About: My family and I had a dog named Honey who we loved dearly, but sadly lost in a house fire around two years ago. I love dogs, and I really miss having one around. I thought Rover would be a great way to care for dogs and make some money on the side! I have experience as an emotional support assistant for students with mental disabilities, a role that demands great patience and understanding. I study Mechanical Engineering Asynchronously, and I work as a barista part-time. When I’m not working I’m usually studying, so I thought why not pack up my work and petsit while I study! My academic and professional lives require great attention to detail, so any sets of specific rules/schedules for any pet(s) under my care will be followed diligently!
About: I have experience with both small/shy and big/hyper dogs. Neighbors, friends, and family trust me, both with dog walking and pet sitting. I am very comfortable and have experience with administering medication to pets as well. I really enjoy spending time with animals and strive to make sure your pet is safe and well-cared for. I have a pretty open schedule so whenever duty calls, I'm more than happy to take your dog for a walk or watch your kitty while you're on vacation. I will try my best to help keep your dog's home clean and organized during play and will make sure that your pup is well fed and happy!
“Rene was the absolute BEST! This was the first time we had to leave our pup alone and everything went so well. Our pup had the best time. Rene sent updates and was incredibly attentive. We will certainly be using her again without a doubt.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter than Brian! He stayed at our home for a full week while we were away and took amazing care of our two pets — our cat, who requires daily medication, and our older French bulldog. Both animals were happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved when we returned.”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with a deep passion for caring for both cats and dogs. Since I was a kid, animals have brought me joy, comfort, and a true sense of peace. I find happiness in being surrounded by nature and spending time with pets—it's not just relaxing, it's meaningful to me. I'm currently a college student, and in my free time, I love dedicating myself to helping others by offering reliable, caring pet sitting and dog walking services. Whether it’s a quick walk or keeping your pet company while you're away, I’m here to treat your furry family members like my own. I am a part time college student. I want to spend my free time taking care of your furry friend. What better way to spend a summer, than with our furry friends. I find joy and peace being in around animals and in nature, I will walk and bike trails but I find it more even more enjoyable when you have a furry companion with you :) I like to be very considerate and careful when in your home. I will treat it the way I would like my home to be treated. I would respect your home and your boundaries and I will care for your doggie or cat as if they were my own.
“Kyrra met Mack & he was immediately enthralled with her. She is good with dogs and you can tell that right away. She arrived ready to go and was excited to get to spend 4 days with the dog. She sent us photos that we loved & indicated they were having a good time. I arrived home to a very clean house and an exhausted dog. Those were two very good signs for me! I’m definitely inviting her back to watch Mack again. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and trustworthy dog-sitter who will love on your pet while you’re away!”
“Kristen was excellent with our dogs while we were away. She sent us updates on how they were doing and pictures of their activity. She was very responsive and timely in her visits. We’d highly recommend her for any of your dog needs.”
“Lauren did a great job taking care of our two dogs and watching over our home. It was comforting to see the pictures she sent, and it was obvious the dogs were happy and well taken care of in our home.”

Gabriella K.
“I have had Gabby take care of my pet dog Molly, who is a 2 year old Golden doodle for about 2 years now. I travel a lot around the holidays so I ask Gabby to take care of my puppy for extended periods of time 3 times a year. She always does an excellent job each time and is super responsible and caring towards Molly. Recently I went on a two week trip to Florida and I left Molly at home with Gabby. I left the keys to my house with her and she fed, walked, and played with my dog everyday.”
