About: I am a current fourth year veterinary student, and I have several years of experience in clinics and boarding facilities working with dogs and cats. Caring for pets isn’t just a job for me, it’s what I’ve dedicated my life and education to. Because of my clinical training and professional experience, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I have experience administering medications, monitoring for changes in behavior, and providing attentive care to pets who may be anxious or require special handling. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, or your cat needs a reliable sitter while you’re away, you can feel confident knowing they are in capable hands. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize safety, comfort, and enrichment at every visit. I’m currently working at a local veterinary clinic part-time, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets. I am free every day of the week for walks and drop-by sitting, and my timing is flexible each day depending on what your needs are! I will monitor your pets in your home and ensure that they stay within my sight and are not getting into anything they shouldn't be. When they are outside, I will either take them out on a leash if your yard is not fenced, or keep watch on them while they are in a fenced-in yard. On walks, I will use whatever accessories you suggest for your dog, whether that be a harness, collar, etc. I will bring water with me for any extended walks, and be sure to monitor them for any signs of fatigue especially in our hot weather. I am very flexible and can provide many different kinds of care tailored to your pet!

“Jessica did amazing with our dog Molly! She left extensive and detailed notes each day about the walk. I loved receiving multiple photos each day. It gave us good peace of mind knowing Molly was being taken care of someone we could trust. We will definitely use her again in the future!”

About: My wife Sherry and I have had pets for the last 31 years of marriage. We know how important it is to find a responsible and trusting person to take care of your pets while you're away. Let us take care of your precious pets and we will treat them like our own. You can have them hosted in our house or we can make drop in visits at yours. We live in a secluded area with a large yard which your pets will enjoy. I'm an IT professional and my wife stays home so there is always someone looking after your pets. We'll take the stress away from you while you are away from your pets by treating them like our own. I work full time but my wife Sherry is home all day. We are a team a she will look after the pets during the day and we both will take care of them at night. We currently don't have any dogs since we recently lost our little old man Monty. We have one indoor/outdoor cat named Creature which is very friendly. We have a large back yard which is not fenced but we can take them out on a leash or tie them up on a lead an supervise them. Our property is secluded and is not close to a road so, there is no danger from traffic.

“Michelle is great with dog. Coco has already warmed up to her.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for 10 years, whether mine or those belonging to family. I have trained puppies as well as taken care of my dogs that have reached their golden years, and helped them over the rainbow bridge. My top two priorities are communication and safety. Any need you have regarding your pet is of utmost importance because pets aren’t just animals - they’re family! I have two dogs at home, one is 1 1/2 years old and the other is nearly 4. We walk 3 times daily, as well as plenty of enrichment time inside. Enrichment depends on the day, it can be playing with toys, eating treats from snuffle mats, lick mats, or just running around with them until they’re as tired as I am! Safety is my biggest priority. I follow instructions very carefully, I keep a close eye on your fur babies both in the house and outside. I can send real time updates that way you know exactly what is going on at all times, and I will always make sure to ask questions when needed. I can recreate your pets routine as closely as possible, and I will always bring positive energy!

About: I bring not only years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, but also a genuine passion for making each pet feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care is a natural part of my daily schedule. I plan my days around walks, playtime, and check-ins, making sure each pet gets the attention and consistency they need. I’m flexible with mornings and afternoons, so I can easily adjust to your pet’s routine. Whether it’s daily walks or just drop-ins, I make sure every pet feels loved and cared for as if they were my own. I respect your home and your pet’s routine. I keep everything consistent—meals, walks, playtime, and bedtime—so your pet feels secure while you’re away. I also provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your furry friend is doing. No matter the service, I treat every pet like my own—with patience, love, and care. 🐶🐱💛

About: Hey! I’m Kaitlynn, I have 7 years of experience with animals. I was on rover a few years ago for 5-6 years and took a break after I had kids. I have worked with a travel vet for 2 years (before kids) and dog grooming! My love for animals hasn’t changed, I’m recently new to Rover again because I love working with animals and would love to start to get out there again. I give updates often and will have plenty of photos to share with you! My dogs are super friendly to all animals as they lived on a farm before. I’m hoping to help families while providing for mine:) Pet care fits naturally into my daily life because I own my own business and work for myself, which gives me the flexibility to prioritize animals throughout the day. I can easily build my schedule around feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins without rushing or being tied to a strict 9–5 job. Caring for pets blends perfectly with my active, hands-on lifestyle, and I genuinely enjoy having animals as part of my routine while I manage my business responsibilities. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment where they can relax and feel comfortable. I make sure they get plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and any feeding or medication schedules are followed closely. I also have two friendly dogs of my own who are very social and do well with other animals, which can be great for pets that enjoy companionship. In a client’s home, I follow their routine exactly to help pets feel secure in their familiar environment. I respect their space, keep everything clean and consistent, and make sure pets receive the same level of care, love, and attention they would get from their owner.

“Lucas has been great with our pup. He’s very attentive and has great communication. He checks in when he arrives and when he leaves, including lots of photos during his walk. Our dog, Oscar, is always worn out when we get home and you can tell he thoroughly enjoys his walks with Lucas!”

About: I love taking care of all seniors, puppies, and all others. I have many years of loyal pet experience with many different types of breeds. I work from home and have plenty of time to care for the pups. I keep my own dog out as much as possible and keep her very loved on and active. I have a very spacious backyard for dogs to play in and live on a very quiet street. I have a sweet, loyal senior pup who has a very calm demeanor and is extremely friendly who can keep your dog company as well!

