“5 stars - Karen was so sweet with our cats and sent lots of picture updates. She is very much an animal person, and it shows - our cats love her, and we have hired her again since to take care of them. Would definitely recommend her for anyone looking for a pet sitter:)”

“She was wonderful with my dogs from the very beginning. She connected with them right away, which immediately gave me peace of mind. She followed all instructions carefully, was respectful of my home, and maintained clear, consistent communication throughout. I truly appreciated her professionalism and kindness. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”

“Olivia was amazing with our cats for drop in visits! She was helpful, kind, and even our more skittish cat loved her. We will definitely book again!”

About: I have always been the go-to person for many of my family and friends to go and feed the dogs or hang out with them. I grew up with dogs and always understood cues on when to give space or when they needed something! I adopted my dog almost two years ago and immediately started dog walking with her and later did basic training. At the moment, I work part-time from 1:00-6:30pm. My mornings are free during the week and I try to stay available for weekends. I am more likely to accept a new request with at least a week advanced notice, I will try to be flexible if that is not possible. In other pet owners home, I will make sure to follow any guided directions or precautions in order to ensure trust and safety in the home environment. In my home, I keep areas clean and free of anything harmful to dogs. I throw toys away that are damaged or could cause harm because of damage. I give lots of enrichment through feeding games, training inside and outside, and toys that allow her to use her brain! I make sure she eats well and drinks plenty of water while getting lots of outside time!

About: As a pre-veterinary student, I am currently seeking a little side business to help me pay for my education. I work as a veterinary technician assistant at my neighborhood animal hospital. I've worked in veterinary care for the last two years, dealing with animals. I've been working with animals for more than five years. I am able to raise awareness about the need of animal welfare. Additionally, I have a lot of abilities and can provide medication to any pet that is currently on medication if necessary. In terms of providing services for each healing pet, I am knowledgeable with post-operative care. Someday in the future, I want to further my education. Please message me with any queries or worries. Since I work part-time at my local animal hospital and have most weekends, including two days of the week, available, I have chosen to take online programs in the meantime. Those with hectic schedules can benefit from my services. Being able to provide for animals as much as possible when I can makes me happy. It can be stressful to entrust your pet to someone else, but I'm here to help. In the field of animal care, I hold numerous credentials. I am a trained veterinary technician assistant with training in animal behavior. I have also worked as a kennel technician for two years.

“April went above and beyond and best of all my pets just love her! Highly professional with fantastic check in videos. I will certainly have April at the top of my list next time I need pet care.”

I'd love the opportunity to hang out with your pet. Im not currently working as I am disabled but am looking for something to help me be more active. I'll have plenty of time to hang with your pet. Im available pretty much any time with some notice. I will care for your pet as if they were my own. I will respect your home and am big on following whatever directions you have for me for their care.

“Thank you so much for looking out for our sweet girl. We loved the bandana and the photo op you did for her as well lol. You truly went above and beyond for Iv and us. We will definitely be contacting you again the next time we need a stop by. Thank you again!!”

About: My whole life I’ve owned dogs and cats big and small. The neighbors even relied on me to take care of their furry babies. I currently adopted my own dog who I love and care for! Not only will I watch and walk your fur baby, I will give them the exercise, playtime , love and affection that they need. I am also able to take care of pets other than cats and dogs such as bunnies! I’m currently working part time at a doggy daycare and attending college majoring in business and entrepreneurship, so my schedule isn’t too flexible but I can make things happen and fit you into it! Safety comes first in my environment always. I keep an eye out the entire time I am with your pups and they never leave my sight. Walking them they will be on a tight leash at all times and I watch for any signs of discomfort, overheating, anxiety, sore pads, diarrhea, etc.

About: Hi! I’m Tania☺️ I love animals, especially dogs. I have experience taking care of 2 of my own (since puppies), family dogs, roommates and friends! Right now I am off for the summer, so I have plenty of free time to help you out! I have a flexible schedule, just let me know with time when possible! I can drop by to feed or play with your pets, clean pee pads, walk, let outside, or crate if needed! Just let me know instructions!

About: As a dog owner and someone who has been around dogs for as long as I can remember, I truly believe they are our best companions who stand by us through thick and thin. Their unconditional love and unwavering support bring us immense joy and comfort. My schedule works perfectly for me, as I have a day job that allows me to be available in the afternoons and evenings to spend time with some furry friends. I treat them as if they are more than just pets, ensuring they feel truly special by showering them with extra love and attention. I focus on creating a joyful experience, making sure they enjoy both my company and the services I provide.

“I felt peace of mind knowing that my kitties were being looked after. Receiving pictures and video was much appreciated! Kindness and attention to detail made Odalys & Mel special.”

About: Hi! I’ve been caring for small dogs (under 40 lbs) for years—originally for friends and family, and more recently for clients through Rover. I also had the honor of caring for my own senior dog during the final stage of his life, an experience that deepened my understanding of the needs of aging pets and taught me the value of patience, empathy, and attentive care. I currently share my home with my energetic senior English Springer Spaniel/Blue Heeler mix—equal parts cuddlebug and goofball. Living with a disability has never limited my ability to provide a full, enriching life for her or for the dogs I care for. I’ve developed safe, effective strategies for training and daily care that prioritize the comfort and happiness of each pup. I offer in-home visits only, allowing your dog to stay in their familiar environment and routine—ideal for pets who thrive on stability. My flexible, open schedule means I’m available when you need me: weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I’m experienced with administering medications (including pills and eye drops) and love keeping dogs engaged with enrichment activities like puzzle feeders, sniff walks, and tug-of-war. Your dog’s happiness and well-being are always my top priorities! I currently don't work so I have a very flexible schedule to come to your home and feed, walk and play with your fur babies My open schedule will ensure that your dog gets properly exercised. I can do separate walks for multiple dog households. Crating can also be done.

“Amazing, she was very attentive to my dog took lots of pictures and my sweet dog will miss being with Mercedes”

“I can’t thank michael enough. He provided house sitting for my two cats over a holiday and ensured every single one of my instructions were carried out precisely. My babies were both lookin good and feelin great when I returned and I’m so thankful to have been partnered with Michael. Will definitely utilize him again.”

About: I’ve been a vet tech in the army for 2 years. I love it! I’m trained in basic aid for dogs and cats including providing any medication. I have experience with multiple dog breeds small and big, aswell with cats. My military work hours are 6am-1pm with 1 hour lunch at 11am. I have a lenient boss and is more than willing to allow me to leave work early when something comes up. I have so much free time after work and on weekends which makes it a perfect opportunity to hangout with someone’s furry friend! I absolutely love animal interaction. I love going to the park on calm sunny days, it is calming and relaxing. I would love to bring a furry companion to enjoy it with!

“Ximena was a big help and an awesome first time using rover experience. She did an excellent job taking care of my 4 cats with daily drop ins. Truly cares about your little fur animals and gave some great updates/photos during the week.”

“Mercy watched my 3 dogs while I was away and sent pictures during her stay showing them having a great time with her. She checked in showing that she spend a lot of time with them and I came home to happy dogs.”

About: I’ve been the resident dog sitter in my friend group for the last decade. I typically stay in their homes so the animals can stay in their own comfortable environment! I love taking them on walks or just laying around the house together! Looking forward to meeting your furry friends! I work from home so if I am sitting at yours, all I need is a WiFi connection and I can be present and attentive! I live in an apartment but have a schedule which allows for regular playtime and potty breaks! If I stay at your house you also may see some clean counters and organized fridge (bit of a tidy upper :))
