“She did a great job, was on time and everything was completed as requested, would book again”
About: I am a mature adult and I have just started taking care of others pets. I have had dogs my entire adult life. I rescued Great Danes for a while as well as owing my own. I’ve had small to large dogs. Puppies & geriatric. I am skilled at giving meds. Most importantly, I want to just love your pups the way you would while you are out of town. I work from home so I am here all the time. If I do run errands I have cameras to check on the dogs while I’m gone. I am also available for drop ins for pets that are close to my home. I have a fenced yard. We have a great neighborhood to walk in. I recently lost my last Great Dane. I haven’t gotten another yet. My dogs have always slept in the bed with me. I will honor the owners requests. Most of the time I move their bed from room to room wherever I am going to be so they are with me. I have an area set up for food & water
“Chelsea went above and beyond dropping in on our two cats! She was very flexible when I needed to extend another day. I will definitely ask her again!”
“Very thankful for Angela’s care. It has made life better. For humans and animals.”
About: I understand the patience and determination required when handling and taking care of dogs and cats. Some animals require minimal attention and supervision while others need constant attention. I will happily tune to whatever needs the animal may or may not have. I’m in between jobs at the moment, and even after getting a job I would still love to help out on weekends and whenever I can. While in your home I will respect every guideline provided while also respecting the boundaries a guest should have when in someone else’s home. If your pet makes a mess I will clean it, among making sure they are behaving well. While there are times where pets might not listen or might be difficult, it’s understandable when they have so much going on in their little worlds.
“This was my first experience using Rover and I have to say that this won't be my last! I was very wary of letting someone whom I didn't know come over to take care of my dog but talking with Genavieve beforehand made me feel comfortable. Our arrangement allowed me to have a weekend out without having to worry about my pup's safety and health and it's the most I could have asked for. She was very helpful and I would reccomend her to everyone.”

About: I’ve been dog sitting since high school, providing walks, feeding, and grooming for dogs. I currently live with an English Mastiff, whom I occasionally care for by feeding him and taking him on walks. I currently work part-time, giving me a flexible schedule to accommodate pet care needs. I’m available for bookings on both weekdays and weekends, including daily walks. I am highly schedule-oriented and prioritize ensuring pets feel comfortable and safe. I monitor their well-being closely, and if I notice any signs of discomfort, I promptly notify the owners. If a pet makes a mess, I clean it up and inform the owners.
“Hannah was a very attentive sitter to our cat, Hardee, and she updated me with messages daily, sometimes 2x/day. Hardee takes meds and she was astute in giving his meds and following instructions. She sent great photos of him as well which was comforting to us. I would recommend Hannah highly!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds since I was 16. I am capable of giving medicine, staying overnights, and anything else needed! I love pet sitting, as it connects me with so many new animals I currently work part time at Harbor Freight , but my shifts are usually close to five hours. If given enough time in advance, I can take off a few days if necessary to play with your pets! I have five big dogs at home, who play safely in a fenced in yard. I keep an eye on them every time they are outside, and sometimes I’ll even sit outside with them when it’s nice out, just like I do with my clients dogs
“Kristen came to my house to check in on my two cats while I was out of town. My very independent cat warmed up to her very well, and she kept our boxes clean and did everything single thing I asked for! She had great communication as well. Thanks!”
About: I have had experience with both senior animals and puppies and kittens! I know how to care for, train, and be patient with animals! I am very flexible and caring! I work part time, but typically early in the mornings! I am off every weekend so I can take care of all your weekend needs! In my home, I walk my dog out on a leash or watch her outside, she does not run away. I will care for your animal however you want or need!

“The meet-n-greet with Cayleigh went very well, and all requirements of the visit with the dogs were discussed. She followed up with a good visit where all requirements were met with no additional information needed. Good Job.”
“Dana was amazing to check in on our elderly cat while we were gone. She was so kind and considerate to all of our cat’s needs and was available to talk to about our cat everyday! We are so grateful for her! 💕”
About: I’ve always loved dogs and other pets, and have taken care of my siblings’ pets since I was 14. I’ve had to walk, feed, and play with all their pets and have loved doing so! I’m a current part-time student, with a small singing job on the side. Both of these things take up around three days of my week, but otherwise I’m completely free! I have my own car for transportation. Like stated above, I have a car and a lot of free hours that I can dedicate to pet-sitting! I am able to set away consecutive time so your pet is getting the most attention possible.
“Phoenix was amazing! He was right on time everyday, extremely patient with my wild bunch (I have 3 big dogs). My babies aren’t used to being with out me so we had a couple of accidents..Phoenix responded like a champ when I feel like some people would have said that wasn’t what they were getting paid for. I think my dogs might prefer him over me at this point because he gave lots of treats. Would definitely use again! Thanks Phoenix!”
“My 3 dogs have never boarded anywhere so we found Maddie on Rover. She came and spent time with them and became their best friend. I would highly recommend her for your furbabies! Great job!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and have had one in my home since the age of 9. Friends have trusted me to pop in and check on their pets while away as well as family has trusted me to care for their dogs when need be for I am super friendly and seem to be a “dog whisperer” I currently work as a receptionist at The Pet Hospitals and can take time after some shifts to go take care of pups in need I typically allow the doggos free space to roam if need be when they are house dogs and can easily make sure spaces outside are closed off so I can safely monitor and control play time
About: I’ve had dogs, cats, fish, turtles, livestock, you name it! I love every single one of them, but specifically cats and dogs! The companionship they bring is unimaginable, and I love spending time with them and seeing them happy! :) I work almost full time hours, and get a new schedule weekly (every Friday) for the following week! Once I have that schedule, I will work around those hours make your babies a priority! I can’t bring animals to my home, due to the amount I have at my house. I feel like if I did, it would put stress on your babies because of the changed environment and new animals. But, in your home, I will do whatever is instructed of me, and give your animals a fun play date and hang out!