“Leah is the best!! We have only had her walking for us for a very short time but she is without a doubt one of the best walkers we have ever had.”

About: I’ve taken care of dog for the last three years. I’m very trust worthy and compassionate when it comes to dogs, friends and family trust me with there pets I’m currently working during the week, but I’m available every weekend and also every Friday after 4:00 pm so I’ll have plenty of time to play with animals on weekends. I have a wide opened smoke free apartment so the pets could run freely and be comfortable. There is plenty of out door space also with a nature trail to walk.

About: I think animals deserve more than we can offer them. With life being so busy sometimes, it is hard to give our best friends the love and attention they deserve. I would love the opportunity to help you know that your best friend is always living their best life! I am currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to make your furry friend feel loved! I attend school online so scheduling issues are no problem. When caring for pets in a clients home, I go above and beyond to make sure that their furry loved one sticks to the schedule their human desires.

About: My home offers a private, low-volume stay designed for dogs who thrive with calm energy, consistency, and one-on-one attention. I intentionally keep my bookings extremely limited, typically no more than 2 to 3 dogs at a time, so each dog receives focused care, supervision, and a truly personalized experience. This is a quiet, structured environment where dogs are part of my daily routine, not rotated through large group play or overstimulating settings. Every stay is designed to feel stable, safe, and relaxed. For dogs who enjoy social interaction, I carefully incorporate supervised play and enrichment opportunities when appropriate and with owner approval. Social time is always based on each dog’s temperament, energy level, comfort, and overall fit. I intentionally keep my care balanced and structured, ensuring dogs who benefit from interaction have positive experiences while maintaining the peaceful environment I’m known for. Dogs here benefit from: • Consistent supervision and presence • Calm, structured daily routines • One-on-one attention and interaction • Low-stress, balanced social dynamics • A peaceful environment without overstimulation Your dog is never left unattended for long periods and is never placed in chaotic or crowded situations. This is a more intentional, hands-on level of care for owners who want peace of mind knowing their dog is truly being looked after. The property includes open space, shaded areas, and quiet walking paths. Outdoor time is always supervised and tailored to each dog’s comfort level, energy level, and recall reliability. This setting is an excellent fit for: • Dogs who prefer a calm environment • Senior dogs or lower-energy breeds • Dogs who benefit from structure and routine • Anxious or sensitive dogs • Owners looking for a more private, personalized stay I do accept well-mannered and social dogs, as long as they align with the calm, balanced environment here. Each stay is thoughtfully matched to maintain a safe and positive experience for everyone. If your dog would benefit from a more active, high-energy environment, I can also help guide you toward the best fit to ensure they have the experience they need. Caring for animals is already the rhythm of my day. I’m home full time, so everything I do revolves around feeding schedules, outdoor playtime, training, cleaning, and making sure everyone’s comfortable. My mornings start with letting the dogs out to stretch and play while I prep meals and check water buckets. Throughout the day, I rotate them between play areas, nap spots, and one-on-one time inside. there’s room for everyone to get fresh air, sunshine, and plenty of space to explore safely. I treat visiting dogs exactly like my own with the same attention, structure, and love. Nights are calm with everyone settled in for dinner, cuddles, and quiet time before bed. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze in; it is my lifestyle. When pets stay with me, they get the best of both worlds! I have a safe indoor area where they can relax, play, and feel comfortable, plus a secure outdoor space where they can get fresh air, stretch their legs, and enjoy supervised playtime. I keep both areas clean and cozy, and I always make sure pets are monitored while outside. Whether it’s sunshine and fetch or chill time indoors, I tailor their routine to what makes them happiest and most comfortable.

“Very good communication. Will be using again.”

About: I love all animals, but have a special place in my heart for dogs. There's never been a time in my life when I didn't have a dog or two. I have been walking dogs for over 8 years. I enjoy all walks, from walks around the block to long hikes. Currently have one senior dogs - Ringo is blind and diabetic. I am also able to administer insulin injections. I'm currently a part-time student and worker. I have a flexible schedule. I'm available weekends and some weekdays after 4pm. Unavailable to do morning calls. I have one friendly dog that would keep your fur baby comfortable. We have a big yard where all the zoomies can be let out. We have a quiet neighborhood where walks and hike trails are near and available.

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, often referred to as the “pet whisperer” by family and friends! At any occasion you’ll find me on the floor giving the animals all the “Brittany love”, as my parents would describe my adoration for animals ever since I was a little girl. I grew up on a farm and have had all sorts of animals from chickens to horses, dogs/cats, bunnies, & even a hedgehog! It would be my honor (& my pleasure) to care for your sweet furry babies! 🩷 I just had my first (human) baby in March ‘23 and have decided to become a full-time stay-at-home mom! I’m looking to make a little extra cash to help support my family since we’re now only on my husband’s income as a firefighter, who is incredibly underpaid for such an important job… I have plenty of free time that I would love to devote to enhancing your furry babies’ quality of life all while enhancing my family’s as well! 🩵 I treat animals with just as much tender love & care as I do my own human baby and as I’ve treated others’ human babies during my time working as an elementary school counselor. If you’re looking for someone to provide more than just a service, I’m your girl. Know that my time with your pet will be filled with so much love, ON TOP of whatever service you may need! 💜
