“So grateful to have found Vanessa on here! Super reliable, very communicative and always takes lots of pics. My schedule is very inconsistent and she always quick to respond and be flexible with what I need.”

About: I grew up with dogs and have been walking/caring for them as soon as I was able to! Since probably around age 15 I started dog walking and cat sitting for neighbors, family and friends. I previously worked at a doggy daycare / boarding facility which I absolutely adored. I have experience working with various breeds, ages, and needs. I’m good with pets with stranger danger, dogs that pull / are anxious around other dogs, senior dogs, puppies, sick pets, clean up, and handling medication. Have basic bathing experience but not grooming. Unfortunately, I’m currently unable to have a pup of my own so I love that I’d be able to get that love on rover! Looking to do drop ins, walks, overnights - not currently boarding but open to discussing. Love hiking and would love to bring your pup too if you’d like. See my cat care details for info on cats. I’m a total crazy cat lady with 3 of my own! I also recently took in a leopard gecko! I’ve been fostering for many years and am good with dog/cat combos. Open to other animal care as well (fish, birds, reptiles, rodents etc.) I’m a graduate student so my schedule is pretty flexible. Looking forward to hearing from you! 😻 I'm a full time graduate student with a decent amount of flexibility. Currently I attend my clinical internship Monday and Wednesday afternoons (~12:30-6:30) as well as Tuesdays (~9-6). I also am in ASL classes thursdays from 6-8 through October. I am open to mornings/evenings and afternoons when free as well as weekends. I do overnights, walks, and drop ins! Currently not boarding as I have 3 cats and a reptile. I have 3 cats of my own and a gecko that I love more than anything. I’ve been fostering for years. I rescued my last cat two years ago after she was badly abused and feral. It took less than a month for her to turn around and now she’s the sweetest baby who is always seeking cuddles. I’m clean, responsible, and flexible and will always give my 100% when caring for your babies! I am a total animal lover, and if your pet loves attention, I’m all for it & if they don’t, I know to respect it. I have bathing experience as well if you’d like me to do baths. If you’d like a more challenging walk for your pup, I’m a big hiker with my own car and would love to bring them along if they have flea/tick prevention. Also good with medication. Not currently boarding but open to having conversations if you have a smaller dog or need cat boarding. Also open to small animal care (reptiles, small rodents, birds, fish etc).
About: Hi I’m Shannon, have a cat right now and used to have an 105lb Golden Retriever so i’m very experienced with big and small animals! I’m home from college and i’m on break so i have a lot of free time to walk dogs at any time of any day. I care for my cat and I used to have a big Golden Retriever who I would go play with and take on many walks.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 12 and have experience with all kinds of personalities and ages, from puppies to senior dogs with medical needs. I currently have a senior dog myself, so I’m very patient, attentive, and comfortable with extra care routines. Friends and family always count on me first for pet sitting because I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like my own. I also have experience caring for cats and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. My schedule is extremely flexible, so I’m able to accommodate all kinds of pet care needs including walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, puppy care, and senior pets who need extra attention. I make sure pets feel comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or a client’s home, they’ll get plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day.
About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including puppies and seniors. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, as this is my full-time job. I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, feedings, playtime, and bathroom breaks, ensuring pets aren’t left alone for long. While I’m not offering overnight house sitting at the moment, I’m happy to provide house sittings during the day or evening. If I have a dog walk or drop-in, I may step out briefly and return. I will always keep my clients informed of my availability so they know they can rely on me. I love shaping my day around the pets I care for—whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening routines—so I can keep their comfort and consistency at the heart of everything I do. I take safety and trust very seriously and always care for pets as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I closely follow all instructions provided, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medications, and house rules. I keep the environment clean, calm, and familiar to reduce stress for the pet.
“Carla, thank you very much for walking with Pochi. It was very pleased with your kindness. He is very happy and trust you as a family member. I am sure Pochi miss you so much. I will definitely ask you next time too😊🙇♀️”

“Michael has been amazing with Tucker since he has started with us! Tucker is happy when he arrives & it's very obvious they have formed a great connection. Michael has also been assisting with our ongoing training for Tucker on his walks & is always making sure Tucker is safe. We really lucked out when we found Michael & are all very happy with his services & work ethic. Would highly recommend to anybody in search of dog-walking & pet care needs.”

