“Clara was a fantastic puppy sitter. We were a little nervous as this was the first time we have left our dog with anyone but family but Clara was awesome. Ruby loved that she had other dogs to play with and they did some fun things with her throughout her stay. I especially loved that she came home freshly bathed smelling yummy and her fur was so smooth. Clara was great to send us updates and pics throughout our trip which we all loved!”
“Fin was very well taken care of! We enjoyed the updates we received from Kristen and Spencer, and it helped us know he was doing well. He was loved on, taken out for a walk, and given water to play in. They were also very understanding when our drop off/pick up times were different from what was originally planned. We appreciated their understanding and patience. We wouldn’t hesitate to take him back!”
“Phenomenal! Katherine took amazing care of our dog. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. She took him on daily walks, and made sure he got lots of cuddles. I would recommend her 10/10! Thank you. ❤️❤️”
“What an amazing experience! They took our two dogs in, made them feel comfortable and loved them like their own. They sent pics and messages letting me know how things were going, giving us peace of mind to enjoy our trip”
“Emily was amazing with my puppy! She was patient, sent me lots of updates, and made sure my puppy had a wonderful time, even when he was missing me. Her kids loved showering my puppy with attention, and he clearly enjoyed his stay with her.”
“Our first time having Jared watch our dog, and it was very last minute! Jared had great communication with us and kept us updated on our pup, who was happy and at ease with Jared when we picked him up. Plan to use him again for another Rover stay.”
About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals, everything from turtles to goats, dogs to chickens! I’m flexible and willing to work with you however I can! I am a stay at home mom to 4 little ones. During the school year, 3 of them are gone most of the day. Other than nap time in the afternoon, I’m generally very flexible! I will always take great care of your animal and treat them like my own. I have 4 small children so any pet that would come to my home would have to be really good with kids. I’m happy to do pop in visits at your home if you are unsure about how they will do with kids. Being crate trained for night time is very beneficial!
“Beverly was amazing!! She kept us updated on how Tilly was doing with videos and pictures! I know Tilly had so much fun while she was there and was taken care of! Will be taking Tilly here every time!”
“Calista and her family were absolutely wonderful! Remi was so well loved and cared for, and made me feel at ease during our time away! Very communicative throughout the time we were away & sent the most adorable pictures & updates of our pup. Will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Very responsive. It was our first time leaving the dog with a sitter and they made us feel comfortable and confident the dog was fine the whole weekend. Would definitely rebook!”
“Atie was quick to communicate and asked if I wanted updates on my dog while I was away. She sent pictures and took such good care of Mika. My dog came home happy and healthy. We are grateful for great homes like Atie’s for Mika to stay at. We would definitely rebook with Atie.”
“Rebeca was great! She provided us with updates & pictures everyday. We loved being able to see & hear about our boy, Pluto, to ease our mind while on vacation. We missed him so much, but felt as though Pluto was very welcomed & cared for. Pluto had a blast with Rebeca’s dog, Nico, and enjoyed their daily walks and visits to the dog park. We are very grateful for Rebeca & Nico ☺️”
“Samantha was fantastic! She took great care of our dog and even went the extra mile when I had to change our reservation due to a family illness. She was kind enough to offer to bring our dog home for us. I will not hesitate to use her services again.”

Cat caregivers near you - Penrose
About: Hi, I’m Maegyn – a lifelong cat lover with over 14 years of experience caring for cats of all kinds! Cats have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for indoor cats, outdoor cats, playful kittens, and special-needs cats with unique medical needs. My experience has taught me to understand and respect each cat’s individual personality—whether they’re shy and independent or cuddly and curious. I currently share my home with a rescued cat who was abandoned near our family farm. Giving him a second chance and a loving home has been one of the most rewarding parts of my journey with animals. My love for cats runs deep, and I take pride in creating a calm, safe, and enriching environment for every feline I care for. Whether your cat needs daily check-ins, playful interaction, or just a cozy lap to nap on, I’m here to offer compassionate and reliable care. I’d love to help make your time away stress-free—both for you and your cat!
