“Erika was fantastic with our sweet Emmie! This was the first time leaving her and she kept in constant communication, sending updates and pictures. Our girl had so much fun playing with their boys, and we can tell they are true animal lovers. Will definitely use them again!”
“Bethany watched Hazel for a brief overnight stay. Bethany was very engaged and knowledgeable. I am very confident with Hazel in her care. I hope to be able to use her services again.”
“This was the first time our dogs were left with anyone other than our immediate family. I was very please with Jennifer's communication prior to the boarding and her willingness to put my mind at ease, including the offer to meet them in advance if I wanted. My family absolutely appreciated the pictures, video, and texts letting us know that the dogs were adjusting well and having fun. She even took them for a car ride! I would definitely use Jennifer again for our boarding and highly recommend her to others!”
About: Taking walks around my pond, lots of cuddles, and play will be enjoyed at my home. Open to working with your feeding schedule preferences for your pet. Weekends, I will be home more to play and cuddle. I work outside of home during the week, but in the evenings I will have lots of time to play and have fun. If you have a crate, I would love for you to bring it for the dog. This way, if I am sitting with multiple pets while I'm gone, they are safe. Also, I will always have a leash in my complex.
“Tammie was amazing with the dogs. She watched both mine and my daughter’s dog. She sent updates through out the entire stay. She made the boys feel right at home. So much so that they were crying to go back as soon as we got them home. Highly recommend and will be booking with Tammie again in the future.”
“My puppy Lola LOVES Gabriella and her pup Simba! I always know she’s having fun and in great hands :) Will continue to use Gabriella as I work nights and she keeps the dogs on a tight potty schedule. Definitely recommend.”
“Marilyn was amazing!! When Nikko first met her, he instantly fell in love with her. She was great with communication and providing picture updates of him. He was spoiled with walks and play time. Highly recommend her!”
“Brandi is the absolute BEST! If you’re looking for someone to take care of your pup, use Brandi! She communicative, friendly & flexible with dates & times. I know my pup is in great hands when I leave her with Brandi!”
“Shawn & Joey took amazing care of our dog. They took her to the dog park which she absolutely loved and sent us pictures and updates throughout her stay with them. We would definitely recommend Shawn & Joey if you need a dog sitter!”
About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have years of experience caring for pets of my own, as well as helping family and friends with theirs. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, and I treat every animal with the same care and attention I would want for my own. I’m responsible, detail-oriented, and comfortable following specific routines for feeding, walks, medications, and individual pet needs. I love getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their humans are away. I have a flexible schedule and would love the opportunity to provide dependable care, playtime, and lots of affection for your furry family members! I currently work mainly remote, so I am able to have a flexible schedule to tend to your pets care and needs. I enjoy building pet care into my day! I love starting with walks, playtime, and attention to help pets feel comfortable and happy. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications, and any special instructions. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, so I take the time to learn their personality, needs, and routines. I’m responsible, attentive, and will treat your pet like my own while they’re in my care. I provide a calm, loving environment where pets can feel safe, relaxed, and cared for.
“Andrea was wonderful. My dog Gracie has severe anxiety and it wasn’t going to work, unfortunately. I ended up having to leave work and take her home. I felt bad for Andrea, but she reassured me she was fine with everything. Some dogs just don’t do well in other people’s homes. Anita”
“It was a wonderful experience leaving Nelli with Cathy. She greeted us at the door and made Nelli feel at home. She was well taken care of and we will definitely use her services again. Received many pictures and videos throughout the day which made us feel very comfortable.”
“our dog had never been away from home for this long so we were a little nervous to leave him but, Christy was amazing and took care of him like he was her own, she gave him endless cuddles and love. she kept us updated through the week with tons of videos and pics and even facetimed us too! Ozzy had tons of fun playing outside and socializing with the other pups. I will 100% take our baby back to her!”

