“From the first time Amanda came over for a meet and greet with Tofu, she has always been sweet and gentle with him. At the end of their first meeting, Tofu felt so comfortable with her that he leaned over to give her kisses and asked for belly rubs. Amanda was quick to respond to any inquiries and flexible in her schedule. Having her walk Tofu on the days I have to go in to the office is such a relief!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since for 14 years :) Started out with my grandparents puppy who I trained and cared for like my own. I have an 8 year old cat named Toby that I adopted when he was just 3 months old. I love all furry friends! I am currently a student nurse on summer break, therefore I am available and flexible, ready to adapt to your needs and schedule. Whether you're looking for a quick solution or long-term support, I’m here to help whenever and however you need :) I’ve been trusted to care for many friends’ and family’s furry friends for years now. I will do everything I can to make you and your furry babies comfortable and happy 😊

About: I'm a part-time college student, But I manage to take care of your loving fur babies while I'm off of school right now. Owners will love the care I provide because I'm very loving and respectful of needs/wants. I'm very caring for animals as they need our help as much as possible. I love all kinds of animals. My care experience is based on learning from watching, reading online, or learning on my own experience how to proceed in careful matters. I've learned very risky situations on my dogs that I had in the past that I was not comfortable with but I managed to take risks. So I can say I'm a bit of a risk taker as well, But a safe only if you want me to do. Nothing is done without concerning the owner. These are a bit of what I can do for my dog and try with any other pet. I can bathe, clip nails, comb hair, and come up with tricks with treats granted. Availability comes great with me because I'm home with my fur baby of my own. I'm home throughout the day/night unless I'm doing homework, photography, or at the gym to better myself; Which I love too. This is great as well if you're looking to better your pet well being. So being available is my most accurate thing about me and it works for any working hours of dog owners. My special skills are loving, playing with dogs, and keeping them happy always while spoiling them with my love or treats. haha. I also love to take photoshoots with my fur baby as I'm trying to own my business one day. I love teaching tricks, spending time walking with them, or just hanging out. I'm here for dogs. Dog lover is my passion. If I could own many dogs I would. I'm those extra helping hands. I am here for you! I'm on break from school, so I can have more time to take them to play, walk, feed them, and potty/poop time. I also can be there for your fur baby on weekends if you like to go out somewhere and have no worries. I'm here for you. I make sure your fur baby is happy, worry-free, and calm and stays to your commands/rules. I give love and accept lovable kisses and messes. I also have a fur baby of my own, so I know what it takes. I can do any service that you want and try my best to succeed with focus and helping needs until you return to your favorite companion.

“Elaine is amazing! We went on a mini day trip and needed our dog Bubba to be walked twice. She exceeded our expectations and was very communicative with how Bubba was doing. She took a ton of cute photos of him playing and on his walks; he looked so happy. It was our first time using this app to find a dog walker and we were very lucky to find Elaine. She is trustworthy, kind and goes above and beyond. She saw a package on our front door step during one of the visits and she brought it to the backyard so it’d be safe; like I said, above and beyond! :) Highly recommend her for your dog walking needs!”

About: I have two dogs of my own that I've been caring for since I was about 5, and I'm also my brother's designated dog babysitter (he has two super cute chihuahuas). What sets me apart is that I truly care about your dogs health and wellbeing, and I'm not scared to handle big dogs. I will 100% always make sure your dog gets water at the end of the walk and make sure that they show happy body language. I'm also extremely flexible and don’t mind doing extra things like helping to train or showing up early and leaving late. I’m probably your safest and cheapest bet because I don’t do dog walking solely for the money, I also genuinely enjoy being around dogs and going on walks. Since my dog is old, I can only really get that experience with other people’s dogs. (Although, I am also a broke college student lol :p) I’m a second year college student so I have a few classes during the day, but I can work around your schedule as much as possible. You can trust me to keep your dog safe, healthy and happy. I understand dog body language well and can tell when a dog is happy, stressed, scared or showing warning signs.

“Personallly for us we were lucky to find her, she is always on time, always has a smile and gives us pointers on how treat the dogs and our dogs loved her. She is also very kind and patient with them and allows them to be dogs.”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life and have sat for friends, family and strangers! I grew up with dogs and would love to help out in any way possible! I am currently working online and have plenty of free time to walk, sit or just hangout with dogs! I would love to no only get exercise for them but for myself as well! I am keen to making other animals in my environment feel like they are at home! I have a pet loving significant other as well that would be more than happy to have a dog around!

