About: Hello! I am a graduate student looking to make a little extra spending money! I truly enjoy pets of all shapes and sizes, and appreciate the opportunity to spend some time caring for them. I love to get outside, so I’m available for walking or trips to the dog park. If you choose to have me come to your place, I would be more than happy to help with chores around the house. I have many years of experience caring for my own three dogs and cat, and have been described as thoughtful, reliable, and responsible. Looking forward to meeting you! I’m a full time graduate student but would love to find a regular lunchtime dog walking gig, and am available for weekend house stays if you’re going away on summer vacation! I ensure that all the pets I care for are loved while with me. I make sure to follow the owner’s instructions closely and keep them updated.

About: I’ve had several large breed dogs since I was a child. I am comfortable handling dogs that pull and are like little tanks. My rottie used to stop and sniff everything, and he set our pace on walks. I’m an adjunct English professor, so I can also help your pets with their college admission essays.I am open all summer, but will be teaching in the evenings this fall. I can’t currently care for your pets in my apartment, because my cats said no, but I will be respectful and careful in your home.

About: I have had cats my whole life and a family dog. I am an approved dog foster and enjoy getting to know pets and making them feel loved :) I am a remote learning student! Which gives me plenty of time to go out and spend time with pets. Not usually available on the weekends. I have 3 sweet cats which can be separated from pets if needed. My priority will always be to keep your pet safe and comfortable!

She has the energy and desire to keep up - and bonus, she enjoys the rain and snow!”
Annex pet parents share their Rover experiences
Natalie was amazing with my cat! My cat could seem hard to understand because she needs to come to you on her own terms. Natalie was so patient and caring that my cat trusts her completely! My cat loves her and adores spending time with her. I will book Natalie any time!

Will 100% book Angela again! She was flexible in accommodating my request after another sitter cancelled last minute and she did great with my cats. She had no issue administering medication to my geriatric guy and even bonded with my more skittish girl. She also took great photos :-)

Sarah is the most loving and attentive caretaker for your fur babies. She meticulously monitored how our 19 year old Jiggs was eating and drinking while making sure our three year old Rosie was given what he also needed. Her daughter is the sweetest assistant, doling out treats and pets. You will rest easy when Sarah looks after your precious ones!

Stephanie was very responsible and communicative. She is very patient and I felt very confident with having her care for Maya. It was the first time Maya had someone come into her home to let her out and everything worked perfectly!I will definitely use Stephanie again!

Thanks for taking care of Colt and Ripley, including giving medications. Each visit included multiple pictures and updates about concerns I had previously expressed (medications, not eating, etc.). Marisa was very easy to work with and communicative. I would definitely rebook!

Mikayla and Justin are simply great. They took great care of my dog Thelma, who can be very skiddish as she is a rescue. Mikayla and Justin spent ample time letting Thelma warm up to them before taking her out for a walk. I would 10/10 recommend them for any pet care and I will definitely be booking them again for Thelma!
