“Jason listens carefully to what I like when it comes to training, as Roarke is in training to be a service dog. He also won Roarke’s affection right away. I would recommend him to anyone.”

About: I am a local environmental science student with extensive experience in professional pet and house sitting. Having grown up with dogs and cats, I have provided dependable care for repeat clients since the age of 12. I would welcome the opportunity to care for your animals and can provide references upon request. I am a local college student with a flexible schedule, allowing me to commit to various shifts. I am generally available to work during evenings and on weekends. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my availability aligns with your current needs. Caring for my own two dogs led me to discover a passion for working with animals, and I am now seeking opportunities to gain professional experience as I pursue a career in this field. To ensure both you and your pets are comfortable, I typically offer a pre-visit to meet in person. This allows us to discuss your specific care instructions and ensures you are confident in my services as a caretaker.

“Elizabeth is the BEST! Not only does she look out for our Pups, she looks out for us as well. I asked her if she wouldn’t mind taking the trash to the end of the driveway for me because I forgot to. She is a rockstar and did it for me. So helpful!”

About: Hi! I am new to Rover! I am 24 and have taken care of dogs my whole life! Growing up, we always had at least 2-4 dogs in our home at all times, all different breeds and sizes. We treat dogs like children in my family :) I work a hybrid job in office Monday-Wednesday so my availability is mainly Thursday-Sunday. Week days I am available to do visits throughout the day and weekends my availability is very open. I am very good at following directions and I can ensure I will keep your pets safe and do anything I can to make this experience as comfortable as possible!

About: My life is catered towards animals. I work as a Canine Coach at a local small business where I guide up to 60 dogs to have a fun and safe day each day. With my own animals I love hiking, various dog sports, adventures and training for fun. I have fostered numerous puppies for a local rescue and trained them until they found their forever homes. I rescued my own dog and helped him build his confidence, he was extremely fearful even afraid of me and he has blossomed in my care. I currently work at a doggy care but always time to look after your pets. I usually work in the morning so I check in with your pets when I wake up then a few more times after work. My roommate is always home so your pets are never truly alone when boarding with me. I will follow any and all instructions you provide so don’t hesitate to ask. No request is too big and I will go above and beyond to make sure your pet is perfectly cared for.

“I can’t recommend Kristen enough! From the very first meeting, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. She is always punctual, reliable, and great at communicating—sending updates and photos that give me total peace of mind while I’m away. I’ve noticed such a positive difference in my dog’s mood and behavior since we started working with her, he comes back happy, relaxed, and well-exercised every time. It’s such a relief knowing my dogs are in safe, caring, and capable hands. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and truly passionate about what they do, this is the person to choose. Five stars all the way!”

“Michael has been fantastic! Very communicative, attentive to details, and goes above and beyond to make sure my dogs have everything they need while I’m at work!”

About: We are dog lovers who have loved providing a safe home away from home for our clients since May 2019. Lindsay grew up with a dog from the age of 10 until she moved out of her parents' home and is accustomed to the care, love, and energy needed to make a dog feel at home. For the last decade, she's often been entrusted with the care of family members' and friends' dogs when they've been on vacation. Our home is large, with plenty of room for a larger dog to feel comfortable, 3.5 acres of wooded land for us to go on trail walks, and a safe, friendly neighborhood for street walks. We also have a fenced-in yard, so dogs who don’t do well or enjoy walking on a leash now have a safe, secure option for exercise and play time in our yard! We have a 5-year-old pup of our own who loves playmates, and she looks forward to meeting your fur babies! We are currently home full-time Monday-Friday to be able to give your dogs the full attention they need, whether for drop-ins, walks, boarding while you’re away, or doggy day care while you work or have appointments to tend to. We have a fenced-in yard with room for your dog to run. We have a crate available if needed, as well as a separate in-law suite if your dog needs some separation or quiet time from our energetic pup.

