“Mary does a great job caring for our dog, Baxter. Bax does not like every dog he meets, cannot be with cats, and cannot be with small kids. Mary's house is perfect for him. Mary sends us many pictures of Bax when we are away. She takes care of Bax like he is her own dog. Bax has a pill that he takes everyday, and Mary makes sure that he gets it. She is very flexible with drop off/pick up times too. Baxter is going to stay at Mary's house often!”
“Cheryl and Josh were great with our dog, Goldie. She got a lot of walks and we know she got a lot of attention and love. She came home exhausted. 😅 We will definitely trust Cheryl and Josh again for future dog watching!”
“Karen and Chris were great with our cat! He can be a bit annoying looking for attention but they were patient and he was spoiled and well cared for. Looking forward to booking with them again.”
“Brittni & family were the best dog family we could ever ask for! Luna got along great with their dogs and kids. Brittni sent pictures of Luna with the family and out on walks. Highly recommend!”
“Ryan watched my pyranese/German shepard mix Gallagher for a long weekend. It was the first time Gallagher was ever away from me for even one night. Ryan was quick to respond to messages. He sent updates and pictures. When I picked up my dog, I was returned the same happy dog that I left in Ryan's care. I will definitely be a returning customer!”
“Percy had an amazing stay! I can tell he felt right at home and loved by Lisa and her beautiful family. I felt at ease being able to enjoy my trip knowing our fur baby was well taken care of. Lisa provided sweet pictures and kept us posted on Percy's behaviors! Thank you so much!”
“Would definitely recommend Amanda as a sitter! Easy communication, easy to book, I appreciated the couple check ins during my dog’s stay! My dog came back looking well taken care of, happy, and tired from her exercise! Will definitely be using Amanda again!”
“Diane and Dale went above and beyond to accommodate our schedule and care for Oliver. He fit right in with their dog, Lexi, enjoyed the walks around the pond and was well-loved. I highly recommend them!”
“Cari and her family did a wonderful job taking care of Russell. He got lots of walks, plenty of play time, and tons of snuggles. He especially liked playing with the girls. Will definitely use her again.”
“My dog had a wonderful time at this house and I received many pictures of her having fun. The family was also accommodating to our needs when we had some trouble getting back at the time we predicted.”
About: Hi! My name is Ryaan, and I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life. Animals have always been a huge part of my family, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I also worked for several years at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, where I gained hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering basic care, supervising playtime, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Your pet will be treated like family in my care! 🐾 I currently have just a few 1 hour classes a week on just Mondays and Wednesdays and am home for the most part otherwise making me available for your pets. -fenced in yard -home frequently -able to provide long walks and lots of playtime -safe home (mostly pet proofed) -stairs are needed to be taken to get up to the house and down to the backyard

“Tammy was able to care for our cats with no issues. Weather was very hot when she cared for them and communicated with me about the temperature in the house and asked permission to open windows. Would definitely hire again.”
About: With around five years of hands-on experience in dog care, I’ve developed a deep understanding of how to give dogs the attention, patience, and love they deserve. For three years, I walked and sat for a dog every other day for elderly owners, which taught me how to connect with dogs of all temperaments and needs. In addition, I’ve raised my own Golden Doodle from 8 weeks old to 1.5 years. It wasn’t always easy, but through calmness, steady emotions, and consistent training, I’ve shaped her into the most loving, gentle, and sweet dog I know. I understand the importance of being gentle and patient, staying calm even in challenging situations, and creating a stress-free environment for dogs so they feel safe and comfortable. With me, your dog will get the best care possible, built on experience and a true passion for their well-being. As someone who manages an outdoor pool, my schedule is structured around peak hours, but I’ve found a perfect balance to incorporate pet care into my routine. I have flexibility during the early mornings, evenings, and off-peak hours, which allows me to give your dog the attention they deserve. Whether it’s taking them for walks, playing in the yard, or simply providing companionship, I make sure that pet care fits seamlessly into my day. My commitment to providing reliable and loving care never interferes with my responsibilities as a pool manager, as I’ve carefully arranged my schedule to meet both needs. Rest assured, your dog will receive the best of both worlds! When caring for your pet, whether in my home or yours, safety, trust, and environment are my top priorities. I always ensure a secure space, free from hazards, and follow all instructions regarding your dog’s routine, medications, and preferences to keep them comfortable and safe. I understand the trust you place in me, and I’m committed to building a strong relationship with your dog, treating them with the same love and care I would give my own. Whether in my home or yours, I create a calm and enjoyable environment, providing plenty of outdoor playtime and relaxation. My goal is to ensure your dog feels happy, secure, and loved, whether they’re in the comfort of their own home or mine. If they were to be at my home, they would get a very friendly play mate (my Goldendoodle 😊).
