About: I grew up around horses and dogs, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I now balance a desk-based career with pet sitting and dog walking, which is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. I’ve cared for dogs with a range of personalities and routines, and I aim to make the experience easy and stress-free for both you and your pet. When I lived in Colorado, I went through extensive training with my own dog, which gave me a strong foundation in structure, consistency, and reading behavior. I now have the best boy, Scruff, and I bring that same level of care and awareness to every dog I work with. What I Provide: * Reliable, consistent care! * Walks and visits tailored to your dog’s energy level and routine. * Updates and photos so you always know how things are going. * Careful attention to behavior, mood, and any changes. * Respectful, clean care in your home and for your pet’s space. * Happy follow detailed instructions, routines, and preferences. * Will adapt to your dog’s positive and negative markers and work with cues that are already familiar to your family. What Sets Me Apart: * Lifelong experience with a variety of pets with a strong instinct for animal behavior. * Hands-on training experience, with a focus on structure and consistency. * Experience caring for a senior dog, so I understand patience, routine, and trust. * Calm, observant approach that works well for both energetic and more sensitive dogs. * Clear, consistent communication so you feel confident while you’re away. I’m very selective about who cares for my own dog, Scruff, and hold myself to that same standard! I’m always happy to do a meet and greet to make sure it’s a great fit for everyone! I currently work part-time, which allows me to maintain a flexible and dependable schedule for pet care. I’m able to accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits, and I prioritize consistency for pets who thrive on routine. Because I have control over my day-to-day schedule, I’m intentional about the bookings I take on to ensure each pet receives reliable, attentive care. This also allows me to be responsive and flexible when needs shift or plans change. I prioritize safety, consistency, and making sure your pet feels comfortable in their environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to your routines and instructions so things feel as normal and stress-free as possible, whether that’s feeding, walks, or any specific preferences your dog is used to. I’m mindful of the details that matter, like secure leashing, safe entry and exit, and leaving your home exactly as I found it. I also keep a close eye on behavior and energy levels, and I’ll communicate anything notable so you’re never left wondering how things are going. If caring for a pet in my home, I provide a calm, clean, and structured environment where pets can settle in comfortably. My dog, Scruff, is well-trained, and I ensure any interactions are safe, gradual, and a good fit for both dogs, though I don’t do introductions without pet parents first! At the end of the day, I understand how much trust this takes. I treat every pet and home with the same level of care and respect that I expect for my own.

“We are very happy with Mia! She was punctual and pleasant at our meet-and-greet. She took our dog for two walks at the times requested and fed her. I felt like we left Pepper in good hands. I recommend her, and will definitely hire her again.”

“Kathleen has been a lifesaver, stepped in at the very last minute after I began fostering a dog and needed coverage for a long work day 2x a week. Raider obviously adores her and she is prompt, thorough and very loving with Raider. I also scheduled an extra visit when I had an unexpected meeting and she was able and willing! She has had to roll with some issues as he is a new foster, out of shelter for 6 months and we are just getting a routine down. Thank you Kathleen!”

“David is great with our dog and our dog loves him! He is also punctual and polite. We definitely recommend David to walk your dog!”

Maggie N.

“Maria is wonderful and so personable!!! Bella loved her right away and that brought so much comfort to us! Maria kept us informed everyday including a photo. We highly recommend Maria and definitely will request her in the future!”

“Judy is the best! I had hip surgery & needed someone to walk my dog Roxy. On very short notice, I sent a request to Judy on Rover & she quickly responded that she could help me out. She came the next day & when Roxy & I met her, you could just tell how much Judy truly loves dogs! She got down on the ground & Roxy was all over her with kisses. I always said that dogs know what people are genuine dog lovers & who are not. Roxy knew right away that Judy was the walker for her. I totally agree! Judy’s been walking Roxy for over 2 weeks now…she is always on time & is constantly in contact with me. I highly recommend her!”

About: I really enjoy being outdoors and walking my dogs regularly, since I was able to take a few steps I've enjoyed walking dogs. I have always felt I have a good connection with animals in general (except spiders). I understand you must be patient when taking dogs for a walk as some dogs may be older and have different needs. I've had dogs as small as chihuahuas to yellow labs. I volunteer at animal services and Born Free animal shelter when I can. I really care about the well being of dogs and their happiness. I can bring treats on our walk or any toy they enjoy. I am very athletic so I have no problem running with the dog(s) either. I understand the importance of being able to trust that your animals are in safe hands♥️ I teach at a local elementary school so afternoons work best for me! I’m available any time of day on the weekends. My husband is home during the day and is able to help out as well if your baby is at our house The safety of your pet and of mine are my number one priority. If I’m taking care of your baby at my house, The animals will not ever be left alone, especially if it’s a new introduction. And if I’m coming to you, any and all detailed directions are very much appreciated.