About: My name is Lora, I have over 22 years in pet sitting/pet care business. I treat each pet with tender loving care, as if they were part of my own family. I grew up with pets and have experience with all ages. I started pet sitting after our pets passed away. Caring for other people’s pets fills my love tank. There is nothing like the feeling of forming a bond with a pet. We have a huge fenced in yard where your pets can run, play, or just take in the scenery. If your pet prefers walks, we also have a super long driveway where they can get in some exercise. Your pet will never be left alone. I are home full time, so frequent play time, potty breaks, and belly rubs are always on our schedule. I provide all my clients with pictures and messages letting them know that their pets are in wonderful hands. One thing we can guarantee is that your pet will be taken care of extremely well so you can have a worry free time away. Since I work from home, I have a very flexible schedule and can pretty much make anything work for a client. My house is clean, pet friendly, and has plenty of room run inside and out. I care for your pet as if it was my own. After being around your pet and speaking with the owners you learn what the pet loves. So I try to include those special items in the pets day along with sticking to their regular feed and potty breaks.

“Julian has been working with my Max for only a short time and already they are good buddies! Julian is reliable and hardworking, he always walks Max a good distance and Max really looks forward to his time with Julian! We look forward to continuing our work with Julian!”

“HIGHLY RECOMMEND….All of the things you want while you are away to relax from your responsibilities with your pets. My high energy girls are entertained, exercised, and pampered until they don’t want me to come home! Feel confident leaving your pet in their care.”

About: I’ve cared for family and friends’ pets of all shapes and sizes throughout high school and college. Whether it was my college friend’s energetic puppy or my aunt’s elderly cat, I always loved spending time with them. I offer walks, feedings, playtime, possible vet trips if needed, and of course quality time with your pet in the comfort of their own home where they feel safest and happiest. Currently home for the summer which is perfect for open availability whenever and wherever. Available mornings, evenings and nights! I am flexible in almost every booking if needed. Pets are free to roam throughout the house! Dogs would have to be on a leash to be outside due to the unfortunate circumstances of having no fence in my back yard.

“The absolute best dog loving person you could find to take care of the furry loves in your life. She's so open and accommodating, making sure your doggie is loved and secure with her. She ensures it all fits into your schedule as well. Trust her with pets, house, and all. Love her!!!!”

“Scout is great! She’s reliable, knowledgeable on leash manners, & communicates how the walk went. Shes punctual & provides photos. Daisy can be a bit challenging but is always worn out after her walks with Scout (:”

“The doggies and their owners are very happy. All questions were asked. All updates were given. Last minute request was accepted.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs for years—both my own and through my professional pet sitting work. I’m comfortable with all kinds of pups, including energetic puppies and sweet senior dogs who may need a slower pace and extra patience. I also have personal experience caring for an injured dog (my own had a CCL tear last summer), so I understand how important it is to be gentle, keep walks controlled, and watch for any limping or discomfort. During visits, I make sure your dog gets a safe walk, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of love—plus photo updates and a detailed visit note so you always know how things went. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits. I’m also available for last-minute requests when needed, including weekends and holidays. Safety is my top priority. I always follow pet parent instructions closely and keep routines consistent. For walks, I use a waist leash/leash belt so your pup is securely attached to me the entire time—this helps keep both your pet and me safe. I’m careful around doors and gates, double-check locks before leaving, and I send updates with notes and photos so you feel at ease while you’re away.

“Liz was attentive, caring and punctual. She has a love of dogs and it shows in her interactions. She took the time to walk my dog as well as make sure he was settled in before she left. We would definitely use her again!”

“I am so glad to have found Ryan. Snoopy , aside from looking back at me, went willingly on his walk. If I can’t take my Snoopy for a walk now I know”

Ellen F.

“Dimitri is wonderful with Molly. He is timely and attentive.”

Cassandra P.

“This is our first experience using a dog walker with Rover and we are very pleased with Destiny! We needed someone to walk our dog 3 times a day for two days. She arrived on time for all 6 walks and sent pictures of each walk. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
