“Lisa is great with my 3 month old puppy. She makes sure to keep him active and burning some energy on her drop in visits. She is also great at sending updates and cute pictures of him. Will keep booking her when available.”
“Carole took wonderful care of our cat Marshmallow! She included detailed updates and amazing photos everyday. She was very respectful of our space and Marshmallow’s routine. I would definitely recommend booking with Carole!”
“Natsha was so kind and took wonderful care of my cat! It was my first time using Rover for catsitting, but Natsha made it a very comfortable experience for my cat and gave me lots of peace of mind! She spent a lot of time with him everyday that I was gone and I’m very happy with her petsitting!”
“Jen is fantastic. She is very professional and dotes on Tako like we would. I know Tako is in loving hands and with a human who just gets cats, which is so important. Jen takes lots of photos & videos and keeps me posted on how he’s doing. Her communication is extremely fast and punctual. I’m looking forward to working with Jen in the future.”
“Jessica was very accommodating with my relatively short notice trip. One of my cats can be very shy but he felt comfortable enough to come for most of her visits. Everything looked great when I returned home. I would definitely use Jessica again!”
“Jessica made me feel so comfortable leaving my 2 cats home while we were away. I got pictures for every visit and she really allowed me to enjoy my trip without stressing!!”
“Carrie was absolutely amazing with Cooper. She responded very quickly to my booking request and was able to navigate my instructions to get inside. Her updates from her drop in visits were absolutely perfect! I really appreciated the updates and the multiple pictures. Her compassion can be felt through her words and her actions. Will absolutely rebook!”

“Olivia has been absolutely wonderful with my dog - and so, so communicative. My dog loved her right away! I couldn't be happier - I've already rebooked her twice.”
About: I grew up in a home where I cared for 7 Siberian Huskies, adults and puppies alike. I assisted with their daily care (walks/feedings/playtime), vet visits (routine/emergencies/managing chronic conditions), and even breeding and whelping (pregnancy/labor/delivery/postpartum care). I joke that I was raised by wolves. As an adult, I’ve walked dogs of all sizes, provided short- to mid-term care for various breeds, and been the primary caregiver for our 9 year-old Pitbull, Phife Dawg. Through this, I’ve learned to read breed-specific signs, and care for dogs of all sizes and characters in a broad ranges of environments. While I am new to this app and caring for dogs beyond my immediate community, I look forward to working with you to learn your dog’s specific needs and preferences, and provide them with professional, loving care. To book with $20 off your first visit, use my promo link! https://www.rover.com/sit/nicoo50001 I work from home, so am available for both scheduled and last-minute walks. Here is my availability for drop-in visits and walks through June: Mondays: 9am - 12:15pm Thursdays: 9am - 12:15pm Fridays: 9am - 12:15pm July - August: Mondays: 9am - 4:45pm Thursdays: 9am - 4:45pm Fridays: 9am - 4:45pm September Onwards: Daily, 9:30am - 2:30pm I do not care for other dogs in my home since my senior dog has mobility issues and can be territorial. I am not yet caring for dogs in their own homes since I care full-time for our toddler, however, that’s a service I look forward to providing in the future!
“Mengdongxue gave my cat her wet food, provided attention with scratches and pets, and cleaned her litter box while I was away. Mengdongxue sent daily photos of my cat excited for M’s arrival and enjoying her scritches and belly rubs in all her cuteness, which really put my mind at ease. Mengdongxue will win your pets love as she really cares about animals, is enthusiastic, helpful and communicative. I would highly recommend hiring her to watch your pet!”
“Diana was great. We did a virtual meet and greet; but it went well! She showed up and took great care of the dogs and even fed them! Would definitely book again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs my whole life, whether that be my own or friends/family. I have experience taking care of puppies, senior dogs, and unspayed/neutered dogs as I have had these myself throughout my life. In my lifetime I’ve had basset hounds, a Westie, a Boston Terrier, and a couple hamsters. I am happy to look after small caged animals as well for a smaller fee if you message me and let me know! I can also give your dog/s any medications or special treats that they may need/like. I cannot give injectable medicine, however. I currently work part-time and I’m working on my masters degree. I am available for dog walking, boarding, and house sitting! All of my availability is clearly marked on my calendar and updated. I only list days that I can fully commit to the service that I am providing. I would want that for my pets and I believe you would too. I would love to do a meet and greet with you and your dog before the booking. If you are not satisfied with the meet and greet you can cancel my services up until the day before service. I want you and your pet to feel as comfortable and safe with my services as possible. I have no pets of my own currently, so your pet will have the whole space for them. I don’t have the time for a dog of my own at this time in my life, so dog sitting/walking brings me a lot of joy and fulfillment. I will truly treat your dog with love and care. I am newer to using this site for dog sitting and walking but I have lots of personal experience with my own previous dogs and friends/family. I would truly appreciate you and your dog taking a chance on me as I get started here. I have a small unfenced front yard for a quick potty. However, majority of your dogs potty breaks will be walks as my neighborhood has sidewalks on every immediate street. There is also a park a quick 7 minute walk away and a college campus close by as well with plenty of green spaces. If I am at your home I am happy to take your dogs on walks there as well. I will treat your home and pet as my own with great care.

Honey is a very energetic and excitable dog and Faith always gives her the exercise, attention, and love that Honey needs. Whether it comes in the form of throwing the ball, going for a walk, playing tug-a-war, or training with treats, I never have to worry about if Honey will be exercised, happy, or fulfilled after Faith stays/checks-in on her. Honey and I can’t recommend Faith enough for any of your pet needs.”

His attention to detail is seen in his approach in how he is patient and kind with others and animals. Any pet owner would be lucky to have him care for their little fur babies!”
