“Beth is always so good with our girl Kira! She has been very attentive to her needs and helps with any training instruction. We could not ask for a better person to check on our fur baby!!”

Samantha B.

“Estefania was wonderful. She always arrived punctually and took Mr. Bean for his full walk and gave me feedback about it. She asked questions when needed since she was new to us, and showed affection towards Mr. Bean, who absolutely loved her. I am so glad to have met her and will definitely be using her again in the future if she agrees.”

“Jennifer is so great! I have used her a handful of times now for dog walking. She provides very detailed updates during her walk and always listens if I provide her with different instructions for the day. She also quickly caught on to what our dog likes to do - play fetch versus going for walks so she takes time to play fetch. Definitely recommend booking her!”

“I love Zoryna! She is timely and reliable. My dog, Riley, loves her to death! He gets so excited when she arrives for his walk. I am able to see that Zoryna truly loves dogs. Riley took an immediate liking to her. I have used Zoryna multiple times per day for several consecutive days. She is highly recommended. Zoryna is definitely a keeper!”

“Melissa is great with our dog, I felt better knowing she was there to take him for a walk and give him love while we were at work. Getting a report of where she walked our dog and having a picture sent to us gave me comfort :) Hope to make her our regular dog walker!!!”

About: I have had a love for animals since I was a young child. At the age of 8, against my parents wishes I snuck in an abandoned cat and it ended up being where my love for animals began. We have had many types of pets since then. Currently we have a 3 year-old German Shepherd whom we rescued from a shelter at 4 months of age. We also have a 1 year old Australian Cattle dog who is super energetic. I love spending time with animals, dogs in particular, because they are so playful, happy and full of unconditional love. I am responsible, caring and will take great care of you pet because I know that they are not only “pets” but are also members of your family. I will care for your pet like I would care for my own pets. I work full-time as a nurse practitioner but just started working some days from home. I figured, why not do something I love while also getting exercise at the same time. Note: the only breed of dog that I will not board in my home are pitbulls. My daughter had a traumatic experience with a pitbull so she is very triggered by that breed. I will gladly watch pitbulls in your home and care for them outside of my home. I think they do get a bad reputation for being an aggressive breed but due to our experience, we unfortunately don’t feel comfortable having them around our children. I am able to mainly available for pet care on the weekends. I am able to accomplish most evening/late evening or very early morning walks. Every other Tuesday I work from home so am able to break up my schedule this day. I care for my dogs in my backyard, which is fenced in. She is able to run around freely because we do have a large yard which allows her to burn off her energy. We also play fetch and she is able to spend a lot of her time running around there. We also go for walks around the neighborhood.

About: I’m a retired nurse who now wants to turn my nurturing skills to animals! I have had dogs and cats for many years (currently one dog) and have cared for others’ pets as well. I have experience administering medication to both cats and dogs. My dog Rocky and I are excited at the thought of having your pet in our home! We promise to taking loving care of your fur baby. I am usually home other than watching my grandchildren several hours a week. This is a flexible arrangement which allows me to frequently check in at home.

About: I worked at a doggy daycare/boarding for a year. I have experience with all different breeds of dogs. I have a flexible schedule and I’m willing to work with your busy schedule.

I love all animals and I can’t wait to meet yours! I work full time remotely so I have time to be with your family member all the time if needed. I work 8-4 where it’s flexible timing. I believe all animals deserve love and affection. I’m patient if your furry friend needs more time to warm up to me or if they need space. I live in an animal friendly apartment complex with plenty of open grass and a playground down the street that your pet will enjoy.

About: In my life outside of Rover, I’m a therapist for humans — but taking care of dogs is therapeutic for me! I have had pets all my life -- cats, dogs, hermit crabs, fish, and horses. I have my own pup that I love more than anything and live in a cat household with 4 kitties. I am very experienced in caring for animals and have pet sit for friends and family while they are away. My friend said "Anyone else, I would be worried, but I'm not worried about you taking care of my dog...I see how much you love yours and how well you treat her, so I have absolutely concerns going out of town." Current people therapist looking to get therapy from animals by helping you! I have a flexible schedule and love animals. Able to pet sit, drop by, or dog walk! My home has too many cats (4) and one dog so I would pet sit in your home, treating it as if I were a guest and treating your dog(s) or cat(s) like I treat mine! (which means a lot of love)

