About: I’m a retired professional with a calm, patient nature and a genuine love for animals. My sister has two dogs, one of whom is a super senior with special needs, so I’m very comfortable providing extra attention, patience, and thoughtful care. With a flexible schedule and plenty of time to devote to one-on-one care, I enjoy creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for dogs and cats. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, medication routines, or quiet companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own—offering reliable care and true peace of mind to pet parents. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. As a retired professional, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around a pet’s needs rather than the other way around. I’m home for most of the day, which means plenty of time for walks, play, feeding, medication schedules, and quiet companionship. I enjoy building consistent routines that help pets feel secure and comfortable, and I’m able to give them my full attention without feeling rushed. This flexibility also allows me to adapt easily to senior pets or those with special needs who may require extra time, patience, or monitoring. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual routine, personality, and needs—whether in my home or in a client’s home. I follow all feeding schedules carefully, provide fresh water, regular walks or playtime, and plenty of attention and companionship. I’m especially attentive to senior and special-needs pets, including administering medications as directed and keeping a calm, consistent environment. In a client’s home, I respect their routines and space, making sure pets feel secure and comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I also keep pet parents updated with check-ins and notes so they can feel confident their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while they’re away.

About: Being around animals brings me joy and I want them to feel at ease because I know they are missing their pet parents. My calm, patient and kind personality will be comforting to your pet. I’ve given medications and have cared for many types of dogs and cats as well as chickens, birds and a duck! I am also very conscientious about safety, being on time and keeping your home tidy. When you return home it will be as you left it and to happy pets! I am recently retired, therefore my schedule is flexible daily, including weekends and overnights. Let me know what your needs are and I will do my best to accommodate. I can pet sit in your home. I do not have my own pets but family members I live with have 2 cats that I often help care for. Safety and caring for your home and pets are important to me. You will return to a tidy home. I am happy to discuss how to accommodate your needs.

“Tiffany went above and beyond to take care of my baby. She was responsive and did a great job.”

About: I have taken care of pets since I was 5 years old. That includes dogs, cats, lizards, snakes. I love them all. They love me. unfortunately, my apartment complex does not allow Pitbulls sorry I can cover most days and evening needs. I have the needed transportation to meet your needs. I am ready to help you any way I can. I can care for your pets needs in your home or my apartment. I am flexible in doing whatever is required to meet your needs

“Jennifer did a great job caring for my cat Loni and I would not hesitate to engage her again. She was very understanding of my cat’s temperament and treated her with care and consideration. She even visited during a horrible snowstorm to make sure Loni was taken care of!”

About: I bring a calm, reliable presence and genuine love for animals. I’m experienced with both puppies and senior pets, including reinforcing training, maintaining routines, and providing gentle support for older pets who need extra care. I’m detail‑oriented, safety‑focused, and communicate clearly so owners always feel informed and confident. Every pet is treated with patience, respect, and the same care I’d want for my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I plan my days around consistency. I’m comfortable with early mornings, scheduled walks, feeding times, and regular check‑ins. I treat each visit as a priority, making sure every pet gets dependable care and attention throughout the week. When I care for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and predictable environment. I follow each pet’s routine exactly as outlined — feeding times, walks, play, training reinforcement, and any medication needs. I take time to understand their personality, comfort level, and energy so I can adapt my approach and help them feel secure. For puppies, I reinforce the basics: crate routines, potty breaks, consistent schedules, and positive training habits. For senior pets, I’m patient and gentle, offering slow walks, mobility support, and medication reminders. No matter the age, I keep communication open with owners through updates, photos, and honest check‑ins so they always feel confident and informed.

About: I’ve been around animals since I was a child, whether they were family or friends or my own pets, I made sure to make myself available when they needed me. My experience includes dog sitting, dog walking and even taking care of medication. I’m currently finishing up college so I am available before and after my classes with any availability on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. When summer starts I will be working part-time at an internship so I will have continued availability that I will update as soon as I can. I have one dog and one cat living at home with me. They are both older now but I’ve had them since they were babies. I am responsible for both animals, for example cleaning up after both of them, feeding them, taking my dog out 3x a day.

About: My friend and I raised our pup from when she was only 8 weeks old, so I have experience with all of the puppy to dog related things :) I'm a teacher and a volleyball coach during the school year, so I have plenty of free time in the summer to help out with your fur babies! Being a dog mom myself, I am super cautious when it comes to taking care of any animal. I make sure we are in a safe environment, harness / collar / leash is connected properly, and I stay alert to make sure your dog can have a fun and calming walk! For at home care, I am timely for potty breaks, making sure your pup gets some love and anything you ask for while I am there!

“Joanne was such a wonderful person and very professional and Akai loved her!! She was super helpful with his daily shots of insulin and his eye drops. I will always use her in the future for sure and my pup misses her already! Thank you so much for everything!!”

“Staff was a fantastic sitter and took great care of our two sphinx cats while we were on vacation. She kept in continual contact, administered medications when they were required, and spent extra time with our cats. It is clear that Steff enjoys the company of pets. She was punctual and went the extra mile when our plans were changed at short notice and beyond our control. We cannot recommend Steff highly enough.”

