“Ken has walked our dog Nova since she was a puppy and does an excellent job! He communicates with me very well and I would recommend his services to anyone looking for a sitter or dog walker!”


“Tara is amazing!!! Took excellent care of our big dog while we were on a week long trip with multiple walks throughout the day. She is great with animals and really cares! So glad we found her.”


“So Happy to have found Stephanie on Rover for Sailor Girl's walks! Stephanie is dependable, trustworthy, very knowledgeable in caring for dogs. She and Sailor hit it off from the first moment they met. Takes away my worries about Sailor when I am away at work, knowing Sailor is being cared for by Stephanie.”


About: Hi y’all! I took a short break from accepting new clients to save room for my wonderful clientele base that Rover has allowed me to build but I am reopening my books! I have taken care of every kind of pet from puppies, cats, lizards, birds, horses, even raccoons. There’s no job too unique! I live minutes from a park and walking distance to a walking trail. I do have my own dog that is my whole world so I no longer do overnight stays. Take a peak at my reviews as I know finding a sitter can be stressful! Message me with any questions and hope to meet you and your furry (or feathery, or scaly, etc) loved one soon! I absolutely love going on walks at Willow Springs or on the Tweetsie Trail! I enjoy hiking, running, and playing fetch as well. I have a part time job but the shifts are fairly short so I can work with almost any schedule. I currently don’t offer overnight stays unless noted otherwise. I’m very fortunate to have my own dog who is my very best friend and I hate to leave her! I try my best to maintain good communication especially if there’s anything of concern-I try to limit my messages so clients can enjoy their trips but am happy to provide pictures and updates if requested!

About: I have never been without a pet or multiple pets, mostly cats and dogs. I believe Pets are family members. I have cared for pets ages birth to 17 years old since childhood. I have two dogs of my own and one granddog I work from my phone/computer full-time scheduling clients. I am able to care for Pets in my home or yours around the clock. I also have the freedom to come and go as needed for pet walking and/or potty breaks. I live in a safe neighborhood with a decent sized yard. I never let Pets go out without being on a leash or tie out. I have a small, older Westie and a 2 year old mini golden doodle that love other animals.

About: I am currently a part time Massage Therapist, but during school, my full time job was at a dog daycare in Scottsdale, so I got to work with dogs on a regular basis! Nowadays, I take my little sidekick Beetlejuice with me almost everywhere. I firmly believe that our pets always improve our quality of life. They've most definitely always improved mine. After growing up on a farm full of animals, homes without furry companions seem to be lacking something to me. I think everyone should be able to have pet-friend, (or a few of them!) and shouldn't need to worry about needing a little extra help with giving them the best care possible. I have lots of availability to help out with walks, feeding, or just a hearty belly rub, if that's what you need! I am also comfortable with medically fragile pets, as I have personal experience with them. My sweet dog Majik, who I sadly a couple years ago, had Addison's disease. So, I have no problem giving any medications, if need be. I have quite the soft spot for the older pooches, also! I'm currently in an online class and only work occasionally, so I have a lot of free time to devote to your pets. I love to go on drives and hikes around the area, and I'm always happy to have another sidekick! I have a fenced yard and a big comfy couch. Beetlejuice, my dog, is obsessed with toys, so we have a ton of those as well. Bernie isn't much of a player, but he is a masterful napper.

About: Hello and thank you for showing interest in my Rover profile! I am Shannon and I have decided to settle down in Bristol after spending a few years pursuing my passion of travel. I traveled full time in my RV and had some wonderful experiences caring for animals while on the road! After the loss of my beloved German Shepherd a few years ago, I had an abundance of time and love to give to other furry friends. I decided to join Rover and it has been wonderful. I work from home, so your animal/s will have access to me throughout the day! I am very experienced with taking care of all different types, sizes, and ages of animals. I provide plenty of playtime and walks as needed for your pet! I also have experience providing medications and assisting animals with mobility difficulties. I am happy to help your pet up and down stairs, or in and out of vehicles. I have done everything from helping 4-week old puppies nurse with their mother to giving a 16-year old cat IV fluids to keep him hydrated. I work online so my schedule is very flexible. I also specialize in drop-ins and walks during the day! I love to be outside hiking and walking so your fur baby(ies) will always have plenty of exercise and one-on-one time (something you rarely get from a doggy boarding place). I am excited to meet both you and the furry members of your family and hope we can connect soon! -Shannon I am self-employed so I am able to adjust and adapt my schedule according to the needs of you and your fur babies. I am happy to work with you to ensure the needs of your pet/s are met and their normal schedules are maintained. I take great pride in creating and maintaining a safe environment for your furry friends. I treat them as I would my own. I also ensure your home is well cared for!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was 10! Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and love on their pets. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to care for your furry friends. I’d love to care for your fur-babies anytime you’d like! I have a huge yard and a super friendly dog to keep your animal company. My apartments are a very safe and secure area for all pets.

About: If you allow me to be apart of your animals life, I promise you will not regret it. I know how these fur babies can worry us when we are not with them. My goal is to ensure my clients parents that they are in the best hands possible. I will do whatever is necessary for you and your fur babies to be safe and comfortable. I hope to hear from you soon and be your favorite reliable sitter from now on! I work from home, so will be around 24/7. We have a fenced in yard! And your pet will never be lonely, we are always around for some cuddles and play time! I work from home so have ample time for an extra fur baby! I am here to give you peace of mind while you are away! I have a fenced in yard, and dogs of my own to keep yours company. I will send you many updates and pictures throughout their stay!

