Doggy Day Care Wheel

About: I've had pets my whole life. I also worked at a dog groomers, where I learned how to care for others' dogs aside from my own. I am patient and really love animals! I have my own business where I mostly work from home so my schedule is generally up to me. I also have a dog so I have time set aside for taking care of him. I have a backyard and a friendly, calm dog to keep them company. We can also keep them in separate rooms if needed. I can crate your dog if they feel safer there.

About: I have fostered over 250 amazing dogs, mostly seniors and special needs, so I have experience with most any medical or behavioral care. I have had dogs ages newborn to 16+ in my care, so I have experience with all the life stages. I have experience training dogs of all sizes, from 5 pounds to 150 pounds. I believe that my calming presence around animals set me apart to earn their trust. I am home nearly 24/7 and spend most of that with my personal pets or farm animals, so being with your pet would just be added into my routine. I have a fenced in yard. While my small inside dogs are very friendly, I am comfortable with separating if needed using crates or gates. My inside dogs are 10 pounds and under. Pets have access to all areas of my home, with supervision.

“Amanda is wonderful, Bruno enjoys going to her house. Communication is easy and Amanda is so flexible with my unpredictable work schedule. Thank you so much!”

“Michelle and her daughter were awesome! Our Scout came home thoroughly exhausted in a GOOD way. He’s an almost 60lb Choc Lab 9 mo old puppy and had soooo much fun playing with the pups at Michelle’s House. I highly recommend her!”

About: My name is Isabella, a stay-at-home mom of three who has always been surrounded by animals. Growing up in Colombia, I began caring for pets at the age of 15, starting with my family, friends, and neighbors. My love for animals led me to work with nonprofit organizations for years. Now that I’m in the USA, I’m excited to bring my experience and passion for animals to you and your pets. I have a dog, a cat, and a ferret at home, so I understand how much pets mean to a family. I’m committed to providing each pet with the best care possible and treating them as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting your furry family members! As a stay-at-home mom, pet care is naturally woven into my daily routine. My availability is completely open and flexible, always depending on your needs! Living on two acres of country land, I provide pets with a spacious and safe environment. I have crates (if needed) and a play pen to ensure their comfort and security. Pets receive regular meals, fresh water, and plenty of playtime in a nurturing and relaxed setting.

About: Hi! I’m a high school teacher who teaches culinary arts. At home, I have a golden retriever, Saffron and a Labradoodle, Leo. I live on 2 1/2 acres, one of which is fenced in and perfect for furry friends to run and play! I am a teacher and gone from 7 am to 3:30 pm, but my parents live next door and watch my animals when I am away. Growing up, my brother had a service dog who was part Great Dane and part Black Lab. He became part of the family! I think that’s what started my love for animals. Since college, I’ve had at least one pet. While in Culinary school, I worked long hours. For Christmas, I got my cat, Basil. She was at the door with a “meow” at the end of long days in the kitchen. When I began my career as a culinary teacher, I bought my first house with a back yard and almost immediately added my girls, Sage and Sketch to the household! I work full time as a high school teacher. but live next door to my parents who watch over my pets. They love them as if they were their own! I have an acre, fenced in back yard. My dogs love the country, running and playing in the back yard! They are house dogs, but love the chance to run as much as possible.

“Crystal was amazing. She sent beautiful photos of my babies while they were running, laughing and playing. I know that they would love to keep her. I told them that she is nice and cute, but she is still a human. It is hard for them to understand. So we let her go back home.we all hope that she comes back someday and spreads happiness like sunshine across our home again. She was like a guardian angel as she came to their rescue. She slayed loneliness and sadness with the sword of happiness, bla, bla, bla. Hope to have you visit again, Lady O.????????❤️”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover and proud Rover Star Sitter with four years of experience and consistent 5-star reviews. Caring for dogs isn't just something I do; it's something I truly enjoy. Long before I joined Rover, I was the go to pet sitter for my family and friends whenever they traveled. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I have experience with basic training, nutrition, and helping dogs feel safe and comfortable in a new environment. Because I work remotely from home, your dog won't be left alone for long periods. I have the flexibility to provide regular potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime, and, of course, plenty of attention throughout the day. I know every dog is different, and I do my best to keep their routine as close to home as possible. After losing my own sweet dog a few years ago, I kept all of her favorite beds, blankets, and cozy spots. Your pup is welcome to make themselves at home. Whether that's curling up on a dog bed, relaxing on the couch, or exploring my securely fenced backyard. Well behaved dogs are treated like part of the family while they're here. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make sure your dog feels happy, loved, and well cared for from the moment they arrive until it's time to go home. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I work remotely from home and have a flexible schedule. That allows me to provide regular potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day instead of leaving pets alone for long hours. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to keep them happy, comfortable, and as close to their normal routine as possible. In my home, dogs are treated like family. They have plenty of comfortable places to relax, access to my securely fenced backyard for supervised play and potty breaks, and lots of love and attention throughout the day since I work from home. I follow your feeding schedule, exercise routine, medication instructions (if needed), and any special preferences you have to help your dog feel right at home.

