“Ashley was fantastic & I definitely plan to use her services in the future! As a first time Rover user, I was feeling anxious about finding the right fit. Ashley exceeded any expectations I had - she is a great communicator, attentive to detail, and so very caring. I felt totally at peace knowing Molly was in her care - and that is all I could have asked for. Thank you, Ashley! So so grateful.”
“I had a positive experience with Megan. She provided my cat with all the attention he needed and made sure he was well cared for while I was away. I loved all the cute pictures she also took!”
“Garrett was wonderful with our dog. He was extremely prompt, communicated on every visit and shared photos so we could see him while we were away. He played with and tired out our dog on each visit. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a reliable and kind pet sitter!”
“Ashleigh is great! She's super communicative and always happy to give my cat some extra snuggling. She truly cares about the animals she pet sits and I'm so happy Kimchi had someone to cuddle while I was away 🥰”
“Victoria has proven to be very reliable, and has been very accommodative to changes in my schedule. She comes to watch my Yorkie puppy during mid day, and takes extra care to play with him and watch him in the yard. She’s been a huge help, and have no problem trusting her with my pup and home.”
About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals including hamsters, birds, and snakes which includes feeding, watering, and taking care of their habitat. However my main focus has been walking and taking care of dogs daily or for a long period of time. A special service would be walking dogs to Oregon Ridge Park. I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to play and/or walk your dog. This would allow me the opportunity to take your pet on a longer walk. For the pet’s well being and comfort I would make sure I have all the necessities for the pet, including food, water and toys. In addition I would need to have all the information for the dog in case of an emergency which would include both the pet parent’s number and the vet.
“This is my third time having Margaret drop in to take care of my dog while I am out of town. She is always dependable, responsive, and leaves very detailed report cards and takes many photos which really gives me a sense of relief while I am away. I appreciate you helping out!”
About: Hello, I've been dog walking for over 4 years, pet sitting included! I have found my niche and caring for animals and making them happy! I not only want to walk and care for them but be their friend. Someone they can be happy to see and trust! I have a few dogs I walk each day but I'm looking for more! I walk each day but have a flexible schedule, looking to care for more fur friends. I currently live with 3 cats so pet sitting here is not ideal but can definitely pet sit at others homes with great care and attention.
About: Hi, I’m Laura! I grew up with dogs and have recently come to love cats too (thanks to my apartment building’s no-dog policy…rude! But I get it.) I work from home and can often be available on short notice if you’re nearby. I genuinely enjoy the fun, good-natured company pets bring and am looking to build lasting relationships with both Doggies and Kitties and you! Their most important person. I’m open to all types of care— drop bys, walks, sitting—as I grow on Rover. Bonus: I’m great at belly rubs and scooping poop like a pro. I work full-time from home. Since I am new to Rover I am still figuring out my routine availability. Please ask for what you need and I am happy to talk it through to see how I can help. As a Mom I completely understand the importance of routine to keep your pet happy and healthy. Your rules are my rules! I would like to extend your care even when you can’t be there.
“Maya was amazing. Jumped into a last minute need for our pup. Left us a wonderful note and amazing pics of our Boy. It’s obvious that she loved and cared for our pup like her own.”
About: I have taken care of dogs of all different sizes and personalities for 6 years. My friends and family all turn to me when they need help with their pets! I have experience administering medication and learning how your dog likes to play! I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time for your fur-babies! As long as you can work with me, I can go above and beyond to ensure your pets and your family are happy! I live in an apartment with my two 1-year-old cats who love all other animals and people! I have a fenced-in dog park in my complex. I love being outside and walking with any and all animals! I am comfortable with any fashion of pet-care so long as I am provided with specific instructions on how YOU care for your buddies. I like to maintain expectation and stability with the pets!
About: I have over 30 years of experience, taking care of both cats and dogs. I currently am without any pets so I am looking to do this to help out other pet owners and to fill the void in my heart. My daily routine consists of a fair amount of time at home. I also have the capability of working at home if necessary. As well, I can come home during lunch in order to let pets outside. I live in a calm Street where walks are safe and easy. As well, I love a good long walk on the NCR Trail for dogs.
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs and cats over the years—friends, family, neighbors. No matter who it is I will treat your pet how I would treat my own! I work full-time, but I am available late afternoon or early evenings to pop in for potty breaks, play, and feeding. I am also available most weekends! I have my own dog who is 3 named Colby who I have had since he was a puppy. All dogs and cats have their own quirky personalities and I pride myself on learning those quirks so I can better take care of them.
“It’s so nice to know Tara is keeping an eye on everything when we travel. She gives us a friendly report each day and lets us know if she sees anything that needs our attention. It puts my mind at ease knowing she’s there.”
About: While I’m newer to professional pet care (3 years), I’ve spent lots of time walking and caring for dogs for friends and family. I’m dependable, gentle, and always make sure pets feel safe and happy. I’m especially good with routines and following care instructions closely, whether it’s feeding, walking, or playtime. I may be newer, but I’m passionate about animals and committed to giving every dog the attention and love they deserve. As a part-time worker, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to have consisted time frames to dedicate to pet care. I enjoy spending time with animals, and taking care of pets fits naturally into my routine—it’s something I genuinely look forward to. Whether it’s a walk before work or a check-in visit after, I always make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routines closely to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they have fresh water, meals on time, regular walks, playtime, and lots of affection. I also keep the space tidy and provide updates to the owner for peace of mind, when needed. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I create a safe, cozy environment and stick to their usual schedule as much as possible. Whether in their home or mine, I treat every pet with the same love and attention I would give my own.
