“I’m so glad we found Maddy! She assured me that my precious old gal was fully integrated into their family throughout the stay. I very much look forward to using Maddy again.”
“Our pups did well with Claire on their first stay! Claire was very communicative and sent photos too. She was very patient and understanding of letting our girls adjust to a new environment. Claire is very knowledgeable and gave us a few helpful recommendations as well.”
“We have a rescue dog who is nervous in new situations but Dee Dee was wonderful with her. She gave her a great atmosphere to feel calm and welcome, and then plenty of pets when our pup was ready. Dee Dee was communicative, cheerful, and sent us lots of photos, which we loved. We are definitely going to reach out to Dee Dee the next time we go out of town. She’s so delightful!”
“This was by far our best pet sitting experience! Our two miniature schnauzers are anxious, but we could tell they were very loved and well taken care of during our five days away. They seemed very sad to leave their new friends and slept a whole day after we got back! Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of them and giving them a home away from home!!”
“Destiny was flexible and accommodating to my schedule. I liked the perodic update photos of Snowball eating,relaxing,going on walks, and playing with her dog Max. Her home is very dog friendly and I would definitely rebook.”
“Joseph was great with our pups. He helped us out last minute when we were in a mind and was very responsive. The pups had so much fun running around and making friends! We would love to have him watch them again!”
“Jasper had the best time with Judy. She sent great updates everyday about how Jasper was doing. He was well loved and cared for. Jasper thinks of Judy as Grandma. She was the best.”
“Diane was great! Lilly seemed comfortable there and it’s nice to have the fenced in backyard since we don’t have that at home. I appreciated the updates and pics over the weekend!”
“We are so glad we found Amanda and Matthew, and can highly recommend them. They kept us updated with pictures and videos of our pup, Wiley. The only problem was, Wiley looked like he was having so much fun, we figured he wouldn’t ever want to leave! 😎”
“I had a great experience with Brittany! Very sweet, always communicated and sent me pictures of my fur babies. I will definitely be coming back and recommending to others!”
“Great care for our Minka! Consistent updates with pics. Daily trips to the dog park. Very pleased with the care of our dog. Will definitely continue to use them in the future.”
“Juno was well cared for and happy when I picked him up after staying with Erin. Great communication and daily photos. I would definitely book with Erin again.”
“We had Ying watch our kitty cat, Mr. Ribs, for a week while we were away. He was a fantastic cat sitter. He sent tons of pictures and videos and kept us updated with his sleeping and eating habits. Ying played with Mr. Ribs and kept him entertained. This was comforting for us as the little guy loves people, so leaving him alone or isolated was not an option. Ying was a great companion for the kitty, and we will definitely use him in the future.”
“We are so grateful to Amy & Rob for taking such wonderful care of our dog! We felt that they listened to our care instructions and concerns and felt confident throughout our pup's stay. Amy & Rob were attentive, kind, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay - and provided photos of our dog's meds being administered which we appreciated so much. Our dog came back happy and well-cared for, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. Highly recommend, and we’ll definitely be booking again in the future!”
“Thor was amazing with my cat while I was on a long vacation. Made sure he took his daily meds and I got regular photo updates! He was also very flexible and accommodating when I made a mistake in my booking and asked to a drop-off later in the day. I recommend Thor very highly.”
“Reya was so happy with Sabrina and Derrick over a long weekend. Updates were sent daily and the pictures of her playing were amazing. I felt incredibly lucky to have Reya stay at Sabrina and Derrick’s and will definitely book again!”
About: Whenever I have taken care of a friend or neighbors pets they have always been satisfied. I will always treat your pet with kindness and patience. I am recently retired and I have open availability. Most of the time I am available on short notice and I understand that emergencies happen where you don’t have time to pre book. Serving the Tidewater area. I will follow your instructions to the letter. I will not leave your pet unattended in the yard. I will always use a lead when walking.
