7. Jaiden F.
About: I grew up around and with dogs and absolutely adore them. From chihuahua’s to rottweilers I love them all! I was bit as a child so do have some fear when it comes to reactive dogs and would rather not sit for them. While my expertise is cats the more dogs I’ve sat the more comfortable I am. So not only am I helping you but you’re helping me :) My boyfriend and I both work 9-5 most days but can always stop by for checkins on our breaks. We sit together and work around our schedules to make time for the pets we care for. We have multiple cats as well as fish, frogs, and a lizard. We know how important routines are and do our best to keep your pet in their routine. We ask that your Rover profile is updated with all the information needed to care for your pet up to your standard. Some examples would be feeding and bathroom routines.

13. Morgan W.
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for pets, including frequent dog sitting for family members, friends, and clients through this site. I’ve managed feeding, administering medication, taking them outside, and going on walks, ensuring they receive the best care and attention while keeping them happy and healthy I’m back to work as a preschool teacher and have a weekday schedule from 7:30 AM to 4:00 PM. However, I’m still available for pet care on weekends, during holiday breaks, and occasionally on weekdays if my schedule aligns with a client’s needs. As a dog sitter, I can either stop by the client’s home or stay overnight, depending on the dog’s needs. I’ll make sure to let the dog out for bathroom breaks, provide food at their scheduled times, and give them the care and attention they need.
14. Jenny F.
“Jenny came to my home to care for my 2 cats while I was on vacation. She did a wonderful job, spent time with them both, and texted me an update to let me know how they were doing. She’s fantastic and I would highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future.”
15. Nancy D.
“My two dogs told me that they had a great time at Pooch-E-Ville. Nancy is so energetic. She walked them, socializes with them, and lets them live in the house with her. For $25 bucks a day, a loving dog owner couldn't ask for more. I will send my two guys back every time I need a place for them. I want the best for them and so far Pooch-E-Ville is the best place I've seen.”
16. Katie M.
“Katie was a great pet sitter. Always good with our pets and they really love her company. Very reliable and a great communicator. I would highly recommended her.”
17. Patricia P.
“With Patty taking care of your pets, you will be able to completely enjoy your time away with no worries for your furry friends at home. Patty is a true animal lover. She is responsible, reliable, punctual, and will make sure that all of your pet needs are met while you are away. I trust her 100%!”
18. Glen P.
About: I grew up around lots of dogs and cats, and as an adult have been a pet parent to both cats and dogs. I'm exceptionally thoughtful, caring, and patient with pets and you can rest assured that your dogs, cats, or other pets will be in good hands with me. I'm currently employed in the gig economy (Uber/Lyft/DoorDash), meaning the days and times I work is quite flexible. I can largely work around any client's schedule. If caring for a pet in my home, I have a fenced in yard, there are no kids or other pets. If caring for a pet in a client's home I am very thoughtful, considerate, and respectful. For dog walking I carry poop-bags and depending on length can bring dog-friendly water bottles.
19. Jaime R.
“Jaime has watched my dogs numerous of times. My dogs (and us humans) absolutely love her! She takes care of our boys as if they were her own and you can tell right away she genuinely cares not only for your pet but for as your home as well. I am definitely a neat freak and when I came home to an even CLEANER home I was beyond impressed. 10/10 I (and Hank and Bo) would definitely recommend her over anyone else!!”
20. Hannah D.
About: I’ve been growing up with animals ever sense I can remember. I have gained lots of learning experience along the way. Specially taking care of my leopard gecko and bearded dragon. Animals rely on us, as much as we rely on them for support. Everyone deserves love and to be treated with kindness. I’m a student studying radiology. I commute to college so, I’m home when I am not on campus. I’m also a college athlete. In my free time I like to help out in anyway I can. I have a few acres, unfenced. I live in a quiet area and the beach is close by. I follow strict instructions respecting a owners rules.
