“Shianne is an exceptional dog walker! She's incredibly dependable, flexible, and has fantastic communication. She's also wonderfully sweet with our two corgis, and always makes sure they get a great workout. Our Lulu, who is obsessed with greeting people on her walks, especially loves her time with Shianne. She's my go-to person for our pups!”

“Will has been walking our elderly dog during these cold months and we couldn’t be happier with his service. We love Will! He makes our lives easier by helping us with our dog and paying close attention to his bumps and aches as he ages. Would recommend Will for anyone who loves their dog but also has a million things on their plate and just needs someone reliable!”

“Emily has been a lifesaver in walking our very strong and energetic pointer puppy. Sammie is excited to see her arrive each time. Emily has good communication and is reliable. I can recommend her without hesitation.”


About: I worked at a vet clinic for 3.5 years but due to life changes I now work at a pet store and petsit to continue to work with animals while I work towards my goal of working in vet med again. I’m reliable with my own transportation and am very knowledgeable in proper pet care. I am commutative, compassionate, and attentive to animals and their needs. I have been my own friends and family’s pet sitter for the past 5 years and I treat every animal as if they were my own while in my care. My whole life revolves around animals; I have 4 cats of my own and have fostered 15 animals successfully in the past year, ranging from cats of all ages, dogs, and Guinea pigs. I also work directly with animals at my job and am looking to continue that path. I have multiple rooms in my home to separate the animals in my care if needed, I have access to professional services if an emergency were to arise while also having knowledge of what to look for in with different medical conditions that can be present in animals. I have a good understanding of animal behavior and I understand their needs.
“We've been using Christine for semi-regular walks for our very nervous-yet-twerpy lab for the last few weeks, and have been absolutely thrilled to have her! Her communication is fast, thorough and reassuring, she's been super patient with our girl getting to know her, and it seems like they've been having some fun saunters through the neighborhood. Thanks so much Christine!!”

“Heather is so nice and calm. She knows how to behave with dogs. She made a trip to my place on her own time to meet my dog Jasper who is very cautious about meeting new people. After a short while he had stopped barking and was curled up on a blanket taking a nap.”


“My dog, Cocoa just adores Julie. That's no easy fete as Cocoa can be naughty (she's a puppy) from time to time. Julie is reliable and has great communication with me.”

About: PLEASE READ TO THE VERY END, thank you. I’ve been in love with animals ever since I was a young child. Between my husband and I- we’ve had 20 dogs, 4 horses, 5 cats, and several bunnies. We currently have 2 dogs, 2 cats (one was a barn rescue) 13 chickens, and 5 bunnies. We both have an avid love for being with animals and tuning to their needs, and are building a life to support that. We have 3 children-one s a toddler, so we only take dogs that are non agressive to children. As dog parents ourselves, we know how hard it is to leave our fur babies when we go on vacation. Our main goal as Rover Sitters is to give you peace of mind knowing that your dog is receiving the best care while you are on vacation or even while you are at work! That means daily pictures (and occasionally videos) of your dog playing, napping, and having the best time! We love keeping you updated with pictures and videos on the fun activities that your dog participates in while they are here. We have a very large, fully fenced back yard with plenty of room to run and play with playground bark chips. We usually host 6 -10 plus dogs at a time, so it is extremely important that your dog is friendly and gets along well with other dogs. If you are uncomfortable with a group this size, this will not be a good fit for you. But, if you are excited to see your dog running, wrestling, and playing chase with all their new friends, this is the place for them! The dogs are always supervised when playing in the backyard. My goal is to send your pup home happy and tired at the end of their stay🐾 THINGS TO KNOW WHEN BOOKING: - Please have your dog’s Rover bio up to date. - You do not need to have a meet-and-greet. If your dog gets along great with other dogs, I am comfortable meeting you and your pup at the time of drop-off. - all dogs sleep in extra large crates in our fully finished and heated garage. we feed the dogs in their crates to avoid any food agression. we provide the crates, and towels and blankets. we can only take dogs that sleep quiet in a crate as we have kids and live in a quiet neighborhood- we all need our sleep too :) - All dogs need to have a collar with an I.D. tag. No harnesses please, harnesses can cause chafing if left on for too long. -we can only take unneutered males up to a year old - When coming over for a boarding or daycare, the ONLY thing you should bring is enough food/meds for their stay along with your dog on a leash. Food/meds need to be in a disposable bag with pre-measured portions in disposable sandwich bags (labeled as breakfast lunch or dinner if different amounts of food) Please pack a little extra food than they usually get as most dogs come and get way more play and exercise than they are used to and want/need to eat a little more. Please put any meds in the same bag with the meal it should be taken with. The only exception is if your dog eats wet food. If your dog does not need meds, you can also send a container with a scoop and instructions for feeding. We’ve noticed many people under guesstimate or measure incorrectly how much food there is when packing in a container, so please do double what you think it will be so we don’t run out. If your pup runs out of food we can feed our food at $3 a bowl- we feed Stella and chewys cage free kibble/freeze dried raw blend. If we notice your dog is getting low on food we will offer to supplement the needed amount and will mix with your remaining food so that they can adjust to the food rather than start a new food all at once. You may also have your food delivered to our home. -Personal beds/toys/bowls/belongings cause issues with our group as some pups get possessive over their personal belongings from home. Do not bring any of these items. ONLY bring your dog on a leash and food/meds, nothing else. We will provide the other items. If you bring food bowls, please label them with your pets name. - When you are leaving your house, please text me with the time your GPS says you will arrive at my house. Message me again when you get here, and I will come out to meet you and your pup. Please do not knock on the door or ring the doorbell as this will excite all the dogs inside (If I have not responded to your text with in 5 minutes then yes, please do ring both of our door bells) I will take your dog inside or to our outside run to meet the other dogs through a fence without you and introduce them to the group one dog at a time, starting with my dogs.(some dogs get protective over their owners in a new environment).
“Gabrielle has been fantastic with our dog. He has a tough time with new people and requires a little extra love and attention and she’s given him that. Professional and sweet. Highly recommend.”


