“Jessica was fantastic with my 2 dogs. I appreciated that she took some time for visits before my trip to give the dogs opportunity to meet her and get used to her being in our home. I opted for drop in visits during the day while I was gone. She was prompt and I trusted her being in my home. This was my first time using Rover and what a wonderful first experience. I felt totally at ease and comfort leaving my dogs in her care for 5 days. I am pretty sure when they are looking out the window now, they are wondering if she's coming! 😀”

“Skylar was so amazing with our cat Sookie!! She is so sweet and sent very detailed updates and plenty of adorable pics/vids of Sookie. So glad we found her and already plan on using her again for our next trip coming up 🥰”

About: Ever since I started having my own dogs, I’ve learned so much through personal experience and doing my own research. I’m not a professional, but I know how to truly care for dogs with love and dedication. I’m looking to turn this into more than just a job. I want it to be a meaningful career something I genuinely enjoy, love, and feel passionate about. Taking care of dogs has always brought me joy, and I would be grateful for the chance to do what I love every day. Safety and comfort are my top priorities when caring for dogs at home. I make sure the environment is clean, secure, and pet-friendly, with no access to anything harmful. I pay close attention to each dog’s behavior, needs, and routines to ensure they feel safe, calm, and loved. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or rest, I always provide a peaceful and caring space where dogs can relax and feel at home. Their well-being always comes first.
About: Welcome! I really love meeting new pets, getting to know their personalities and making sure your pet is 100% happy and comfortable. We can arrange a meeting with you and your pet(s) to make sure we get to know schedules, dispositions, allergies and other things I should be aware of for the full, loving care of the pet. I have been dog sitting with many friend’s dogs for at least 25 years. I can provide care, attention, and of course plenty of happy walks. I am even able to stay over at night so they don’t get lonely, if need be! Make your reservation soon! My schedule is flexible but if you want to lock a schedule down - especially during the holidays please do! I have a flexible schedule for the most part. Prefer after 11 am. any day of week for dtop-ins & available for house/dog/cat sitting at your location. Pets se part of the family Currently I cannot sit at the house I am renting. I can take dog or cat to a nearby park or walk your neighborhood. Flexible for your convenience.
About: I have owned and/or watched all types of dogs since I was young. Friends and families would trust me to watch their dogs over long weekends or on vacations. I work from 8:00-5:00 Monday-Friday, but I do have a lunch break if necessary to check in on your pet! I have weekends off and willing to drive. Unfortunately, I live in an apartment and cannot watch pets in my home. I would love to know your dogs habits and any special tips in order to make your pet as happy while you are away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for over 20 years. I have two fur babies, Tucker and Jax, so I truly understand how important trustworthy pet care is. I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. I work from home during the week until 4 p.m., so I’m mostly available Friday–Sunday. I can often be flexible on weekdays too, just reach out and I’ll do my best to make it work! Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I make sure they feel secure in their own home and give them plenty of love, pets, and attention so they can relax while you’re away.
About: Have always had a love for animals. Cared for injured & ailing animals also. Helped deliver puppies, kittens, bottle fed, administered medication, cared for many animals . I am currently available full time. My schedule is pretty flexible right now. Would prefer to watch your pet in their home at this time. I have a Pet friendly home. I have a fully fenced in yard. Crates availabe if needed. Allowed on couches and bed. Goal to make your pet feel at home and safe.
About: I've spent decades as a dog dad, raising springer spaniels, golden labs, and black labs – all active, intelligent breeds that need both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I also babysat a beagle every summer for years, so I'm comfortable with different energy levels and personalities. What sets me apart is my empathic approach and genuine understanding of what dogs need. I can read their body language and moods, whether they're anxious, playful, or just need a calm presence. Being retired means I have an open schedule and plenty of time for walks, play sessions, and just hanging out together – your dog won't be squeezed into a busy day. I know that every dog is an individual with their own quirks and routines, and I respect that. Your dog will get my full attention and the kind of care I've given my own pets for years. Being retired means pet care can be my daily routine! I have a completely open schedule with no other work commitments. My days are flexible and built around whatever your pet needs. The beauty of retirement is that I'm not trying to squeeze pet care into lunch breaks or evenings – I can give your pets the time and attention they deserve, whenever they need it. My priority is maintaining your pet's routine and keeping them safe and comfortable. Pets thrive on routine and familiarity. I'll stick to your pet's exact schedule – mealtimes, medications, favorite activities, where they like to sleep – so the only thing that changes is that you're not there. I'm empathic to how pets handle change, so I take time to let them adjust to me at their own pace. I'll treat your home like my home and send you updates so you have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I'm a lawyer with one puppy who is my best friend! There will always be tons of snuggles and games here! I love all dogs and have always enjoyed puppy sitting. I have a full job during the week, but when I'm home we play! If your dog is ok with short periods in the kennel while boarding, that is is preferable, but not necessary! I have one mini dachshund puppy one year old and he loves to play! I have a small unfenced yard for potty breaks, but we can go in walks or to the dog park if your baby likes to run!
“Travis was excellent. A true dog lover. Our dogs are Leary of strangers but they both took to Travis immediately. Travis was very responsive, respectful, knowledgeable about animals, and also inquired about if there was anything we wanted done. Gave immediate updates with pictures. Walked the dogs played with them. Wonderful young man. Would definitely recommend Travis.”

About: I have always had dogs growing up in many sizes. With my most recent dog, i worked with him to get over his past abuse issues and was able to train him many other things! I am a first year student at Lake Area Technical College, and am studying agricultural. With this I have classes throughout the day with many in between breaks where I can tend to your pet! I will treat your house like mine and along with your pets. I will make sure your home looks the same if not better than when I arrive.
“Samantha took great care of my two cats who are not very used to strangers. They were well cared for and were very content when I returned. Absolutely zero complaints and I would highly recommend Samantha.”

About: I’ve always had dogs in my life since I was a kid. I even used to show my dog in 4H dog shows! I love any dogs small and big! I’m currently working part time only so I would love to take care of pets during the day or even over night when I can! I have a pretty big yard and can take dogs on walks when they need. I can let them out/take on walks when they need!
