About: I’m an experienced pet owner with three cats of my own (one being a foster pet). I would love a dog myself, but due to having multiple felines and a busy schedule, it is not the right time. However, I love taking walks and hikes and am overall very active. I would love to take along a buddy or two, especially if it helps someone out! I’m also open to drop in checks, or if there is enough notice I can flex my schedule to make sure your pup has whatever he or she needs to feel safe and comfortable while you’re away! I understand how scary it can be to leave the well-being of your pet with someone else and I will do everything I can to put your mind at ease while away from your companion. I work a remote/hybrid job Monday-Friday 8:30am-4:30pm. If someone is close I can pop in during the day to let the dog out or take it for a quick walk. And then I’m fully available most weekends and evenings. I would need some instructions from the owner on exactly what they need me to do, and I would appreciate strong communication. I know how it feels to leave your pets in the care of someone else and if I can ease any anxiety that would be great

About: I've had pets since I was 5 and absolutely adore all types of dogs. I currently have two dogs: Wally, a 15-year-old Shih-Tzu Poodle mix, and Benny, a 4-year-old Goldendoodle. Their age difference has made me flexible and attentive to dogs of all ages. I make sure to walk them or let them run in an open field every day, weather permitting. I love spending time outside with dogs because, just like us, they need their exercise too. When Benny was a puppy, I played a big role in his training which included crate training, basic commands, and potty training. Wally, our senior dog, has slowed down over the past year, so I', very familiar with the extra care, patience, and gentleness that older dogs need. I am caring, dependable, and trustworthy and treat every dog as if its my own. You can feel confident knowing your dog would be safe, loved, and well-cared for in my hands. I currently do not have a part-time job so I have a lot of time on my hands. My schedule is very open at the moment and I would love to help anyone out who's looking for a reliable pet sitter! When caring for pets in your home, I want to ensure that they feel safe and cared for while you're away. I know important routines are because my dogs get unsettled when theirs is disrupted. I want to provide that same sense of normalcy for your pets when you're gone. I'll spend time with them during the day, take them for walks, play with them, amd can stay overnight if needed. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will ensure they get the attention and care they deserve.

“Ivi did such a great job watching our pups! She was with them for 2 weeks and sent lots of pictures that they looked very happy and well loved in. She was very responsive any time we reached out and also went above and beyond caring for our home. Thank you Ivi!”

About: Hi, I’m Gianna! I'm a passionate pre-vet student with hands-on experience in emergency vet med and general animal care. I’ve worked in vet clinics and have two amazing rescue pups of my own! Whether it's dogs, cats, or pocket pets, I’m here to provide loving, knowledgeable, and reliable care for your furry friends. 🐾 I work part-time and keep a flexible schedule, so I’m able to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. With about a day’s notice, I’m happy to coordinate walks, feedings, or check-ins. I’m usually available on weekdays and most weekends. Feel free to reach out, I'm always excited to meet new pets and work with your schedule! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! With my experience in both emergency and general veterinary settings, I take every precaution to ensure your pet is safe, happy, and stress-free. I’ll care for them as if they were my own—offering plenty of love, attention, and patience while following the same safety measures used by vet staff. Whether it’s administering medications, monitoring their well-being, or simply making sure they feel comfortable in their own home, you can trust that your pet is in experienced, caring hands.

“Jill was amazing! She was very thorough with ensuring she covered all of Izzy’s routine while she was here. She communicated with me the whole time and gave me updates. I also felt very comfortable having her stay at my home. We will definitely be using Jill again to care for our kitty!!”

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs and cats over the past few years. I’m very good at following care instructions. I’ve taken care of dogs of all shapes and sizes. I have cerebral palsy so Im home the majority of the time giving me the opportunity to genuinely care for your pet. This schedule allows me to be attentive to all your pets needs. I ensure your pet feels safe and loved by providing a clean, secure environment. I follow all care instructions, maintain a pet-friendly space, and offer constant supervision.

