“Joy is great! She and her family treated our dog like their own and we’ll definitely be booking her again in the future. Joy was so accommodating when we asked if we could change the pick up time as well. Extremely pleased!”

“Angela is a gem!!!! She took excellent care with our special needs dog! Dax requires a lot of medication and special foods because of his PLE disease. She and her family welcomed Dax, he was treated as one of their own. I would highly recommend Angela to care for your fur baby. We plan to schedule with her again when we travel.”

“Heather is an amazing sitter! We got picture updates everyday and was fast responding. Whe. When we had issues getting back home, she was completely understanding and was flexible with how much our plans had changed. I will be booking with her from now on!”

“Fantastic Family and care. My baby loved it and wasn't excited about going home which is a great sign of top care. Appreciate the love and care she got while we were gone. 100% recommend and we will use them again.”

“It was my first time using the Rover App . Kashawna was very quick and responsive, answered all my questions that I had. Drop off and pick up went smoothly and she took great care of my sweet allie. I enjoyed receiving the several pictures she sent !”


“Jaclyn and her family were great with lulu. Lulu had a great time with them and their pup Tyson. Nice big yard for her to run around in and played great with Tyson. I have never seen my dog snuggle up to our other dog at home, like she did with Tyson! Will defineately book again with them. They were overall amazing!!! Definitely recommend to other rover users.”

“My dog, Cleo, (who is usually very nervous) has the best time here! She eats well which isn’t always the case when she is away from home, and gets to play fetch several times a day. She has even had a bath when I pick her up! Will continue to use and highly recommend!!”

“Anne was amazing with our dog Tyr, My boyfriend was very hesitant since this was his first time being away from him in 2 years, since Tyr was 6 weeks old. I was more worried about Tyr being somehwere new since he is a nonstop 60Lb ball of energy. But Anne was great and let them be their own selves while sending us updates and pictures. She was even gracious enough to take on my dog last minute when my sitter cancelled on me. I highly recommend Anne and will continue to use her in the future.”

“Tara did a great job Recoil loved her He was very happy with her and in excellent shape when we picked him up. She came through at the last minute for us. I would recommend her to anyone. You can tell she really loves animals.”

About: I treat every dog like they're part of my own family. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust, so I provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where they get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and affection. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I'm patient with shy or nervous dogs and happy to follow your pet's normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions. I also provide regular photo and video updates, so you'll always know how your pup is doing while you're away. My goal is simple: to make sure your dog feels comfortable, happy, and loved until you're back home. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of attention and care throughout the day. Because I'm home most of the time, your dog won't be left alone for long periods and will receive regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of affection. I enjoy keeping a consistent routine and will do my best to follow your dog's normal schedule so they feel comfortable and at home during their stay. In my home, pets are treated like family. We have a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run and play, and we have three friendly, well-socialized dogs who love having companions. I always supervise interactions and make sure every dog feels comfortable. I'll follow your pet's usual feeding schedule, provide plenty of potty breaks, playtime, exercise, and lots of love and attention. If your dog prefers a quieter environment or needs special care, I'm happy to accommodate their individual needs and routine.
“I felt very comfortable leaving my lil Leila with Andrea She sent me adorable pics which made me very happy. She snuggled and loved my dog when I was gone. I will definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter. Thank you Andrea!”

“Cristina took wonderful loving care of my boy. All my requests were obliged. Angus clearly adored her. I plan on asking her to dog sit in the future. She sent me lots of pictures which helped put my mind at ease. I usually board him at the vet and he doesn’t get the level of care he got with Cristina. Many thanks!”

“Our recent stay for Sam with Madison was our first time using the Rover app. Wow! We could not have asked for more -- it genuinely blew us away how great the experience was! Madison was a tremendous host for Sam -- extremely responsive on the message app; very courtesy and friendly with the drop-off of Sam; provided photos/video and daily recaps of Sam's stay; and was flexible and willing to accommodate us to our convenience on pick-up. Not only have we found the Rover app to be easy to navigate and efficient with the information it provides -- we have found Madison to be an All-Star Sitter, that frankly probably provided better care for Sam than he receives on a weekly basis at home! Genuinely very impressed and appreciative of Madison and the Rover platform.”

