“I recently had the pleasure of booking Anthony as a dog sitter for my two pups, Shiloh and Noël, through Rover, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! Anthony was absolutely fantastic—professional, attentive, and genuinely caring. He took the time to understand Shiloh and Noël’s unique personalities and needs, ensuring they were comfortable and happy while I was away. Anthony kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me such peace of mind. The dogs were clearly having a blast on their walks, and it was obvious they were getting plenty of love and attention. When I returned, Shiloh and Noël were relaxed, well-cared-for, and their tails were wagging like crazy! I highly recommend Anthony to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dedicated dog sitter. He went above and beyond, and I’ll definitely be booking him again. Thank you, Anthony, for taking such great care of my furry babies!”

About: Hi, I’m Ashley. I work from home and offer thoughtful, low-stress care for both dogs and cats. My goal is to help your pet feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away — with a routine that’s calm, structured, and tailored to their needs. Every stay starts with a gentle welcome to help your pet ease into the space — including calming music and quiet downtime. Once they’re feeling settled and secure, we turn up the fun with play, affection, and plenty of personalized attention. In addition to boarding and daycare, I also offer drop-in visits and dog walking, with the same level of care and attention to what makes each pet feel safe and happy. I’m home full-time during the week, which gives me the flexibility to adapt to your pet’s routine — whether they need quiet rest, structured play, or extra attention during the day. I’m also happy to help with last-minute bookings whenever I can. I live in a two story townhome in a pet friendly complex, with a few go-to enrichment tools to keep pets mentally stimulated between walks or play time.

“Kirren was absolutely wonderful! For the first time in years, I was able to go on vacation without feeling anxious about leaving my cat behind. My cat needs a lot of attention and twice-daily medication, so finding someone trustworthy was essential. Kirren went above and beyond—providing extra care, attention, and thoughtful updates that truly put me at ease. She was incredibly communicative, and to my surprise, my cat instantly took to her—something that’s never happened with a stranger before. I can’t recommend her enough!”

Maggie N.

“Shanda was so attentive to our dog Wilbur. She followed instructions meticulously and asked great questions. We loved the updates we got during her drop-in. You could tell Wilbur was head over heels for her! Really lucky we found Shanda.”

About: I’ve been taking care of small dogs on Rover for two years now and before that, watched my friends for years. I only keep one family’s dog(s) at a time so your baby will be the guest of honor. I truly love each dog I sit like they’re my own since I don’t have my own pets. I also have watched several senior dogs. I have work from home flexibility and am home 2-4 days a week for the majority of the day. I also live about 5 minutes from my job and am able to head home mid-day for walks as needed. I have a small home with no other pets or children. Your pet will have a cozy and quiet home with no one else distracting from the attention. My neighborhood has lots of sidewalks and natural areas for outdoor walks.

About: I've been a dog owner my entire life. I have cared for dogs of all sizes, including many mixes, labradors, basset hounds, pit bulls, newfoundlands, and chihuahuas. I have fostered puppies as young as 12 weeks and worked on training and socialization as part of service dog training programs. I’m familiar with various types of harnesses and comfortable working with dogs with various needs. Currently, I own a five year old cattle dog mix, who I have had since he was six months. I love getting to know new dogs and their personalities, and I am happy to adapt to your dogs’ energy level and individual needs. I’m currently waiting for a new job to start, so I’m available most times until September 8th. After that, I plan to continue working with pets as my 9-5 schedule allows. I am diligent about following all client instructions and making sure that your pet’s needs are met. I recognize that you know your pet better than anyone, and I respect that. I also try to make sure that every pet has a great time and comes away feeling loved and cared for.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 15. I was a vet tech for ten years and am very comfortable with special needs pets. I love taking care of pets and will make sure to take great care of yours! I work remote so I’m able to frequently take your pets out and can spend a lot of time with them. Just let me know your pets schedule! I don't do overnight stays but can come early and stay late. I’m able to follow whatever routine you’ve put in place for your pet while you’re gone. If they need any type of medications or special care I’m very comfortable doing so.
