“Grace works patiently to gain the dog’s trust. Her questions demonstrate true care and concern. She ensures she is walking at the dog’s pace. Grace is professional, kind and considerate. I feel honored to have met her and trust her completely with my dog.”

About: I have owned and cared for animals for 40 years. I have been responsible for the daily care of dogs, horses, cats, and exotic birds as a horse groom and petsitter. I currently have 2 dogs and 2 senior cats of my own. I am currently working as a part time contractor doing software consulting work. My schedule is flexible and able to work around any pet care work I do. I also have over 10 years of experience in dog showing and have cared for both dogs and cats with a wide range of special needs. From senior pets and special diets to medical routines and individualized care, I understand how important it is to maintain consistency, patience, and compassion. I currently care for a diabetic senior cat and previously cared for my senior Pointer who required lifelong dietary management for bladder stones. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or requires extra attention, I’m committed to providing safe, loving, and reliable care tailored to their needs.

About: My passion for caring for animals started at a young age. I spent many hours volunteering at my local animal shelter as well as having the privilege of caring for my own pets at home. Growing up, I raised reptiles, fish, dogs, cats and hamsters….to name a few! In addition to being a down-to-earth, compassionate human, my friends would say I am trustworthy, responsible and reliable. I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your furbabies (we can probably just call them children at this point, right) :) I am a very active person and enjoy walking, hiking and spending as much time outdoors as possible. My schedule is very flexible which would allow me work around yours! I can’t wait to get to know your furry friend!

About: I've been surrounded by dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, turtles, frogs and fish for 35+ years. I've raised, house-trained, walked, entertained and loved a variety of dogs and cats my entire life. I never get tired of these sweet creatures! I have experience with all dogs and cats, regardless of age, breed or temperament. As I'm now only working part-time providing early intervention services for children, and am self-employed, I have a great deal of flexibility to care for your dogs and cats. I'm available for drop-ins to feed, play with and care for your sweet pets as needed - throughout the day and night - as well as dog-walking, as it fits into your schedule. I've spent the last 20+ years working as a teacher and developmental therapist, educating children who have developmental delays and disabilities. Now, I've decided to focus additionally on my love of animals. Since I was a small child, I've adored pets, and have many years of experience caring for a variety of them. I'm very patient and appreciative of each animal's personality. I currently have 3 dogs and 3 cats of my own, and have used this service as a customer as well, so I can understand your point of view as "parents".

“Eleanor did such an amazing job with my husky She was very punctual and handled Freya like a pro! It’s always a frustration of mine anytime I leave town and come back to a Wiley dog who has been allowed to pull on the leash and jump on people. Eleanor is the first dog walker I’ve had that has expertly kept Freya in line and I’m so appreciative! I will definitely be rebooking in the future.thanks so much!”

About: Growing up, I’ve always been surrounded with pets and been given the opportunity to care for dogs numerous times. I am very patient with animals and genuinely find joy spending my time with them. After recently graduating from college and moving into a studio apartment, it has been an adjustment not being surrounded by pets. Through Rover, I’m excited to not only help others, but also to find fulfillment spending time with pets. Although I work a 9-5, I am willing to make plenty of time before or after work to accommodate your needs. I am a morning person, so I would be more than happy to take your dog on an early morning walk or be there to let them out. I also will be able to take care of them in the afternoon. My weekends are free to help at any time. You can trust me with your pet because I treat animals with the same amount of respect that I’d treat any person. It is my priority to ensure their safety while also having fun. I would love to take them on walks at the park and am open to having them at my apartment if needed.

“Cannot recommend her enough! She is great with my baby and he listens to her very well. She has helped me out so much while I’ve been at work”

About: Every pet has their own story-whether it's a specific dance they do before breakfast, a favorite squeaky toy they can't sleep without, or the exact spot on the couch they claim as theirs. As your pet sitter, my favorite job is keeping those unique stories going while you are away. I focus on overnight house sitting because let's face it, pets are happiest in their own beds and I can step into their normal routine. I make sure their meals are right on time, their walk hits all the best sniffing spots, and bedtime always invites plenty of belly rubs and cuddles. I also like the challenge of training a new pup or teaching an old pup a new trick! Retired animal lover with open availability and a true passion for pet care! After retiring, I decided to dedicate my free time to what I love most: keeping pets happy, safe, and comfortable. Because I don't have a traditional job to rush off to, your pet gets my full, undivided attention and companionship right in the comfort of their own home. Because I am retired, your home becomes my cozy haven, and your pet becomes my absolute priority. I don't just visit to fill bowls, and take care of "poo"; I step into their world to maintain the exact rhythm of their day so they feel completely safe, loved, and secure. From serving breakfast at their exact favorite hour, every task is done with patience and gentleness. My favorite part of the day is simply being present—whether that’s a lively afternoon game of fetch or laser tag, a gentle grooming session, or just sitting quietly on the couch so they have a warm lap to curl up on. I treat your home with the utmost respect and your pet like a cherished member of my own family, giving you total peace of mind and giving them a companion who truly loves being there.

About: I ran my mother’s pet care business for 2 years and am now working independently. I can easily build rapport and trust with any pet, and can handle all sizes and temperaments. Currently working Monday through Saturday from 6am to 7pm. This is my only job at the moment so my availability is wide open and I will accept same day bookings. I build trust and respect with any pet I encounter. I’ll ensure everyone’s care needs are met, and give your pets plenty of love and attention to hold them over until they see you next.

“It was a pleasure to work with Ryan. There was always great communication. He sent us photos and followed our care plan exactly as discussed. We appreciate Ryan and will definitely ask him to walk our dog again.”

About: Hello! You can call me Wendy. I’m a tenured physics professor and a lifelong animal lover. I currently have three cats of my own and many years of experience caring for both cats and dogs. I have experience caring for senior pets and understand the importance of routines, medication schedules, and paying close attention to changes in behavior and health. I’m patient, reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their family is away. For pets boarding in my home, I understand that some pets may be more comfortable having their own space. If you prefer, I can keep my three cats completely separate from your pet for the entire stay, so your pet can relax in a safe, quiet environment. As a professor, I bring professionalism, responsibility, and strong communication to every pet-sitting job. My schedule is especially flexible during evenings, weekends, holidays, and university breaks. Whether you need house sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking, feeding, litter box cleaning, or care for senior pets, I will treat your pets and home with the same care and respect I give my own.

“Dependable, great with big dogs, and flexible!”

I love them all and will care for them like they are my own. I will scratch and play and provide belly rubs on command.
