About: Thanks for considering me to be your sitter! I’m coming back to Rover after taking a break from the platform and would appreciate the opportunity to work with you. As a dog owner, I know how hard it can be to find the right person to trust and care for your pet. I love animals and will do everything I can to make sure yours is well cared for. Trust and safety is my top priority. I’m a dog owner and have experience working with all kinds of dogs with different needs. I enjoy getting outside and being active so always happy to care for dogs with a more energy but also just as happy to hang out with mellow dogs who like to relax. I’ve also had cats in the past and happy to care for them as well. During the week I work remotely and my job provides good flexibility. I am available most mornings, afternoons, and early evenings on weekdays and some weekends. Safety and the well-being of your pet is my number one priority. If you have any preferences or requirements for your dog or cat I’m happy to accommodate. Depending on your needs I can provide food, treats, crating, walking, indoor/outdoor play and more. Just let me know!
“Our kittens loved Ryan. Ryan kept the litter box area - even cleaning up little accidents with care. Ryans affection for cats is genuine too. As a cat person, I appreciate that.”
“Samantha was so great with our hyperactive nutball German shepherd Remington! We get nervous leaving her with people but she responded so amazingly to Samantha! Very clear that she loves animals and it showed with how happy our pup was!”
“I needed dog walking help on short notice, and Eleanor made me feel so much better about my absence. I got notes and pictures that let me know how my puppy was doing each time she dropped in. I would definitely work with Eleanor again.”
About: I grew up around dogs. I have experience caring for many different types of dogs, old and young, big and small. I can administer medication both orally and injection when necessary. Love all breeds. I work full time but with a fairly flexible schedule so I can adapt to meet a pet’s needs. I am also available on weekends. I believe every animal is unique and need their own attention and care. I love getting to know animals and really making connections. I feel that the most important part of pet care is genuine affection for the animals.

I am available to work Monday through Friday up until 3pm! I am currently on summer break so unfortunately once the school year starts back up my availability will go down.