“I can tell Taysha has such a big heart for animals and truly cares about the well being and comfort of my pets. I felt like I could trust her 100% while I was away, which made my own trip worry-free knowing she was watching over them. Thank you Taysha!”
About: I have experience with various different types of animals including cats, and dogs. I love how special and unique each animal is and I love to get to know them and getting to know their personalities. I am working full time and going to school I typically don't work mornings and a couple days during the week I am off and I can stop by and check on them throughout the week. I do anything and everything I can do to take the best care of them, and I always make their health top priority. And treat them like royalty and babies
“Maesynn was excellent doing drop-in visits for my young cat Jelly. We did a meet and greet between her and Jelly so they could meet before starting the visits. During my time, she provided details of kitty's behavior and overall well-being with the Rover report card and added pictures to complement. I would recommend her services and hope to again!”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have cared for cats of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Friends and family regularly trust me to feed and look after their pets. I’m comfortable with senior cats or those with special routines or needs. I focus on keeping pets safe and happy, while always treating them like my own. I’m also attentive to instructions, punctual, and happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind.

About: I am a human mom, dog mom, and teacher looking to make some extra income throughout the summer. In this family, we’re always around animals. For questions or wanting to schedule care, please reach out! As a teacher, I have the majority of summers off. I’ll be home each day looking for something to keep busy outside of caring for my kids. In previous jobs my responsibilities included taking care of 1-4 pets at a time (cats and dogs). I was asked to feed them and let them outside. On top of this I played with them, took them on walks, gave them treats and attention, and brushed them. I can take on any pet responsibilities you may need when out of the home.
“Kianna did an amazing job. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for the right fit for your fur babies. She did everything we asked and more. By the end of her visits our kitties seemed to grow very comfortable with her.”
“John takes terrific care of Our Lennon. Gives him attention when Lennon, wants it. He takes him for walks outside on his leash to get the exercise and, make sure that he eats OK on schedule. He’s definitely a great animal care person.”
“Maddison was great with my three dogs over Christmas. She handled multiple medications, food guarding issues, and everything else that came along like a champ. She even helped teach one of them return the ball more consistently during fetch. They all loved her and she was very communicative with me. I would definitely use Maddison again!”

I can also take your dogs to dog parks and also walk them around your neighborhood. My wife and kids live in our own home and will treat your home and pets respectfully.
About: I’ve fostered 5 different dogs from the Humane Society of Utah (3 wks - 2 mo each). I was responsible for feeding, exercising, administering meds, and providing water for the dogs. I volunteered for Second Chance for Homeless Pets, where I cleaned kennels, fed animals, completed simple cleaning tasks, & bathed a dog. I cometed 4 semesters of the vet tech program at Broadview University, where I learned about proper veterinary care, including administering meds, making general health assessments, walking dogs, cleaning kennels/clinic/classrooms, etc. During this time, I completed a preceptorship at Sugarhouse Veterinary Hospital, where I was able to sit in on a surgery. I worked as a vet tech at Banfield Pet Hospital for 3 months. I also worked at The City Pet Club Dog Daycare & Boarding facility and I’ve been dog sitting for the past 6 years. I have my own all natural dog treats and dog shampoo and a defurminator deshedding brush tool. I currently work from home and am very flexible and mobile for the purpose of taking care of your fur babies. I love all animals and would be privileged to watch yours. Water, food, treats, baths, walks, hiking, runs, dog park visits, dog pool visits, ball/toys, able to administer meds and address wounds, etc. I am a very good dog masseuse. Haha

“Ashley really did a great job with my pups. From the first meet and greet to the days she stopped in. She kept in touch with me and send me pictures. She is very professional and loving. I will be using her in the future and highly recommend!!”
