“Another great stay with Glen. We had an emergency while we were away and came back later than expected. Glen kept Morgan and put our minds at ease that she was taken care of while we were dealing with our issue. I highly recommend Glen!”
“Adriana was fantastic! Her home is a perfect setup. She has multiple spaces for the dogs inside and out. She is also a very good communicator. Sent lots of pictures and video every day! My dog Rocky was cared for like he was her own. Thank you!”
“Cheyenne takes excellent care of our Lainey! She keeps us updated daily as to how she’s doing and Lainey loves her puppies Cheetos & Popcorn. We are definitely at ease when we’re away knowing the care Lainey is getting and highly recommended Cheyenne.”
“Karen and Donald provided excellent care for my French Bulldog, Willie! They treated him just like family and were very attentive to his needs. He has separation anxiety and he was allowed to be with them in their own home and even sleep next to Donald on the bed. Willie had a great time during his visit and I highly recommend this service.”
“Anna gave a great deal of attention to my nearly 17yo cockapoo who was blind and in diapers 24/7 the last yr. He had gotten down to 7 lbs from 16 but still spent every waking moment on the prowl for food. When I found out I had colon cancer that required surgery ASAP i took a couple days reading boarders profiles and reviews before choosing Anna. We talked extensively about peanut 2x before boarding. She got back yo me fast when contacted and sent daily video updates. As Peanut has severe separation anxiety, I was concerned but had to board him and I choose well! Anna is sweet, sensative, caring, & attentive to the animal. I would highly recommend her no matter your dog’s needs. Shes the best!”
“I cant say enough about Sairy. To see how much my dog loves her time there makes my Heart happy. She sends me videos and pictures keeping me engaged with her daily activities. She is forever Remy's keeper when I need her in the future. She luvs luvs luvs her Aunt Sairy. ❤️❤️❤️”
“Carissa was a great sitter for Lennox - he seems to have enjoyed her care and the company of her pet, Judge. He came back happy! During his stay with her, Carissa kept in touch with me with appropriate updates, including photos and a few short videos. She was flexible on drop off and pick up times, which was great because my return home was delayed a little bit with traffic. I’d recommend her for sure and already booked Lennox for another stay with her in a few weeks!”
“Hailey was the perfect sitter remedy for an unexpected cancellation from a previous sitter of mine. She provided constant updates on his well-being, along with pictures and videos. Seeing as Cooper is a special needs dog, and that he had a good time, is a huge plus. I would absolutely recommend her to anybody that asked, and will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Eileen was great! She took care of my kitten (Charlie) for 20 days and updated me with pictures and information about him throughout his stay with her. At first she was slow to respond to my messages before taking Charlie in but was great during his stay. I would be happy to recommend her to anyone.”
About: Hello all, I've owned cats, dogs, and horses for over 20 years now and was their main caregiver starting at 8 y.o. I've worked at many horse barns and pet sitter for many many friends over the years. I have skills in pet healthcare (administering medication, baths, cutting nails, etc), young animals, dog & horse training, rescue animals, and elderly animals. I do my best to provide stress free care for your pets. I am currently working from home full-time! So there is always someone around to take care of your pet! My husband and I mostly like to relax and unwind at home with the occasional dinner date or movie, but are flexible and will be upfront with owners if their pet’s needs cannot be met! When pets are in my home, I always take note of the their state of wellness, looking for stress or anything out of the ordinary. I also will inspect the environment to ensure dangerous items (small items/chocolate/other) are out of reach. While we do not have a fenced in backyard we do have a lunge line that will allow your pet to enjoy running around in the backyard but provides a limit so pets do not go near the back alley road! I make sure pets have access to water at all times. I am able to administer medications easily whether it is as simple as pill pockets or even injections. We also have two dogs of our own as well as a cat! Geordi is a 10 year old Australian Cattle dog who is energetic but respects other pets space, Thor is a 1 year old Pembroke Welsh Corgi who loves other playmates, and Wynnona is that our 4 year old cat who tends to mind her own business!
“Adam did a great job boarding and caring for our 80lb higher energy labrador. Very communicative and sent pictures. We also requested Adam apply an allergy meds which he was great at. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Adam!”
“Fatima took care of our 75lb high energy Pitbull like it was her very own dog. We left for a vacation for 16 days and Fatima took over as both Mom and Pack Leader. She walked, fed, gave medication, cleaned ears, bathed, played with, etc. We got photos and vids daily, which gave us peace of mind that Leo was in great care. Highly Recommend!”