“Jeffrey is a very responsive, reliable, and friendly dog caretaker. We have had him as our dog walker for a while now and he does a great job with our dog. He has great communication as well. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone else. Thanks Jeff!”

About: I have experience caring for a variety of pets including dogs, cats, and birds. While it has been quite a few years, I was a veterinary technician in high school and college. I love all animals and feel comfortable around dogs of all sizes. I am a second grade teacher looking to share my love of animals while earning extra income during the summer. I am a second-grade teacher with two high school children. I can be available most days during the summer due to my career. I am also available most afternoons/evenings during the school year. I will ensure any specific instructions are followed with care and accuracy and make your pet feel comfortable and loved. I can support the needs of both active and relaxed dogs, and love to provide a cozy lap and/or be a throwing companion for your furry family member.
About: I started a pet sitting business in my neighborhood when I was 12 and have been caring for pets ever since! I have two dogs of my own and 8 chickens.I am up to take care of any sort of dog or cat in whatever way works best for your family! I am a full time librarian with afternoon availability and weekend availability as well. I would love to take your dog on walks during my free time or drop in morning and night to feed your cats or whatever your pets need! I house sit for folks around town, taking care of homes and pets while people are away! I like to build trust between me and the animal as well as the family to provide care that works well for everyone.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and chickens for over 10 years. I started by taking care of a friend’s Bernese mountain dog when I was 18, and it’s taken off since then. Over the course of 11 years, I’ve predominantly cared for larger dogs (Bernese, Greyhounds, and New Foundlands). What sets me apart from other sitters is that I treat the home like my own space and leave it just the same as when I arrived. I’m currently unemployed after being laid off. Right now I’m able to be in your home all day and night while caring for your pets. When I’m back to working full-time, I arrange with the owner for a neighbor etc to visit during the day while I’m at work. I typically care for pets in the client’s home because the pet is more comfortable in their typical environment. I ask ahead of time what the pet’s schedule is so I’m familiar with their routine.
About: Hi paw friends 🐾 I am somewhat new to Rover but I have grown up with dogs my entire life. I have always helped my family and friends care for their animals and I always enjoyed doing it. My husband and I got married four years ago and our little girl is three. It's amazing to see her interact with the dogs because she gets more comfortable and happier each time. We will eventually get a dog when the time is right, but I love Rover because it’s give me the opportunity to still bond with pups. I truly love being around animals. Our families sometimes come to stay with us with their dogs and I get a crazy burst of happiness every time. Life is just better with a dog around and I would love to care and help with your pups! :) I know it can be tough trusting your animals in others hands but rest assured that your pet will be in great hands with me & I will send plenty of updates and pictures 📸🐾 I currently work part time (every weekend). So I am free to take care of your pups during the week and still on weekends when I’m home. I still offer some services on the weekends. I will care for the pet how the owner(s) want me to care for them. They will always bed fed, hydrated, clean, warm, and the happiest they can be in my home. My home isn't that big so someone is always around. I am not an out-going person, I do have a good amount of friends but they all come to my house since I am the mama of the group :)
About: I have over 10 years experience caring for pets, including my own dogs as well as pets belonging to family and friends.

I always prioritize making pets feel safe and well cared for! I recently graduated from grad school and while looking for a job, I am currently available on an as needed basis! Available most weekdays and some weekends. I can provide attentive and reliable care tailored to your dog’s routine and needs. In clients’ homes, I can maintain a comfortable and familiar environment by following feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and giving pets plenty of attention and companionship.

About: Hi everyone - currently work from my house and have a really flexible schedule, my 9 year old dog, Kona, loves playing with other dogs, so I thought this would be a good fit. He is really social and well behaved. I have experience taking him on lots of pack hikes, usually with 2 or more dogs, off leash, but also spend a lot of 1x1 time with him. I have had him since he was a puppy, and have plenty of experience with younger dogs as well. I drive an SUV so I can easily accommodate dogs in my car as well. Hope to meet you and you dog(s) soon! I’m currently working part time and have a very flexible schedule. I work from home and also teach yoga a few times a week. I have an SUV so can transport! I’m also familiar with a lot of amazing hiking and walking spots in the area. I am certified in CPR and also hav extensive experience in dog walking/ handling my own dog and others. I take time to listen, feel and observe the dog in my care. I make sure to meet their needs and also listen to owners needs.