“We count ourselves very lucky to have stumbled upon Christina and her excellent services on Rover App! We needed dog care for a six day period to fly back east for a funeral. She was available, responded immediately, and was easy to communicate with. Our dog was pampered in her home with comfort, affection, and treats! Best of all she took our dog on adventure outings twice a day to frolic off-leash with other pups, play ball, and swim! I received multiple photos each day of our dog living her best life! It was like an unplanned summer vacation for our precious Quinn, and we’ll be using her services again. Thank you, Christina! Well worth the money for peace of mind.”

About: Pet CPR and first aid certified. For as long as I've been around, I've always been around stray cats - and am not surprised to find my own cat basically playing with the loose strays on my property. He loves to play and interact with me and my dog, very friendly and sweet even though he may be shy at first.
About: I've taken care of pets since I was a youngster. I had a diabetic dog for years, so I'm aware of the need for medications. I LOVE dogs and cats of all sizes and ages. I am an avid walker, so would love to get a good hike in with your dog/s. There is nothing better than curling up in the evening with a dog or cat to snuggle with. I'm retired so I'm willing and available to travel and stay at your house thereby relieving the stress your pets endure staying in a kennel or at other people's homes. If I will be taking care of pets for several days, I would prefer to care for the pets in your home. I currently don't have accommodations to care for pets where I live.
About: I am the local cat befriender, crazy cats are fun to play with, aura cats are great to chill with and sassy cats will match my diva energy. All in all, I love how different cats are and taking care of them is great! The wild cats in the neighborhood, my neighbors down the street or even your best friend at home will always feel secure in their cattivities!k
About: I've taken care of cats since I was a little girl, and I also helped raise kittens back in Texas. I currently have a Calico and Tabby! I have experience in first aid and medication handling, and I can't wait to possibly be your future sitter!
About: I am extremely cat savvy and take pride in my level of cat knowledge. On my free time outside of work and pet sitting, you can find working hard with a local cat rescue and caring for my many foster cats (in addition to my three personal cats) at all times.
“Katie is prompt and dependable. We absolutely loved reading her posts about our kitties while we were on vacation. Even our shyest cat warmed up to her which is unheard of! Truly a testament to her way with animals. We would rebook Katie in a heartbeat! Thank you so much, Katie!”
“Alisa went above and beyond to make us feel good about leaving our baby at home for two weeks. She sent us sweet photos and videos of her interacting with our cat Moki. The experience with her made our cross-country vacation worry-free. We couldn't be happier.”
About: I have taken care of cats my whole life. I have experience with disabled cats as well as senior cats! I am more then able to provide medication and over the top care for animal that need a little extra love!
“It was my first time leaving my 2 cats. Cats were fed separately, played with and taken care of. When I came home the house was in as good as shape as when I left it. Instructions were followed (and I had lots of instructions!). My cats were both clearly very happy. Jill was responsive and communicative of both good news and problems. Jill was really flexible: we were able to come to an arrangement that didn't fit nicely into the Rover app's scheduling. I would trust Jill to take care of my cats again, and I would recommend her to others as well.”
About: I've spent over 20 years caring for cats and have grown up with more than eight of them throughout my life. From playful kittens to senior cats needing extra care, I’ve handled a wide range of personalities and needs. I’m attentive to their behavior, comfortable administering medications, and committed to keeping their space clean and comfortable. I treat every cat like family and strive to make them feel safe, loved, and understood.
About: Young and old, disabled and moody, I've cared for them all, and have never been without several cats in my life. My Mother used to rescue/trap, spay/neuter, nurse/tame. We have even tamed adult wild cats. It takes lots of time and patience. I've pet sit for many kitties, even for a cat rescue other than ours with over 50 cats. That was incredible! I look forward to meeting your fur baby.
About: I have worked professionally with dogs for films and TV, have dog walked, house-sat, and taken dogs into our home overnight. I am mental health first aid certified and advise mental health for film and game companies. I have a 12 year old daughter who is my helper as well. Flexible to schedule any of these scenarios to take care of your precious pets. I am available daily for housing, and can flexibly schedule overnight needs for 1-3 dogs. I am also available for overnights at pet owners home depending on distance around Eugene, Oregon. I am available to stay overnights in pet owner's homes as well, even on short notice, depending on distance from Eugene. Flexible on distance and long term needs.

