“We were so glad to have Andria again and both of our cats seemed so playful in the pics she sent. Best of all she is available for a 2 week stretch in August! She's just the best!”

About: Leaving your four legged loved ones at home when you go on vacation is never easy. I strive to make sure they feel cared for and loved while you are away so you don't need to worry! I have over 18 years experience caring for animals of my own, rescue fosters, and shelter animals, and caring for others' pets while they are away. I am a lifelong animal lover with experience with cats, dogs, and small animals like ferrets, guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, chickens, and more. I have cats and dogs of my own currently. Whether you are looking for a dog walker, a drop-in pet sitter, or a comfortable place to board your four-legged (or more or less) family members, I can be of service to you. I live in a single family home with a fully fenced in backyard, and a separate dedicated nicely sized bedroom dedicate to boarding. Whether I'm housing your pets or visiting your home, my goal is always to make them as comfortable and as happy as possible! I am currently working part-time from home. I am available for boarding, walking, and drop-ins, on a relatively flexible schedule. I am also offering sitter pick-ups and drop-offs as a boarding add-on. My style of pet care is catering to their needs and your desires. I have experience with shy, rowdy, low-energy, and other types of personalities. Each pet and each situation requires a unique approach.

“This was our first Rover experience and they did an amazing job! They sent photos of playing with Zeke and he looked so happy! Thank you so much for making Zeke feel so comfortable.”

“Nicole was great! Went above and beyond when I had a power outage scare while out of town. Great communication and on-time drop ins.”

About: Any animal I care for I look at as my own family member because thats what they are. I will care for and love them and defend them. I have never had my own pet, but I have lots of experience with pets from friends who have had pets and I have cared for and interacted with them. I have an open schedule. I am currently unemployed and can take bookings on short notice. I'm also available during most mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I will take care of their basic needs such as food and water. Also making sure to give them plenty of attention and playtime to ensure that they are loved and cared for :)

“Came home to a happy healthy cat. Holly went above and beyond!”

“Emilia was great with our 2 cats for 10 that we were gone out of state. I even messed up one of the days that I needed her to come and didn't book her, but fortunately she was able to go by to feed and check on them anyway, which was so great. She was available in a pinch and I'm so grateful we booked with her. Will absolutely book with Emilia in the future!”

“Danielle did a great job while we were out of town for a wedding! Stopped by each morning and posted some pictures for us. We would definitely book her again!”

About: Ive helped friends and family take care of pets for years, big and small dogs included. When I first moved up to Alaska I helped on a sled dog yard that my grandpa and his friends owned, helping young nervous puppies find their voices and confidence. To this day they are all hard working and well behaved dogs. Ive had my own animals from dogs and cats to rodents and lizards since I was young that I've been in charge of feeding, bathing and cleaning up after. I have experience with senior dogs and giving medications, like insulin as I house and dog sat for my grandparents for long periods of times including when one of their senior dogs became sick and had to be given insulin twice a day every day for the month I was there. I've been helping pet parents on rover for almost 2 years now and have enjoyed every moment of it. The people and the animals have been so great, I can't wait to continue working with pet parents to keep their babies safe and healthy! This would be my full time job as of right now so I would have plenty of time for you and your fur babies needs. My schedule is pretty open at the moment with no big plans that would prevent me from caring for your animal! As of right now I own a sweet dog, he's kennel trained and is kenneled bedtime for his safety and comfort. Furthermore I'd follow whatever rules for your pets that you have in your home to keep your animals on a good schedule.

About: I have a very flexible schedule and I'm happy to be there for walks and potty breaks or house and pet sitting as-needed. Minnesota native. I look forward to hearing from you. I have a small dog of my own and I take her for walks as needed, although she has severe arthritis and needs daily medication and monitoring. I am accustomed to letting her out to go to the bathroom at least every 4-5 hours. She is my pride and joy, and I'll ensure your canine family member is treated with equal care. I also care for my mother's large dogs often and grew up with larger breeds. There are 3 dogs in my household already, so boarding your dog at my residence may be a challenge, but I have done it before with enough time for a couple meet and greets beforehand. I am more than willing to come to you for your overnight needs or for daily walks and playdates.

“Hannah took great care of my pups! She’s attentive and cautious. I will definitely book her again.”

“Bailey took wonderful care of our amazing doggos while we were on vacation last week, and we would highly recommend her for anyone needing drop in care. It put our mind at ease knowing that she was taking such good care of our babies, and that our elderly dog could stay in the comfort of her own home. Thanks soooo much Bailey!”

About: Hello! I’ve been in the animal care industry for 4+ years, with a little over 3 years of experience in a professional veterinary setting. I currently work full time as a veterinary assistant, and work with both dogs and cats day in and day out. I’m a huge proponent for fear-free handling, and am proficient in caring/medicating even the most spicy baby. Very familiar with special needs cases and happy to help with what I can. I do work full time, however I’m available all day Monday, Tuesday, and Sunday. Willing to do some check ins in the evening after getting off work. Very respectful and non-judgmental of everyone’s space. I understand sometimes too that some pets may feel like I am intruding in their space, and I will bring treats (as approved by you) and I’d like to have a slow introduction as appropriate. You know your pet best, and I’m willing to do what it takes!

“Nicole was awesome! I was a hectic mess and she came to the rescue when I got called into work last minute. She was great! Thanks again!”
