“Emily and her dog Curry are both super sweet! Emily stayed in contact with us to calm our anxiety over our Zoe’s first stay with her. We were super impressed that Curry was so kind and gentle with little Zoe as well. Look forward to our next visit!”
“Luana is loving caring individual and takes pride in taking cate of your fur baby making sure my dog was a priority. Sends great pictures to provide updates. I will definitely recommend.”
“Judy was amazing, my pup got scared from the storms and she did everything to comfort him and sent updates and pictures. Definitely will book with Judy again ♥️”
“Cathy was amazing! I had concerns as I had never left my dog for more than an overnight adventure, she gave me a little tour of the house, met her dogs (adorable!) and told me about a few dogs she’s sat for in the past. I received nightly updates and honestly had less anxiety about having him by her than I do about some family members watching him! I know my dog can’t wait to return!”
“Laura boarded Wiley for a weekend. Wiley was well taken care of and enjoyed her Yard. Wiley often has anxiety when we are gone but adapted to Laura and family nicely. He was a happy boy when we picked him up. Laura sent photos and communicated how Wiley was adapting. All went perfectly. I highly recommend Laura to watch your dog.”
“Frankie was amazing with Colt, he settled in nicely and enjoyed his stay there! Updates were provided on how he was doing and were quick to respond when I checked in.”
“Boarding experience review) This is our first dog, and our first time using Rover, and Salena helped put ease to our mind! She sent pictures of our puppy and was really flexible to work with. Bale slept so good when he came home, and he looked like he had the best time! We will definitely be using her again! I highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Had consistent updates and felt very comfortable leaving Furb with Hannah & Braxton B while we were on vacation. Furb said it went super well and already misses his new friends.”
“Scott was great!! He was very accommodating with all of Sadie’s needs and our concerns. He mentioned a few activities that he would do and showed us where Sadie would go out and play. The area was fenced in and very secure. He has two dogs of his own and they were very friendly and Sadie got along great with them.We felt very comfortable after dropping Sadie with Scott. We highly recommend him, and would certainly use his services anytime.”
“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!”
“Lisa did such a great job with our baby Nilah! We have been working really hard with training but a high energy golden can be really challenging. We appreciate Lisa’s patience with Nilah. She also had other dogs to play with throughout the week. Lisa has an extremely friendly family too so we knew our pup was in the best hands.”
“Jesus and his family took great care of our 2 French bulldogs. They sent pictures, took the dogs on walks, and made sure our dogs were comfortable. Great communication throughout. Highly recommend!!”
About: I have been a foster parent for the Humane Society for the last 3 years. I have had dogs and cats all of my life and regularly watch pets for my family and friends. I have a calm and friendly dog named Ketchup that we've had for 14 years. I also have a cat named Binx that I adopted last year from the Humane Society. Animals will stay inside the home in a calm and safe environment. They will get dedicated time and attention while they are boarded here. Animals will have playtime and dogs will go for walks. I will send pictures to their parents while they are away. I work from home so I am always available to keep your pet company while you are gone. This also allows me the time needed to check on your pet and provide bathroom breaks as needed. I can take dogs for daily walks and they will have plenty of playtime. I have a dog and cat to keep your pet company while you are away.
About: I’ve worked with variety of species, specializing with dogs! I have skills with grooming and training. I have 4 of my own dogs and do dog sports as well! I work from home so I have extra time to care for your pets and am able to move around my schedule. Saturdays are the only days I may not be able to take same day bookings! I understand crate and gate management and will make sure your animals are happy and healthy! As of right now I can’t offer boarding in my own home but maybe in the future
“Julie took the BEST care of our little guy on our first trip away from him since we got him. She took many pictures and shared them with us and just treated him like one of her own pets. We appreciated seeing how much love he received while we were gone!”
“Emma was awesome! She had our shetland sheepdog for over two weeks. We did a meet and greet to make sure everyone would get along. It went well and we were very comfortable leaving Nikki for a long time with Emma. Communication was fast for everything. Emma sent pics and an update almost everyday. Nikki was clearly enjoying herself. We would definitely have Emma dogsit Nikki again.”
“Russell had a great time at Lisa's house. He loved her kids and her dog and all the other friends he made. She treated him like family and I think he was sad to leave.”