“Plain and simple, Madison was nothing less than a pure blessing caring for my puppy Sailor. She didn’t simply care for her, she made her part of her family. Finding Madison (Maddy) to care for my pup was an answered prayer. I cannot sing her praise enough! 5++++++++ stars!!”
“So many good things to say! This is the first time I've needed to hire a dog sitter and I am so happy. They sent me lots of pictures and videos, totally understood her needs and took amazing care of my fur baby. They genuinely enjoyed spending time with her and made me feel very comfortable. 100% I would recommend them.”
About: Hi, I am an animal lover and former rescue volunteer & pet sitting professional. Being a long time animal owner (cats, dogs, turtles, hamsters & fish), I understand the importance of having a responsible and dedicated sitter available. In the past I have rescued and boarded different dogs and cats with different needs keeping them on holistic diets and regular baths when needed, I thrive in giving them a loving environment at home (with tons of cuddles). I also have a personal belief on the importance of outdoor activity. I have a lot of experience with medium and larger breeds (Pomeranian, Beagles, Chow Chow, Rottweiler, Sheperds, Labs, & Mixes, etc), and also with senior dogs. I am a doggie parent. I also will send you periodic pictures of your fur baby during their time with me. I do walk in visits for pet parents. I try to work with a flexible schedule, but it depends on the needs of the pet. Some pets preffer 2 visits per day to make sure house is clean and pets are fed. But mostly will preffer the ability to drop in the evenings and early mornings. When I go to clients homes, I first have a meet and greet to determine best fit. I also like to fill out a log for all the dog needs. Some people like to give me a list and I am very happy when they do! I adapt to the need of the pet. For example some cats are shy and take longer to interact. I talk to them and keep them company. Make sure to take out any pet who enjoys a good 20-30 minute walk.
“Howser thoroughly enjoyed his time with Angie and her pups! It's so comforting to know he gets to be with a true dog lover when I need to be away from him.”
“Rogue had an amazing time at his first daycare with Valerie! Her home is truly a dog’s paradise, she’s put so much care into making it fun and safe for pups. As a first-time Rover user, I was a bit anxious, but Valerie eased my worries by answering all my questions and sending thoughtful updates and pictures throughout the day. Rogue came home happy, tired, and completely at ease. It seemed like he didn’t want to leave! We fully trust Valerie and will definitely be booking with her again for daycare and overnight stays. 😊”
“I appreciated Claire's thoughtful intake process, her speed at replying, and her feedback from my girl's visit. Claire clearly cares about dogs and facilitating doggie-people relationships. I recommend her and look forward to booking future stays with her.”
“My dogs were happy and healthy every time I picked them up, which is the most important factor. Diane was communicative, friendly, flexible, and accommodating. I appreciated her going out of her way to treat me and my dogs well.”
“What a great experience from start to finish! Sabrina is very kind, responds quickly, and sends lots of pictures/updates. My dog looked like she had a blast! I know she was greatly taken care of. I’ll absolutely be boarding my dog with her again”
“Im very thankful I found Joe, he has the PERFECT location with a fenced yard for lots of playtime. My Duke was cared for and made new friends to play with. Thank you Joe, and thank you Rover.”
“Denise did a great job! Biscuit was happy when we picked her up. She took Biscuit for walks and recorded them. Biscuit was comfortable enough to take a nap. I also appreciate the good day care price. We will use her again.”
“We had an outstanding experience with Erika. She really went the extra mile in being prepared, communicating well with us and giving Ruby a lot of exercise, as well as companionship with her dog. Highly recommended.”
“Ying is absolutely fantastic! He took great care of our dog, making sure he had lots of exercise and affection and treats! He sent lots of videos and pictures during the day so we knew he was in good hands. We are very picky about who we trust with our dog and Ying is top notch! We have already booked another day with him. Thank you, Ying!”