About: I love all sorts of pets and, worked with elder, small dogs, and puppies also helped deliver a few; used to be my uncles helper on his ranch. I do hike a lot on trails, I like to stay active by walking around town or just adventuring new places. I’m also good with kittens, horses, most animals used to do volunteer work with shelters and also worked at petco which I dealt with all sorts of sizes of furry little babies. I’m currently working part time with U of U and, have a flexible schedule. I also have a ton of free time as of right now and wouldn’t mind caring for your puppers. I do have my own crate I can bring but, I do tend to let pets be out in there homes I don’t really like locking them up unless they have issues on eating up furniture which I wouldn’t want that to happen. I do and will bring my own treats most treats I would bring would be from Trader Joe’s or open farm due to there ingredients being able to be tracked from the source. I do carry a bag full of doggie poop bags, a first aid spray and a pet corrector just in case of other dogs if we’re walking in a public area I do not like walking or taking pets to doggie parks just mainly because I don’t know how other pets would react to others.
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was younger, I have experience with dogs, cats, fish, horses, and even livestock! I have experience feeding, giving water, brushing horses, and more! I have a cat and a parrot of my own, so taking care of animals is in my daily routine. Making sure they are fed, have water, and are cleaned up after and most importantly happy! Unfortunately I wouldn’t be able to have your pets at my home, but I think having them in their own home keeps them happy and content. For potty time, I would go with dogs outside for safety and to keep a close eye on them.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Penrose
About: Evey dog has a good dog inside of them. I love training and walking dogs, it is rewarding and healthy for everyone. Experienced in training puppies, leash ,and crate training. I work from home and walk the dogs daily, rain or shine. Their exercise is important for their physical and mental health. We do brain work "tricks and skills" before feeding to help exercise all aspects of the dog. I have a fully fenced yard with two other dogs to keep your pal company during their stay. Someone is home all day everyday to bring dogs in and out. All animals are crated for the night to keep night time no-no's at zero.
“Absolutely amazing! Cody took our dogs for a walk, played with them, the house was clean and gated off for areas he didn’t want the dogs to explore. Fantastic communicator; we will absolutely use Cody and Amanda again.”
About: I grew up with 3 border collies in my home, so I’ve been helping with pet care for as long as I can remember. My husband and I adopted Penny, our sweet Australian Shepherd, two years ago and we have loved every second. I have never met a dog I didn’t love. I have often been told I have a knack for comforting anxious dogs. I work from home, so my schedule is fairly flexible during work hours. I often take my dog on a walk before work and in the evening after work. I’m flexible to leave work as needed and take dogs out as often as needed. I have a friendly Australian Shepherd who loves to play to keep your dog(s) company. My fur baby no longer uses her crate, so we have a crate that can be used for your dog when they visit if they like it. My husband is home in the evening after work to help with pet care.

About: Hi there! I’m Kati, and caring for pets has been a big part of my life for the past 15 years. I have extensive experience with small and medium-sized dogs and the past 2 years I’ve also cared for cats, so I understand the unique personalities and needs of both. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, cuddles, or making sure mealtime routines are followed, I treat every pet as if they were my own.

I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and patient — especially when it comes to pets who may be shy, energetic, or need a little extra care.

About: I've taken care of dogs most of my life. When I was younger our house was an animal shelter for many dogs, puppies, cats and kittens. I'd help my parents feed and water and clean up after them. I work part time so I have all day to care for your fur baby. I feed my dogs twice a day, once in the morning and again at dinner time. I feed them the correct amount so they can stay fit and healthy! I'd feed your dog under your direct preference. We enjoy walks especially to the park! I have a fenced in yard, 3 dogs to keep your fur baby entertain! I can easily crate your baby if needed! The dogs have free range of the back yard. I let them out multiple times a day!
About: My earliest memories are of playing with dogs. As an adult I love my kitties and will care for any furry, scaley or feathered friends. Every day I care for my dog and 4 cats. The trip to the nearby park is a routine where I find refuge. I have flexibility with my work schedule and can make most times fit. I have a fenced yard where pets can roam free without fear of antagonism or being set loose in the neighborhood. I give each memeber of the clan daily attention and individual care.
