About: I've always been told that I have great energy and bring a calming presence. I have cared for multiple dogs and cats of all ages my whole life. Because of my Marine Corps training, I am always prepared to handle any situation. I think quickly on my feet and stay aware of my surroundings at all times. I'm 6'5" but I'm not afraid to get on the ground to make the animal feel more comfortable. My connection to the present moment allows me to create a unique bond with every animal I meet. Whenever I walk or sit, the animal is my sole focus. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to care for pets on week days or weekends, day or night! I also know of many great dog friendly woodsy walks. Pets are safe with me! I stay in tune with their moods which allows me to meet their needs. I am very respectful of other people's homes, I treat it like it is a sacred space.

About: I was raised with dogs, having helped train my grandparents German Shepherds and walk my aunts rescue Pitties since I was 12. I've been my family and friends go-to pet sitters since 16. I am a recent graduate, so my schedule is inconsistent as I look for a job in my field. I hope to have the ability to work remotely in order to continue to be a reliable sitter to keep in contact with! Outside of the job search, I have lots of free time to fill with any furry friend! All care instructions are followed to a T. Any questions or problems I have are quickly delivered to pet parents (though I try to ask all my questions before sitting starts)

About: I’ve had dogs for most of my life and have been pet sitting on the side for over 2 and a half years now! I mostly do overnights, making sure dogs are well taken care of and attended to. I am currently pet sitting full time, so I will be available almost every day, at any given time! Whether that’s a drop in visit or an overnight stay! I try to spend as much time as much time as I have with your dog to make sure they have been let out to go to the bathroom and exercise if needed!

Maria was wonderful...took great care of my cat. It was so nice to be away for a week and have the confidence that all was well at my house and with my cat. Signing up with Rover was super easy, the price is fair and I had excellent service. Extremely happy with Maria and my first Rover experience!

About: Pet care experience Thank you stopping to read my profile! My name is Ellen. I am a lifelong dog owner, Presently I have one dog Harry, who is a 10 year old Wheaten Terrier. I have three grown children, and have lived in my home for 35 years. Watching dogs has brought me a lot of happiness and I look forward to potentially meeting your pup. Above all, I value safety. I provide a safe, loving, and engaging environment for dogs of all ages. I have a large yard that backs up to a park and the walking trails, so you pup has plently of room to explore and play - perfect for dogs who enjoy regular walks and outdoor adventures! As a life long dog owner and dog lover I have experience caring for them at every stage of life—from energetic puppies to gentle seniors—and I tailor each visit to your dog’s needs, whether they prefer active play or a more relaxed stay. I do have dog beds and bowls, but if your dog has a special bed, bowl, toy, that would make them feel more at home than please don’t hesitate to bring them along. Your dogs safety and happiness matters!! Every dog is unique, and I want to make sure yours feels safe and happy during their stay. Please let me know if your dog has any specific needs - such as dietary restrictions, separation anxiety, treat limitations, or known triggers- so I can provide the best care tailored to them. I offer: One-time drop-ins, recurring daycare and overnight stays. Whether your dog loves long walks or prefers quiet days, I’m here to make their time away from home as comfortable and joyful as possible. Pet care fits into my scheduyle as a non-negotiable daily routine that starts early to ensure your pet is fed, excercised and settled before I begin my day. I block 20-30 minutes each morning for a quick walk and play time. I have a trusted caregiver in the event of an emergency. Meet and greet introductions, emergency contacts, including veteranian and backup caregiver. My home is safe and secure from and toxic foods, I will provide gates if necessary, learn leash and harness preferences, feeding and medication schedules, routines, any protocols I need to be aware of for safety. Safe and happy place for your pup!

About: Taken care of different breeds, small and big dogs, cats and small critters. Trained dogs used for disabilities. I walk small dogs with a harness only, and don’t allow them to jump from high places, due to their tiny bones. I make sure they are secured before opening any door where they might run off. I have an Instagram page where I upload dogs I meet , dogs I take care of or watch , dogs that were placed in safe homes. I will take photos to give updates. Can change day to day but if notified ahead of time , can usually work around my schedule. I do check my texts and email if something changes. My dogs are sociable, always keeping an eye out, they are like little kids. There is currently a Japanese Chin, Shitzu, Pekingese, Saint Bernard, a cat, a bird and 3 guinea pigs, in the home.

Jennifer was wonderful with our elderly cat, Ricky. She made sure he was well taken care of during the recent huge snowstorm (and even had the front walk and steps cleared). We came home to a happy, purring cat and everything was immaculate.

Adrienne was very good with girls, and both Ella annd Hiccup loved every visit she made. Not only was she amazing with the dogs, she even went as far as cleaning up the snow around our cars and front steps and offered to snow blow the driveway while we were away for the weekend which wasnt necessary but we felt very appreciative that she did/offered. She was very informative whenever Hiccup would find stuff to chew on and destroy and cleaned up any and all mess. Every dog report we got just made us smile with the cute pics she took of the dogs in the snow. Would recommend Adrienne to anyone who's looking for a really great pet sitter even if it's just to drop in for a quick visit to see how the dogs are doing.

Midori was wonderful and took such great care of our two pups, even winning over our little guy who is a bit skittish of strangers. She went out of her way before our scheduled day of services to swing by and meet our dogs and get acclimated with their routines, and was very communicative the day of, sending updates and fun photos of the dogs at play. We will not hesitate to book Midori’s services again - our dogs were safe, happy and properly tuckered out when we got back home!

We thought that Rosalyn was lovely and a perfect fit for Sadie who recently came to us. We really appreciated her dropping by before the day she walked Sadie to get to know her and Sadie ,despite ususally being timid with new people, seemed to be warm up to Rosalyn right away. I would highly recommend her and we will defitely use her again.