About: Hi there, I’m Sarah! Thank you for stopping by my profile! I’m a proud U.S. Navy veteran who separated from the military in 2017. Growing up in a military family, I had the opportunity to live in 25 different states and 6 countries, which gave me a deep appreciation for people, cultures, and the incredible diversity of animals around the world. Those experiences helped shape my adaptable, compassionate personality and my love for caring for both people and animals. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve cared for everything from dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, chickens, and goats to helping family members care for horses, cows, and other farm animals. Whether your pet has paws, feathers, or scales, I’m comfortable providing patient, attentive care tailored to their individual personality and needs. I currently have an older service dog named Basil and a senior cat named Dhara, so I understand firsthand how important it is to provide gentle care, consistency, and a calm environment—especially for older pets. If your pet stays with me, they’ll be welcomed into a peaceful home where they’ll receive plenty of love, attention, and supervision. One of the experiences I’m most proud of was spending two years training my service dog, Basil, through the ARF Pets for Vets program in Walnut Creek, California. That experience taught me a tremendous amount about canine behavior, positive reinforcement, communication, and building trust. It also strengthened my belief that every animal communicates in their own unique way, and I take the time to understand their body language so they feel safe, respected, and comfortable. Outside of pet care, I’m a freelance product designer and entrepreneur who enjoys creating new products, designing 3D models, and bringing ideas to life. I also love cooking, baking, traveling, exploring new places, and discovering local restaurants—I’m even an Elite Yelp reviewer, so you could say I enjoy finding the best hidden gems wherever I go! When caring for your pet, my goal is to make them feel like they’re part of the family. I know how difficult it can be to leave a beloved pet behind, so I strive to provide the same level of care, patience, and affection that I’d want for my own animals. What you can expect from me: • Personalized care based on your pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. • Experience caring for a wide variety of companion and farm animals. • Daily photo, video, and text updates so you always know how your pet is doing. • A meet-and-greet before booking to make sure we’re a great fit. • Basic training guidance and positive reinforcement tips when appropriate. • A clean, calm, safe, and loving environment where your pet’s health, comfort, and happiness always come first. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I truly appreciate that trust. I look forward to meeting you and your furry (or feathered or scaly!) family members and providing them with the same love and care I’d give my own. I work full-time Monday through Friday with every other Friday off. From 6 AM to 3 PM, but I can accommodate meet and greets throughout the week, including drop in visits on my lunch break. If I’m staying at a client’s home, I can easily plan my schedule around your pet’s needs, ensuring they receive consistent care and attention. I’m most available for extended services Friday through Sunday, so we can coordinate a schedule that works best to keep your furry, feathered, or scaly friend happy and comfortable. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for every pet in my care. In my home or a client’s home, I ensure the space is pet-proofed and free of hazards. I follow each pet’s routine to make them feel at ease, respecting their space and preferences. For new pets, I take the time to build trust through positive interactions and gentle introductions. If I’m caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, safe space with designated areas for eating, sleeping, and play. I supervise all interactions, especially with other animals, to ensure everyone's safety. I also maintain cleanliness, making sure litter boxes are scooped daily (or more frequently depending on the pet), food and water bowls are clean, and any medication needs are carefully followed. When staying in a client’s home, I respect their environment by keeping their pet’s routine consistent, and I ensure they have a safe, familiar space. I communicate regularly with pet owners to update them on their pet’s well-being and to address any concerns. My goal is to provide the same level of care, attention, and comfort in your home as I would in mine.

I have a very flexible schedule, meaning I will never rush through a visit.

I am currently a student working part time. I would love to fit your pets care into my schedule, reach out and we can collaborate! I am not taking boarding requests at this time as I have my own pups and not enough space to host any more fur babies.

“Jennifer was AMAZING. She had a mini doggie day care day the day Loki visited, which was great for Loki to have other dogs to play with. It was a rainy day, so there was probably lots of mischief going on inside her house. She sent pictures and videos of his stay with reassuring words as this was the first time we used Rover. When i picked him up he was somewhat happy to see me, yet looked back as if he wanted to stay longer to play with his new friends and human. We will definitely have Jennifer take care of Loki in the future.”

