“Crystal and Michael provided incredible care for our sweet Suzy, a 7 month old puppy who requires extra supervision. The whole family was involved with her care and they were attentive, patient, and loving. Crystal was responsive and friendly and clearly a knowledgeable dog lover and we felt confident that Suzy was in good hands. Suzy was happy, healthy, and well-looked after when we returned."”
“Kym is awesome and my dog had the best time! I felt so comfortable leaving him in Kym’s care while I was gone and loved the pics she sent. Five stars all the way !!!”
“Leslie was so super great with our boy Dota. She and her dogs just loved him so much and had a great time playing. We would recommend Leslie to anyone.”
“So appreciate Justin's care for Lucas for 5 nights. It's obvious he loves dogs, and wants to make sure they are comfortable and happy, which helped us enjoy the time away more. Justin was a great communicator and sent us regular photos and reports while Lucas was with him. We would recommend him as a good and reliable dog sitter. Thanks, Justin!”
“Eileen and Jeff took great care of my shy dog. Opie seemed comfortable and happy staying with them, and they sent photos regularly so I could see for myself. Communication was clear and easy; overall a great experience.”
“Amanda provides the perfect boarding experience for Penny: being a somewhat timid dog, Penny appreciates being the only dog being hosted. Penny is always happy to go to and see Amanda, and explore the huge fenced back yard. We appreciate Amanda’s updates and great understanding of Penny. Thank you Amanda!🥰”
“I’m so thankful for Zachary and his wife! Our Luna has been a bit depressed since her stroke a few years ago but after coming home from doggy daycare with them she way spunky, happy, and is even spending more time outside with a smile whereas it was difficult to get her to enjoy much time outside before as she would want to go back into the house or wouldn’t leave the back porch much. I’m so happy to see her rolling in the dirt and playing now. This means the world!!! She requires a lot of care and they did an excellent job even wrapping her foot really well and keeping it protected. We will definitely be going back and I look forward to her having another fun visit in the future. Thank you both so much and we will see you soon!”
“My senior girl loved Janiel's place. Beautiful yard, ball throwing, and Janiel made sure to keep me updated with pics. So glad I found such a great place for Scout. She tells me she hopes to visit again.”
“Simply amazing! We had an extremely last minute booking as we had to leave town unexpectedly (like only a few hours notice). Abigail happily took sawyer and i knew he would be so well cared for. She even was flexible when our trip got extended a bit (so sorry Abigail!!) Sent lots of pics and updates and i know Sawyer was so happy. 100000% book with abigail!”
“Our pup had an amazing stay! We got multiple updates, with photos, every day. May took our boy on walks every day and I am not sure he will want to come home after all the fun adventures he had! We will definitely use May again!”
“Carley was a good sitter for our energetic puppy. She and her dogs knew what to do with all of his energy. We left him there for a week and didn’t worry about him.”
“I always feel comfortable leaving Zuko when I go on trips. They are amazing with updates and I can tell they genuinely care and enjoy watching him! Thank you guys again!”
“I am very happy with my experience! My dog stayed 2 nights with Heather, where I received many pictures and updates on how things were going. All was positive and seemed like a great time! Would book again!”
“Our dogs had a great weekend with Georgia and her pet family. She sent us photos and videos of our dogs throughout their stay. We will definitely use Georgia again for our pet needs. Thank you!”
“Ace had an amazing time as always! We received TONS of pictures and videos during his stay. Sophia is incredible at keeping us updated and always makes sure he has more than enough attention and play time! ◡̈”
“We dropped off Ziggy for the weekend after a visit to the vet where we left with four medications, a cone and a bloody paw. Philip didn't flinch. (He was two minutes from where I was visiting my mom, so we could have been there if anything had come up.) We didn't get a lot of updates, but we came back to a dog who seemed happy, and better yet, hadn't been chewing on his paw. Highly recommend.”
“Cheryl took amazing care of my two dogs while I was out of town. They stayed at her place and she sent daily updates and photos of them. They seemed very happy and relaxed while there. :) I would definitely use her services again in the future.”
“Here’s a warm, concise Rover review: We had a great experience! She was so sweet and caring with Cocopuff and was very flexible with our travel schedule. We even forgot to pack his food, and she was incredibly accommodating and made everything easy. We felt he was in great hands and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”

“Jessica takes care of Mia very well when I was out for vacation. She will update when she is about to come and send pictures of Mia. Will book again since she lives in the same neighborhood”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I love all animals and treat them all as if they were my own! I currently do not work-so my schedule is wide open and flexible to take care of all of your pets needs. I am open to walking, dog sitting and more! I have a dog to keep your fur baby company of staying in my home. I do not have a fenced yard but like to go for walks, and in park adventures.
