“Cathrin was wonderful! She took great care of Wylie and kept me updated throughout his stay. Despite his neediness, she made sure he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It gave me so much peace of mind while I was away, and I would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Had a last minute booking with Carmen since something came up & she was very kind to let us book with her on such short notice. She was very happy with open arms willing to watch our little girl. We keep booking with her because she treats Dolly like her own & is amazing with communication. We have had no issues & she’s become like a 3rd grandmother to Dolly. I can go on & on about Carmen & how amazing she is. Highly recommend booking with her.”
“Amber is fantastic. For Buddy's stays its like a vacation for him. Amber is so good to him. And as Mr Social, little Buddy loves spending his time in the company and large yard with other dogs. Thank you so much. Phillip & Sally”
“Kyle was INCREDIBLE!! it was my first time leaving my pup, and he eased all my nerves! He kept me updated with so many pics and videos throughout her stay, and I’m pretty sure she was more sad to see me because she knew she had to leave. She’s had so much fun and we can’t wait to visit our new friends soon!💕”
“Radha & Bart were great hosts, Pebbles had a fun time with them! We enjoyed the cute photo and video updates and felt she was in very capable hands. Would definitely board Pebbles with them again!”
“Amanda did a great job looking after our Cali. She had a Christmas present waiting for her, which was unexpected and a nice surprise, and kept us updated on Cali's stay. We weren't aware there would.be so many other dogs during her stay, but Amanda seemed to make it all work! She was a great choice, especially willing to share her family's holidays with our pup. Highly recommend.”
“I left my 5 year old pup with Chad for around 40 days, Chad took really good care of my pup and he sent updates everyday. He also showered my pup and trimmed his paws. Whisky was clean and tidy on the day on pickup. I would definitely drop my pup again in future without any hesitation.”
“5/5 stars!!! Provided a bunch of activities for our puppy to do and was super kind to provide numerous videos and photos throughout his boarding Period! Definitely will use again and recommend!”
“Mina was great! She stopped by to meet the boys a couple weeks before they would be staying with her. They loved her right away. Very responsive and gives us lots of updates about our pups.”
“Lindsey was terrific! She gave frequent updates with pictures. She also has a corgi named Zoe that is extremely cute! We are glad Biscuit has a corgi friend now. Lindsey is also very thoughtful and fed Biscuit throughout his stay, also letting him use Zoe’s crate. I would definitely book again and recommend Lindsey to anyone else looking for boarding services!”
“Our dog Husker was fortunate to stay with Jerica for 9 days! He appeared happy and tired when we brought him back home. She provided very regular updates which helped us feel relieved about leaving him behind so long. We knew he was in good hands having a good time. We’ve already booked another stay for Husker with Jerica and we are so happy we found a great person who is well prepared to care for him and provide an awesome environment for our dog!!!”
“Kayla is wonderful - always responsive and takes great care of Zag! We are sorry that she is moving out of state and will miss her! Highly recommend without reservation - your dog will be happy ;)”
“Bishop is very much my baby, so leaving her for three weeks while I was traveling was hard. Knowing she was with Gloria made such a huge difference. Gloria was absolutely wonderful with her. I especially appreciated all of the updates and pictures she sent throughout the trip. Getting to see Bishop’s face, hear how she was doing, and know that she was happy and comfortable gave me so much peace of mind while I was so far away. It was clear that Gloria didn’t just make sure Bishop was fed and cared for — she genuinely cared about her and made her feel safe and loved. When I picked Bishop up, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly had been very well taken care of. I’m incredibly grateful to Gloria for taking such good care of my girl and for keeping me connected to her while I was away. I would absolutely trust her with Bishop again and highly recommend her to anyone who wants someone who will care for their pet like family.”
“Andrew was amazing with our old guy! Griffey can sometimes be a grumpy old man and Andrew was SO kind, patient and understanding. Griffey was so well taken care of and we got lots of updates.”
“Sarah is the best! I almost don’t want to write a review because I want to gate keep her for myself! My dog clearly loved her, he looked so comfortable and happy in all of the photos she sent me. She made my trip so stress free knowing he was in such great hands. She sent lots of photos and updates, I would definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone.”
“Jehisson was amazing with my dog! He was reliable, kind, and kept me updated the whole time. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup. I’d absolutely book with them again.”
“Cheyanne was great! She touched base with me at least twice a day. It’s been awhile since I’ve left Copper with someone we did not know, but she put me at ease. I also love that she only sits 1 dog at a time. Would definitely use her again!”

