About: I have petsat and walked dogs for quite a few years. I grew up with larger dogs and will be sure to treat yours with the utmost love and care. I have experience with animals of all sizes & I can easily adapt to the routine of your fur babies, and will prioritize them above anything else as my love for animals is that immense. I also have experience with cats & rabbits. I have my two cats named Moose & Pebble, 11 parakeets, and a dog named Moo. I update my availability weekly, but I will always be communicative about it. This is something I do in my free time and thoroughly enjoy spending time with doing. I am very passionate about animals. I follow written instructions to a T. I am very respectful of people’s homes and can be trusted. I send hourly updates whenever possible and make sure to be communicative when it comes to your fur baby or any possible questions that may pop up.

About: I have worked with animals and have used pet care facilities before and know it is hard to find trusted dependable care. Understand life/work happens and there is always need for pet care to support them with. I am available Monday through Friday days. Evenings for Monday through Thursday. Weekends for sitting overnight. Able to come over to check on animals or feeding time. I have trained two puppies from 4weeks and on that were part of my household. I have a dog that was found in Eastern Market area and have worked with resource guarding.

“Nicole is the best! Knowing she is going to drop in on Louis always gives me peace of mind when I’m out. I feel so lucky that she even spends extra time with my pup!”


“Rachel is the greatest! She's done drop-ins for our pups on two separate occasions and always goes above and beyond. She's always on schedule, shows such deep care for our dogs and home, is exceptionally communicative, and is so fantastic to work with all around. You may not be able to find a better dog helper in the world!”


“Genelle was great with my baby boy and was incredibly flexible given the short notice. She thought about things that I had not even considered. She definitely took what seemed to be a stressful situation and turned it into a simple process. I would definitely recommend her!”


“Cassandra was absolutely wonderful! Our dog is both high energy and high anxiety. She was great with navigating his needs! Her updates and photos were super informative and gave us great ease of mind while we were out of town that our dog (family to us), was well taken care of! She was also super communicative and an absolute pleasure to meet and work with! It is clear she is a true dog lover! I would definitely book her again! ♥️”

About: Lifelong pet lover, expert belly-scratcher, and fluent in squeaky toy. I’ll treat your fur-baby like my best friend—with plenty of play, snuggles, and many photos sent to pet parents! Have to go into the office or want to have a night out? Let me be your pet’s buddy while you’re gone! I have a flexible schedule during the week for drop in visits and/or walks. I am a homeowner with over a decade in finance and a penchant for dependability. Your pet’s comfort and joy is my priority, so let’s meet and see if it works!

About: In a fast paced environment it is easy to overlook our place in the world as animals. Being in close contact with other beings can create connectedness and a sense of place in nature. Simple tasks like dog walking may seem beneath most people, but I see it as an act graciousness and a chance to connect to other beings. As a walker or sitter my goal is to consciously occupy space with your pet. This, for me, means accommodating and changing as situations seem fit. I would also like to stay conscious of any owners wishes and feelings regarding the service I may provide and remember that it is only a service if it works to make their and their pets experience more comfortable.

About: My husband and I work from home and have very flexible schedules that allow us to be present with our pets during the day. There are no kids in the home during the day during the week. Typical day include walks around the neighborhood or nearby park, lounging or playing in the backyard or the dog park. Plenty of toys for chewers and plenty of space in our fenced yard to roam and play. I currently work from home as a technology sales rep. When I am not working, I’m entertaining both my toddler and pets. I often have a decent amount of free time and dog sitting has been a great outlet for my dog to socialize and get some fun in! For repeat pets, I have noticed a big difference after a few days of adjusting. Its important for pets to feel safe in whatever space they are in.

Fitzgerald pet parents share their Rover experiences
Thank you Carissa! She came over last minute after being ghosted from another dog sitter on Rover. She was fantastic..... and patient. I mistakenly deadbolted the front door after telling her it wouldn't be ..... And we got her in and Bryce was saved! lol. I hope she will watch him again in the future, Bryce is a very nuanced little puppy, and she did great! Thank you! Ryan

The ONLY reason I would ever give Sydney less than 5 stars would be to keep her all to ourselves!! Thank you for taking the very best care of our fur babies, I have a hard time trusting others with our dogs. We are so grateful for you taking such great care of our pack!