“Joy is a wonderful pet sitter!!! I was gone for 10 days and she sat with my cat. She not only sat with my cat she washed the towels and bedding that she used!!! Not something I’m used to in a cat sitter. She was also very informative!! I’d use her again!!!”
“Ashton and Shelby are responsible, caring and conscientious. They are great at communicating, and showed flexibility when I had a need for an extra visit. Knowing that they were truly caring for my animals helped me have the peace of mind needed to relax and enjoy my trip. I highly recommend them and will not hesitate to hire them again. My cats, rabbits, fish and plants were all well-looked after and I really enjoyed all the photos and updates!”
About: Hello! May name is Emma Brown and I work in the outdoor field hoping to work with wildlife in the future. Ever since I was young, I’ve had cats in some area of my life. Either when I visited my Aunt’s house, as one of our neighbors outdoor cats, or when I started cat sitting. I have always made it my priority to understand each pet owners request and stick to that schedule. Prioritizing each cat’s safety and health has always been my biggest strength as well. This is what I love to do and I can’t wait to get to know your pets!
“Lori was amazing. We were out of state dealing with a death in the family and all the emotions that come with that. The last thing we needed was to also be worried about our kitty Heisenberg while we were gone. Lori came each day to care for him and she went above and beyond. Not only did she take care of our kitty, she genuinely cared about his well-being. She also was so kind to water our flowers that we’re looking deprived and brought in our mail. Lori was wonderful!”
About: I have a deep love and appreciation for my fuzzy little friends and all that they have taught me. I have learned everything I can to support my own pets and maybe even yours! I know how to perform CPR on both cats and dogs. I am comfortable following care plans for senior pets. Trained to provide subcutaneous fluids to kitties. I am currently available Monday - Thursday, barring the occasional appointments. I work long hours over the weekends so I am unfortunately not available at all Friday - Sunday I am a big believer in routine, as I know my fur babies definitely have and prefer theirs. I am happy to stick as close to their normal routine as possible.
“Suzy was an exceptional kitten sitter. During her week-long stay at our home, she maintained everything and left our home just as she found it. I loved receiving the daily updates and photos of Lila while we were away. Upon returning, we found a happy and healthy kitten, thanks to Suzy's attentive care. Without a doubt, she will be our go-to sitter in the future! 😺”
“Leah watched my cat who has complex medical issues on short notice after another rover sitter canceled last minute. This was my first time using Rover and I was very nervous leaving my cat, but Leah did a wonderful job! She was able to get him comfortable with her almost immediately, which was genuinely shocking because he is very shy and wary of strangers. She was also able to come twice a day to provide him his meds. Leah was reliable, sent detailed updates, and went above and beyond to make him as comfortable as possible while we were away. I would highly recommend her, and plan to use her as a pet sitter again in the future!”
About: Hello! My name is Patricia and I have been caring for pets for over twenty years; therefore I passionately understand the importance of proper care for the kitties in your family. I focus on curating experiences for each pet, based on their individual needs. I am professional, reliable and have additional references to provide, if desired! I am a very active individual, usually covering 15 miles per day. I am centrally located in Spokane, and am willing to travel to you! I would be honored to give your pets a safe, fun and dependable experience while they are in my care.
About: My first job was a at a doggy daycare/ boarding facility but I have been pet sitting since I was 12. I’ve worked with puppies all the way through seniors receiving cancer treatment. I have a playful golden retriever who adores all animals big and small. I have experience bathing and giving insulin to cats too. I volunteered at a rescue ranch for a number of years and have experience with livestock. I personally have ducks, chickens, reptiles and a senior cat as companions for my golden. I am currently working 3 days a week for a tax office and am unavailable from January to April. On my off days I hike and take my golden to the river. I have a contract that I have been using since 2010 that outlines my safety procedures. When I am in a clients home I always have them review it and do a walk around of the home with them. From my years at doggy daycare I am pretty familiar with certain breed characteristics like the awesome heights husky’s can jump or the tunneling ability of a weenie. I also am very understanding about separation anxiety as someone who has worked at rescues. For walks I require a harness or collar the dog cannot slip out of. I require an in person meeting beforehand, if doggy play dates with my dog are requested we must meet on neutral ground first to see how they interact.