About: I’ve grown up with cats, but I’ve taken care of multiple dogs of various sizes and ages for years. I’m good at wearing them out on long walks or just playing, and I don’t mind giving them bath if needed or any other medical or cleaning care. I currently work pretty consistently, but I typically start around 8:30am and I get out earlier in the day rather than evenings so I could watch your pet after 4pm or so. I also mainly have the end of Saturday and Sunday-Monday off as well so those are times where I’m completely free. I will constantly spend time with time with them, buy either playing with their toys, or taking them on nice long walks or runs. I’m alright with crating them if need be, and I don’t mind if you have a large dog. They’re just more fun to play with.

About: My full time job is a teacher. But for the summer months, I’m spending time taking care of my other favorites, dogs and cats ! I am a teacher working rover for the summer! I am available for pet care everyday of the week for walking, sitting, and potty breaks. I promise to feed, walk, play with, groom, clean up after, monitor health, give affection, keep routine, and ensure safety and comfort at all times!

About: Hi Pet Parents! My husband’s “cat and certain dogs” allergy has evolved into a full blown, dangerous asthma situation with all fur babies. (Yes, he’s tried the inhalers, etc). It has become painfully clear, having pets with dander in our home is impossible. I DO love my husband, but I miss having fur babies around! As someone who has so much LOVE for and experience with animals, I have always helped others with their pets. It was a JOY to me even when I had pets of my own! I have found myself offering to walk friends’ dogs because I miss my own. It suddenly hit me I should sign up with Rover, so I can spend some time with pets looking for attention while their people are out. I have always had four-legged fur pets, but also fish, frogs and lizards and more. I have saved baby birds, random stray, sick and/or injured animals and have domesticated several feral cats. My interest in and care for all animals is constant. I am a Registered Nurse for humans, so I have extra knowledge, comfort and comprehension regarding medications. Between being an RN and a MOM, I’ve got the bases covered on attention to details, noticing subtle changes in pet’s behaviors and the art of double/triple checking things. While my motivation to sign up with Rover was my love for animals and a sincere selfish need to love some dogs and cats, my resume has me very prepared to manage my business and communications professionally. I have also hired sitters for my own pets during travel or long work days and know the awkward discomfort about having someone in my home and/or taking my pet somewhere. “Will they be as careful as I am so my cat doesn’t escape when they open the door?” Or “will they pay attention on the walk with other pets or kids are around? What if my dog gets away because they’re not being careful?” Or, as a former owner of a dog with a sensitive tummy, “do they get it that she CAN’T EAT ANYTHING on their walk - will they pay close enough attention?” Pet care can be a worry to distraction, when you could feel so at ease you actually forget someone else is coming in! When time allows, please tell me your typical routine and commands used, if your dog has allergies, takes medications, an injury, personality triggers. We will talk about whatever is specific to your fur family member, so I can provide the very best experience possible for both of you. In the case of an emergency or special circumstance when the luxury of time is not there to discuss details, you need a sitter who feels comfortable stepping in with your pet and caring for them with love, respect and confidence in your absence. I am your person! Whether your fur family members are dogs or cats, I will love them as my own. I look forward to meeting you and taking care of your pets! *Please Note* my children are 7 and 9 years old. They LOVE animals. Your pets will be loved and very well socialized by them, which is a bonus for most. That said, many pups are not at all interested in kids or the noise that they bring. If your pup just does not enjoy kids, this Doggy Day Care location would not be a comfortable fit for them. If your young puppy needs the socialization, we’ve got you covered! Due to my husband’s allergies, we cannot book overnights.

“Brian took such good care of Simon, it’s abundantly clear that he’s passionate about animals and providing them the best care. He was so communicative and it was one of the very few times where I’ve felt such peace of mind that Simon was in good hands. :) will definitely rebook in the future!”

About: I've had dogs most of my adult life. My first dog was a neighbors dog, she couldn't care for the dog any longer and I agreed to take the dog in my home. I have fed and cared for bird, cats and dogs when family and friend were on vacation. I work two days out of the month, therefore, I have more than enough time to play, walk and cuddle with pets in my care. I have a fenced in yard where dogs can go out and play. I am not strict with pets unless there is a certain rule the owner wants me to apply to there pet.
