Jason listens carefully to what I like when it comes to training, as Roarke is in training to be a service dog. He also won Roarke’s affection right away. I would recommend him to anyone.

About: Hi! I am new to Rover! I am 24 and have taken care of dogs my whole life! Growing up, we always had at least 2-4 dogs in our home at all times, all different breeds and sizes. We treat dogs like children in my family :) I work a hybrid job in office Monday-Wednesday so my availability is mainly Thursday-Sunday. Week days I am available to do visits throughout the day and weekends my availability is very open. I am very good at following directions and I can ensure I will keep your pets safe and do anything I can to make this experience as comfortable as possible!

About: We are dog lovers who have loved providing a safe home away from home for our clients since May 2019. Lindsay grew up with a dog from the age of 10 until she moved out of her parents' home and is accustomed to the care, love, and energy needed to make a dog feel at home. For the last decade, she's often been entrusted with the care of family members' and friends' dogs when they've been on vacation. Our home is large, with plenty of room for a larger dog to feel comfortable, 3.5 acres of wooded land for us to go on trail walks, and a safe, friendly neighborhood for street walks. We also have a fenced-in yard, so dogs who don’t do well or enjoy walking on a leash now have a safe, secure option for exercise and play time in our yard! We have a 5-year-old pup of our own who loves playmates, and she looks forward to meeting your fur babies! We are currently home full-time Monday-Friday to be able to give your dogs the full attention they need, whether for drop-ins, walks, boarding while you’re away, or doggy day care while you work or have appointments to tend to. We have a fenced-in yard with room for your dog to run. We have a crate available if needed, as well as a separate in-law suite if your dog needs some separation or quiet time from our energetic pup.

Liz was attentive, caring and punctual. She has a love of dogs and it shows in her interactions. She took the time to walk my dog as well as make sure he was settled in before she left. We would definitely use her again!

About: My life is catered towards animals. I work as a Canine Coach at a local small business where I guide up to 60 dogs to have a fun and safe day each day. With my own animals I love hiking, various dog sports, adventures and training for fun. I have fostered numerous puppies for a local rescue and trained them until they found their forever homes. I rescued my own dog and helped him build his confidence, he was extremely fearful even afraid of me and he has blossomed in my care. I currently work at a doggy care but always time to look after your pets. I usually work in the morning so I check in with your pets when I wake up then a few more times after work. My roommate is always home so your pets are never truly alone when boarding with me. I will follow any and all instructions you provide so don’t hesitate to ask. No request is too big and I will go above and beyond to make sure your pet is perfectly cared for.

About: I’ve cared for dogs for years—both my own and through my professional pet sitting work. I’m comfortable with all kinds of pups, including energetic puppies and sweet senior dogs who may need a slower pace and extra patience. I also have personal experience caring for an injured dog (my own had a CCL tear last summer), so I understand how important it is to be gentle, keep walks controlled, and watch for any limping or discomfort. During visits, I make sure your dog gets a safe walk, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of love—plus photo updates and a detailed visit note so you always know how things went. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits. I’m also available for last-minute requests when needed, including weekends and holidays. Safety is my top priority. I always follow pet parent instructions closely and keep routines consistent. For walks, I use a waist leash/leash belt so your pup is securely attached to me the entire time—this helps keep both your pet and me safe. I’m careful around doors and gates, double-check locks before leaving, and I send updates with notes and photos so you feel at ease while you’re away.

About: I’ve had all types of pets growing up (hamsters, rabbits, dogs, and 1 cat). As an adult, I’ve had 1 dog, 2 guinea pigs, and currently have 1 leopard gecko (caged in my son’s room). I have three small children so caring for a pet full time is not in the cards for our family right now but it hurts my soul to not have any in our home. I thought this would be a great opportunity to get my fill for my love of dogs and cats until we are ready for our own again. I am very active and walk my 10k+ steps a day and would love to have a walking buddy with me. I work full time but from home. My three children are in some form of child care Mon - Fri. *Summer schedule for kids varies* I have two yards. One large yard, great for running around. We also have a smaller yard that was purposely created for dogs to go to the bathroom when the former owner lived here as she was a foster for dogs.

