About: I've been an animal-lover my whole life <3 I've had pets ranging from hamsters, to birds, to turtles, and now a bunny and cat! I have experience caring for senior dogs (my own fur baby was 16 when she passed), and have helped take care of friends' and family's pets. I work east coast hours, so I am up early and finish my work day in the early afternoon. I'm also available weekday afternoons and evenings. I have experience pet sitting and housesitting for friends. I can get up to take care of pets early or stay up later as needed.

“This was our first time using Rover and we were very nervous. We have had great experience with dogsitters AND awful ones in the past. We were looking for someone responsive, responsible, calm, loving towards the dogs, good communication and trustworthy. Bryan was quick to respond to messages and to meet with us and our dogs. We came home after our trip and the dogs were happy, healthy and well-taken care of. The house was good also. We are very happy to have found Bryan and will definitely use him again!”

“Caroline was a lifesaver! The thought of leaving our kitty at home with a stranger for 16 days was nerve-wracking, to say the least! Thankfully, we found Caroline, and she took the anxiety out of the equation. She took care to follow out instructions and maintain Tatsu's kitty routine with minimal disruption. In addition, Caroline gave regular updates and communicated in detail about how things were going. It was clear from her communication that Tatsu had settled in well with her new caregiver. When we returned home, we found a healthy and content little cat and a spotless home. We are deeply grateful for Caroline's cat sitting and would highly recommend her for anyone seeking a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter.”

About: I have been dog sitting my dogs for 5 years and walking them for over 10 years. I have 3 dogs who all have different needs and I am able to provide individual love and care to all. I am currently in graduate school and live in the upper unit of a house. I have 3 dogs with their own unique needs but am able to provide different environments based on their individual needs. I love getting to know the dogs I work with and picking up their habits as well! I am great at going on walks with dogs and would love to be your next dog walker! I love all dogs like they are my own and always ask to pet every dog I see in public. I recently finished my master’s degree and am looking for a job while I study for the MCAT. Currently, I am home all day and able to provide pet care all day. I am flexible on pricing so message me! I love animals, especially dogs and treat every dog like they are my own. I am very loving, but respectful of when dogs want space. I have 3 dogs I help my mom care for while she works 10 hour days during the week. I have boarded dogs before and am able to provide one-on-one care as well as a personal and private space for all pets.

About: I am a dedicated and reliable pet sitter with over 3 years of professional experience and a lifelong passion for animal care that began when I was 12 years old. I provide loving, active, and attentive care for both dogs and cats. Having grown up with my own cat and dog (who now lives happily with my parents), I truly understand the responsibility and emotional bond pet owners share with their animals. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels from energetic puppies to senior pets requiring gentle care. I focus on daily exercise, play, feeding, and companionship tailored to each pet’s unique needs and personality. Pet owners can expect regular photo and video updates, a safe and enriching environment, and complete peace of mind while they’re away. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals combined with consistent reliability and professionalism. I’m working full time but I am off at 4pm so I’m more flexible during the evening so if you need someone at those time I’m ready to serve. And also if you’re away on vacation. But I’m free on Saturdays. I live in a two bedroom apartment with a decent amount of room in the living room. With a patio. But I’ll take the dogs out to the park more for high activity.

She sent photos, was always quick to respond to inquiries from us and was flexible at the end of the stay when there were return flight issues. The house looks just as we left it (if not cleaner! Haha) and we absolutely will book her again and recommend you do, too.”

About: While I've loved and cared for my own Pit Bulls and Beagle, 4 years experience living with a Bull Terrier has prepared me for so much with our furry besties! Keeping to schedule is very important, and for their comfort I will definitely give them time to adjust while I'm caring for them. I'll cuddle if they like, and leave them be if that's their preference. Most recent experience with animal care was for my senior dog during incontinence & weakening hips/hind legs. And the younger dog was hit be a car, so he was also a patient to assist and carry for almost everythinghe did. And I'd do it all over in a heartbeat just to be with them again! (My dogs ate twice daily and vocalized his need for breakfast at the same time that he needs to relieve himself. In order to prevent accidents in the house, I make sure to respond to their barks and pacing around me or near the door. To prevent my energetic dogs from uncontrollable zoomies, regular walks satisfy their momentum while giving time for obedience and awareness in public.) I like to find out what makes our pets feel safe and loved, because who wants to be stuck in an awkward situation? I'll acknowledge that spontaneous throw up, poop, and urine are all natural accidents that can be cleaned without shame. I don't tell at or get pushy with your animals, I will be patient & show them patience.

About: Hello, My name is Gloria Itzel and I am currently blessed to share my household will a beautiful black and white short haired tuxito cat and two lovely very energetic Shih Tzu/Yorkshire Terrier's. I Love playing sports, staying active, and discovering new things. I believe there is nothing better than to spend that time while hanging out with our amazing lovable furry friends. I would prefer to walk small dogs as I am 5'1 weighing at about 130lbs (hence my choice of breed for companionship are a Shih Tzu and a Yorkshire Terrier) but any four legged friend of yours is a friend of mine. I am more than pleased to be able to spend some time with your furry friend while staying physically active! Please let me know if you would like any special requests.

Casey was great! We booked him short on time, but he made time to come meet the dogs and us, learn their routine, and make us feel comfortable. The dogs were in great hands. He updated me they were cozy and sleeping, kept the house spotless, and followed our instructions. Casey’s as really personable and reliable, we will book with him again.

Sameena took amazing care of our dog, Luna! She was so attentive, followed instructions, made sure Luna always had physical activity, snacks and water, and took amazing care of our house. Sameena was communicative and sent adorable photos. Luna also needed a few medications while we were gone, and Sameena made sure we were updated and always knew how she was doing. I would highly recommend Sameena to watch your pet and house sit.