“Mushroom had the best time with Jack and Joanne. He loved to run and play with their one dog who matched his energy. I know he had a good time because when I got him home he was exhausted. Thank you Nevi! Oh, and Jack and Joanne😂”
“Mary did a great job. She sent us regular pictures and kept our energetic dog active and entertained. We picked our dog up much later in the day than we thought but Mary was very flexible w our schedule and stayed up till we arrived. I'd say she went above and beyond to take care of our pooch!”
About: I’ve had animals in my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up there’s always been at least 1 dog and cat in our home. My fiancé and I currently have two pups of our own, including one with epilepsy, so I’m comfortable with medications, special care, and making sure pets feel safe and loved. I’ve cared for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and my goal is always to become your pet’s new best friend (with plenty of treats, walks, belly rubs, and a few silly conversations along the way). I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they get all the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away! I work a hybrid schedule, so on the days my calendar shows I’m available, I’m working from home and have plenty of flexibility throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, meals, and lots of attention. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I treat them like they’re my own. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable, so I try to keep their normal routine as much as possible — same feeding schedule, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications, and plenty of love and attention. In my home, pets become part of the family! I have two pups of my own, so I understand the importance of making sure everyone feels comfortable, supervised, and included. I’m happy to provide a calm environment with lots of playtime, cuddles, and attention. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping things familiar and stress-free. I follow your instructions closely, keep your pets on their usual schedule, send updates and pictures, and make sure you come home to happy, well-cared-for pets.

“We had a wonderful experience with our Rover sitter, Brittany! She was kind, trustworthy, and took such great care of our dog, Macie. Our puppy absolutely loved her, and we felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. We highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”
“Always a pleasure. Excellent communication, on-time, very responsive, takes the time to interact with our pets, and follows home and pet care notes as close as possible. I don't have to worry.”
“Freya was amazing! She went above and beyond to take care of our cat who had some special medication requirements. She stayed in contact with us and sent us plenty of pictures and details about the care of our kitties. We could not be more happy with the care we received! I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pets.”
“Alannah is wonderful to work with. She took very good care of our girl, Lucy, before she passed away. And now, Alannah takes good care of our newest babies, Doc and Wyatt. Highly recommend her.”
“I must admit having a total stranger come to my house while away made me nervous. I met Brooke prior to booking her and knew right away she would be perfect. I am extremely happy with her and pleased to know I can use her again. She even went above and beyond and brought in two heavy packages that got delivered that wasn’t supposed to come for another week. I highly recommend Brooke and plan on using her again.”
“Eileen communicated promptly when arranging for our pet to stay with her, and continued during the stay, as well as sending us several pictures. We weren't sure how our cat would react since we had never left her with anyone else before, but she seemed fine and content when we picked her up. I recommend Eileen and would certainly hire her again.”
“Madison did great with my cat and dog. She was very professional and friendly, and they both took to her right away when she came over for a pre-trip meet. She was also punctual and polite and always uploaded pictures when she came by for the feed/walk. I will definitely be a repeat customer of hers.”
“I'm usually very anxious when I leave my cats overnight but I was finally at ease during my trip knowing that Joanne was looking in on them. She was so kind and easy to work with. I knew she was giving them the love they deserved while I was away and I'm so grateful for her! I will definitely be booking her again :)”

“Hailey did a great job of taking care of our cat! We were able to schedule house sitting for the week on short notice. Cat's food and water was full, and the litterboxes were clean. House was in a great condition as well. We received timely and consistent updates and photos. Cat was in a good mood upon our return. Would recommend Hailey to others.”

“Hailey took great care of our dog Mumford! He's a senior with some health issues, so we're always nervous about leaving him with someone new. She met with us before his stay, and even provided pick up and drop off to and from our home. I got pictures every day of him cuddling in her bed! He looked like he felt right at home! I'm sure he's looking forward to seeing her again soon; we've booked her to help with some daily walks. I feel very happy knowing that we can go out of town and have someone we trust to take care of him.”

Pet care fits well into my daily routine because I’m reliable, flexible, and able to plan my day around each pet’s needs. I can help with walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, and keeping pets comfortable while their owner is away. I always focus on safety, comfort, and trust. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, keep pets in a clean and calm environment, and make sure they are supervised, secure, and cared for with patience and kindness.