“First time using a pet sitter. Courtney was very sweet and friendly and easy to talk to. My kitty is older and I needed someone who could watch over him at the last minute. Courtney did a great job. Very good communication with her. I will definitely use her again. Thank you so much it eased my mind knowing you were watching over him”
About: Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable cat sitter who truly enjoys spending time with cats. I understand that every cat has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m happy to provide the love, attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. My goal is to make your cat feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.
“Emma dropped in on our two cats (one of which needed medication every 12 hrs) during our trip and was very communicative during the visits. She sent pictures every day and even cleaned everything up on the last visit. We will definitely use her again for our next trip.”
About: I have dreamed about walking dogs since I was a little girl and now I have found a way to do it and get paid! I have two Weiner dogs at my mom's house, a labordooddle at my dad's, and two cats of my own.I know and love all kinds of dogs and cats! I will care and treat them like they are my own so trust me they will get the best care ever! They may even get a little spoiled... But I can be strict if you have certain rules you want them to abide by! I have training. Please consider me when thinking about who can care for your furry children. I will give them the best care they deserve! I work part time and have a flexible schedule, so I can be available when needed. I have a car for easy transportation as well. My cats get supervised time outside on harnesses and time in the breezeway with open windows to get some fresh air. My neighborhood is good for taking dogs on walks and there is a wonderful dog park near by!
“Mya was absolutely wonderful! This was my first time using Rover and she went above and beyond any expectations! She cared for my animals so well and kept me updated which I greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend.”
About: Hi I'm Matt. I'm a big animal lover, and have been in the animal field for 15yrs working with all different types of wildlife. Have experience in giving vaccines(IM or SQ), oral meds, and basic care. I have since moved onto a new adventure in lawncare. I have been around dogs my entire life. I grew up with a German Shepherd, a purebred Samoyed, and a tabby cat. Currently, I have 2 beagle-shepherd mixes, Hunter and Holmes, who are 2 of the sweetest boys you will meet. We are often outdoors taking our daily walk, hiking local state parks, camping, or just working in the yard. I have always loved being around animals, especially dogs, and find that having them brings such happiness to life. The boys and I are together daily. I currently work typically Mondays thru Fridays sometimes varied or longer hours. However, we always make time to go for a walk daily, and on the weekends typically are out exploring. Hunter gets meds twice a day in a pill supplement as well as I trim their nails and baths occasionally. I currently rent a duplex that has a fenced backyard, and also have a spare bedroom and wire kennel if needed. Typically my dogs free roam during the day, and are good to be alone overnight or up to 10hrs which can allow me to spend time with your furry friend.
“We were so happy to find a petsitter with cat experience on a holiday weekend. Bella agreed to house & pet sit for us and she went out of her way to spend extra time with our two housecats for two daily visits, and was even able to spend two nights in spite of her busy schedule. The cats warmed up to her and she reported having bed-buddies for the nights she stayed over. I was pleased that she heeded my request to contact us about anything, big or small. Thank you Bella, for watching our kitties & household!!”