About: I have over 13 years of animal caring experience being a pet owner/foster, as well as sitting for family, friends and clients. I've worked with rescues for over 6 years and it's been an honor dedicating my time and efforts to ensure every pet has somewhere to call home. It's always a privilege to take care of our four legged family members and their different fun personalities. I have a fenced yard and plenty of space for playtime and daily activities.

About: I'm well-versed in litterboxes, cleaning up messes and throw up, interacting with hyper active animals until they wear themselves out, and gaining the trust of skittish animals. I work with kids, I find pets are much easier. I'm a full time student at UCSC and a runner which is perfect because I can study while petting a cat or take your hyperactive dog for a fun run. I'm also a lifeguard during the summers so I'm well versed with the beach and the sea and for the dogs who like to swim or paddleboard, I can show them an amazing day. I make sure the home is as clean if not cleaner than when I got there. I make sure to gain a pets trust before anything else, prioritizing eye contact and belly rubs. I'm very adaptable and can work with older and young, hyper animals.


About: My mom and I had a loveable and adorable black pomeranian. I helped with potty training him from when he was a puppy. I thought him tricks, walked him, helped give him his medicine, groomed him, feed him & gave him water, and mostly loved him. Dogs are great company and are so loveable. I helped my ex with his tea cup yorkie. I feed him, gave him water, bathed him, cleaned up his pee pee pad, helped with giving him his medicine and I enjoyed his company very much. Dogs are not only our pets but a member of our families and can be at times like our little one. I miss laying down with my dog and my ex's dog also. Currently, right now I'm looking for a full-time or part-time job. So at the time being I have plenty of time to play, walk, feed & be your fur baby. I am available to board him/or her on the weekdays & weekends. I would always take out your pup with his/her harness or leash. I stay in a quiet neighborhood and I will always make sure he/she has food & water as well love.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for 5 years, my own dog, my brother’s 2 dogs, chicken and cats. I trained my dog from just YouTube and he is perfect. I’ve started to watch my neighbors dogs this summer, going for long walk and regular care. I’m currently on summer break so I have too much free time. I spend my days at the mall or at my brothers house volunteering to watch his dogs, even when it’s just for an hour. I have a fenced area and I’m very strong and fast so I can catch any dog if somehow the leash magically disappears. At home the door stays locked.

About: My pet sitting days started out when my sister’s friend needed someone to watch his new beagle puppy Charlie. My first step into this field started at 18 where I spent 4yrs working for a boarding/daycare business that offers care for all dog breeds and sizes from puppies to seniors as well as cats in private luxury kitty condos. There I completed 2 courses and became ✅Certified✅ in reading dog body language and communication. Promoted to 👩🏻✈️Shift Lead👩🏻✈️ and responsible for all food/medication prep and administration. I became well known for being able to get those who wouldn’t always eat to eat 😋 🔹Trained in administering 💊Medications After the daycare I held a ⚕️Veterinary Kennel Assistant position as well as a 🐾Professional Dog Pack Walker/Pet Care Provider position with separate companies for a brief window period before I decided working from home through Rover was a better route while my first born was still young. 🐣 Since then I’ve had a second child and spent the past 2yrs working as 🫧Bather on and off at a local grooming shop for dogs, cats, birds & bunnies 🐶🐱🦜🐰 I’ve taken a break away from working regular hours to focus on my youngest a development as well as my eldest as he’s on the spectrum 🧩 Available full-time for your Pet Sitting/Dog Walking needs! ⏰🫶🏻😊 🩵Please note that I do have young children (ages 10 & 2) they’re great with animals (: 🩵 🔻Cannot Board any aggressive pets🔻 ❇️Can Accommodate❇️ ✔️Can provide Overnights in your own home for larger breeds & those who do better in their own space 👽✨ I keep the day going with what things need doing that day and would take joy in having your pets be a part of our family. I live in a spall apt near the Stonehaven area on NextDoor. I have a vehicle and if okay’d can transfer or walk from my apt to the park to provide enrichment/exercise if needed/requested. Potty breaks are always on leash.

About: My goal is to provide the best care and love for your pets but making it affordable to all pet care owners. I’m available until 1pm Monday through Friday and am fully available on the weekends. I love taking the time to learn about each pet’s unique personalities. Providing quality care for a lower price.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over a decade of experience in dog walking, pet sitting, and cat care. I started pet sitting in middle school for family, friends, and neighbors! I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes, from playful puppies to senior dogs needing a little extra TLC. I also have hands-on experience with newborn puppies. I’m happy to care for your cats too! Feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and all the love they need while you're gone. I work from home so I can take your pet to the bathroom whenever they need, take them on walks, and play with them all day :) I live in an apartment but it is very pet friendly. There are many places for dogs to run around or go to the bathroom.