“Kellie did a fantastic job caring for our two cats while we were away for 10 days. We were anxious because we had never left them for so long before. Kellie provided photos and updates daily which gave us confidence that the fur kids were well cared for. Kellie also went above and beyond when a pesky raccoon kept sabotaging the outside feeder. We will definitely use Kellie’s services again.”
“This was our second time using Virginia to come over and take care of our cats. We were lucky enough that she was able to come by every day for two weeks straight while we were on vacation. Virginia kept us up-to-date on our cats and if we had any packages delivered to the house. We'll definitely ask for her assistance next time. 5 stars”
“Mia was absolutely great! We will absolutely be using her again in the future. She was always on time and if anything changed she communicated that to us. She followed all the directions that we left for her. She spent a lot of time with beans and also sent us very cute videos and pictures”
“Layla and Gracie provided a drop-in for my 3 pups. They were very prompt, loving, and provided some great pics. I’m looking forward to their overnight stay here soon, knowing my dogs are in great hands.”
“Marsha is wonderful! She took on our 5 kitties while we were out of town for a few days and she was very dependable and communicative. We received regular updates and pictures with every visit and the kitties were very well cared for. 🩷 I would definitely recommend Marsha!”
“Kylee did a great job caring for Meeko & Winston. She had good attention to detail, especially with their routine along with Meeko’s medications. Thorough & useful notes on the daily card.”
“Kyle was amazing! He provided drop ins for my 3 dogs while I was out of town with only a few days notice. He was willing to stop by for a meet and greet a few days before I left so I was able to walk through their routine with him. He also sent several pictures of my dogs during his check ins. Honestly, some of the best pictures I have of them and they always looked so happy in each of them. Will definitely be booking again.”
About: I enjoy caring for cats and getting to know their unique personalities. I understand that many cats prefer a calm environment and time to warm up to new people, so I always approach them with patience and respect for their space. During visits I make sure litter boxes are clean, food and water are fresh, and cats receive attention based on what they’re comfortable with—whether that’s playtime, brushing, or simply quiet companionship. I pay close attention to each cat’s behavior and routine so they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you know your cat is doing well. My goal is to provide reliable, gentle care so your cat can stay relaxed in their familiar environment.

