About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over five years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I was the proud owner of a Great Dane for three years who reached her senior years in my care. At nearly 145 lbs and living with severe arthritis and mobility challenges, she taught me the patience, attentiveness, and extra care that senior and giant-breed dogs can require. I’m very comfortable with large dogs and understand when they need a slower pace, extra assistance, and plenty of patience. I currently have a happy, energetic 2-year-old Golden Retriever, so I’m equally comfortable with younger, high-energy dogs who love walks and playtime! I’m also a devoted cat mom to my 3-year-old rescue cat, whom I adopted at just 12 weeks old. Every pet has their own personality and needs, and I know how much trust it takes to leave them in someone else’s care. I’ll always treat your furry family members with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Hi! I’m Claudia, a lifelong animal lover and proud pet mom. I work from home full-time as a Project Manager, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with your pets throughout the day. I’m also an early riser and typically start my mornings with a workout class, so early morning walks and visits are no problem! My flexible routine allows me to provide dependable, attentive care while working around your pet’s normal schedule. Your pet’s safety and well-being will always be my top priority. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a beloved family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, respect any special instructions, and provide plenty of love, attention, and exercise while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: Let our home be their home away from home!!! Dog lover since my 1st puppy at 3yo and now passing that down to my 2 boys that love to help me care for our dogs and the ones that come to stay with us. I pet sat for neighbors, family, and friends growing up and still do to this day. My 1st real job was taking care of the animals being boarded at a vet clinic when I was 14yo. I joke and say my first job was a professional pooper scooper. Here I would feed and medicate dogs as needed. Other aspects of the job included dog walking, cleaning kennels and runs, loving on them and playing. I have fostered for extended periods of time for people to help with different circumstances until they could take their dogs back. This helped to save these dogs from having to be rehomed. I will help keep pets with good families in any way that I can. I have also had experience in dogs with special needs. I cared for my own dog, Bubba, with Megaesophagus from 8wks old until he passed at 8yo due to complications of his illness. His care included preparing his food in a blender and special feeding accomodations in a Bailey's chair daily, numerous medications, nebulizer treatments, injections, and standing upright after drinking and special maneuvers to help keep his lungs clear whenever he would aspirate. Adjusted many aspects of my life and my dog's for him to thrive and live as long as he did. My current fur babies are Chaos (Lab /Mastiff), Mayhem (Bully/Pit) and Pippa (Beagle/Bassett). I love all dogs as if they were my own. I have cared for and owned dogs of various breeds and sizes. I rescued a highly anxious and fearful dog when she was 2yo so I have experience with patience and building trust. Walking, feeding, play, medication administration can all be done. Let me know any special thing that your dog needs and I will take care of it as long as I'm able and if I'm not I will be straight forward with you. I will strive to send you at least 1 update and picture daily while in my care unless you would like more. I work from home so I'm always available days, nights and weekends if your pup is staying at my home. My schedule is very flexible. Willing to do walks no matter what the weather may be. If you need me to come to your house I am available throughout the day. I can be available with notice and if you don't mind my one son tagging along with me if you need help outside my home in the evenings. I too have experience with many other animals as pets (we referred to my house as "The Zoo" growing up) or sitting for family and friends when on vacation. I have experience with cats, mice, rats, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, small lizards, frogs, turtles, snakes, and birds. Sorry I will not help with your pet tarantula. Our home has a 6ft fenced backyard with locks always on the gates. Also a good size neighborhood to take your pooch on walks. My 2 young boys also love to help with caring for our own pups with my help, don't worry they won't be the ones walking your dog. If I am coming into your home I will respect your property and privacy. Your house your rules! I have experience with giving medications, shots, and nebulizer treatments as well as wound care for dogs. Any special considerations/needs for your furry family member I am happy to follow.

About: As a nurse, caring for others is at the heart of what I do, and I bring that same level of attention, patience, and responsibility to every pet in my care. I work only 2–4 days a week, and there is always an attentive family member at home, so your dog will receive plenty of supervision, companionship, and affection throughout the day. I grew up in a family that always had pets, including dogs and other animals, so caring for animals has been a lifelong passion. Those experiences taught me how to understand different pet personalities, needs, and routines from an early age. My family has a 7-year-old Cavapoo named Bentley, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I live in a dog-friendly neighborhood with plenty of walking paths and open green spaces nearby, giving dogs lots of opportunities for exercise, exploration, and fresh air. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or a calm, relaxed environment, I tailor their care to their individual needs. My healthcare background has taught me to be observant, dependable, and detail-oriented, which is especially valuable when caring for senior dogs, following special routines, administering medications, or recognizing changes in behavior. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind while ensuring their dogs feel happy, safe, and loved during their stay. 🐾❤️ Caring for fur babies naturally fits into my daily routine. As a nurse, I am flexible with plenty of time to dedicate to the pets in my care. On the days I am home, dogs receive regular walks, playtime, attention, potty breaks, cleaning cages, and companionship throughout the day. Pets are never left alone for long periods and continue to receive supervision, care, and interaction. My dog, Bentley is family, so daily walks, feeding schedules, exercise, and cuddle time are already built into my routine. I live in a walkable, dog-friendly neighborhood with nearby green spaces, making it easy to provide multiple walks and opportunities for exercise each day. I enjoy maintaining a consistent routine that helps pets feel comfortable, secure, and at home while their owners are away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or a calm, relaxed environment, I tailor their care to their individual needs. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where every dog is treated like family. Whether in my home or a client's home, I follow their regular routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care needs. I tailor my approach to each dog's temperament whether they are energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or prefer a calm and relaxed environment.
“Ryan was amazing and went above and beyond to help my pets feel comforted and taken care of. I was impressed with how well my dogs warmed up to him. He provided many updates which helped put me at ease while I was away. I totally would recommend and book Ryan again when needed.”

- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Edgewood choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
