About: For as long as I can remember, there has always been a pet in close proximity to me, and now I like to joke that I prefer their company over that of other people! As I've grown up, I've learned the true value of our furry friends, especially the care required to foster our relationship with them. I have owned and taken care of dogs for many years, my longest being 15 years. Through him, we started a family; nursing a total of eight puppies and raising one throughout her entire lifetime. I have learned much about patience through my experience with dogs, whether it be getting puppies to sleep, or accommodating the needs of a senior dog. I get excited when given the possibility to teach a dog new skills, as I always form a stronger connection with it. For the first time, I have no pets of my own, and I'm excited for the opportunity to continue forming relationships with animals and observing the dynamic they have with their owners. As I said, most of my memories consist of some form of animal care, so I'm sure I can form new ones with your pet! I am currently an undergraduate student looking to graduate next year. As such, I'd like to offer my services mostly for for the weekends only, as I do not have class or work then. I exercise 5 days a week, so I'm sure I have the strength and discipline to handle any animal. As such, caring for your pet is also beneficial to my health and wellbeing. As soon as possible, I'd like to learn what habits a pet has, whether it be trained or spontaneous. This would either be in the form of special items, specific words, favorite locations, daily routines, and notable stimuli. With that knowledge in mind, I like to form a balance between accommodating a pet's special needs and the owner's requests and preferences, all to create a comfortable and safe environment for both.
“Stefanie did a terrific job for us, all round. Friendly, professional, communicative, great with the cats - we'll always try to book her first in future.”
About: Since I was little I always loved all kinds of animals especially dogs being my favorite. They are truly a wonderful creation on earth. I been having a pet basically my whole life and once I moved out I had to get a me a little companion or two. When I was searching for houses to buy, one of my main requirements was a house with a big back yard for my dogs to play in. I have two dogs Dakota who's 3 husky mixed with pitbull and a 8 month german shepherd who loves to play and make friends. But once again I am a very huge animal person and if you choose to let your companion stay with me I will treat and love him like my own I currently do security and most of my shifts are overnight, so your pet would be taken care of greatly throughout the day and would have plenty of outside time depending on the weather I have big fenced back yard with cameras for your dog safety and to have plenty of outside time, I also have two dogs who would love to keep them company and I am currently making a room just for the dogs to relax from everyone if needed.
“She took very great care of my dogs and kept me updated the whole time!”
About: I have had and been around dogs since I was a child. Dogs seem to come to me naturally; without fear or hesitation. I honestly believe this is because I approach them with ease and am not forceful. It seemed like a natural step for me to join the Rover community. Ive also been a dog owner and currently have Jazzy who is my beloved Boston Terrier Mix with a big personality and sweet nature. Jazzy and I chose each other and its been an adventure ever since day one! she loves everyone but at times can be a little bossy. I'm well aware of who runs the household! I pride myself on ensuring that Jazzy stays healthy by giving her quality food and treats, Along with that she enjoys her fenced in yard and takes daily walks. We have lots of playtime and cuddles. I'll treat your dog as I would my own. That is my motto as I don't want you to worry or be concerned when you are away from your precious fur baby. I can't replace you, or would never try but rest assured your pet will receive all my tender loving care. I have had the opportunity to care for some dogs on Rover who have become regular clients. The owners have told me that they reach out to me first and hope that I am available. That is a huge compliment and I'm honored that I made such an impact on their four legged friend. All the pets I have met have their own unique personality and what I do as a sitter is simply take them for who they are which includes any little quirks. Canine or human, we all possess them. If you like what you see, let's schedule a meet and greet and see if I'm the right fit for your pet and their needs. Thanks for taking the time to get to know me and read my profile! I work remotely on a part time basis so can be available in the afternoon/evening and do pet sitting on the weekends away from my home. Well I make sure my dog Jazzy is loved and cared for each and every day. I give her good food and healthy treats. Daily walks and preventive meds to keep her healthy and strong.
About: I've taken care of dogs since we got our first family dogs when I was 8 years old. Justin & Feisty were my first dogs and they were truly the light of my life from such a young age. I have experience with senior dogs as well from my time dog sitting for one of my neighbors. I love puppies and make sure to take them out constantly so that they learn that potty training is a serious business. I'm fairly active and love taking long walks and getting my exercise in, it would be fun to have a furry friend join be from time to time! I'm currently working in data analytics Monday-Friday from 9-5. Outside of that, I'm pretty free. I work from home one day out of the week and I am pretty free on the weekends as well. I am open to do night walks and morning walks as well. I keep a very clean space and love cuddling with pups on my furniture. I stay in a very close knit community at a Condo! There are other dogs around and there is a dog park connected to my community as well. There are plenty of places to walk around in my neighborhood and plenty of grassland as well. Pets are open to freely walk around in my home and are free to jump on furniture if it pleases them! I like to stay active and go on walks, however, I also love to stay in relax and catch up on some shows.

10. Amanda R.
“Amanda is hands down the best pet sitter I’ve ever worked with. From the moment she met my golden retriever, Kilo, I knew she had a special connection with animals. He instantly warmed up to her, which speaks volumes about her naturally loving and approachable nature. But what truly sets Amanda apart is her patience, attentiveness, and genuine care for every dog she interacts with, regardless of breed or size. I've seen her handle shy, energetic, and even stubborn dogs with ease, always making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. One of the things I admire most about Amanda is her attention to detail and commitment to each pet’s routine. She follows every instruction I give her, ensuring Kilo eats and potties at the right times, and even goes the extra mile by taking him to the nearby dog park so he can socialize with other pups. At one point, she even managed to give Kilo a bath way easier than I ever could—a true testament to her patience and ability to handle dogs with care. She treats every pet as if they were her own, creating a safe and loving environment that puts both pets and their owners at ease. If you’re looking for a responsible, compassionate, and reliable pet sitter, Amanda is the one to call. Her love for animals shines through in everything she does, and I can’t recommend her highly enough to anyone seeking someone who will treat their dog like family!”
