About: Hello I’m Ronnie! And I’ve been taking care of animals for about 6 years but have always helped it been around them since I was 12. Here are a list of animals I’ve taken care of: -reptiles (snakes, bearded dragons and small liazards. But I am comfortable to care for any other reptile as well ) -dogs (both elderly and puppies) -cats ( kittens inculded and also ones with behavioral issues) I’m always open to take care of any kind of pet with with ever need like giving medicine or changing diapers. I would love to be able to take care of your fur baby wants and needs so you can be able to accomplish whatever life’s busy schedule brings you! I currently work part time five days outta the week but have free time ID love to use to take care of your fur baby! So you can take care of yourself and your schedule:) I have many toys and space in my area for pets to be able to walk and play with no worry of anything being in the way. I also bring treats and small pet snacks for a rewards for after walks and such!

And, the daily pictures she took were of professional quality. Highly recommend.”

About: Hi, we are Scott and Jenn. We are experienced dog people, but we don't have a dog right now, so we are available to give your pup(s) our undivided attention. Dogs have been a central part of both our lives from growing up with dog "siblings" to fostering and adopting dogs of various breeds, ages and temperaments. Big and small, from high-energy young pups to sweet old seniors. After our Doberman passed in 2022, we made the difficult decision not to get another dog right away. Since Scott retired, we spend about six months a year traveling in our RV to visit family across the country. It has been a truly wonderful experience; however, life without dogs isn't right! Rover offers the perfect opportunity for us to enjoy spending time with dogs, while providing you peace of mind and your pets all the love and attention they deserve! My work is flexible and often portable, so I can be available just about any time. If I get your request before I go to bed, I can be at your home by 10am the next day. We treat dogs like family. A friend once told us “If reincarnation is real, I want to come back as one of your dogs”. We spend lots of time doing enrichment activities with the dog we sit for. We also really enjoy walking, so we would absolutely love to take your dog for long walks!
“Laura is so good with our doggies! They love what she visits!”
“Sarah is the best! Always takes excellent care of my puppy and is so amazing about communicating!! We’re always happy when she can stop by and play for awhile. :)”
“Becky was a lifesaver with a last minute request! This was our first experience using Rover and we feel so lucky to have found Becky. We enjoyed the updates during her visits and returned home to 2 very well cared for doggos. She even brought in our mail! ?”
“Katie did a great job with our herd. She was attentive and communicated well, giving us confidence that both our dogs were in good hands in our absence. They definitely made a new friend! We will absolutely use her again in the future. Much thanks Katie!”