About: I’ve owned dogs and cats (and some birds!) all my life, and gained valuable knowledge through the journey of raising a puppy of my own (Odo the red tri aussie shepherd) as a single pet parent, alongside his inseparable best friend Miles (black shorthair). I’ve cared for seniors and some special needs pets too. I am available all day every day! I am a working actor, so I will sometimes be unavailable for a few hours a few evenings a week, but will adjust my availability accordingly when those opportunities arise. Daytime hours will always be open! I will always respect your home and space, and I always strive to maintain a “leave no trace” approach. My curious aussie shepherd puppy has also taught me much about what “dog proof” truly means, and if you have a chewer/reacher, I will be especially vigilant to protect both your pets and your things!
About: I have been around dogs my whole life! My mother was a dog breeder, meaning I have experience with puppies! I can’t remember a time when we didn’t have a dog in the house growing up, wasn’t till recently that I haven’t had a pet in the home. I’m a single mom to an animal loving 3 year old, who would be my little helper. I currently work in the medical field meaning I’m comfortable administering all kind of medications, whether that be topical, oral, or injectable medications. I have done pet sitting in the past, I have taken care of many kinds of animals, dogs, cats, horses, livestock, you name it I’ve probably taken care of it! I currently work full time, but I am home on evening and weekends, so I’m home starting Friday night to Sunday night to take your pup out as often as possible. During the week I am gone typically 12-14 hours a day, but if your pup is use to that I can make it work to let them out in the morning and then rush back to let them out once I’m home. I live in a duplex with a small fence in area that I can do quick potty breaks and then live close to walking trails for longer outside times. I have a 3 year old daughter who loves to play with animals. I also love close to parks that I can take dogs to if owner is comfortable with me transporting them. I also live close to my sister who has an active dog who loves friends to play with so that is an option if you have a high energy dog that likes friends.
About: With 30 years as a devoted dog owner, raising puppies and supporting seniors, I bring patience, experience, and genuine love to every dog I care for. I am retired, giving me a flexible schedule that easily accommodates daily walks and dependable, consistent pet care, so your pets feel loved every single day. ith decades of dog-care experience, from puppies to seniors, I provide dependable dog walking and drop-in services. Now retired, I focus on creating a safe, positive experience that keeps your dog happy and refreshed.
“Lee is awesome! They are understanding and caring! Our dog is a lot to handle but Lee is really patient with him. Such a relief to have a dog walker who we can count on! Thanks Lee”

“Erin was great with our pups and very communicative! We appreciated having her come drop in and take our dogs for their lunchtime walks when my partner was out of town”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for family and friends for years, as well as having dogs of my own. I have experience with little dogs(my own) as well as larger dogs. I have class in the evening for about 3 hours, so I’m free to take care of a pet before and after my classes:) In a clients home I make sure the pets are comfortable, fed, safe, and happy. Making sure any pet-exits are blocked when needed and bowls are full:)
About: I have been around dogs my entire life. More specifically, I grew up in the pet grooming, industry, and my mother had me starting to bathe the dogs for her at the age of 10. I did this on many weekends throughout school and summer. This is when I was taught dog body language and how to gently handle even the most nervous pups. When I was 21 she taught me to groom dogs and I have been doing it ever since. Throughout the years of 2020 and 2025 I owned an operated my own successful dog grooming business, which I built from the ground up. In 2025 I decided to sell that business to one of my employees, and I am now working for her. I have also babysat many friends animals throughout the years and have become a trusted source. I would now like to expand my skills to wider customer base. I want to make sure that your dogs are safe and happy while you’re away. I am comfortable with all breeds and all ages. If you have an older dog that needs more consistent check-in, I am happy to accommodate. I have a part-time job with very flexible scheduling, so I will be available most times for your pet during the week. If there is a scheduling for conflict, I will make sure to address that immediately. I will be coming to your home to babysit. I am very clean and respectful of peoples space and will only be in the required area to take care of your dog or cat.
About: I LOVE animals! I treat every animal like my own. From walks, to playtime, to just keeping them company , I make sure pets feel safe, cared for, and happy! Right now my schedule is very open, so pet care fits naturally into my day. I’m able to prioritize walks, playtime, feeding routines, and giving pets the attention they need and deserve! I try follow each pet’s routine so they aren’t disrupted by big change, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and all of the attention! My goal is to keep pets comfortable, happy, and stress-free while their people are away.
