About: Since 2020, I have taken care of several pets of all ages and energy levels! The past three years, I’ve lived with, and taken care of three cats ranging from senior to kitten. There is never a boring day! Olive, the oldest cat, has asthma, so I am trained in giving inhalers and various medications. I have also taken care of puppies of all ages ranging from one years old to senior dogs. I love to play so making sure your dog gets exercise won’t be a problem! From the highly energetic babies to the slower, more easy-going ones, I’ll make sure each dog gets specialized attention and care. I have the most experience with senior dogs. I am able to give medications, help them with low impact exercises, and stick to feeding schedules to help keep consistency. If your dog has any special requirements, just let me know and I’ll make sure they have all they need! For all your pet needs, I’m your girl! While I work part time, I have a flexible schedule so I will have plenty of time to check in on your pets and provide adequate feeding and play time! I am available all days of the week with advanced notice! Every pet has unique needs and Im always ready to meet them! I have taken care of several babies who needed tons of attention and others who just need me to make sure they have their food on time. I’m always a text away and owners can feel at ease knowing your pet’s needs will be catered to thoroughly and that their safety and happiness is my first priority!
“Abby was the perfect match for our high-energy, frisbee-loving 70 pound German Shepherd! She came over ready to play and was very attentive to his/our family’s needs. She kept us up to date on all of Drago’s adventures with videos and plenty of pictures. Drago looked forward to his walk with Abby each day and came home tired and happy! Couldn’t ask for anything more! Abby was awesome, and we will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Shawn is a wonderful caregiver for any pet, and took great care in walking our elderly dog. I’d recommend her to anyone in need of care for their animals!”
About: Discount code if for first time rover users. I love all animals! I grew up with mostly dogs but have had snakes, rabbits, bearded dragons, birds, cats and so many more. I'm not afraid to be sturn, but mostly just love to play and hangout with animals. I've given hundreds of walks, baths, pills, drops, and of corse treats. All of my dogs knew how to sit, stay, lay down, and get the ball. I've potty trained cats and dogs, and been there to give them extra care when they get old. Animals are family, not just pets to me. Work part time at carrburritos, and I work as a all around cook. So I have plenty of free time to walk, play or whatever is needed to keep you and your pet happy. I can work Mondays and Wednesdays if booked far enough ahead. I take care of my Dad on those days. I have only taken care of my pets and my friend and family's. I am looking forward to a new lifestyle where I get to take care of animals and get payed to have new pet friends. It would be a dream come true for me. I have taken care of animals since I was a little girl. They have all lived inside with us as family. I've given hundreds of baths, walks, brushes, and treats. No fur babies have gone unloved under my supervision. Please let me know if your pets have any preferences, and I'll quickly learn what works in your household. I'm here to help you, and hangout with your fur babies:) If you need me to become a full time job we can work outside of rover to work out a weekly payment.
“What a great experience! This was our first time using Rover and I landed on Melissa based on her having a fellow basset hound and professional experience dealing with animals. We have two bassets, both female, and one of those we just rescued. Needless to say they are a handful. Melissa came over the night before to meet them and check out their dynamic. She didn’t have to do this at all and it was so appreciated. She walked them he next day, kept us updated and responded fast with ANY questions. Bottom line is Melissa is a pro and will be using her for all future basset stop and smells/walks.”
About: I have owned dogs my entire life. From outside dogs to inside dogs. My Cavalier King Charles of 13 years passed away last year and I’m wanting to fill my spare time being able to help out in your time of need as well as be able to care and love on your family member since I’m deciding to not own at pet at this time. I work a full time job that is 2.5 miles from my home. I am able to come home at lunch to do walks and play time. My schedule rotates so there are days during the week I am home as well as extended weekends off. I keep a clean, smoke free home. I am able to provide play time and walking. If your pet is house trained he or she is allowed to roam free.

Gabriela B.
“Gabby has been my go-to pet sitter for my sweet tabby for a few years! Lady is a very temperamental kitty who doesn’t trust new people easily but she fell in love with her and misses her when she goes! She always sends me the cutest pictures and videos of Lady so I know she is entertained for a couple hours a day. She always makes sure she’s giving her the correct rotation of food and even gives her medication when Lady needs it. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a reliable sitter for their beloved cats!”
