About: With over 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats—and 5 years of house and pet sitting through personal networks—I’ve found true joy in this work. Whether I’m walking your dog, stopping by for a drop-in visit, or staying in your home, I provide thoughtful, dependable care that keeps your pets feeling secure and loved. I’m highly reliable and only take on bookings I know I can fully commit to—your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I’m nurturing and respectful, and I love being active and playful with animals when it suits their personality. I treat every pet like a cherished family member and strive to make their routines feel calm, familiar, and happy while you’re away. I’m currently looking unemployed so pet care will be a significant part of my weekly routine. I’m excited about the opportunity to make watching your pet my top priority. I only offer pet care services in the client’s home, because I believe pets feel most secure and comfortable in their own familiar environment. I care for each pet with the same attention and respect I would give my own—whether it’s following a specific routine, administering medication, going for energizing walks, or providing gentle companionship. I take the time to understand each pet’s needs and personality so I can offer care that’s consistent, calm, and tailored. I also only accept bookings I know I can fully commit to, so you can count on me to be reliable, present, and fully focused on your pet’s well-being.

About: I have had pets all my life, I have house, pet and plant sat for 18 years now. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs and cats. Medications are no problem. I enjoy walks just as much as the dogs! I typically travel through a house and pet sitting site. I love it so much I thought I would make it my job! My schedule is flexible. I care for pets in their own homes. Rover insists you start out boarding in the sitters home but I do not offer this service. I pet sit in the clients home only. Thanks :)

About: I have been fostering for almost 10 years and have taken care of cats, dogs and horses growing up my whole life. I am familiar with giving meds and special needs for dogs and cats as well. I am working part time to spend more time with my kids and dogs and my kids also love new companions we take in and care for. I have just been wanting to care for more animals in my area. I have a fenced in yard and 2 dobermans and a doberdoodle. They are all dog and kid friendly. My dogs are vetted and up to date on everything. My dobermans are the reason I started fostering as they love new friends! My doberdoodle was my foster fail that I love dearly. I do have a couple kennels but if your dog does better with no kennel I do that as well!

“Jonathan was super fast to respond, both and first request for service and every message after! He took great care of my baby, and even picked up and put away some shoes she decided to get out and play with while I was gone lol. Thorough report with photos and great communication. I will definitely recommend and use again! Thanks again”


“Shelby is awesome! She takes great care of our dog, allowing us to go out of town without having to worry about him at all!”


“I felt very comfortable that my boys were well taken care of! Ashley treated my babies like they were her own! I will definitely use her again!”


“Leanne is an extremely conscientious pet sitter. She spent extra time with our dogs to ensure they were comfortable with her prior to us going out of town, and was extremely communicative the entire time we were away. We will definitely trust our dogs in her care in the future and are so glad we found her on the Rover app!”


About: I’m a very experienced animal lover with 10+ years of experience working in veterinary hospitals. I work from home full time Monday - Friday so your pet would not be home alone often. I have a 2.5 year old yellow Labrador who loves to play! I live in my own house, have a big yard (not fenced but I have 60ft leads attached in the yard), and I live across from the beach. Please feel free to reach out with any questions - I’d love the opportunity to watch your pet! I work from home full time Monday - Friday so your pet won’t be home alone much. I have a flexible schedule so can take time for walks, potty, and playtime as often as needed. I have a large yard - not fenced but I have 60 ft leads. I live across from the beach so have water access to Lake Michigan to swim. I also have a 2.5 year old yellow Labrador who loves to play!

About: I’ve been dog walking, pet sitting and doing home check ins for friends family and coworkers since I was 10. Love getting out in nature on long walks or checking in on your pets if you have to be away all day! My 3-4 day work week allows me free time on Monday- Wednesdays for walks and check ins. I’m available most mornings! Occasionally available for house sitting or boarding. I have a large, tidy house where your dogs will be able to roam worry free. I live on a quiet street surrounded by woods and a park nearby, perfect for long walks and lots of trees to sniff without having to worry about street traffic.

“Andrew is very respectful, caring and kind. He sent very detailed pictures and messages about each visit. We would definitely have him back!!”