I can’t recommend Kristen enough! From the very first meeting, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. She is always punctual, reliable, and great at communicating—sending updates and photos that give me total peace of mind while I’m away. I’ve noticed such a positive difference in my dog’s mood and behavior since we started working with her, he comes back happy, relaxed, and well-exercised every time. It’s such a relief knowing my dogs are in safe, caring, and capable hands. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and truly passionate about what they do, this is the person to choose. Five stars all the way!

About: I currently have 4 cats and 2 dogs. One of my dogs deals with leash reactivity and I have spent extensive time with trainers to get him to a good place. My other dog is just out of puppy hood and doing wonderfully. I am used to managing a house with a variety of animals and have experience with all sorts of pet temperaments. I have pet sit for friends in the past. 2 of my cats require daily medication and I am familiar with administering pills and shots to cats. My long term goal is to become a professional dog trainer. I am using Rover as an opportunity to work with more dogs and get some additional experience. I work from home, so I have flexibility to take care of your pets as needed. I’ll make sure your dog is walked or your cat is cuddled, whatever you need! I will treat your pets like my own. For dogs I follow a positive reinforcement based training style, so I will be sure to treat your dogs with kindness and respect. With cats, I am well aware how shy some can be. I will take my time getting to know them and give them the attention they need. I know how stressful it can be to find someone trustworthy to take care of your pets. I hope to take some of this stress away from you!

About: I am a local environmental science student with extensive experience in professional pet and house sitting. Having grown up with dogs and cats, I have provided dependable care for repeat clients since the age of 12. I would welcome the opportunity to care for your animals and can provide references upon request. I am a local college student with a flexible schedule, allowing me to commit to various shifts. I am generally available to work during evenings and on weekends. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my availability aligns with your current needs. Caring for my own two dogs led me to discover a passion for working with animals, and I am now seeking opportunities to gain professional experience as I pursue a career in this field. To ensure both you and your pets are comfortable, I typically offer a pre-visit to meet in person. This allows us to discuss your specific care instructions and ensures you are confident in my services as a caretaker.

Above and beyond. While my girl Gemma was ready for her walk, my puppy Nico was very apprehensive it came time. Mike was super patient and understanding, taking extra time to win Nico over. This guy is who you want walking your anxious and nervous puppies! Definitely recommend, booking future walks now :)

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 11 years old, and I’m comfortable with cats and dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. People have called me a “pet whisperer” because I have a calm, patient way of connecting with animals and earning their trust. I’m also physically strong and confident handling large, powerful, and energetic dogs, including dogs who need firm leash control, longer walks, structure, and plenty of activity. Safety, patience, and clear communication are always my priorities. I’m available 7 days a week and have a flexible schedule throughout the day. I can help with morning, afternoon, evening, and late-night care depending on your pet’s needs. Whether you need regular visits, last-minute help, walks, drop-ins, or extended care, I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. I follow each client’s instructions closely and do my best to keep every pet’s routine consistent. I know every animal has their own personality and comfort level, so I take a patient, respectful approach to care. If your pet wants playtime, attention, or companionship, I’m happy to give that. If they are shy, anxious, independent, or simply prefer space, I’m just as comfortable keeping them company from a calm and safe distance. My goal is always to help your pet feel secure, respected, and well cared for.

About: I am reliable and trustworthy! I have worked closely with families for 5 + years, walking their dogs daily and house sitting and caring for their beloved pets while the owners traveled. I am available daily, mornings, afternoons and evenings, I just ask for 24-hr notice so I can plan accordingly! I am happy to walk them for atleast 15-20 minutes so they can stretch their legs and get out some energy! I also am happy to feed them for their routine meals if you are unable to do so. I am comfortable walking your dog if there is a safe space to do so, or playing with them in your fenced in yard, it is what you are comfortable with.

About: I’ve had hands on experience caring for pets for many years and currently help take care of my 15 year old senior dog, Charlie. Being an online college student gives me a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to spend plenty of quality time with the pets I care for. I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs and understand the patience and extra attention they may need, but I also enjoy caring for younger, more energetic dogs. I always treat pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! 🐾💕 I’m an online college student, so my schedule is super flexible. I’m home a lot and love structuring my days around the pets I’m caring for, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just hanging out and giving them attention. Making pets feel comfortable, happy, and cared for is something I really enjoy! 💗 I love caring for pets right in their own homes where they feel safe and comfy. I treat every pet like family, giving them lots of love, attention, and gentle care. Keeping your pet happy and relaxed is my top priority!