“Absolutely wonderful first day with Brandy! When I picked Sampson up after leaving him for the day, he wasn’t all wound up and anxious like he normally is if I leave him with a friend. He was relaxed and immediately slept the rest of the night. She tuckered a border collie out!! I will absolutely be taking him back. 100% recommend.”
“Joel & his wife were wonderful. We dropped our old lady blind pup Gouda with them, so we xoukd explore Eugene and areas for the day. They took us at the last minute and gave us great and kind service!”
“Our pups were relaxed and happy when we picked them up. A good sign they got lots of cuddle time. We will definitely use Joshua when we are back in the area.”
“I am so, so glad I found Ruthie! I’m in the process of moving back to Eugene after a long absence, and while house sitting this week, needed someone to watch my dog Everett for a few hours while I ran some errands. It’s been nonstop travel/driving/boxes all summer and was concerned that Ev would be freaked out by yet another change in scenery…but it was instantly clear during the meet and greet that Ruthie’s house, coupled with her training and experience, would make for an excellent home-away-from-home environment. She walked us through her space, asked great questions about Ev’s personality and needs, and left me feeling totally confident that Ev’s visit would go perfectly. And it did— Ev was relaxed and in a great mood when I picked him up, and I got some great pics of his day. I knew he would be in great hands and look forward to bringing him back!”
About: Hello! My name is Kaylee. I’ve been taking care of animals most of my life. From cats and dogs to farm animals and reptiles! I have experience with animals of all ages as well. So no matter the youth or the more wise of the animal I am able to provide the care needed. When caring for your animals I always treat them like I would my own. I’m here for your pets, to ensure their health, happiness and safety as that’s my top priority. I absolutely love rover and the experiences I’ve had so far with the variety of animals and kind owners. I am available daily, weekly, monthly for your pet and I try to be sure I am available most holidays as I know it’s hard to leave your pets during those times. I work full time to be sure you will know your pets are in safe hands while you’re away. When booking with me, I provide care for your pets whether you have one or multiple furry friends. I provide a loving and caring space and try and make it the most comfortable and stress free for them. I look forward to meeting you and your pets in the future! Caring for pets will always be a top priority for me as I know the stress of finding someone to trust with you babies and knowing they are taken care of. When pet sitting I be sure to put your animal first. In my home I treat your animal as I would my own. With the love and care as well. I have a fenced back yard with tons of space for activities. I have a large kennel if needed. Open water feed and free range of toys and animal beds! Treats when allowed by parents. Walks when needed. Tons of cuddles. No table scraps. I adjust as well as I can to make this feel like a safe space.
“Rosa was so helpful in caring for my dog while she recovered from an injury. Melon was so happy to see her when we got to her house so I know she was given tons of love and attention. I would recommend Rosa to anyone!”
About: I have spent my life as a pet owner and I like to treat everyone's animals the way I would like mine to be treated. I have, at one time or another, owned dogs, cats, birds, fish, turtles, rabbits, snakes, rats, goats, horses, and chickens and am comfortable caring for many more. I know this site is mostly limited to dog and cat care, but I'm happy to pet sit anything. I am happy to care for pets either in my home or in yours and I'm very flexible regarding my schedule. Every day I care for my own household animals, and I'm more than capable of taking care of plenty more. My animals include 3 dogs of varying sizes, two cats, a parrot, and an aquatic turtle. Though I have plenty of experience with other animals as well. I'm happy to either host animals in my home or venture to pets in their own homes. I believe that my job in caring for a person's pets is to adhere to their wishes for their pets. I want to follow the expectations set for any individual animal. I love to lavish animals with love and affection, but that isn't the right approach for every animal and I need to respect the wishes of their humans within the scope of safety.

