“Molly is very friendly and personable and did a great job walking my pup! She’s also willing to help clip his nails, which is a big help!”

About: I've had animals all my life. At the moment I have 3 cats. But I'm my past I've had dogs that lived to 12, 17, and 14. I look forward to meeting your pets. I work from home a lot and am often available to let your pets out, feed them, walk them. Please be clear and upfront about your animal if it shows any aggression or anxiety with strangers. I would like to meet you and your animal before the first visit. I'm a trustworthy person. I would feel most comfortable meeting you and your pet before my first visit without you home. I would like to think this would make you more comfortable as well.

About: About Me Hi, I’m Pam! I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all breeds—puppies to seniors—and treat every pet as family. I’m organized, caring, and deeply dependable, and I’d be honored to care for your pup. Why Choose Me? Flexible & Present: I work from home and dedicate undivided attention to each pet—companionship is always there. Routine-Focused: I follow your pet’s normal routine closely—mealtimes, walks, play sessions—to help them feel at ease. Why I Love Pet Sitting Dogs and cats have been part of my life forever—I can’t imagine not having at least one around! I balance caring for pets with raising my son—I’m home, present, and fully engaged. We’re warmly present at all times—your pet will be with company and attention throughout their care. Thank you for considering me—I look forward to making your pet feel right at home! 1. Adhere to Your Pet’s Regular Routine As an effective sitter, I stick closely to your pet’s feeding, walking, and activity schedules to reduce stress and help them feel at ease. Consistency makes all the difference—pets thrive on familiarity and structure. 2. Lean on Written Schedules & Reminders I rely on alarms, digital reminders, or a shared care document outlining feeding times, walks, and medication schedules. Detailed care plans—not just verbal instructions—help ensure nothing is overlooked. 3. Balance Walks, Play, and Mental Stimulation Your pup will enjoy walks in the morning and evening, play sessions in the yard or with toys, and brain games like puzzles or training drills. This balanced mix keeps pets physically active and mentally engaged, which is a hallmark of personalized, attentive care. 4. Clear Communication with Owners I provide updates via text, photos, or videos—tailored to your preference. Whether you'd like a daily summary or only updates if something important comes up, I'll make sure our communication fits what works best for you. Clear, consistent updates help build trust and peace of mind. 1. Create a Secure, Pet‑Safe Environment I prioritize safety by pet-proofing all areas—tucking away loose items, securing small objects, and removing anything toxic within reach. I supervise pets at all times, even in fenced yards, and avoid assuming familiarity protects against escapes or mishaps. 2. Use Barriers and Supervision for Added Security To prevent accidental exits, I employ secondary barriers—like baby gates or exercise pens—when entering or exiting through doors. Even in clients’ homes, I discuss acceptable barrier use ahead of time to ensure safety. 3. Establish Safe Boundaries & Routines I maintain separate feeding areas and “own spaces” for each pet to avoid tension and provide comfort. Cleanliness and routine are central—each pet has its own safe zone, whether in my home or yours- 4. Meet & Greet for Confidence and Preparedness I always recommend a Meet & Greet before booking—this gives us a chance to establish comfort and go over logistics such as key access, gate codes, and safe entry routes. It also helps me anticipate quirky behaviors and preferences that enhance care. 5. Respecting Your Home & Access Protocols When caring for pets in your home, I ensure a secure access plan—whether through tested codes, spare keys, or lockboxes—and always return keys promptly. I conduct perimeter checks to confirm gates are closed, trash secured, and hazardous zones off-limits. 6. Open, Tailored Communication Builds Trust I’ll work with you to determine your preferred update style—daily summaries, photo check-ins, or notes only if something unusual occurs. Consistent, clear communication not only reassures you, but also ensures your pet’s care is seamless. 7. Emergency Preparedness Included I keep emergency contact info—including vets, local animal hospitals, and your trusted contacts—on hand. I’m prepared to act quickly and responsibly in case of illness or safety concerns. 8. Built‑In Assurance through Rover’s Standards As part of the Rover community, I’ve passed a comprehensive background check and adhere to Rover’s Trust & Safety protocols, including the Rover Guarantee and responsive booking protection. Our communications always stay within the platform to ensure transparency and security.

About: I’ve taken care of all types of dogs since I was a teenager. My family, friends and neighbors always relied on me to take care of their dogs. I have owned many dogs as well, including Golden Retrievers and Siberian Huskies. There was very little time in my entire life that I didn’t own as least one dog. I especially love to take dogs on walks. I have experience training puppies, I can administer medicine, and just love to be around dogs. Most of my availability is going to be during the summer. I am a teacher/librarian and spend most of my summer with my own dog. I would be available for walks, drop in visits, and I can stay in your house if needed. My home is a little too small for any boarding needs. During the school year, I can do Fridays when I am done with teaching for long weekend house sitting needs. I can also walk or drop by for a quick visit during the weeks before or after school hours. I currently have a golden retriever that can keep your dog company. I can easily crate your dog, take it for long walks as needed, and feed it meals. I will send pictures as often as you would like. I will make sure your home is in the same condition as I entered it in.

“I was so nervous to book a dog walker for my pup. Jen has alleviated all of those fears! My dog, Linx, loves her and the walks they take weekly. She is dependable, consistent, and so friendly. I highly recommend you book Jen!”

