“Cheyenne was very responsive when we needed to leave last minute.

About: Growing up, I've always had furry family members, from playful puppies to curious cats. My lifelong experience with both dogs and cats means I understand their unique needs and personalities. Currently, I share my home with two wonderful cats, so I'm very comfortable with feline friends! Beyond personal experience, my full-time role as a medic at an aid station has honed my attention to detail, responsibility, and ability to handle various situations with care – skills I readily apply to pet sitting. I'm dedicated to providing a loving, safe, and fun environment for your beloved pets. My schedule allows me to offer consistent and flexible care. I'm available every weekday after 6 PM, and I have full availability on weekends to ensure your pets receive plenty of attention and playtime. When your pet stays with me, their safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. My home is a pet-friendly environment where they can feel relaxed and secure. I maintain a clean and tidy space, free of hazards, and ensure all pet supplies are stored safely. For their care, I strictly adhere to feeding schedules and dietary needs, administer medications as directed, and provide ample opportunities for exercise and enrichment, whether it's playtime in the house or leashed walks in the neighborhood (for dogs). I'll provide regular updates and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in trusted and caring hands

“Molly is amazing! She cared for our puppy George and provided great tips for grooming, training, etc. She honored our obedience goals, shared behavior feedback, and most of all loved on George during her visits. We will be rebooking with her without hesitation. I would highly recommend her to anyone in the area!”


About: With 5+ years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, I specialize in providing a calm, friendly, and fun environment for each pup that enters my home. Whether is is playtime to help burn off some energy for a young puppy, gentle care for a senior dog, or just basic consistent routines for anxious dogs, I do it all! I am patient, reliable, and treat every dog like family, because that is exactly what every dog deserves! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. The first thing I do every morning before leaving for work is hang out in the fenced yard area outside with whatever dog I am caring for at the time. Thankfully my job is flexible, so I am able to come home for lunch every day at lunch to let dogs out, stretch their legs in the yard, and get a little bit of play time in. After work I enjoy taking long walks around the neighborhood to burn off some energy and allow for some enrichment for each pup. Weekends are pretty similar, as I usually tend to spend time taking dogs to a local park for long walks and lots of fun. My home is pet-friendly, clean, and has a fully fenced backyard area for dogs to play freely and securely for as long as they would like. My dog Molly is also extremely friendly and playful, making for a great environment to wear off some energy. I make sure each dog has a cozy space to relax and I always supervise interactions to ensure that all dogs are safe. If you would like your dog to be crated, I do have an extra crate or am happy to set up whatever you bring. There is plenty of space to separate dogs in the home as well if it is needed or desired. Fun and safety are my top priorities!

About: I have 1 older dog of my own, 13 years old, and have had him since a puppy. He has had surgeries before so I can also care for sick dogs if needed. I love all dogs and looking forward to meeting yours! I am currently active duty in the Army but am free most weekends and evenings! I care for my dog daily as well so potty breaks are a must throughout the day. I do not house sit dogs in my own home because of my dog, but am willing to pet sit for you in yours! I prefer not to crate dogs, but personal preference and will do what you need!

About: I am a stay at home mom that wants to offer my time and service to care for other’s pets. I have a deep love and care for dogs and prioritize safety for everyone. I am big on communication and keeping the parents informed on how their pets stay is going. I’m pretty flexible for whatever the parent and pet needs since I am home all day. I’m happy to accommodate to help make this experience easier. I have a hugged fenced in yard that is perfect for those super energetic dogs and the ones that just enjoy sniffing around. I have a dedicated room for the pets that I will care for but they are more than welcome to roam around the house and sprawl out on the furniture. Crates are used during feeding time or when I am away to prevent any accidents.

About: Hello! My name is Melissa, and thanks for checking out my profile. Im new to Rover, but not animals care. I had a steady client, house sitting two dogs, but that is now too far away.