About: All my life I’ve been obsessed with dogs 🐶 When I was finishing up nursing school, I needed to find some part time work to help make ends meet. I found a job as a kennel technician at a commercial dog boarding facility - where I mostly cleaned up to 36 dogs daily messes and gave them social enrichment. I quickly jumped up the short ladder of management and took over as CEO right around my first year mark of employment. I have cared for hundreds, possibly a thousand plus dogs in the last half of my entire lifetime. I’ve worked hard to help dogs and owners alike understand eachother better - communication often needs no words. I specialize in “project pups”, socialization and reactivity. I’ve taken care of newborn puppies to teenage obedience school dropouts - through the medically fragile & elderly pooches on palliative care & absolutely everything in between. I’ve worked in a rescue as an adoption coordinator and had the extreme pleasure of helping people and pooches find their forever spaces together. Along with rescuing over a dozen dogs of my own over the years & nursing several back to health from horrific conditions. Dogs are my passion - simple as that. Nothing makes me happier than helping a dog & owner relationship thrive. I am a stay at home mom, my boys are 2 & 3 years old. They’ve been raised around dogs & already have learned a healthy respect for their space. I am hyper vigilant & always err on the extreme side of caution for everyone’s safety - especially when it comes to those tricky resources. Other than weekly appointments on Mondays - we have a very flexible and open schedule. Our yard is fully fenced with 6 foot - reinforced wood fencing. Gates are double locked to keep toddlers from opening them - dogs too. I have a 10 year old spayed female border collie that I picked from her litter at 3 weeks old. She’s my right hand gal and socially bulletproof when it comes to hanging out with her furry friends. I often used her as the “Ice Breaker” dog when I ran the boarding facility - meaning she did all the temperament testing for any newly boarded dogs we were socially unsure about. We have multiple baby gates, and crate option for separation of space. A dog door built into our back door leading into our fully fenced, toddlerized but maintained, grassy residential yard on a quarter acre. We live in a very quiet tiny town on an even quieter little street, perfect for safely regulated walks and training opportunities.
About: CPR and first aid certified. Owner of a Siberian husky for over a decade. Have trained her since she was a puppy. She is now a senior and requires minimal walks compared to when she was young. She gets along with cats really well and is around farm animals frequently. Working 40 hours a week while managing pet care is essential, I am able to work around my schedule as fit for the animal's needs. Please inform me if any needs are requested to make sure everything, like fresh water, is taken care of. I offer care at the clients home, which I have experience in. I am usually in the same room as my pets, so I will often be in the same area with your pet while they are under supervision. Please inform me at least a day in advance for booking.

“Kyimani has been so great with my dogs. She has watched them 3 times this week, and every time she watches them I feel I can breathe easy when I am away. She really takes the time to get to know both of my dogs personalities, and treats them very well. I know that when I book with Kyimani that my dogs are going to be very well taken care of. After she’s finished she writes very descriptive report cards for my dogs, which always make me laugh and smile because I can tell she is getting to know each of my dogs. If you are looking for a trusting and caring sitter, I recommend Kyimani all the way. I’m already booking with her next week as well!”
About: There’s nothing I love more than animals! I have had and cared for them my entire life and have years of experience walking and feeding dogs, cats, and many other animals. I am reliable and can be flexible when needed. In my free time I volunteer at Greenhill animal shelter and have lots of experience with all types of dogs and their needs. I am currently a college student and have a pretty open schedule. I am always looking for ways to help out and love surrounding myself with animals. I am a very active person and love walking, hiking, trips to the beach, or just laying around keeping them company! I have classes and work but times vary for each. I follow rules and do everything that is asked, I leave everything as I came and pick up after myself. I ensure to always ask questions to avoid problems, better safe than sorry!
About: I provide reliable, in-home pet care focused on consistency, safety, and following each pet’s established routine. I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats with a wide range of temperaments, including rescues, seniors, and high-maintenance pets. I’m attentive to body language, stress signals, and environmental safety, and I adjust my approach based on the individual animal rather than using a one-size-fits-all style. I’m comfortable administering medications, adhering to strict care instructions, and maintaining routines so pets feel secure while their owners are away. Pet care is a central part of my weekly routine. I structure my schedule intentionally to allow for dependable drop-ins, walks, and in-home visits, with flexibility to accommodate regular check-ins, travel schedules, and repeat clients. I provide care exclusively in the client’s home to keep pets comfortable in a familiar environment. I follow all care instructions closely, prioritize safety on walks and during visits, and communicate clearly with owners to ensure trust and consistency.