About: I've taken care of dogs since i was 6. 2 Family dogs till they passed along with our first cat. We now have 2 more and another cat. Everyone always asks me when they go away if i could watch their pets because I just love animals. I'm currently working but done by 4-5 so my nights and weekends are free for walks or just some fun. weekends im free all day I would make sure the pet is comfortable in their home and give them all the attention they need and of course if theres any notes go over all notes

“Erin did fantastic with my dog Koda. Koda was a little nervous at first, but Erin took her time and made Koda feel comfortable before taking her on a walk. Will definitely be using her again!”

“Nadine was so wonderful with our senior pups. She completely respected our “slow to warm up” furbaby. He was relaxed & unfazed by her presence. We are thrilled and can’t wait to work with Nadine again soon! Highly recommend Nadine!”

About: Ive always been around animals, both wild and domestic. I feel very fulfilled and passionate about working with animals, and understand their language quite well. Im happy to give exercise or comfort, whatever is needed. I can do some behavioral training as well. Im happy to adapt to whatever needs present themselves! I'm currently staying at my parents' house on Long Island while I wait for a job opportunity. I have a flexible schedule and love to travel and experience different environments. I have been traveling all over the country the past ten years, taking care of others pets and houses. This includes large lands, with chicken, goats, compost...the whole thing! I also have my own husky mix, and have kept her super happy and healthy. Ive also worked in behavioral health for years, and understand the approach that needs to be taken for both people and animals who have suffered from abuse.

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs since I was a child - from puppies and kittens to senior furry friends who need a little extra care. I'm happy to make your time away from home worry-free, with walks, feeding, play time and lots of cuddles. I'll take care of your plants and bring in the mail too, making things easy for you to step away. Now that I am retired, I love taking care of cats and dogs! I have the time to offer extra attention, and love it when tails start wagging when I arrive. Let me help you take the worry out of being away! As an active retiree, I am available when you need me. Three visits a day? I'm there. Does your dog relish its long afternoon walk? Me too! Fussy eater needs attention from first bite to clean plate? Maybe a little cuddle time after? The schedule we set up is the schedule I keep! Safety and security is one of the most important parts of pet care. I check for locked doors at every visit. The leash is on before we step outside. I don't engage with neighborhood pets to ensure that your your pup feels safe with me. And while I know that kitties have their own personalities, I am always patient and thoughtful toward their unique needs.

About: Caring for and loving animals is simply part of me. I have pets of my own who I consider part of my family. I have experience fostering dogs and cats. I’ve worked at an animal shelter and veterinary clinic in the past, so I completely understand each and every animal is unique in personality and needs. I will be happy to learn about your pet so I can give them the best care possible. My promise to you is to provide exclusive and personalized care to your pet, which is why I only accept boarding of 1 (one) pet client at a time (unless bonded pair). I am always excited to meet new clients! Both animals and humans! I hope to hear from you soon! I work remotely so my time is flexible and I am home 90% of the entire day most days. Plenty of time to care for your pet on our agreed days and times. I walk dogs on a leash out and about around the neighborhood and I have the space indoors to play with them. Out of safety, No dogs are allowed on my furniture as this causes leadership issues but they are VERY welcome to sleep on their beds in my room, or anywhere in the house (or crate if you prefer) where I can keep them supervised and have them fwel safe and happy. They will always hang out with myself and family to keep each other company 💖

About: Hi, I’m Jenn! I have been a dog walker and pet sitter since 2017 and have over 750 5 star reviews on Wag! I am excited to expand my services to Rover! I have experience with puppies through 16 year old pups. I also have experience caring for cats. I am trained in Pet CPR and First Aid. I am comfortable giving oral medications. I love making sure your furry friends have the most fun and stay safe. I can’t wait to meet your pets! I am a teacher and work on a teacher’s schedule. Therefore, I am available for services in the evenings, on weekends, and school vacations. Feel free to reach out if you have a question about a particular date. I always make sure to follow client’s instructions for walking, feeding, and medications. Safety is always my number one priority. I am only able to care for pets in your home because I cannot have animals in my apartment.

About: I volunteer with the organization that I adopted my pup from! I not only process applications for the organization, but I actively “babysit” pups overnight (sometimes 3 days at a time) for their fosters who occasionally are away on the weekends. I have the most experience with puppies and young adults, but also have watched older pups of my family members. I hope to give your pup a nice boop on the nose :) I am a full-time teacher on summer break! With my current schedule, I am available Sat, Sun, Tues, Thursday & Fridays! I look forward to discussing your needs for your pet! I have a 1y/o pup who is crate trained, friendly and loves to play with other dogs. She is my best friend! I’ve taken care of my boyfriend’s dog as she’s recovered from two separate TPLO surgeries. I’ve potty-trained and crate trained other pups from the rescue I volunteer with as I personally feel that’s the best way to make myself and you assured of your pets safety. My pup and I frequent the complex park multiple times daily and love a good car ride. A brief note of needs for your pet will ensure I care for them exactly how you do!
