“Nathan has been walking my dogs twice weekly for a few months, and I’ve been really happy with their service. They’re reliable, always show up on time, and are easy to communicate with. My dogs gets excited every time Nathan comes to walk them, which says a lot. Nathan clearly knows how to handle dogs and seems very comfortable with them. It’s been a huge help having someone I can count on and trust with my pet. I would definitely recommend Nathan if you’re looking for someone dependable and good with dogs.”


“Alainnah has been such a life saver. She’s super reliable and consistent with watching our doggos during the work week. She also went the extra mile when my puppy was a little sick one time. She truly cares about our dogs and is great at communicating everything with us, so we know everything they are doing/getting themselves into. :) I highly recommend Alainnah and am so grateful for all of her help.”


About: I am an animal lover and always have been. I grew up with both dogs and cats and love both equally. My schedule is extremely flexible and I don’t mind commuting to take care of your fur baby! I have a lot of compassion for animals and take extra care to give them both physical and emotional attention. I love being outdoors and will make sure that your pup is getting plenty of exercise. I am currently a student with a flexible schedule during the week. I am available in the mornings, late afternoons, and evenings for any service you may need. Weekends and Holidays available as well. When caring for your pets while you are away I will first and foremost make sure that they feel comfortable with me. I have excellent attention to detail so I will be able to follow any care instructions including special accommodations for your fur baby. I love spending time with animals, they will be getting plenty of attention to distract them from missing you!

About: I've had pets in the home since age 1, and have been helping to take care of them since I could walk. I've always loved animals, and began volunteering at animal shelters, walking, bathing, and feeding shelter dogs beginning at age 5. I have worked in the field of veterinary medicine since 2023, and have a working knowledge of many medical and behavioral issues. I am comfortable caring for cats and dogs of any size, administering medications, walking reactive dogs, and more. I am also trained in canine CPR and first aid, in case of emergencies. I'm currently working from home, with the ability to bring my work on the road, so I have the flexibility to accommodate the needs of each individual fur family! I currently provide services in the client's home only. I will ask for a rundown of of your pet's daily feeding/walking/play schedule, and do my best to make your fur baby feel at ease while under my care with lots of playtime, cuddles and love; and maintaining their usual routine while you're away!

About: I love all animals large and small . Hobby and helping others is what I want to do !!my kids are animal lovers too. We would love and enjoy tking care if others pets and getting to know other animals. I have grown up around animals from a very small age in the country. I would like my kids to have the same experience with animals as I have had and much much more. We are a very active family and love to go for hikes, jogs, swimming sessions and other places to visit and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature. We would love to see any size and shape for animals makes for a challenge to experience every day and relax in the moment to see how others live.

About: Compassionate, communicative, safety focused and respectful of my clients and their buddies of all different shapes and sizes! not to mention we live in such a beautiful part of the world and dogs just make it so much better to share with! I can be the good guy or the stern guy, all depends on the situation and the needs of your babies! I’m a merchandiser for a well known pet food company so well versed in animal nutrition. My dogs dabble in Top Dog events here and there so I’m definitely well versed in the challenges of some breeds and I’ve also been a house/animal sitter (all types of animals large and small) pretty solidly for the last few years with Trusted Housesitters. I have 5⭐️ reviews for all of my sits, repeat sits and more importantly life long friendships with my clients and their animals. Let’s just say that I have a ton of furry nieces and nephews 🤣 I’m taking the plunge with ROVER to keep active, to continue my flexible income goals and to support my stupidly expensive fishing habit. But all jokes aside this is ridiculously serious to me because it’s a nightmare when you can’t take a holiday or travel or focus on work because you don’t have the trust or faith that your pets will be cared for at the same level as you do. A few years of Veterinary Tech and Grooming work gives me a fairly mature and solid base of animal husbandry practices and procedures that is always an asset as well as SO MUCH LOVE and APPRECIATION that we get to be loved back by all the critters! Pet care encompasses every waking hour because I’m a dog mom of three! In saying that I can’t afford the perfect life of hanging out with my dogs 24/7 although I keep trying! I’m super flexible with my job. No set hours so whatever suits your pets needs/schedule works for me! Socializing, insane nature walks, or sitting at a picnic table or bench just taking it all in and reflecting, because you 💯 know that our pets are the masters of reflection and taking it all in❤️Flexibility and open mindedness makes everyone’s life better. I don’t offer my home for boarding but we do live on 10 acres of property that is full of madrone trees, creeks, challenging terrain or relaxing flat logging roads for an epic leg stretch! Every animal is different and has their own individual needs and wants so once we assess those we can create a program that will be pure stoke for your pet! I’m an outdoorsy chick who is always scouting for fish so my walks are generally planned around a watershed for the most part. One thing that I can promise you is that there’s a good chance your pet will be pretty pumped to see me again🫶 Your home=your rules🤙