“As always, Lauren and Jonathan did an amazing job taking care of our Chuck Norris. He tends to be hesitant with any males and completely loves Jonathan. We know he is in great hands when we leave him with Lauren and Jonathan. They are our go to sitters”

“I can’t say enough good things about Carrie & Kurt! My fur babies are always so happy when they stay with them! They’re also always exhausted when they come home, which I love. I get daily updates with pictures and sometimes videos. We’ve had our babies stay with them several times now and they will continue staying with them as long as they’ll have them! Thank you for giving us peace of mind about our fur babies while we travel.”
“Chino was well taken care of while I was away. Chino is shy and when I picked her up she did not seem shy at all with them, especially with Shannon's lovely daughter. I would recommend her and she also has a privacy fence surrounding her backyard, which put me at ease also.I would definitely ask for her services again!”

“Single handedly made me a repeat user here on Rover. Super flexible, communicates consistently, and great with care. Our cats normally don’t leave the bedroom with new people but loved spending time with her. 10/10”


“Isabella was a terrific choice to care for our five cats. We appreciated her efforts to ensure our more shy, older cats were fed, while our younger cats devoured their dinner. She definitely met all of our cat sitting needs while we were away from home. We would gladly have Isabella return.”

“As always - it is so great to rely on Dee & Rover to take care of our Patches. Thank you so much, Dee, for always being there & your extra “Extras”!!! Patches is always so well taken care of & it is so great to know that we can take a trip knowing our boy is well looked after & loved!”


About: While I am primarily a dog owner, I am comfortable feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, administering basic care, and spending time with cats to ensure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I respect their individual comfort levels—whether they enjoy playtime and attention or prefer a quieter visit. My goal is to provide reliable care, maintain their routine, and give owners peace of mind through updates and photos during each visit.

“Very pleased with the care that James gave my dog! He showed up on time, followed everything I asked, and made the whole experience stress-free. It really put me at ease knowing my dog was in good hands. I would definitely use him again!”

“Ari is super sweet and our guys really liked her. She made sure we didn’t have to worry about them when we couldn’t be home to check in on them. I definitely would recommend Ari for anyone needing their pets looked after!”

“Rachel is great with my cats! She is attentive, making sure she plays with them, handles administering medications and treats daily. She sends both video and pictures daily - I can tell my babies are at ease and enjoying their time with her. She checks in if she has questions. I feel very comfortable leaving my babies under her care.”


“Cassy is absolutely amazing—responsible and caring. She took the best care of my baby cat and treated her like her own. I received detailed updates, photos, and messages every day, which gave me so much peace of mind. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would trust her again!”

About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and other animals, I provide loving, dependable, and professional pet sitting services you can trust. I have a natural connection with animals—many clients jokingly call me an “animal whisperer” because of my calm, patient approach and ability to make even shy or anxious pets feel comfortable and safe. I am kind, compassionate, punctual, and committed to treating every pet as if they were my own. Whether your furry family member needs walks, playtime, medication administration, cuddles, or simply a reassuring presence while you’re away, I provide attentive, personalized care tailored to their unique needs. Reliability and professionalism are at the heart of everything I do. You can enjoy peace of mind knowing your beloved companions are receiving exceptional care, plenty of love, and the respect they deserve in a safe and nurturing environment. Work full time with an hour lunch. I’m available before and after work and pending location I could stop by during my lunch break if needed Sorry, I do not offer boarding in my home at this time but it may be an option in the future depending on the situation

About: Cats have always held a special place in my heart. My love for them began when I was a child and had my first pet cat. Today, I’m actively involved in helping manage the feral cat population in my area through care and support. My own cat was once feral, and with patience, love, and trust, I was able to socialize and train them into a wonderful companion. This experience has given me a deep understanding of feline behavior and the unique care that cats need.
“Jonathan was the absolute best. Truly. Was extremely reliable, flexible, and caring for my young cat while I was gone. I’d recommend him to anyone looking for a kitty sitter!”

“We left our sweet kitty Elora with Angela and her family over Christmas. We were very grateful for her to accommodate her and bring her into her families celebration. Elora seemed to get along just fine with her and her animals and came home just as content as when we dropped her off. The only thing I would mention for anyone with chemical sensitives Elora did come home smelling like a lot of artificial fragrances as did everything we dropped her off with and needed a good bath (she was not pleased about that) as we are chemical sensitive. This has nothing to do with the quality of care, and the genuine heart of Angela and her family just something to be aware of for those who have chemical sensitivities to artificial fragrances which is why I have rated 4 stars.”

