I reached out to Abigail super last minute as I had to take a last minute trip and she didn’t hesitate to help. She walked Nala three days straight, followed all instructions, and kept me updated the whole time. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Nala was in such caring hands while I was away in Florida. I will absolutely book again!!

About: I have been surrounded by all kinds of animals growing up: dogs, cats, bunnies, even reptiles so I absolutely love animals! I have experience with all kinds of dog breeds like pitbulls, english mastiffs, german shepards, and of course the smaller guys! I’ve always trained my own dogs. I have taken care of friends’ and family’s dogs since I was 14, but I have never been without a dog my whole life! I’m currently a college student studying nursing, so I have clinical until 3:00pm on Mondays and class until 12:00pm on Thursdays. Other than that I’m pretty available throughout the week and flexible on weekends, so I have plenty of time to care for your dogs! I currently live in dorms so I don’t offer boarding. But I would love to play with your dog inside/outside of your house for drop-in’s and walks!

About: Growing up in a house full of dogs taught me that pets aren’t just animals—they are family. From energetic golden retrievers to senior rescues, I’ve spent my life learning the nuances of canine behavior and care. This lifelong passion naturally transitioned into years of trusted pet sitting for friends and family, where I’ve managed everything from high-energy playdates to strict medication schedules. I work full time, but work remotely, so you can lean on me for weekend, early morning, lunchtime and late afternoon/evening walks or check ins! Any and all preferences for your fur (or fur-less) babies are my command! Drawing from years of pet sitting for friends and family, I am hyper-vigilant about home security and cleanliness. I ensure all doors are double-checked, alarms are set, and your space remains exactly as you left it (plus a spotless litter box or wiped-down paws)

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for friends and family since I was much younger. I’ve helped take care of small dogs and bigger dogs as well. I work full time but have flexibility to help with your pet before work, during lunch, and after work. My availability on the weekends is much greater. I treat every animal with respect and kindness as if they are my own. Every animal is special and deserves to feel valued! I stand by that

About: I truly treat every pet like they’re my own. I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals including dogs, cats, and more, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m especially attentive to small details — like changes in behavior, appetite, or mood — so I can make sure your pet stays happy and healthy while you’re away. I have experience with energetic dogs who need structured walks and patience, as well as more sensitive or anxious pets who need a calm, gentle approach. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple pets at once and maintaining clean, safe environments (including litter boxes, cages, and feeding areas). What really sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give — I don’t just “watch” pets, I bond with them. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in loving, reliable hands. Pet care is a big part of my everyday routine. I care for multiple animals at home, including dogs and cats, so I’m used to staying on a consistent schedule for feeding, cleaning, and giving each pet attention. I make time daily for walks, playtime, and bonding, and I’m very attentive to their behavior and needs. Caring for animals isn’t something I do occasionally—it’s part of my lifestyle, and I truly enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific preferences. I make sure pets have a clean, safe environment, plenty of attention, and regular potty breaks or exercise depending on their needs. I’m very attentive to behavior and will quickly notice if something seems off. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they feel reassured while they’re away. Whether I’m in my home or theirs, I treat every pet like my own and focus on making them feel safe, loved, and well cared for.

Ella is such an amazing caregiver! She was so unbelievably responsible and thoughtful. She took notes on our pitbul and asked what his likes and dislikes were. She would leave us little check-in notes when she would visit and walk our pup. She will be my go to pup sitter forever! We felt so comfortable and most importantly our pup felt safe and happy with her.

About: Hey there! I am a dog LOVER and owner. I have had at least one dog in my house my entire life. Some of my friends call me the dog whisperer because even the shyest of dogs come up to me on their own. I am reliable and I can tame a 100 pound beast! I can watch your dog at your place or even at mine. I can walk your dog however far or long you need them walked. I can just come hang out with your dog if they even need a companion to hang out with. Let me know if you’d like to book me, I can be available whenever you need me (as long as I am not working!!) I would love to have your dog in my life! Love always! Danielle

About: I’ve been a dog owner for over 25 years. I have experience with different dog breeds, sizes and ages. I also had hamsters for years. I care for friends and other family member’s dogs. I walk, bathe, play, feed, give medication when needed, and even just keep pets company while they are with me. Communication is very important while pets are in my care so I will be in close contact and send pictures. I absolutely love animals and would have 10 of my own if I could! I work part-time so I have availability in my schedule to let dogs out, feed, play and walk. I also have time on weekends to help when needed. I am extremely reliable and responsible. I treat my own pets like they’re my children and will care for your pet in the same way. I will follow all instructions you leave for me and keep in continuous contact with you when they are in my care.

Taylor was fantastic! We needed to reschedule and she was on top of it and super responsive. She sent me pictures and kept me updated on her bowel movements and behavior etc. It was my first time using Rover for a dog walk and she exceeded my expectations! (Esp since my husband I have trust issues with our fur pup 😅) Highly recommend Taylor!

About: I pride myself on being someone that others can trust to care for their pups when they’re away. I have a calm demeanor & positive energy that dogs respond positively too. I have experience with both puppies & senior dogs, and am comfortable administering medications. It’s truly my honor & pleasure to care for doggies and I’m excited to meet yours! With my current work schedule, I can offer early mornings or evening/night visits during the week and anytime during the weekend! I do not offer services on holidays. My dog’s safety is my absolute top priority, and caring for your dog will be no different! I understand the importance of maintaining a secure and comfortable environment for your dog. For drop-ins, I assure you that I will be extremely careful & respectful while in your home. I will respect & follow any preferences or rules that you have in place, to ensure consistency, safety & comfort.

Madison came to walk my dogs for the first time today. She is a professional dog walker and very confident in her work. I was greatly impressed how the dogs took to her and happily all went for a long walk. I am so happy to have found her and can rest easy knowing they are in capable hands, when needed.

About: I’ve had many cats and dogs ever since I was a child. My mom is a volunteer at a local shelter and we have fostered several dogs in the past as well. I have helped care for our own pets and the fosters over the years and I love it! I currently have a flexible schedule and am available for drop-ins or walks any day of the week. Times are also flexible for walks and drop-ins. I care for pets by listening to the pet owner’s directions in what they would like me to do and how they would like me to care for their pet. I am very friendly and affectionate but can also be stern when need be. I am able to walk, feed and clean litter boxes.