About: I was raised around all kinds of animals, and have cared for cats, dogs, snakes, and rabbits. I love them all unconditionally and believe they should be raised to know full bellies, warm cozy nights, and endless love. I have experience working as a groomers assistant and a kennel attendant professionally for about 3 years as well, so I know how to handle special needs ranging from anxiety to aggression. I also understand what it's like to be tight on funds, and the need to budget tightly in order to properly care for your furry friends! If my Rover prices are too high for your budget, shoot me a message and I can help you stay in your range! I'm flexible, especially since all pets are different and require different amounts of work! I work for a pet care company that does grooming and daycare and boarding. My schedule is immensely flexible if I'm given enough advance as my official work schedule is made monthly. I can make it so that I have a lot of time on my hands to love your pets and give them my undivided attention they need! I always do my very best to be as gentle as possible with all pets! I tend to avoid using "alpha" proving tactics unless it is necessary for my or your pets safety (ex. scruffing, using chokers tightly, using the shock option over the buzz option on an electric collar). I see these options as only being necessary when the pet is acceptionally aggressive and may hurt myself, itself, or others. I'm also very cautious around doors as I know many pets would take the opportunity to bolt it into the street if they could. I can handle bruises and scratches well from excited pets! I'm usually always covered in them from my own fur babies.

“Natalie was awesome with our dogs, she made sure to send us updates and even stay a little longer so they weren’t by themselves for too long. Will definitely use her again.”

“May is awesome! She is extremely nice and very caring! She was very responsive to my texts to check on Zsa Zsa and sent pictures which helped to reassure me my old pup was doing ok. Thanks again May!”

About: Hi, I'm Robyn – a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of trusted experience caring for dogs & cats of all breeds, ages, and personalities. I've grown up with a variety of animals my entire life (cats, dogs, guinea pigs, turtles, mice). For the past decade, I've been the go to pet sitter and dog walker for family and friends. Whether it’s high energy pups or senior cats who just want some company, I treat every pet like my own with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs. Before I was old enough to work, I spent time volunteering at a local animal shelter during my teen years. It gave me early hands on experience caring for animals with all kinds of personalities and needs, and helped shape my lifelong love and respect for animals. Right now, I share my home with a 4 year old beagle named Scout who I’ve raised since he was a puppy. Whether you're looking for reliable walks, drop ins, or overnight care, you can count on me to keep your pet safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I send regular updates and photos, and I always follow your care instructions to the letter. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! As a stay at home mom, I'm home and active throughout the day, which allows me to easily fit pet care into my regular routine. I'm available for walks and visits in the early mornings and evening during the week, and I have full day availability on Sundays and Mondays. I'm used to planning my days around care and routines, so incorporating pet care feels like a natural fit. Whether it's a morning walk to start the day, a dinner time drop in, or extended weekend care, I make sure every pet gets the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. When caring for pets in their own home, I always follow the pet parent's instructions closely to ensure consistency and comfort for their pet. I'm very detail oriented and make sure routines, feeding, medications, and preferences are followed exactly as requested. I also let the pet guide the pace of our interactions whether that means playtime, cuddles, or simply being a calm, reassuring presence. My goal is to make them feel safe, respected, and as relaxed as possible while you're away

About: I've grown up around labs since my grandparents were breeders. All my aunts have had labs (usually more than one at a time), so I've gotten the chance to look after them and give them walks when they were away on vacation. My most recent experience was with my roommate's St Bernard. Optimus is the largest dog I've ever cared for let alone lived with. He's been a ton of work considering his previous owner's unfortunate lack of care. We've dealt with ear infections and bulking up to a healthy weight. Throughout all, patience and determination prevailed and he's our big buddy. I'm currently working three 12-hour shifts each week providing me evenings on work days and full days twice during week and all weekend for caring for cats. I'm unavailable Wednesday evenings and weekend mornings for religious reasons. I have a clean home vacuumed every morning with plenty of windows for looking out of. Scratching posts are in every room with plenty of toys and treats to go around. I love petting cats and giving belly rubs if that's their thing.

“Lynn was great! She took great care of my boys while I was out of town for the weekend. She was very responsive and I would definitely book her again to watch my dogs.”

About: I’ve taken care of and loved dogs for as long as I can remember! My favorite part of the day is seeing their tail wag! I am currently working part time with a very flexible schedule! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I start and end my days by making sure pets are fed, exercised, and given plenty of attention. When at a clients home, I treat the space with respect and make sure to stick to the pets routine. I am willing to provide regular updates and pictures to make the owners feel as comfortable as possible!

“Jamie was amazing! It was our first time getting a sitter so we were definitely very nervous. But she made us feel so comfortable and at ease. Her apartment was clean and spacious. She even sent us pictures and made a video of the dog! I can’t Recomended Jamie enough! Thank you so much.”

“Kennedy was wonderful with Izzy. She is a very elderly dog and needs a little more attention than most and Kennedy took great care of her. I will use Kennedy again when she is available!”