About: From mushing dogs to house sitting for neighbors/friends while caring for their pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, breeds, and ages. I have always had dogs of my own so pet care has always been a part of my daily routine. Walks, snacks, playtime, dinner together. My dogs are my family. Very pet friendly household. Fenced in back yard. Lots of treats and toys. Plenty of dog beds and couch space. Rooms to separate if need be. Extra food bowls, leashes, collars, harnesses, & more.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs my entire life and have experience with a wide variety of breeds both small and large and everything in between. Every dog has its own personality, energy level and unique needs. I take the time to understand each dog’s communication style so they feel comfortable, safe and loved while in my care. Your pup will receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and personalized care. Although my Rover profile is new, my experience with dogs is not. As a Rover customer myself, I realized there was a real need for reliable, loving pet sitters in our area. After seeing how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet, I decided to become a caregiver myself. I’m home weekday evenings and all weekends. I have reliable transportation and pride myself on being dependable. Whether you need care planned in advance, have a last-minute schedule change or just life’s short notice events, I will do my best to be there for you and your pets.

I have free time during the day to help out with your pets when you're busy! My part time job allows me ample time to care for my pets and yours! We have puppy pads for inside, and a nice backyard where we let our dogs out every day! A bunch of toys for them and food/water/treats as well!
About: I've been professionally caring for pets for over four years through my home-based pet sitting business, Yech's Pet Haven. I am also a licensed boarding facility, giving pet parents added peace of mind that their dogs are staying in a safe and compliant environment. During that time, I've cared for dogs of all ages, breeds, and sizes, including puppies, seniors, and pets with special routines or medications. I have experience safely managing multiple dogs, supervising playtime, and making sure every pet receives the individual attention they deserve. Growing up surrounded by animals, including dogs, horses, and goats, has given me a lifelong understanding of animal behavior and care. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, low-stress environment where every pet feels right at home while you're away. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine. Since I run a home-based boarding facility, I am able to provide frequent attention, potty breaks, playtime, walks, and supervision throughout the day. I keep my boarding numbers small so each pet receives personalized care and plenty of one-on-one attention. My schedule is built around making sure every dog feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while their family is away. I provide a safe, calm, and loving home environment where pets can relax and feel comfortable. As a licensed boarding facility, I prioritize cleanliness, safety, and responsible pet care. I carefully manage introductions, supervise interactions, and separate pets during meals, rest time, or whenever needed. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and individual preferences, so they feel right at home.
“Honestly I don't think I could find a better person to care for my baby when we aren't home. Serena seemed to have a good time and was able to relax and not be nervous. She even ate some dinner (which she usually doesn't when we aren't around).”
“Tara was amazing with our sweet girl Piper! She kept us updated and sent pictures and updates throughout Friday and Saturday. We could not be more pleased! Piper loved her and we will not hesitate to book her again!! 🐶♥️🐾”

“Veronica is the kindest, sweetest person on earth 🌎. At first, she kindly rub my furry baby head with gentle touch. My baby instantly feels the positive energy and shake his little tail. Seems like they know when they are in good hands 🙌 Veronica is one of the best dog trainer.”
About: I’m dog CPR and First Aid certified! I’ve worked as an Assistant Manager at a doggy daycare for 3 years where I also work there as the Groomer. I am also a certified cat and dog groomer! Overall I am here to love all of your fur babies ! I own 2 mini australian shepards, a german shepherd, and 3 cats! I’m always out and about with them! It’s their world, I’m just living in it! I have a big yard and 3 very friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. If needed, my dogs can always be kept separate. I’m here to help you and your fur baby feel comfortable!