About: I've taking care of dog for a year plus now. My friends and family trust and relied on me to walk, feed, bathe and have their pets stay overnight at my house. My house is especially a good environment for dog because my yard is fenced and the dog have their own furniture and their own room. I'm currently a stay at home dog mom and a bake at home so I have plenty of time to play and walk your pet which I love doing. My yard is fenced and I have a friendly dog to keep your dog company while he/she is here. I have plenty of toys and treats available for the dogs as well.
“Sarah is amazing. Lily is all puppy and has all the puppy energy. Sarah kept us up to date on the adventures of their day. Her professionalism is top notch. Sarah gave us helpful suggestions on training and recommended a couple toys Lily would benefit from. Lily had a great day.”
“Christy is such an awesome dog sitter I would recommend her to anyone. Sent me lots of videos and pictures and I look forward to having her care for my puppy again soon!”
“Great experience, Brandi was able to accommodate my Velvet in short notice when we needed it the most, sent picture updates regularly and that made me feel more comfortable, also Velvet liked going back there which means Velvet enjoyed it too.”

“Becky is everything you could hope for from a pet sitter. We were in her area for a funeral and left our dog with her for the day. The experience was great. Her communication was excellent, she has a gorgeous dog-friendly neighborhood and home, and she took excellent care of our dog. She and her kids returned him to us happy and tired, which is no small feat. I would go far out of my way to leave our dog with Becky again. Thanks so much!”
“Absolutely amazing experience. Lovely family..so animal friendly. Our baby loves going to Morgan's home. She had the ability to learn how to be gentle with littles...run like crazy outside and play nice with other pups”
About: My mother Michele has retired from Rover and has handed me the reins so to speak. My name is Nikki, i grew up with all different kinds of animals and have volunteered with the humane society for many years. I specialize with helping feral/aggressive animals when i can find the time. My mother calls me the animal whisperer 😊 My husband Ben and i will take jobs together so we have some more flexibility. He also grew up with animals, he has specialized with training huskies in the past. We have an 11 year old daughter that loves to help play with animals. Even in youth she has had a lot of experience with animals and is very respectful and patient. One of her favorite activities is to exercise with animals, so occasionally if I am watching an animal that is good with kids and requires exercise, I will bring her along to join in the fun! (With your permission of course) We have have 3 fur babies of our own, Gypsy, Mila and Blu 😊 My husband and I work 8AM-4:30 Monday-Friday and have weekends off. We will need to schedule around our work during the week, but our weekends are usually open! I give all animals the amount of affection and time they need. An animal will tell you how much or little attention they would like, you can hear it through their reaction to you. Patience is always a must. I have taught my daughter this as well. You cannot properly care for an animal unless you understand their personality.
“Nick and his wife took excellent care of my two dogs! They sent pictures with updates throughout the day. I will definitely use them again if the need arises. 10/10 recommend for anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!”
About: Having grown up on a farm, I have been around dogs and other animals all of my life. I love all animals and have a special fondness for dogs. I will treat your dog like my own. Please let me know about any special needs your dog has, from dietary restrictions to behavioral concerns-I am very accommodating and will do my best to make the transition from your house to mine as seamless as possible and would like your help in understanding how best to do that for your dog.

I am able to crate your pet if that is what they are used to for during the night. Please bring their crate with you and any other items they feel comfortable with while crated.

