About: I have owned two dogs and a cat in my 25 years of life and currently have two dog nephews. I have also owned two ferrets. I’ve dog sat many fur babies! I enjoy the responsibility of caring for my furry friends. There’s nothing I’m not up for. I am a full time grad student. I have free time in the evening and various days throughout the week. I am busy, but also available and ready to help where and when I’m needed. I am meticulous, and very passionate when it comes to animals. I love giving back to my friends who add so much happiness to my life. It’s the “leash” I can do.

About: I grew up around and with dogs and absolutely adore them. From chihuahua’s to rottweilers I love them all! I was bit as a child so do have some fear when it comes to reactive dogs and would rather not sit for them. While my expertise is cats the more dogs I’ve sat the more comfortable I am. So not only am I helping you but you’re helping me :) My boyfriend and I both work 9-5 most days but can always stop by for checkins on our breaks. We sit together and work around our schedules to make time for the pets we care for. We have multiple cats as well as fish, frogs, and a lizard. We know how important routines are and do our best to keep your pet in their routine. We ask that your Rover profile is updated with all the information needed to care for your pet up to your standard. Some examples would be feeding and bathroom routines.

About: I grew up with animals: goldfish, rabbits, birds, and dogs. I currently have a rambunctious Shiba Inu that loves to keep me on my toes! I have also taken care of my friend's dogs from walking to dog/house sitting, volunteered at local animal shelters throughout my life. I am a resident physician at the Jacobs School of Medicine, and I would love to get to know you and your pet! I am a full-time resident physician. Currently, my schedule changes every 2 weeks but in general, I get at least 1 full day off a week. I am generally free after 5pm on most weekdays. On the weekends I am generally free after 1pm. I’m happy to work with your schedule and find a time that works best! Safety trust, and communication are the biggest things for me. I don't offer boarding services as of now, so all walks and drop-ins will take place in your residence or around your neighborhood.

About: I've been a cat dad of my own and looked after friends' and family's cats and dogs for 20+ years, including those in good health and those with special healthcare needs, like regular medications, etc. I love playing with them and just hanging out together...Basically just being pals! I'm not working full-time currently, I'm available every day of the week for pet care needs. Right now my main responsibilities are to the beck and call of my own 7-year-old Calico cat Partridge. I am very adept at dealing with feeding cats and dogs, dog walking, cleaning/clearing litter, and socializing with cats and dogs at their own comfort level. I have experience with special feeding routines such as pill and oral syringe feeding, and with application of topical medicines/ointments.

If I am dog sitting I am able to let your puppy out out during lunch u less I am working from Home! I am available for your pup throughout the weekends. Whether it’s just for a walk or company. Unfortunately, due to my own dogs reactivity I am not able to care for other dogs in my Home. N/a n/a n/a n/a n/a n

About: I have always been an animal lover. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of different sizes, breeds, and with special needs. Let me spoil your cat or dog while you need to step away! I included pictures of past pets that I have owned or cared for. I work from home with a flexible daily schedule, so your precious pet will get non-stop attention. Daycare drop off and pickup hours can be between 6 am and 7 pm. Pickup times after 7 pm would need to be booked as overnight boarding with pickup the following morning. I offer extended stays as well. Currently, I don’t have any pets in my apartment, yet I have plenty of open space for hosting furry visitors. I have worked with many foster dogs who were abused and needed extra attention, so I am sensitive to any special needs your pet may have. I will be glad to take your dog for outside walks at least few times a day! Please let me know of any other needs your pet may have and I will be happy to discuss how I could accommodate.

About: Dogs aren’t just pets, they’re family, and I treat them that way! Whether it’s backyard zoomies, long sniff-filled walks, or lazy cuddle sessions, I love making every pup feel happy and at home. I have experience with dogs of all ages — from energetic puppies who need structure and consistency to senior dogs who appreciate a slower pace and extra TLC. I’m comfortable with medication routines, reinforcing basic training, and adapting to each dog’s unique personality. Most importantly, I make sure each pup feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away, because they deserve nothing less. My goal is simple: to keep tails wagging and pet parents worry-free! I currently work a hybrid schedule (9–5) with three days in the office (Monday–Wednesday) and two days at home (Thursday–Friday), but my in-office days are flexible! On office days, I’m available for walks before and after work, as well as overnight boarding from 5:30 PM to 8 AM the next morning. When I’m working from home, I can offer walks throughout the day or full-day boarding. Weekends are completely open — I’m available Saturdays and Sundays for walks, drop-ins, or dog sitting at either my home or yours. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priority. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine, I make sure they have a calm, secure, and loving environment. I take the time to learn their routines, favorite spots, and any special needs so they feel comfortable and cared for. Walks are always done on leash, with plenty of water and breaks, and I never leave pets unattended outdoors. I also keep things tidy and make sure your home looks just as you left it. You can count on regular updates, photos, and lots of happy tails while you’re away!

About: I have worked with dogs as little as 10 weeks to senior pups! I make sure they always feel comfortable, happy, and right at home. I want every pup in my care to feel comfortable, loved, and right at home. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and adjust their day based on their age, energy level, and individual needs. I provide attentive, responsible care and take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, comfort level, and specific needs before their stay or visit

About: Hi! I’m a passionate animal lover with a lifetime of experience caring for all kinds of pets. I currently have two big, lovable dogs—a German Shepherd and a Cane Corso—as well as two cats, so I know how to handle different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Whether your pup is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, they’ll get personalized attention and care like one of my own. Hi there! My name is Isabella , and I’m a professional hairstylist working Wednesday through Saturday. On my days off, I’m looking to spend more time doing something else I love—caring for animals. As someone who has had pets my entire life and currently owns two dogs (a German Shepherd and a Cane Corso) and two cats, I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and compassionate looking after your furry family members. I’d love the opportunity to help out with dog walking or pet care when you need an extra hand. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. At home, I provide a structured, loving, and safe environment for my pets, which includes two large-breed dogs—a German Shepherd and a Cane Corso—and two cats. I focus on consistent routines, daily exercise, mental stimulation, and plenty of affection. My pets are well-socialized, receive proper nutrition, and are always kept clean, comfortable, and happy. Whether it’s going on long walks, engaging in playtime, or simply giving them the attention they need, I treat each animal with the respect and care they deserve. My experience with a variety of temperaments and needs allows me to confidently and responsibly care for others’ pets with the same level of dedication.

About: I have cared for and owned many dogs since I was a child. Have cared for and boarded family members dog on many occasions in the last 6 years. I am very kind and patient with all animals. I work full time Monday to Friday. I can watch or board your pet fully on the weekends or after 4PM during the week. If its a pet that already uses crating during the work day I can also accommodate. I have a large fully fenced large yard, large home and will gladly walk your dog in the neighborhood. We have two kind children who love dogs and can help keep your dog company.
