About: I currently work in an animal hospital, where I care for dogs and cats every day and have gained hands-on experience handling pets with different personalities, ages, and medical needs. My hospital also offered boarding services, so I have experience supervising pets, feeding them, administering medications when needed, cleaning kennels, and making sure they are comfortable and safe while away from home. I'm currently a college student who is off for the summer, giving me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I work in an animal hospital and have experience with pet care and boarding, so caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy and feel comfortable doing. I'll make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and love while you're away, and I'll treat them like one of my own. I can provide pet care exclusively in the clients' homes, where pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment. I can follow each owner's instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care requests. My experience working in an animal hospital has taught me to pay close attention to animals' behavior and well-being, so you can trust that your pet will be safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I treat every home with respect and every pet like they're my own.

About: I've taken care of dogs and watched after dogs almost all of my life. From my god mother's Rottweiler, Sisters Black Lab, my best friends Boston terriers a labradodle. Your pup will be in great hands with me. I work from home so I have no issue with being in the house with your dog. My community is very pet friendly with not 1 but 2 dog parks that allows for exercise and fresh air. I work full time from home, and have a very flexible schedule. Usually while watching pets for friends I'll go for a morning walk for bathroom needs, around lunch we'll take another quick walk and game of fetch and one more walk in the evening before the sun goes down. I care for pets depending on what you as the owner recommend. For my dog nephew, we only feed him at 4pm (put food in the bowl) so that in the mornings and nights when we take him out to do his business he's good to go. I like to have a toy or bone around for them to chew on while I work, but once we go out side I make sure we're getting some fresh air for at least 30minutes to an hour.

Mikela was very personable and very communicative when we did our virtual meet and greet. Our kitty is very old and needed some extra care and she was very understanding and helpful about it. We were away with no service except for emergencies/ rare service spots so when we were able to check in she was very fast with responding and giving us updates. We super appreciated her and her attention to detail and how well our little old lady was cared for. We would absolutely book her again. Thank you Mikela!

Chichi has been great. I asked her to fill in for someone else, and ended up setting up a regular drop in. She has been patient with my apartment staff, and gone above and beyond when my puppy Willow has gotten into trouble! Highly recommend 😊

Nasheia is incredibly professional, communicative, and so very caring towards our dog Charlie! Charlie has a few special needs in his diet and behavior around other dogs, and Nasheia has handled everything he’s thrown at her. She drops in to our home for feeding and walks while we’re in office a few days during the week, and Charlie absolutely loves her. Nasheia communicates any issues early on, like scheduling or unexpected things happening during visits. She also politely points out when supplies like treats or food are low. She’s forward thinking and that’s a perfect match for us as planners when it comes to our dog. We’d recommend her to anyone!

About: I’ve cared for many kinds of pets including dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, and reptiles. What sets me apart is the time and care I put into each pet through playtime, enrichment activities, socializing, and meeting their daily needs. I’m patient, attentive, and can even take dogs on the run or teach dogs simple tricks using sign language if requested. I’m currently senior student for Gallaudet university, doing part time so I have free time during weekdays and on weekends. Flexible on holidays as well! I always spend my time wisely by ensuring to provide their activities, playtimes, walks/runs, enrichment activities and accommodation to their physical needs if preferably of course!

Naomi was perfect! I have two cats. One that is really skittish who doesn't like most people and one that loves people. Within a day or two of cat sitting she got the skittish one to warm up to her! She gave me timely updates, spent time with them, and made sure they actually at the food put down for them. For a few days after my trip the cats would look for her and sit by the door waiting! I'll definitely book her again!

Lilla was great for visiting with my two pups! She was flexible and quick to respond when I needed a sitter due to unexpected trip to attend a funeral. She communicated well and provided me pictures of her visits. She even cleaned up after one of my pups when she got sick in the house. I’d recommend her and will use her again. Thank you, Lilla, and sorry about the pup mess!

About: I’ve taken care of several pets since I was young. I had several dogs and cats (sometimes at the same time!). I love walking and playing with dogs, I’ve trained my puppy. I have taken care of big and small dogs. I have also taken care of kittens and adult cats. I have litter trained kittens and played with them often. I currently work full time, but am more than happy to watch your fur baby on my days off! I have days off where I have no plans and would love to spend it with more dogs or with your cat! I have a fenced in yard and two fur babies (dogs) of my own who are friendly and can keep your fur baby company. I am use to watching other people’s fur babies in a 24 hour care setting.

Anh was wonderful! My dog has separation anxiety, and Anh truly went above and beyond to help her feel safe and comfortable. Communication was excellent throughout, and as a first-time Rover user, she made the whole experience easy and stress-free. I felt confident leaving my dog in her care and would absolutely book with her again. I highly recommend Anh.

Ehuniz did an amazing job sitting for my dog Asja! I can pretty much fill out a potential sitter during the Meet and Greet. Ehuniz was very warm and calm which made me quite comfortable (my dog feeds off energy). Ehuniz was very responsive when I made initial contact with here to sit for my dog which was a pretty quick turnaround due to a last minute issues with the person originally scheduled to sit for her. I highly recommend Ehuniz if you are looking for a reliable sitter!

Sam was quick to be my savior for a work trip I had when a different rover who had just graduated highschool was unfamiliar with dogs and breeds and more so separation anxiety. Her quick responses and consistent check in’s had me so at ease. Would highly recommend this polite professional.