“Yolanda was wonderful. Very thorough. I wasn't afraid at all because I knew she'd be there to take care of KIDDEY! I would definitely suggest Rover to a friend and have them choose Yolanda”

About: I have over 10 years pet care experience, 7 of which I have been specifically focusing on dog training. Understanding the minds of dogs and how they think requires a degree of skill and patience, along with consistent application of training techniques. This knowledge of how dogs thinks, interact, and behave helps in every aspect of dog care in itself. It makes every individual pet special because dogs have their own unique personalities, and being able to tap into that and create a bond is different from dog to dog. This is one of the best parts of taking care of people’s pets! Any of your specific needs and accommodations will be met and/or exceeded when in my care, guaranteed! I am a journeyman lineman and I work 4 days a week. Aside from that I own a dog training business where I train dogs on weekends. My wife Teal is home every day for any assistance in care for your dogs and we are both committed to giving the most comfortable and enjoyable stay for your dogs! Trusting someone with these members of our family can be stressful and hard to do at times. I understand better than anyone that giving my pets up to someone can be a daunting task. We need to trust our pets are given the same care they get at home and are loved like one of our own. In this household we have 1 cat and 2 dogs. There is nothing more important than treating your dog equally as good as one of our own. Between my wife and myself the pets we care for will receive our undivided attention and compassion. We incorporate tons of engagement and interactive play time. We are sure to see that these pets aren’t just alone and disregarded. My wife and myself strive to have an environment where animals can have a stress free and fun loving home to reside in until their owners make it back to them. Rest assured that I have been caring for dogs for many years, and training dogs for close to 7 now. You will not find a more loving and compassionate place for your dog than right here!
“Meagan is a 10/10, would definitely recommend!! Meagan is an amazing dog sitter and gives us the peace of mind we needed. Our puppy, Finnegan, runs to her at drop off and has a fun-filled day with lots of indoor and outdoor activity with built in rest time as well. Meagan is extremely mindful and takes the best care of our puppy.”
“Cyen is great! My very shy pup warmed up to her in no time. The fenced in yard is nice for potty breaks and playing chase. Communication was great, Cyen even sent pictures and updates throughout the day. Highly recommend!”
About: Love to walk, run or go on hikes often depending on your request! Happy to assist your pet while you are away and send lots of updates! If visits are needed during the weekend and/or when school is off my three children will likely be joining me to help. I’m available full time, typically start dog runs at 9:00am and love to go on hikes (weather permitting) I am open to any additional pet requests. We have a large grassed yard with access to the lake for swimming and dock jumping. Additionally, daily walks and runs on leash. Lots of extra pet supplies if needed.
About: Dogs are a big part of our daily life. We have two of our own—a friendly Golden Retriever, Oakley, and a playful Bernedoodle, Teddy—so I’m very familiar with different energy levels, personalities, and routines. I have hands-on experience with: • Daily walks, playtime, and exercise • Feeding schedules and portion control • Crate routines and basic training consistency • Managing multiple dogs at once • Recognizing behavior changes and keeping dogs comfortable Because I work from home, your dog won’t be left alone for long periods. They’ll get consistent attention, outdoor time, and a structured but relaxed environment. We also have a fenced-in yard, which allows for safe play and movement throughout the day. Our home is set up to be dog-friendly, and I treat every dog like part of the family—while still respecting their routine so they feel secure. Flexible availability for mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends depending on scheduling. I work from home and can provide all your pets needs in our home. Calm, dependable, and attentive care Safe family environment with clear expectations Must be good with both children and other dogs Fenced yard for safe outdoor play Experience managing multiple dogs Regular communication and photo updates Focus on routine, safety, and comfort
About: I have taken care of my own pets, as well as many others in my home. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me with their loved pets! I am currently working part time and mostly from home. I am in school part time from home as well, so I can be with your pet the entire time. I have a fenced in yard and only 1 dog myself. I can walk dogs. I can crate them if needed. I can offer baths as well!
“Gianina watched my 7 month old puppy for 4 consecutive days. She was awesome to work with and each day my puppy came home happy, healthy, and tired. I truly appreciate her caring for him so well and I would absolutely book with her again in the future.”
