This was my first experience using rover and Barbara made it painless! She sent pics of my dog and I was glad to have someone to let her out. I would recommend her

About: I have been surrounded by animals my whole life and truly adore them all. Whether they are big, small, furry, or fluffy! I’m experienced and comfortable with both dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. I share my home with one sweet standard poodle and two lovable cats who are my whole heart. Whether it’s dog walking, drop in visits, or house sitting, I’m here to provide your pet with lots of love, care, and attention like they are my own! I am a college student and have a remote internship this summer so my schedule is flexible. I am comfortable with early mornings as well as late nights. Whether it’s in my home or yours, my goal is to make your pets as comfortable and happy as possible. I will follow your pet's usual routine as closely as possible, from feeding schedules and walks, to playtime and cuddles! I also want parents to feel as comfortable as possible! I love to provide pictures and updates so you can relax while away.

About: I’ve had pets since I was 5. I’ve always been in charge of their wellbeing. I currently have 4 pets so handling a couple more fur babies isn’t a problem for me. Either they’re big or small. I’ll treat them as my own. I currently am not working so I will be with your fur baby 24/7. I am very strict with feeding times, potty breaks and play time. I have a fenced in back yard with lots of room to run. I also live a block away from the park so a nice walk would be able to happen as well. My family has a total of 4 cats and three dogs but not to worry all dogs are very friendly and I will be there at all times during interaction if anything where to happen. Our cats are super chill too they don’t want nothing to do with our dogs or humans.

Kayla noticed that one of my cats was struggling to finish their food during her visits, which resulted in my other cat trying to eat it. Her response to this dilemma was truly above and beyond: Kayla would hide the leftover food and make a second trip over later in the day (even though only one daily visit was requested) to make sure my cat ate the remaining food and didn't go hungry!

Mae did an amazing job stopping by to watch our dog Theo! She was reliable, caring, and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated and made sure Theo got plenty of attention and care during her visit. We’d definitely have Mae watch Theo again and recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!

About: I’ve had considerable experience with cats and dogs — over 50 years of being around them — and I now share my home with three cats. I’m now starting to offer pet care as a way to earn money, and I’ll come to your place for drop-in visits, overnight stays, and house sitting. I’m also open to caring for other pets. I’m a calm, patient person, and animals really respond to that energy. When I arrive, I make enough noise so pets aren’t startled, then I spend a minute talking with them and reading how they’re feeling before feeding, litter breaks, potty breaks, or play — whatever they need at that moment. I’m comfortable giving shy pets the time they need to warm up. I don’t have much experience with special needs care, but I’m happy to handle meds or anxiety with a steady, reassuring approach. If a dog barks, I’ll soothe them with a calm voice; if they pull on the leash, I’ll pause until they settle; if a pet’s shy, I’ll let them come to me. My schedule is flexible and I can work around your dates, including weekends and holidays. People often tell me they appreciate my calm, thoughtful approach — it helps my pets feel safe and at ease. I’d love to meet your cat or dog! IMPORTANT- I am flexible. 😊 I will do my best to accommodate reasonable requests. We will discuss details when I come to meet your pet(s). My schedule is flexible since I’m retired. I can work around your schedule, or adjust my own to fit what your pet needs. I do have a couple evening meetings each month, and I’m busy on Sunday mornings.

Kayla is detail oriented and clearly loves animals. We had a great meet and greet where she took notes, and she was very patient with my high energy dog. She filled out the rover card with very pertinent details and supplied several photos. I look forward to having her back and would happily recommend her to any other doggy family!!

About: Hi! I have 5 dogs and 4 parakeets myself, I love to craft or just binge watch movies. I’m currently in college, I’ve always loved animals and I lost my job in March, I’m just trying to find better things for myself.

I have a fenced yard so I’m always watching my dogs, I sit outside with them and just watch them play. I also take them on walks when my parents are able to help since we have alot

About: As a lifelong owner of dogs & cats, I’ve provided care for all of my animals when it comes to feeding, grooming, walking, and companionship. For pets that are not my own, I’ve provided assistance to friends and family when it comes to walking, feeding, and pet-sitting (10 years of experience). I have experience with pets of all ages (puppy to senior, kitten to adult) and love them all the same! I work a full-time job (typical working hours) with lots of flexibility after 4:30pm during the work week. On the weekends, my schedule opens with availability of mornings afternoons & nights! Safety and trust are my top priorities. In a client’s home, I maintain a calm, structured environment where pets feel secure and cared for. I follow feeding, walking, and medication instructions exactly as provided and always keep pets supervised indoors and outdoors. I double-check doors, use secure leashing practices, and never introduce unfamiliar animals without clear permission. I also can provide consistent photo and video updates so pet parents feel fully informed and at ease while they’re away. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and stress-free!

About: Ever since I was a very little girl, animals have been the object of my attention. My parents still love to tell stories about how as soon as I could walk, as little as 2, I would walk into pet shops and ask to hold snakes and other “scary” animals. I love them all and have had the luxury of either owning or taking care of every kind of pet. I truly mean every— dogs, cats, fish, turtles, lizards, birds (ducks, rescues, etc), tarantulas, frogs, newts, axolotls, rats, mice, hamsters, gerbils, moles, rabbits, squirrels, raccoons, and I’m sure I’m missing some. I’ve also taken care of an extensive array of bugs. Just ask! While I mainly and primarily care for furry friends— I have lots of experience with other pets. :^) I’m currently only working with Rover and with Wag Caregiver, so I am always at home! I spend all of my time at home with other’s people pets. I am almost exclusively at home. I leave to go to the store and run errands, but otherwise, I’m a complete home body. I don’t have a fenced in yard, but I have a very safe and pet friendly neighborhood to walk your dogs. I do plan to move into my first home within the next 6 months, and will have a fenced in yard then. Aside from that, my home is perfectly equipped for your furry (or maybe not so furry!) companions. They are allowed on almost any and all surfaces. Beds, couches, floors, all.

I’ve used Kelci twice now to check in on my two kitties. She is kind, reliable, and I know my babies are in good hands while I’m away! Will definitely be using her for their care in the future as well.

About: I graduated with my associate in Veterinary technology in 2022. I have taken care of and worked with all breeds of dogs and cats. I’ll give all of them the same love as I give my own. I am currently working full time at FedEx. Depending on your animals schedules and your requirements I will feed them and walk them bright and early make sure they got all the early morning energy out before I’d need to head out to work. Will clean up any mess if any was made in the process. After work I will go straight to check on the animal and do the same as in the morning feed, walk and play. If your pet is taking medication I will make sure to give it the right amount and at the right time. If you don’t have a fenced in yard I will also make sure I leash them can never be too safe.

About: Since I could remember i’ve always had animals. I grew up with mostly bigger dogs like pit bulls and mastiffs but had my fair share of terriers as well. I’m also a cat mom and have 4 kitties that drive me crazy but bring me joy at the same time loll. I’m very well rounded when it comes to animals honestly it doesn’t matter what kind of animal you have I love them all as if they were my own! I can work with any personality whether your fur baby is playful and extroverted or shy and introverted, I adjust well to any and everything thrown my way! Basic puppy training is no problem for me as I have helped my parents train our dogs for years. I’m currently working Saturday and Sunday from 3:30am to noon so anytime after that for walks, playtime, etc is perfectly fine! I am free on weekdays for house sitting, walking, playtime, and check-ins! Because my animals aren’t friendly towards new animals, i do not offer animals to stay in my home. I do require to know of any behavior “issues” or habits before the service, just so I am prepared and aware. I would like to know any food allergies or restrictions as well, i like to get treats and don’t want anyone’s furry friend getting sick.
