“Jacob did an amazing job with our two dogs and home. He came out and met them the night before on short notice. He was a lifesaver and we will be calling him again! Our dogs can be choosy and they hit it off with Jacob right away. Great Experience!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Julie! She was professional and took amazing care of my pups (and fish) while we were out of town. Before her overnight stay she even came to meet me and the pups and brought them treats. I have no doubt they were well taken care of and will absolutely use her devices again in the future!”
“Timothy was awesome with my sweet boy Dozer! He did everything as instructed including medication administration and followed his special diet. We will be booking with Timothy again in the near future. He even sent photos!”
“This was our second time having Emily and Mari watch our pup Sunny while we flew to visit family, and all went well! It's never easy to leave our pup, but having trustworthy and reliable care for our home and baby is everything and allows us to enjoy our trip without worry. Mari leaves very detailed feedback on how their day is going when we check in, and the photos we were sent of Sunny were so lovely to see to put our minds at ease. When we arrived home, the house was cleaner than we left it, and Sunny was happy and cozy, even with relaxing music on YouTube! It's those little things we so appreciate. You can count on Mari and Emily to do their very best to keep your fur baby happy and relaxed while you are away!”

She was very attentive with our elderly fur babies which left us at ease to leave home and enjoy our vacation. We've already booked a second trip with her! It's a wonderful feeling knowing you can entrust your pups (and home) to such a sweet person. 5 out of 5 stars? We'd give her 10 stars if we could!”
About: As a stay-at-home individual, I am consistently home, enabling me to provide comprehensive care for pets. Regardless of their size or breed, I have a history of caring for various dogs/cats since my childhood. My affinity for animals is evident in my ability to handle dogs and cats of different ages. I possess a strong sense of kindness, empathy, and deep love for all living creatures. I am available most of the week, with possible exceptions on weekends depending on my schedule. I am committed to providing ample care for your animal as needed. I ensure that your pets have access to food, water, and ample opportunities for outdoor play. Additionally, I prioritize providing them with the attention and companionship they require. It is important to note that I reside with my parents, who own two dogs and two cats. These animals live upstairs, while I live downstairs. The physical barriers, such as doors and other furnishings, prevent them from accessing my living area. Recently, I acquired a puppy. If your pets are not well-behaved with other animals, please inform me, and I will relocate the puppy to the upstairs area to ensure a harmonious living environment for both our pets.
“Our pup was very happy being watched by Emma and we were happy to know she was in good hands and have frequent updates on how things were going. Thank you for taking such good care of her!”
About: I have had pets since I was a child and I love being around animals. I was expected to feed, walk, groom, and take care of all the animals I had. I enjoy the work and I am organized when doing it. I am used to taking the time out of my day to spend with pets and take care of them. I can adjust to any routine, my classes are flexible. I will follow any rules needed to properly care for whatever pet I am taking care of. I am very passionate about keeping the environment safe and friendly for the pet and myself. I will be diligent in whatever is needed!
About: A caring pet sitter with hands-on experience looking after dogs and cats. Familiar with feeding routines, short walks, basic grooming, and giving plenty of attention and play. Dependable, attentive to each animal’s comfort, and clear in communication with pet owners. I’m open 24/7 for all pet care needs. Whether you need early-morning walks, last-minute drop-ins, late-night check-ups, or extended boarding stays, I’m here any hour, any day. I keep my home tidy and hazard-free, stay close to supervise your pet at all times, and share fun photo updates so you always know they’re safe and happy.
About: I've taken an active part in raising and caring for many different breeds and species of animals since I was young, both for my personal household and others. I have handled, fed, bathed, and trimmed the nails of young puppies up to 8 weeks old and helped to bottle nurse and raise kittens. I have cats in my household that I regularly take care of and experience handling, loving, and taking care of older dogs as well. I currently help raise puppies, so I'm available for drop-ins during the day and spending the night with pets. I can adjust my schedule to what's needed most of the time if given enough notice! I am very vigilant and eager to care for and play with any fur-babies, so I can keep a constant eye on them inside and outside of the house. I will also stay near them while they are out to make sure that no harm comes to them.
“Desiree watched our two pups over the weekend at our house and we could not be happier. She was our first experience using Rover and she has set the bar high! Our meet and greet helped to calm my husband and I’s nerves. She is on top of communication with quick responses. Our dogs were loved and we could tell they had a great time with Desiree. Hoping we can have her watch them again in the near future.”
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life. I’ve taken care of friends and neighbors pets in the past while they’ve been out of town. Taking care of pets is something that I enjoy doing. I currently work full time and am looking for extra work mostly on the weekends but occasionally weekdays. Weekends I’m available at all times and weekdays I’m available mostly in the evenings. Wherever I’m providing care for pets, I make sure that they are in safe environments. Cleanliness is very important. I follow directions that I receive from the owners of the pets that I’m watching and give their pets attention.
About: Growing up, we had a Chihuahua, a terrier and beagles. I now currently have 3 labs and 1 German Shepherd therefore I’ve been around and am good with dogs of all sizes. I’ve experienced the puppy stage and with my oldest dog reaching 11 years old currently I’m experiencing the senior stage. I work full-time, so a lot of my free time will be in the evenings and weekends. However, my schedule fluctuates and I have short days and days off. With having four dogs and six cats currently in my home I won’t be offering any in home services as of right now or overnight stays in your home. I will be offering leashed walks of all durations and drop ins for your home on weekends that I have available.

“Took excellent care of my dog Bernie. She was flexible and understanding of my often changing schedule. Professional and on time. I would definitely recommend.”
Paul Z.
“I have observed Paul many times walking his German Shepard. Paul's dog is very well behaved. It is obvious he loves animals. We have a dozen dogs in our neighborhood and they all love him. He has assisted people with training their dogs, he is taking care of a dog right now. He handles dogs with patience and kindness, and draws the best behavior out dogs he works through consistent commands and encouragement. He would be a very good Rover employee.”
