“Arly was great! Prompt, communicative, thoughtful questions, and overall handled my ridiculous dog wonderfully. I’ll absolutely be reaching out again the next time I need a dog walker.”


“Absolutely love Katelyn. I am very protective of who I allow to walk my Zoey since she is known to be quite a puller and loves to bark. After the meet and greet I felt completely comfortable with Katelyn walking Zoey.”


About: I would love to help you take care of your pets when you can't. I am an online student busy finishing my degree in psychology, I have a lot of free time on my hands so I like to do things I enjoy aka taking care of animals/pets. I have one dog and two cats ( and we definitely plan on adding another dog soon), my pets are literally my babies. I know the stress of going away and worrying about your pets, that's how I came across Rover! My pets are a big part of my life and members of my family and I will treat yours the same. I'm easy going, friendly, honest and reliable. Please feel welcome to send me a message!

About: I love dogs and have a big, silly girl at home so I'm able to handle most rowdy pets. I'm fine with cats, too, as I have had several in my lifetime. I'm not afraid to get down and dirty with your pets during play time or walks and, if you have small pups, I have experience with potty training, too. And if other things, like baths, are needed, it won't be a problem for me, at all. Keeping your pets entertained and happy is what I strive for, but their safety will be my top priority. I will care for them as if they were my own pup and, if I'm petsitting overnight, I will treat your pets and home with the upmost respect. I work part-time in the mornings to early afternoons so I'm available most afternoons for walks or afternoon play dates. I have weekends open and am available for overnight petsitting or just dropping by a couple of hours a day for walks and check ins. I have a fenced in yard with one playful older dog. It is not likely that I will take your pets to my home as my dog can be a bit much with others.

About: I've been an animal lover all my life and find joy in caring for any kind of pet! Animals are a special part of our lives and deserve to be treated just as special! Pet care is my job. It is what I do for a living. I am currently a full time student during the week so any time I am not with your pet, I am at school or studying. Overall, any pet care that I provide, I would spend a majority of my time with your pet. Caring for your pet in my home would look like a home away from home. Comfortable, warm and inviting for your pet. Caring for pets in your home would also include caring for your home and your pet.

About: I've taken care of dog and cats all my life. Animals are and have always been a big part of my life and, I enjoy spending time with them. I Owen a business in town and have some down time. I love animals and it's a perfect fit! I can do the mid day walks. I'm just interested in walking them . They will definitely be safe with me plus I'm in great shape I own a crossfit gym in town.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life; dogs, cats, ducks, and more. I love being able to provide a safe and peaceful experience for any type of pet! I’m currently caring for my disabled mom. I have the flexibility and availability to help out any time of day. Whether it’s walking, sitting, or check-ins. I currently have two big dogs, Bubba and Rufus. I’ve had both since they were puppies and have used positive reinforcement training to now have both well socialized and very good boys.

“Anna is a great dog walker! She always letting me know if there any issue with our dog. I also, love that she send pictures of our dog on his walk. I hope we continue working with her.”


“Erika is so patient and understanding! She’s currently working with us and coming weekly to get our very scared dog used to her before she stays with her while we are gone, and Erika has been so flexible and I can’t say enough how much I appreciate her!”


About: Caring for dogs has always been something that brings me so much joy. I’ve looked after all kinds of pets such as playful puppies, relaxed seniors, and everything in between. I’m gentle, loving, and always make sure each dog feels safe, happy, and at home. I take the time to learn their routines, favorite toys, and quirks, so they get personalized care and attention. Whether it’s giving meds, going on walks, or just snuggling on the couch, I’m there with a warm heart and open arms. Your pup will be treated like family, and you’ll have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy it and make time for it. I’m flexible with my schedule while attending college and love starting or ending my day with dog walks, playtime, or check-ins. Whether it’s weekdays or weekends, I’m happy to work around your pet’s needs. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I do everything I can to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I stick closely to their routine, whether it’s walks, feeding, or cuddle time. I keep things calm and cozy, respect your space, and treat your home the way I’d want mine to be treated. Your pet gets my full attention, and I always check that doors, gates, and anything they can get into are secure. You’ll get updates and photos so you know they’re happy, safe, and in caring hands.

About: I have many years experience with Pets, especially dogs, but cats as well and I have always been able to help them understand how to cooperate. I use positive reinforcement and very clear communication and have been able to help them respond very quickly and understanding what is needed of them. And for me, I respect the unconditional love that they give by returning that, which creates a strong bond. I can express to them and communicate easily using cooperation rather than force. Love is foremost. I am a retired, ultrasound, technician, and I am free almost all days. I have no major commitments to children, grandchildren, etc. to interfere with my pet care routine. I am in good health able to walk even larger dogs with the understanding that they are leash trained. If they are not, I may have to spend some time training them if that is the wish of the owner, and I am well experienced in this training.. I am willing to walk your dog, let him or her out if that is their routine, feed provide water, make sure all their physical mental and emotional needs are met at the time of my visits. I will try to know and understand what they are used to and provide as much of that as possible to relieve the stress of their family being gone.

About: I’ve had the opportunity to be around many large breed dogs since I was a small child so I feel I’ve been able to acclimate to them. I am currently working as a part-time trainer so there are gaps in my schedule that allow me to go on short jogs or runs with my dog for training. During those times I took the opportunity to start helping others out when I can. I have most of the basic amenities. I have a cage if a dog need to be cage. I have a whole backyard area behind my house It just is not fenced in but there’s plenty of space.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my seven years of hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals—not just dogs and cats, but also birds, chickens, and horses. I bring a calm, confident presence that helps animals feel at ease, even those with special needs or unique temperaments. I understand that every pet is different and take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities. My background in animal care goes beyond the basics, and I treat each pet like my own—with patience, respect, and genuine love. Whether it’s a cuddle session, a long walk, or specialized care, I’m here to provide reliable, attentive service you can count on. I currently work full-time, but I have time Saturdays and Sundays for petsitting. I usually work shorter hours Tuesday and Wednesday, so i’m available as well Tuesday through Thursday. I always follow your instructions whether that be taking your dog out on a long lead, or constant watching in your fenced in yard. I make sure they get fed on time, potty breaks if they need them a certain time apart, ie every hour, etc.