“Brittany is wonderful! I can’t Rave enough! She’s been walking Chloe for about a month, twice a day and has been here promptly rain or shine. She’s taken a lot of pictures of Chloe on her walks and has always provided detailed feedback. She even put up with Chloe hitting her on the back of her legs when she’s showing off her many, many sticks along the way. I will definitely use Brittany again and recommend her to anyone who has a pet to 💕 love. Trari”

Ensuring they have clean water and enough food. My goal is to ensure your dog(s) feels safe and comfortable in their environment(s).
About: I've grown up surrounded by animals from dogs & cats, to cattle & horses. For dogs, I've had labradors trained as family dogs, and as bird hunting dogs. I've had several house cats with varying personalities. I have been caring for my own pets for 8 years, and have been house and pet sitting for others for 3. I've administered oral medications, worked with high energy dogs, elderly dogs, and handicapped cats. I have worked with foster dogs, and trained working dogs. If you are interested in my services surrounding animals besides dogs & cats, let's talk! I am currently a college student and involved in a couple clubs on campus. I'm free most evenings for overnights, and typically have frequent breaks in my day that allow me to let dogs out or walk them. I am comfortable with a variety of training/pet ownership styles, ranging from kenneled dogs following strict rules, to those used to having rule of the house. I work to respect the current training styles as to not disrupt predetermined expectations for animals. I have worked with a wide range of pet ownership styles and can adapt to meet the routines of the animals, from feeding and walking, to rules surrounding furniture and socialization. I work to keep your animals as comfortable and happy as possible.
About: I have always had pets in my life. From rescued dogs I would fine abandoned on the side of the road to horses who were about to be euthanized by our local rancher. Cats, kittens, puppies and adult senior dogs always have a place in my heart and home. I am an adopter and rescuer. I would love to help you with potty breaks to walks. Feeding to medication administration. Let me know what you need help with and I’ll be there. I’m currently looking to help pet owners as I have been in situations where I needed help with drop ins for potty breaks to needing someone to walk my dog while I was at work. I’m familiar and comfortable with doing all of the above along with giving oral or topical medication. I’m recently retired and would love to spend time helping out. I am very familiar with dogs and cats and all that goes along with making sure they’re comfortable and well taken care of care of.

About: I’ve grown up with many different kinds of animals from dogs to bunnies & hamsters. I’ve also been around cats my entire life we just never had one in the house because my mom was allergic. I love animals as they have been my entire life growing up! I have been dog sitting for a year now, since January 2025 Pet care takes place in my everyday life because I have an 8-year-old dog and just got a puppy recently. I love to take them on walks and play with them outside. I also love teaching them new tricks and making sure they have fresh food and water. I can take your dogs on walks if they need them daily. I would also love to play with them to keep them entertained and get there energy out. If your dog sleeps in the bed no worries I love to have a snuggle bug next me.

About: I grew up on a farm so I have plenty of experience with a variety of animals! I was also the Columbia County Dog Training President and trained dogs through my 4-H group for 10 years as I have always had a passion for animals. I have a history with dogs, cats, farm animals, and nearly all small pets (fluffy, feathered, or scales!). I have often taken in rescues in my life and pride myself in treating your pets as my own. Rates are negotiable depending on service needed and distance. At this moment I do not do over night stays as my own animals do not do well with me being gone all night and day. Currently I am working full time with kwik trip and have a flexible schedule. Please reach out to me if you have any questions regarding scheduling! I have knowledgeable leash handling skills for dog walking and have gone through dog fight safety training in the event a dog becomes reactive. With my large expanse of animal handling I am able to stay calm and collected if there were any issues or follow specific instructions from the owner. I am also experienced with handling animals as large as horses or as small as bugs! I treat your pets as special as my own, I am even working on a scrapbook! I follow instructions and boundaries thoroughly to give your family the best experience possible.