“Maria did a drop in visit with my pups and I felt good knowing they were in her care. She sent videos and photos and kept me posted about how they were doing. She even gave them fresh water. Would definitely book her again!”
“As always Kathryn was fantastic… she took care of babies, but also our flowers and mail. We never have to worry about anything while we’re away as long as she’s around!”
“Jasmine has done many drop-ins for my cat, Earl Grey since I adopted him in July. She replies promptly and I always can trust she will take good care of my pet. She has properly given him medication in the past when he had an ear infection while I was away. I always look forward to the photo or two that I receive of my cat at every drop in. I also trust Jasmine in my home. If there is ever any incident, she will handle it with integrity. During one of her drop ins, she was vacuuming pieces of cat toy tinsel from my kitchen floor and the vacuum accidentally struck my cat's porcelain water fountain and it broke. She apologized profusely, cleaned up the water, left a hand written note, a suggestion of where to order a replacement, and more than enough money to cover the cost. I'm lucky to have someone so trustworthy to watch my cat when I'm away! I've already recommended her to a coworker and she will be my first choice for future sitting needs.”
“Thank you so much! We can tell from the photos you shared that Josie had a wonderful time playing outside and being spoiled with her treats! We will definitely reach out to have you watch our pup again!”
“Brittany is amazing and professional. She kept my cat happy and stimulated during her visits. Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for someone that’s great with taking care of cats.”
About: I have always had animals around in my life. Overall, I have had the pleasure of having 8 dogs, 2 rabbits, 2 guinea pigs, 1 hamster, and lots of fish (both freshwater and saltwater). Additionally, I have had the opportunity to care for the cats of family members. I have experience with: -Positive Reinforcement Training -Leash Handling -Muzzle Usage -Reactivity Training Guided by Licensed Animal Behaviorists -Veterinary Medication Administration Currently, I have one dog, Josie, who is an Australian Shepherd/Blue Heeler Mix. Josie is dog reactive, and I have spent an extensive amount of time working on her training and care. I am currently available to provide pet care Monday-Thursday from 4:30 pm - 9:30 pm. Oftentimes, I am also available to provide pet care at any time on Saturdays or Sundays. I have availability at any time during the day during these days in July 2026: 7/10, 7/11, 7/18, and 7/31. Since I have a dog at home who is anxious and reactive, I am not able to care for your pet in my own home; however, I would love to care for your fur baby where they are most comfortable -- in your home or in your neighborhood. I typically arrive with small treats in a pouch to share, ensuring my greeting is always positive. While at your home, I will ensure your pet receives exercise/play, multiple potty breaks, and refill water/food as needed. I believe in positive reinforcement, ensuring my interactions with your pet are always kind and respectful.
About: I grew up with pets in my household and have an a great love for dogs of all types! Although I do not own a cat of my own, I do love to play with cats, watching their curious eyes. I enjoy walking/running around with the dog to keep them and myself healthy! I am fairly flexible and am willing to come in and help out at even the oddest times of the day, I am very good at following directions, and pride myself in being thorough with my appointments. Your pet is very special to you, and deserves quality care when you can’t be around. Reach out to me if you need a new pal for your loving, furry member of your great family! Work full time but get up early to get a good dog walk in and the fetch or puppy pool time in the afternoon after work. I have 67-acres where your pet could run! A pond to splash in and a huge ball field for catch! One dog boarding at a time.
“Salena did a fantastic job looking after my four cats. She communicated with me regularly to let me know how things were going and she took photos in which I could see for myself how my pals looked, and they all looked good. I would recommend her highly. I am totally and completely satisfied.”
“My Ezzie loves people but tends to be shy at first. Lisa got her to come out, eat treats and get pets!! That says amazing things about Lisa. We kept in communication with pictures and texts. I never felt nervous. I would recommend Lisa to anyone that asks and will be using her in the future!!”
“Great job by Judy! She came each day to give some TLC to our 3 cats, and they were happy & healthy on our return! We received tons of photos and it comforted us to see that our babies were enjoying the food, clean boxes, and attention. Thank you, Judy & Minlola!”
