Melanie did a wonderful job watching my pup. She gave consistent updates and my pup was relaxed and appeared to be well rested when I picked her up which is the best thing I can ask for … I would definitely rebook Melanie!

I'm so happy I found Brannon on here. He's so kind and caring, and my little guy gets excited when he sees him. I can tell Brannon truly loves and cares about animals and gives them the love and attention they deserve. I highly recommend him!

About: Hi, I’m Nathalia! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 15 years of experience caring for pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a proud dog mom to two wonderful dogs of my own, I know how important it is to feel confident and at ease when leaving your furry family member in someone else’s care. I aim to adore and care for your pet as much as you do! Caring for dogs is already a big part of my everyday life. I currently have a wide open schedule and available Monday through Sundays for boarding for daycare. I have a home that is fully pet proof (secure cabinets, secure trash can, and fenced yard). I can crate your dog if needed as well.

Ali and her partner Jake were wonderful puppy sitters. We just got our pup about a week ago and needed a sitter in a pinch. We called Ali just a few days before we needed her and she was responsive to our request and so helpful. Communication leading up to the day was excellent and it was comforting to know that both Ali and Jake were so excited to spend time with our pup. Ali sat our pup Ozzie for 3 days and each day he came home worn out from a fun day of activity and hands-on time. Ali only takes one pup at a time, so it’s nice to know that the focus is on your dog. He was well-fed and watered and came home a happy guy. I will definitely be calling Ali and Jake if I need sitters for Ozzie in the future.

Janet is such a wonderful dog sitter! She is experienced with small dogs and small dog care (which is not always easy to find). My small young playful Pomeranian loved her and I could tell she felt at home and comfortable in Janet’s home. She is a great communicator, provided picture updates, updated the app details, and was on point with my dog’s care. The surrounding area around her apt is dog friendly and safe. I recommend her and look forward to using her services again.

About: I'm a huge dog lover with a wide range of experience with dogs of all sizes and ages. I've dog-sat for neighbors, friends, and family, including dog sitting 5 dogs at a time. I have experience boarding a 4 month old puppy and also have experience with administering medicine to older dogs. I would be so excited to care for your pet! I am home during the work day and love going on daily walks around the neighborhood. I would be thrilled to have your dog as a companion! I work remotely from my apartment so I am always home M-F during work hours and love to have a furry companion. I love taking breaks in the day to go on walks around the neighborhood. On most weekday nights and weekends I am also available to hang out with your pet, with the occasional outting! I live in an apartment complex with a small balcony off of my unit. There is a dog park directly across the street from me. Your dog is welcome to sleep on my couch or in my bed if preferred!

About: I believe that a happy dog in the home is essential and a precursor to a happy life overall, and I strive to bring the same attentiveness and care that I share with my own pup to any pets I have the privilege of taking care of through my services on Rover. When we meet the basic needs of our precious companions throughout the day, we have more freedom to bond with them, and them with us, and that’s where I come in! I want to help you meet your home pet care needs and goals so you can feel confident that when you come home after a busy day, you are coming home to a dog or a cat that is happy and well taken care of. I want to ensure that your pet’s routines stay intact, that they get plenty of exercise when needed, that they stay safe, and it is a joy to me to provide that service! I work from home, and my day is already built around caring for a dog. Morning walk first thing, breakfast, play, a walk around 5:30 for dinner, evening walk before bed, with attention and rest woven in between. I follow instructions exactly, keep your pet's routine intact, send photo updates, and treat your home and your dog's space the way I'd want someone to treat mine. On walks, I match the pace to the dog, calm dogs get a relaxed walk, energetic ones we stay moving, and I stay attentive to reactivity triggers and adjust accordingly.

Pets are looked after consistently as if they are my own. As a work from home person, I am completely available and ready to assist.
