“We are so grateful to have found Sarah to watch our cats while we were away. One of our cats is extremely timid and Sarah was very kind and patient with her - she's the only cat sitter that our girl has ever liked. We appreciated the detailed updates and photos. It brought us so much peace of mind. We will definitely be hiring Sarah to watch our cats in the future.”

Flexible Pet Care Schedule Aligned with Your Pet's Needs As a full-time remote worker with a flexible schedule, I’m able to integrate pet care seamlessly into my daily routine. I work from home Monday to Friday and occasionally take on part-time shifts during evenings and weekends. This means your pet will almost always have someone home with them, ensuring consistent companionship and supervision. I'm available seven days a week and happy to accommodate your specific scheduling needs. While there may be occasional times I need to step out for work or travel throughout the year, your pet’s safety remains my top priority. If your pet is crate-trained or feels more comfortable in a crate when left briefly alone, I’ll ensure they’re settled safely and securely. I build regular walks, playtime, and outdoor breaks into my day to keep your pet active, stimulated, and cared for.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for the past five years through dog sitting for family and friends, as well as regularly walking and caring for my own dogs. I have experience with feeding, walks, playing, basic care, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and am excited to build more experience and meet new furry friends caring for dogs through Rover. My availability changes throughout the year as I balance school. Whenever I have free time, I’d love to spend it caring for your pet! I’ll always keep my calendar up to date and communicate clearly so you know exactly when I’m available. I always follow your pet’s usual routine to help them feel comfortable and at ease while you’re away. Whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, litter box care, or lots of cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. I’ll also keep you updated with any questions I may have, messages and photos so you know your pet is happy and in good hands.

About: I've taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. Both big and small dogs. I've always loved dogs and look forward to meeting and supporting more. I work full-time Monday through Friday. I am off at 4pm. And if I can be of any assistance to anyone who works weekday afternoons/evenings/weekends or just needs some extra help with pet care, that's awesome. I know what it's like to feel guilty leaving the house for work/going out or having an emergency that leaves your pets home for extended hours. Pets are not just pets. They are family! And if I can bring owners some peace of mind knowing their dog was let outside to go to the bathroom and checked in on, that's amazing. I will strive to accomplish what needs to be accomplished efficiently, whether that's letting your pet out to use the bathroom, make sure their food and water dishes replenished and get some pets and a little bit of play in. If it's a walk your dog needs, I'm your girl. I love going for walks in general and have experience walking dogs of all sizes. I'm also on a weight loss journey so talking your pet out for a stroll is great for both of us!

About: I've been caring for dogs for years — my own plus regular sitting for friends and family. I'm comfortable with all sizes and energy levels, from couch-potato seniors to high-energy pups who need a good run at the park across the street. I handle feeding routines, medications, and anxious dogs who need extra patience without a problem. Clean, attentive, and I treat every dog like they're my own. I work from home, so I’m always around the dogs. They are never left alone at home. So I can take them for walks and if your dog needs to be watched I am the guy for that I work from home, so your dog is never left alone for long. I have a big backyard right across from the park, so there's plenty of room for playtime plus easy walks. My dog is friendly with other animals, so your pup has a friend . Dogs stay on their usual feeding and walk schedule, and I'll send photo updates through the day so you know exactly how they're doing. Any special routines, quirks, or needs — just tell me upfront and I'll follow them exactly.

“Always know our fur-babies are in good hands with Cassandra! She is so communicative and we love getting the updates while we are away. Thank you!”

About: 🐾 About Me I’m a wildlife biologist and lifelong animal lover with experience caring for animals of all ages, personalities, and species. 🐰 I had bunny before I left for Asia for a year and he was the sweetest little guy!! He was free-roam and littler trained and loved all the snuggles. I learned a lot by taking care of him - as a prey animal you need to take extra care to bond with them and consider their perspective. He still lives happily and remains spoiled with his foster family 🥹 🐱🐶 Pet-Sitting Experience • I have cared for my boss’s senior cats while they traveled, following detailed feeding/medication instructions and providing regular updates • While living in Asia I rescued cats, dogs, kittens, and puppies — providing food, baths, shelter, and vet visits 🐢🦜 Exotics Welcome • I volunteered at the Ontario Turtle Conservation Centre (animal husbandry) for 2 years • My family has owned and fostered reptiles and parrots, including helping rehabilitate a parrot from an abusive situation 💛 My Care Style Calm, reliable, and detail-oriented. I treat every animal like my own and love sending photo and message updates so you can travel worry-free. Right now I’m in-between finding work and looking at Master’s programs for a career change so I have a lot of freedom and flexibility with my schedule. When caring for pets in your home, I treat both your space and your animal with the utmost respect. I follow your routines and house rules closely, keep doors and gates secure, double-check leashes and enclosures, and ensure a calm, low-stress environment. I’m attentive to behavior changes, proactive about safety, and experienced with everything from seniors to exotics. Your home is left as I found it, and you’ll receive regular photo and message updates so you can feel confident your pet — and your space — are in safe, caring hands 🐾💛

About: I've had pets my whole life but it wasn't until I adopted a dog of my own that I truly learned what it means to care for one. I now have experience with reactive and fearful dogs, counter conditioning, desensitization, and canine enrichment. I just received notice of an indefinite layoff so I will have all the time in the world to do something I genuinely enjoy. I feed both my dog and foster dog using enrichment tools(snuffle, puzzle, Kong, find it) trim their nails with a Dremel weekly, give them meds daily. They're always so excited for their daily walks, rain or shine. Though our foster boy needs to be bundled up to handle the cold. I believe following a routine is important. Pets will be fed when they're used to, given meds as prescribed by your vet. Light grooming if requested (I may charge for more challenging grooms. Details can be discussed). If your dog is afraid of nail trims, brushing or anything else, we can work together on cooperative care to make necessary care less stressful for them.

About: With three years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my commitment to giving each pet personalized attention and care. I have experience with puppy training basics like leash walking and potty routines, and I’m patient and gentle with senior pets who need extra time and comfort. Pet care is my top priority — I am fully available and flexible to fit your pet’s needs, whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or overnight care. I’m happy to adjust my schedule to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well looked after anytime you need. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I always make safety and comfort my top priorities. I feed them on schedule, make sure they have fresh water, and keep their living space clean and cozy. I give them lots of love, playtime, and attention so they feel secure and happy while you’re away. I follow any special instructions you provide, from giving medication to sticking to training routines. I respect your home and keep you updated with messages and photos, so you always know your pet is safe and well cared for.

“Melina was outstanding during the stay with our dog. She really has what it takes to take good care of Floquinho. She was really nice and got along with him just fine since the first day they got to meet each other. For sure I indicate Melina as a rover, our dog just loved her and already misses her. Thanks Melina for your magnificent care.”