About: I have grown up around dogs my whole life and I've had my first (adult life) dog for three and a half year. Wila Rose is an Australian Cattle Dog mix. About a year and a half ago we added another rescue, Buckley Quinn. He is a smart but goofy boy. They both go backpacking with us and we do a lot of hiking on our local public land areas. We enjoy playing around in our yard with our limited dog agility set and learning new tricks. We occasionally go swimming but love jumping and exploring new water areas and hiking trails. Wila and Buckley are a huge part of my life. We enjoy hiking, being outdoor, and traveling as much as possible. We do quite a but of training included but not limited to: agility, scent training, shed training, and just some fun party tricks. I am new to Rover so please feel free to reach out with any questions. I have an acre of land (not fenced in). We love to go on walks and sniffaris at our local parks. Buckley loved to play with other dogs and Wila is more of a people dog. They even loves to go backpacking and hiking which often include 10+ miles a day.
About: We recently lost our senior dog, so we have lots of doggy love available for your pet! I work from home, so your pet will get lots of attention, frequent visits to the backyard, and a walk at lunchtime. I work from home full time, so I'm here to interact with your pet and provide frequent breaks for play and potty. My boyfriend gets home from work in the late afternoon and will shower your pet with affection as well! I have a small, unfenced yard and will let your dog outside on a long lead to keep him/her safe and under my supervision. Your dog will have access to kitchen, living/dining room, bathroom, and up to 3 bedrooms. Basement will not be accessible.
About: I have always had family pets growing up. I got my own dog when I was in high school. I currently own 2 well-mannered dogs, a hunting labrador and a scent detection pit-mix. I have more than 2 years of professional gun dog training experience, and have trained over 50 other puppies/dogs. I currently work from home, so I will be able to accommodate any schedule your pet may need. My own dogs recieve 2 feedings per day (5am and 5pm). We often take a morning walk (typically no less than 1-2 miles, less if I am walking a young puppy or senior dog with mobility issues). Also evening walks if weather is appropriate. I do not allow my dogs to do strenuous activity or rough play right after a meal. The yard is not fenced, so dogs will be on leash or long-line and fully supervised when outside the home. For off-lead outdoor fun we will take trips to the local dog park (not a very heavily utilized park, usually empty). I have experience providing oral and subcutaneous medication to pets, should your pet need medication while in my care.
“Rita and Dan are amazing and truly love dogs. They are kind, caring, attentive, and the dogs have a great time together. As a bonus for us, they are fun to talk to and great with communication and updates. They helped us out with our two dogs with short term notice and were understanding when we were unexpectedly delayed because of weather. Highly recommend!”

About: As far as experience goes there isn’t a time in my life I remember that I wasn’t caring for an animal. From reptiles, to rodents, to cats and dogs, I’ve had them all. From a young age I was taught responsibility and discipline when it came to caring for tiny creatures. Additionally for over two years I volunteered weekly at a local animal shelter. During this time I gained knowledge as to how animals interacted with one another, how to properly administer medication, warning signs to look out for, what to do in emergencies, and deeply studied animal behavior. To add on to that I am currently employed at a doggie daycare. During my time here not only have I gotten to widen my horizons when it came to taking care of animals but I have learned hands on how to bandage a wound, what to do in animal confrontations as well as how to handle the unexpected such as sickness or seizures. Additionally over the last 3 years I have volunteered at different animal welfare programs across the globe. These include Portugal, Puerto Rico, Tanzania and soon Hawaii. During this time I have not only seen hands on other cultures way of taking care of animals but also gained knowledge as to how to better the animal care I provide to clients. As I previously stated I currently am employed at a doggie daycare. Additionally I work at a bakery as well. My schedule changes weekly so it can be hard to give an exact time frame when booking. Typically I work up to 8 hour shifts. I typically prefer to stay in clients homes to keep their pets safe and happy in their own environment. I will be there in the morning before work, and will immediately come back when I get off as well as being there at night. I try to spend as much time as possible with the pets while you are away I typically only offer staying in the clients home and I am comfortable crating animals while gone. I always keep things like medications safely out of reach and secured. Additionally upon booking I typically ask about any health notes, allergies, or special needs as well as a good contact number for your vet in case of emergency.
