“Dylan arrived promptly and Luke absolutely adored him!! He was kind and gentle with my 7lb bundle of energy. I appreciated his graciousness with both Luke’s and my separation anxiety. I wish they lived near me for I’d contact them weekly! Margaret and Luke 🐶”

“10 out of 10! I was out of state to visit family, and C.P. was so great about sending daily photos/ updates of when he was dropping by. Will definitely be booking him again!”

“We could not have had a better experience with Casey caring for our pups! His communication was prompt, he arrived to every visit on time, he sent lots of pics while our dogs were in his care, and was just a rockstar with our three pups. We will definitely reach out to him again and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

“Just wanted to say nothing but the best !!! Was a little nervous leaving my babies with someone i didn't know but Kerry made it easy not to worry went on a 3 day trip and my boys are a little shy and scared of people they dont know but by their second visit you couldn't tell the boys loved them. Would 100% have Kerry watch in on my boys on our next trip and future trips we take. Kerry you and your partner are the best ! Thank you for being so good to our boys !!!”

“Samantga did a fantastic job with our girls! Everything was handled just as I had requested and she was always ontime. Thank you for our get away without having to worry about the pups ? ?”
About: As a former pet owner I understand how important it is to make sure your pets are safe and comfortable. I have over 10 years of experience with all breeds and types of dogs and cats. I grew up fostering dogs out of our childhood home. I was very involved even at the age of 6. We stopped fostering when I was around the age of 19. As of right now, Rover is my full time job. I absolutely love doing it and being around such wonderful people and pets. I do not offer boarding for pets right now as I do live with my father, step mother, and younger brother (seen in profile picture) but do plan on adding boarding services soon. While I do not offer boarding at this moment, I do enjoying staying at others homes, understanding their pets will have more comfort being in their own home. A guarantee I offer if I do stay in your home is you will come back to it cleaner than when you left it. Coming home to happy pets and a clean home is one of the best feelings, coming from personal experience. I love playing with the energetic pets or cuddling with the more relaxed ones. I hope to get to be part of you and your pets life’s and creating a strong bond and trustworthy relationship that you will come back to happy healthy fur-babies☺️ As of right now I use Rover full time. My calendar will stay up to date, but I will keep clients updated if any minor changes come up! I am more than comfortable sending texts or pictures for updates of your fur-baby. I will adjust to your dogs schedule. I love walking and playing with energetic dogs, or cuddling with the sleepy ones!

About: I’ve been surrounded by pets my whole life! I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, and a chinchilla that I’ve taken care of. I currently have two German Shepherds and two cats! I will provide patient, personalized care and treat every pet like my own. I understand that every animal has different needs, routines, and personalities, so I will focus on making them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away! I am entering summer break and only have track practices, so I have a lot of available time to make visits! You can also reach out any time, even same-day messages! I have a large front and back yard, and the back is also fenced in for extra safety. My dogs at home are also friendly to have a pet friend! If needed, there are also plenty of rooms in my house to separate animals too.
About: I have taken care of pets my entire life. I have cared for dogs of all sizes as well as cats. It’s not a job it’s a passion. I am full time active duty in the military so my schedule varies I work essentially a firefighter type schedule so schedule will be custom with each client. On my days off I will be available all day. I am able to travel for my clients. I am patient and enjoy pets. My care will be honest and done with integrity and be authentic.

About: I have house and dog sat for 6 years. I have also handled cats. I have handled anywhere from puppies to senior dogs and love to take them on walks! I work full time during the school year as a pediatric COTA but part time over the summer. My schedule varies but I am available for the most part! I just moved into my own home but I grew up with cats and have had a dog for 10 years. Feeding them and making sure running water was available was my number one priority!
About: My 3 years experience house sitting for multiple types of animals and birds, along with 5 years of dog grooming experience, put me in a position to help you with your animals while you are away. Additionally, 2 years supporting a traveling nail clipping business (different types of animals) gives me the experience of helping with stressed pets. Currently I work part-time with animals and attend school locally, so I can spend time with your pets during the weekday. My availability is limited on the weekends. Animals in my care will not leave the house without a leash/leadline (smaller animals in carriers). Please contact me with your pets security concerns and we can work through them to find what works best for you and your fur babies.