We really appreciated the friendly vibes, great communication, and most of all, how loved and well cared for our baby was. ❤️ Definitely the best experience we’ve had on Rover! We would absolutely book with Daniela again! 🐾✨”
“Kyle was very friendly and professional when I dropped my dog off to him, he was flexible with my work schedule. I highly recommend him. I could tell that my dog had a good time when I picked him up. I for sure will use him in the future. Thank you Kyle!”
About: I have my own dog Zoe who I currently care for. She was potty trained, crate trained, and house trained starting at 8 weeks. I’m free all day for your pets needs. I have open availability through the week. I’m free to care for and entertain your pet through out the day. My dog Zoe would love to have a play date with your dog. I have a fenced in yard and a big neighborhood that will allow your dog to get fresh air and nice walks. My neighborhood dog park is also just right down the street from my house. I have a medium sized crate that is available for your pets use while staying.
About: Hello There! My name is Carolann - I have tons of experience both professionally as well as personally working with cats and dogs. I have grown up with animals all my life, not ever the same without them. I did a 1 1/2 years of veterinary assistant program; here I learned about animal behavior, grooming, care, and safe animal restraint. I also worked in a boarding facility at an animal hospital for about 7 months, where we would board multiple dogs at one time (all breeds and sizes). I would give the dogs bathes, nail trims, water throughout the day and feed per owner instructions/schedule. I enjoy playing fetch, and challenging the dogs to try tricks and training manners. I do work a part time job at a dog boarding facility but very flexible hours and have a 3 year old son. He is amazing with all animals and enjoys throwing the ball for them. I'm home all day to allow for potty breaks and to keep the fur babies attention/company. Their health and well-being is number one priority. I have a large corner lot in Homestead. Decent space for dog(s) run and use the space to their likely. Even have a large Reviene located behind my house for a short stroll around the neighborhood.
About: Hi, My name is Mia. I have about ten years of experience working with animals from animal shelters to vet clinics. I have experience fostering over fifty pets, including bottle babies and pets with special needs. I currently work as a legal assistant. M-F 10:00-5:00. PLEASE ENSURE YOU BOOK WITH ENOUGH TIME FOR A MEET & GREET TO BE SCHEDULED PRIOR TO MY FIRST VISIT. This is for my safety and the safety of your pets. I am always open to negotiation, but please keep in mind this helps pay my bills. I do have my own dog, but if your dog needs to stay overnight in my home, they will be kept separate. I am very responsible and would love to meet you and your fur babies. If you have any questions, please ask me :) Can’t wait to meet you. I work 10-5, but I work from home. Visits before and after are easy when in Elgin or nearby. If I pet sit at home, I will keep separate from my pet. It depends on what is needed, per the pets needs. I am happy to stop by, clean up, let them out and feed during visits.
“Raquel was the perfect pet sitter! She was very friendly and accommodating. I received plenty of photo and video updates during my puppy’s stay and she looked like she was having a great time. I especially appreciated her sending many pictures of her interacting with my puppy, I know she received plenty of attention during her stay. I would highly recommend this pet sitter!”
“This was my pups first Rover experience and Amber was so great at making me feel comfortable. She sent me photos throughout the day and gave me updates. My pup was well cared for and had lots of fun!”
About: I've taken care of many animals in the course of years. From guinea pigs to cats and dogs to fishes and farm animals. I love animals and love learning about them. I work a flex schedule at a warehouse where I can plan my own schedule, rest assured I can work around different schedules to make sure to take care of the pets and have them as higher priority I have many pets at home. I have cats, dogs and chickens. If your pet isn't keen to being around other animals I will keep them indoors with me and take them out on a leash for the bathroom or to walk around away from the other animals. Your pets are the priority, I can care for them from early in the morning to late in the day and do overnight stays
“Amanda is an amazing dog sitter that I highly, highly recommend. She is not only responsive, prompt and flexible, but she is also kind and loving. Truly authentic and has a heart of gold. My husky/german sheppard mix Ghost has not only been taken care of while at her house, but he has been truly loved and cared for. I can’t recommend Amanda enough for any pet service you may be looking for.”
“First time with Gracie, and Milo did very well. He has a new friend in Mocha. Gracie tried to engage him, even though he usually keeps to himself. Very good experience and we are happy with the care that Milo received. 🥰”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Hope! Booking last-minute was stressful, but she was so understanding and flexible with our schedule. Not only did she accommodate our late pick-up, but she also went above and beyond by sending us regular updates and adorable photos, which truly put our minds at ease. Her communication was exceptional, and it was clear that our dog was in the best hands. Whiskey came back happy and relaxed, and we couldn’t ask for more. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and flexible dog sitter!”
About: Dogs have been a central part of my life since I was 7 years old. I grew up caring for both Cocker Spaniels and German Shepherds, so I know what it takes to care for energetic, intelligent, and strong-willed dogs! I have also helped a few shelters back in Russia so I'm comfortable managing different temperaments, and I tailor my care to fit each dog’s needs. I treat every dog like they’re part of my pack, and my goal is always to make your pup feel safe, seen, and loved while you're away. I'm pretty flexible right now as my only responsibility is my school so whether it's daily drop-ins, evening walks, or weekend sitting, I’ll make sure your pup gets the attention and care they need. If you need morning times just message me and we can work something out. In your home, I aim to keep your dog’s routine consistent and stress free. I’m respectful of your space and make sure your pet gets personalized care: walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship.