About: I’ve always had a love for animals and believe every pet deserves the same care, attention, and affection they get at home. I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, from energetic puppies who need lots of playtime to older pets who need a gentler touch. I’m active and love going on walks, but I also know how important cuddles, patience, and routines are for pets to feel secure. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or just keeping your furry friend company, I treat every pet as if they were my own I am a stay at home mom, so I can easily be with your pets all day! I am very active, so I love to take walks and do lots of potty breaks. We have a fenced yard so they can play outside. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, I make sure the environment is clean, pet-friendly, and free from hazards. I keep a consistent routine with feeding, potty breaks, and playtime so pets feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I always respect their space and follow their instructions closely, from feeding schedules to favorite walking routes, to keep things as familiar as possible for their pet. I also send regular photo and text updates so pet parents have peace of mind knowing their furry loved one is happy and safe.
“Alisa is so kind! And I really appreciate how quickly she responds :) She took both my dogs on a thirty minute walk and the dogs loved her. I will definitely be having her walk my dogs again in the future.”
“Katie responded right away and is excellent with communication. She is absolutely sweet and you can tell how much she loves animals. I feel extremely comfortable leaving her with my 3 pup babies. Highly recommend! 😊🐶”
About: I grew up with cats and dogs in my house and I had pet frogs! I previously was a pet sitter for dogs, cats, and sometimes other critters. Afternoon/evening/overnights during the week, or weekends work best for me as I do work. My job is flexible with me being in and out of the office, so with a day notice I could potentially do mornings and mid days. I am very open to respecting what the pet owner ask of me. I will happily send cute pictures throughout the visit! I am comfortable asking clarifying questions.
About: I work as a veterinary technician and have 10+ years of pet sitting under my belt. I also have a private mobile nail trimming business that I run part time on the side, I have a pretty large client base with many references from that. I am comfortable working with pets of all shapes and sizes, and don’t have a problem working with pets that may have behavioral concerns. I can administer medications and even care for pets with serious medical needs. I am currently working full time at a veterinary hospital but I have 3 days off per week for all day service and can make home stops in the AM before work and PM after work. Unfortunately at this time I do not offer services in my own home - I have two dogs and two cats of my own, and one of my dogs is elderly and extremely grouchy so bringing in outside pets is not an option for our household. I am no longer offering overnights unless it’s a single overnight. My typical client hires me to stop in 2-3 times daily to feed, walk, medicate, and play with their pets! I also offer dog walking services and mobile nail trimming/basic grooming!
About: When I’m caring for someone’s dog, their family member, I make sure that I treat them as if they were my own. Lots of love and affection! It’s important to me that they not only get the physical care they need but also the emotional care. Developing a relationship and gaining trust with each dog is key. I enjoy bonding with each dog I care for. Their unique personalities are so fun to get to know and be around. I love the connections I’ve made with each pup! I have open availability. I currently reside with a 145lb English Mastiff senior and a 15lb terrier mix. I am comfortable with all breeds, sizes, and ages. I have no problem administering medication if needed. I would love to care for your dog!
About: I have three beautiful cats at home that are super energetic and snuggly! My family had cats while I was in high school and I love being around all animals! Just moved to Eugene from Tennessee and currently have open availability! I’m an early riser so if you need a dog walked in the morning, I’ve got you! I have a car and am willing to walk or bus as well! Our house is plentiful of cat trees, window perches and tunnels! We give them fresh food and water every day and they all get individualized attention! I will do the exact same for your pets!