About: I grew up in an animal loving family! Grew up with dogs my whole life, I’ve taught dogs ages 2-12 how to Sit, Shake, Lay down, Stay, High Five and Up High! I’m very good with dealing with all dogs whether laid back or very hyper! I worked at several dog daycares in the last 4 years! I work a full time M-F job all day, 8a-5p. I also work very part time at another job, so I try to get get out whenever I can as early as possible or go out later as as soon as i can to hang out and take care of animals because they really mean a lot too me and bring me the most joy! I’m a huge outdoorsy person so I love walks with my dog!! As for Ganja, he lovesss the outside so we have the back door open with the screen door shut for him, he does like going outside so we make sure to put on his harness and leash and keep him close to us! My biggest priority is safety, making sure the pet doesn’t run away, or get injured in anyway! My Izy is extremely good off leash, I give her that freedom so she can run all around and get her energy out, she knows where not to go very well!! When on walks she is leashed up always!!
About: I have had cats and dogs my entire life, and I love them all dearly. Many family members and friends have relied on me to take care of their pets when out of town, on vacation, etc. My life is centered around making my own pets, and others’ pets, happy and healthy. I have a very flexible schedule since I attend college online, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs throughout the week. I am available mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends and I’ll do my best to work around your schedule whenever possible. I strive to keep your pets routine as consistent and stress-free as possible while you’re away. I’ll provide plenty of care, love attention, exercise, and updates so you can have peace of mind, knowing they are well cared for.
“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.”
“When we had to be out of town all day, Alyssa was a godsend. She came over a couple times to let him out and play, and sent us the cutest photos of him having fun. We will definitely rebook with Allissa again!”
“Patty was great as always. I really appreciate that I can trust her with my babies. She sends great pictures and my skittish babies are even getting used to her instead of their usual stranger danger attitudes. I will always go to her first for my Rover needs.”
“Crystal was very nice at our Meet & Greet and made sure to take any important notes down. She followed all my pet care instructions perfectly & made sure my babies were taken good care of! I felt relaxed knowing that she had it all handled. I will be booking with her again in the future!”

“The best option to watch your dog! They’re so communicative and send a ton of pictures! They’re flexible when things come up, and Becky always comes home absolutely tuckered out from all the fun she has! ☺️”
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.
“Frankie was so nice. We met before the scheduled date. She gave a detailed and great description before the drop off time and made sure everything was fine. Riley came back happy.”
“You have a great place for a pup to hang out! Thank you for taking care of Duke, he must have had a great time because he’s all tuckered out! We hope you’re available next time we are in the area. Take care, and thanks!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels — from energetic puppies to laid-back seniors. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or administering medications, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I understand how important routine, patience, and positive attention are to your pet’s well-being. I’ve also worked with shy or reactive dogs, and I’m comfortable following any special instructions to make sure your pup feels safe and loved while you’re away. My schedule is currently wide open, so I’m flexible and ready to accommodate your dog’s needs — whether it’s daily walks, last-minute bookings, or ongoing care. I’m available weekdays, weekends, and holidays. Let’s find a time that works best for you and your pup! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always keep dogs on-leash during walks (unless in a secure, off-leash area with your permission), avoid unsafe routes, and stay alert to other animals or hazards. I closely follow your instructions and routines to keep your pet feeling secure and cared for.
About: My husband and I have been watching dogs in our home for over 10 years. Our busy lives of work and family have always held us back from owning our own dog. To satisfy our love for dogs we started watching our friends and families dogs and over the years thru word of mouth we have started getting phone calls asking if we would take on more dogs and then joined Rover. We have experience with small to large dogs, dogs with special dietary needs, dogs that need to be able to run, dogs that want to sit on your lap, to dogs that have medical needs. We believe that dogs should be treated as part of the family. We allow them to sit on furniture, sleep in bed etc.. Our jobs have afford us the ability to be able to adjust our schedules to be flexible and have the option to work from home when we have a dog staying with us. This allows us to be home with your dog to ensure they are getting plenty of play time, outside time and lots of attention. It is very rare that your dog will be home alone for a period of time. Our home is your dogs home... we give the dogs full access to the house. We are non smokers and do not have any pets of our own or small children. We walk the dogs twice a day and have an acre of land that dogs are free to roam, run and play -we like to play ball and tug a rope. We do provide a ground stake with a leash for those that like to run "free". We have ability to work from home and have very flexible schedules when needed. Which in turn allows us to very rarely leave your dog home alone We treat the dogs just as if they were our very own pet.. as part of the family. They have free range of the house .. on the furniture and beds.
