About: I am recently retired and have owned cats and dogs for years. I am currently doing in-home dog sitting for friends so that they can travel. I treat their pets like they are part of the family. I currently have two cats, both strays, that I took in and took care of their medical situation and now they live with me. I had two dogs, both pit bull mixes. Both of them died a couple years ago at the age of 15 1/2. I have not been able to get another dog as I’m just not ready yet emotionally, but I would love to spend time with other peoples’ dogs and cats. I am recently retired. I drive a neighbor to doctor and lab appointments during the week, but I have plenty of time in-between to spend quality time with your cats or dogs. I have a secure large fenced-in yard. I supervise the dogs when they’re outside, I don’t just leave them out there. I’ll also play with them if they are up to it. I am not currently looking to board dogs or cats in my home because of my two cats.
About: I’m a dogs best friend, I like walking and being outside as much as they do! I grew up in a dog household and then began caring for dogs in clients homes for over 15 years now. I’ve taken care of 5 dogs, 5 cats and 15 rabbits at one time in one household before! I’ve never trained my own pets but I’ve assisted with training by enforcing the clients training commands and wishes. Im in good shape and can hike or go for extra long walks if you have an active animal. I’ll love and treat your dog as if it were my own. I think dogs are the best listeners and I love to mirror their unconditional love. I have several references to put you in contact with per request. I have a flexible schedule right now and would love to fill my open hours with pet visits and dog walking. I’m often available for last minute bookings. I have a fully fenced in backyard available for your dog to run. I do not have my own crates so a crate would need to be provided if necessary.
“Johnny is by far the best Rover I have ever had take care of my girl, Lucy. He truly just loves dogs and I am so grateful to him for giving me peace of mind while I have to leave my pup on long work days. Truly 10/10”
About: I've taken care of many dogs and cats over the years and will give your fur babies anything they need. I work from home with a flexible schedule and have a fully fenced in backyard. This allows your pet to go out whenever needed or longer walks. I do have a cat, but he fine with other cats and indifferent to dogs. I work from home during the week on a standard work schedule. I can watch your pet any day needed. Although I work full-time, I make my own schedule and can visit your pet at any time or take them outside if staying at my place. I inquire of the pet owner prior to any boarding or appointment on pet specific needs and will schedule as such. I also have an extra bedroom that can be used for their bedroom as needed.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was 10. I worked as a kennel assistant for two years, where I gained hands-on experience feeding, walking, bathing, and monitoring the health of multiple dogs at once. Outside of work, neighbors, friends, and family have regularly relied on me to care for their pets. I’m experienced with high-energy puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with special care needs. I’m patient, reliable, and treat every pet like my own. I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pups! I’m available for boarding on weekends and for walks or drop-ins on weekdays after 2 PM. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddle sessions, I can easily fit pet care into my daily routine and give your pet the attention they deserve. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with access to a secure courtyard and a dog park just steps away—perfect for safe play and exercise. I have two friendly dogs who love making new friends, so your pup will always have company! I can crate your dog if needed, stick to any routine you provide, and keep you updated with photos and messages. Cleanliness, safety, and comfort are always my top priorities when pets are in my care.

“I highly recommend Laura González for anyone looking for a responsible, loving, and disciplined pet caregiver. I’ve seen firsthand how committed she is to the well-being of the animals she looks after. She follows each pet’s routine with precision, feeding them on time with the food that’s part of their structured diet, never improvising or disrupting their habits. Her respect for their needs, combined with her punctuality and affectionate nature, makes her truly exceptional. Laura has a natural connection with animals. She’s gentle, caring, and highly attentive to details. Pets feel safe and loved around her, and as someone who truly understands animals, she creates a calm and trusting environment for them. If you are looking for someone who will care for your pet as if it were her own—with love, discipline, and dedication. I wholeheartedly recommend Laura.”

Aqua was scared of cats until she stayed with them lol. I can’t recommend Donna enough!!”

Drew Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Carley has been an absolutely phenomenal walker! She’s incredibly reliable, flexible, and—most importantly—genuinely caring with my elderly dog. Her sincerity and trustworthiness are evident from the start, and it gives me such peace of mind knowing my dog is in good hands. She’s also very knowledgeable about medication administration, which is a huge plus. Truly, no dog could ask for better care or company!
Johnny is great! Johnny understands how to build a relationship with dogs and their owner. In one week he has built a strong bond with my dog and she looks forward to her walks with him. He also takes the time to hang out with my dog rather than taking her out for 5 minutes and leaving. Johnny is very professional, responsive and communicates effectively. He is always punctual and will let you know ahead of time if anything has come up on his calendar. He sends pictures daily of my dog and gives me details of anything that went on during their walk. I cannot recommend Johnny enough. Very lucky to have found him!
I highly recommend Valerie, she was so wonderful to work with!! She was always on time for walks, and she sent lots of pictures and detailed updates during each visit! She even noticed that my dog wasn't eating a lot while I was away, and took extra time to hand feed her to make sure she was getting enough food each day! I appreciated having the peace of mind that my dog was in such good hands while I was gone!
Rylee came in super clutch for us at the last minute. I reached out the night before to see if she could walk my golden retriever the next day during lunch. She immediately replied with confirmation. Rylee left me pictures and texted me when she was done with the walk to ensure my piece of mind. I’ll definitely request her next time. Thanks Rylee!
