About: I live with my girlfriend who boards animals and I love how natural she is at this! It’s lead me to want to start caring for animals too! I'm a genuine animal lover with a real passion for dogs and cats. I understand what it means to care for my furry friends like family, and I treat every animal that I care for with grace and kindness. Your furry baby will get daily walks, plenty of attention, and a safe, comfortable space to be themselves. Honestly, watching a dog's face light up when their owner returns? That's what it's all about for me. I am a freelance writer and have plenty of free time on my hand to care for up animals. Meaning I’m available Monday to Sunday! I have a home where my partner watches pets most of the time. We have a backyard and a cozy living space but I would most likely want to stay at your home where your animal can feel comfortable and safe.
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I actually begged my parents to let me get a dog, promising them that I would be responsible and take great care of him—and I’ve kept that promise ever since! Taking care of my own dog has taught me how much patience, attention, and love pets need every day. I’ve taught my dog eight different tricks, and I love spending time training, playing, and going on walks with him. Whenever I’m at my grandma’s, I always make sure to walk and spend time with her dog too. More recently, I’ve started dog-sitting for friends, which has given me even more experience caring for dogs with different personalities and needs. I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’m a freelance dancer, so I have a flexible schedule and make my own hours. This allows me to make time in my day to give pets the attention and care they need. I’m available for walks, playtime, feeding, and keeping your pet company, and I’m happy to work around their normal routine. I understand that every pet has different needs, so I’m flexible and willing to adjust my schedule to make sure your pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I treat every pet like they are my own and make sure they are always in a safe, comfortable, and supervised environment. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any special routines or rules. I make sure doors and gates are secure, keep pets away from anything unsafe, and always pay attention to their behavior and needs. I want every pet to feel comfortable, loved, and at home while their owner is away. I’ll also keep owners updated so they can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.

About: For the last two years I worked as a professional pet sitter in New Orleans, but it doesn’t stop there! I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life! Growing up my family had many dogs around, right now we have two in house and a total of 6 outside of the house belonging to my brothers and sisters! I’ve also taken care of plenty of cats in my life! I’m a big animal lover, I’ve been pet sitting for my moms friends since I was 15 years old, I walk, bathe, feed and play with every pet I watch! I make sure that the animals feel safe with me, that’s what I care about the most! I’m a big lover to all animals and I want them to know that they are loved! I’m a full time actress but I provided care 24/7! Most of my days are at home or auditioning or filming auditions so if you text me asking me to come stop by, I’m more than happy to drop everything to take care of your furry ones! If I’m at your house, I respect your home like I’d want someone to respect mine. I’ll stay only where you ask me to stay and do only what I’m allowed to do! But I won’t make it uncomfortable for the pets, I know they can sense this stuff! If you leave a list of how you take care of your pet for me to follow, I’ll make sure to follow it step by step!
“Brandon and his husband were absolutely amazing! I had to leave unexpectedly out of state and they were so sweet and to take care of my pup/cat on short notice. On top of that Brandon would always send me updates and even took care of them when I was delayed in making it home. Simply the best! 10/10 highly recommend!”
About: I have fostered a 4 month old poodle for 2 months. I’d say I personally have more experience babysitting than pet sitting but that being said, I have a huge heart for nurturing and caring I am currently working a part time job but my schedule is pretty flexible so I have a lot of time on my hands! My daily/weekly routine just consists of working and hanging out with friends! Unfortunately I can not host pet sitting at my home for my land owner doesn’t allow pets inside, but if I were to work at your home, I would act accordingly with respect!
About: I love dogs and have a lot of experience with all kinds of dogs. I have walked with friends registered on rover and a few rover walks myself. I have pet sat for friends. I work remotely so I am very flexible. Mornings and afternoon work best for me. Happy to work at times that works best for you and your dogs! I like to make sure the pets have all of they need and are happy:) I would say I follow instructions well and like to stay organized.
About: I've had a dog almost my entire life, so I've always been taking care of my own and neighbors/friends dogs. I've also been fostering for a few years now. After rescuing my most recent dog I did a little deep dive into dog psychology and training and can help you continue the training you do in your home in my home as well. Being a dog owner myself, I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone else, but please rest assured, I will do everything I can to help your dog feel at home and you feel at peace! I work from home full time, so my own dog and I go out for walks three times a day, and frequent the park for a longer walk/general exposure/scents. So I can be pretty flexible with your dog's schedule. I have a fenced in back yard. I can accommodate to what your dogs needs are, if that's crating, leash training, etc. I'll do my best to make ensure that your dog is comfortable.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Edgewater
Zoe went above and beyond caring for both our 90-pound adult dog and our high-energy puppy! I’ve always been the type of person who is extremely nervous about leaving my dogs in someone else’s care, to the point that I’ve never hired a dog walker or pet sitter before. However, after getting our puppy and having a prior commitment that meant we’d be away from home for an extended period, we decided to take the leap and reach out to Zoe. We couldn’t be happier that we did! Zoe didn’t just meet our expectations; she completely exceeded them. She even arrived a little early to make sure she had all the information she needed for a successful visit. Throughout the entire time, she kept us updated and maintained great communication, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we returned home, both dogs were happy, well cared for, and properly exercised. As someone who is very particular about who I trust with my dogs, I cannot recommend Zoe enough! I would absolutely rebook with her in a heartbeat, and we’ve already started discussing our future dog-walking needs with her. Thank you so much, Zoe! We’re so grateful to have found you! ❤️
Neil did a wonderful job with my two Yorkies , Jasper and Jasmine. Prior to officially caring for my dogs he asked me very important questions regarding their habits and their personalities. He also met with me twice to meet them in person and took them on a “trial” walk to further get to know them. He followed all of my instructions and asked for clarity where warranted; which I more than appreciated. His status updates pre and post each visit were thorough. I also loved the pictures of them on their walks and when he would play catch with them. My dogs bonded with Neil as he treated my two babies like they were his. I will definitely be using Neil’s dog walking services again and have already recommended him to my bestie.
Vanessa has watched Frankie, our 3-month old mini-Aussie with boatloads of energy, twice now, and both times have been absolutely amazing. Frankie loves getting to play and run around with Vanessa, and has even learned new tricks! We really appreciate Vanessa's time and patience and would recommend her to anyone in need of a caring petsitter!
Melissa was amazing and we will definitely book her again. She was so sweet with our new pup Stella and really helped us out in a pinch when our previous dog walker couldn’t make it. She sent great photos and detailed recaps of their walks and play time every day. Communication was quick and easy. She even sent pics and interacted with our cat whom she was not looking in on. Thank you so much Melissa!!
This is very long overdue but we absolutely LOVE Andrea for Fig! She’s been doing drop in visits for us since Fig was around 12 weeks old, and she still gets excited every time Andrea comes by. We highly recommend her all our rules are followed, we get photos every time, and she’s a great communicator!!
This was my 1st time using Rover. Melodies had a meeting & greet with me to get to know my fur babies. She walked them and sent pics. They were very happy and Melodie is sooo sweet, patient kind & easy to work with. I will definitely use her again. I felt so comfortable while away due to all of her updates and pics. She made my time away from my babies so easy and I didn't worry once. I will definitely book with her again. Thanks Melodie :)
Our 4 year old Samoyed took to Laura right away! She is very punctual, professional, and communicative. We had peace of mind knowing our pup was in her care and she was very attentive to our pup’s needs including her routine, keeping her cool and hydrated during a heat wave, and prioritizing her safety in the yard. We will definitely book Laura again!