About: Ive had animals since I was a little girl (around 7/8) and I’m now in my late twenties! I’ve taken care of cats, dogs: old and puppies, those on medications and those that are not. I work with my own dogs and friends dogs to teach them new tricks and I take them for walks when the weather permits. I do overnight watches for a friend when they’re out of town for long periods of time. I’ve also worked at a vets office for 1-2yrs as the receptionist and occasional 2nd hand in the back to help the techs/assistants/doctors if necessary. I do work full time but no worries! Your pet will still get their proper care before I head in for the day/night and as well as after work! They’ll still get their loves, breakfast/dinner, playtime and walk time. Majority of the time I do have two set days off in a row during the weekdays but I work a job where that can change based on the demand. When I’m at my clients home, I will respect their home like it was my own. I will respect their animals like they were my own as well. If there are set rules in place how the owner wishes for their animal to be cared for, you have no worries there, I will follow them to a T. I want your pets to feel loved and at ease, like I am their friend they’ve known for years, and to do that I will do my best in providing them all the attention and care they need. :)

“Kristy was fantastic with my two mutts when I had to leave for a three-day work trip. They had a lot of separation anxiety but she managed them perfectly and sent lots of wonderful pictures of both the dogs as well as my cats that came and went while she was here. I am so happy to have her now established as a resource for future pet sitting!”


About: I use my experience as an RN to better care for dogs and cats. I have great assessment skills that help me understand your pets better. I have years of experience caring for geriatric people and animals. I have developed an empathy for pets and pet parents that only comes from years of working to provide the best possible care I can. Whatever your pet needs, from feeding to end of life care, I would be honored to have that responsibility. I am available any day of the week. I do have other obligations occasionally. The sooner you call, the better I will be able to accomodate you and your pet. When we decide that I will care for your pet, I prefer to meet both (or all) of you in your home so that we can discuss your pets needs. I like to spend some time getting to know all involved better, At that time you can show me whatever I might need to know. I look forward to meeting you!

About: With the proper instructions, I can and will do anything to give your pet the care he/she needs. I have no problem administering medications of any kind. My wife and I have a yard with sections fenced and not fenced, so I can take dogs out on a leash to relieve themselves, or let them out to run and play. There is also a picnic area near my house with a paved walking trail for walks. I have had and cared for dogs my entire life. Growing up we mainly had large dogs, but I have also cared for small and medium dogs through family. I am comfortable caring for any size dog with any set of needs! I am currently a stay-at-home husband, so I am home all day, every day. My wife works during the day and is home in the evenings and on weekends. Whatever I do during the day will revolve around the care i am currently giving. My wife and I have a home with a fenced backyard. We also have parts of the yard that aren't fenced. We have about 1.5 acres, so I can walk your pet around the yard on a leash or let him/her roam around the fenced in area. I can play with your pet however he/she likes. We can also go to the paved walking path about 5 minutes away. We have 2 medium sized herding dogs that love to play with other dogs. If your dog isn't able or doesnt want to play, no problem! They have experience with small, large, young, and elderly dogs and know how to interact with any needs and temperament. We also have 2 cats that may sniff your dog, but will otherwise do their own things. They have also interacted with different types of dogs and know what to do. Both of our families also love animals so if anyone comes by, it'll just be more love for the fur babies! There is also a veterinarian about 15 minutes away just in case. We are super flexible. I am a stay at home dad and my wife will be working from home in October. We can be accommodating to your needs! We have a fenced in yard which includes a deck and quite a bit of running space. Our dogs love to run up and down the hill, but also like to sun bathe on the porch.

About: Hi There! My name is Bethany. I love all animals and have one beautiful dog, Mr. Bojangles and four cats that think they are dogs! I have a fenced in yard and work remotely. I work remotely and my work schedule is very flexible. My office looks out into the fenced back yard so I can easily keep an eye on any visiting furry friends all day long. We go on daily walks and let the dogs roam around the fenced in yard. They can come inside through a dog door and are allowed on the couch and beds for snuggles.

“Sam went out of her way to care for my babies while I was in town working!! It was cold. It rained. It did not deter her from being a great caregiver for my dogs! She is reliable and follows instructions with perfection. My doggies loved her! I look forward to booking Samantha again on my next work trip to town!! Thanks Sam!!”


About: I’ve taken care of/had animals since I was a kid which includes dogs, cats, goats and chickens. I have my own energetic, sweet 2 year old Aussiedoodle who I treat just like a family member! I am currently a medical student so most of my availability is after 5pm and weekends. I do have some weeks off, of which, I’m available all day! Having my own dog who loves tons of walks a day, I know how important it is to make your dog feel comfortable and confident in their walker. This is also the best way to keep your pet safe. I genuinely care for every animal as I would my own because I know our animals are our babies.

“All I can say is excellent. At a time when I desperately needed help she went above and beyond what was required, making my life and the dogs life so much easier! She walked the puppies for a long time and I could tell they absolutely adored every second.”


About: I grew up in a house full of animals my entire life. I have helped watch my families pets for as long as I can remember. I have watched Dogs from all ages puppies to seniors. I work as a server Wednesday-Sunday nights. I would be able to do Check ins any morning I was needed to because I don't usually work until 4 or 5. I have a spare bedroom in my house that could be used for boarding purposes if needed but would also be open to letting them sleep on the couch or bed. I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have a decent sized back yard and I live across the street from a walking trail. I do have one pet cat, she is almost a year old and has been around multiple cats and dogs with no problem and would be excited to have a play mate.

Nicole K.
“Nicole watched my Cat Toesy and my German shepherd Tyson for a few days while I was out of town. She was at my house to feed them breakfast at 10:00 am on the dot and at 7:00 pm to feed them dinner. She took Tyson outside both these times as well and even came by at 2:00 pm to take Tyson on a walk. She changed toesys litter box and gave both animals love and attention while I was away. I 100% recommend her because she is an animal lover herself and is a very responsible young lady. I will be asking her to watch my Toesy and Tyson the next time I go out of town.”