About: I’ve been a dog owner since 10 years old and have not gone without mans best friend since! I currently live on 23 acres in the country and long walks and chasing balls packs in most of the day with my 4 dogs Jetta, Odie, Ruby and Rowley. All dogs are dog friendly and well mannered. Graduating puppy classes to canine good citizen classes, plus dabbling in agility and herding. I currently work Weekends Friday-Sunday and my week is filled with lots of outdoor time on my hobbies farm. Lots of free time during the week helps me have fun with my animals and enjoy the sunshine. All my pets are cat and dog friendly and have full freedom of the property. New comers are always on a 12 foot leash during playtime and walks, unless E-collar trained. When first meeting owners I go over your dogs recall manners and slowly introduce them to the pack on a long property walk. This helps incorporate pack leadership and expelling energy at the same time.
About: I love animals, and I care deeply for them. Their company never bothers or annoys me. It makes me happy to take care of them. 😊 I've been taking care of animals since I was little, and I've had a variety of them. I'll never judge an animal or get angry with one; they are pure and true. I've owned and looked after hamsters, lizards, birds, dogs, and cats of different shapes, sizes, and ages throughout my whole life, providing the necessities they need. I'm currently free all the time, so I can always be there. I can be ready anytime during the day and for a decent amount of hours. As a pet sitter, I prioritize providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for furry friends like yours, either in my home or outside and/or your home.

“Audrey has been fantastic in every aspect. Very responsive, respectful & treats my dog like her own. 20 stars if I could. I highly recommend her to take care of your fur child.”
About: I am a dedicated and experienced pet caregiver with two years of professional experience, working in dog boarding and doggy daycare environments. During my time in professional boarding and daycare, I developed a deep understanding of dog behavior, body language, and group dynamics. I learned how to safely manage dogs of all sizes temperament and energy levels while ensuring each dog felt comfortable safe and well cared for my daily responsibilities included feeding supervising play groups, maintaining clean and safe spaces, monitoring behavior and providing individualized attention to each dog. My love for animals began long before my professional experience. I have loved animals my entire life and grew up with pets starting from small pets like guinea pigs and growing into caring for many pets at once. Today I am a proud parent of three dogs (Remi,Nala,Trixie) and three cats (Linus, Hunter, Sweet Pea) of my own, which is giving me firsthand experience with daily pet routines, multi pet households and providing consistent loving care. Caring for animals is not just a job for me. It’s something I’m truly passionate about.

About: Premium Pet & Flock Care Tailored for Every Life Stage As a trusted and experienced pet care provider, I specialize in personalized sitting services for large-breed pups, cats, and their smaller furry friends — with added expertise in puppy training, compassionate senior pet care, and even backyard flock care for chickens. Your pets are unique, and so is my approach: I take time to understand each animal’s personality, routine, and special needs to ensure they feel secure, loved, and engaged while you’re away. From teaching puppies good manners and basic obedience, to gently caring for older pets who need extra patience and attention, to providing thoughtful care for your feline family members — I deliver professional, reliable care that goes far beyond feeding and walking. And for families with backyard chickens, I bring years of hands-on experience as a seasoned chicken owner. I can provide attentive care for your flock — ensuring they’re fed, their coop is secure, and they stay safe and healthy until you’re home again. 🐾 Puppy Training: I help reinforce basic commands, house-training routines, and leash manners, giving your young pup the best start in life. 🐱 Cat Care: I provide gentle, attentive care for cats of all temperaments, making sure they receive the affection, play, and routine they need to feel safe and content. 🐾 Senior Pet Expertise: I understand the special needs of aging pets — from administering medication and assisting with mobility to creating a calm, stress-free environment for rest and comfort. 🐓 Flock Care: As an experienced chicken owner, I know how to care for backyard hens and ensure they’re well-tended and secure in your absence. 🐾 More Than a Sitter — A True Companion: My services are designed to give you peace of mind and your pets (and chickens!) a trusted friend they can rely on. You’ll return to a happy, healthy, and well-cared-for family every time. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I work from home, which allows me to provide loving, attentive care around the clock. My flexible schedule means I can easily adapt to each pet’s unique needs — whether it’s regular walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or administering medication. Because I’m home throughout the day and night, pets in my care enjoy consistent companionship, plenty of interaction, and a stable, comforting environment that feels like home. I’m able to maintain their familiar routines and give them the one-on-one attention they deserve, so they’re never lonely or stressed while you’re away. Pet care isn’t just part of my routine — it’s at the heart of my everyday life. I care for pets in my home by providing round-the-clock attention in a safe, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment where they feel like part of the family. Pets enjoy plenty of playtime, outdoor exercise (especially for large-breed dogs), and cozy resting spots. I maintain their regular feeding and potty schedules and offer lots of love, enrichment, and companionship throughout the day and night. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I tailor each visit to their pet’s routine and comfort level. This can include daily walks, fresh food and water, playtime, litter box or yard cleanup, medication administration if needed, and overnight stays for pets who do best in their familiar surroundings. I make sure each pet feels safe, happy, and relaxed — and I keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every animal with the same care and devotion I give my own — because they deserve nothing less.