Lovely people who sincerely look after our dog, and send lots of pictures and updates, which we appreciate so much. Highly recommended!!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs through both owning my own dogs and providing boarding for other families’ pets. Caring for dogs has been a meaningful part of my life, and I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I have experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with feeding, daily walks, playtime, crate routines, basic grooming, administering oral medication, and caring for senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. Because I care for only one to three dogs at a time, I can provide personalized attention in a calm, low-stress environment. My home has a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, exercise, and relax under close supervision. I understand that every owner wants to know their pet is happy and safe. That’s why I provide regular photo and video updates throughout each stay and follow each dog’s routine as closely as possible to help them feel at home. My goal is to give every dog a safe, loving, and comfortable experience while giving their family complete peace of mind. Welcome! I’m a dedicated dog lover who provides a safe, comfortable, and loving home where your dog will be treated like family. I live in a single-family home with a fully fenced backyard, giving dogs plenty of room to play, explore, and enjoy fresh air in a secure environment. Because I spend most of my time at home, your dog will receive lots of attention, supervision, companionship, and affection throughout the day. I intentionally accept only one to three dogs at a time so every guest receives personalized care instead of being part of a large group. I understand that every dog has different needs. Whether your pup is energetic, shy, a senior dog, or requires medication, I’ll carefully follow your instructions and maintain their regular routine. My goal is to make your dog feel relaxed, happy, and loved while you’re away. You’ll never have to wonder how your dog is doing. I’ll send multiple photo and video updates every day so you can enjoy your trip with complete peace of mind, knowing your best friend is having a wonderful time. For your convenience, I also offer pick-up and drop-off services. I speak both English and Mandarin Chinese, making communication easy for both English-speaking and Chinese-speaking families. Your dog’s safety always comes first. I provide a clean, calm, smoke-free, pet-friendly home where every dog is cared for with patience, kindness, and respect. I truly enjoy building trust with both pets and their families, and I look forward to welcoming your furry friend into my home. Thank you for considering me. I can’t wait to meet you and your beloved companion! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my highest priorities. I live in a clean, smoke-free single-family home with a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play under my supervision. I never leave dogs unattended outside, and I make sure they have a secure, comfortable indoor space to rest and relax. I only accept a small number of dogs at a time so I can provide each pet with plenty of individual attention and closely monitor their behavior. I carefully follow each owner’s feeding schedule, exercise routine, medication instructions, and any special care requests to help pets feel comfortable and maintain their normal routine. Before introducing dogs to one another, I consider their personalities and comfort levels to ensure a safe and positive experience. If needed, I can keep dogs separated to reduce stress and provide one-on-one care. Throughout your pet’s stay, I’ll send regular photo and video updates so you always know how they’re doing. If I notice any changes in your pet’s behavior or health, I’ll contact you immediately and follow your instructions. If an emergency ever occurs, I will seek veterinary care right away and keep you informed every step of the way. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, low-stress environment where every pet feels at home and every owner feels confident and reassured.
About: We both grew up with dogs of various sizes and love all animals. We have over 13 years of experience with caring for our own dogs, one of which has allergies and anxiety and requires routine medications. We will treat and love your dog as our own! Because of my WFH schedule, I have lots of flexibility to provide potty breaks, play with, and walk your pup throughout the day! I will stick to their routine and provide pictures and updates during their stay. We have a spacious home with a fenced backyard and a sweet 8 year-old dog, Rylee, who loves other dogs. We have used Rover for over four years, so we understand how important it is to find a sitter you can trust to love and care for your fur baby like you do. We are responsible pet parents who prioritize their comfort, safety, and needs. **Please note: we require a meet and greet prior to all new client bookings to ensure the dogs get along and to answer any questions you may have.
“Jax seemed to have had a fun time spending the day with Jordan and her pets. Jordan was great at sending me updates and pictures. Jax will be staying a few days with Jordan in the near future so it was great for them to spend a full day together getting to know each other.”
About: Hi there! I’m a Minnesota born, Bastrop-based dog lover and I’m glad you’ve found my profile. I've been around dogs my entire life and believe a dog makes a house a home. My own fur baby, Milou, is a 5 year old lab mix who loves other dogs and people. He will gladly accept a pal to join us on walks, or chase around the backyard. I have 5+ years experience volunteering with various animal shelters and a plethora of nights & weekends spent house/dog sitting for friends and family. I love to explore new trails, parks, & hikes so your pup's stay will be an active one! I am also a runner and will gladly take your dog along to burn off some extra energy. I took a couple years off from Rover as my family relocated several times. Now that we are settled in the Austin area, I am ready to get back to dog sitting/walking/boarding, and hope to meet you soon! I work from home so I am around to provide company, potty breaks, and perhaps even a lunchtime trip to the dog park! Canine coworkers are my favorite. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space to roam safely. My dog loves hanging out back there and would enjoy a teammate to help him put the neighborhood squirrels in their place ;)

About: I've had a lot of pets in my life. I currently have 6 dogs and 3 cats. I have experience with reactive dogs and dog selective dogs. I deal mostly with large and extra large dogs but have owned medium and small dogs. I've worked for a boarding kennel before so I have some professional experience with that. I am also a current foster to shelter dogs so I see different breeds and personalities all the time. I work a full time job. I work nights so I'm usually available during the day early mornings and evenings on the days I work. I can always find a way to make it work. I have dogs that do not get along with other dogs or people. I am very used to a crate and rotate schedule and I'm very conscious of my dogs mood and behavior. I also have foster dogs, so I have new dogs in and out and ensuring safety is my top priority.

