About: My dad is a veterinarian so I have grown up caring for animals my whole life. My first high school job was at his animal hospital where I cared for, cleaned, fed, watered, and bathed animals. Learning these responsibilities at a young age helped me become the loving dog dad I am today. I am currently in between jobs so my availability is wide open. I'm able to give pets my full attention to their needs. The busier I am, the happier I am! I treat all pets as if they're my own. I make sure they are comfortable and happy at all times. From going on walks and bathroom breaks to giving medicine and belly rubs, I make sure the pet's needs come first.

Leah is a 💎! Always great at communicating and my dog loves seeing her! She has went above and beyond for our family-even cleaned up a terrible potty accident that involved a roomba! Leah is one of a kind and I’m thankful for her!

About: I'm a 10 year old cat mom and a dog auntie! I have taken care of both dogs and cats for years. I am familiar with giving animals, specifically cats, medicine (my cat has had urinary issues throughout the years) and I LOVE when my friends ask me to watch/play/walk their sweet doggies. I am currently working part time so my availability is very flexible. I work Wednesdays and Thursdays and have majority of the days open the remainder of the week. I respect boundaries and any specific notes that you have for your animals. They are a part of the family so when I enter the home I want them to feel safe and loved.

About: Hey I’m Scout! I’m the Dog Person version of a Horse Girl, and I have been taking care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I have never been without a dog since then, having as few as 2 and as many as 6 dogs living with me at a time (along with 1 very dog-friendly cat.) I've worked at doggy daycares and have a unique ability to connect with a wide variety of dogs and am comfortable with all sizes. One of my dogs for many years was a 135 pound English Mastiff! My oldest dog recently turned 15, so I have experience with senior care, such as helping those with limited mobility or giving oral, eye, or ear medicines. My youngest dog just turned 2 and recently earned his AKC Canine Good Citizen title on his way towards becoming a therapy team with me. Our goal is to read books with kids! I am a self-employed illustrator whose job mostly involves - you guessed it - drawing dogs. My silly job allows me to work from home and have a very flexible schedule that can fit in with your needs. Typically I find myself working to the wee hours, and I like using my daylight time to do other things like play with dogs, walk dogs, talk about dogs, talk TO dogs... that sort of thing. I hope that you and your pup join me in my Rover adventures! I'm a self-employed night owl with ADHD. During the day I would love to play with your dog! I get most of my own work done at night, and my schedule is very flexible, with a preference for mid-morning, afternoon, and evening canine activities, making me the perfect fit for your pup's afternoon activities. Maybe you just need someone to run over and give your pup their post-breakfast and pre-second breakfast treat. I can do that! Forgot to throw the ball one last time before you headed out the door? I'll be over in a flash to play fetch with your pal. Need someone to take your pup for a walk or give them dinner because you got stuck in traffic on 24? I'm your person! (Also I'm sorry. 24 is the woooorst.) I'm excited to hang out with your dog whether you need a stand-in companion for a couple hours or a couple days! I provide care and enrichment in your home and take your care instructions and routine to heart. Please let me know if there are dogs, people, cats, or other things outside your home that may be difficult or triggering for your pup to encounter on a walk. Let me know your training practices, command words, and hand signals so we can understand each other quickly and fit reinforcing behaviors into our play times! I currently do not offer care in my own home because of my senior dog and his limited mobility. But I would love to spend time with your dog in your home and neighborhood!

About: I love dog and willing to do dog walking and sitting. I have walked and watched dogs for many clients, friends, and family over the past couple of years prior to getting my own dogs. I own two beautiful dogs with my partner who are happy and healthy. I am very experienced with both experience in sitting others dogs for 4-5 years and owning my own for almost 3. I am a strong 25 year old male who is capable of handling dogs of all different breeds and sizes. I offer dog walking, daycare and boarding. I am able schedule walking and sitting as I work from home which gives me flexibility in my availability. I have my own car, therefore getting to and from jobs will not be difficult for me. I am very flexible in the services I offer and there is no breed I am unwilling to watch. I will always work with you to take the absolute best care of your dog as they are important members of a family. I work remote daily so I will be with your dog almost the entire day aside from short errands and able to schedule walks at various times. I aim to mimic the care and comfort you provide to your pups in your home in my own. I want to learn from you the habits you have when taking care of your pets so that they are completely comfortable with the care I provide and that my time sitting with them doesn’t feel like a disruption to their life.

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life and have had my own puppy, Cruze, for 2+ years. I have been dog and cat sitting for friends and family the past 3 years and are well experienced in pets routines, feedings, cleaning, and walks (for dogs). My schedule is flexible right now but even if that changes I should be available for walks, drop ins, and house sitting. Depending on the needs/arrangement if we discuss the expectations there should be no issues! I treat both my dog or my clients pet with kindness and respect with but firm boundaries when it comes to safety, cleanliness, and well-being.

About: My pup recently passed so looking for some new friends to shower with my love and affection. In addition to my dog, I’ve always enjoyed watching friends’ pets when they’re traveling, but now that I don’t have any pets in my own house, figured I would look beyond my friends for some opportunities. I work remotely, so my schedule is really flexible for drop ins or spending time over at your house. Whatever your needs are, I can probably make them work. Every pet has unique needs! I’m flexible in making my services fit to each pup or kitty I meet. My own dog is an anxious, reactive old man, so I know how to be patient when needed but also love to play/walk/run with a dog who wants those things too.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life, and today I care for three of my own. Over the years I’ve had both big and small pups — from energetic, playful ones to calm companions — and even dogs with special challenges that required patience and learning. Through this, I’ve gained hands-on experience in understanding different personalities, behaviors, and needs. I’ve learned how to treat and support dogs with issues, always focusing on giving them the best life possible. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or simply providing comfort and love, I treat every dog as if they were my own. For me, dog care isn’t just about responsibility — it’s about compassion, patience, and making sure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently looking for a job that fits well with my college schedule. I have gaps between classes that allow me to let dogs out or take them on walks, and outside of class hours I’m available for longer care. I’m able to provide attentive care, plenty of playtime, and a loving, safe environment for your dog. I’ve been a dog owner for many years, and dogs have always been family to me. I’m often called a “dog dad,” which makes sense because I treat every dog with the same care and respect I give my own. I provide enrichment activities to keep dogs mentally and physically engaged while you’re away, along with plenty of love and attentive care, so you can have peace of mind knowing your dog is in good hands.

About: I have taken care of pets for many years now and am very capable of taking very good care of them. I am able to play with them and have them exercise as needed. I do have a fenced in backyard. I have a golden retriever who is super friendly with any animal. My roommate has a King Charles Cavalier who is friendly as well and loves any animal. Your pet will feel at home and feel loved as well. I hope I can be able to take care of your pet! I work from home Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays. My roommate is usually home between 3-4ish and will always let them out for the days I am in the office. My golden retriever is 7 years old, well behaved and loves other dogs. He does get daily walks and loves to be outside! He does sleep in the bed with me so if your animal is comfortable or used to sleeping in a bed it is fine with me! Whatever is comfortable for your pet! I do have a fenced in backyard for them to play.

About: I’ve been around various pets my entire life. I absolutely love animals and have had over 5+ years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I am experienced with senior pets, puppies, dogs both big and small, and cats. I would love to care for your animals! I am a recent college grad taking some time off in between grad school. Rover is my side hustle, but I absolutely adore spending my downtime in the company of furry friends! Since moving out of my parent’s home, I miss living with and caring for pets. This is a way to fill that void while helping others as well! I am available for overnight stays to keep your pets company. I l absolutely love to take pets for walks and play with them outside! I enjoy spending my down time with animals!
