About: I have taking care of animals my whole life I've been wanting to grow older and do something with animals which is why i want this and it will help for future jobs I stay at home while my fiancé works full-time, which allows me to provide attentive, 24/7 care for your pets. Because I’m home throughout the day and night, I’m able to handle all of your pet’s needs right away—whether that’s walks, feedings, playtime, medication, or just companionship. Your pets will never be left alone for long periods and will receive constant supervision, comfort, and care in a calm, loving environment. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for at all times. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in every setting. In my home, pets are supervised, kept in a clean and calm environment, and never left unattended for long periods. I follow all feeding instructions, leash pets securely for walks, and make sure doors and gates are always secured. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow their pet’s usual routine to reduce stress. I double-check locks, keep food and hazards out of reach, and provide regular updates so owners always feel confident and informed. My goal is to create a safe, trusted, and familiar environment wherever your pet is staying.

Grace was punctual. She immediately started working with the dogs and made them feel comfortable as if she had been with them for years. We were pleased with everything that was asked of her. Highly recommended.

About: I’ve pet sit for family friends since I was a teenager. I’ve also owned reptiles for the last few years and currently have a bearded dragon, crested gecko, and whites tree frogs. I went to school for animal care and received my degree in Aquarium & Zoo Sciences, as well as a degree in Psychology. I also took up minors in American Sign Language and Animal-Assisted Health and Education. During my college years I completed two separate 400+ hour internships with over forty different species of domestic and exotic animals. I also completed a 52 hour animal care practicum with a licensed dog trainer. Other required courses included an animal care class, dog training course, and cat training course. In addition to my coursework I was an employee of, and eventually student manager of, my campus aquatics lab. I have now been a zookeeper for going on a year, which has made me comfortable with administering various topical and oral medications. I currently work full time but am happy to spend mornings, lunch breaks, and evenings with your critters! I consistently have two weekdays off, on which I am 100% available for your pet care needs :) I currently rent, so I am unable to care for animals in my home. However, I am happy to stay or stop by wherever you might need! I am a quick study and will readily adapt to any animals schedule or needs :)

We love having Victoria watch Lucy! This time we had her house sit and watch Lucy for 2 weeks. I wasn’t worried at all because I knew Lucy was in good hands. There were no issues and when we returned our house looked great and Lucy was a happy girl. I will be asking Victoria to watch Lucy in the future.

This is our first experience with Vonda. Our longtime dog sitter unexpectedly moved out of town for a new job, and we needed to find a new sitter quickly. We contacted Vonda and she was available to meet with us the same day – and we booked her the next day. Vonda responded to any questions or requests we sent her way during our travels. We are very happy with the excellent care Vonda provided for our fur baby and for our home while we were away... We recommend Vonda and hope to use her services again should the need arise.

About: I’ve have experience with puppies and senior dogs for 10+ years. In addition to dogs, I’ve lived on a farm for 10 years. Animal care is my number one priority. I always have free time in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings to check in and play with your dog. I can also make time to stop by more often if need be. With having my own pets, I understand what it takes to provide proper care on a daily and weekly basis. I will take care of your dog as if it were my own.

About: I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs and I’ve spent years caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities — from energetic puppies to senior cats who just want quiet company. Whether it’s giving meds, sticking to a routine, or just knowing when they need extra love, I bring patience, experience, and a genuine love for animals to every visit. Feel free to message about anything or other animals!! I work part-time and am usually free most days from morning until 5, so I have plenty of time to give pets the attention and care they need. When your pet’s with me, they’re not just being looked after — they’re cared for like family. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or just good company, I’m here to keep tails wagging and your mind at ease. I treat your home with the same respect I give your pet — clean, secure, and just the way you left it.

About: Hi, I provide high-quality, personalized pet care for clients who want dependable, attentive service and a calm, home-based environment for their pets. I share my home with my 18-year-old dog, which has given me extensive experience with senior care, gentle handling, and maintaining consistent routines. I’m especially attuned to pets who benefit from a quieter setting, extra patience, or more individualized attention. I offer in-home dog boarding (dog-friendly only), as well as dog walking and drop-in visits. While I don’t host cats in my home, I provide thorough, reliable care for them in yours. I’m also experienced with small pet care, including litter box maintenance and bird cage cleaning. My approach is intentionally low-volume so each pet receives focused care, close supervision, and a stress-free experience. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and clear communication, with thoughtful updates so you always feel connected while you’re away. This is a great fit for pet parents who value consistency, discretion, and a more tailored level of care. For safety and comfort, I do not handle snakes. I’d be happy to schedule a meet & greet to ensure we’re the right fit. 41, full-time animal fan, part-time treat dispenser 😄 Dogs are my jam, and I’ll pamper cats right in their own homes—no awkward “sharing my couch” drama. Friendly, prompt, and slightly obsessed with pets’ happiness. Your fur babies will get love, snuggles, and maybe a few extra treats (they deserve it). 🐾 I have a fenced yard and live in a quiet neighborhood. I will care for pets in my home or yours. I cannot take cats at my home at this time.

Kim took very good care of our two dogs while we were away. Our boys were happy and that’s what matters most! I very much appreciated her flexibility throughout our booking. Kim is kind and very personable. I feel comfortable leaving our dogs in her care. She also is very tidy which is appreciated! I will definitely be rebooking with her in the future.

About: Hey, my name is Delaney. I am a college student attending Gannon University. I love animals and would have many of my own if was available 24 seven. However, since I am not, I would love to help take care of your pets! I am a full-time student and play a sport. However, I am free every night and my classes are very spread out. So I have lots of time to be at home taking care of everything. We don’t have any pets on the property. And there is a nice yard that is not fenced in, but when the pets are outside, I will be with them. I have a lot of space in the house and there is a park nearby for walks or fetch.

About: I’ve always had animals my entire life of all sorts and prefer their company. Naturally animals are comfortable in my presence. I am basically Snow White. Pet care is a regular part of my routine that I could easily adapt to your requirements. I work a few hour during the week for a few days and have plenty of time to accommodate your needs. I have fenced yard if necessary for run time. But I can make time to visit the home of your pets for their comfort ability.

About: I've had dogs my whole life. I walked dogs in Chicago when I lived there and also pet sat. I would love to meet your dog! I work 8:30-3:30 Monday-Friday, so could be with your dog as soon as 4 pm on weekdays and have a totally open schedule on weekends. I care for pets by checking in with them, providing meals, exercise/walks and enrichment. I can't have pets at my place but will happily come to you!

This was my first time using the Rover app, and I am so happy I found Niku. She took incredible care of both my dog and my home while I was away. Her communication was excellent; she kept us updated with pictures and videos, which really put my mind at ease. She took my dog on long runs, ensuring he got plenty of exercise and attention. I truly appreciate her dedication and care. She was amazing, and I highly recommend her service!