“Atie was great and would highly recommend her. She communicated great, shared pictures and updates and was flexible on pick up times and coordination in general. Would definitely use Atie again!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and other animals. I grew up on a hobby farm in upstate New York, so caring for animals has always been a part of my life. From feeding and grooming to understanding different personalities and needs, I learned how important patience, consistency, and love are when it comes to animal care. I got my first dog, a German Shepherd named Zany, when I was 3 years old, and dogs have been a huge part of my life ever since. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm and reliable companion, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I’ll treat your animals like family. I am currently at home full time, so have plenty of time and attention to share! I’m currently available for boarding both during the week and on weekends, or can do drop-in visits if that works better for you. I have a large 1/2 acre lot (on a quiet cul-de-sac) for frequent potty breaks, play, and leg stretches. Even though my yard is not fenced, I live less than a block away from the local dog park - with sections for large and small breeds - so I can easily walk them there if they love being social, like me!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. Neighbors, friends, and family relied on me to walk, feed, train and board their pets Between other life adventures, I have plenty of time set aside for walking, training, boarding, and getting to know your dog personally and become best buds I have a large fenced yard that is secure and a crate for bedtime and/relaxing time for your dog to take a snooze in. Two resident cats on the premises. Plenty of toys to play with too. Did I mention my drawer full of tennis balls?
“Mary and her family was amazing with our little Miss Marlee Mae, She kept me updated through out the day. She is such an amazing person 💗 I will recommend her to anyone. I'm very pleased with her. I will use Mary forsure in the future. Thank you Mary for taking such good care of out baby girl ❤️”

“I feel so fortunate to have been able to work with Rebeca and her family. Her daughter and Nico, their dog took such good care of my dog. They treated her like a member of their family.”
About: Hey I’m Jen! I love all animals and I know how important it is to find someone who cares when you need help! I have had animals my whole life and grew up in the country with horses, goats, dogs, cats, rabbits and ducks! I previously worked as a veterinary technician and have been running this business since 2021. I currently have 6 fur children, 2 horses and 4 working dogs. Helping animals is a passion of mine. So when I see a wandering, lost critter, you better believe I’m picking them up and getting them home! I am a working mom of two ages 14 & 12 who both love animals and help out a lot. When you board with me your fur babies are always taken care of. They can run in the huge backyard, swim in the dog pool, lay in the shade, play with the toys and go on walks during the day, then have their own private space at night to sleep. I am currently working a 48/96 rotating schedule so I have a lot of availability in between those days. I will always do all that I can to fit your pet care needs into my schedule. I have a fully fenced large backyard, private kennel space for each dog for sleeping, eating and rotation with those that are in heat, intact or don’t get along with others. In your home, I will always go above and beyond to meet your wishes and keep things as close to normal operations for your pet as possible to avoid disruption to their lives.
“Could not recommend Sophonie enough! She took our very recently neutered puppy for day care and this paranoid dog mom could not have felt more comfortable! She is very communicative to ensure you stay in the loop, is flexible with timing, and goes above and beyond for your pup! Definitely will be booking again with her!”

About: Hi, I’m Maegyn – a lifelong animal lover with over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs! I grew up on a farm, where animals were a part of everyday life and caring for them came naturally. Over the years, I’ve raised and looked after a variety of animals, but dogs have always had a special place in my heart. I currently have two rescue dogs and one rescue cat—they’re my world! My love for animals extends beyond my home. I regularly volunteer at the local animal shelter, helping with everything from walking dogs to comforting nervous pets and assisting with adoptions. Through this, I’ve gained experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments – including those with hyper activity and anxiety. Whether your pup needs a patient walking partner, a cuddle buddy, or someone to match their energy, I’m here to provide safe, loving care tailored to their unique personality. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I treat every pet I meet like my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your pet! I’m a teacher with summers off, so my availability is wide open for pet care—perfect for consistent, flexible scheduling and plenty of attention for your pets! My active lifestyle keeps dogs happy and exercised, while my calm, loving care helps them feel safe, relaxed, and right at home—even when you’re away.