“Georgia’s home was a fantastic home for my dog to have fun and be safe in! He played well with her dogs and was super easy to communicate with! Will definitely be boarding with her more often!”
About: I’m from the Seattle area and I’ve been with Rover since 2018. In 2020 I got married to Micaiah my husband. When we married we added an additional cat to the family that belonged to him. So we have 4 cats. Before Rover I volunteered at PetsMart with Purrfect pals. One day a week I would help with cleaning, playing, and as a team member I helped cats find a furrrever home. My first cat in my life was when I was 8. I have always enjoyed pets and nature. So I decided to combine walking and dogs. Walks in the park or just around the block. I’m looking to be your new regular dog walker. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your pets!! I’m also a very detail and observant person so walks, sittings, and daycare services would also have a description of how your pet is doing. I chart any different behavior or eating habits along with health concerns. Updates with photos would be a priority. I'd also ask for the dog's vet info and emergency contacts. Have a paw-some day! My schedule is flexible. I usually find clients prefer weekday schedule M-F routine for walks. This is my full time job! My time is your time! I’m very safety cautious. I will keep updates and photos on the pet regularly during the day. I also request the pet’s medical information and their vet clinic. I’m pretty flexiable with scheduling. I try my best to fit in the schedule my clients want for their pets. Only days I need off for two hours are Sunday and Thursday. For security and safety I please ask for NO GUNS OR SUBSTANCES in house. I want to feel safe in the environment same goes for your pets. Thanks! I’m making this a full time job. M-F. I’m flexible with the scheduling. I’m open to picking up and dropping off clients dogs. Dogs will have one of us home with them. I have a fenced yard and five cats. I rescued two which are a mom and her kitten. My three cats are fun to spend my day with as well. I have a senior cat that needs daily meds and I try all I can to keep them happy and healthy.
“We are from Seattle area so of course finding a sitter for our two dogs was a little hard for us. After going through many suggestions and profiles we found Justin. When we showed up to his place he took the time to get to know the dogs and showed us where they would be and his yard. They immediately took to him and couldn’t be happier. He wore out two high energy silver labs and sent us updates of how they were doing. Even on the second day when we dropped them off instead of chasing a squirrel they instantly went to Justin for another fun day. If you are ever in the area and need a sitter we definitely recommend Justin to take care of your fur babies and keep them happy.”
“David put my mind at ease from the get go. It was the first time I’ve ever left my dog. My mind was at ease knowing she was in good hands! Thank you David and Jennifer.”
About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life from dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and I’ve had experience with goats, sheep, cows, geese, ducks, exc. I helped someone who had dogs that had puppies and that was challenging but an amazing experience. I’ve got lots of love and experience with all different dog breeds & temperaments. I currently have dogs, cats, chickens, and geese of my own! I am currently a stay at home parent to two kiddos. One is in school so most of my days are free. Tuesdays & Thursdays late afternoon/evening are blocked out as we have a prior commitment of gymnastics. I have a fenced yard at home but I do live in the woods and have some bit of land that is not immediately fenced off. I always keep a close watch on my pets daytime or nighttime and I would do the same for yours if they were at my home. I would follow the pet owners lead and what they feel is best for their pets at their own home and do my best to go above & beyond meeting the fur baby needs/owners needs.
“Teri did an exceptional job watching our dog, Rocket, for the day. She helped Rocket to feel comfortable with her home and backyard before slowly introducing her dogs. Once they were introduced they quickly became friends and had a great time playing together. Teri made sure to provide us with frequent pictures and updates, which gave us peace of mind knowing that our dog was being well taken care of. Her communication with us was always professional and we are happy to have chosen her to watch our dog and will definitely choose her in the future when we are in the area.”
“Hannah did a great job with our dog Teddy. Teddy was was a little nervous when we first arrived but Hannah helped him to get settled in quickly. She sent us lots of photos and kept us updated on how he was doing.”

“Stitch loves spending time with Abigail and her family. So much so that he is in no hurry to leave when I pick him up. It makes me a little jealous but at the same time let’s me know that he enjoys his time with Abigail.”
