About: I have been fostering puppies for over a year. I have walked, bathed, fed, and made sure that all my dogs have the TLC they need to to feel loved. I am currently full time but I am available in the morning time to drop in to let you pup out or feed your cat. I work right in the ridley area. At my house, both dogs are crated when we are not home and we have a fenced in yard for them to go out to use the bathroom. In clients homes, I am happy to let your pup out of their crates and give them what they need such as a walk, playtime in a fenced in yard, feed and if needed bathe and nail trim. I have my own nail trimmers if clients prefer me to use my own.
About: I have experience with many kinds of animals. I look forward to hopefully meeting your baby in the future! Animals have always been a special part of my life: My schedule is very flexible! Your pets routine is the most important thing to me! I am more than willing to work with the client on the best time! Whatever I need to do to keep your dog happy, healthy, and safe is my top priority. If your pet is comfortable in the crate, then I will use the crate. I do not feel comfortable bringing your dog to a dog park.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and did over night visits. For friends and family. I also have taken care of puppies that were 6 months. I’m currently working part time at Costco. I normally work night shift and have two days off. I could walk dogs in the morning or at night I normally feed them twice a day once in the morning and the other at night. I would walk them three or four times a day. I would then take them outside to either play or run around in a safe environment.
“Julianna was wonderful! She was communicative, quick to respond, and right on time for Georgia’s drop-in visits. She took great care of our pup and sent us the sweetest pictures and updates while we were away. We felt completely at ease knowing Georgia was in good hands and can’t wait to book with her again!”

“Haley was more than amazing when it came to all our needs. It was very easy to keep in contact with her while we were traveling to Europe. She went above and beyond when we saw on our camera of a stranger trying to go through our mailbox and potentially break in. She called the local police and they were there checking the house immediately. I trust Haley with my fur babies 100% and will be rebooking with her in the future. She is so sweet and we got to meet her before going away. Not only did she feed my cats, but she sat there and gave them special attention, which means a lot to any pet owner. Haley this job was made for you. I can’t thank you enough for all that you’ve done!!!!!! I HIGHLY recommend booking with her :)”

About: I have 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with walking, feeding, bathing, and overnight care. I’m very attentive to each pet’s needs, whether that’s high-energy playtime, structured routines, or gentle care for shy or older dogs. I’m also comfortable following specific instructions, administering basic care, and making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate quality time to your pets. I’m available most weekdays during the day and early afternoons, as well as weekends before and after my shifts. I make sure to plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for so they get consistent attention, walks, and playtime. I’m also open to working with your routine to make things as smooth as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always make sure pets are in a secure, clean, and calm environment, whether in my home or yours. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, and routines. I’m very observant and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you always feel at ease. I create a safe, loving space where your pet can relax, play, and feel cared for.
“We originally booked Olivia to watch our 2 kittens while we were away on vacation starting the 25th, but realized we'd be gone all day the 24th (the day we left) so we rushed to contact her late on the 23rd. She was very quick to respond and kind enough to add us to her schedule for the 24th at the last moment. She truly made us feel much better about leaving for vacation. And she came as promised and took care of our furry babies.”

“Alexis had a very calm nature that made our cats very comfortable around her. She did everything as asked & arrived when she was supposed to. Was great not having to worry about the kitties. GREAT photos!”

About: Dedicated dog lover with 10 years of experience providing compassionate care, including feeding, walking, and administering medications. Skilled in handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments, ensuring their safety and happiness while their owners are away. I work full time remotely, and have a very flexible work environment, so I am able to pet sit for just a few hours, or days at a time! I can stop by for a short potty break or a half hour walk! I have 2 medium/large dogs in my home. Both dog friendly, 4 years old. I have a fenced in yard, plenty of extra leashes and 3 large crates if needed.
About: What sets me apart is my calm and gentle demeanor, especially beneficial for anxious or shy pets. I create a peaceful and reassuring environment, helping them feel safe and comfortable. I'm skilled at reading their body language and adapting my approach to their individual needs. I'm also very patient and understanding, giving them the time they need to adjust. I'm experienced in creating a safe and comfortable space, and I am very good at slow introductions. Pet care is a top priority in my daily and weekly routine. I believe in providing consistent care, so I establish regular feeding and walk schedules. I'm also flexible and adapt to each pet's unique needs. Throughout the day, I monitor their behavior and ensure they have fresh water and playtime. I genuinely love spending time with animals and providing them with the best possible care. My approach to pet care is built on providing a safe, happy, and healthy environment for every animal. Here's what that looks like: * Routine and Consistency: I understand the importance of routine, so I strictly follow feeding schedules and exercise plans provided by owners. * Personalized Attention: Every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to their individual needs. Some dogs love fetch, while others prefer gentle cuddles. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality and preferences. For example, with shy cats, I use slow, gentle movements and let them approach me on their own terms.
About: I’ve had dogs all of my life. My father trained dogs in the army and continued throughout his life. I currently have 3 rescue dogs, Marley (lab), Marshall (terrier mix), and Chester (Chihuahua). I also have 3 rescue cats, Tiger (orange tabby), Tabby (calico), and Boots (3 legged tuxedo). Other pets I have had/cared for include Birds, hamsters, fish, hermit crabs, & axolotl’s. I’m also a mom of two! I’m a special education school teacher on summer break!! My youngest daughter is 11, so I have more freedom and spare time on my hands. I love being outside and meeting your animals. Any pet that enters my home or if I enter theirs will be treated as if they are my own. Being that I am a schoolteacher all of my clearances are up-to-date. I have a large fenced in yard. My pets are used to meeting you animals and typically very friendly!! I’m also very used to cleaning up any kind of pet messes as well as administering any type of medication needed.
About: I had a dog for 12 wonderful years! Since he’s passed, I live a travelers lifestyle which makes it hard to own a pet of my own though I’m always checking local SPCA’s just for fun! I’d love to meet and play with other people pets in between traveling. I am 34 years old, with a bachelors in education, and for 10 years was operating a waterpark in New Jersey that recently closed its doors. This is why I am between jobs and I plan to take a summer off of corporate world employment! I’m accountable, take instruction well, and love all animals of all different colors shapes and sizes! I worked as a dog walker/sitter in the past and then got busy with other jobs. This is my there is a large gap between the last reviews and services. Can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends! I’m currently not working, taking the summer off before joining the corporate world again! I plan on doing a lot of traveling but looking for income while also doing something fun! I just moved into a new apartment, it has a large yard, though it’s not fully fenced in, however, I do have a makeshift fenced. I can put up to make it completely fenced in. I have no other pets, I am a very clean person he’s not afraid to get things dirty and clean afterwards if there are any whoopsies.
“Linda is simply the best! After trying with several cat sitters (who just weren’t right for one reason or another) I am so glad to have found Linda. She is caring, communicative, and took excellent care of my cranky cat. She went the extra mile in cleanup & left me a lock box to store keys. I wouldn’t dream of hiring anyone else. She makes me want to travel more often! Thank you Linda we hope to see you soon!”
“This was our first time working with Raquel, and it went very well. She stopped by to spend an hour with our two dogs, Tate and Penny, well also feeding them and giving them lots of love. Raquel was very good communicator, was on time, and provided photographs of her time with our dogs. We are really excited that we found Raquel and look forward to having her spend more time with our dogs, Tate and Penny in the future. If anyone’s looking for a five star Pet Sitter on Rover Raquel‘s your gal!”