“Kiana has been a genuine gift to our family. We started with her about six months ago for our 14-year-old miniature schnauzer/French bulldog mix, Lucy — and over that time she became so much more than a dog walker. As Lucy’s health declined, Kiana adapted without hesitation — adjusting pace, duration, and handling — and never made us feel like we were asking too much. What stands out most is how much she genuinely cared. You can tell the difference between someone who likes dogs and someone who sees your dog. Kiana saw Lucy. She was patient with her on the slow days, gentle when Lucy needed it most, and flexible with our schedules in ways that took real stress off our family during a really hard season. We’re grateful as a family for every walk she gave our girl. If you have a senior dog or one with changing needs, Kiana is exactly who you want in your corner.”
About: Ever since my husband and I got our own dog we just love the idea of taking care of other pets. I understand how it feels when you go places or on vacation or whatever and you cannot take your furbabies with you. This reason is why we love taking care of our friends pets when they are away. It will ONLY be myself working and dog sitting. My husband is not part of this, he has his own things to do, and he watches our own furbaby. I am a full-time student and I only have 2 days out of 7 that are in person. I am flexible most of the days. Oh my boy is spoiled but not too spoiled. I always groom my dog by myself every other day. We put him first because hes our furbaby (even though he is 6 years old). We take him on walks twice a day for 15-30mins. I always offer to groom my friends pets that we look after; only if their furbaby allows it. For my friends with cats, I usually pet the cats after I take care of their dishes (food&water) only if they allow it.
About: I am a human mom, dog mom, and teacher looking to make some extra income throughout the summer. In this family, we’re always around animals. For questions or wanting to schedule care, please reach out! As a teacher, I have the majority of summers off. I’ll be home each day looking for something to keep busy outside of caring for my kids. In previous jobs my responsibilities included taking care of 1-4 pets at a time (cats and dogs). I was asked to feed them and let them outside. On top of this I played with them, took them on walks, gave them treats and attention, and brushed them. I can take on any pet responsibilities you may need when out of the home.
About: I’ve taken care of small animals(hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, etc), reptiles, dogs and cats since 2007, I am an animal lover who has a veterinary assistant certification. All animals welcome(even if they don’t show an option, reach out if you have hamsters/gerbils/mice/rats/birds/reptiles I am on admin leave from the IRS because of the RIFs. I am available any time for walks and pet sitting. Any schedule is fine If my client has a fenced in yard, I’ll let pets out into the yard play with them outside, cleaning up as needed. If no fenced in yard a long walk to make sure they have their exercise based on what each dog is willing and able to do.
About: As a huge nature and animal lover, I'm just made for exercising your pets! Big dogs to small dogs and every size in-between, we'll have a blast going for long walks together. Through years of horsemanship and some time working under an amazing dog trainer, I have a deep understanding of how animals learn. I will keep your pet safe on every adventure; and hopefully help them polish up their listening skills as needed! I have plenty of availability at the moment as I work part time. Afternoons and evenings work best for me currently- great for all the graveyard shift workers! I care for every animal like their my own- and trust me when I say I treat my pets like my babies. I understand how much they're a part of your family and will do everything in my power to keep them safe and happy.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life. They’ve grown with me and I’ve grown with them. I’ve trained many dogs and pups of all kind! Usually I feed my two pups and walk them daily. I make sure they’re groomed once a day (brushing, etc) and play with them or cuddle them constantly! I have a fenced yard and two dogs. They love people and playing. When I head upstairs into my living room in the morning it’s filled with tummy rubs and kisses as well as treats!
