“Emily was quick to respond when I was needing someone to take care of my dogs with very short notice. Throughout the process she has been very communicative, reliable, and my dogs were well taken care of.”


“Vilma was a lifesaver for our often distrustful goldendoodle! She was understanding, caring and eventually won over Libby’s trust so much that she actually looked forward to her visits (I can see in the photos that she was her laying on her back asking for belly rubs which is the best sign)! Thanks so much, we will absolutely use Vilma again and recommend her to anyone!”


“Berenice has been great stopping in and taking my dog on walks a few times a week. He still pulls on walks and is just overly excited to meet anyone but Berenice has handled it in stride!”


“Lisa is wonderful with our 2 pups. She is great with her communication and has taken exceptional care of them; they look forward to their weekly walk with her!”


About: I’ve had at least 1 pet my entire life, so I’m no stranger to caring for pets in my home. Beginning in middle school and until now, I’ve been entrusted by family, friends, and coworkers to take care of their pets while they’re away. I have experience with house visits, walking or dog park trips, and overnight care. While I don’t have direct experience with pets who require medical attention, I’d be happy to learn with you. I do have experience with senior pet care. Overall, I guarantee I’ll take care of your pet like my own! I recently graduated from PA school and am job searching currently, so I have plenty of time to play with your pets! I’m available for daytime care or overnight care daily. When looking after your pet, I will always take care of them like my own. I’m happy to play with them in the yard, take them on walks or to the park, lounge with them on the couch on a rainy day, or crate them if needed. I can stick to strict meal or medication times and will ensure they have potty breaks with appropriate clean up.

About: Spending time outdoors and staying active is a huge part of my life — I'm a fitness trainer by profession, so daily walks, runs, and playtime are second nature to me. Whether your pup loves long strolls or your cat needs a calm companion while you're away, I’m here to help. I grew up in a home where caring for animals was a part of daily life — both of my parents are veterinarians. Because of that, I’ve been comfortable around dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments from a young age. I understand how to read their body language and give them the care and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities! I am available all weekdays 10am-5pm. However, I am very flexible if needed just let me know any special requests! I will be the most to be accommodating. I have great confidence taking care of your animals since I have grown up around them! For walks, please have a collar and leash provided for use.

“Thank you for taking Cody on a much needed walk today! He has so much energy so it’s always helpful when he can get an extra walk in and it was helpful to have such a patient person like you. Thanks again!”


About: Hi! I’m a graduate student who loves to walk (I go on 4-5 mile walks frequently) and I miss my dog at home (she’s a golden retriever)! I also love to hangout if that’s what your pup needs! I’m in school four days a week but have midday breaks and am free in the evenings! I have make time on the weekends and in the evenings and would love to fill it with dog time! I will care for your pets in your home however I am instructed to! I know everyone has their different preferences and every pup has their different needs.

About: Growing up we had three dogs and they all lived very long lives and unfortunately passed within the span of a few months. We rescued two beautiful cocker spaniels Charlie and Minx to go along with our family dog Maya who was coincidentally a cocker spaniel. My job in the family was always to take care of the cats, dogs, and rabbits. I loved taking care of animals and my favorite activity was going for walks with the dogs. I currently am enrolled at MATC and am in the radiography program. I have a long break before registration for the Radiography petition window is open and would love to spend my extra free time taking care of pets. I also set my availability as available for all days of the week to accommodate last minute appointments. From our cat Moo to my leopard gecko Richard all of the animals in my house are pampered daily. I would treat each clients animal the same way that I treat mine. All animals are treasures and we as humans are honestly blessed to get to take care of them. All animals have different personalities and I believe that each one requires different kinds of care. Some animals loved to be touched and held whereas some are hesitant at first or it may make them anxious. Being able to respect and discern these traits early on will help make the animal feel more relaxed and trust you.

About: What sets me apart is the level of love, patience, and attention I give to every pet in my care. Whether it’s a bouncy puppy learning the ropes or a sweet senior needing extra support, I tailor my care to fit each pet’s unique needs. I have experience with basic puppy training, including leash manners, crate comfort, and potty routines. I’m also confident caring for senior dogs—administering medication, helping with mobility, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Your pet won’t just get a sitter—they’ll get a new friend who truly cares, communicates well, and treats them like family. As a student with a very flexible school schedule, I’m able to plan my days around pet care pretty easily—as long as I have a little notice, I can make it work! I love spending time with animals, whether it's getting outside for a good walk or just hanging out at home. On weekends, you can usually find me curled up with a furry friend or two—it’s honestly my favorite way to relax. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure pets feel secure, loved, and right at home—whether that means sticking to their usual routine, keeping their environment calm, or giving them extra one-on-one attention. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and follow all instructions carefully—from feeding schedules to walk times and any special quirks your pet may have. In my home, I keep things clean, cozy, and pet-friendly, with lots of snuggle spots and safe spaces to relax. Building trust with both pets and their people is important to me, and I always aim to communicate clearly and keep you updated so you feel at ease while you're away.