About: I love animals of all kinds and am happy to take care for your pets. Your dogs and cats will be loved and cared for like they’re my own. I know the area well and my neighborhood is very dog friendly and safe for walking. I have experience taking care of animals with anxiety and that are recovering from surgery. Thank you for trusting me with your pets, Please let me know any special requests or needs you have for your animals or home. Currently on a job search so I’m not sure of my daily schedule in the future, but I won’t be working more than 8 hours at a time and most likely only 30 hours a week. For house sitting and boarding, I will at home as much as possible, with the exception of running necessary errands. I’ll do my best to keep your pet happy and comfortable, and stick to your pets routines i.e. walks, play time, feeding time etc. (I sometimes board more than one dog at a time but only with your express permission of both owners)
“Mimi and her family took such wonderful care of our Velzy girl! From the moment we met I felt at ease and so did our pup. Velzy had the best time with Chester and they got along great!Lovely home with the best backyard. We will MOST DEFINITELY be booking again and again and again. Highly recommended! Thank you Mimi + fam!!! 🧡”
“Our pup stayed overnight and had a great time! We received photos, videos and updates on our doggo throughout the day. When we dropped him off he was excited & upon picking him up he was playing. We will be back!”
“This was my first experience with dog day care and Cheryl did an amazing job with my pup. She kept me posted on how he was doing thru the day and I felt very comfortable leaving him there. I was very impressed and would highly recommend.”
About: I owned and operated my own dog boarding and hiking business from 2017-2025 called Happy Tails On Trails, caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, personalities, and energy levels. I regularly cared for multiple dogs at once and led group hikes, giving me plenty of experience managing different personalities and energy levels while keeping everyone safe, happy, and well exercised. Running my own business also taught me how important communication and trust are when caring for someone else's pet. I got to know each dog individually, communicate closely with their owners, and make sure their needs were met while they were in my care. I eventually closed my business after having my daughter and moving to the Valley, but my love for dogs and years of experience caring for them have never gone away. I'm excited to continue doing what I love by providing dogs with a safe, active, and loving home away from home! 🐾 My schedule is flexible, and I am home much of the day, allowing me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship. Typical Doggy Day Care Schedule: 🕕 6:00–8:00 AM — Daycare drop-off & settle in 🥾 9:00 AM–12:00 PM — Walk/hike, approximately 3–5 miles 💤 12:00–2:00 PM — Rest, water & downtime 🌿 2:00–3:00 PM — Potty break & supervised outdoor time 🐾 3:00–5:00 PM — Outdoor play, potty breaks & relaxation 🏡 By 6:00 PM — Daycare pickup The schedule may vary depending on weather, the dogs in my care, and the length of our morning adventure. I adjust activity based on each dog's age, energy level, and individual needs. My goal is for every dog to go home happy, well exercised, and ready for a good nap! 🐾 My home is a comfortable, family oriented environment where dogs can relax, receive plenty of attention, and be part of our daily routine. I supervise dogs closely and take their individual temperament and needs seriously. Because we have chickens on our property, safety around poultry is especially important to me. I will need to know upfront, so I can keep them in the run if needed. I believe communication is a big part of good pet care. I want you to feel comfortable knowing how your dog is doing while you're away, and I'm happy to send updates and photos so you don't feel like you're missing out on everything they're doing!
“Wow! I am so happy for my pups that they got to spend their day with Patricia while I was at a wedding. It was such a good day for them. They got to play, run, wrestle, go to dog park 2x, sleep, eat, wake-up and do it all again, and again. Patricia also took 20 pictures for me to see them throughout the day. I’m also happy she got to be with them. I look forward to when they can spend their day with her again. Thank-you soooo much! 🙂Kari”
About: I have experience in dogs when it comes to what they can and can't eat. I have experience when it comes to medicine And a lots more. I know to be cautious around other dogs and people. I know not to let them chew on things they shouldn't chew on. I know not to let the eat things off the ground. I know to let them warm up to you first so they aren't scared of you or aggressive to you. I know that they gotta go outside very often so they can use the restroom and play and run off some energy I also know that dogs love toys to play with and even when we play with them and show them love and attention.