About: I have had dogs all of my life since I was 4 years old. I didnt start to take up the responsibility to take care of them until I was about 7 or 8 years old. I have had a range of dog breeds and sizes in my care from a golden retriever to a toy Aussie. I love take care, play and just hang out with animals. I currently work as a middle school teacher so my summers are pretty free! Whether it’s a one day check in or a vacation, I will happily spend my summer with your pups! During the school year, I am limited to weekends only but would still love to spend my weekends with your pets! I will follow whatever needs you have for your dog(s) whether I have to house sit, walk, or just hang out with your animal for the day. I want to make sure you are comfortable with the care I give them.
About: My résumé includes dogs, cats, muddy boots, mystery noises in barns, and convincing animals that the thing they absolutely do not want to do is actually a great idea. I've learned that patience, consistency, and a pocket full of treats or a favorite toy solve most problems. Animals have always been a huge part of my world. On any given day, I might be caring for horses, spending time with my dogs and cats, or helping a nervous animal feel comfortable in a new situation. I understand that every pet is different. Some want a long walk and a game of fetch. Some want a quiet companion who respects their space. Some have very strong opinions about breakfast arriving precisely on time. I have experience caring for animals of all ages, from energetic youngsters to seniors who need a slower pace and a little extra patience. I'm comfortable with large dogs, multi-pet households, and pets with established routines that need to be followed carefully. Friends often describe me as observant and dependable. I pay attention to details, communicate clearly, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal's personality. Whether your pet is an adventure buddy, a professional napper, or a lovable troublemaker, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you're away. As a lifelong animal owner, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I will treat them with the same attention and respect I give my own. I currently have flexible availability most days of the week and can often accommodate pet care requests around my existing animal care responsibilities. Caring for animals is already a part of my daily routine, so I understand the importance of consistency, communication, and showing up when expected. Beginning in August, my availability will shift as I start graduate school, and I will primarily be available on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. I believe in being upfront about scheduling and only accepting bookings that I can fully commit to, so you can count on reliable care and clear communication. Every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to follow it as closely as possible. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets have fresh water, meals (if needed), potty breaks, exercise, and attention tailored to their personality. Some pets want to play, some want belly rubs, and some prefer a quiet companion who respects their space. For walks, I focus on safety, consistency, and making sure your dog gets both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I pay attention to weather conditions, energy levels, and each dog's comfort and confidence. I also keep an eye on the little things. As someone who has cared for animals for many years, I know that changes in appetite, energy, mobility, or behavior can be important. If I notice something unusual, I will communicate it promptly. In a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the household itself. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable and cared for while you're away, and for you to come home to a happy pet and a home just as you left it.

“What a pleasure to meet Joy and her 3 dogs She is so professional as a pet sitter. Chester came home relaxed and actually formed a bond with Joy’s daughter Morgan. It may have been the many belly rubs that won his admiration. I will definitely ask Joy to care for Chester again.”

“Chloe has a special hand with pets that few others have. She cared deeply for my timid kitty on her first daycare visit away from home. I can tell my sweet Mirabelle was taken good care of. If you’re uncertain about who to choose on Rover, look no further than this wonderful young woman! Her home was the perfect environment for my cat, both clean and cozy. She was quick to respond to my inquiries and texts, with a joy I could literally feel coming from her kind heart. Bless you Chloe”

“Kashawana is excellent with Attie. Attie can’t wait to get out of the car when she realizes where she is. Kashawana is super accommodating and helped me out on short notice!”

“Anna was great taking care of our dog Mila, she informed us how it was going and even though it was Mila's first experience and she was nervous, Anna knew how to handle the situation. I definitely recommend Anna.”

About: I've always liked to rescue animals and care for them from a young age. So lots of my family and friends would bring animals to me or trust me to petsit for them. I've not only cared for dogs and cats, but also turtles, toads, and a few birds. I'm currently solely attending classes so I have plenty of availability for your pets to always feel well cared for during their stay with me! I have a fenced patio, luckily there are a few pet friendly parks that surround me. I follow any instructions given for your pet care to a T since no one knows your pet like you do. I have a housemate, but she is just as loving to any animal brought in.
“Beaux LOVES Cam. She’s very good with him. From day one she has been very understanding, and made us feel comfortable leaving Beaux with her. She’s filled in last minute when we needed care. Cam also sends lot of pictures and updates. We definitely will keep booking with her!!”
“Absolutely amazing job! I will definitely be using her the next time I'm in need of this service. As someone with an ESA pet, his will being is important to me and she made the day worry free.”

