so comfortable and content while I was away. She sends pics and updates. Overall great experience! Her backyard alone is any dogs dream 💕”
“My dog Felix was with Trisha for 5 days and she took him at the last minute. He was cared for and looked after while he was there. He had plenty of room to run, other dogs to play with, and doggie pools for the hot days. Pictures and videos were sent to me while I was away as well which was nice!! I would recommend her if you are looking for someone to watch your dog.”
About: I’ve been around animals since the day I was born. Currently I’m in college for veterinary technician, and working as a veterinary assistant. Animals are my passion and I love to work with them everyday. If you want a bath, or nail trims done I can also do this as well. Currently I am working full time but I have free evenings and my weekends are free along with a few designated weekdays. I can board pups overnight, or walk your pets in the evening if you’re out late. I have a husky mix who can keep your pups company while they stay with me, along with daily walks that we take her on. We enjoy hiking as well, therefore with permission can take your pup out!