About: I love all critters and have an especially soft place in my heart for the elderly and/or disabled. I started by volunteering for neighbors friends on trips or working 12 hours shifts, just to stay busy, and it was awesome to see how my daily visits helped their overall health over time. Visiting with critters is always the highlight of my day. I move slowly, carefully, speak softly, so my energy is a great fit for older or anxious animals. I love them all, and every step. Greeting, walking, playing, chilling, pets and massage, special diets, and I have no problem helping administer medicine or any extra special care that is needed. It would be an honor to be of service for you and your fur baby :) I am flexible and available, single, no kids, and also a home care worker. I only work 4 hour shifts, so pet care can very easily fit in and around my other work schedule. When I meet you and your pet, you can show me the care routine, and I will confirm that I understand every step. What works well is if the supplies are visible and steps are also written down and left somewhere I can refer to if needed. I will take photos to either text or email you while I am at your home with an update for each visit.
About: I worked as a veterinary technician for over 4 years and have lived with and cared for dogs my whole life. This means if your dog needs special medical home treatment (pills, SQ fluids, insulin injections, etc.) I am comfortable administering these, but I would most likely charge more for special needs pets. I have been pet sitting and dog walking for almost 20 years, but took a break while abroad in the Peace Corps. I have a masters degree in environmental science, and work from home in environmental communication. I love pets and will treat your dog or cat like my own. In my pet sitting career, I have also cared for every type of animal, from hand fed fish to chickens to fat tailed geckos, so if you have more than just dogs and cats, I'm glad to take care of the whole menagerie! I'm looking forward to meeting you and your pets! I work from home and take my own doggo out a bunch! He has episodes of back pain and when he does, we don't walk as much, but when he's feeling good, we walk about 2 miles a day. I'd LOVE for your dog to join us! I have a fenced yard and a super friendly pup of my own that will love to play with yours. I will treat your dog like my own, give them tons of cuddles and reach out to you if anything goes wrong while they're staying with me to make sure I'm caring for them like you would!
About: I have excellent references with over 18 years of experience walking, feeding, bathing, and grooming animals. I have worked with animals as young as 4 months old to as old as 18 years old and had to administer medication. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, horses, goats, fish, birds, and cows. I am a teacher so I am available any time during the week to stay over and with breaks I can go and let them out for play and potty time. I’m off work after 3:45 so your pet babies will have lots of attention! I also have summers off (June-August) and can be home with your pets all day!

“I’m so glad we found Maddy! She assured me that my precious old gal was fully integrated into their family throughout the stay. I very much look forward to using Maddy again.”
“This was by far our best pet sitting experience! Our two miniature schnauzers are anxious, but we could tell they were very loved and well taken care of during our five days away. They seemed very sad to leave their new friends and slept a whole day after we got back! Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of them and giving them a home away from home!!”

“We count ourselves very lucky to have stumbled upon Christina and her excellent services on Rover App! We needed dog care for a six day period to fly back east for a funeral. She was available, responded immediately, and was easy to communicate with. Our dog was pampered in her home with comfort, affection, and treats! Best of all she took our dog on adventure outings twice a day to frolic off-leash with other pups, play ball, and swim! I received multiple photos each day of our dog living her best life! It was like an unplanned summer vacation for our precious Quinn, and we’ll be using her services again. Thank you, Christina! Well worth the money for peace of mind.”

About: I’ve always loved animals, often more than people if I’m honest haha. I will love your babies like they are my own! Crate trained or not crate trained are welcome. They won’t be spending much time, if any, in it unless that’s part of the requested care. I lost both my rescues, the most recent almost 2 years ago. It’s an indescribable loss. My heart isn’t ready to own another animal yet, but I truly have so much love to give them. I’m the type that let my dogs on any and all furniture, celebrated birthdays, and went on special trips and outings I know they would love! I’ve always owned animals, specifically dogs, my entire life. I believe they are the purest form of love. I’ve watched animals for friends and family, but my senior dog made it difficult towards the end of his life to have any other animals around. I live in a private community with 2 grassy dog parks inside it. While I have your baby, please feel free to connect anytime you want an update or reassurance that they are safe and sound! I work at a spa part time, and also from home. I have plenty of walk and spoil time! I’m not away at work longer than 5 hours at a time a few days a week. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone. I want them, and you, to feel safe and relaxed 😌 I’m a sucker for animals. I’m sure your pet will figure that out in the first 5 minutes haha. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