About: My family has had a dog since I was younger and I currently have a mini goldendoodle. I understand how keeping dogs happy and cared for is vital to ‘owners.’ I have a very flexible and open schedule! I like to take my own dog for longer walks to get energy out and relax our minds together. I love playing with them so they’re not just sitting around unhappy. It’s important to me to make sure all of their needs are met as I believe this affects longevity and overall well-being.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who has cared for dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs and birds. I’m very comfortable caring for animals both young and old. I have experience with senior dogs that require daily care (medications/baths/eye and ear cleaning) as well as animals still in training. Whether your pet needs high-energy fun or gentle companionship, I’ll treat them like a member of my family. If boarding at your home I’m also willing to help with gathering mail, watering plants and other small household needs. I’m currently not working many hours at my job and thought this would be a great way to spend my extra time since I love animals. I am responsible for normal activities such as feeding my dog twice a day, and letting her out. I take time daily to play with my dog and enjoy giving her treats. I also find time to wash her, clip her nails, clean her face, etc.
About: “God speaks to the creatures through the creatures.” -Dr. Chase. “All you need is love.” -John Lennon. Plenty of love I have to give, but I also have the experience of 35 years as a science teacher. I’m well-versed in how animals like dogs and cats talk to us through their gestures. Dogs evolved with humans, and I understand that relationship and how dogs meet our emotional needs. Please read my first four reviews which I received from pet owners that I served even before signing up with Rover. The pet owner decides when treats are allowed, if table scraps are allowed, and how much food to give. The dog decides when it wants to go potty. 😉 Just in case, I usually take the dog out before it decides and always before any discomfort. Snuggles welcome. 🐾🥰😻 When serving you and your pet, I like to send pictures. We can also use FaceTime or Zoom to check in. 🐶🤩 At age 61, I’ve been a retired teacher for 3 years, and my activity level allows me to run or play with your beloved dog. In your home, I follow instructions and do the routine for your beloved just like you would. However, if I’m allowed to give more snuggles, or more walks, or more training than you normally have time for, I’m at your service.

“Travis is phenomenal! Very respectful of my home and pets needs! Communicated quickly and was flexible to my pets needs and any changes that came up, especially with our puppy. He takes amazing photos too, I loved every single one he sent as an update! Super trustworthy!”
“I did not know what to expect, being the first time I contacted a dog walker through Rover. Jessica exceeded all my expectations. She did a fantastic job with taking our dog out for 2 different walks (much longer than I expected) throughout the day. We appreciated the many updates; when she started and ended, during the walks, the pictures, messages, and the summary at the end. I would highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, growing up with dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, fish, and even a tarantula, animals have always been such an important part of my life. Even though they can’t talk, they quickly become your best friend and constant companion. I believe every animal deserves to be treated with love, kindness, and the best care possible, no matter their age, size, or breed. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with everything from training playful puppies to helping care for senior dogs, including giving medications and basic health care. I also adopted my two kittens when they were just four months old, and they’re now happy, healthy three-and-a-half-year-olds. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s something I truly enjoy. Hi there! I’m new to Mayville and have open availability to walk, play with, and care for your furry loved ones. I always make sure fresh food and clean water are provided, with bowls cleaned regularly to keep everything sanitary.

Pee pads are changed out and litter is changed once a month while cleaning litter box out daily. I am sure that my cats live in a safe environment and are happy and healthy.
