About: Like many pet parents, I often rely on friends, coworkers, and family to help check in on our fur babies when my wife and I travel for work. While that support is invaluable, it doesn’t always line up—and when it doesn’t, it can add unnecessary stress to an already busy trip. Because of this, I truly understand how challenging and stressful it can be to leave your pets behind. That’s why I offer reliable pet care services for fellow pet parents who travel frequently or simply need an extra helping hand. My services include check-ins, walking, and house sitting. At home, we have five cats: one 16-year-old geriatric grump and four energetic “crazies” ranging from 3–5 years old. Each has a unique personality, but all share a love for food and plenty of belly and head rubs. I specialize in cat care, as cats are often misunderstood as being “easy.” While some are, others require more attention and emotional support—something I know firsthand. Cats, like people, can experience separation anxiety, stress, and even depression when their routines change. My own cat, Chuck Roast, is a perfect example and always needs extra care when I travel. This has taught me how important it is to understand and respect each cat’s individual needs and personality. While cat care is my specialty, I also have experience caring for dogs. I’m always happy to meet you and your pets beforehand to make sure it’s a great fit and that everyone feels comfortable before moving forward. I know your pet is a cherished member of your family, and I promise to care for them with the same love, patience, and attention they deserve. I work out or RTP and have a very flexible schedule to support your pet care needs. Please reach out and let me know your unique needs. My rates are flexible. Always happy to discuss this to see how my services can help your needs. I work a pretty set schedule and am able to walk your pets, let them out to potty, do check-ins and feed them, or house sit at your place(dependent on my schedule and if I’m traveling for work)! If interested, we can see how I can help!

“Sophie did a great job with Jacky. Sophie went well above the minimum and took him for walks, played with him in the back yard and sat with him on the couch. Sophie communicated with my regularly via messages, pictures, walk routes, and video. I recommend her highly.”

About: I grew up with two standard poodles from their puppy years to being old men, so I'm prepared for the challenges and joys that any stage of dog care can bring. I love going on long walks and taking furry friends geocaching! I'm patient and understand that consistency and affection is necessary to reinforce good behavior. I also know that every dog parent knows their dog best and misses them dearly when they are away, so I am prepared to follow any instructions and provide as many photos and updates as you need! I am a medical student! I can provide care on the weekends and walks when I’m not in the hospital, or before and after shifts. I have experience house-sitting with dog care for extended periods of time. I am a conscientious house guest and like to leave the space better than I found it.

“This was the first time we booked service with Hannah. We were very impressed by her performance, we found everything clean and in order, exceeding our expectations. We will definitely book her again and recommend her to our friends.”

Stefan R.

“Thank you for taking such good care of our puppies! Paris sent us pictures and kept us updated and was so patient with them. Would definitely recommend Paris (:”

Allie B.

“I had a great experience! I felt confident that Bentley (my dog) is in good hands and I received regular updates and pictures which was really nice. The space he was in was very pet friendly, clean, and welcoming. I will be using him again and I think you should too!”

Jill Z.

“Aneliese was great with my buddy juju! Highly recommend her to anybody needing a sitter!”

About: I've had a dog in my life for the past 17 years and have loved every second of it. Dogs truly are god's gift to man, and I try to do everything in my power to allow them to have the most engaging and enjoyable experiences possible. For the past year and a half, my family has been fostering dogs until they are adopted. Because of this, I have experience watching over and entertaining all kinds of different breeds of dogs with different attitudes and levels of energy, usually multiple dogs at once. With the services I offer (house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking) I will make sure each dog gets individual attention, proper care, and of course loads of affection. I enjoy playing with dogs, cuddling with dogs, wrestling with dogs, playing fetch with dogs, taking them to dog parks, and anything else they could possibly desire. When taking care of your dog, you can be confident that your dog will be in a loving and fun-filled environment. I am currently working full time as a graduate student so my schedule is skewed toward weekend booking starting Friday afternoon/evening through Sunday evening. That being said, I am able to make exceptions depending on the specific situation, so please feel free to reach out if you are at all interested! I'm only able to offer pet car in the client's home at this time. However, I strive to ensure pets are as comfortable at home with me as they are with their owners, and try to re-create the home schedule that they are used to with their owner, including meal times, walks and bathroom break, and cuddle and play time. I make sure to keep owners in the loop with pictures/videos and 1-2 updates per day. Additionally, I strive to leave the home as clean and tidy as when I arrived, so the owner wouldn't even know I was there.

