“Jasmine is an awesome dog walker! She was very attentive and left some of the best notes I've ever had from a dog walker/sitter, which I really appreciated. She also used rover cards, which helps a ton, so I know where Moe walked and how far during the day. 10/10 will use again. I can also tell she has a lot of good experience working with animals. Thanks Jasmine!”

About: I’ve been responsible for friends and family’s pets since roughly 16, more recently cats in the last 4 years. Plenty of experience all the way from small skittish beagles to large reactive pit mix’s. The key is patience and that’s one thing I can promise with your pet, understanding and dealing with different breeds, ages, sizes, behaviors and sometimes even disabilities/health concerns (we love em all). Also have experience with cats, all the way to senior cats with disabilities/health concerns (hearing & kidney failure) to fat cats with spicy attitude, I would like to say I have a plethora of different experience to care for your pet. Lastly, I think I would be a great sitter by being patient and simply understanding what pets mean to people! I do work full time in office but have work from home flexibility, as well as I pick my hours so can be available if needed. I prefer boarding on the weekends but can be available during the week! I can be available to let your dog out every 2 hours if needed, as well as give medication, feed them, and play with them as well. I live in a 1BR Deluxe duplex, have half of the first floor house to myself, so ample room for another or two. Do have liter box, as well as enough space for another if needed. As well as enough space for a dog crate and their favorite toys, food and treats :) My young pit mix has plenty of space shared with Gibby my cat, but they always choose to lay on the same bed together !

About: I've been caring for friends' and family's pets since high school, and I truly love every kind of animal. Whether it's a tiny pup or a giant breed, I make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from playful puppies who need to burn off energy to seniors who need a slower pace and extra patience. Pets aren't just animals to me. They're family, and I treat them like my own. I'm back and taking new clients! I work part-time and remotely, so my schedule is flexible for dog walks and drop-in visits during mornings, afternoons, and weekends. Whether you need a regular midday walk or a few check-ins while you're out, I can be consistent and reliable so your pet's routine stays on track. All my visits happen at your home, so your pet stays comfortable in their familiar space. I follow your instructions exactly, from feeding schedules and medications to potty breaks and walking routes. I always double-check that doors and gates are locked before I leave, and I'll send photo updates after every visit so you know your pet is safe and happy. On walks, I keep dogs securely leashed and stay alert around other dogs, traffic, and wildlife.

About: I’ve always had animals of my own, basically since I was old enough to walk. I started my own pet-sitting business when I was 13. I’m the go-to for friends and family when they need their babies cared for and I love every breed. I studied veterinary medicine for a number of years and have more recently begun to train dogs, as well. I work full-time but I make my own schedule. I also live just a few minutes away from my work and can pop back to my house when need be. I’m already taking care of our senior dog, our new puppy, and our two cats. I love being outside and taking the babies for walks. I have a fenced in yard as well as two other dogs and two other cats. I have a large crate as well as two portable enclosures and no shortage of extra bowls, blankets, toys, and towels. I live in a great neighborhood and there is a park a block away. It’s important to me that animals are well taken care of and I love spending extra time playing and snuggling with any babies I get to hang out with.

About: I seem to be a magnet for anxious dogs and cats! Both my senior cat and adolescent dog have behavioral issues/anxiety, and while it has its challenges, I find bonding with these guys can be the most rewarding experience. Between slow, gentle movements, not rushing a bond, and having lots of treats on hand, I've learned that "difficult" personalities don't always have to be so hard. I work 8-5 on weekdays, with Mondays and Fridays being working-from-home days. I can easily incorporate lunch-time and evening visits into my schedule during the week with open availability on weekends. After adopting an anxious/reactive dog, my partner and I have invested countless hours into a training program that works for us. Through this experience, I've learned the power of positive reinforcement, consent for touch, and patience even when it's the most difficult to find it. I'm a huge believer in redirecting unwanted behavior rather than punishment of any kind. Love and respect is the driving force behind all of my interactions with animals!

About: I’ve been doing overnight dog sitting for 7 years, I have many reoccurring parents reach out to me! I am a student getting my masters who loves to go on walks! I have quite the busy schedule but I prioritize the pets as much as possible! When I’m not at school I’m always sitting around with the pets so they aren’t alone and stay as much at the house as I can! I care for the pets just like I would if they are mine, I always find time to make sure they are not left alone for an extended people of time and they always love me!

About: I’ve had dogs all my life. My dad used to train labs for retrieving pheasants as a child. I’ve always been a responsible pet owner. From rescue to full breed, puppies and seniors; large or small, all have gone through puppy training, and always up to date on any veterinary care. I’m able to administer meds and/or shots. They are not pets, but a part of our family. Our dogs are walked daily. I would love to walk and care for yours if my services are needed for your fur babies. Because I’m a stay at home dog mom, my schedule is super flexible to help with your pets needs. Walking, house sitting, transport, meds distribution. We have two dogs and two cats in our home. I’m able to walk yours, care for yours, administer meds, transport and pet sit in your home.

“This past week was my first time utilizing Rover and I feel like I hit the jackpot with Carli. I work long days and Carli has been coming over in the mornings to walk my dog Ding. From the get go Carli has been nothing but professional, kind, and very easy to work with, and it’s really out my mind at ease as far as leaving for work every day. Carli even went above and beyond one morning when Ding had a very minor emergency and hung out until I was able to get home. It’s very apparent she cares very much for the animals she’s taking care of. We really appreciate you Carli!”

About: From my Freshman year to Senior year of high school I have been walking my neighborhood dogs everyday after school. I am great with animals considering I have also grew up with a Labrador and a french bulldog. As a college student missing her dogs, I would be happy to care for your animal. One thing that also sets me apart is that my roommate also uses rover and I helped her occasionally which has given me lots of experience with this app! Personally, I believe that I am great with animals after the experience I have had, and you can trust me to care for your furry friend :) I am currently a college student and athlete but my schedule is pretty open currently. I am free during the week everyday, but I am usually busy around 4-9 PM on weekdays due to soccer practice. I will treat any pet in my clients home like it is my own. I treat my own dogs with gentle care and love. I love giving attention to dogs that are energetic and I will always comfort any animal that is in a sleepy mood. Lastly, my roommate uses rover and I have helped her take care of other pets which has also given me some experience!

About: I have cared for animals since I can remember- I grew up on a farm and my first ever job was at a pet store where we had extensive education about animal behavior and nutrition. I started fostering animals after college and while I don't do that full time anymore - cats and dogs always seems to find their way to our house when in need. I have done dog walking and house/ cat sitting on and off for friends and friends of friends for years and I always go out of my way to find more animals to cuddle. This gig seems like the best way to do that! I work 12 hour shifts only a couple days a week so I have many free days for pet care. I am home all the days I'm not working and can spend it with furry friends! I have a fenced in back yard and tons of walkable space near my house for plays and exercise for your baby. I am good at going with the flow of whatever the fur baby's energy is but I am also great at following a routine for your baby as well.
