I'm a remote freelance artist and online student, so you can count on me to spend a lot of time at your home caring for your fur baby!

About: I have taken care of all different kinds of animals. Dogs and Cats mainly. All ages from puppies and kittens to more senior animals in their 20s. Specializing in medical care (ie: medications, injections, appointments, specialty food, food preparation and special needs) I am currently a varied schedule but very open. Very flexible on times, types of animals and needs. Have lots of time for dog parks, walks and other activities. I typically have everything on hand to make any pet feel at home. All dog and cat supplies. Access to local, city, dog parks and regular parks for walks and bathrooms, if needed.

“Janette is an excellent dog walker. She is always on time, very responsible and very loving to my 127 pound German Shepherd who took to her immediately. He is so excited when she comes. I would highly recommend her services. She walks my dog twice a week.”

About: I’ve cared for others pets for almost 10 years including dogs, cats, chickens, and fish. Experienced with young and senior animals, and administering oral and optic medications. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets lots of time, attention, and consistency throughout the day. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, as well as overnight care if needed. I do occasionally care for other pets, but I’m very mindful with my scheduling to make sure every animal gets the time, care, and routine they deserve. I always prioritize being reliable, communicative, and making pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I stick closely to their usual routine—whether that’s feedings, walks, playtime, or medications—because I know how important consistency is for them. In your home, I’m very respectful of your space and make sure everything stays secure (doors, gates, etc.) so your pet is always safe. I take time to get to know each pet’s personality, whether they’re playful, shy, or just want extra cuddles. I’m also experienced with administering oral and eye medications if needed. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease, knowing your pet is happy, safe, and getting lots of attention. 🐾

About: I’ve always loved being around animals, as I have had my own ever since I was four years old. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or just relaxing with company, I’m happy to match their routine and make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Im currently attending college online and want to pick up work wherever I can. Schooling online has given me extra flexibility to work within my schedule.

I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own and make sure they return home happy and well cared for. I have two friendly dogs of my own with a big backyard to run around in.

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. In fact, I took my very first steps with a Rottweiler named Oso by my side! Growing up around these large breeds has helped me plenty with hands-on experience and confidence with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Over the years, I’ve cared for and loved several dogs, including a German Shepherd, Siberian Husky, and currently a Malinois mix and two husky mixes. I’m very familiar with the energy, exercise needs, and unique personalities that come with active breeds. While I have lots of experience with larger dogs, I absolutely adore small dogs too. I want make sure that every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient with shy or timid pups and always take the time to earn their trust at their own pace. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, running around, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I’m their new best friend ☺️. If you have a high-energy dog that needs to burn off some extra energy, I’m more than ready to help tire them out with plenty of exercise and fun 🤩 ! ❗️I’m available all weekdays and holidays! Although, i’m in college, studying Administration of Justice, and depends on my schedule for the semester since classes may vary on my availability. but it doesn’t mean i won’t make time for your babies! I do prefer for your animals to be treated at your home, because my dogs can be protective of our home and won’t want to put any animals in harms way.

I graduated college with a major in veterinary technology at TJC, and currently work as a veterinary technician. I do have a full time job at a veterinary clinic with my days and hours varying. Typically I work 5 days a week with a max of 8 hours a day. Due to this I am unable to be with your pet at all times but would love to spend my free time with them! I make sure to stay in close proximity to the animal and keep a close eye on them while playing with toys to prevent any injury. I am very knowledge on what kinds of things are toxic to both cats and dogs and am able to pick up on signs of possible varying illnesses.

About: I’m always the dog sitter for my family whenever they need me and my closest friends. Dogs tend to always trust me, I get along with all animals because I respect their space! I have an older dog who loves to cuddle but when he wants his space I give it to him and I can tell all the signs saying he needs space! I don’t have professional experience but I’ve been dog sitting for my loved ones for a couple of years now. I am currently unemployed and will start school in the fall so I have a very open schedule looking for as much work as I can. I always like to bond with the dogs I dog sit and get them to trust me.

