About: I have been pet sitting for 5 years and have taken care of my own pets since I was 14. I have taken care of puppies and kittens that age 8 weeks and older. I’ve also taken care of an elderly dog in the past. I have trained a service dog in the past which means I can practice with your puppy or dog to remember commands. I don’t work. I am a veteran who is home most of the time. I take care of my own puppies everyday. They are little dogs at max of20 pounds. I have dogs at home who spend the day wandering the house and have ability to go outside whenever. I love to play with dogs and to walk and cuddle with dogs who are interested in those things.
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.

“Cannot recommend Maddy enough. She was very kind and easy to work with. It was so comforting knowing how much she cared for our pets while we were away for the week in Mexico. she sent regular updates, pictures and videos! She paid extra attention to detail and made sure to ask if our pets had any specials needs / routines. Our cats were very relaxed when we returned which was a sign of excellent care while we were gone. Will definitely be rebooking with Maddy for our next trip! :)”

About: Hello everyone, my name is Kara. I've been around animals my entire life and have grown up with both dogs and cats. I have a love for animals, and will do anything to help them. I have one pup named Bee, and she’s 3 years old. I offer drop in visits for both dogs and cats of any age, and I also offer dog walking for all ages of dogs and puppies. I do wanna state that no matter what service you book with me I'll keep in contact the entire time of service, and will send photo updates. I can not accommodate overnight sittings as I have a stepdaughter who I care for while my boyfriend works 3rd shift, but also because I have a pup of my own who can’t be left alone overnight. If you have any questions please contact me, I hope to see you and your pets soon. Thanks for booking with me, I appreciate your business. ❤ God bless you! I currently do gig work full time so I pretty much have open availability and can certify that I’m a great choice to take care of your fur babies. I make sure that when out on a walk that dogs are properly harnessed, and that I follow the owners instructions for each family pet.
“Emily was amazing! So friendly and our cats all LOVED her, which is crazy because normally they aren’t all keen on new people. She was prompt and updated us immediately with several pictures and how they were doing. Thanks, Emily!”

I bring with me lots of love and have been trained for many, many years with martial arts of various kinds, including MMA, and a previous competitive deadlifter- so your pet is safe with me for walks and the like. I can drop-in, walk, or just pet-sit! Thank you! Please call on me when needed, and I look forward to meeting you and your fur-babies! I cannot be around cigarette, vape or marijuana smoke, so I am not available for homes where this has been, but, could still take your dog for a walk if I am only outside.

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.
“Jennifer was great! She was willing to watch our dog last minute and was flexible and he had a great time! She kept me posted all day how he was doing. Would definitely recommend!”

“Very last minute booking that she was very responsive to. She was flexible and patient in integrating her dogs, who Zuma loved. Zuma can be a nervous girl but Arianna really helped her feel comfortable. She's also great at training and her dogs are well behaved, which is helpful for a nervous dog like Zuma. I got lots of updates and pictures, she even took Zuma on a nice hike/run and she was well tuckered out after. An amazing price for the time and dedication she put into hosting Zuma. Will definitely use again if I'm in the area!”
“Liloo loves Scott and his squad of pups. She was antsy and anxious when we first dropped her off but on a subsequent 2 week boarding stay, she blossomed! Scott sent regular updates (complete with photos) of how she was doing: from sulking and guarding the oven in the kitchen, to letting loose playing, to napping with the other doggos. I send Liloo to Scott for day care now and shes so happy frolicking with the dogs and enjoying treats!”
“Becky and family are the perfect dog sitters! I can’t explain how grateful I am for how well they cared for my Winnie! I’d be lucky to have her help me again! Bonus: the location in which she lives is a dogs dream :)”

“We’ve used Sarah twice now for dog walking Maxwell. She’s been very accommodating with coming when we needed her to so Maxwell doesn’t go too long without a walk. We’ve gotten pictures and reports on how it went. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their furry family member.”
“Kelly is an outstanding. She is detailed and attentive with my pups behavioral problems. She was timely and went above and beyond. My dog has been so much happier lately and I have no worries with trusting her with the care of my dog and plan on rebooking often.”

Madisyn is very easy to talk with, and it is very clear how much she loves animals, especially cats & dogs. She also sent some really great photos of Corrie when she was here. She is very trustworthy, and a great person to help out if needed, thanks Madisyn!!”
