About: I have ten years of pet sitting experience, a year of Kennel Tech experience, and have had pets of my own practically since birth. What can I say? I love animals! I have experience with puppies/kittens, elderly pets, and special needs animals, including diabetic and hearing/sight impaired animals. I am focused and pay attention to detail to ensure that your pet is taken care of the way they would if you were home. I work in office from 9am to 2pm, and am working from home the rest of the day, so I can be with your pet nearly 24/7 and ensure their full needs are met. Your pet will be cared for exactly the way you would if you were home! Instructions are meticulously followed and lots of love is given to ensure your fur baby is as comfortable and safe as possible.
“My two little fur babies, Krispy & Nez love Hannah very very much, she’s a A++ dog sitter! She gives the most cutest updates too! I will continue to always book with her when she’s available and you should to! ❤️🐾”


“Megan is fantastic! She was so sweet and loving with my pup and gave him a long, vigorous walk that left him happy and exhausted. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about animals, Megan is the one!”

“Demetria had great communication and kept us informed about everything that happened along the walk. We had a little injury and she gave some good advice on how to keep the wound clean. We are so grateful for her help! I know our dog was always super happy to see her for walks.”

About: *Back on Rover after taking a little break* We have two dogs of our own, so our home is full of toys, cozy beds, and a laid-back vibe. We both work from home and love having extra pups to cuddle and care for! Our dogs—Lu (an 11-year-old Aussie/Lab mix) and Austen (a 3-year-old pit mix)—are relaxed, social, and non-aggressive. That said, if your dog isn’t dog-friendly, no worries, we’re happy to keep them separate. I have a dedicated training room, and the dogs are given shifts throughout the day for outdoor time, play, and rest. Everyone gets space to decompress without stress, while my dogs enjoy their naps. I’ve been a professional dog trainer for over 5 years and have worked with dogs my whole life. I’m confident handling all breeds and sizes, and your pup’s safety and well-being are always my top priority. Feel free to reach out with any questions or special requests, I’m happy to help! I work from home full-time, so I’m home and available most of the day! Dogs in my care get a balanced routine with plenty of playtime, outdoor breaks, and rest time throughout the day. I always keep an eye on the weather and adjust outside time based on safe temperatures, so everyone stays happy, healthy, and comfortable. Your pup will never feel rushed or ignored, they’re part of the daily rhythm here! Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, I treat them like family. In client homes, I’m respectful, communicative, and always leave things just how I found them (plus one happy dog!). I love going on long walks or just hanging out with a pup who needs a potty break and some cuddles. At my house, things are really set up for daycare and boarding. The guest room is a cozy little doggy space - air-conditioned, comfy, and honestly kind of like a mini hotel. Dogs get a great mix of playtime, outside time, and rest, always with safety and comfort in mind.
About: •Bilingual[English and Spanish]• I'm a former employee of Petsmart's Pets Hotel: 1 year as Night Care Pet Specialist and Day Care and over 5 years here with Rover. Currently living in a comfortable house. I start my routine as early as 5:30am. I make sure to take walks for myself and would love a partner in crime. I will send pictures of your furr kids, so you can see them. As a mom, I can relate to wanting to know your babies are safe. We have a big comfortable house with a fenced yard. Pets are welcome on furniture to snuggle!

