Julithza is new to us but we love her already! She came to meet Norbert before the first walk and was very communicative during the whole process. She sent great pictures from the walk. We will definitely be using her again!

Aniya did an amazing job with Max and Milo with taking them out and sending me pictures while they were out on their walk. Anyia was very informative and I truly appreciate the fact that she took the time to be informative. I will use her again to take care of my fur babies.

About: I have taken care of dogs as well as other pets for as long as I can remember. From walking dogs, to feeding mice I have done it all. I have had lots of dogs at my house before because of family events or people we know that have asked our family to take care of their dogs for them while they're gone. I really can do it all when it comes to pets. I can handle big dogs too since I'd say I am a bigger and stronger dude. I am currently a student at UAB and don't have classes on a few days and am available as of now. The weekends work great for me to pet sit, walk, feed, or do any other tasks for people's dogs as well. I take care of pets with extreme care as if they were my own. I always make sure my pets at home are well fed, taken care of, and overall just happy! I have lots of experience with pets and like I have said above I can do it all!

About: I have had multiple dogs growing up I do have a dog right now and I have dog sat my aunts dog while leaves. Dogs and children are the two things I really love in this world and I feel that I know how to care for them as they are my own. I a pretty free after 12 during the weekdays and on the weekend I am very free to do what ever needs to be done. I have a lot of time to spare and spend with dogs rather that be a nice long walk like I do with my dog everyday or just playing with for a while. I live in an apartment with my own dog but I have plenty of space for them to play and keep each other company. If you dog does require a crate I have enough space for that and have a nice trail and a park next to my apartment for me to walk them around.

There are not enough positive words to describe Rebecca. I injured my knee walking my dog in the park and it left me unable to even walk her around our yard. I had no one close by that I could turn to for help so I signed in to Rover to see if I could arrange the care she needed while I dealt with my situation. Two walkers turned me down flat and a third completely ignored me, but not Rebecca! Not only did she respond quickly and accept my bookings, she started the same day and has gone the extra mile and then some. She treats my dog with the same care and love that I would and the piece of mind that’s brought me is immeasurable. If you want someone who is friendly, professional and will care for your dog the same way you would there is no one else you need to reach out to. There aren’t enough people in this world like her and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 13 years old. I have my own pup named Benji, he is a Springer Spaniel, and a cat named Maizy. I will go above and beyond to ensure your baby is well taken care of. I also love to take and send pictures!! I currently work part time and have availability for check ins Thursday-Sunday. Whether your dog or cat needs to be fed, a potty break, or a quick play date I am available. I also can stay for extended periods of time and am willing to stay for a couple hours in the home if necessary and if you are comfortable! In your home I will of course ensure your pet has their basic needs met, including food, water, and pottying. But I also would love to take your dog on a walk or play fetch outside! As for cats I would love to play with them with their toys and keep them entertained! I will never let a dog outside their home or yard without a leash and I will only work with dogs of a size I can safely manage.

About: I would love to walk/ hike with your pet, care for it at your home, or drop in to let them out. I have always loved animals ever since I was little. My first job was a pet sitting service, I was frequently asked to watch neighbors dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, etc. My friends often rely on me to take care of their animals while out of town and I have experience with older dogs as well as puppies. My dog passed away earlier this year and I won't be ready for anther dog anytime soon, but I would love to share love with your animals. I work seasonally and am currently off for my winter season. I would love to spend time with your animals either at your home or on walks/hikes! I can not watch pets in my own home but in my client's home I make sure to follow their rules and ask the important questions up front. I make sure to not leave pets alone too long and to be there for feeding times and to keep them company at night.

About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. Caring for animals has been my life long ambition. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your fur babies. My fiancé And I love training and exercising with them every day and they push us to be the best we can be. They bring so much joy and happiness to our life. I have 5 years experience pet sitting for friends and family as well. They are the support system that told me about this app. Work from home but it’s not very demanding. Extremely flexible schedule. Pets need routines just as much as humans do for a sense of calm and safety. To continue to keep your (our) fur baby safe I will keep trash cans covered or inside a latched cabinet. Move all chemicals to high shelves or behind secure doors. Keep cords, chargers, and other potentially harmful items out of reach.
