Kimberly was amazing with our crazy dog! We just moved and he was a bit anxious, but he loved her! She even offered to sew up one of the things he tore up in his kennel! She is so sweet and kept me informed on how my crazy little boy was doing while I was at work! I will definitely book her again!

I value Grace's help very much she has been helping me walk and feed my two chihuahuas for almost two weeks while I'm at work. She is very patient and listen to all my concerns since my pets are on the older side and can be a bit difficult with new people.

We (and our dog) love Jackie! She always does a fabulous job taking care of our dog while we are gone, and she makes sure he has everything he needs between her visits. She sends us great updates so we never worry about him. Thank you as always, Jackie!!

Janae was excellent with both of our dogs . Janae was especially excellent with our rescue girl. Our dog Nola is shy and can be anxious meeting new people. Janae worked with Nola and won her over and now they are friends. Janae sent several pictures of our dogs during her visit with our dogs. I have already booked Janae again.

About: I’m an animal lover! I’ve always had dogs and cats growing up. I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats. I also work full time so I know how hard it can be to get your pup out while working all day. Getting to be outside makes me happy, so if I get to take your dog for a stroll around the neighborhood it would make my day ! I currently work full time and still live at home with my mom. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats, so I know getting your dog outside on a day you work can be hard. I have off Mondays and Thursdays. I’ll mostly have full availability on those days. One of our dogs I adopted back in October 2025. I am currently taking her to physical therapy once a week. It takes about 4 hours out of my day due to the hour and a half drive to get there. But I love my dog and would do anything for her. So somedays I may have limited availability just because of her appointments. Getting my dogs and myself out everyday is super important to me. I unfortunately don’t have a fenced in backyard. So each time my dogs go out they either go for a walk or a little sniff walk. Both my dogs sleep with either me or my mom. They are well loved in this house! The wellbeing of our pets are so important to me.

Kate was really awesome with walking my dog Chase. I have a big German Shepard and I was worried about him being too much for someone. Kate is amazing with animals and my dog took to her right away. She had no issues walking him and he’s strong and doesn’t like other dogs but I felt totally at ease which lifted a huge weight for me as I recover from surgery.

Thanks for your help Adam! I really appreciate it! Yes you’ll be hearing from us again. 😊 🐾 They were happy to see me but I could tell they were “pooped” out from the walk. Thanks again!

About: I've been around animals for as long as I can remember. We've had cats, a dog, and several guinea pigs so I am familiar with their behaviors. I've been pet sitting through Rover now for almost 3 years. I’ve volunteered at anderson animal shelter with the cats and a few years ago I volunteered in the wildlife department there and learned to feed baby birds. I have incubated three different litters of abandoned duck eggs and raised them for about a week before giving them to the shelter to live a proper duck life. I currently am not employed but I am in nursing school at Aurora University. Im still able to petsit if it works with my class and clinical schedule. This summer I’ll be available full time! I make sure every animal is well cared for. I have lots of patience for animals and will do whatever is necessary to make sure they eat and go potty. It's important to me that the animals are comfortable with myself, so I will spend extra time with them in order to get them to that point.

About: I've watched and cared for both cats and dogs since childhood. I have one lovely cat of my own and have raised and cared for a total of four dogs and three cats from family and friends. I do driver gig work I.e. doordash, postmates etc. My availability is very flexible for this reason, although my wife and I share a car so I ride an electric scooter during the day. I'm a physically fit 25 year old, taking your pups for a walk/jog will be quite literally, a walk in the park haha. I treat my clients as if they're mine, making sure they're safely leashed up before the door opens. When it comes to playtime I find it best to let them show me how rough they want to play.

About: We are a family of four that have taken care of several dogs in the past. We have a nice fenced in yard and a medium sized house. We do have a small hound/lab mix which is a male and friendly. Our youngest child is 13 and our oldest is 17. We are looking forward to helping out a dog owner in need of walking, feeding, and/or boarding. If boarding, please supply food, their favorite toys.

About: I have regularly dog-sat for a couple different families in my neighborhood for two years. In my experience, I have only been asked to check in on them a few times a day to play with them, let them outside, and feed them. One of the dogs I cared for needed medications twice a day, so I have experience with that. I’ve only had experience with boarding a dog once, but it was successful! The sweet little dog slept in my bed with me. I don’t mind having a big dog sleep on my bed, though, as my own dog is a cuddly 80-lb Labrador. Walking dogs is something I love to do because I enjoy being outside and getting exercise! I have been walking dogs for years because I have always had one in my home. I love meeting and playing with dogs of all sizes; I have never been afraid of them! Since I was a little girl, I have enjoyed playing with my own dogs, as well as ones I would see outdoors. I just graduated college, so I’m home & trying to figure out a job, but my schedule is open as of now. I will be working part-time for my dad, but those hours are not set yet. I am used to taking dogs out to go potty with or without a fenced-in yard. I can put a harness on a dog for walks, and I can put them in a crate when I leave (if preferred by owner).

Kassandra is marvelous! She's friendly, kind, and very reliable. My dogs adore her! She's been a great help while I've been recovering from surgery; her dog walking has made Birdie and Gracie so much happier and calmer. I would use her services again in a minute!

About: I am currently available in the afternoons between 1:15-3:15 for dog walking your fur-buddy! We adopted a senior lab/golden mix a few years back, and we currently have a 6 year old lab who is best friends with our 5 year old kiddo! Please let me know if you have any questions or how I can help! I am currently a stay at home parent and have availability in the afternoons while my kiddo is at school. My 5 year old absolutely adores dogs, and while I am available for walks in the afternoon, he would love to meet new dogs and join me if there was an additional time needed! Please let me know if you have a different time-frame needed and we may be able to help out! I know the importance of coming home at night to a house just as you left it. I will treat your home like my own.

About: My energy to match each animal is above many other sitters. I love to stay active and go on adventures. Snuggle time and training time is equally important. If your pet loves attention, then we will be a great match. I worked in a Shelter/Daycare and loved every minute of it. I am currently taking care of 2 elderly clients in their home part-time and would love to fill my time with your precious family pet. I would be unable to take your pet in my home at this time. My preference would be in your home which is more comfortable for your pet. OVER 30 MILES TRAVEL +$10 EACH WAY.

Our pup loves Don, and we are so happy we found him. He really loves dogs! Don took her for a much needed long walk mid day when we were out of town; sent us pics, gave us peace of mind to leave her. The Rover app makes scheduling quick, and a smooth transaction.

Airing is an extremely kind and friendly person. I knew the second I met her that she would be great to care for my dog. She listened to my dog's cues and took it at her pace which tells me Airin is very knowledgeable in caring for animals. She provided me with a detailed report on how my dog was during the walk and took lots of pictures. I know I will be using Airin to care for my dog again! Thank you!!