About: I’m Taysha! I am a professional dog groomer though I am taking a break from that to be a stay at home mom. I have always grown up with pets, dogs specifically and usually had 3-4 at a time. I currently have 3 dogs, a cat, 2 bunnies and a reptile collection! I’d love to sit your small animals and reptiles! I am a step mom to 4 humans with no less energy than my Aussie/Heelers. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs as well as puppies and I have owned a special needs (deaf) Great Dane so I know some basic hand signals for commands if needed. I talk to my own dogs like humans otherwise they freeze and cower so if any corrections are necessary I just use an “uh uh” or a “no” but no yelling or loud noises. If your pet responds to anything specific, just let me know and I will do my best to replicate the routine they have at their own home. I really try to make it as stress free as possible. I am a stay at home mom so I have a lot of extra time to spend with your pets! I have my human children part time so if your pets aren’t comfortable with children just ask me for more info on that schedule! I don’t have a fenced yard but I do have a 10x10 dog run if that makes you more comfortable. We use it for our dogs sunbathing. I spent every day meeting new animals and making them comfortable in my care when I’m grooming so that comes easy to me. I have hands on training because of my job and can recognize any concerning/critical signs of stress to keep your pet safe and happy! I go walking with my own animals so yours can tag along as long as you’re comfortable. I have an appropriately sized vehicle for any transporting if we field trip together, whether that includes a crate or a seatbelt compatible harness. (I also have pet car seats). I live next to a church that we use to play ball and I have a small dog pool that I keep in my yard for drinking or cooling off. I allow pets on my furniture and in my bed so as long as I’m not breaking any of your own house rules, your animals are included! I have a giant sized crate that is set up permanently so if your pet is crate trained I can provide that per your instruction. I don’t leave home for long periods of time (mostly just errands) so we naturally take potty breaks every 2 hours or so as well as before I leave and after I get home if I have to go anywhere. Please message me with any questions you have!
About: My wife and I have been doing rover now for about 3 years already. She has a rover account, and we’d be happy to take care of your pups. There’s very little we can’t or won’t do to accommodate any need you make have from drop off to pick-up let us know. We love animals and I think there no better way to make some additional income then to share our home with your fur babies. Also if I need to come to your home I’m happy to make them as comfortable at home the way you do as possible, until you get back. I’m always aware plans change if I need to watch them longer, or we need to adjust pick-up and drop off times that will never be a problem. We joke that we let the dogs out let the dogs in and then it’s time, to do it all over again :-) we are called all the dogs, because we want all the dogs. We have a fully fenced yard, and 3 fur babies for your pets to have play with. We also have an industrial awesome dog pool for them to play in the water or to just use as a big dish :-)
About: Whether it be walks to parks, dropping in or even staying with your fur babies… I’m your person. Don’t hesitate to reach out to me if you have questions! I work 6:30am to 2:30pm Monday through Friday here in North SLC, I can easily come in the mornings during lunch breaks in north Salt lake and anytime after work or on the weekends in the Ogden area. I am available for house stays. I can travel from North Salt Lake all the way up to Willard and everything in between. Don’t hesitate to ask! I have pretty large house, with a large sized yard and can accommodate but I’d rather come and visit your fur baby in the comfort of their own home. I find that it helps keep your fur baby stress free being in their own environment that they are use to and feel safe in.