I also have a dog and indoor/outdoor cat and have trained them to get along and perform jobs.I I am a work from home entrepreneur with 1 acre who also works with a local farm on 20 acres, so there is always plenty of space and time to take care of animals.

Otherwise I can monitor them or walk them around the property. I have en elderly dog who may play with your dog(s) or who may keep to himself.

About: I have been working with Rover for over 5 years. My 13-year-old lab crossed the rainbow bridge a few years ago, so I do not have any pets in my home and we do not take more than one family at a time. Animals are the best part of our world and nothing makes me happier than spending time with dogs and cats. I also volunteer for PALS, a program under Meals on Wheels, that provides food for animals in senior homes. I loved to walk my dog and would be more than happy to provide dog walking services to others on the weekends. I work weekdays, but am available before 8am after 5 pm and can provide services on Saturdays & Sundays. I cannot wait to meet your beloved pet. I currently work weekdays, but can devote time after work and weekends. I can utilize lunch breaks to check on pets and nights and weekends for more one on one time. I own a home with a fenced in yard for my dog. I will do anything and everything to ensure your animal’s safety and happiness.
About: Hi, I’m Nyeira! As a dedicated pet owner and animal lover, I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision. My goal is to provide the same level of care, attention, and love that I would want for my own dogs. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 8 years and currently have three dogs of my own. Two were adopted from shelters, and one was a stray I rescued while in college. Caring for pets from different backgrounds has taught me patience, consistency, and how to help animals feel safe and comfortable in new situations. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with their dogs and cats because they know I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and take their care seriously. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior companions, and I am comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I will make sure they receive personalized care and attention. I am experienced with dogs of all sizes, although I generally prefer working with dogs under 80 pounds. Communication is extremely important to me. As a pet parent myself, I know how reassuring it is to receive updates while you’re away. You can expect consistent communication, photos, and updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I currently have open availability and ask that bookings or cancellations be made at least 48 hours in advance whenever possible. I am dependable, attentive, and committed to making every pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I have a very flexible schedule and am available both weekdays and weekends, with open availability throughout the day to accommodate your pet’s needs. I am able to provide care in the form of house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, depending on what works best for you and your pet. While I do not offer boarding in my home, I am fully committed to caring for pets in their familiar environment where they feel most comfortable. I am adaptable with timing and happy to follow your preferred schedule and routine to ensure consistency and comfort for your pet. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care whenever you need it, with clear communication and dependable availability. I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency in every pet care situation. While I do not offer boarding in my own home, I provide care in the client’s home through house sitting, drop-in visits, and walks so pets can remain in a familiar and comfortable environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all provided instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication routines, exercise needs, and any specific behavioral or comfort preferences. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routine and personality to ensure they feel safe and secure while their owner is away. I am experienced with dogs of all ages and am comfortable administering medications when needed. I also provide consistent updates, including messages and photos, so pet parents can feel confident and reassured while they are away. My goal is always to create a calm, trustworthy presence for pets—minimizing stress by maintaining their normal routine and treating their space and care instructions with respect and attentiveness.
About: I’ve taken care of puppies to senior dogs, as well as kittens to senior cats. I have experience giving medications to pets as well. I also have experience bathing, walking, and feeding. I’m currently working full time remotely at home. I have the flexibility to leave home to check on any fur babies when I need to. I have two kittens and a senior dog. They are very playful but are scared of bigger dogs at the moment. We are working on them seeing there is nothing to fear of.

