“Thank you so much for ALL you do for my fur babies !!! Times have been tough so being able to rely on a dog walker had previously seemed like an impossiblity until we found you !!! Thank you sm sm sm !!!”
“Jen was great and cared for our three very senior kitties like they were her own! Was very observant and sent me updates each day, then left detailed notes for us when we returned. Cats this age (18) require a careful eye and we were very reassured that she was watching them. SO glad to have found Jen!”
About: I had my sweet dog Tinkerbell for 18 years & I’m not quite ready for another pup for myself so I absolute love spending time with other wonderful peoples pets! I have 2 cats- Winifred & Luna so I am familiar with cat care. I am experienced with senior pet care. I also worked in a veterinary hospital for a couple of years so I am familiar with lots of different kinds of animals, including dogs, cats, reptiles, rats & more! I also have some experience with health sensitive and geriatric pets. I can administer medications & am familiar with prescription diets. I work full time Monday through Friday but I do have an hour lunch break where I can stop by and let animals out and feed them if needed. When I am not at work, I am available to be at your home as much as you would like me there. I frequently stay in peoples homes with their pets. I am off work on weekends so I can dedicate the entire weekend to your furry babies. I do not usually watch animals in my own home, other than cats who are not outdoor cats & are experienced & good with other cats, since I have two of my own. I prefer to watch animals in their own home, as it lessens the stress for the animal (and my cats! haha)
“Paige is awesome! She was very attentive to my kitty while ai was gone. She sent lots of pictures and ensured my cat had her essentials and favorite things! I will absolutely book with Paige again!💕”
“We were pleased with the care and attention our fuzzy friend received from Justin, and the daily photos were fun. No problems at all and the cat was fed and taken care of, couldn’t ask for more. Would consider Justin again in the future.”
About: I’ve been the primary caregiver for my family’s dogs (2–3 at a time) for over 8 years. I’ve also provided dog-sitting services for multi-dog households in my community, earning excellent reviews from happy pet parents! I’m available Monday through Friday after 5 p.m., and I’m completely free and flexible on weekends to give your pets the love and care they deserve! I’m happy to provide walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of loving pets and snuggles to keep your furry friends happy and cared for!
About: I’ve been pet sitting for a few animals on multiple occasions. I can sit for cats and dogs at the same time. I love playing with animals and treat them like my own. I am full time college student but would be able to accommodate most pet sittings. I have a car and would easily be able to house sit! I spend lots of time with the animals I take care of. I can walk them, bathe them, play with them, and more! I have a pup of my own who is very loved. I also can do small household tasks such as cleaning, taking out trash, watering plants, and getting the mail.
About: Animal care is my passion! From years of dogsitting to working in a veterinary hospital, I have the personal and professional experience to give your pets the best care and make sure my clients feel super comfortable leaving their pets with me! I can pet sit all week and dog walk on weekends and weekday evenings after work. I do work ~35 hours a week and will always be communicative about my schedule with my clients! I am very accomodating to all households regarding how to care for the pets. I will always make sure the pets are getting the attention and care needed like treats, bones, walks, etc. Lastly, I always leave clients' homes clean and tidy!
About: I grew up with dogs my whole life and have a good sense on how to read them and their comfort level. I enjoy all breeds and personalities when it comes to dogs and will meet them wherever they are at to ensure they feel as comfortable as possible while you're away. As a pet parent who uses Rover, I know how important it is to know your pet is well taken care of while you're not there. I am also a volunteer dog walker at UPAWS and have learned a lot from the staff there on how to properly meet and interact with new dogs. I'm currently not working, so I have plenty of free time to devote to taking care of your pet(s)! I spend a lot of my free time volunteering with various local organizations. I have a cat in my home, so I wouldn't be able to care for pets at my house, but I would take quality care of pets in their own home. I would follow whatever routine they normally have to try to reduce the stress of their people being gone.
About: Remote worker with flexible availability! Multiple years of experience dog walking/running/biking/hiking and always looking for a fur-ball adventure buddy to blow off some cold-weather energy with. Have experience with various breeds of various sizes with a spectrum of energy levels. Mindful, respectable, dependable and patient with both dogs and people. Willing to learn how to handle any dogs that require special attention or extra medical care. Please contact if any questions or just to say hello! I work full time remotely as an event coordinator for a snow-surf-skate non-profit so have tons of open availability to care for your beloved animals. Open to traveling further and staying for longer periods of time if needed. I can provide referrals from folks I have supported with their pups over the years. I always make sure to check-in and update daily and am very respectful of individual's needs.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 11. I’ve been trusted with walking, feeding, bathing, as well as medication administration by family and friends. I work as a night shift nurse so my schedule can be a bit different, hectic, and sparse at times, but I’m still able and very much willing to give your dog the care, love, and attention they need and deserve! I can easily crate your dog if needed. I always check fences or fence gates before letting a dog outside. If dropping in for a house visit, I like to make sure the area is safe and secure - making sure your pup doesn’t get into anything they shouldn’t, such as trash bins, food on the counter, etc.
About: Growing up, there has always been dogs in my house. Currently, I own two Shih Tzus and have had a Teddy Bear in the past. I can administer some medications as well as participate in enrichment activities. I’m currently not working and I am a college student. I am open to caring for your animals anytime of the day. Feel free to reach out! I am very passionate about animals of all kinds. A meet and greet prior to the visit can always be done to confirm that we are a good match for each other!
About: I am a 30 year old college graduate and I have loved dogs my entire life. I was never allowed to have a dog growing up so I always asked my friends if I could hang out with their dogs whenever possible. I just honestly really love dogs and want to be able to hang out with as many as possible throughout my life. I interned at a Veterinary Clinic during my senior year of high school so I have become familiar with appropriate ways to administer medications, trim toe nails, and calm anxious pups. My availability is fairly flexible and I will always make time to take care of a pooch that needs it while their pet parents are away for whatever reason they have. My schedule can sometimes be unpredictable but I always do my best to communicate that with possible clients. Open communication is key for me to help you. If I’m in your home, I treat it like my own. I was raised to respect everyone and their belongings. Your pet’s safety is always my number one priority.
