Selena was a great pet sitter! I had a lot of questions as a first-time Rover user, and she was very quick to respond to all my communications. My cats were in great hands with her while we were out of town.

About: I’ve always had dogs when it came to growing up. My family thought it was only natural to have them! I grew up living amongst 5 Great Danes. I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds! I’ve had dogs that weigh almost twice as me, and dogs that can fit into purses. I have over 10 years of experience with reactive dogs, since my pittie is very selective of other dogs. I have over 15 years of experience with puppies and training them as well! I’m currently working full time Monday-Friday. 6:30-2:30. After that, I’m available for the rest of the day to let out, walk, feed, and take care of any pets. On the weekends, I am fully available, all day and all night! I care for my pets like they’re my own babies. We don’t have a fenced in yard, but I have one dog that is off leashed trained, and the other that must be on a leash at all times. Which means we go on walks around the property daily! I have an entire room dedicated to the bunnies, and the cat gets the whole house, along with the dogs.

Sierra did a great job dealing with my antisocial Sunny. She's a one person cat. When I got back she was mad at me but well fed and healthy. I appreciate the way Sierra followed my instructions.

About: Hi I’m Reise!! I am experienced with caring for cats, dogs, ferrets, birds, and hamsters. I have rescued quite a few furry friends over the years and found them amazing FUR-EVER homes! ❤️ I’m not looking to foster at this time but wouldn’t mind boarding a dog or two here and there while their people are on vacation or work trips! I could also do house visits as well as walking. I’m really down for anything and love animals. I have 2 dogs right now but I love animals so much it’s my passion to make a small difference and find animals close to home to work with and take on walks while their owner may be busy. I’m a stay at home mom, so when I say I have the free time I really mean it and would love to help. I hope you choose me to care for your pet, I really look forward to talking with and meeting you. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this!!! :) I am free all the time!!! I’m a stay at home mom. Sundays we usually have family time for a few hours and like to have breakfast all together.. other than that I am free! :) My dogs have a fenced in yard and run to ensure their safety while playing outside. It’s not that I feel my dogs are unsafe, but you never know how someone else’s dog walking by might react when there are dogs outside already. I use StarMark collars on my dogs, these collars guarantee that they won’t and can’t really slip away, these collars are great especially if your dog pulls, my dog used to pull a lot and I was able to get him to do great while walking. I love being able to work with dogs 1 on 1 at first so they can get learn to trust me and feel safe!! Both of my dogs are extremely friendly. Bear is the most gentle giant and Daisy is just the sweetest girl ever. I would love to get to know you & your animals.

About: I’m a certified veterinary technician who worked in the emergency department and intensive care unit for about three years at a multi specialty animal hospital. Prior to that, I worked as a certified veterinary assistant at a general animal practice for about two years. I have done some volunteer work on the side at a few different animal shelters and I have also fostered. I currently have two pets of my own that are spoiled and well taken care off. I am currently a student, so I do have some free time on my hands. I go to school on Mondays and Wednesdays, which leaves me wit my the rest of the week to care for your pets. I typically try to stick to the routine the owner already has in place for their pets. I know that consistency is important when having a pet.

About: My boyfriend and I have always had animals in our lives. Growing up he lived on a farm with dogs, cats, goats, pigs etc. and I have had dogs and cats my whole life. We currently have 2 beautiful Great Danes, a bunch of rabbits, outside kitties, and a chinchilla! Our dogs love people, small animals, and would love a bigger dog to run around with. We would love to cuddle with your fur babies, go for walks, or just play in the fenced yard! We currently work 4 days a week leaving Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday to watch and care for your animals. My boyfriend is an early riser and I’m a night owl, so you’re pet will have plenty of time to get the care they need. We have a 2 story house with lots of room for them to lay around and have their own space if needed. We also have a large backyard that is fenced off already for our dogs.

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family pets, working in a pet boarding/daycare facility and currently in Pet Grooming School. I am currently working full time as a dog walker and would love to spend time playing with, exercising your pets, and making sure that they are well cared for. I can assure you I will attend to and care for your dog or cat in the best possible manner. Fences and gates will always be triple checked to ensure no escapes. Leashes will be used if there is no fencing. They will always have water available and fed according to your schedule you have set for them. Pictures and updates are always available throughout the day to ensure the safety of your pet.

About: I am a Certified Veterinary Technician who loves pets of all species and sizes! I have 4 years of experience in the veterinary field with 2 years of veterinary technician schooling. I have had a dog since I was around 4 or 5 and ever since then I have loved animals beyond measure! I have pet sat for multiple people in my area. I can accurately feed, medicate, walk, bathe, bandage, recognize signs of emergency, perform CPR (in only the most extreme cases), etc for any pet needed I will soon be home a lot more often. While I do have to take care of my pets at home, I will be free most days through the week and I can do overnights on occasion. I am not comfortable bringing other pets into my home to meet my animals due to them being easily stressed. I will happily walk, spend the day with, snuggle your pets in your home or in public.

Laurel has a genuine warmth and steady presence that animals are naturally drawn to. She approaches every pet with patience and kindness, treating them like members of the family. Even in unexpected situations, she stays calm and solution-oriented, which gives you total peace of mind. Her professionalism, combined with her big heart, makes her not only a great caregiver but someone who truly makes both pets and their people feel valued and understood. Her flexibility with her schedule is what makes things so easy for us.
