About: I’m an experienced dog owner with two huskies of my own, and previously I had a Jack-Russel terrier I took on lots of walks, so I understand high-energy breeds, strong personalities, and the importance of structure, routine, and exercise. I have a 6 foot fence, that my huskies cannot jump, so if you have a dog that likes to jump, my fence can probably keep them contained in my backyard for their safety. I’m comfortable handling energetic dogs, leash manners, and dogs that need consistent exercise to stay happy and calm. Walks are never rushed—I tailor them to each dog’s energy level, weather conditions, and comfort. I also pay close attention to hydration, behavior cues, and overall well-being. Your dog will receive individual attention, affection, and calm supervision in a home environment. I take pet safety seriously and follow owner instructions closely, including feeding routines, medication schedules (if applicable), and house rules. I am also a mom to two humans, 7 years old and 9 months old. I am a stay at home mom, so my schedule is very flexible for dog walking or drop-ins, but I may have my baby in stroller with me for walks, please let me know if that’s not ok. I recently quit my job at the CDC, I was a biologist, to spend time with my girls during their formative years. I am a stay-at-home mom, taking care of my huskies and baby. As long as you don’t mind me bringing my baby to walk alongside your dog in my stroller, I can walk your dog anytime of day during the week or weekends. I have a 6 foot tall, fenced-in backyard, so I am ideal boarding spot for high energy dogs. I have a 6 foot tall, fenced in backyard and 2 sweet husky ladies to keep your dog company in doors. I can crate your dog in my house if needed. I believe clear communication is key, so I provide updates, photos, and honest feedback during each booking. My goal is for you to feel confident and for your dog to feel secure, exercised, and cared for while you’re away.
“Meredith was very kind and asked thoughtful questions to get to know my cats during our initial meet and greet. She also communicated very well and responded quickly to my messages. Though I only booked two days of services, Meredith was able to pet one of my cats from the very first day! She also provided pictures, videos, and thorough updates on the cats. I definitely felt at ease leaving my cats with her and won't hesitate to use her again.”
“Jay was great! It usually takes a little while for our pit/great dane mix to take to new people, but he and Jay were buddies pretty much immediately. Jay was very communicative and took great care or our guy while we were out of town. Definitely recommend!”
“Jessica and Kristin took excellent care of our dogs while we were on vacation! They provided thorough updates for each visit and were very communicative. I know our pups were well taken care of, because they were very relaxed and happy when we got home. I highly recommend Jessica and Kristin for pet sitting!!”
“Kaitlyn is a competent and trustworthy pet sitter who's skilled and confident in giving medications and injections. We're so happy that she gave great care to our cats and communicated with us regularly.”
“Sarah knew exactly what to do to make me feel at ease when going away on vacation. She was very attentive during the initial meeting and asked great questions to ensure she tailored her visits to my pets’ needs. Her notes after each visit were also informative so I knew everything was ok back home.”
About: Hi, my name is Brittany and I love animals. (I'm sure everyone here says that.) I have been volunteering at various shelters for years, as well as fostering dogs and house sitting for dogs, cats, and chickens. I am trustworthy (I have client references if needed) and I take great care to make sure every pet feels love like they should. :) I do request dogs to be house trained. I can offer a nice walk on sidewalks or the trail, or just throwing a ball inside, if your pet is anything like mine was. (Miniature Rat Terrier, we played a lot of fetch in this condo.) I work from home so there will be a lot of one-on-one time. I’m that someone to water your plants and get your mail while you are away! Prices are based on a 24 hour cycle. (Example: If you drop off pup(s) at 10 am, your pick-up time is 10 am.) If you need to extend your time, 1-3 hours is $5, 3-6 hours $10, 6-9 hours, $15, 9+ hours, full day's rate. This is per dog. My standard routine is working from my laptop, occasional grocery trips, lots of watching Hulu and couch cuddle time. I try to take a daily walk around .5 miles but can adjust to shorter or longer walks based on dog needs. I prefer staying at client’s home, I’ve found most pups feel more comfortable that way. A meet and greet is preferred, just a walk through of how you keep your house, how your pup/s like to be cared for, etc. I’m a homebody, pets will be left alone for no longer than a trip to Kroger.
“I had an unexpected work office visit come up and Ari was able to help out with a drop in last minute. She sent plenty of photos and a summary of how it all went while I’m remote which is so appreciated. She has very caring energy. I will be reaching out to her again!!”
