About: With over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, I provide dependable, attentive care you can truly feel confident in. I grew up with dogs and began professionally pet sitting at a young age for family, friends, and neighbors. What started as helping loved ones quickly became something I genuinely love and take pride in. I am comfortable with everything from high-energy puppies to senior dogs and pets with special needs. I have experience administering oral medications, monitoring behavior changes, and recognizing early signs of stress or illness. Whether your dog needs structured walks, enrichment activities, calm companionship, or consistent routines, I tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel safe, loved, and secure while you are away. I am a full-time college student with a flexible schedule and also work with long-term clients outside of Rover. Because I value providing attentive, unrushed care, I do ask for advance notice whenever possible. I am typically available mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends depending on the booking. If you have specific timing needs please reach out, I’m happy to coordinate when possible. When caring for pets in your home, I treat both your animals and your space with the highest level of respect. I follow all instructions carefully, maintain cleanliness, and ensure your home remains secure. You will receive consistent updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pets are doing. Whether your pet requires medication, extra patience, structured exercise, or quiet reassurance, I focus on creating a stable and comforting experience.
“Thanks, Savannah! She took our doggie on walks while we were away on our trip. Coco connected with her right away the very first time they met, so we knew she was going to be in good hands. We really appreciated knowing Coco was cared for and loved while we were away! ❤️”

About: A lifetime of loving puppies of all shapes and sizes. I have experience with puppies and seniors alike. I’m a master of belly rubs and daily walks! I’m currently available for house sitting, check ins, walks & Belly Rubs. I work from home with some part time work once in a while. I love having furry friends to spend time with. I will treat, spoil and love your fur babies like my own. On overnight stays, I always leave a clients home better than I find it. I am a loyal lover of pets and have references to confirm my commitments and reliability.

About: I’ve always had a soft spot for animals and take genuine joy in meeting each one. With years of personal experience caring for multiple pets, I enjoy learning their individual personalities, routines, and quirks so I can provide thoughtful, attentive care. I’m patient, reliable, and comfortable with pets of different ages and temperaments. I focus on making each animal feel safe, understood, and at ease; I treat every pet as if they were my own. 🐾 I work part time restoring homes, which gives me a flexible, self-directed schedule. Pet sitting fits naturally into my day, and I’m able to plan my work around each client’s needs to ensure consistent care, attention, and reliability. Being self-employed allows me to adjust my availability, accommodate routines, and spend quality time with each pet. I’m looking to fill my spare time with something uplifting and rewarding, and caring for animals is both personally fulfilling and a priority I can fully commit to. I focus on each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine while in their home by maintaining a calm, consistent environment and following all care instructions closely. I respect the client’s space and ensure doors, gates, and potential hazards are secure at all times. I provide attentive supervision during visits and keep pets engaged with appropriate play, feeding, and rest based on their needs. I’m also happy to provide frequent check-ins with photos and updates on mealtimes, playtime, and naps. If there are any additional requests or special instructions, I’m glad to accommodate them to ensure both pets and owners feel comfortable and confident.
“This was our first time using Rover. It has exceeded our expectations! We would highly recommend to anyone! Alexis was punctual and perfect, with outstanding communication throughout!”


About: Rescuing dogs — especially puppies — is the most rewarding feeling in life. The most important thing with our furry friends is consistency. If you're stricter with your dog, you need a sitter who'll uphold those rules, not let them slide. I've taken care of dogs and cats for friends and family for years, and I've learned that it's not about what I want — it's about honoring what the owner has built with their pet. I work with the public in my day job, so patience is second nature to me. Pets are no different. They need someone who can read their energy, stay calm, and meet them where they're at. I also love running and playing with animals. Exercise is huge — but I get that a walk isn't always about distance. Sometimes they need to run. Sometimes they need to stop and smell everything. I match their pace, not mine. I don't know if anything really sets me apart from other sitters. I just genuinely want to be there for the furry family member. My availability in inconsistent due to Firefighting but I will always respond as soon as I'm able too. I understand due to my schedule I won't the best sitter for if you need someone daily, but if you need someone to drop-in, walk your dog, or just need a night out, feel free to leave a message. Currently working for a fire department, schedule can be inconsistent. Great for drop in play times and walks. Days off from fire department can be great for unexpected care. Currently unable to have pets in home due to renting rules. Will make sure to confirm and follow all rules with you before accepting the job.
About: I have owned pets for over 8 years; both dogs and cats. I have little experience with dogs under 1 year old, but I am responsible and diligent so I believe that I can handle dogs under 1 if I am given the chance. I have dog sit for a couple that had 4 dogs, and they were all over 50 pounds, so I am good at handling multiple dogs. I have never been hired to take care of a cat, but I have lived with cats for over 10 years, so I know how to take care of them. I love both dogs and cats, and I am excited to meet your four-legged friends! I currently do not have a job due to the fact that I am in school. I have class on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9 to 2 pm, so any scheduling would have to work around that. I am available all day on any other day to dog walk, pet sit during the day, or overnight. I am very attentive when it comes to taking care of anyone's pets, and I treat them as if they were my own. I love to play with cats or dogs indoor or outdoor. I will keep a very close eye on them whether I am staying overnight, or just dog walking.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