“Katie is amazing! She made my pups feel so loved, they came home happy and tired from having such a blast! They wanted to stay longer to keep playing! She treats them like family and it made me feel at ease knowing that she takes care of them the way I do.”

“Erika Leigh and Erik are simply the best! As first-time dog owners, leaving our very loved 2-year-old Lab, Ruger, was a huge step for us. He has never been left with a sitter or alone for more than a few hours. He’s truly our family sidekick and goes almost everywhere with us. We had an all-day family event to attend and decided it would be best to leave him with a sitter for the day. Since it was a last-minute need, we were so grateful to find Erika Leigh and Erik on Rover. They were incredibly accommodating and graciously welcomed us to bring Ruger over beforehand so he could meet them, explore their home, and so they could answer all of our questions. From the beginning, their communication was outstanding. They responded quickly before our booking and kept us updated throughout the day with messages and photos of Ruger having a great time. Those updates gave us complete peace of mind and allowed us to fully enjoy our family event without worrying about him. It was clear that Ruger was well cared for and treated like one of their own. We couldn’t have asked for a better first sitter experience and would not hesitate to book with Erika Leigh and Erik again. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitters!”

“Kristen was wonderful! She had great communication prior and during the stay, and I would definitely recommend her to watch your dog. She greeted us outside when we arrived and again when we picked up our dog, which made everything feel very welcoming and personal. Our dog was well cared for, and we would absolutely use her again if we need another pet sitter. Thank you, Kristen!”

About: I have been pet sitting for over 15 years. I am a true dog lover with 3 dogs of my own. I am also a dog foster! Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I am a stay at home mom with 3 dogs of my own. Your pup will never be alone for more than 4 hours at a time and most days no more than 30 minutes! I have a fenced yard, 3 pup play mates and endless love to give. Your pup will be part of the family while they are in my care.

“Mary Beth, wonderful host for Bentley he was immediately at home. She and her lovely family took great care of him. He was only there for maybe close to 4 hours, but it was a worry free time for me. I highly recommend her services.”

About: I absolutely LOVE animals. I have had dogs most of my life, and became a cat mom over 10 years ago. They are more than just pets - they’re family! I will treat your loved fur one like my own. I have experience giving dogs oral medications and giving cats both oral medications and injections (insulin). I work a hybrid schedule so my days are super flexible! I can be flexible with timing as long as I have sufficient notice. I am happy to accommodate your needs to the best of my ability. I want to assimilate your fur baby’s routine to the best of my ability! I will follow your instructions with any specific guidelines or requests. I am not afraid to ask clarifying questions.

“My German shepherd was happy and healthy staying with serenity. Her puppies, really sweet and calm.”

“One of the best experiences I've had on Rover. Maggie was absolutely amazing and it was easy and fuss free. Molly was well cared for and perfectly happy. So pleased!”

Amy S.

“Melissa was pleasant, caring and watched our senior puppy Grover for about four hours so we could go to a medical appointment. Grover has separation anxiety and he's blind and partially deaf and Melissa cared for him well. We will definitely use again when the need arises.”

About: With over two decades of experience in canine care, I've cultivated a deep understanding of dog handling and care that empowers me to make a positive impact. Starting as a 10-year-old caring for neighbor's dogs with twice-daily walks, I've consistently demonstrated reliability and dedication. Growing up with Golden Retrievers and now sharing my life with a standard size Goldendoodle named Penny, has not only strengthened my love for animals but also taught my children the value of compassion. My family, including my husband, two children, and I, along with Penny, are committed to providing your dog with constant companionship, attentive care, and a nurturing environment. Having trained dogs in basic commands and upheld the highest standards of pet care, I'm confident in my ability to unlock the full potential of your dog and provide exceptional care. Hi my name is Katie. As a full-time homemaker, my schedule allows for seamless integration of pet care responsibilities. Given my consistent presence at home, managing a routine that includes our current pets - a goldendoodle and a turtle - along with caring for our two children, is quite manageable. Consequently, incorporating additional pets would not significantly impact our existing schedule. I have a spacious yard of nearly an acre, which is not fenced. However, I am happy to walk your dog on a leash if required. My own goldendoodle and two children will ensure your dog has a fun time, and we have a variety of toys available. Additionally, if your dog requires solitude, we can provide a quiet space. During summertime we will have doggy pool available for your pup to cool off in.

“Easy to communicate with. Great pics. Thank you for taking such good care of our baby.”