“We left Jack with Haley & Audriana while visiting from out of town. He had a wonderful time! The house is nice and in a nice neighborhood with a comfortable, fenced back yard that offered shade on a hot day. We will definitely look them up when we come into town next time!”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have always been the person friends and family trust to care for their pets. I have a Havanese named Pita who is my little adventure buddy. He’s 6 years old, about 16 lbs, and is a very friendly little guy who loves being around other dogs. I work from home, so your pup will have plenty of company, attention, and won’t be left alone during the day. I live in a clean, tidy apartment right off the Centennial Trail, so we love getting outside for walks and fresh air. Whether your dog loves adventures, playtime, or just relaxing and cuddling, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved like they’re part of the family while you’re away. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine. Your pup will have plenty of company, attention, potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. Pita and I already enjoy daily walks on the Centennial Trail, relaxing at home, and getting outside whenever we can, so your dog will be included like part of our normal day. I want every dog to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re with me. I live in a clean, tidy apartment and always make sure pets are cared for in a calm and safe environment. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether they want to play, go for walks, cuddle, or just relax, I’ll make sure they get the care and attention they need.

About: - Grew up in the country surrounded by dogs, cats, reptiles, chickens, and other farm animals my whole life. - I’ve house sitted for family friends dogs and plants - I highly prioritize communication and safety on both sides I’m very available at the moment as I just graduated. I am happy both to set up a reoccurring service or stay flexible from week to week over the summer. I can’t keep animals in my apartment, but I am physically and mentally capable of the challenges regarding pets like crates, leashes, exercise/play, differences in personalities, and minor discipline if wanted.
About: As someone who works online, my hours are completely flexible and can be done most anywhere. I use this to my advantage as a pet-lover. It means I get to be surrounded by pets as much as I can, and as someone who cannot have their own dog, I cannot express how fulfilling and heartening it is for me to do so. I have also pet-sit for friends and family all my life. I truly love animals. I go in with this mindset: how would I want others to treat my home-space and my own pet? My aim is that you can travel with a peaceful certainty your pet will be showered with love and attention, and you don't have to worry. I genuinely love animals, and as an introvert, I spend most of my free time with them whenever I can. My schedule is very flexible. I make my own hours with my online work, and I am usually available for sitting anytime. My summer sitting schedule is open, and as a newbie to this site, I'm looking forward to doing a really good job at a reasonable starting rate. (So far I've had a great experience). I am responsible and extremely mindful of people's plans and expectations. I try to be as professional as I can, returning messages as soon as possible. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me and feel free to ask me any questions you may have. I am a creative arts teacher (working online) and I hail from Central Oregon. I have an MA in Myth and Psych, and I really like to travel and learn new things. platform. Animals are by-far my favorite thing, on par with painting and writing. My main passion is painting. I love experimenting with acrylic on canvas and I am trying to teach myself watercolor. I’m introverted and love to read and write. Animals, especially dogs, have my whole heart. I have always wanted a pet, but my love of travel has held me back. When not traveling, I'm a homebody. (In short, I’d probably prefer to hang out with your pet, rather than go out on the town..) I like to be cozy with books, tea, and walks in nature. I have a car, and I am flexible with my schedule. I want to accomadate the sensitivities and special needs of any household and/or pets, and I welcome anyway I can to make you feel more comfortable with me as your pet-trustee. Thanks so much for your time! At the moment, I do not care for pets in my own home. But if I get the opportunity I would put just as much care and compassion in that as I do as a walker/sitter.
“Erica is a great dog walker! She is prompt and clear with all communication. She has a calm, quiet demenor, which allowed our dog to feel comfortable with her right away. We felt comfortable and confident leaving our pup in her care. You will not regret choosing Erica for all your pet care needs!”

About: *** I will be available only for Drop-in Visits through the Winter in Spokane and CDA starting November 1st. Hope to talk to you soon!**** I have been a housesitter and petsitter for years. I really enjoy getting to have new pet friends! I have taken care of all sorts of animals--dogs, cats, birds, lizards, hamsters, bunnies, horses, pigs, goats, chickens and even cows! I feel comfortable with pets who have medical issues, as well. I also have done a fair amount of pet massages for dogs and cats (not lizards, though!!) I have an online business, so I usually housesit and work part-time online. This makes it very easy for me to be in a home with pets who need more attention, or dogs that need walked often. I have done all levels of pet care-from simple one hour drop-in visits for cats to feeding and cleaning up for horses and cows (extra fee for that!!) So, I am very versatile with my clients! I also find that I bond easily with pets, and can often connect to shy or nervous cats and dogs by being present, calm and talking to them. I also know to leave someone alone when they just don't want to connect. I usually do lots of walks and playing together as well as simply sitting and petting and offering yummy treats!