About: Hello! I am Victoria. I am going to school part-time for Business Management and work full time on 3rd shift, which gives me time during the off hours to drop in and check on your pet as well as take them for a nice walk during the day. I’ve had and taken care of pets since I was 10, mainly dogs, lizards and hamsters. I have experience with dogs ranging from puppies to seniors and am comfortable giving medication as needed. I work 3rd shift. I am available between my sleep schedule, mid day to mid afternoon to care for your pet with drop-ins and take for walks, usually 20-30min. I care for the pet as they were my own. There’s no shortage of walks, scratches, love and cuddles. And any other enrichment the pet may need.
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my whole life. I had my own dog for 16 years, from childhood through her senior years, so I understand the responsibility, patience, and consistency dogs need at every stage of life. I regularly walked her and taught her commands like sit, shake, and roll over. As she got older and developed health conditions, I continued caring for her with patience and attention to her changing needs. I’ve also volunteered as a dog walker at the humane society and used to go with my mom when I was younger, which helped me become comfortable around dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I’m dependable, caring, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind. I’m home from college for the summer and looking for a fun, active way to spend my weekdays doing something I genuinely enjoy. I only work a few nights a week, so I have a pretty flexible daytime schedule for walks, drop-ins, and pet care. I’ve always loved being around dogs, so this feels like the perfect side job for me while I’m home. I enjoy getting outside, staying active, and spending time with animals, and I’d love to help give your pets some extra attention, exercise, and care during the day. When caring for pets, I always try to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. During walks I keep dogs closely leashed, pay attention to our surroundings, bring water and waste bags, and make sure not to walk too far especially in hot weather or with older dogs. For drop in visits I make sure pets have fresh food and water, get attention and play time, and that everything is clean and secure before I leave. I also know how important pets are to people, so I’d always keep owners updated and send pictures when I can.

About: I have been caring for dogs as long as I can remember. My grandmother used to raise hunting dogs when I was a little girl and I've always had at least two dogs at home! Growing up, I'd pet and house sit for neighbors, friends, and family. I've also worked at several doggy daycares and have cared for pups of all size, age, and ability. I would love to earn your trust when it comes to taking care of your fur babies- they're not just dogs, they're family. As a new mama, I am only working part time at the moment, so I will have plenty of time to care for your babies, too! I will ensure that your babies are treated like my own. TO me, this means that they won't need to wait long for potty breaks, will be fed at the appropriate time, and will always have a safe and calm environment while you are away.
About: I have walked dogs for neighbors and friends for decades and also owned dogs including 2 senior rescues. My experience is with all types of breeds and ages. A happy dog starts with an exercised dog and I love to get outside too! I am a bartender so I have a very flexible schedule and can do mornings, afternoons or evenings. I am also available for last minute bookings. As your dogs caretaker their happiness is my biggest concern. Fresh water, soft warm bed, food and plenty of exercise are in always provided and cuddles if wanted.
About: I have experience in a wide variety of animal care (having worked at my local wildlife sanctuary). Not only am I experienced with dogs and cats, I am also experienced with special needs pets and administering medication. I am currently searching for full time employment, but as of right now I am very flexible! Once a do acquire employment, I am still flexible but will update my availability! I can follow instructions to the letter, and offer enrichment activities such as walks or playtime. During overnights, I will follow house safety procedures as well as be attentive to your pet throughout the night. I am experienced in special needs pets and administering medication.