“I regret to note that I had sustained a foot injury a couple of weeks ago and was required to use a walking boot which rendered me unable to walk my two husky shepherd mix dogs. Fortunately, I had utilized Ryane's services previously and was impressed with her exceptional performance. She continues to deliver outstanding service. Although the dogs missed our daily routine, they consistently displayed enthusiasm upon her daily arrival at the door. They have developed a strong affection for her. Due to my temporary incapacitation, Ryane kindly assumed the responsibility of walking the dogs twice daily for a period of two weeks.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience with animals and the genuine love and patience I bring to every pet I care for. I have been around animals my entire life, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, needs, and routine. I also have experience caring for senior dogs. My own dog has since passed away, but I helped care for him throughout his later years, which taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, and providing extra comfort and support. Because of this experience, I am comfortable giving medications, helping pets stick to their routines, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. When caring for pets, I make sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, attention, and affection. Whether that means going on walks, playing fetch, providing activities, sticking to feeding schedules, or simply spending quality time cuddling and keeping them company, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure both pets and their owners feel comfortable, confident, and cared for. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. Since I am currently a college student and school is out, I have a lot of free time and a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of attention to the pets in my care. I also work as a babysitter, but Rover is my top priority job. I make sure to schedule my time carefully so that every pet receives the care, attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after them, or simply spending quality time together, I am committed to providing reliable and attentive care. Because of my flexible availability, I can easily accommodate different routines and help pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I currently have three cats who, despite not paying rent, are very well taken care of! Caring for them is a big part of my daily routine. I make sure they receive their daily feedings, fresh water, interactive playtime, plenty of attention, and daily litter box cleanings to keep their environment clean and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines as closely as possible so their pets feel safe and comfortable. This includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, administering medications if needed, and providing lots of love and companionship. I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities, so I take the time to get to know them and make sure they feel cared for while their owners are away. My goal is always to provide dependable care, maintain a clean environment, and treat every pet as if they were my own.

I currently work from home so I am available to be around the pets in my care at all times. I have a set M-F so schedules can stay consistent. I have a semi fenced yard at the end of a dead end.I also have 2 other dogs that are super friendly. 1 is a senior dog who is 16 and another who is 4.

“Jared and Karen are excellent with Wally. Wally already loves them and looks forward to his daily walks. Both Jared and Karen are huge animal lovers and it shows. I feel very comfortable with them walking Wally because I know they take great care of him.”
“The sweetest person I've met and my pup loves he so much couldn't ask for a better person to watch him when I wasn't able to. Very attentive when feeding and walking him at the times needed. Will definitely use her again when needed.”
“Hailey has been walking our dog daily for months and she has been consistently on time, flexible and extremely nice and helpful! Our dog loves her and gets so excited every time she comes to our door. We definitely highly recommend her and we will continue to use her in the future!”
“Aubriana was really great with my dog. Aside from walking, he takes meds twice a day and she was able to do that for him as well. He has a lot of energy during the first 15-20 mins of his walk and she was able to handle him just fine. She also kept me posted on when she arrived/walked/left. I would use her again.”
About: Hi, I’m Tamera! I run Happy Howls Daycare and Walkies, where I bring over 11 years of professional pet care experience to every visit. One of my favorite aspects of this work is puppy care and foundational training. I understand the patience and consistency required for young dogs—from reinforcing potty schedules to working on basic leash manners and socialization. Whether you have a high-energy pup or a senior dog who needs a gentle pace, I tailor my care to their specific life stage. You’ll notice my last Rover review was in 2017; since then, I have been operating as a self-employed pet care provider for private clients. I’m returning to Rover now to meet new families and share my decade-plus of expertise with your furry friends. