“Mike was great sitter for my outdoor stray cat. Taking care of a stray cat is tricky because of unpredictable schedules but Mike was accommodating, flexible, and very responsive. Thank you so much Mike!”

About: As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. Having owned three dogs throughout my life and currently raising a pug, I’m experienced with the patience, attention, and care dogs need to feel comfortable and happy! Friends have trusted me to care for their pets and I take the responsibility seriously in understanding the importance of providing a safe, loving, and reliable environment while owners are away. I treat every dog as if they were my own, paying close attention to their routines, comfort, and individual needs. My goal is to make both pets and their owners feel confident and at ease. Trust me and I’ll be sure to give your pet lots of love and care. ☺️ I’m currently working from home and already am caring for my own dog which makes it easy for me to care for yours! I can open my space for daycare until 6pm, walk your dogs in the morning and/or afternoon, or do drop in visits to check on your furry friend. I have a friendly pug to keep your furry baby company! I usually take him on walks around 7am, 12pm, and 5:30pm in which your pet will join along. My neighborhood is filled with other dog lovers and am close by to parks to do more scenic walks with your pet. My apartment is also big enough to crate or fence off if needed.

“Aline was great! She followed through in every visit by spending time with our cat and making sure her needs were met. Constant communication with us and provided pictures in the rover card.”

“Stephanie was great! She took the time to do a pre-meet up with me several days beforehand so she could meet Simon and learn about his schedule and needs. The day of she was prompt and sent me updates during Simon's time with her, including a cute photo. I felt very confident that Stephanie gave Simon great care and I plan to work with her again in the future.”

“Laura was wonderful! I would recommend her 100%. She kept me up to date about my cats daily. She always went above and beyond. My cats are slow to warm to strangers and they both came around to Laura very quickly.”

“Kate came over to meet our dog Louie, she was so engaging and loved him up. I am going to have her back when I travel to check in on my dog and cat. I would highly recommend her.”

“Lifan was great and professional. She took care of Cookie like it was her own dog. Cookie loves her we would love to have Lifan watch Cookie again.”

“Priscilla is great! We feel at ease knowing that she takes such great care of our pug. Makes sure he gets plenty of play and potty breaks and gets hydrated and relaxed.”

Jacob N.

“Emily was an excellent communicator and consistent with her check-in times and care. We have an elderly cat and I immediately trusted that she was in good hands with Emily. It was a pleasure meeting her through Rover and I would definitely work with her again!”

Stephanie M.

“My kitties and I have only the greatest things to say about Charmaine! She was great with communication before and during her arranged dates—even during a busy holiday weekend, and she gave our cats so much attentive care. We could tell she took her time with our precious ones and let us know of any concerns while we were away. Would definitely book with Charmaine again.”

“Cheslea has been taking care of Isla for over a year since we first brought her home. She is responsible and caring and Isla absolutely loves her!”

About: I've had my own dogs and cats for most of my life ranging from easy going to skittish and temperamental. I've been a go to pet carer for family, friends, and for hire since I was a teenager. I have experience with pets with complex dietary needs, medication regiments, very shy animals who don't deal well with being apart from their families, and high energy critters who need lots of stimulation. I treat them all with the patience and kindness they deserve while they are apart from their owners. I'm not living with a pet for the first time in a long time and miss I am working part time, which leaves me very flexible to care for your pets on your schedule as needed for drop in care or longer stays with your pet in their own home including nights, weekends, and overnights. I have a spacious hatchback that I can use to transport your pets. I cannot care for pets in my own home due to a highly allergic roommate, but I can fetch pets and take them wherever they need to be.

“Casey has been very patient with getting to know our anxious rescue dog, she takes the time to learn his routines and sets him up to feel comfortable. They got along right away as Casey has great energy and understands how to communicate well with dogs and read body language.”

