I currently work part time as a personal trainer. My schedule allows flexibility to care for your pets. Mon and Wednesday afternoons plus Tues, Thursdays & Fridays have flexibility throughout the day. I will abide by rules you set forth in your home. Your dog’s safety and well being are my priority. Walking & playing ensure your pup is well taken care of.

“Bridgitt was excellent. She made a trip over to our home to meet us and Fozzie. She is delightful and we all felt so comfortable with her. Fozzie took to her right away. She took notes and was all prepared to come back later and walk Fozzie! She kept us informed, letting us know when she arrived, where they walked, how often he peed, and sent us pics! We were so impressed. We highly recommend Bridgitt and we will have her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs as a child and adult, my own dogs as well as those of family and friends. I’d love to help your pet stretch their legs, burn some energy or go on a casual walk My remote with schedule is very flexible so I’m able to come care for your dog on the schedule that fits their needs as well as yours. I can feed your pet, have some play time, take them out to use the bathroom, or go on a walk. If they are crated when you aren’t home, I can crate them too.

“Alyssa’s bf, Drew, was an excellent dog walker for my dog! I requested an hour walk but he was m unable to due to time constrains so he offered to run with my dog during the 30 mins they spent together. Drew was on time, communicative, and took great care of my pup. It was unfortunate that he had to leave the city for work for a couple of months but I’d book them again!!”

About: I have had animals apart of my life since I was born! Although we do not currently own any pets since we love to travel we love taking part of pet sitting and dog walking! We started asking our neighbors if we could spend some time with their pups after seeing our son was scared of dogs as a simple way to help introduce him into the world of joy that comes with owning a dog. And throughout the process we got to meet so many different dogs and fell in love with learning all the different personalities and quirks each dog had. Since my fiancé and I both work from home we thought why not look into doing this more regularly! Which lead us to joining Rover! So here we are ready to help our neighbors with any of their pet needs! Looking forward to spoiling your fur babies! From my pack to yours, I can’t wait to hear from you! It's important to note that every pet is unique, and their individual needs may vary. Owners should tailor their routines to accommodate their pet's specific requirements, age, breed, and health conditions. Flexibility and adaptability are key to ensuring the well-being and happiness of your pet within your daily or weekly schedule. Initial consultation: Meet with the client to discuss their pet's routine, dietary needs, medical history, and any specific instructions. Take note of emergency contact information and inform the client about your availability. Maintain the pet's routine: Stick to the pet's established schedule for feeding, walking, playtime, and medication administration, if required. Consistency helps reduce stress for the pet. Safety and security: Ensure that the home is secure and that the pet cannot escape. Keep an eye out for potential hazards, such as open windows, toxic substances, or small objects that the pet could ingest. Exercise and play: Provide the pet with sufficient exercise and mental stimulation according to their needs. Take dogs for walks, engage them in play, or follow any specific exercise routines requested by the client. Food and water: Follow the client's instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, and dietary restrictions. Ensure that fresh water is always available. Monitoring and interaction: Spend quality time with the pet, offering companionship, affection, and socialization. Observe their behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, reporting any concerns to the client.

I am able to work with your schedule for the best fit possible! please contact me if you feel I am a good fit for your need or if you have any questions! I am looking forward to hearing from you!

About: The biggest thing that I believe sets me apart from other pet sitters is my knowledge of psychology and behavior which in turn allows me to connect and tend to the needs of animals. I have been told many times that I am the only stranger that their pet gets along with! I also am a part time caretaker for my grandfather. My responsibilities often include cleaning, shopping, and cooking. I really enjoy it. Lastly, I volunteered at a farm in Oregon for about 3 months back around early 2022. I was routinely in charge of many tasks relating to the care of animals including feeding chickens, cleaning the chicken coop, periodically moving cows to fresh pasture...etc. I am currently attending college online and work a part-time job. Taking care of animals on my own time works very well for me and I enjoy it a lot! I have been the primary owner of my 3 year old pug named Captain up until a year ago when I started to live with my grandfather to take care of him. Due to various factors, Captain now primarily stays at my parents' house (15 min away) which works out very well for everybody. I often have him over and also watch him at my parents' house when nobody is around. I take him out whenever he scratches at the door and take him on at least one walk a day. In between his meals I will give him snacks in exchange for tricks! That being said, if you are teaching your dog certain things, I would be glad to do my part in teaching as well! Last thing that I believe is very important would be cleaning off the paws with a towel after letting my dog outside when it’s muddy and wet outside.

About: I have taken care of all sizes and temperaments of animals for 6 years, no one is too much to handle! I am very gentle, playful, loving, and energetic; i tailor myself to the pet's specific personality to make them feel comfortable as possible while their parents are away! As a bus driver, I am available to care for your pet(s) between 10am-1pm, then after 5pm on any given week day. All weekend I can give completely undivided attention! I also have every holiday break and all of summer vacation off. I am only open to sitting at other people's home's; i do not have the space, facilities, or amiable enough cat to take in new animals as it stands! As for clients homes, I am capable of taking care of up to 5-7 animals at one time from experience. Care can look like oral medicine administration needs, basic grooming schedules, potty training clean-up, as many walks as needed, and even weighing out food/having specific foods per animal if necessary!

