About: Need some exercise for the fur ball, big or small? Let me get those steps in while you relax. I have experience with overnights as well and have dealt with high and low energy dogs. Excited to add to the resume and look forward to working with you! I am currently working an 8-5 job during the weekdays. I have to travel a bit, but find myself around home most of the time. Looking to assist in the evenings, weekends, and overnights if possible! I will always respect your boundaries for any in home care and can taxi the pooches if necessary. I do not have my own travel amenities in terms of carriers and such, but I provide my own leashes for walks.
About: I have had animals in my life ever since I was 4 years old. I'm pretty new to Rover, but have been petsitting by word of mouth since 2020! I've done extensive research on pets and what kind of care they prefer, what kind of diets are healthiest for them, and all the details that bridge the gap between their domestication and their primal instincts. I will provide loving care to dogs, cats, and other small animals like birds, hamsters, rabbits etc, and I will leave your house in just as good, if not better, condition than I found it! I work full time, but my schedule at work is incredibly flexible, so I am available on weekdays and weekends. I can take animals on walks if needed, or just be there to feed them and let them out daily. I am very flexible in terms of what services I offer, as it depends on what services you need! I can come and petsit at your house, and I can spend the night if you don't want your fluffy friends to get lonely. I can board for certain pets but not all, as I have a very picky cat of my own, so it is best to message me directly about what you are looking for!
About: With over 50 years of caring for and loving all animals, primarily cats and dogs, you can confidently trust me to treat you dog/cat with respect love and safety! I have 6 years experience in training dogs with "positive reinforcement training" I can help curb bad habits and help while on walks with effective leash training. I have experience with administering meds also. We can hike, run, bike or walk at any pace, slow or fast, whatever your fur baby likes. I am retired so I am wide open. I prefer earlier walks and hikes in the summer months to avoid the heat. I have a truck and toyota carolla and can transpot if needed I have fenced yard with no current pets at this time. The neighborhood is quiet and shaded sidewalks for cool walks in the summer months
About: I have a bachelor's degree in Animal Science, which has given me a strong foundation in animal health, behavior, nutrition, and proper care. In addition to caring for dogs, I have extensive experience working with livestock, including cattle and horses, so I'm comfortable handling animals of all sizes and temperaments. I'm patient, dependable, and attentive to each animal's individual needs, whether that means providing exercise and enrichment for an energetic dog or giving extra care to a senior pet. I'm also comfortable following detailed feeding schedules, administering oral medications, monitoring for signs of illness or injury, and communicating regularly with owners to provide updates. My goal is to provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care so you can feel confident your animals are in good hands while you're away. I work full-time during the week, with one day each week working from home, which gives me extra flexibility to spend time with pets throughout the day. On my in-office days, I have a one-hour lunch break that allows me to stop by for potty breaks, feedings, walks, or check-ins if needed. Before and after work, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care, and I'm fully available during evenings, weekends, and holidays. I carefully plan my schedule so every pet receives reliable, consistent care. Whether it's daily dog walks, overnight stays, or caring for livestock, I'm committed to keeping your animals safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I strive to keep every pet's routine as consistent as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. In a client's home, I follow their feeding, exercise, medication, and care instructions closely while making sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for. I'm respectful of my clients' homes, keeping everything clean, secure, and just as they left it. If caring for pets in my home, they will have a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of supervision, exercise, and enrichment. I make sure each pet has fresh water, a consistent feeding schedule, and lots of love and attention. With my background in Animal Science and experience caring for dogs, livestock, and other animals, I'm confident handling pets with different personalities, energy levels, and care needs while always prioritizing their safety and well-being.

About: With 15 years of pet care experience, I've built a reputation as the sitter friends and family turn to when they need someone they can truly trust. Growing up surrounded by dogs and cats gave me an intuitive understanding of pet behavior, and over the years I've cared for digs of all sizes from gentle giants to tiny lap dogs, anxious rescues to energetic puppies. What makes me different is my versatility and adaptability. I'm equally comfortable managing multi-dog households, caring for dogs and cats simultaneously, and adjusting to each pet's unique personality and needs. Whether you have a senior dog requiring gentle, patient care or a high-energy breed that needs extra playtime, I know how to read their cues and provide exactly what they need to feel safe and loved. My experience with diverse breeds and household dynamics means I can handle whatever curveballs your pets might throw! I take pride in maintaining each pet's individual routine while ensuring harmony in multi-pet homes. You'll receive regular updates and photos throughout my visits, so you can relax knowing your furry family members are not just being watched, but truly cared for by someone who understands that every pet is someone's beloved companion.

My open availability means I can easily accommodate various scheduling needs - whether you need morning walks, midday check-ins, overnight stays, or last-minute care. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet sitting never feels like work to me. It's actually the highlight of my day! I'm happy to work around your pet's established routine and can be flexible with timing to ensure they receive consistent, reliable care. Whether your pet thrives on a strict schedule or is more go-with-the-flow, I'll adapt to what works best for them and your family! I believe the key to excellent pet care is maintaining consistency with your pet's established routine and household rules. When caring for pets in your home, I take detailed notes about their daily schedule, feeding times, favorite spots, and any house rules—whether that means staying off certain furniture or having free rein of the couch. Your pet's comfort stems from familiarity, so I ensure that nothing changes from their normal routine. I provide the same level of attentive care - regular exercise, plenty of affection, and constant supervision. I also maintain open communication throughout, sending updates and photos so you can see how well your pet is settling in and enjoying their time with me.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
