“Hannah is fantastic. Low-key loves and her loves her. Excuse me one thing though Loki is an English cream golden retriever. I’m not sure whether it was pilot error on my part when I put in what type of doggie is or not, but if it can be changed. It should be changed to an English cream, golden retriever”


“Madelyn is very professional and thoughtful. There were really hot days while we were gone, she adjusted the walk time to account for the hot pavement saving our dogs paws 🐾! Thank you so much! We will be booking with you in the future!”


“Cynthia responded quickly to a last minute request for a weeklong daily commitment! And did a great job walking Joy (I can only assume, no complaints from the doggy)”


About: I am an experienced, trustworthy & dependable pet sitter, providing attentive and loving care to your pets in your absence. I have a great love for animals that started in my childhood taking care of our family pets. I take pride in being a caring and friendly pet sitter and I look forward to developing a trusting relationship with you and your family pets. I am recently retired with lots of energy and time and I maintain a 5 star customer review on Rover. I play & exercise with your pets to maintain their physical and mental health. I administer medication and I am very comfortable with cats, you can ensure their litter box is clean and food/water bowls are full. I provide daily communication and pictures to my clients and a summary at the end of my session. I have a pet first aid kit and I also carry my own pet insurance I am recently retired (young) with lots of energy. Instead of overnight stays, I will provide 3 visits a day to your home averaging at least one hour per visit. My 1st visit is around 7:00 am, 2nd visit is midafternoon-and 3rd is an evening visit. However, I am available 24/7 during your absence for any reason or request. I I am very energetic and have a soft tone of voice which is very soothing and relaxing for animals. I always request a “meet and greet” first with you and your animals just to make sure you’re comfortable and go over pertinent information, because I understand that these are your precious pride and joys. Along with this I will keep your home clean, collect mail/packages, water plants and make sure that your home and pets are safe and well cared for.

About: I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to older animals requiring more delicate attention. My responsibilities have included feeding, bathing, administering basic care, and cleaning up after them to ensure a clean and comfortable environment. I understand the unique needs that come with different life stages and am attentive, patient, and committed to making each pet feel safe and well cared for. Although I currently work two jobs and will be starting cosmetology school in the fall, I am fully committed to providing the highest level of care for your pets. Their well-being and comfort are my top priority, and I take pride in being reliable, attentive, and loving with every animal I care for. You can trust that your pets will be in safe, capable, and compassionate hands. I am attentive to detail and able to follow specific instructions and directions carefully to ensure the safety and well-being of your pet at all times.

About: I’ve grown up with pets of all kind! I have family, friends, and co-workers that all trust me with their pets when they are away. I have taken dog training classes with my own dog, which taught me a lot. I am here to help your furry family members however I can! Please reach out with any availability questions! (: I currently work Monday-Thursday, so most of my availability will fall on Fri-Sun. However, with enough notice I can be flexible for your pets needs. If you are close enough to my place of work, I am happy to visit for your animals potty breaks on my own break time. I am also happy to do evening walks during weekdays. I have a spacious apartment for myself, my dog, and my cat. I will only be boarding feline friends at this time. My cat is very friendly/outgoing and would love some friends to come and visit! I will happily play, brush, feed, or whatever is needed to give your cat a great stay!

About: Since I could open my eyes, there has been a dog in front of them. Growing up, my family bred and raised AKC yellow labs. I also worked for a horse/dog breeder, helping take care and market Aussie puppies. I also have experience with senior dogs. My senior lab lost all function in his hind end towards the end of his life and I was his primary care giver. Senior care was the hardest and most fulfilling job I’ve had. I am currently in school to become a veterinary technician and I have been working in a clinic setting for almost a year now. I am taking a break from the clinic to focus on school and enjoy my summer. Send your furry friends my way!❤️🐾 I’m doing some other little side jobs but I am free otherwise. I have school that I need to attend to daily. I was working at a veterinary clinic but I am now taking a break to focus on school and enjoy the summer. I am also offering nail trims for an extra charge ;) I have two dogs at my house that are not friendly to other dogs. This means that I will be strictly keeping dogs at owners houses, streets, towns, etc. and there will be no chance of interaction between my dogs and any other dogs ☺️

“Amir was wonderful with my pup! He was very communicative and flexible. He also sent me a lot of pictures and I really appreciate that.I will definitely be requesting his services again.”