About: I’ve spent the last 10 years caring for both dogs and cats, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m a big believer that great pet care is a mix of love, routine, and understanding what each animal truly needs. Whether your pet thrives on long walks, quiet company, mental enrichment games, or a consistent daily schedule, I’m there to make sure they feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for. I’ve learned a lot about dog nutrition, behavior, and enrichment over the years, so I’m always happy to support special diets, picky eaters, anxious pups, or pets who need a little extra stimulation to feel their best. I follow routines exactly as you set them—mealtimes, meds, walks, play, bedtime rituals—because your pet’s comfort matters most. Most of all, I’m here to give you peace of mind. You’ll get reliable communication, plenty of photo updates, and a sitter who notices the little things. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m free after 1 pm on weekdays and wide open on weekends, so your pet gets plenty of attention whenever you need it. I’m only available for overnights on Fridays and Saturdays but I can house sit till late night on the days I can’t stay overnight. If you’re looking for a time that doesn’t quite fit this schedule, just reach out—I can see if I can make it work with a little notice. A day with me starts by following your pet’s routine—meals, potty breaks, and plenty of snuggles. Dogs get walks, playtime, and mental enrichment, while cats get attention, cozy cuddles, and interactive play. Drop-ins include feeding, meds, and extra love, and house sitting means continuous companionship and care. You’ll always get updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: Hi there! My name is Cory and I am from Riverside, CA. I'm 24 years old and love animals immensely! I love going on walks and love playing with dogs, cats, and any other animal friends. I'm naturally great with animals and there have been times where vicious or otherwise unwelcoming animals have been known to be my friends in no time. I have owned dogs my entire life and I've owned cats for most of it. I have at least 9 years of experience of taking car of animals on my own. My wife is a registered animal care expert and has taught me so much about so many different animals. My wife even has her own website dedicated to teaching people about animals Wisepetclub dot com if youre interested. Thank you for reading my bio at all and taking the time out of your day to get to know me. I hope I get to take care of your pet in the near future 🥰 I have fully open availability, I just left a really bad job and I'm looking for work that I will actually love. I love animals so my wife suggested Rover I can go to any home and watch any animal for any amount of time required, thats all up to you! We have a small, but secure backyard with a pool if your dog likes to swim! Our fence is fairly high, but very big energetic dogs can probably get over it such as malinois or German shepherds. Anything smaller than that would be perfect. Our house is too small to watch, but my dogs are very friendly so they can have a playmate

About: A lifelong dog lover! I offer compassionate walks, pet sitting and emotional support for dogs of all ages. With experience in raising dogs throughout their lifespan, your dog will be safe, protected and cared for. I’m a full time therapist who finds deep joy in caring for dogs outside of work. Walking and caring for pups is my way to recharge- combining my love for animals with a calm, grounded presence. I am an extremely responsible person who will always treat your pet as if they are my own. I can easily accommodate to what preferences your pet may need to make them feel safe. Whether that entails medication administration, managing separation anxiety by providing a safe space for them. I am a very grounded individual who will simply try to provide a protective presence to your pet.

About: I love many animals, especially dogs. Growing up I raised many litters of puppies and have always been around dogs. A several years ago my senior dogs passed away. And it took until recently for me to get another dog. Since I’ve taken care of family dogs and realized that this is something I would really like to do with my spare time, and I’d appreciate it if you would let me watch your fur family member. While taking care of your dog I will treat them like them they were my own and make sure they are well-tended. I like to go on runs and hikes so if you have dogs that need that extra exercise I can provide all the exercise they need. Your buddy is my buddy. I am fully insured as a pet sitter and certified in dog and cat CPR and First Aid. Although I work full time from home but my weekends tend to be very free, so I have spare time if you work weekends or get off of work late. As I cannot pet sit at my home, I will be sure to secure all doors and fences at your residence. Please let me know of any specifics for your pet.

“Jasmine is doing a good job. She is punctual and shows great care when with Bob. Bob is always happy to see Jasmine.”

About: As a lifelong dog lover and experienced pet owner, I bring years of hands-on experience, care, and responsibility to every dog I meet. I recently said goodbye to my beloved senior dog, whom I raised from a playful puppy all the way through his golden years. That journey taught me patience, empathy, and how to understand a dog’s changing needs at every stage of life. I live in a dog-friendly home with a spacious, grassy backyard and a pool—perfect for pups who love to play, stretch their legs, or relax in the sun. Whether it’s a quick walk, playtime, or just some company and care while you’re away, your dog will be treated like family. You can trust that your pet is in loving and capable hands with me! Pet care is a natural and rewarding part of my daily routine. I'm a teacher currently on summer break, which means I have plenty of time and flexibility to give your pet the attention they deserve. My partner works remotely, so there's always someone home, and we don’t have any kids—just lots of love and space for animals! I've raised my own dog from a playful puppy to a sweet senior and recently lost him, so I truly understand the care and compassion pets need at every stage of life. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just some cuddles and companionship, your pup will feel right at home with us. Whether in my home or a client’s, I care for pets like they’re part of the family. In my home, pets have access to a spacious, grassy backyard for play and potty breaks, and plenty of cozy spots to relax indoors. I maintain a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with lots of attention, love, and supervision—especially since my partner works remotely and we're always around. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow their pet’s usual routine closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, or special care instructions. I treat each pet with patience, respect, and compassion, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Whether it's giving medication, cleaning up, or just offering belly rubs, I focus on the details that matter to both pets and their owners.