About: Hi! My name is Victoria, and caring for animals has always been something I’m deeply passionate about. I have over 5 years of hands-on experience working with both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I also have professional experience working at a doggy daycare, where I learned how to safely handle multiple dogs, understand animal behavior, maintain clean environments, and provide attentive care in fast-paced settings. In addition to daycare experience, I’ve fostered kittens and cared for animals with a variety of needs, including administering medications through pills, liquids, and injections. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, meal prep, litter box cleaning, accident clean-up, dog walking, enrichment activities, and trips to dog parks. I understand that every pet has their own personality, comfort level, and routine, and I always do my best to make them feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and needs patience, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. I know pets are family, so I’ll care for yours with the same love, attention, and respect I would want for my own. I also love keeping owners updated with messages and photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work part-time only 3 days a week and have a very flexible schedule outside of that, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. Because I don’t have many outside commitments, I’m able to be reliable, attentive, and flexible with visits, walks, feedings, playtime, medication schedules, and check-ins. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make it a priority in my routine rather than just treating it like a job. I’m able to provide pets with lots of attention, companionship, and consistency throughout the day, and I always make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my main priority is to keep their routine as consistent, comfortable, and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk times, litter box cleaning, medication needs, and any special care routines each pet requires. For cats, I make sure their environment stays clean and calm by scooping litter boxes regularly, refreshing food and water, and giving them attention based on their personality—whether that means interactive play, gentle companionship, or simply respecting their space. I also monitor their behavior and wellbeing to make sure they’re eating, using the litter box normally, and staying comfortable while their owners are away. For dogs, I focus on maintaining their routine through regular walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and enrichment activities. I also make sure they are safe on walks, properly exercised based on their energy level, and given plenty of attention and affection. In every visit, I treat the home with respect, keep everything clean and organized, and provide updates with messages and photos so owners feel reassured. My goal is always to make pets feel secure in their own environment while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pets are being cared for with attention, patience, and love.
About: I have extensive hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I previously bred German Shepherds and raised and managed a pack of 10 of my own dogs, which gave me a deep understanding of canine behavior, pack dynamics, and safely handling multiple dogs at once. Through my work with the American Kennel Club, I earned the distinction of Breeder of Merit, reflecting my commitment to responsible breeding, health standards, and proper care. I’m also an active member of the German Shepherd Dog Club of America and participate in the Schutzhund club community, which keeps me actively involved in training, temperament evaluation, and working-dog development. Because of this background, I’m comfortable working with energetic puppies that need structure and training, as well as senior dogs that need patience and attentive care. I’m experienced reading dog body language, preventing conflicts between dogs, and maintaining a calm, safe environment. Dogs tend to warm up to me quickly, and I genuinely enjoy working with them. I also love helping rescue dogs feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m home full-time, which allows me to give dogs consistent supervision and attention throughout the day. Because of this, pets in my care are rarely left alone and get frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and interaction. My schedule is extremely flexible, so I’m able to accommodate different routines, including puppies that need more frequent outings and senior dogs that benefit from a calm environment and regular care. I’m also able to work with last-minute bookings and different drop-off or pick-up times when needed. I provide a safe, structured environment with a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, exercise, and play. With my background raising and managing multiple dogs, I’m very experienced reading dog body language and carefully managing group dynamics. All new dogs are introduced slowly to make sure everyone is comfortable. I also require meet-and-greets beforehand so I can ensure a good fit and a safe environment for every dog in my care. Dogs are separated during feeding to prevent resource guarding, and I have crates available for dogs that are crate-trained or need their own quiet space to rest. Because I’m home full-time, dogs receive consistent supervision, attention, and care throughout the day.

I’m dependable, patient, and attentive, so making time for walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, and companionship is something I take seriously. I understand that pets do best when they stay on their normal schedule, so I do my best to follow each owner’s instructions closely. Whether it’s a daily walk, drop-in visit, or caring for a pet while their owner is away, I make sure they get the attention, care, and comfort they need. In a client’s home, I care for pets by keeping things as close to their normal routine as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medication if needed, and any special preferences your pet may have. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

About: Hi, I’m Jovan! Animals have always been a big part of my life — I’ve had dogs for over 14 years and can’t imagine life without them. Over the years, I’ve also cared for pets belonging to friends and family, including dogs, cats, and even reptiles. Whether furry, scaly, or somewhere in between, I enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’ve provided pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits for a wide variety of pets. From energetic dogs who need long walks to shy cats that need gentle patience, I tailor my care to what each animal needs. I’m also comfortable following detailed instructions for feeding schedules, medications, or special routines — reliability and consistency are always my priority. My background in healthcare and hospitality has made me dependable, observant, and attentive to detail. Those skills carry over to pet care — whether it’s keeping pets safe on walks, ensuring they’re fed on time, or simply giving them love and attention while you’re away. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when someone is caring for your pets. With me, you can trust they’ll be in caring, responsible hands.

“An amazing experience! She took care of my pup and my cats at home! I can’t thank her enough for the amazing service person provided especially on such short notice! Thank you again!”

About: I grew up on a small farm taking care of various animals and I have loved animals ever since. When I got my own home I got my first indoor pets and cherish them as part of the family. I’m a teacher who will be free most of the day starting in June. I prefer walking in the mornings before the sun gets to strong but I am free to do drop ins most of the day. Getting to know the individual personalities and needs of each pet is vital to giving proper care. Their unique personalities is what makes pets so fun.

Andrew came in and helped us last minute and I’m so grateful. Great communication and he was able to make the dogs comfortable even though we didn’t have time for a previous meet and greet. He sent pics and details and was respectful of our home. I’m so glad we booked him and would book again!