About: I’ve been able to walk most dogs. I have walked and played with dogs that are agreeable and friendly to new arrangements with other people in their lives. I have plenty of time to provide service to your pets and play with them as well. Please know I help them feel comfortable with strangers as long as they are able to handle new people in there life. I am able to walk and play with your dog on your schedule. I am able to sit in your home at an agreeable time with you

About: My best friends have always been my animals. I was lucky enough to be raised around horses, cows, donkeys, goats, dogs, and of course cats. I have a large ranch style property where we go for walks throughout the day. An initial meet and greet is appreciated so your kids know me and realize they are safe and one of your dirty shirts is always appreciated so they have your scent. I'm also licensed and insured. I'm a homebody and have a ranch style property. I'm up before the sun and start the day. The "kids" are fed and walked first thing and then we go for walks through the day. Its good exercise for all of us... and they can watch the horses. They live in the home like it's their own. I've been told they get excited when they know their mom and dad are dropping them off. I watch how they react and me and the kids go from there. The property is very large. I even have a fake fire hydrant in the back yard (which is pretty cute).The neighbors horses are always fun to watch and pet in the morning. It's very calm here.

About: Im good with pets, both cats and dogs. Im available to walk dogs in the morning and sometimes evenings. Im also available to pet sit or drop in to feed and give potty breaks! I look forward to meeting your pets! If you request me I’ll get back immediately to let you know whether I’m available and to arrange a meet and greet. I kindly expect the same, if you find another sitter a quick reply is greatly appreciated! 💗 I work anywhere from 25-50 hrs a week depending on the time of year. My schedule is flexible.However I am always available mornings. With advance notice I can be available as needed and rework my schedule. I will follow instructions precisely while caring for your pet. I have cats and always make sure they have clean food/water bowls, clean litter box and are fed appropriately. I’d love to have a dog but I’m a renter.

About: I grew up with 3 dogs and 3 cats in my childhood home. I have one old boy left from then, and I still help out in his senior years. I have groomed those three at home, and since moving into my own house, I dog sit small-large sized dogs, both in my own home and in clients homes. I regularly brush the dog’s teeth, trim nails, bathe, and brush their overcoat. I also take care of the grooming for my own two cats. I’ve grown up around all different types of animals, so I’m ready for any specific needs your pets have. I’m currently unemployed and dog sitting to make money, so I am free at all times of the day and night to care for your pets. I do not have a fenced in yard, but that’s no problem because I do not mind a little outside time to take them outside on the leash. I have a park down the street that I walk the dogs to so they can sniff around and stretch their legs. I can also do any extra food care, brushing, bathing, medication, or any needs you have from me. I can fit a crate if needed, but I don’t require any kind of crate.

About: I’ve taken care of my dogs as well as friends and neighbors for a long time. I love meeting new pets and looking after them! I am home from college for the summer so I am mostly available anytime and I will try my best to work with your schedule! I have a fenced backyard but also take my two dogs out to play around and let their zoomies out. They’re very friendly with other dogs and sometimes even like to swim with me!

About: Caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s something I love. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities and understand that every pet has unique needs. Whether it’s keeping up with an active pup, sticking to a feeding routine, or offering extra cuddles and reassurance, I’m dedicated to providing dependable, loving care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I genuinely enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so incorporating walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and plenty of love and attention into my day comes easily. I have a full-time job but allows rushes home to provide dependable care and make sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need to feel happy and comfortable. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any medications or special needs. I also make sure pets receive plenty of love, attention, and companionship while their owners are away. My goal is to keep pets happy, safe, and stress-free while giving pet parents peace of mind through regular updates and photos.

“Jeanice was great and came in clutch with our last minute request. Despite one of our dogs being nervous, she was able to coax her into going outside for a bathroom break!”

“Melissa has been so good to myself & my new little puppy, Bear! She is very flexible and communicates well- not only with updates (pictures & messages), but she is also able to provide input with any questions I may have. She is always attentive to Bear’s needs, and goes out of her way to spend the extra time with him that a puppy needs. She has made this experience easy and comfortable, so I have no worries leaving my puppy in her care. I would recommend Melissa over and over again!”