About: I’ve always grown up around animals in a big, loving family that treats pets like family members, so caring for them has always come naturally to me. While I’m new to Rover, I do have hands-on experience caring for my own pets as well as helping family friends with dog sitting, check-ins, feeding, walks, playtime, and giving lots of attention. I genuinely love animals and enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I’m patient, kind, dependable, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your dog loves energetic walks, belly rubs, or just a calm companion, I’m happy to match their needs and make sure they’re well cared for. I’m currently a college student and I’m the Army Reserves taking one summer class and working part-time, which gives me a pretty flexible schedule this summer. I have plenty of free time for dog sitting, drop-in visits, walks, and giving pets the attention they deserve throughout the day. I’m especially available for families who need reliable help during vacations, work hours, or busy summer schedules. Because of my flexibility, I can often accommodate different routines and make pet care a genuine priority. Your pet’s comfort and safety are extremely important to me. I understand how important trust is when someone else is caring for your furry family member, so I always aim to provide dependable, loving, and attentive care. In your home, I will respect your space, carefully follow all instructions, and keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and behavior to make sure pets feel secure and happy. I believe in gentle care, patience, and creating a positive experience so both pets and owners feel confident and at ease.

“Sofia was extremely communicative and sent lots of pictures. It was clear that all of my animals loved her, including two of my more skittish and shy pets. I can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I'm not a professional with fancy certifications, but I am a dog person. I owned and raised my pit mix from puppyhood for 13 years—so I know what it takes to care for a dog properly, keep them happy, and build real trust. The biggest advantage? I work from home. That means while I'm watching your dog, they're never alone for long stretches. They get consistent attention, regular breaks outside, and someone who actually cares about their wellbeing—not just a checkbox on a care log. Your dog won't just be watched; they'll be treated like they matter to me, because they will. I work from home, which is the real game-changer here. Pet sitting isn't a side hustle for me—it's something I can genuinely fit into my day without it feeling rushed or like a checklist. When I'm watching your dog, I can check in throughout the day, take them out for bathroom breaks, keep them company during work calls (the calm kind), and make sure they're getting the attention they need. No long gaps where they're waiting alone wondering when someone's coming back. It's flexible too. I can work around your schedule—early morning, afternoons, weekends—because I'm home anyway. Your dog gets consistency and care without me having to squeeze them into an already-packed day. In my home: Your dog gets a safe, comfortable space where they're never alone for long. I work from home, so I'm there throughout the day—letting them out for bathroom breaks, keeping them company, and making sure they have water and a calm environment. They'll be treated like they're part of my routine, not an inconvenience. In your home: I respect your space and your dog's routine. I follow your instructions on feeding, walking, medication, or anything else specific to your dog's needs. I'll send updates so you know exactly what's happening, and I treat your home with the same care I'd want for mine. Either way: Safety and trust are everything to me. I know what it's like to care deeply about a dog—I had mine for 13 years. Your dog won't just be fed and let outside; they'll get genuine attention and someone who actually notices if something's off.

About: Hi! I’m a student who loves animals but unfortunately can’t have my own right now, so I’d love to spend some time with yours! 💖 I’ve been dog walking and sitting since high school, as well as having grown up with dogs! I love getting outside and staying active. Happy to walk or run with your dogs depending on their energy level. I’m reliable, caring, and super excited to get to meet your pups! 🐶💖 I am currently in school and have the largest availability at night or on weekends! However, my schedule can be variable during the week so feel free to reach out during weekdays as well! ☀️ I can adapt to the environment of your home! I’m happy to hang out with your pets, crate them as needed, and take them out in the neighborhood. If your pets are big cuddlers, I am too! And if they prefer some distance, I’m happy to coexist and make sure all their needs get met!

About: I have been an animal lover my whole life. I have had every animal you can imagine. Closest to my heart were two yorkies that lived a grand life of 16 and 19 years old! I’m not the proud mama of 4 frenchies! (Yes it’s an obsession mixed with a mental disorder) lollll! I have had pets with special needs and I love the baby them and love them just as much if not more than you! I’ve used this app myself and found life long care takers for my babies and thought why not give back! I work from home and I have a very flexible schedule so I am available to walk ur babies or spend time with them on a schedule that works for you! My dogs have the life of luxury! Some people have even said when they pass away their second life would be to be my pets! They have a nice two acre fenced in yard to run around in and blankets and toys galore for snuggling in when they r inside. I talk to animals like they are humans and I love to see all their personalities!