About: I’ve fostered 5 different dogs from the Humane Society of Utah (3 wks - 2 mo each). I was responsible for feeding, exercising, administering meds, and providing water for the dogs. I volunteered for Second Chance for Homeless Pets, where I cleaned kennels, fed animals, completed simple cleaning tasks, & bathed a dog. I cometed 4 semesters of the vet tech program at Broadview University, where I learned about proper veterinary care, including administering meds, making general health assessments, walking dogs, cleaning kennels/clinic/classrooms, etc. During this time, I completed a preceptorship at Sugarhouse Veterinary Hospital, where I was able to sit in on a surgery. I worked as a vet tech at Banfield Pet Hospital for 3 months. I also worked at The City Pet Club Dog Daycare & Boarding facility and I’ve been dog sitting for the past 6 years. I have my own all natural dog treats and dog shampoo and a defurminator deshedding brush tool. I currently work from home and am very flexible and mobile for the purpose of taking care of your fur babies. I love all animals and would be privileged to watch yours. Water, food, treats, baths, walks, hiking, runs, dog park visits, dog pool visits, ball/toys, able to administer meds and address wounds, etc. I am a very good dog masseuse. Haha
About: I love all sorts of pets and, worked with elder, small dogs, and puppies also helped deliver a few; used to be my uncles helper on his ranch. I do hike a lot on trails, I like to stay active by walking around town or just adventuring new places. I’m also good with kittens, horses, most animals used to do volunteer work with shelters and also worked at petco which I dealt with all sorts of sizes of furry little babies. I’m currently working part time with U of U and, have a flexible schedule. I also have a ton of free time as of right now and wouldn’t mind caring for your puppers. I do have my own crate I can bring but, I do tend to let pets be out in there homes I don’t really like locking them up unless they have issues on eating up furniture which I wouldn’t want that to happen. I do and will bring my own treats most treats I would bring would be from Trader Joe’s or open farm due to there ingredients being able to be tracked from the source. I do carry a bag full of doggie poop bags, a first aid spray and a pet corrector just in case of other dogs if we’re walking in a public area I do not like walking or taking pets to doggie parks just mainly because I don’t know how other pets would react to others.
About: I have taken care of dogs of all shapes and sizes since I was a kid. I love providing that extra care pets need when life gets too busy. :) I am currently working from home so I am very flexible. My work is also very passive so I have plenty of time to provide undivided attention to your pet! I prefer to set up a meeting prior to care if at all possible to make sure your pet is comfortable. I am also very good at following detailed care instructions for your pet.
About: I’ve personally had 5 dogs since I was little. I’ve focused more on taking care of my one dog Niko, since we got him 3 years ago. I took great care of my dog that passed from cancer just a couple of months ago. I would love to make your cute fur babies happy and give you some time off from the craziness every once and a while! :) I am working part time, and my schedule does tend to change a bit. So letting me know a couple of days ahead of time when you want me to watch your cutie(s) would be great, so I can change it accordingly! I have a fenced yard, pooper scooper, good quality dog food, I clean my dogs bowl weekly, walk him 3 times a week and play with him as needed, and bathe him as needed! I care for my cute pup more than anything, so I promise i’ll give your pet the best as well!
About: I've had pets my whole life. I've been helping family take care of their pets for the past 25+ years. I've had my two dogs for almost a year now and I love having animals around I work as a CNA in home health care so I pretty much make my own schedule. I have plenty of downtime to help take care of your precious fur babies I have a fenced yard but with the number of dogs currently in my home I cannot have any more animals at my place. I'm more than happy to run around and play with any animals and crate them if needed

“Clara was a fantastic puppy sitter. We were a little nervous as this was the first time we have left our dog with anyone but family but Clara was awesome. Ruby loved that she had other dogs to play with and they did some fun things with her throughout her stay. I especially loved that she came home freshly bathed smelling yummy and her fur was so smooth. Clara was great to send us updates and pics throughout our trip which we all loved!”
“Fin was very well taken care of! We enjoyed the updates we received from Kristen and Spencer, and it helped us know he was doing well. He was loved on, taken out for a walk, and given water to play in. They were also very understanding when our drop off/pick up times were different from what was originally planned. We appreciated their understanding and patience. We wouldn’t hesitate to take him back!”
“Phenomenal! Katherine took amazing care of our dog. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. She took him on daily walks, and made sure he got lots of cuddles. I would recommend her 10/10! Thank you. ❤️❤️”
“What an amazing experience! They took our two dogs in, made them feel comfortable and loved them like their own. They sent pics and messages letting me know how things were going, giving us peace of mind to enjoy our trip”
“Our first time having Jared watch our dog, and it was very last minute! Jared had great communication with us and kept us updated on our pup, who was happy and at ease with Jared when we picked him up. Plan to use him again for another Rover stay.”