About: I grew up with dogs, so caring for them is second nature to me. I understand that every dog has its own personality, needs, and quirks—and I’m here for all of it. What sets me apart is my calm, patient energy and my ability to make dogs feel safe, seen, and genuinely loved. Whether your pup is high-energy, or just wants a cuddle buddy, I adapt to their vibe and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Walks and belly rubs—I do it all with heart and intention, just like I would with my own dog. Please note my house has stairs and I do not have a fenced backyard, so I cannot have play time with the dogs unless we can go to a dog park. Please also note my neighbors have a baby, so in order to be respectful to them and trying to help them as new parents, I don't sit for highly anxious or significantly barking dogs. I work from home most days of the week and my work is fairly flexible, allowing me to be home whenever your pet needs me. When your pet stays with me, they become part of the family. I create a calm, clean, and cozy environment where they feel safe and relaxed from the moment they arrive. I follow their routines closely—whether it’s feeding times, walks, playtime, or quiet snuggles—so they experience consistency and comfort while you’re away. I’m attentive to their behavior and body language, making sure they’re not just cared for, but genuinely happy and at ease. Whether they’re the playful type or more low-key, I meet them where they are and make sure they feel loved, secure, and right at home.

“Tayma did a wonderful job walking Birdie when my mother was taking care of her for the weekend. Birdie got so excited whenever Tayma came to get her she practically jumped into her arms. We definitely recommend Tayma to help with your precious pups.”

About: I have grown up helping to take care of family pets, as well as watching them and other pets for friends and family members. I have done anywhere from week-long stays to just pop-in visits. I am currently working part-time while home for a couple months. I will have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets! Whether it’s overnight or just daily walks! I always want to make sure the pet(s) is comfortable when I am entering their space. I know animals are typically pretty regimented (like us) so I want to make the transition of you being gone smooth.

“Katie is amazing with my dog. My dog love love loves her. Katie is very with with animals and is able to handle my 60lb pitbull on a walk (not many can say that)! I highly recommend her!!!”

About: Hi there! I’ve been around pets since I was five—dogs, cats, and one stubborn goldfish who thought he was the boss. I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent… and yes, a certified dad joke enthusiast. You’ve been warned 😄 I walk dogs daily—sometimes even on purpose. 🐕 I promise to give your pup a paws-itively good time. And don’t worry, I never take short paws on the job. (Okay, I’ll stop… for now.) Seriously though, I treat every pet like family. Whether it’s a high-energy walk or just some company while you’re out, your furry friend will get all the attention, love, and treats (with your permission, of course) they deserve. I’m local to Limerick, dependable, and always ready to make tails wag. Book me if your dog needs a walk—or if you just want someone to laugh at bad puns with your pup. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life—I’ve been caring for pets since I was a kid, so feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and cuddle sessions are second nature. I structure my day around giving animals the attention and routine they need to stay happy and healthy. I always make time for early morning or evening walks, and I’m flexible throughout the week for drop-ins or playtime. Honestly, spending time with pets is the best part of my day—whether we’re out for a walk or just exchanging life stories (I do most of the talking, but dogs are great listeners!). If it involves paws, playtime, or poop bags—count me in. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, I follow their established schedule as closely as possible—because pets thrive on routine (and frankly, so do I!). That means: • Meals served on time, just how they like it • Walks and potty breaks at their usual intervals • Playtime or cuddle time based on their energy and preferences • Any medications or special care handled exactly as directed If I’m in your home, I respect your space and your pet’s habits—whether that means a favorite window seat, sleeping arrangement, or quirky routine (yes, I’ve sung lullabies to dogs before… no judgment). I aim to make each visit feel like just another regular day for your pet—just with a new (and hopefully funny) friend filling in!

“Matt was very reliable and nice to Red ! He even brought him an extra snack”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I could walk! I truly enjoy spending time with them, walking them, playing with them, and making them feel like a part of my family when I’m with them. I currently have 2 dogs and a cat and I feel like there is always space in my heart for more animals! We’ve had our 2 dogs since they were puppies and have successfully trained them and I’d be happy to be a part of your training process. Caring for dogs in their senior years is a unique experience, but I’m up for the challenge. I’m currently a student a couple of days a week, but when I’m at home, I’d have plenty of time to walk, play, and care for your dog(s)! At my townhouse, we have a fenced in backyard as well as a fenced in play area in the community. I also enjoy taking my dogs to the local park and would be open to bringing your dog(s) along! At your house, I would follow your instructions on how you would like me to care for you dog(s)!

About: I grew up with Dobermans and have had Boston Terriers for the past 30+ years as well as many cats! With my lifestyle being flexible, I can care at any time of day or night. I am an empty nester so my schedule is very flexible. Multi tasking is my strength and I can handle multiple animals at a time I am very conscientious with safety, especially when it comes to a pet getting loose. My Boston terrier is a runner so I’m always on alert.

“Jackie's love of animals and their needs was evident on first meeting. Our dog Gidget bonded with her immediately. It is a comfort knowing that our girl is in good hands when we're away.”

Linda O.

“Alyssa is terrific. Immediately bonded with Baxter who now adores her more than he does me. Hmmm.. Seriously, I highly recommend her. She is always on time, communicates effectively - confirms times, let's you know she'll e there in 10 minutes. You and your pup can't go wrong with Alyssa!”

Mary O.

“Tonia is professional and courteous. She treats dogs like they are her own dogs. Tonia followed our instructions perfectly. We recommend her without hesitation.”

About: I have had pets my entire life. I have had cats and dogs. I am a lover of all animals. I have pet care experience from walking dogs in my neighborhood and apartment complex, as well as overnight stays for pet sitting! I am looking to pick up dog walking as early as same day walks. I am also available to do overnight stays or boarding depending upon requests. I am pretty flexible. I live in an apartment complex, but I live near a variety of trails and walking paths, as well as a dog park. If pet parents do not want their pet to socialize with other dogs, that will be accommodated as well. I have a dog and cat of my own pet staying with me. Will require friendliness with other animals.