About: Of course I love animals, but what matters more to me is noticing who your pet actually is. Are they the kind of dog who needs to sniff the same corner for five minutes before moving on? Are they a little shy at first and pretending not to care? Do they get excited easily and need someone calm around them? Are they a cat who wants company, but absolutely not too much company? I really enjoy figuring out those little things. I’m gentle, patient, and very respectful of each pet’s routine. I don’t believe in rushing them or treating every animal the same. Some pets need play and attention, some need slow walks and quiet reassurance, and some just need someone kind nearby so the house does not feel empty. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a way that still feels familiar to them. I’m also very careful with instructions. Feeding routines, medications, walk preferences, favorite toys, things that scare them, how they like to be greeted, whether they are allowed on the couch. I want to know all of it. I know these details are not “extra.” They are usually the things that make a pet feel secure. I’ll also send updates and photos, not just to say everything is fine, but so you can actually feel connected to them while you are away. My childhood friend and roommate, Matin, may also help me sometimes, and you may see her in some of my photos. She has had pets since childhood and fostered animals for several years, so she is very used to different personalities, nervous pets, affectionate pets, and animals who need a little extra patience. She is calm, loving, and very responsible, and I trust her completely with animals. Between the two of us, your pet will be cared for by people who genuinely like being around animals, but who also understand that trust matters. I’ll treat your pet with warmth, patience, and care, and I’ll treat your home and instructions with respect. This year, much of my work is remote, which gives me real flexibility in my schedule. That means I’m able to spend unrushed, attentive time with pets, not just quick check-ins, but actual companionship, care, and presence. I can shape my day around walks, visits, feeding times, play, and quiet company, depending on what each pet needs. My childhood friend and roommate, Matin, who is included in the pictures, also helps me out with my Rover schedules. My home is my cat Lilo’s safe little kingdom, so I can’t host other pets here. But I’m very happy to come to your home, meet outside for walks, or figure out a setup that feels easy and comfortable for you and your pet.

“Tamikia did a fantastic job taking care of our cat while we were away. She came at the scheduled time and did all that was asked of her and more. She made us feel very comfortable leaving our cat in her care. We enjoyed receiving the daily updates and photos while we were away. We would definitely hire her again!”

About: Currently accepting new clients!!! Hello! My name is Khai. I am currently a college student (online - so I am often available) studying Engineering and available for cat sitting. My nickname is Kitty and some of my friends called me "Kitty Khai Khai" since I'm very affectionate with kitties and I happen to get along with shy, anxiety fueled, or aggressive kitties. I'm originally from Myanmar. Back home at my parents', we end up adopting lots of street cats over 20 years since they happened to stop by and end up living at our house. My parents has raised cats like their own grand children, so I grew up nurturing cats including their kitten babies and senior cats. I handle kitties gently with love and great care, and am very attentive to their needs. I understand how cat parents feel while you're away from your cats; I'm here to make sure you could enjoy your trip while knowing your kitties are well cared for and in safe hands. The well being, happiness and comfort of your kitty is my top priority! I hope to adopt my own cat in the city when I finally finished college... but for now I will get some kitty time in watching and caring for yours! :) Also, I am fully vaccinated + booster shot!! I wash hands before feeding/ touching the kitties and wear a mask when pick up/ drop off at my home and in clients' home. Regular check in/ check out time for kitties are after 4 pm, but I am willing to work with you depending on your needs. 😊 I offer boarding at my home and visiting client's home for drop in services. I have no children and no pets at my home. It has been my life long dream to have a kitty hotel where a kitty guest can enjoy their stay with lots of pets and attention from me and have all the cat trees, toys and amenities. When I was in the house buying process, I chose this home specifically, since it’s spacious for kitties to roam around and lots of windows with sunlight where kitties can enjoy watching outside. I have set it up as a kitty hotel where it’s a vacation place for kitties to chill and relax and spend time with me. My home sweet home is located in a cozy neighborhood and completely safe and warm environment for kitties. Kitties are never allowed outdoors.