About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals, everything from turtles to goats, dogs to chickens! I’m flexible and willing to work with you however I can! I am a stay at home mom to 4 little ones. During the school year, 3 of them are gone most of the day. Other than nap time in the afternoon, I’m generally very flexible! I will always take great care of your animal and treat them like my own. I have 4 small children so any pet that would come to my home would have to be really good with kids. I’m happy to do pop in visits at your home if you are unsure about how they will do with kids. Being crate trained for night time is very beneficial!
“Beverly was amazing!! She kept us updated on how Tilly was doing with videos and pictures! I know Tilly had so much fun while she was there and was taken care of! Will be taking Tilly here every time!”
“Calista and her family were absolutely wonderful! Remi was so well loved and cared for, and made me feel at ease during our time away! Very communicative throughout the time we were away & sent the most adorable pictures & updates of our pup. Will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Very responsive. It was our first time leaving the dog with a sitter and they made us feel comfortable and confident the dog was fine the whole weekend. Would definitely rebook!”
“Rebeca was great! She provided us with updates & pictures everyday. We loved being able to see & hear about our boy, Pluto, to ease our mind while on vacation. We missed him so much, but felt as though Pluto was very welcomed & cared for. Pluto had a blast with Rebeca’s dog, Nico, and enjoyed their daily walks and visits to the dog park. We are very grateful for Rebeca & Nico ☺️”
“Samantha was fantastic! She took great care of our dog and even went the extra mile when I had to change our reservation due to a family illness. She was kind enough to offer to bring our dog home for us. I will not hesitate to use her services again.”
“Harley and Hazel were so well cared for! We appreciate having a place for them to stay at while we are away where we know we don’t have to worry. They had fun playing with the other dogs.”
About: I grew up with 3 border collies in my home, so I’ve been helping with pet care for as long as I can remember. My husband and I adopted Penny, our sweet Australian Shepherd, two years ago and we have loved every second. I have never met a dog I didn’t love. I have often been told I have a knack for comforting anxious dogs. I work from home, so my schedule is fairly flexible during work hours. I often take my dog on a walk before work and in the evening after work. I’m flexible to leave work as needed and take dogs out as often as needed. I have a friendly Australian Shepherd who loves to play to keep your dog(s) company. My fur baby no longer uses her crate, so we have a crate that can be used for your dog when they visit if they like it. My husband is home in the evening after work to help with pet care.
“Took amazing care of my dog! Their dogs are very friendly and helped bring my dog out of her shell. I would absolutely have them watch my dog again in the future!”
“Pamela was amazing! She made leaving our two dogs with her super easy! I was nervous since we had never boarded our dogs before. When we went to her home I felt so much relief. You can feel the love she has for dogs and knowing her kids were going to be there to love on our dogs was so amazing! She sent regular updates and photos that were super reassuring (one photo showed our dog snuggled up with her son and it absolutely melted my heart). She assured me that her kids had good boundaries with dogs so if yours aren't as cuddly as my two gentle giants than no worries. My dogs came home happy, cleaner than they left, and super happy! They were tuckered out so it was clear they had been exercised. It was the best experience and I will definitely user her again and would recommend her to anyone! Thank you Pamela for making this new experience so much easier!”
“Really felt comfortable leaving our old boy Bentley, with Marissa. I was a bit concerned at first because Marissa has a dog and three cats of her own. As an older dog, Bentley prefers to sleep and pretty much, just be left alone, but the animals got along just fine. I could instantly tell at our introduction meeting that Marissa is an animal lover with a very kind heart. While we were away, Marissa took pictures of the dogs interacting and taking walks ... apparently, many walks ... and sending them to me regularly. Upon return, when I picked Bentley up, Marissa said "I thought you said that Bentley was kind of lay-back and just wanted to sleep. But, he was the first one up waiting to go outside to play and explore". I really appreciate the great job Marissa did with Bentley during our nine-day trip. I had such peace of mind that our dog was being loved and cared for. I would VERY MUCH like to use Marissa's boarding services again, next time we travel.”