About: I am currently working as a vet tech and going to school to earn my Vet Tech degree! I care for your babies like they're my own babies ❤ I work full time but am happy to care for your babies before and after work and in my free time. Very flexible schedule ❤ Safety is my number 1 goal! You can expect quality care and rest assured your loved ones will be well loved and taken care of while you're away!
About: Hello there! I'm Razelle, your local dog walker reporting for duty! I'm here to make sure your pup gets the best care possible. I currently do remote work and have found plenty of dedicated time to do something I really enjoy on the side. As a certified Rover pro, I provide all sorts of services. From dog walking to house sitting and drop-in visits. But what sets me apart from the rest of the sitters is my passion for your dog’s well-being. I've had countless reviews on Rover and other platforms commenting that I treat their dog as my own. If you have training regimes or a set schedule, you can count on me to get it done! I also incorporate basic obedience training during our walks [if requested]. I teach simple commands like "Heel," "Look," and "Sit" to keep your pup focused and obedient, even in the face of distractions. This can be important when facing unexpected encounters! FRIENDLINESS WITH OTHERS REQUIRED: Safety is a top priority for me, as I understand that your dog's well-being is of the utmost importance to you. For this reason, I am unable to care for dogs with a history of attacking other dogs or humans. Furthermore, if your dog exhibits any aggressive behavior during a visit, I will be unable to continue caring for them in the future. This policy ensures the safety of all dogs and humans in my care and allows me to provide the best possible service to you and your furry companion. WALKING SUPPLIES? To ensure that your dog's walk is safe and enjoyable, please make sure that your pup has a well-fitted collar or harness, and that you have poop bags and a leash at the ready. While shoes are not required, I recommend them for added safety and comfort during your dog's adventure. Thank you for helping me provide the best possible care for your pup! Disclaimer: Ensuring that your dog's collar or harness is well-fitted is crucial to their safety during walks. If I determine that the collar or harness cannot be properly adjusted to fit your dog securely, I will be unable to walk your furry friend, as this increases the risk of your dog getting loose and running away. Please be mindful of the fit of your dog's collar or harness before scheduling a walk to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for your pup. SCHEDULE? Monday-Friday: 6 AM - 11 PM Weekends: 6 AM - 11 PM *Times subject to change according to the sunrise/sunset* --------------------------------------------------------------------- FAQ: *WILL YOU SEND UPDATES OF MY DOGS?* You betcha! At the end of every walk or stay, I'll send you a detailed report on how your furry friend fared. You can expect to see all the commands we used during our walk, the exciting experiences your pup had, and of course, plenty of adorable photos from our time together. Who knows, you might even find yourself printing out the report and hanging it up on your fridge for all to see! *I HAVE NEVER LEFT MY DOG BEFORE, WILL HE OR SHE BE OKAY?* It is natural for some dogs to experience separation anxiety when being cared for by someone new. As a professional dog walker, I do my utmost to ensure that each dog feels comfortable and at ease with plenty of interaction and attention. It is not uncommon for new surroundings to disrupt a dog's digestive system, resulting in loose stools. However, there is no cause for alarm as this is a normal reaction to a change in routine. Typically, after 1-2 visits, the dog's digestive system will adjust, and any issues will resolve. It is important to note that the level of reaction varies depending on the dog's unique personality and temperament. *WHAT IF MY DOG IS SPECIAL NEEDS?* I am able to care for nearly ALL special needs dogs! 1) Allergies: Please let me know of any beforehand! 2) Medicine: info must be written on a note alongside food, with dosage, etc. (non-medical injections such as insulin is okay. In the state of Virginia, medical/complex injections require specific qualifications/certifications, which I do not have.) 3) Diapers are okay 4) Blind or Deaf? I’ve cared for several blind/deaf dogs and they’re always great! 5) Paralyzed: I have experience with a pitbull who was paralyzed from the waste down due to an incident. I kept up with physical therapy, indoor accidents, cleaning/caring, hand feeding. 5) Something Else? Let me know *HOW WILL MY DOGS BE CARED FOR?* When caring for your pup during visits and stays, their personality is my top priority. I will adjust my activity level according to their specific needs to ensure their safety and comfort. In the case of inclement weather or unfortunate situations that may cause your pup to get dirty, rest assured that I will have a towel or wipes readily available to clean them up. You can trust that I will provide the utmost care for your furry friend. Disclaimer: Please note that dogs can learn from their canine companions during visits. However, I cannot be held responsible for any habits that your dog may pick up from other dogs. Additionally, I cannot be held liable if your dog decides to consume unusual debris or objects during our visit. It is essential to keep a close eye on your dog and guarantee their safety at all times. *GROOMING?* Although I don't do grooming myself, I don't mind picking up and dropping your dog off at your preferred groomer/grooming salon for $10 each way. Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any injuries/damages/harm the grooming salon may cause to your dog. Please make sure that this is a groomer/salon that you TRUST. --------------------------------------------------------------------- ABOUT MY DOG Meet Suki, my adorable 3 year old Blue Merle Border Collie! She's sweet as honey and loves everyone, including cats, dogs, and humans of all ages. I can't guarantee she won't lick you to death, but hey, that's just her way of saying hello! I'm pretty strict when it comes to Suki's diet and exercise routine. She gets fed twice a day with a slow feeder to avoid any mishaps, and I make sure to keep her brain active with mentally stimulating games when we're not out and about. Speaking of which, we hit the dog park 3-5 times a week and go on hikes and runs at the lake. Suki's a ball of energy and loves playing fetch, so be prepared to throw that ball a few times! Now, let me be honest with you. It's highly unlikely, but on occasion, Suki might come along for a walk or a drop-in visit and hang out in my car. Don't worry, she's super chill and won't leave any fur behind. But if you're not cool with it, just let me know, and I'll make sure she stays home, catching up on her favorite TV shows or something. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please don't hesitate to send me a message if you want to chat about your pet concerns and their needs. Again, I am home mostly all of the day. Anything else you would want to tell me I would love to hear! Monday: 6 AM - 11 PM Tuesday: 6 AM - 11 PM Wednesday: 6 AM - 11 PM Thursday: 6 AM - 11 PM Friday: 6 AM - 11 PM Saturday: 6 AM - 11 PM Sunday: 6 AM - 11 PM *Times subject to change depending on the sunrise/sunset* UNAVAILABLE DATES: August 11th, 17th, 2024 September 13th-15th, 2024 December [PENDING] As a professional pet sitter, I am willing to do some serious acrobatics to keep your home spick and span, even if your furry friend decides to have a little accident. Let me know what your preferences are, and I'll do my best to accommodate them!

