About: Dogs have been apart of my life since I was a child. Life is so much better with a dog in it. I’ll walk, play, and love on them. As a pet sitter I can offer experience, training, a willingness to follow instructions and most of all, reliability. I’m currently working from home so I will be available when you need me I’m really flexible and try to work with you to make your fur babies stay less stressful for you and them I have a fenced in backyard and two fur babies to help keep company lots of love, playtime and attention will be given. we also have lots of toys. If need to be by themself and not around other dogs, that’s an option also. we love to also take walks if requested ❤️🦮🐕🦺🐈

About: My name is Brittany, I have recently transitioned to working from home. I have a very flexible schedule, which means that I have open availability for walks or drop-ins and will be able to be with your dogs the entire time they are in my care! While I have just started out on Rover, I am still an experienced animal caretaker. Previously I have worked with horses, dog sat in college as well as for family and friends. I treat all animals just like they are apart of my family, this means they sleep in the bed, are allowed on furniture, and are given plenty of love and affection. My dogs and I also love to go on outings to the park, hikes, biking, find water to play in, as well as walks around the neighborhood. I have experience with dogs of almost any size and would be happy to welcome your dog to my family while you are away. I work from home, so I have open availability. This means I can do walks or drop-ins whenever needed. If your dog is in my care while being boarded, at doggy daycare, or house-sitting, I will be with them the entire time! I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do have a long line to allow your dog freedom to play in the yard. In my home we have rest breaks around meal times, and dogs will be separated for meals and to have personal time to themselves. I do have kennels if your dog prefers to sleep in a kennel while in my care. But my two German Shepherds love other dogs and would be happy to invite other dogs into our home. In a client's home I will go off what their schedule is so they have their normal day. I will treat your home just as my own and will leave it in just as good if not better condition than what I found it.
About: I grew up around a variety of animals. From pigs to cows. Sheep, goats, rabbits, hamsters, dogs, cats, fish, and more. I’ve seen and cared for so many animals growing up with a farm in the country and living in suburbs during school time! I know animals are too good for humans. Therefore I will do anything I can to always care and help animals in need. I can confidently say your animals is in safe hands :) As a college student, tending for my animals is a big responsibility. Feeding and maintaining the happiness of my pets is a great joy in my life. It is just a task that comes with caring for any animals. It is always worth the responsibility. Having two cats in my home allows for me to clean the litter box, provide food daily, take my cats for time outside, and to provide them with endless petting sessions. A clean environment ensures the pets happiness and well being.
About: I’ve always been an animal lover. I have 5 dogs and 2 cats of my own. I’ve grown up around animals all my life and I know it can be hard sometime to watch them so that’s why chose to help you out. I want you be comfortable leaving your pet with someone that will love them as much as you do. I currently do daycare for two kids so I am at home majority of the day so I am willing to watch your pet during the day or even at night if that is what’s needed I have 2 acres of fenced in pastures and access to indoors. I have a mix of inside and outside dogs. At night they all come inside though.