“I came back from a 3 week vacation to find my 2 cats and house in excellent condition after Yersinia took care of them again. We are permanent clients of her she is super reliable hardworking and easy to work with”

Ioanna B.

“Such a kind and thoughtful person. Treated Margot so well and took some really great photos of her to share. I will for sure be using her again.”

About: Growing up, we always had a family dog, so I approach my care as if your pet is a member of my family. My experience began in college when I would housesit/dogsit for a family near my campus who needed care for their dog when they went out of town or couldn't be home on time. Their dog needed medication, so I was responsible for feeding and administering the medication. Throughout the years, I've helped out friends and family and have been a certified Rover sitter for four years. I work remotely and take walks during the day, so adding your pet's care to my schedule is not a problem. I would love for your dog to join me on my walks or visit with them during the day for companionship and playtime. *NOTE* I am also able to provide doggy daycare in your home rather than mine if that works better for you. My neighborhood is great for walks with the ability to stay on quieter streets if your dog prefers less traffic noise. Regarding care in your home, I am happy to follow all instructions that keep your pet comfortable in their space. I find it very important to keep your dog's schedule as normal as possible to avoid any distress while you are away.

About: ***UPDATE! Opening my profile up to new clients again after about a year, as I have some openings! Feel free to reach out with inquiries!*** I have had dogs my entire life, and what can I say — I just love them. I have cared for dogs for 20 years, and even spent a few years training dogs at the American Kennel Club (AKC). I rescued my own pup nearly 10 years ago, and rescued my cat ~5 years ago now-- and have since been equally obsessed with felines. They’re incredibly different animals, with their own way of looking at the world, both of which I respect. Over the years, I have walked and cared for many family's, friends’ and colleagues' dogs and cats of all ages, before opening my network to my neighborhood. ***Key Notes: - Currently, I am open for dog walking and dog/cat drop-ins. Please see all service options (including add-ons) in my profile and feel free to reach out with questions! - For 60-minute walks, depending on location, weather and your comfort level, I can take your pup(s) for a hike or trail-run nearby! - I have a range of experience, from energetic and exercise-craving dogs to elderly pups who require gentle care and a patient, slower speed. I love providing care for either side of the spectrum, and all in between. The bottom line is: the safety of your dog/dogs is my top priority. I know how it is. I’ve used Rover and other services for my dog and cat, and I understand how it feels to entrust another person with your fur-kiddo. I am patient and will give you whatever you need to feel comfortable with me as a caregiver — from answering questions, to a meet-and-greet (in person or on zoom), to picture updates all along the way. Every dog and cat is different, and I want to know what makes your beloved pet unique so I can provide him/her with the best care. I’m a good communicator — from medications to leash/sidewalk politics to triggers and everything in between, you can rest assured we will be on the same page. I have experience caring for all shapes and sizes: - Chihuahuas and Terriers (my dog Jack is a mix!) - Bernese Mountain Dogs - Border Collie Mixes - Shepherds - Staffy’s - Golden Retrievers - Shelties - Samoyeds - King Charles - Schnauzers - Norwegian Forest Cats - Tabbies I am happy to take on puppies/kittens and can integrate any training you might be working on with your fur-kiddo. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can accommodate most walks and drop-ins depending on your needs. Just shoot me a request and I’ll get back to you right away. I treat everyone’s home with the same respect I expect at my own. I also take privacy very seriously. I am always happy to do meet-and-greets at a public park (or similar) before services. Again, I get it — you're trusting someone new in your home and with your animals. I want you to feel as comfortable as possible!

“Skylah is a wonderful sitter and took such great care of my cat while I was away and provided amazing photos and kept me updated every day! I look forward to hiring her again!”

“I feel so lucky to have found her! She is incredibly caring and thoughtful, always follows the house rules and instructions, and even stays a little longer to make sure Rudy is taken care of. I really appreciate how much love and attention she gives him. I’ll definitely book with her again! Highly recommend! ❤️”
