“As always, Allison always does such a fantastic job for us! She went the extra mile this time when my husband and I forgot to change our Farmer's Dog order before it had shipped and we were taking our dog on a camping trip. Food was to arrive the day we were leaving and Allison came over after we had left and the food arrived and made sure it was put in our freezer, so Mr. Koal would have plenty of food waiting for him when we got back. She is so dependable and reliable! Thanks, Allison, for going above and beyond for our dog Koal!”
“I was relieved that I found someone that cared for my cats almost as much as I do. I got daily updates keeping me up to date with their eating habits. Thanks again for a great job.”
About: I’ve been a reliable dog sitter for family and friends for 25 years. I’m excited to meet new dog friends and enjoy making memories with your pet! I am a flexible stay at home mom with one dog of my own. I am able to assist families on a short notice or plan ahead! I have one dog in my home that is friendly with other dogs. We have a large fenced in backyard for play. We also have space for crated dogs.
“Kathryn is lovely. Our kitties responded well to her calm demeanor- even our most shy little cat would sometimes venture out to see her when she did her check-ins. We enjoyed getting photo updates from her each day. She is reliable and friendly- we were very pleased to find her on Rover!”
“Jessica is absolutely amazing!! She sent updates and pictures every day that I was away (2 weeks)! I know my boys had such a good time with her while I was gone- she played with them and took them on walks every day. I was completely at ease knowing how well they were being taken care of. Definitely book her if you’re looking for someone to watch your fur babies! 🐶”
“Natasha was truly amazing! She worked with us on short notice and went above and beyond to accommodate us and our animals during the week of our wedding. I would absolutely recommend Natasha, and I will be reaching out again the next time we need someone to look after our cats.”
“I have booked Jazzy twice and she has been amazing with my two cats ! She communicated with me when checking on them, sent me pictures, and made sure that they were taken care of. Will definitely be booking her again!”
“This was my first time using Ashleigh’s services and she was wonderful! She is very thorough and organized.. She was very attentive to my pets needs and made sure everything was done as I had asked. My kitties have some quirks but she handled perfectly.”
“My cat was very calm and trusting with Grace from her first introduction even though Spider is now older and more cautious. She therefore allowed Grace to brush her during visits which was my key request. ++cj”
About: I've had dogs since I was a kid and made Dog Care my responsibility since my mother worked night shift and the care and responsibility was completely up to me at a very young age. I've defiantly been blessed to have had several dogs in my life and all of them have lived a long time. Newest family member just turned one and the puppy phase is very detailed oriented. She came into our lives after our oldest passed away at 19. So from young to old I've been able to care from them all. My schedule is open and set for studying. I plan to attend school out of state in the near future. Nothing is set in stone at the moment so other than keeping my face in the book I have freedom and time on my side Dog care experience combined with my time available for the needs of the dog should help your dog feel loved and cared for in the absence of its owner.
About: I have took care of dogs and cats since i was 9 years old. I have always had animals in my house and I love to take care of them. I have looked after my friend’s and family’s cats and dogs both. I am free most of the time! I want to find a way to help others by also doing something I love which is taking care of dogs. I watch after my dogs daily and would love to share the love I have for my dogs to yours. I do not have a fenced in yard, however i do own leashes that I would take dogs out on in order to insure nothing happens to your fur babies!
“My puppy loves spending time with Lori. Lori has a sweet spirit and she is a special lady. She is wonderful with my 12 week old fur baby. They formed an instant bond. She met us ahead to be sure to get the details of the drop-in. Lori sent photos and videos of her progress with our puppy while we were away. She is very knowledgeable about training our rambunctious little guy to obey her commands. We are very impressed and can tell the difference she is making. We can't wait until we see her again. She is amazing!”
“Leah did a great job. She communicated well, sent us photos, and any necessary updates. It was a relief to find someone who could successfully medicate our elderly cat while we were away, and also care for our 3 other cats. She played with the cats, as well!”
About: What sets me apart is my experience with dogs of all ages, including training puppies and caring for seniors. I provide loving, personalized, and reliable care every time.
