About: I am new to Rover, but have worked in the Animal Health Industry as a Veterinarian Technician (animal nurse) and outside sales/customer service for the past 30+ years. Along with the background check Rover provides, I also have a Business License and I am Insured/Bonded. Animal care is my only business/job. I have experience with most animals from reptiles to cattle and currently have a little 5 acre hobby farm with a horse, goats, chickens, dog and cat. I am very flexible with days you need pet care. My days are filled with animal care of my own/yours, walking/hiking, gardening and home/property projects. Your pets will be treated with great care while spending time with me. I have a gated 5 acre hobby farm with 1/2 acre fully fenced area around my home. My farm animals are fenced in separately for safety. I also have 3 acres of wooded trails/not fenced for leash walking. I am able to provide care and exercise depending on your pets needs and will only accept dogs that are not aggressive towards people or other dogs for a positive/fun experience. I have giant wire crates/bedding for night sleeping/feeding and can take up to 3 dogs. I would prefer same family, but may be some overlap with scheduling. Otherwise they will be spending time with me in my home and on my property. There are two large porches for either sunning or shade. I also have air conditioning. Please be up to date on vaccinations (including kennel cough), worming and monthly flea control. I live in a quiet/peaceful valley. Please no excessive barkers and bring their food, treats and special toys. If you have an older/well trained dog that would be happy sleeping in a dog bed at night, I can be accommodating. Especially, if I have no other dogs boarding here. Must have been crate trained at some point in their life. Waking up in the am to an intact couch is nice! 😊 Please allow enough time for a 1st time meet and greet prior to finalizing the booking. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family!
“We are completely satisfied at the care our dog received from Tiffany. We received lots of photos and updates through the week he was there. He got his own little get away while we took our trip. We 100% would use her again and highly recommend.”
“Our Lab Tango had a great time staying with Bethany for a week while we were on vacation! This was our first time using Rover and are both very happy with the experience. She was very accommodating with our schedule since we missed our flight connection coming home. She sent us photos every day as an update and Tango came home very tired from all the exercise he got. We will definitely use her services again and are happy to have a place we can trust while we leave for vacations. ”
“Heather is outstanding. She's a great communicator. Orville loved her. She's obviously a dog expert and even taught me things about Orville I didn't know. She gave him individualized attention even with multiple dogs in her care. She sent a picture of him. Highly recommended. Orville and I found our go to boarding.”
“Kevin took excellent care of our pups! He was very communicative, provided lots of pics and videos, and made sure they were safe and taken care of. It's clear he treated them like his own. We highly recommend him for your dog care!”
“We booked with Kat after another local boarder cancelled last minute. I'm happy that she did. Mochi was extremely happy with his stay at Kat's! He had a great time making new friends, running and playing in the large yard. Kat kept us updated daily with photos or video. She also had an extra dogloo for him to sleep in (since it was a bit cold). On our next vacation, we'll definitely bring Mochi back to stay with Kat again.”
“People say they love animals, but not everyone truly does! I believe Kimberly truly loves animals. I feel she treated my puppies like they were hers. I am fairly new to leaving my girls with a sitter, Kimberly put my mind at ease. She sent a lot of updates and pictures, which I really appreciated. I will have Kimberly watch Thelma and Louise anytime I need a sitter again.”
About: I have cared for, trained and enjoyed dogs since I was 2 years old. I helped raise and train 3 guide dogs for the blind as a middle schooler/high schooler. Recently our beloved family dog of 9 years passed away. Our 2 year old German Shepard/Blue heeler mix, Nikita, would love to keep your dog company while you are away. Our property has plenty of space to run and play. I am a full-time mom of 4 school aged kids who love dogs. I am around to care and love on your pup during Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays as well as weekends with limited time unattended. I do work part-time on Mondays and Thursdays. I have a small fenced backyard and a very large unfenced property to provide care for your pup. My dog, Nikita, is friendly and would love to meet new friends. I have space for a crate indoors if you would like to bring your own. I also have outdoor crates if you'd like your pup to have fresh air during short times we're away. Nikita normally hangs on the couch inside while I am not home and your dog is welcome to join her =)
“Connie did a super job of looking after our Stinky! She often sent photos and a video, keeping us posted on how he was doing. He made a special friend and looks like he had a great time! I’d highly recommend Connie to anyone looking for a sitter!”
About: Hi, I'm Wayne-Your Dog’s New Favorite Human! With years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels, I provide loving, reliable, and personalized care while you're away. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or just cozy companionship, I treat every pup like family. I’m fully insured, attentive to special needs, and always happy to send updates and pics to keep you connected. Let’s make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved — even when you’re not home! I’m unable to have a dog of my own right now due to my work schedule. I would prefer sitting on weekends.

In my home, I provide a safe, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space to play, rest, and feel comfortable. I follow their feeding and exercise schedule closely and ensure they get plenty of attention, affection, and mental stimulation. When caring for pets in their own home, I maintain their regular routine as closely as possible — from mealtimes and walks to medication and cuddle time. I keep the home tidy, respect their space, and provide regular updates so you always know your pet is happy and in good hands.

About: I grew up with pets and have been a pet owner most of my life. We recently had to say goodbye to our Boston terrier due to cancer, and I’m missing having a furry friend to hang out with at home. I work from home 6 AM to 2:30 PM Monday through Thursday and have two 15 minute breaks and a half an hour break during that time. I also have flexibility throughout the day. We have a nice comfortable home and a very walkable neighborhood. I enjoy walking down to the South Bend waterfront, which is only a couple blocks from our house.

“Our normal cat sitter was having a new baby while we were going out of town, so we had to find someone new. I found Rebecca after another sitter that I had lined up backed out and I was so glad I did. She did a great job! I also cat sit for Rover, and Rebecca gave the wonderful care that I always try to give my own clients. We appreciated the notes, and pictures from each day that she visited. My kids were upset about leaving their 3 kittens for so long, but they felt better seeing that they were in great hands with Rebecca. I will definitely use Rebecca again and recommend to others families with cats.”

“Kyndra was amazing with my dogs Archie and Rev! She was super responsive and accommodating to everything with my schedule this weekend and I am so grateful she was able to help out with my pups. She always responded to me so quickly to let me know how they were doing and I had to pick them up later than I anticipated and it was no problem at all for her. Thank you so much Kyndra for taking care of my pups like they are your own! I will definitely rebook the next time I am in town 🙂”

I am open to caring for pets every day of the week, Monday to Sunday from daytime to overnight needs. I am a writer and creative and this would be my main job other than those duties which I would balance efficiently. At my home, I have two separate units. I have a main house and a studio next door, along with two fenced in backyards. I am near the Hoquiam town hall nearby the town which is perfect for long walks.