If you need morning times just message me and we can work something out. In your home, I aim to keep your dog’s routine consistent and stress free. I’m respectful of your space and make sure your pet gets personalized care: walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship.
About: Hi! I love meeting new animals and getting to know their unique personalities. Every pet is different, and I enjoy learning what makes each one feel comfortable, happy, and safe. For the past three years I’ve been actively working on training my own dog, which has helped me learn a lot about patience, communication, and understanding animal behavior. That experience has made me even more passionate about caring for animals and helping them feel supported in new environments. I love helping animals and figuring out what works best for them—whether that’s playtime, a relaxing walk, or just a calm place to rest. My goal is always to make pets feel secure and cared for while their owners are away. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give pets lots of attention throughout the day. I’m available most weekdays and weekends and can accommodate regular walks, drop-ins, or sitting. I always aim to follow your pet’s normal routine and provide updates during visits. Your pet’s safety and comfort are very important to me. I take time to understand each animal’s routine and personality so they feel secure and relaxed. I use safe handling practices, supervise pets closely, and maintain a calm environment. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: Animals hold a massive piece of my heart, and I have dedicated my life to their care and well-being. My mission began over 15 years ago when I started rescuing animals and finding them loving forever homes. Over the years, I have deepened this commitment by working directly in animal shelters, volunteering, and fostering for rescues. For me, ensuring that animals live a life full of love, safety, and happiness is truly a life calling. I have been a professional pet sitter for over eight years. Because of my extensive background in shelter environments and rescue work, I am deeply comfortable working with all breeds, sizes, and unique behaviors. Full-Time Dedicated Care I recently relocated from Houston to Paige, where I continue to pursue pet care as my dedicated, full-time profession. Because this is my full-time job, I am able to offer an exceptional level of quality care and attentiveness that sets my services apart. We are now settled on a beautiful one-acre of land with tons of open space for your pets to enjoy! It is the perfect, peaceful setting for animals to explore safely and relax.

About: I understand that we live in a busy world so when you book me I make sure to treat your dog(s) like my own! I always feel accomplished when I bring a dog home that has been worn out, and I'm always patient with dogs that are not so easy on walks (big dogs, reactive dogs, dogs who are anxious and dont really like walks). I have lived in Austin for 22 years and I am familiar with many neighborhoods and parks so I am able to take your pup on longer, more mentally stimulating walks rather than just walking around the same block again and again! I appreciate you choosing me to spend time with your pup(s) and I'm am excited to explore Austin with your fur babies!
“Carolann is wonderful, punctual and communicates very well. She was so helpful as we traveled into Steamboat with our two pups. Every day she came to meet us at our motel ready to walk our pups in snow for an hour. We knew our pups loved her because they came back exercised and ready to nap.”
About: Can guarantee your fur baby will be treated as my own while in my care and have lots of loving and playing time. I go on walks daily in our neighborhood we have beautiful trails that range up to 3 miles, a dog park to play fetch and a pond with lots of wildlife for sightseeing. They will definitely get lots of cuddles from me around the clock since I’m working from home, I have a 3 YO friendly Doberman who loves having company and playing with in the backyard. I have experience sitting, walking and dropping in on family/friends pets and also local neighbors. Please reach out if you have any questions ☺️ I work from home full time during the week and can drop in if needed to at your house to let the dog out and for feeds. Evenings and weekends hours vary so please reach out for more info. I live in a great neighborhood that is very dog friendly filled with trails, a dog park and a pond with wildlife walking around it. My yard is a good sized for my Doberman to run around in and fenced. I have 2 older children who love dogs as much as I do to give extra loving. My Doberman is friendly and is the only one in this house so he gets excited to be able to play with new friends.
About: I've taken care of many animals in the course of years. From guinea pigs to cats and dogs to fishes and farm animals. I love animals and love learning about them. I work a flex schedule at a warehouse where I can plan my own schedule, rest assured I can work around different schedules to make sure to take care of the pets and have them as higher priority I have many pets at home. I have cats, dogs and chickens. If your pet isn't keen to being around other animals I will keep them indoors with me and take them out on a leash for the bathroom or to walk around away from the other animals. Your pets are the priority, I can care for them from early in the morning to late in the day and do overnight stays

“Kyle was INCREDIBLE!! it was my first time leaving my pup, and he eased all my nerves! He kept me updated with so many pics and videos throughout her stay, and I’m pretty sure she was more sad to see me because she knew she had to leave. She’s had so much fun and we can’t wait to visit our new friends soon!💕”
“I left my 5 year old pup with Chad for around 40 days, Chad took really good care of my pup and he sent updates everyday. He also showered my pup and trimmed his paws. Whisky was clean and tidy on the day on pickup. I would definitely drop my pup again in future without any hesitation.”

“Our dog Husker was fortunate to stay with Jerica for 9 days! He appeared happy and tired when we brought him back home. She provided very regular updates which helped us feel relieved about leaving him behind so long. We knew he was in good hands having a good time.