About: Hi! I’m Jordan. (often known by “Jo”) I am well versed in animal welfare. I have 6+ years working in professional dog care. I grew up in a house full of mastiffs. Then began my love of dogs, and ever since, I’ve cared for just about every breed imaginable. My care is special because I take special attention to details others might not notice or understand - my understanding of dog behavior and psychology are especially valuable in caring for the overall well-being of your pet. Some of my experience includes being a kennel technician, dog walker, overseeing doggy-daycare with a blend of many dogs large and small, administering medications, raising puppies, senior dog care, walking dogs with reactivity, accommodating disabled/special needs dogs, — & more. I live on a farm and look after pigs, goats, chickens, ducks and our two livestock guardian dogs. I like to stay busy and I don’t mind getting dirty. I also clean up! :) Overall, the most important thing to me is that the quality of the care I provide equals a positive and uniquely curated experience for each animal I work with. As I no longer have a dog of my own, I extend my ultimate love and service to every animal I care for. I am fully committed to this career and eager to continue building clientele that aligns with what my current skillset offers. Ask me about my availability! Depending on your pet’s specific needs, I’ll adjust my routine accordingly. For example, if your dog is a working breed who might need lots of stimulation, I’d take it outdoors for trail runs and put together scent puzzles to keep them engaged. If your dog is reactive, we’d avoid triggers and keep potential triggers at a safe distance. I’ll adhere to your normal routine as much as I can so that your pets feel as comfortable as possible. It’s important to give dogs outside enrichment, and I love staying active. Also, although I am not a trainer, I have ample experience in working with dogs to help modify and correct unfavorable behavior.

About: I've watched dogs and cats for years and really enjoy it. I've always bonded and taken care of animals since I was a little boy. I work remotely and from home for the majority of the week. I have a lot of free time throughout the day as well as evenings. I care for all pets as if they're my own. I provide undivided attention and meet the needs that are presented to me on each occasion.

About: I've taken care of dogs of all shapes and sizes; dog sitting, walking and feeding. I have owned multiple dogs in my life from puppies to seniors. My schedule is currently open Friday-Sunday afternoon for in pet home sitting, drop ins and walks. During the week I'm avaliable Tuesdays and Thursday between 12pm-5pm for drop ins and walks only. I can do in client home care only. I like to focus on animals exercise and play; ball throwing in the backyard or long walks (or short walks for the small or senior dogs) I can crate your animal if necessary and I love giving treats and positive praise. If they like a good brush out I'd be happy to do that as well.

About: My primary reason for dog sitting is simply because I love spending time with animals. I just moved back to the area and am looking forward to continuing working with Rover and making some new 4-legged friends:) Dogs that I am sitting can spend their days lounging around with me, playing in the yard, going for walks and other fun outings when appropriate. I know that every dog is different and has different physical and emotional needs. I will make sure they're getting their individual doggie needs met as well as shower them with plenty of love and attention while you are away. I have been around animals my whole life as well as raised an amazing 13 year Goldendoodle. Also, I spent 2 years working with Paws To Freedom assisting in Service Dog Training. In addition, my love for animals as lead me to volunteering at local shelters and fostering when needed. I have plenty of experience with a variety of animals and have taken cared for dozens of dogs while owners were away. Most importantly though, I have a genuine love and respect for animals emotional and physical wellbeing:) My schedule is very flexible and I am pretty much home full-time most days of the week. I can easily accommodate advanced scheduling and can sometimes accommodate last minute as well. This is however, very part-time for me so my schedule may fill up quickly at times. In my home pets are part of the family. They get treated with the love and respect just like any other member of the household.

About: Growing up with dogs has been a constant joy in my life! While my current travel schedule makes owning one impossible, I’m thrilled at the opportunity to care for yours. I’m full of energy, which dogs seem to pick up on—we always make great buddies! If your pup loves outdoor adventures, I’d be delighted to take them for a run or explore the great outdoors together. Rest assured, I treat every pet like family, following your house rules to ensure they feel at home and loved while in my care. I’m currently working part-time online, which gives me the flexibility to dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pet. My schedule allows me to adapt to their needs, whether that’s playtime, walks, or just keeping them company throughout the day. I love incorporating outdoor activities like walks or runs into my routine, especially for energetic dogs who enjoy being active. For pets that prefer a quieter pace, I make sure they get the cuddles, attention, and care they need. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so it fits naturally into my day-to-day life! My sister has two lively standard poodles, and I’ve cared for them many times while she’s away. They live on a farm, so they’re lucky to have plenty of space to roam and explore. My parents also have a small dog and a cat, both of whom I’ve looked after during weekends or family vacations. Additionally, I’ve had the pleasure of house-sitting for friends with their adorable cats, ensuring they’re well cared for while their owners are away.

She has also fostered a cat and a rabbit, caring for them until they were able to find their forever homes. She treated those foster animals as if they were her own and I know she would treat any dog she was dog sitting that way! I absolutely, hands down would choose Erykah as my number one top recommendation for anyone looking for a dog sitter!!!”