About: Greeting, My name is Helen. I’ve recently completed my contract in the military. During my time in the service I spent time caring for my colleagues dogs (I do love cats, but I’m allergic) and found myself actually branching out to others when they needed someone to watch their babies. I grew up always having a dog in our family, and know how important they are as family members. Their unconditional love is something I’ve always cherished, and it would be my joy and honor to care for your fur babies whenever. My schedule is flexible, and I am available often. It’s really not a hardship spending time with loving pups. I do have experience with pets that have special needs. I look forward to hearing from you and your fur members.

About: I have been an animal lover since I was born! I grew up on a farm that included all farm animals; mainly horses, dogs, and cats. I’ve had many years of experience with training, and proper pet care! I currently work from home and I have plenty of time throughout the day for pet sitting! I’m available 24/7 I enjoy walks, and nature so I spend a lot of time outside. I have a large fenced yard, fit for animals. We have a loving friendly 7 year old hound dog named Copper. We live in a safe quiet neighborhood close to trails and parks.

About: Hello my name is Brenden, I have have been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I am open to caring for any breed of any description and any instructions accompanied with I will be sure to follow with the utmost care. Many friends, family members and neighbors have trusted me with caring for all kinds of breeds from chihuahuas and kittens to Great Danes and Saint Bernards. My schedule is quite flexible as well, I wouldn’t mind doing any chores you may need help with and I am glad to take care of your furry friend as if they were my own. Please contact me with any questions or concerns, I would be happy to answer them. Thank you for your consideration. I currently have a very flexible schedule, though I am unable to board your pet I am more than willing to stay with them while you’re away, go on daily walks, play, and meet any additional needs that your pet may have. I am always very careful in terms of safety and security of the home and during walks, I always maintain an open line of communication for any questions, updates or concerns you may have.


About: I volunteered with Northeastern SPCA, North Carolina in 2012 to 2014. I volunteered with Placer SPCA, Roseville, California. I provided dogs with walks. I assisted dogs and cats with classical conditioning and lure/reward training. I assisted dogs with positive reinforcement, desensitization, and counter conditioning. I apply positive reinforcement and maintain a clean a sanitary environment. I will provide the best care for your little one or your big one, but we all know they’re all little. You’re dog, cat, or whatever your companion may be they deserve the best care and all the love. I am prepared to give that to them. I love and care for animals. I plan to become a vet technician and a pet groomer for my career. I provide a good atmosphere and environment. I am creative and outgoing. I’ve been on Rover a little over one year now, and I absolutely love the people and their fur babies. I’ve been around many different animals my whole life. I am looking forward to meeting you and the your best friend(s) on four paws.

About: I have been caring for my own pets for seven years, as well as helping others with their pets. I have three very well behaved dogs of my own! I really enjoy going for walks so bringing a new friend would be awesome! I am a full time student at UCC, and work part time at planet fitness on the weekends. I am almost always available in the evening. I provide my pets with the food and water they need, bathe and groom them regularly, go on walks and to the dog park and they are maintained with their vaccinations. I love animals very much so I also give them lots of love!

About: I have decades of pet care experience with visits, overnight care, nearly two decades of employed veterinary experience as well as tons of experience with my own pets of course. 😉 I currently have two very silly Australian Shepherds who compete in a variety of events and have earned many titles - many others in the past with even more . I'm well versed in medication administration in cats and dogs (pills, liquids, injectables) as well as wound care and rehabilitation. I have extensive experience and knowledge in nutrition, behavior and reproductive services. I may be available for flight nannying as well depending on days/times. I have extensive puppy development/training as well as senior care experience. Basically, if you need help with something pet related, I can probably help you! Just ask! 💜💚 Currently my time is divided between kiddo and pet activities so I am able to add in caring for other pets as needed. Please let me know what your needs are as I may be able to switch something around to accommodate your pet! 💜 Currently I am not doing care within my own home but I am cautious about disease transmission (ask me about my show protocols!) and safety is above and beyond my concern. For walks outside, dogs are exclusively leashed on no slip collars/leashes to prevent escapees and are setup prior to heading out the door. If transportation is needed, I exclusively utilize crash tested safety harnesses or crash tested kennels. Dogs or cats are never loose with transportation.