About: I was a cat sitter when I was younger and when I lived out on my own I adopted a kitten who I absolutely loved and created a special bond with. Some cats need extra time and space when getting to know someone new. I am very respectful and understanding of this. I have dog sat for many family members and friends over the years and well as had a dog in a four year partnership. I had three cats and a dog which I cared for on a regular basis. I walked our dog daily and made sure she got the right amount of play according to her weight, breed, and needs. Each animal is unique and requires different types of care. I am eager to get to know your pet’s personality and meet their needs the best I can. I walk every day. I would love to give a not only needed exercise but to feel some joy while sniffing around and seeing the sights of the neighborhood. As far as pet sitting, my job is very flexible as I work a few hours weekend mornings and a few hours two evenings out of the week. I currently have no pets of my own to care for, so I have a lot of free time to dedicate to other’s pets. I want clients to feel safe with me caring for their pet and having access to their home. Respecting guidelines on pet and home care is one of my top priorities.
“I can’t say enough great things about Elizabeth. She came prepared to our meet and greet with a through list of questions about my cat and our home. She was a great communicator and kept me up to date on what was going on with my cat and sent pictures every day. She even brought in my mail, watered my plants, and took out the trash before she left on her last visit. It’s obvious that my cat loved his time with her. I won’t hesitate to use her services again!”
About: Hello! I'm looking forward to meeting you and your pup! I've taken care of dogs since I was a kid, because I grew up with them, but I've worked with dogs professionally for about five years -- mostly woven in with my nannying duties. I look at every dog I meet as a new relationship that I'm building. I love that they each have their own personalities. I love to take a dog for a walk in their own neighborhood, and discover the ways that they communicate while they're on a walk. I learn so much from them! Aside from dog walking, I am an artist and a teacher. I've worked in childcare since 2021; I'm responsible, dependable, and friendly. I can administer medication if needed. Let's discuss how I can help you take care of your pets through regular walks + check-ins! Right now, I nanny in the afternoons M-Th (where I actually walk their dog as soon as I get there!), so my mornings are available for dog walking. F/Sat/Sun, I have open availability. I'm an experienced housesitter, so I am comfortable with door keys/codes, etc. and will treat your space with the same respect that I treat my own home. All you have to do is set me up with the door access and tell me where the leash and bags are, and me and your pup be off, for however long you'd like their walk to last.

Couldn’t recommend Elizabeth enough! She was watched my dog and 2 cats while I traveled internationally. She was incredibly accommodating and communicative. This was our first time leaving our dog for so long and she did a wonderful job of making him feel comfortable and relaxed. One of my cats also is usually incredibly shy around strangers and Elizabeth is the only sitter I’ve used from Rover who he comes out for. Our flight got delayed and Elizabeth was very accommodating to the change in the schedule. We are so appreciative!
Micah was fantastic, we had a great experience and highly recommend for any dog watching needs! We appreciated the pictures and updates from Micah and trusted that our dogs would be well taken care of, which they were. Micah was very attentive to the dogs and their needs, our expectations were exceeded!!
I will absolutely be having Brandon watch Mazie again! He was so attentive, played with her, and she snuggled with him. It made me happy to see Mazie to getting so comfortable so fast. My place and litter boxes were left in pristine conditions. Brandon is a 100/10 sitter
Benjamin was absolutely wonderful with Blu and Puddin! From the very first message he was communicative, professional, and genuinely caring. It's not easy finding someone you can trust with a high-energy Husky AND a 13-year-old teacup Yorkie, but Ben handled both of them with ease. He followed all of our care instructions perfectly and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Puddin can be a delicate little lady and Blu keeps you on your toes, but Ben took it all in stride. We came home to two happy, well cared for pups and that says everything. We will definitely be booking with Ben again; highly recommend! 🐾
I hate to brag on her because that books her calendar and makes reservations tight. However, there is no way to say anything contradictory. Sarah has become part of our family. I totally trust her with my fur babies. I think my cat loves her more than me sometimes. And she is very attentive to any changes. Like this visit she knew something was up when my dog didn’t eat the last day. She notified me and made an extra visit to come to check her condition. She is proactive when anything is abnormal. Not only does she notify me but offers suggestion on what to do. My babies are seniors like me now and she adjust their activity as needed. I could write a book on how wonderful, loving & caring Sarah has and continues to be. I am so glad Sarah came into our lives. My fur babies say 5 stars are not enough. They see her as a special Aunt that has always been there for them, loves on them and makes them happy. Oh the eating problem turned out that my dog was missing me. Since I retired we are together all the time. Once I brought my suitcase inside she ate all her food. Nice to know that my dog loves me that much and not just Sarah ❤️
Faith is amazing with our two boys (13YO Shiba Inu and 8YO GSD/hound mix)! Especially the Shiba, who can be a little stubborn. But for her, he’s his best self, and even lets her brush out his coat! Faith is our go-to and makes leaving our pups home so much easier on us, as we don’t need to worry about their health, safety, or happiness!