I love walks and can take yours, too, for no additional charge.

Because I'm home most of the time, your dog won't be left alone for long periods and will receive regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of affection. I enjoy keeping a consistent routine and will do my best to follow your dog's normal schedule so they feel comfortable and at home during their stay. In my home, pets are treated like family. We have a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run and play, and we have three friendly, well-socialized dogs who love having companions. I always supervise interactions and make sure every dog feels comfortable. I'll follow your pet's usual feeding schedule, provide plenty of potty breaks, playtime, exercise, and lots of love and attention. If your dog prefers a quieter environment or needs special care, I'm happy to accommodate their individual needs and routine.

About: I’ve spent years caring for pets for friends and family, including walking, drop-in visits, and overnight pet sitting. I’m comfortable with animals of all sizes and energy levels, from playful puppies to relaxed seniors. I currently live with and help care for three dogs (ages 1, 3, and 12), so I’m very familiar with managing different needs! I work part-time hours, so my time is pretty open overall. My schedule is set for each week, so my availability will be posted well in advance. I make sure to keep a consistent eye on animals even if they seem to be low maintenance. That includes indoor/outdoor time and during walks. If you have any safety concerns regarding your pet, just reach out.
About: All my life I have had some sort of animal in my home. At one time my family fostered dogs and I loved it! I can’t wait to met all kinds of pets! It fits into my routine because I have time in the mornings or nights to either walk or take care of these animals. It will fit right in! My dogs are never outside unsupervised and I always am watching them to ensure their safely and mine. I take safety very seriously with my animals.
About: Hi! Thank you for visiting my profile. About me: I’m currently a stay-at-home mom who chose not to go back to a full time marketing position. My love for animals and staying active has led me to Rover. I enjoy the gentleness of kitties, (especially those that like to play), and love to go on long walks with dogs. I am extremely cautious with my clients babies and care for them as I would my own. I always try to teach basic leash manners, and with time and practice, I can turn a dog who is all over the place to a steady, confident, well-mannered dog. I believe in treat/reward training and positive reinforcement is the key to earning their respect. I’ve raised dogs and cats all of my adult life. From kittens, puppies, Pekingese, Pugs, to 95 pound Boxers, you name it, and I’ve probably raised it! I’m an active individual, so I love to be “out and about” and enjoy walks - I can do it all while you are away. If you need help with puppy training, or a kitten house check while you’re at work, I will make sure their needs are met and provide companionship. Aside from animals, I love gardening and decorating my home, so I have many projects on my hands to keep me busy through the day. I have a wonderful husband and a 7-year-old who fills my weekends with joy! If you need housesitting, (watering plants, etc.), while you’re away, I will help and will not charge any fees. You can consider me your “house sitter” the next time you go away! I am available pretty much all day and into the evening hours. My days are routine and structured, so I would take the same approach with your pets. Unfortunately, I cannot sit overnight. Making sure your pets have their needs met is my first priority. This includes feeding, walking, and companionship to keep them happy when you’re not around.
About: I’ve been responsible for caring for my families pets since I was 5 years old. My dad taught me how to teach basic commands for our dogs and I’ve educated myself in the health and wellness of my pets since getting my dog, Ruby back in 2018. Dogs mean so much to me and they have a soft spot in my heart. I will dutifully care for your pets and make them feel loved in any way I can! I am currently a sophomore majoring in Biology at Wofford College so besides from class, I will give your pets plenty of attention and care. My Monday-Wednesday-Friday schedule varies from my Tuesday-Thursday schedule so feel free to ask me about that! I am also apart of greek life and a club on campus which will only take a little bit of my time. Otherwise, I have time to stay overnight for your pets. Any routines that the pet normally has I can continue while you are away! My dog’s health is important to me and I know how important schedules are so I will be sure to follow them to the best of my ability!