About: As a physician assistant student, I’m looking to earn some extra cash to help pay off my student loans while doing something I love❣️ I care for people every day, so let me extend that same care to your beloved pets! With over 10 years of experience, a passion for animals, and an active lifestyle, I’m the perfect match for your furry friend. Whether they love long walks, playtime, or just some extra attention, I’m here to make sure they’re happy and well cared for! I’m a full-time clinical student with a dynamic schedule that changes often. To make things easier, I’ll keep my availability updated on my profile, so you’ll always know when I’m free! I’m super flexible and happy to work during the week, weekends, and even overnight stays. Unfortunately, my apartment complex doesn’t allow overnight stays for dogs. However, I’d be more than happy to stay at your home to care for your beloved furry family member! ❤️🐶🐱

About: In 2018 all of my family moved out of the country and I began to suffer from separation anxiety and then covid happened which made it worse. My therapist suggested I become a foster parent at the humane society so I can learn to care for and let go of furry friends, and then I lost my job. Thankfully someone suggested pet sitting apps and I came across Rover. This app has helped put a little money in my pocket while doing what I love, loving and letting go. Thank you for considering my services. I work from home Monday through Friday and weekends I’m home all day. I am a big introvert so being around animals and near parks and outside by myself or with a furry pal are my favorite thing to do. I am very keen on following instructions. I don’t know if you remember or if you did this in elementary class where you wrote instructions for how to make a PB&J sandwich and some classmates even forgot to write instructions on opening the jar or grabbing a utensil to spread the jam well I was so anal that my teacher even offered me all of the sandwich she made following my instructions because I didn’t miss a beat. I have two medium and large crates handy, room dividers, leashes, food bowls, and more ready to be put to use.

About: I've been around animals my whole life and currently share my home with three cats and one dog - it's a full house! I have hands-on experience caring for senior dogs, including my own 13-year-old who needs daily medication. I also grew up with huskies, so I'm no stranger to high-energy breeds and the active care they require. On the flip side, I'm just comfortable with laid-back pus - my pug keeps things goofy and fun. Whether it's administering meds, going for long walks, or just providing companionship, I bring patience, energy, and love to every pet I care for. I work full-time remotely, which gives me the flexibility to offer morning and afternoon drop-ins and walks during the week. On weekends, I'm fully available for all listed services and can accommodate a wider range of times. My home has a partially fenced yard and system of tall gates inside to safely separate cats and dogs when needed, so every pet can feel secure and relaxed. I'm happy to kennel your pup if that's part of their routine or needed for comfort. Your pet's safety and peace of mind are always my top priority.

About: I’ve cared and loved for dogs since I was probably 8 (if not younger). If your dog needs a buddy to run around with, play, snuggle, or just needs someone around to watch them if they’re a little naughty, I got you covered. I’ve cared for puppies, elderly dogs, well behaved and not so well behaved pets. I have provided oral medication as well as maintaining hygiene with baths. I understand every dog has a different daily routine, and i’m happy to make sure your dog is as comfortable and happy as possible. I work at Target, mainly closing shifts but an occasional morning (willing to share more in depth schedule if you have questions, just ask!) I always have off on Wednesdays and usually another day of the week. If you need long term care, let me know 3+ weeks in advance and I can happily assist! I am available most mornings. However, I have a pretty much open availability for cats needing to stay at my apartment for an any period of time. Again, if you have any questions about certain days just ask! To add: I go back to college on September first. I only have classes in the morning (other than Wednesday’s). I am totally willing to work around this schedule to help you in whatever way is possible! At my home, I have 2 cats and tons of toy options to choose from. I unfortunately cannot hold dogs in my apartment, I would love to, however I live in a smaller apartment with not much yard space and that just feels unfair to the dog. At your home, I will do the best I can to follow your pets daily routine unless given other instructions.

“We have booked Kaitlyn for house sitting during an upcoming trip, and are so happy that we found her. Introducing someone to our skittish little guy can be a process, and she has been so kind and patient with him. We appreciate everything she does to make sure he is as comfortable as possible, and we know he will be very happy with her while we are away. Thank you, Kaitlyn, for putting in the extra time with our nervous pup. We know it takes him awhile to warm up, and we look forward to him having a new forever friend once he does :-)”


“Vanessa has been walking my dog regularly for several weeks now and I couldn’t be happier with her help. She’s been very patient and loving with my dog, flexible on the schedule, and provides great walk reports and pictures. Thanks, Vanessa!”


About: 15 years of experience with my friends, family and own pups.

About: ## INTRODUCTION Howdy there, thanks for choosing my Rover! I go by Billy! First things first — My highest priority is the safety and well-being of any dog in my care. Outside of that, I'm also big on making sure they have a blast, are loved, and feel secure in my home. I am energetic and warm, yet firm. I've owned and raised 4 dogs over the course of 18 years, from puppydom to old age, and have cared for many more. I am adept at handling dogs large and small - physically and training-wise. ## SCHEDULE I am fortunate to have a highly flexible schedule. Your dog will always be safe by my side. I’m quite fond of dogs, so it’s a joy for me to spend my time in this way. ## APPROACH TO CARE I want to understand the needs and expected behaviors of any pet in my care, given your specific guidance and instructions. I am highly communicative and err on the side of caution, as your doggo’s safety and well-being are absolutely the highest priority for me. I have a highly flexible schedule since I'm in the middle of a job search, so I'll have all the time in the world to hang, play with, and co-work with your pup! I have the entire upper floor of my house available for your dog to lounge and roam in, equipped with multiple dog beds and lots of toys. There's also a fenced yard in the back whose concretedness is optimal for ball bouncing and catching, keep away, chasing, and more!

Stephanie C.
“Stephanie is a top-tier dog whisperer—equal parts dependable caregiver and canine concierge. Whether she welcomed our pups into her home or came to ours, she showed up with love, energy, and a camera roll full of happy tails. She played, she pampered, and she always made sure the outdoor business got handled (dignity intact). Our dogs practically packed their own bags when it was time to visit her—and didn’t even give us a second glance. If Rover had a 10-star rating system, she’d break it.”