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and dedicated to making sure every "howl" is a happy one! I myself have 2 cats and 1 dog. I currently reside with my mother in a 4 bedroom house. My mother owns 5 cats, 1 small dog, and a ferret. All are friendly. Keep in mind if youd want care in my home. :) As a professional pet care provider, my daily and weekly schedule is designed entirely around the needs of my furry clients. Because I manage Happy Howls Daycare and Walkies as my primary focus, I am able to offer a high level of flexibility and dedicated attention that fits into a structured routine: Morning Energy (7:00 AM – 10:00 AM): My day starts early with morning 'potty breaks' and active walks. This is the prime time for puppies who are working on their training and need consistent outdoor reinforcement first thing in the morning. Mid-Day Adventures (11:00 AM – 3:00 PM): This block is dedicated to my core walking routes and daycare guests. I schedule midday visits to ensure dogs get their much-needed exercise and socialization while their owners are at work. Afternoon Wind-Down (4:00 PM – 6:00 PM): I focus on late-afternoon walks and feeding schedules. For daycare pups, this is a time for calm play and getting them ready for their evening transition back home. Seven-Day Availability: While my busiest days are Monday through Friday, I am also available for weekend 'walkies' and daycare by request. This ensures that whether it’s a standard work week or a busy weekend, your pet has a consistent and familiar face to look forward to. Throughout the day, I maintain a very organized schedule. I make sure to leave plenty of time between visits so I am never rushed, allowing me to give each dog my full attention, work on training cues, and send plenty of photo updates to you. When your pet stays with me, my home becomes their second home. I focus on creating a calm, structured environment where they can feel secure while you’re away." Safety First: I maintain a 'paws-on-the-floor' policy for greetings to keep excitement levels manageable, especially for puppies in training. My home is fully pet-proofed to ensure a hazard-free stay. Routine & Structure: I mirror your dog's home routine as closely as possible—including specific feeding times, nap schedules, and any 'house rules' you have in place. Supervised Socialization: If multiple dogs are present, interactions are always 100% supervised. I use my experience to read body language and ensure every pup feels comfortable and respected. Cleanliness: I maintain high sanitation standards to keep everyone healthy and happy. In Your Home: Walkies & Drop-Ins "My goal for home visits is to provide high-quality care while leaving your home exactly as I found it—with the addition of a very happy dog!" Secure Entry & Exit: I am extremely diligent with home security. I double-check that all doors and gates are locked and that security systems are reset upon my departure. The Walk Experience: Safety is my priority on 'walkies.' I use sturdy leashes, avoid high-traffic or 'unpredictable' areas, and keep a close eye on the pavement temperature and weather conditions. Puppy/Senior Care: For clients at your home, I customize the visit. For puppies, this includes cleaning any accidents and reinforcing potty training; for seniors, it may involve gentle mobility assistance or administering medication. Detailed Check-ins: I will let you know when they nap, eat, and do their business
“Toni is awesome. On our first meet you would tell how caring she was and patient. We have a senior dog who needs special care and right away we knew Toni was the perfect fit. Our old lady is very receptive to her and Toni has gone above and beyond to give her the time and attention she needs.”
About: I've been taking care of a handful of dogs for the last 5 years! Lived with a few different breeds, currently live with a havapoo and maltipoo! I have free time during the day to help out with your pets when you're busy! My part time job allows me ample time to care for my pets and yours! We have puppy pads for inside, and a nice backyard where we let our dogs out every day! A bunch of toys for them and food/water/treats as well!
“Aly was truly accommodating and Luke attached you her right away! We had a sudden change of schedules and needed a dog walker within a short time period. Aly helped out by being available and consistently answering any and all questions. She kept us updated with Luke’s walks and is definitely worth booking.”

“Adriana was fantastic! Her home is a perfect setup. She has multiple spaces for the dogs inside and out. She is also a very good communicator. Sent lots of pictures and video every day! My dog Rocky was cared for like he was her own. Thank you!”
“Cheyenne takes excellent care of our Lainey! She keeps us updated daily as to how she’s doing and Lainey loves her puppies Cheetos & Popcorn. We are definitely at ease when we’re away knowing the care Lainey is getting and highly recommended Cheyenne.”
“Anna gave a great deal of attention to my nearly 17yo cockapoo who was blind and in diapers 24/7 the last yr. He had gotten down to 7 lbs from 16 but still spent every waking moment on the prowl for food. When I found out I had colon cancer that required surgery ASAP i took a couple days reading boarders profiles and reviews before choosing Anna. We talked extensively about peanut 2x before boarding. She got back yo me fast when contacted and sent daily video updates. As Peanut has severe separation anxiety, I was concerned but had to board him and I choose well! Anna is sweet, sensative, caring, & attentive to the animal. I would highly recommend her no matter your dog’s needs. Shes the best!”
“I cant say enough about Sairy. To see how much my dog loves her time there makes my Heart happy. She sends me videos and pictures keeping me engaged with her daily activities. She is forever Remy's keeper when I need her in the future. She luvs luvs luvs her Aunt Sairy. ❤️❤️❤️”
“Carissa was a great sitter for Lennox - he seems to have enjoyed her care and the company of her pet, Judge. He came back happy! During his stay with her, Carissa kept in touch with me with appropriate updates, including photos and a few short videos. She was flexible on drop off and pick up times, which was great because my return home was delayed a little bit with traffic. I’d recommend her for sure and already booked Lennox for another stay with her in a few weeks!”
“Hailey was the perfect sitter remedy for an unexpected cancellation from a previous sitter of mine. She provided constant updates on his well-being, along with pictures and videos. Seeing as Cooper is a special needs dog, and that he had a good time, is a huge plus. I would absolutely recommend her to anybody that asked, and will definitely be using her in the future!”