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of personal attention and care I give to each pet. I take time to learn their routine, quirks and comfort needs so they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I have experience with both tiny puppies and kittens feeding bottles. To senior pets who need a little extra patience and gentle care. I’m reliable, attentive to detail, and treat every animal like my own—making sure they get plenty of love, playtime, and comfort no matter their age or energy level. While working part- time at D6 teaching. I take on a few side jobs, I am a nanny, house sitter and decal maker have more free time and availability! I have one dog and three outdoor cats. I also have a large fenced in backyard with lots of room to play and make themselves at home!
About: I grew up taking care of my own dogs and all the responsibilities that come with that and also dog sitting throughout my high school years. I currently work part time so I have lots of time to work with you. I am always out and about so it would match up perfectly for me to be able to drop by and help. I am comfortable bringing dogs and walks, letting them run around, fenced in areas and crating them if that is their normal routine I think it’s the most important to do what the owners have made the normal, which is what I will follow if I’m the person taking care of your pet.
About: My résumé includes dogs, cats, muddy boots, mystery noises in barns, and convincing animals that the thing they absolutely do not want to do is actually a great idea. I've learned that patience, consistency, and a pocket full of treats or a favorite toy solve most problems. Animals have always been a huge part of my world. On any given day, I might be caring for horses, spending time with my dogs and cats, or helping a nervous animal feel comfortable in a new situation. I understand that every pet is different. Some want a long walk and a game of fetch. Some want a quiet companion who respects their space. Some have very strong opinions about breakfast arriving precisely on time. I have experience caring for animals of all ages, from energetic youngsters to seniors who need a slower pace and a little extra patience. I'm comfortable with large dogs, multi-pet households, and pets with established routines that need to be followed carefully. Friends often describe me as observant and dependable. I pay attention to details, communicate clearly, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal's personality. Whether your pet is an adventure buddy, a professional napper, or a lovable troublemaker, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you're away. As a lifelong animal owner, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I will treat them with the same attention and respect I give my own. I currently have flexible availability most days of the week and can often accommodate pet care requests around my existing animal care responsibilities. Caring for animals is already a part of my daily routine, so I understand the importance of consistency, communication, and showing up when expected. Beginning in August, my availability will shift as I start graduate school, and I will primarily be available on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. I believe in being upfront about scheduling and only accepting bookings that I can fully commit to, so you can count on reliable care and clear communication. Every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to follow it as closely as possible. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets have fresh water, meals (if needed), potty breaks, exercise, and attention tailored to their personality. Some pets want to play, some want belly rubs, and some prefer a quiet companion who respects their space. For walks, I focus on safety, consistency, and making sure your dog gets both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I pay attention to weather conditions, energy levels, and each dog's comfort and confidence. I also keep an eye on the little things. As someone who has cared for animals for many years, I know that changes in appetite, energy, mobility, or behavior can be important. If I notice something unusual, I will communicate it promptly. In a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the household itself. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable and cared for while you're away, and for you to come home to a happy pet and a home just as you left it.