About: I have been caring for dogs all my life and love spending time with them! My grandmother was a breeder and dog trainer who taught me everything I know. I have grown up assisting her in boarding, raising, and training golden retrievers to perform in dog shows as well as agility training competitions (sometimes taking care of 13 at once!). I have also been sitting for the dogs of friends and family for many years and have one of my own. Dogs are near and dear to my heart and I love spending time with them, taking them for walks, and throwing a ball to get them some exercise. I look forward to caring for your loved one! I work from home so whatever works for you works for me! I am flexible in how I can help take care of your dog and meet their needs. I typically take my own dog for walks 4-5 times per day, but I have cared for dogs that need more exercise (e.g., running, chasing a ball) and senior dogs that need less (e.g., more pets and quiet bathroom breaks than full walks). The house has 12 rooms, 3600 square feet, so plenty of space for dog beds and toys. a large front yard, and an enclosed play court. We have a large front yard as well as a smaller back yard for quick bathroom breaks. We also have an enclosed court and have sidewalks all around our neighborhood as well as surrounding neighborhoods that are perfect for nice long walks. I have experience giving dogs both oral and injectable medications as needed. I have to give my 8 year old dog medication everyday, so I am already in the habit of providing this care.

“Jamie has been so patient and kind dropping in on our very shy cat while we’ve been away. Jamie is excellent at communicating and always responds quickly. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jamie again!”


“Sonya was great! She did two separate drop insurance and it looked like our pup had a blast. Thank you!”

“Absolutely a great experience…. For our dogs and ourselves Thank you sooo much Amanda”


About: I've been around dogs and cats my whole life. I naturally connect with animals. I am comfortable around all dogs. I have two dogs now, and went through a puppy class with one of them, and then did extensive training with him for his first year. They are both "good dogs". I fostered dogs with a local shelter until I foster failed, and I have also previously volunteered at another shelter, walking the dogs and just spending time with them. I need to work around my daughter's school schedule, so I am available M-F 9am-2pm. End time will depend on how far it is from her school. I have two dogs that love other dogs. I live in a rental and we set up a temporary fence in the backyard. That's all.

About: Animals are an absolute passion for me. I have shared space for many felines and two pups – all are extremely well taken care of. I am able to provide the same amount of love and care for your pups, as I do it for my own. My comprehension of the needs of pets, especially those of dogs, is outstanding – from feeding them food with the right nutrients to daily excersize and interaction. With my compassionate and caring nature, and familiarity with the basic needs of animals, I have the ability to care for your pet perfectly. I am available most day's to care for your fur babies. Please find my schedule and please reach out if you have more questions. Thank you Currently not available for any type of overnight or boarding services. This may change in the future with housing needs . Thank you for understanding.

“Cathi was very attentive to the needs of my pups! She kept me aware of how they were doing, and their poops, pees, etc.😁. I will definitely be using her again!”

“Riley is an outstanding pet and house watcher. We have had her watch our 3 dogs and 2 cats on several occasions, for up to 2-3 weeks. She loves them and they love her. She send pictures and updates, walks them, feeds them and takes special care of them. Our redbone coonhound has epilepsy and requires medication 4 times a day - that was not problem for Riley. Super responsible and just a great person. We and our pets couldn't provide a higher recommendation for her!”

“Megan has been an outstanding animal provider and care taker for all 15 years I have known her. All animals who come into her home always get the best care and attention. Her home is clean and provides lots of space outside for physical activity and her routine is perfect. I trust her with my own high energy/maintenance German Shepherd when I’m away on farrier trips, and he always returns home well fed and happy.”

10. shannon m.
“My dog Ackee loves her adventures with Shannon! Shannon has looked after Ackee in Santa Barbara, LA and Jackson Hole, WY. Ackee is high-energy and Shannon takes her for long hikes and to parks where Ackee can play with friends. Even while it was winter in Wyoming, Shannon always made sure Ackee got plenty of activity. Shannon gives Ackee constant love and is always looking out for her safety. Ackee notoriously tries to eat random food and items she finds on the ground and Shannon is extra attentive to make sure Ackee doesn't ingest anything she isn't supposed to. Shannon is a trustworthy and loving dog walker and is always prompt with pick ups and drop offs.”

He also had to give meds, which he did willingly and with no problem. If you are looking for caring and attentive pet care I highly recommend Alex!”