About: Being with animals isn't a job for me, it's my favorite thing to do! I've grown up with animals around me my whole life, and I started walking dogs when I was 16. Almost 20 years later I am still loving on pets whenever I can. I currently own a Bearded Dragon and a senior pup - But I owned special needs kitties for 19 years. Here's some about me and my experience! 70% of my one-time clients have booked me again or become regular clients! Please reach out with any questions on rates, experience, or anything else you want to discuss! Pet Care Experience: - Dogs: Puppies older than 6 months, juveniles, adults and seniors - Cats: Kittens older than 8 months, juveniles, adults and seniors - Small mammals like guinea pigs, hamsters - Reptiles like Bearded Dragons and Leopard Geckos - Fish What can I do that sets me apart? - Medication administration with mild- to moderate-tempered cats (oral, topical, injection) - Experience with Separation Anxiety, high-energy, and pets that don't do well with other animals (keeping walks, etc safe!) - Experience with multi-pet homes and environments. I've watched 13 cats and 2 dogs in the same home once! - Manual feeding assistance for sick pets - LOTS of attention. My visits are longer than most as I love to just sit with pets and give them attention in the ways they need or want. For overnight stays, I'm a homebody so I love to stay at the house and just hang out with the animals! - A LOT of Flexibility: I don't work full-time right now, and my sleep schedule isn't regular. This means I have no issues with adjusting schedules even last minute. Need me to come earlier? Or come back when your flight is cancelled? No problem. - *Cat Whisperer* I have been told by most of, if not all, cat clients that are standoffish like me quicker or more than a normal stranger. I love cats the most, so I think they can sense it ;) - *Coming Soon* Insurance for your pet and home during my stays! Any tips will be going towards that and training classes so I can grow. About me: - I've lived in WI since 2009 - I have 18 years of working experience - clerical, customer, administrative and sales support, retail - In my free time I like going to concerts, listening to music and doing crafts/projects, playing video games or hanging out with my friends and family Currently my schedule is completely open! I am flexible for even last minute bookings or changes. I have my own transportation and things are taken care of for me at home. So long stays, short stays or visits work for me. I work around whatever needs you and your pets have so make sure everyone is as comfortable as possible. I'll ask for a digital or typed/written instructions so I can follow them to the letter! I keep areas clean and make sure everything is secure before I leave a home. I also always send a "closing" message for overnight stays with details like mail collection etc! Your pet's safety and your ease of mind are my top priorities.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was in middle school. My family dog is 17 years old now so I also have experience working with senior dogs. I live in a great neighborhood with many dog parks and my apartment complex has a dog run behind it. I have also trained and foster puppies before so I am familiar with positive behavioral reinforcement and do not believe in punishing dogs. I have worked in mental health for over 10 years as a therapist so I also have an amble amount of patience. Mondays and Fridays I work remotely so I am available for mid-day potty breaks on top of offering afternoon/evening/overnight care. I also have some flexibility to work remotely other days as well. My typical schedule is as below: Mondays: Available any time (working remotely) Tuesdays: Available after 5 pm Wednesdays: Available after 5 pm Thursdays: Available after 7 pm Fridays: Available any time (working remotely) Saturdays: Available anytime Sundays: Available anytime Do you have specific time requests, let's chat and find a way to work together! I do not have any dogs in my apartment but there are many friendly dogs in the neighborhood I've observed. I love dogs and always take my job of dog sitting seriously. Dogs deserve to be taken care of the right way! I know safe places to go for walks in my neighborhood, I am very vigilant to not let dogs put anything harmful in their mouths, and I ensure my apartment is very dog safe.
About: I have taken care of pets for 23 years! I also have experience in watching friend’s pets around DC. I’m excellent at playing with pets and also very responsible in caring for them. I am able to care for pets in between working on projects. I’m a freelancer, so I have lots of flexibility in my schedule that I can use to come watch pets! I keep my responsibilities on a timed schedule, so I never forget to take dogs on a walk or feed cats promptly. I am very energetic and love to play around, if the pet is interested.
About: Hi, my name is Kayla. I am a photographer and caregiver. I am a very compassionate and patient person. I have always been a big animal lover. I have owned multiple dogs throughout my life and many other types of animals. I love to be active and outdoors. I have a big open back yard for your dog to run around in. I also am knowledgeable with dogs that have separation anxiety.Leaving you're pet with me is like leaving your pet at a Royal Castle for animals. I promise I will love and spoil your baby. I currently only work as a photographer so I have an open and adjustable schedule. I get to make my own schedule and work with my clients. I have a big yard for your dog to play in. I also have a dog that love to play and tire each other out. I have two large crates if dogs need to be crated.