About: I’ve dogsat and catsat for neighbors and family friends for years! I’m an animal lover that’s responsible, organized, and caring for any of your pet’s needs. I have my own kitty at home, and spent most of my younger life caring for a dog. I’m a teacher on summer break so I’m wide-open for pet care except for a few trips I’m taking over the summer (contact me for more details). I will treat your pet like my own- with care, patience, and compassion. I respect the homes of the people I petsit for (no touching any personal belongings) and communicate with the owners to keep them in the know!
“Judy has always been reliable and available to my schedule changes. My dog always gets a good walk in while I am gone during the day. Hopefully will be able to do a boarding later this summer! Have recommended her on the Rover app to others looking for dog walkers. Look forward to continuing with Judy into the future 😊”
About: I’ve been a dog owner since 10 years old and have not gone without mans best friend since! I currently live on 23 acres in the country and long walks and chasing balls packs in most of the day with my 4 dogs Jetta, Odie, Ruby and Rowley. All dogs are dog friendly and well mannered. Graduating puppy classes to canine good citizen classes, plus dabbling in agility and herding. I currently work Weekends Friday-Sunday and my week is filled with lots of outdoor time on my hobbies farm. Lots of free time during the week helps me have fun with my animals and enjoy the sunshine. All my pets are cat and dog friendly and have full freedom of the property. New comers are always on a 12 foot leash during playtime and walks, unless E-collar trained. When first meeting owners I go over your dogs recall manners and slowly introduce them to the pack on a long property walk. This helps incorporate pack leadership and expelling energy at the same time.
About: Since I was little I have always loved animals, I feel that I have a unique connection with them. From the age of 10. In Ecuador, I was taking care of dogs. Neighbors have trusted me for the attention I gave to their pets, for playing with them, etc. But since I arrived in the United States I have not been able to continue with that hobby. When I had my dogs I took care of them every day. I gave them food in the morning and at night, I took them for walks and we played a lot with them. On weekends I washed them. Another thing I would like you to know is that my first language is Spanish, I don't speak it but I understand it a little more. I hope that's not a problem. And it would be my first time, walking dogs here in the United States I give food and water on time. I walk them, play a little and keep everything clean. I tell the owner how it goes with photos.
About: I have had dogs my entire life. I routinely care for friends' pets & treat them like my own. I walk daily in all types of weather. The company & adventure a dog adds to walking is pure joy for me! I have my own Architectural Residential Design business which allows for a flexible schedule. Getting out for a walk is a must to get relief from computer time! I am only available for dog walking at this time but am willing to consider other care that may be needed. I believe I will form great relationships with my clients!
About: I worked for the humane society for 1 year and there I worked with a range of dogs, including pits, puppies, seniors, special needs, and ‘behavioral’ dogs. I also know training to an extent! No dog is too much for me! This is my full-time job, along with taking care of my own animals at home! I have a very flexible schedule and I am willing to work with any needs and I can do overnights. In my home, my dogs have electric collars to make sure they do not run off. I also keep an eye on them while they’re outside. They are fed on a schedule and also walked one on as well. My cats are also fed on a scheduled, daily litter box changes, and of course play time just like my dogs. In a client’s home I will do what they prefer so that they’re comfortable with me! I am responsible and respectful of others property and items, as one should be!
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels — from energetic puppies to laid-back seniors. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or administering medications, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I understand how important routine, patience, and positive attention are to your pet’s well-being. I’ve also worked with shy or reactive dogs, and I’m comfortable following any special instructions to make sure your pup feels safe and loved while you’re away. My schedule is currently wide open, so I’m flexible and ready to accommodate your dog’s needs — whether it’s daily walks, last-minute bookings, or ongoing care. I’m available weekdays, weekends, and holidays. Let’s find a time that works best for you and your pup! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always keep dogs on-leash during walks (unless in a secure, off-leash area with your permission), avoid unsafe routes, and stay alert to other animals or hazards. I closely follow your instructions and routines to keep your pet feeling secure and cared for.

We highly recommend him, and would certainly use his services anytime.”

“Kota took on my 13 week old puppy and I am so pleased with how well my puppy did at her home! Kota snuggled and loved and cared for her like she was her own! She communicated daily and sent the cutest pictures! I give my highest recommendation to her! So much better than a kennel when you need boarding! Your pet will be welcomed into their home and treated like a family member!”
