“Nora was very attentive during the meet and greet, she asked a lot of great questions. Nora sent adorable pictures of my cat, Tiny, while cat sitting! No complaints. I would book with Nora again!”


“Julia has watched my 11 week old puppy a couple times now and I have nothing but good things to say about her. She is very kind and knowledgeable. She keeps me updated with pictures and texts the whole time which I really appreciate. I always feel comfortable having her in my apartment to look after my little baby. I highly recommend her!!”


“Super sweet and took care of my fur baby on a last min notice. We had a work trip to Miami pop up and the very next day she was here to help us with Marley. We’re so thankful for her professionalism and prompt reply to our request for a sitter. Extenllent communication and great with Marley. We would most definitely book with Sophia again!!! ???”



“Joshua did a great job of taking care of our dogs. He provides feedback daily and pictures of the dogs. When my family returned my dogs were happy and healthy. Joshua also leaves dog toys and treats after he leaves. Thank you!”


“We went for a two night getaway and left our two Pitbulls and our Britney with Jade. She communicated with texts and pics while we were away which made me feel so much better about leaving our fur babies. When we arrived home the house was spotless and the dogs appeared happy and content as if we had never left. I am so hoping she is available EVERY time we go away this summer !”

“Norah was amazing! My dog can be a little skeptical at times and she took the time to stay as long as she could at out meet and greet until they became comfortable with each other. She was on time, gave updates and sent pictures. 10 out of 10”


About: With years of hands-on experience interacting with dogs of all breeds and temperament, I’ve developed a deep understanding and genuine passion for canine care. From working closely with shelter dogs to supervising group play sessions of up to 60 dogs, I’ve learned to manage pet dynamics with patience, awareness and confidence. My background is supported by numerous courses in canine safety, behavior, communication and proper interaction techniques. I’m also trained in administering medications and handling special care needs, ensuring every dog - whether in a home or social setting - receives the attention, respect and care they deserve. I currently work at a dog care facility part time. My schedule varies by day but I remain committed to accommodating my clients whenever possible. When I take care of dogs in a client’s home, I try to make things as easy and stress-free as possible for both the dog and the owner. I stick to the dog’s usual routine- feeding, walks, playtime, and any meds they might need- so they feel comfortable and at home. I also send updates and photos to reassure my clients’ that their pets are happy and doing well.


“Alyanna mught be my dogs new best friend. She was great with our german shepherd and even managed to win the hearts of our anti social cats. Took great care of the house and sent lots of updates!”


About: I’ve been around dogs all my life, and adopted a pug of my own 12 years ago, so I understand what an important part of the family pets are. I’ve watched dogs from 2 months to 14 years old, from an overweight chihuahua to an old Great Dane. Currently I have a labradoodle and French bulldog that I’ve raised since they were puppies. Currently working from home, so I have time to pop in and check on your pups, or dog sit on the weekends if you need. I will treat your pets like my own - walking them, administering medications, feeding them, whatever is needed. Happy to help take care of your pets.

“Finn was well cared for and very happy to have spent the day with Lucy. We will be scheduling more time with Lucy and would confidently recommend her to others.”


“Gina was very kind and watched our 2 mini aussies and house sat while we were on vacation. She left the house clean and exactly how we left it. Was a very respectful house guest. We will definitely book her again.”


About: As a dog mom myself, I know how important routine, patience, and love are to a happy pup. I’ve personally trained my own dog and have years of experience dog sitting for all kinds of breeds and temperaments. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, or just someone calm and kind to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and at ease while you’re away. Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my schedule—I work from home and have a flexible routine, which allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve throughout the day. Whether it’s midday walks, feeding, or just keeping your pets company, I’m able to adjust my workday to meet their needs and keep them happy and comfortable. In my client’s home, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely—whether that’s feeding times, walk schedules, medications, or preferred playtime rituals. I also keep things tidy and make sure your pet feels calm, safe, and loved while you’re away

“Drake was great to have as a house sitter for our two pups. At the initial meeting the dogs went right up to him. He spent some time getting to know them. While we were gone Drake would text anytime he had a question. Hire him for any dog care you may have”


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 worked at a doggy daycare / boarding facility last year 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’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 currently a full time graduate student evening nights and weekends are typically my most free times. I am usually unavailable Monday from 10-1, Tuesday Wednesday Friday from 830-430 and Thursday from 830-11:15 and 2-4:45. I do have cats of my own so I’m not currently boarding. Open to overnights I have 3 cats of my own that I love more than anything. I’ve been fostering for years. I rescued my last cat a year 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.

“Amber was absolutely lovely! Our regular cat sitter fell through, so we were a bit nervous to find someone else in a hurry. She was everything we needed and more. Very communicative, sent pics and it was obvious our cats took to her quickly. Would absolutely use again in the future. ?”


“We're grateful to Gloria for staying in our home while we were out of town. She took good care of our two dogs; I know the dogs appreciated her company and the ability to stay in their own home while we were away :)”

Jeffrey M.
“I highly recommend Jeffrey as a dog sitter on Rover. He has many years of experience caring for dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and his passion for animals is immediately clear to anyone who knows him. Jeffrey is currently the proud owner of a lovable Labradoodle and a playful French Bulldog, both of whom are incredibly well cared for and happy. He goes above and beyond to ensure their physical and emotional needs are met—whether that means long walks, playtime, grooming, or simply offering a calm, loving presence. In addition to being responsible and attentive, Jeffrey has a natural connection with animals. Dogs gravitate toward him, and he’s quick to notice and respond to their needs. His home is a safe, clean, and welcoming environment, and he always prioritizes the well-being of the dogs in his care. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, experienced, and truly dedicated to dogs, Jeffrey would be an excellent choice.”