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 20 years and currently live with four of my own, so I truly understand multi-dog households, routines, and different personalities. I’m calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and reliable. During drop-in visits, I focus on safety, enrichment, and clear communication so you feel confident every time you’re away. I work at a campground, so my schedule varies by season, but I plan in advance and communicate clearly. I focus on drop-in visits and short check-ins in your home, and I’m reliable about timing, updates, and following your pet’s routine. I care for pets in your home exactly as instructed, keeping their environment safe, clean, and consistent. I follow detailed routines for feeding, medication, and enrichment, and I send regular photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: My pet care started when I was 6 years old, I was known as the neighborhood dog catcher. If any of my neighbor's dogs got loose/ran away they would call me to bring them back. I had a 100% success rate every time! I have a love and passion for all animals and it has shown since I could talk. I have 2 dogs of my own, a snake, and fish! One of my dogs is reactive and I have taken online reactivity classes to recognize dog body language and how to work with triggers, so the "problem" dogs are no problem to me! My other dog is a senior so I also have personal experience with senior care and taking things slower for the seasoned pups. All dogs are welcome here! I have very flexible availability and I am willing to work with everyone on getting dates and times that work best for their pets needs! I pay attention to body language and focus on providing a calm and nurturing environment where your pet feels safe and loved. I carefully follow directions and make sure you have total peace of mind while your pet(s) are in my care!

About: I have taken care many dogs in my family. As well as senior dogs that needed medication when it came to feeding time. I have taught my dogs to do little tricks. Pet care can fit into my daily and weekly routine very easily and I have a car so I can be to the home on time. I follow what the owner wants for the pets. I will always make it a point to have the pet go to the bathroom before I leave, and play with toys or outside before I fully leave each time.
About: I offer in house boarding So your pet doesn’t have to sleep on a hard floor and be in a kennel. Your pet will be treated as though they are one of my own. If they sleep with you they sleep with me! They are my first priority! Come on out and do a meet and greet! Pet boarding is my biggest priority. Your pet will have all the attention, fun time and proper care they need during their visit no matter how long their visit is. I care for the pets I sit as though their own owner is caring for them. If they have food and water in front of them, 24/7 that will be something that they will have at my facility if they don’t and they have a different regiment that is something they will have in my facility if they have toys, beds, medication at their home that is what i will provide for them as well. If they are, or aren’t allowed on the furniture that is what i will do If they sleep in your bed with you at night they will sleep with me at night. If they go on multiple daily walks, that is what i will do. Your pet will be cared for just the way you care for them.
About: We have had dogs for over 50 years, all sizes, many breeds. We know your dog may need a different level of attention than others, we will make it feel at home by treating it just like you tells us to. We won’t just throw it out back with some food and water, it will get personal treatment just like our Piper does. She doesn’t work and only leaves home for a few hours to go to the store or doctor. Your dog will have supervision most of the time. Bring its favorite toy or bed, it can play fetch, ball, tug of war with Piper. The fenced yard has access via a doggy door or a human door. Piper sleeps in a crate in her own bedroom but your dog can sleep the same way it does at home, just tell us what it prefers. Bring its food and water Bowls. We will consider dogs from 40-100 lbs in case by case review. We DO NOT accept Pit Bull dogs. We request a meet and great visit prior to scheduled stay to make sure your dog is a good fit in our home.
About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and have experience taking care of them for friends and family. I’m comfortable with all kinds of pups—big or small—and enjoy spending time walking, playing, feeding, and just making sure they’re happy and comfortable. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always do my best to keep them feeling safe and loved. I currently work Monday evenings, Tuesday, and Thursday. I have a flexible work schedule so I am available on mondays before 4pm. Tuesday 10am-1pm. Thursday Noon-4. Available all day Wednesday and Friday. I am looking to fill up my day in between my caregiving job. I currently do not offer pet care in my home but possibly in the future. I do offer pet sitting in the clients home! I can do overnights as well. I will make sure all the pets needs are taken care and make them extra comfortable.
About: I make sure they’re taken care of properly just like the owner wants. I’m all around an animal lover. I enjoy the walks, playing, and bonding. Availability is whenever. I love teaching dogs tricks! I like setting goals for myself and animals. I like making them feel loved. Giving them the attention and care that they need. I will do anything for anyone. I love helping others. If your animal needs special care then that’s what they will get. I will give them the best care that you ask for. I have a year old puppy that loves attention. He would love a playmate as well. We have had him since he was a month old and he’s been potty trained since about 2 weeks after we had picked him up.