“Joseph was wonderful! We gave him our rundown of our routine with Archie and he was very receptive and understanding. Joseph is knowledgable and great with our dog. We definitely recommend Joseph to anyone looking for a reliable companion for their pet needs!”
About: I have owned and loved on numerous dogs my entire life. I can never remember a time when I didn't have a tail waggin', face lickin', life long companion. No special skills here, just a heart that overflows for all dogs. I am a newly retired school district worker. My true passion has always been in taking care of animals. I don't really travel and what a better way to spend my days I have a huge fenced yard and a walking trail right behind my house that I use on a regular basis. Your furry friend will be allowed to roam wherever and sleeping on the furniture will never be a problem.
About: Every since I was a kid I have been around animals. My grandma had 3 dogs and that’s where my love for dogs started. My roommate has relied on me multiple times to take care of her cat. I also have a lot of experience watching dogs for friends and family. My goal is to make the dog feel happy and get some extra love. I work in healthcare with a job that allows me to create my own schedule depending on my clients. I will always make sure your pet is fit in my schedule. With having an open schedule allows me to spend more time with your fur baby! I currently live in an apartment with roommates and two cat, so unfortunately I will not be able to board the animals at my place. But I’m available for all the other options. Look forward to getting to know your and your pups or cats! :)
About: I am Suzy I grew up on a farm in a small town. I just retired from being a private hospice caregiver. I have experience with dogs, cats, cows, pigs, goats and horses. I have had my own dogs and cats and started helping more with pet sitting and dog walking for friends and family. I have an alternative medicine degree and it has helped me not only in my personal life but also with my animals lives. I am good with dogs and cats that have high energy and separation anxiety. I am loving being retired and building my pet sitting business that revolves around cuddles with cats and dogs. I started doing this because I have 3 grand pups and 1 grand cat along with 1 human grand daughter and it has brought me peace and happiness. I was lost on what I wanted to do with this part of my life. I immensely enjoy pet sitting and meeting new pet owners and pets. I am not in a position to have pets at my home. However in your home I am there to help your animal not feel alone by giving them the attention they need or what you have requested.
About: Hello! My name is Emma Brown and I work in the outdoor field hoping to work with wildlife in the future. I have always had dogs in my household growing up. Ever since I was young, I made it my job to teach my dogs tricks, make sure they don’t get into trouble, and give them the best home. At one point, my childhood dog had a litter of 11 chocolate lab puppies. I helped to raise them up all the way until they left for their new homes. I also watched other people’s dogs growing up. I have always made it my priority to understand each pet owners request and stick to that schedule. Prioritizing each dog’s safety and health has always been my biggest strength as well. This is what I love to do and I can’t wait to get to know your pets! I’m currently in between jobs right now and will have a lot of time to be with your pets. Depending on what you ask, I can take out your pets on walks, to be let out, or to just be around however long you may ask for. Just let me know what schedule you’d like me to fit into. I unfortunately can’t house your dog in my home. I can pet and house sit to make sure to keep their schedule as normal as possible. I always try my best to prioritize their safety and health, so only giving them their own food and treats is how I do so. I don’t feed my own pets my extra food scraps so don’t worry about that. Once you let me know of their schedule, I’ll follow it to the best of my ability. I would also love to know their mannerisms and quirks so I can best approach them and their care.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs ever since I was 10 and I absolutely love walking dogs with my son he loves them so much! I’m a stay at home mom with my almost 2 year old so I’m free anytime for what you need. Even if it’s just to play with your fur babies! Your fur babies safety is a big priority for me so I will fallow all your rules and requirements to a T. I’m a very organized person so if you have a list of needs I’ll make sure to do it all.
About: I have a deep love and appreciation for my fuzzy little friends and all that they have taught me. I have learned everything I can to support my own pets and maybe even yours! I know how to perform CPR on both cats and dogs. I am comfortable following care plans for senior pets. Trained to provide subcutaneous fluids to kitties. I am currently available Monday - Thursday, barring the occasional appointments. I work long hours over the weekends so I am unfortunately not available at all Friday - Sunday I am a big believer in routine, as I know my fur babies definitely have and prefer theirs. I am happy to stick as close to their normal routine as possible.
