“Amy is truly a dog whisperer! My very barky and unsure husky mix warmed up to her within a few minutes and has been great for all the visits. Our other dog, a little beagle, has been a cuddle machine with her. I would recommend Amy with 10 stars if I could. We are definitely having her back!”


“Tanya was able to cover for our typical dog sitter last minute and did a fantastic job! She took our dog on long walks both visits which Teddy definitely enjoyed!”


“Andrew is our go-to sitter! He is consistent, communicates well, and always prioritizes hanging out with our cat. Highly recommend, and will continue to use him!”


“Daniel was great with my dog Pepper. He did a meet and greet with her prior to my trip to ensure they started out as fast friends. Pepper enjoyed her time with Daniel as easily scene in the many photos he provided. I had no concerns with him dropping in on Pepper my home and I appreciated his short-notice availability and flexibility. I hope to use Daniel again very soon.”



“Jackson is a lifesaver with our dogs! We have a 10 mo. aus-shepherd mix with aggression and fear issues (wont allow strangers to come near us, or into the house or backyard). After a few visits with Jackson our dog is now so happy to see him each time! Jackson is one of the very few people our dog allows into our home, as well as to hang out and play with him and leash him for walks (if anyone has dealt with an aggressive dog they know the struggles, so to find someone we can count on for our pup is priceless). I would wholeheartedly recommend Jackson!”



“This was my first time using rover and Aichon was fantastic! Always on time and took great care of my cat while I was gone so I didn’t have any worries while on my trip. Highly recommend!”


About: I have been a dog walker for a bit now and I love animals! I am able to walk any size dog, and I am capable of walking multiple pups at once. I can accommodate for dogs of all ages too, new puppies or senior dogs. I have also had dogs in my family for my entire life. I’m a recent college graduate, trying to earn some extra money. I am a very positive and energetic person! I love to be outdoors and exercise lots. Rover seems like an awesome app to meet some amazing, lovable pups! I work full time in the Southern Metro area. I am fully available on the weekends! I am completely free on Saturday and Sundays :). I am happy to go for long early walks in the morning or later at night. The pet and their needs should always come first. I love a cuddly dog that can curl up on the couch with me or I can go on a hefty walk around some of the lakes!

“Malka took great care of our anxious mini-schnauzer and was able to accommodate our unexpected flight delays. She sent a photo at each visit which we loved. Highly recommend!”


“Gabrielle took great care of my two cats. One of them I was especially worried about and she gave me lots of updates and pictures to let me know how he was doing. I really appreciated how thoughtful she was with him!”



“Alisha was great. She was helpful and understanding during an especially difficult time for me and when my plans had to change. Her communication was excellent and she gave my kitty the attention she needed.”


“Melanie was great! She took excellent care of my cats and sent great pictures of them while I was away! She even helped me out with pictures and taping over my car window after my car window was broken into. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a petsitter!”


“Holly took great care of our senior cat! She was thoughtful of what our cat might like, like letting in some sun light during the day. She was great at communicating and making sure we knew how our cat was.”


“Savannah is wonderful! She checked in on our kitty, who is usually scared of everyone but me and my spouse, multiple times over 10 days, and by the second visit they were friends ? We looked forward to receiving her updates which were informative and included pictures.”


About: I have a 2 yr old golden retriever of my own! I’ve had and taken care of dogs and cats since I was young. They truly are part of the family! I understand the anxiousness of being away from your beloved pet and am ready to help check in, walk, play or board your furry family member. I’m currently working from home and occasionally need to stop at the office for 1-2 hours. I’m also available in weekends! My pup usually gets 3 walks a day and plenty of time outside weather permitting. I have a fenced in front and back yard. I have a 2 yr old golden retriever who’s happy and playful. I have a portable crate if needed. Dogs are welcome on the bed and furniture.

About: As a dedicated and experienced dog sitter, I specialize in caring for senior dogs, reactive or aggressive dogs, and those with medical needs. I understand that each dog is unique, and I tailor my care to meet their specific requirements. For senior dogs, I provide gentle, thoughtful care, ensuring they remain comfortable and happy. With reactive or aggressive dogs, I use positive reinforcement techniques to manage behavior and reduce stress, creating a calm, secure environment. For dogs with medical needs, I am well-versed in administering medications and following specific care routines to maintain their health. Above all, I prioritize building trust with your pet, offering them the love, patience, and attention they deserve while you're away! I work full-time but have a good amount of flexibility during my work hours, which allows me to provide attentive care for pets throughout the day. I can adjust my schedule to fit in walks, playtime, or feeding sessions, and I'm always able to take quick breaks to check in on your dog or address any specific needs they might have. My flexible routine allows me to balance work and pet care seamlessly, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always make sure to respect both the pet’s space and the owner’s property. I understand that a dog’s home is their sanctuary, so I take extra care to follow any house rules and routines that help maintain their sense of comfort and security. This includes respecting boundaries, keeping familiar toys or bedding in place, and minimizing disruptions. I also ensure that I maintain a clean and organized environment, respecting the home’s space and taking care to follow any specific instructions about where pets are allowed, how to handle certain areas, and any special requests from owners. My goal is always to create a safe, stress-free experience for both the pet and the owner, ensuring everyone’s space is treated with respect.
