1. Katelyn H.

“Katie is amazing! She came over and helped sooth my new puppy mom anxiety by making sure luna was taken care of, fed, and let out! She stayed to play with luna, which was not necessary, but greatly appreciated!”


2. Tori M.

“Fantastic with my Doberman/Rottweiler mix puppy. Even takes him to a dog park close to the residency for off the leash play time and training.”


3. Sydney E.
“I can’t be more pleased with having Sydney look after my animals while I wasn’t home. She was incredibly reliable and attentive. I have 2 cats and 1 dog and I always get extremely nervous having someone else take care of them but Sydney was constantly sending me updates and pictures, and gave me the peace of mind that my animals were happy, fed and cared for. My dog is a little wild around other dogs and she was able to follow set instructions when taking him out on walks and said he did great which was amazing! It’s obvious she loves being around animals. Highly recommend Sydney to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”


4. Emily Z.
“Emily is a great and responsible pet caregiver. She took great care of my dog and took it for a walk and made it feel loved while I was gone. My dog usually gets really scared staying with people other than me, but she loves Emily! I highly recommend her!!”

She is a true professional and I would trust her with my dogs any day.”

About: My dogs and I have been through AKC certified obedience training I'm experienced in walking multiple dogs at a time Can housesit and care for dogs with special needs Providing positive reinforcement and tasty bribes is my main method of gaining trust with a new dog friend. I'm open to meeting and discussing all forms of service ahead of time I have a flexible part time job that is generally from 9 - 4 Monday through Friday. These times are flexible so if you have a question about a particular day feel free to ask My 2 dogs and I walk almost everyday around our neighborhood just to get some adventure and smell some new fire hydrants. My house has a wood 6' privacy fence around the backyard and I have time to them out 5 or 6 times a day for bathroom breaks or to just run around an play. My dogs started being crate trained as a puppy but as they have grown older and more trusty we use them less and less. I use a lot of positive reinforcement and treat training to bond and build rapport. I feel comfortable around dogs of all shapes and sizes and would prefer to take care of new dogs in their home environment first. My dogs: I have a 6 year old 60lb female Portuguese water dog -- She's a big napper, cuddler and loves cats. My 3 year old, 30lb, male terrier mix is the feisty play pal that keeps everyone entertained.


12. Jill L.

“Jill took great care of Lars. I appreciate the cute video she sent of them on their walk. You and your furry family can’t go wrong with Jill!”


13. Shelby D.

“Shelby always does amazing with my pups!”


14. Sarah M.
“Sarah is one of the most caring and responsible people I’ve ever met. It takes a certain selflessness to meet animal’s needs. And no one better exemplifies this selflessness than Sarah!”


15. Austin L.
“I’m thrilled to share why Austin would be a fantastic fit for Rover. Over the years, I’ve seen firsthand just how caring and attentive he is with his two animals, Monkey (his cat) and Clyde (his dog). He has an incredible way of balancing their unique needs—providing Clyde with the exercise and playtime he craves, while making sure Monkey feels loved and comfortable at all times. Austin’s dedication to their well-being goes beyond the basics. He’s patient, responsible, and truly enjoys spending time with animals, which is evident in how happy and healthy Monkey and Clyde are. I have no doubt he would bring that same level of care and compassion to every pet he looks after through Rover. Austin’s the kind of person who treats every animal like family, making him an ideal choice for pet sitting and walking.”

About: I have taken care of my cats everyday since I was twelve. I also often cat and dog sit for family members whenever they need a sitter. I am back home at college for the year in Springfield Missouri. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need a walker/sitter! I will help out with anything you need! I make sure that they are given everything that they need. Things like food, water, walks, pets, and all of the attention they may need.


17. Amy M.
About: I've taken care of cats, dogs, and birds since I was a teenager. I love them all and will go the extra mile to care for them. I will walk them, play with them, bathe them, and feed them. I'm available 7 days a week, but will only care for one families pets at a time, so first come first served. I take last minute same day requests. I will watch your pets in my home or yours. I don't have any of my own pets right now so yours will get all of my attention and care.


18. Luke & Mackenzie M.
“Luke is the kind of guy dogs love being around! His laid-back vibe puts them at ease, and his chocolate lab, Coco, is proof of that. Whether it’s playtime or just lounging, Luke makes every dog feel like they’ve found a new best friend. I would feel comfortable leaving my dog around Luke for an extended period and so should others!”


19. Tiffany M.