About: I’ve been hired to groom a good handful of dogs and a cat! I’ve lived with black Labs mostly but dogs of all sizes my whole life including senior-blind/diabetic-neglected-and puppies and love teaching basic tricks and catering to loves and dislikes to keep animals as comfortable and safe with me as possible! Currently I work from 2-10pm but am looking to do more independent gigs to open up more opportunities for clients on rover and to do school! I have 2 cats named maraschino and cherry and a large fenced back yard where my mom had previously over night done sitting through rover

“Crystal and Michael provided incredible care for our sweet Suzy, a 7 month old puppy who requires extra supervision. The whole family was involved with her care and they were attentive, patient, and loving. Crystal was responsive and friendly and clearly a knowledgeable dog lover and we felt confident that Suzy was in good hands. Suzy was happy, healthy, and well-looked after when we returned."”
“Leslie was so super great with our boy Dota. She and her dogs just loved him so much and had a great time playing. We would recommend Leslie to anyone.”
“So appreciate Justin's care for Lucas for 5 nights. It's obvious he loves dogs, and wants to make sure they are comfortable and happy, which helped us enjoy the time away more. Justin was a great communicator and sent us regular photos and reports while Lucas was with him. We would recommend him as a good and reliable dog sitter. Thanks, Justin!”
“I’m so thankful for Zachary and his wife! Our Luna has been a bit depressed since her stroke a few years ago but after coming home from doggy daycare with them she way spunky, happy, and is even spending more time outside with a smile whereas it was difficult to get her to enjoy much time outside before as she would want to go back into the house or wouldn’t leave the back porch much. I’m so happy to see her rolling in the dirt and playing now. This means the world!!! She requires a lot of care and they did an excellent job even wrapping her foot really well and keeping it protected. We will definitely be going back and I look forward to her having another fun visit in the future. Thank you both so much and we will see you soon!”
“My senior girl loved Janiel's place. Beautiful yard, ball throwing, and Janiel made sure to keep me updated with pics. So glad I found such a great place for Scout. She tells me she hopes to visit again.”
“Our pup had an amazing stay! We got multiple updates, with photos, every day. May took our boy on walks every day and I am not sure he will want to come home after all the fun adventures he had! We will definitely use May again!”
“Carley was a good sitter for our energetic puppy. She and her dogs knew what to do with all of his energy. We left him there for a week and didn’t worry about him.”
“I am very happy with my experience! My dog stayed 2 nights with Heather, where I received many pictures and updates on how things were going. All was positive and seemed like a great time! Would book again!”
“Our dogs had a great weekend with Georgia and her pet family. She sent us photos and videos of our dogs throughout their stay. We will definitely use Georgia again for our pet needs. Thank you!”
“We dropped off Ziggy for the weekend after a visit to the vet where we left with four medications, a cone and a bloody paw. Philip didn't flinch. (He was two minutes from where I was visiting my mom, so we could have been there if anything had come up.) We didn't get a lot of updates, but we came back to a dog who seemed happy, and better yet, hadn't been chewing on his paw. Highly recommend.”
“Cheryl took amazing care of my two dogs while I was out of town. They stayed at her place and she sent daily updates and photos of them. They seemed very happy and relaxed while there. :) I would definitely use her services again in the future.”
“Here’s a warm, concise Rover review: We had a great experience! She was so sweet and caring with Cocopuff and was very flexible with our travel schedule. We even forgot to pack his food, and she was incredibly accommodating and made everything easy. We felt he was in great hands and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Our dogs come home tired (thank you 😂) and happily spoiled every time they leave Teri’s, they are part of the family when they are there and it makes travel so much more enjoyable when you know your pups are being so well taken care of.”
“Kelly is wonderful! I always know our dog is in great hands when she’s with Kelly. I can tell Kelly loves her own dog, and treats our dog like family too. She is quick to communicate and sends photos daily while we’re away. I highly recommend Kelly!”
“Kara was excellent with our Golden Retriever, puppy. We were so lucky to have her take care of him. You could tell she truly cared about animals. She had a perfect place for our dog to stay with a great fenced in backyard. If we are in the area again we will contact Kara!”
“Megan is pretty much... amazing! Penny has found her second home with Megan and her family. I never worry for Penny and I always know she is having a great time going on lots of walks, playing frisbee, and being loved. I totally recommend using Megan for your next rover house!”
“Shaunett is the best. Our three fur babies lover her and her husband. They are so excited and content being in their home. Shaunett keeps me well informed and sends plenty of pics while they are in her care.”
“Hannah was fantastic. She sent photos everyday (multiple). She seemed to care for our pups like they were here own. It’s been two days and our pups are still recovering (lots of naps) from all the fun they had.”