About: I’ve grown up raising 2 toy poodles from my childhood. Now as an adult I adopted my first dog of my own, Mabel, who is an 5yr old lab! I also have horses, so have been around all sorts of animals my whole life. Love any and all sizes and breeds of pups! I work from home so my schedule is very flexible and can do last minute/short notice requests no problem! If you need me to spend a little more time with your pet, I can easily bring my work computer with me. I would treat your home as my own. Follow any/all rules you may have as well as rules for your pet. My dog is crate trained when away so I am comfortable having anything to do around crating.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life and am now a proud owner for the past 1.5 years! I’m around 1-2 times throughout a typical work day to let my puppy out. She rules this house so no furniture or beds are off limits, which is extended to all the dogs that come into my home (I’ve recently become the extended family dog sitter due to my work schedule). Monday’s-Thursdays I am home 1-2 times during the typical work day for about a half hour each time. Fridays and weekends I’m typically home most of the day, maybe running errands here and there. Allie rules the house here! She is allowed on furniture and beds and this would extend to your baby too. We spend a lot of time outside with water always available and I’m always out with her. We have tons of toys and she doesn’t mind sharing them.
About: I have worked with three doggy daycares with different social settings and dynamics small groups to groups of 45. We are trained to care for dogs, of any breed. Poop, or throw up I can handle it. I work part-time my schedule shifts, are Tuesday, and Sunday. However, I can change my shifts to meet your schedule needs. never be afraid to ask and always ask me a week in advance. I have been trained through three different doggy daycare programs that have introduced different training protocols to understand the needs, health, Dog AID, behaviors, and more of different breeds. Your fur babies or little ones will receive all the love and care they need. I will keep you updated with videos, photos, or even FaceTime to show you how everything is going when I visit a client’s home. I always follow and respect the rules, and if I notice anything unusual, I will report it and ask questions, because your pets’ well-being is my top priority.

About: Hi! My name is Ryaan, and I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life. Animals have always been a huge part of my family, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I also worked for several years at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, where I gained hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering basic care, supervising playtime, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Your pet will be treated like family in my care! 🐾 I currently have just a few 1 hour classes a week on just Mondays and Wednesdays and am home for the most part otherwise making me available for your pets. -fenced in yard -home frequently -able to provide long walks and lots of playtime -safe home (mostly pet proofed) -stairs are needed to be taken to get up to the house and down to the backyard

“Pat was a great sitter and recognized that our dog Rowdy was in distress and took the initiative to get him to our vet. He ended up having emergency surgery for a twisted stomach, and if it wasn't for Pat's quick response it would have been a different outcome. We are thankful that Pat was caring for Rowdy.”
About: I have always had family pets growing up. I got my own dog when I was in high school. I currently own 2 well-mannered dogs, a hunting labrador and a scent detection pit-mix. I have more than 2 years of professional gun dog training experience, and have trained over 50 other puppies/dogs. I currently work from home, so I will be able to accommodate any schedule your pet may need. My own dogs recieve 2 feedings per day (5am and 5pm). We often take a morning walk (typically no less than 1-2 miles, less if I am walking a young puppy or senior dog with mobility issues). Also evening walks if weather is appropriate. I do not allow my dogs to do strenuous activity or rough play right after a meal. The yard is not fenced, so dogs will be on leash or long-line and fully supervised when outside the home. For off-lead outdoor fun we will take trips to the local dog park (not a very heavily utilized park, usually empty). I have experience providing oral and subcutaneous medication to pets, should your pet need medication while in my care.
“Kathleen was absolutely fantastic we had never used rover before so we were a little nervous at first. Kathleen quickly put us at ease and communicated regularly throughout the days. Both our dogs had a great time and were asleep before we got home. We will definitely use her again.”
“We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with April. She is very friendly, her home is beautiful and clean, she has a couple of cute kiddos, and she has friendly dogs of her own which provided entertainment for our Paisley.