“Erika was fantastic with our sweet Emmie! This was the first time leaving her and she kept in constant communication, sending updates and pictures. Our girl had so much fun playing with their boys, and we can tell they are true animal lovers. Will definitely use them again!”
“This was the first time our dogs were left with anyone other than our immediate family. I was very please with Jennifer's communication prior to the boarding and her willingness to put my mind at ease, including the offer to meet them in advance if I wanted. My family absolutely appreciated the pictures, video, and texts letting us know that the dogs were adjusting well and having fun. She even took them for a car ride! I would definitely use Jennifer again for our boarding and highly recommend her to others!”
About: Taking walks around my pond, lots of cuddles, and play will be enjoyed at my home. Open to working with your feeding schedule preferences for your pet. Weekends, I will be home more to play and cuddle. I work outside of home during the week, but in the evenings I will have lots of time to play and have fun. If you have a crate, I would love for you to bring it for the dog. This way, if I am sitting with multiple pets while I'm gone, they are safe. Also, I will always have a leash in my complex.
“Tammie was amazing with the dogs. She watched both mine and my daughter’s dog. She sent updates through out the entire stay. She made the boys feel right at home. So much so that they were crying to go back as soon as we got them home. Highly recommend and will be booking with Tammie again in the future.”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for 29 years+ From my own to families and friends. There is NOTHING more that I love, than dogs!! My two labs I’ve raised since 6 weeks old. I talk to my two babies all day long. If I’m not with my boys, I’m constantly thinking of them and wanting to know how they are! If I run an errand I always want to call my dogs and talk to them and let them know momma will be right back! I am that crazy dog lady that tells my boys everything I do! I feel they need to know and I want them to feel loved! If I’m not snuggling my boys or playing with them I’m telling them stories or just loving on them! My one lab loves to snuggle and is always always either on my lap or right at my side! I will do anything for my babies and any dog in my care! The more the merrier!! My two labs are laid back and great with other dogs. They really don’t mind that they are around! Though I know they would love a playmate at times! Anyone can rely on me to check in on a pet, feed, take out and any other duties especially loving on them! I’m not one to just drop in and do the duty- I want to get all the snuggles and kisses and let them have some play time! Some friends and neighbors have been having me stay and take care of their pets or drop in care for 10+ years. There’s nothing I love more than caring for pets! They give me the happiness that my loved ones do because they are “my loved ones too!” Some people say I’m a dog whisper. I live and breathe for my 2 dogs I currently have. Ages 10 and 12! I enjoy seeing them run, play, tail wag and smile! I’m home with them daily and talk to them as if they can understand ;) they are my Velcro babies and I wouldn’t have it any other way!! Let me know if u would like to meet up and we can get things rolling and I can be a help with whatever it is that u need to make sure ur pets are well cared for, happy, loved and having fun. It’s like a mini vacation for the pets! :) I look forward to making ur pets stay, walk, boarding, or any help I can be! I am super Excited to give all my love for ur fur baby and then some! I would love to and enjoy sending pictures and updates on my own and also anything that would help u know that ur pet is having a fun time and well cared for! Can’t wait to chat and meet up and be ur dog’s new friend!! I will love them like my own! :) I’m available most of the day to play with, feed, take out, or just some extra snuggle time! Evenings also! Don’t hesitate to reach out even if it’s for one little helping! I take care of our 3 dogs we have now during the day! But I’m looking for extra snuggles and putting that smile on your pets face as much as mine!! I would love to play with, take out, feed and love on your pet for 5 minutes or 1 hour! Very happy to do so! I’d love for your pet to feel loved and safe in my home with my babies , my two black labs who love everyone!! They bring me soo much happiness and joy!! I’m home always to be with them and adore and enjoy them!! 🩷
“Nick and Dorothy cared for my fur baby like it was their own offering daily walks, playtime, and lots and lots of love. Great fenced back yard. Lots of updates and pics. Would highly recommend”
“I would highly recommend! Nikki and Michelle are amazing! My Eva loves them and they sent pictures. Over all was a good stay and always eases my mind knowning my fur baby is taken care of! Will be using them again”
“I had an amazing first experience using the Rover app with Melissa! Chopper seemed comfortable, happy, and well taken care of the entire time. Melissa communicated incredibly well and sent lots of updates and pictures, which gave me a peace of mind. She was also very sweet, flexible with her availability, and active with Chopper. Melissa took Chopper on several long walks, and it was clear he had a great time with her. I would definitely recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a caring, active, and reliable sitter. I look forward to booking with her again for Chopper in the future!”