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 12. Always growing up with 3+ large dogs in my home. I also have helped my sister in the past fostering dogs and finding strays. I currently do not have a full time job and am available pretty much 24/7. I am very flexable and can work around your schedule! I do not care for pets in my personal home but when I am a client's home I am sure to keep a daily routine with the pets and keep them up to there usual activity level.

About: I've owned a cat for 10 years now and in those years I taught her how to sit and high five. I also grew up with animals in my household since I was born. I've sitted my grandpas dog for a week at his house while he was away and took care of my moms dog for a weekend. I also volunteered at a few shelters, the most recent one being NAWS. I just got a new job so my schedule for January is currently unknown. They still need to get back on me for the date that ill start but itll be 5 days a week for 8 hours a day when it does. While I'm at the client's home I would treat their pets as if they were my own. In my household I always make sure to spend as my time with my cat as I can. With my cat I fill up her bowl and when it gets low I usually fill it once more, this is because she doesn't eat much in a day and never finishes. If the client has a certain feeding schedule I would make sure to feed the animal at the times the client requires. With a dog I would take them on walks atleast twice a day, if the client doesn't have a yard or has a certain walk schedule for their animal I would take them on as many walks as needed. With cats depending on how long the client is gone I will make sure the litter is cleaned once a day and replace it every week.

About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly understand that every pup is different. I trained my own stubborn Yorkie with patience and consistency, and I currently care for my senior Golden Retriever who has hip issues so I’m experienced with both energetic young dogs and gentle, slower-paced seniors. Whether your dog needs structured walks, positive reinforcement, or a calm and patient pace, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, understood, and happy every step of the way. I treat every dog like my own and always prioritize safety, communication, and making sure you feel completely comfortable while your pup is in my care. I’d love to meet your best friend! 🐶💛 Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a very open and flexible schedule. I prioritize staying active and structured in my days — I regularly go to the gym and attend Bible study — which allows me to consistently plan walks and drop-ins throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks, including weekends, and I’m happy to accommodate last-minute or same-day requests when possible. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand how important trust is, and I treat every dog with the same patience and care I give my own.

About: Leave your pet in the hands of an expert! I’ve had my own dogs and cats since the day I was born! I’ve always had more than one dog at a time in my household so I know how to handle multiple personalities and any chaos that may arise. Leave it to me to care for them and not leave a worry on your mind. I’ll keep them safe and still have a great time whether it’s going for a walk around the park or house sitting and making sure things are all in order. I’m pretty open to early mornings and late nights. I don’t mind going on longer walks or shorter walks whatever you’re looking for. I’m pretty flexible when it comes to the walks and times!

About: I’ve lived with and taken care of cats, dogs, and exotic pets my whole life. I’ve been responsible for bathing, walking, giving them food and water, scooping litter boxes, clipping nails, and everything else your pet will need since I could walk. I’ve also pet sat for friends and family before, overnight or just for a check-in. I love spending time with my animals and I hope I get to meet yours too! I’m currently a student at USC, go Gamecocks! On MWF, my classes end at 2 so I am free anytime after that. Tuesdays and Thursdays are a little more spread out, however I should be able to stop in almost whenever to watch your pet! I am totally free on the weekends and can do anything but boarding your pet. Back at my house, I always make sure to be aware of my surroundings if I am outside, watching for other dogs, cars, other animals, or people. I will carry this same caution when taking care of your animals, whether in the home or outside of it!

About: I’ve had dogs, bunnies, and other animals my whole life! I just graduated college, and am looking for a good way to spend my extra time right now:) I currently have a very open schedule, so there’s not much that wouldn’t fit into my routine right now. Pet care would be the perfect addition to my routine:) I have a lot of experience caring for pets in other peoples homes. I love taking dogs for walks, and playing with them especially when the weather is nice!

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a kid and have always loved them. I have two of my own and am super excited to spend some time with your pup! I love meeting new pets and can’t wait to provide them with structure and joy! My work schedule varies but I’m always happy to make sure I spend quality time with your dog. Remove hazards, secure doors and gates, provide comfortable bedding, supervise play, use non-toxic cleaning supplies, and ensure access to fresh water.

About: I’ve had 3 dogs during my entire life all whom i’ve loved immensely. I’ve dog sat for many family/ friends and they’ve all had me come back to dog sit again! i love doing it :) I work part time at a coffee shop, so i’d have to work around that, i’m looking for a flexible schedule but to be able to fill my time in with animals! I have a small dog myself, if i were to have any body else’s dog at my home i would crate my dog just because he gets too playful when he’s with other dogs and can tend to be more aggressive