About: Hello all, I've owned cats, dogs, and horses for over 20 years now and was their main caregiver starting at 8 y.o. I've worked at many horse barns and pet sitter for many many friends over the years. I have skills in pet healthcare (administering medication, baths, cutting nails, etc), young animals, dog & horse training, rescue animals, and elderly animals. I do my best to provide stress free care for your pets. I am currently working from home full-time! So there is always someone around to take care of your pet! My husband and I mostly like to relax and unwind at home with the occasional dinner date or movie, but are flexible and will be upfront with owners if their pet’s needs cannot be met! When pets are in my home, I always take note of the their state of wellness, looking for stress or anything out of the ordinary. I also will inspect the environment to ensure dangerous items (small items/chocolate/other) are out of reach. While we do not have a fenced in backyard we do have a lunge line that will allow your pet to enjoy running around in the backyard but provides a limit so pets do not go near the back alley road! I make sure pets have access to water at all times. I am able to administer medications easily whether it is as simple as pill pockets or even injections. We also have two dogs of our own as well as a cat! Geordi is a 10 year old Australian Cattle dog who is energetic but respects other pets space, Thor is a 1 year old Pembroke Welsh Corgi who loves other playmates, and Wynnona is that our 4 year old cat who tends to mind her own business!
“Adam did a great job boarding and caring for our 80lb higher energy labrador. Very communicative and sent pictures. We also requested Adam apply an allergy meds which he was great at. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Adam!”
“Fatima took care of our 75lb high energy Pitbull like it was her very own dog. We left for a vacation for 16 days and Fatima took over as both Mom and Pack Leader. She walked, fed, gave medication, cleaned ears, bathed, played with, etc. We got photos and vids daily, which gave us peace of mind that Leo was in great care. Highly Recommend!”
“Mushroom had the best time with Jack and Joanne. He loved to run and play with their one dog who matched his energy. I know he had a good time because when I got him home he was exhausted. Thank you Nevi! Oh, and Jack and Joanne😂”
“Mary did a great job. She sent us regular pictures and kept our energetic dog active and entertained. We picked our dog up much later in the day than we thought but Mary was very flexible w our schedule and stayed up till we arrived. I'd say she went above and beyond to take care of our pooch!”
“This was my first time leaving my dog overnight and Kerri made me feel so at ease! She was very responsive and sent plenty of updates. Kobe had such a good stay and enjoyed spending the night with her and her family! I will definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs my entire life and have experience with a wide variety of breeds both small and large and everything in between. Every dog has its own personality, energy level and unique needs. I take the time to understand each dog’s communication style so they feel comfortable, safe and loved while in my care. Your pup will receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and personalized care. Although my Rover profile is new, my experience with dogs is not. As a Rover customer myself, I realized there was a real need for reliable, loving pet sitters in our area. After seeing how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet, I decided to become a caregiver myself. I’m home weekday evenings and all weekends. I have reliable transportation and pride myself on being dependable. Whether you need care planned in advance, have a last-minute schedule change or just life’s short notice events, I will do my best to be there for you and your pets. If my book states unavailable, please message regardless as I may be able to accommodate your requests. My home is a safe, dog and puppy-friendly environment with a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. If providing drop in and walking services, I will respect your property and leave your home and pets as secured as found.
About: I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own that I care for daily. I also care for my friends pets often and am excited to meet your pets and provide them the best care that they deserve. I am available all day on weekends and in the evenings every day. Some week days I am available more often. I am also available for overnights stays. I have a fenced in yard so would be able to have your pets in my home with no concern of them running off or anything like that. If I am caring for your pets in your home I will treat your home like my own, providing the best care.
“Annie was a dream come true for our Judy! Judy is still young (1.5yrs) and a very babied Golden Doodle who goes EVERYWHERE with us. We had to leave her behind for a family reunion/vacation and were devastated. She is like our baby. When we met Annie, Judy loved her and Annie was so sweet, soothing, calm and laid back. Annie took great care to alleviate our stress by sending many text updates and pictures. We really felt that Judy had a vacation too! She got to play with other puppies and a cat and Annie, of course! Annie is really someone special. A true animal lover and a kind-hearted person! She already feels like family to us and we would certainly use her again!!!”
“Sarah was great!! She took my pups at the last minute and was very flexible with the drop off/pick-up times. They were happy with Sarah and she kept them separated from the larger dogs for which I'm grateful. I would definitely recommend Sarah and would use her again!!”
