“Amber did such an amazing job checking in on and walking our pup while we were away. Her communication was great and I felt confident leaving Olive in her care for the day. I highly recommend Amber to watch your pet!”
“Rose was a great cat sitter. She made sure our skittish cats were well taken care of and sent us daily photos (despite their attempts to hide). She even disposed of the remains of an unfortunate mouse that our cats had caught. Would definitely use her again.”
“Today was Chrystine’s first visit. She is very kind and took lots of notes during our meet and greet. I feel very comfortable with her at my home watching my baby girl. She’s very informative and my dog loves playing with her. I will definitely be booking her on a weekly basis. I would highly recommend her. Thank you”
“Becky is a wonderful pet sitter!! I highly recommend her! She took great care of my dogs and was prompt and on time for our first meet and greet. I could tell right away what a great person she is!”
About: Experience with large and small dogs, from rambunctious puppy wrangling to being tackled by big pups. I love them all, and am very good at understanding dog signals. I have no trouble walking strong dogs that like to pull, and I do not get frustrated by dogs. They have feelings, just like us, and I treat them as equals. I have experience with old dogs with physical needs and ailments, and tending to those needs. I had a small dog that was blind and nearly deaf, and I would steer him from danger and help him feel safe and comfortable. I also now have a big dog who was very naughty as a puppy, but I was able to train him patiently and well and now he's a big sweetheart.
About: I have 20 years experience with walking dogs. I am very active and enjoy dog walking and playing with and caring for dogs. All dogs love me. I would enjoy walking with your dog. I have plenty of free time to enjoy dog walking. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be accommodating to your schedule.I want to help provide active time for your dog, as walking is an important part of a dogs happiness and well being and I would like to be a part of that. I engage in playful activities such as fetch and walk them for exercise and well being. I make sure they are hydrated and fed if needed.
“I reached out to Brittney at the last minute one evening and needed someone for the next day. She was great and responded quick to help out. She treated my dog amazing and would definitely recommend and will be reaching out to her again! Thank you!!”

About: I’ve taken care of puppies and older dogs since I was 12. From baths, to meal times to even giving medication and walks, lots and lots of walks! I work in education and I am off for the summer and during school hours (September to the end of June), I’m done by 230. I am extremely reliable and will come to your house to walk, feed or play with your dog. I am also available to pet sit at your home if needed.
“Jessika is a star. She cares for our cat with compassion and professionalism. Her communication is wonderful, and her responsiveness and reliability always reassure us when we have to leave him. Thank you Jessika, and Rover!”
“Delia was very communicative and took so many pictures for me. As a first time Rover user this was such a good experience and I would definitely go back to Delia for any pet needs 🙂”
About: Common courtesy and communication is paramount. **Willing to travel up to an hour away. Just because Rover says you are outside my service area it does not always mean you are. I have clients an hour North and South of me. **Necessary update as of 6/21/23** I will require current credit card info be on file at your vet or provided for me in your pet write up ONLY in case of emergency. In the event of an emergency and I could not get a hold of the human, puppies have no pockets to hold a card, the vet required me to pay. I have raised 3 separate RESCUE Rottweilers to be exceptional ambassadors of their breed. I currently do not have any pets since my big boy passed away in 2016. I hope to again one day have my own dogs. Until then I will love YOUR pet. **I DO NOT board animals at my home. Only repeat clients would MAYBE be possible for a very short amount of time.** Clients pets have included many breeds, species for days, weeks. Many Golden Retrievers, Doodles, mixes aka Heinz57s, Old English Sheep dog, lots of kitties, a chameleon, turtles, a bearded dragon, a small bird, fish, Rottweilers, a very challenging but lovable English Bulldog and Huskies one of which was very reactive. Oh and a LOT of house plants! PLEASE NOTE: I am deathly allergic to horses which I am very sad about. Any type of animal requiring LARGE amounts of hay would also be a problem i.e, goats, cows, alpacas I am sorry to say. Small rodent animals requiring hay for food or bedding has not been a big deal. My personnel dogs were very public dogs, parks, events etc. With the ever present fact in mind that as good as my animal was it is still an animal. Never purposely putting them in a situation to be loose (unless at home or a fenced park) or get into anything that could harm them. Read quite a few books/manuals by military working dog trainers in hopes of training a service oriented Rottie. Came very close to passing the Good Citizen certification but my dogs never liked the “stay” part when I had to walk away with my back turned. They just had to be next to me. So close. PLEASE NOTE: I have my preferences set to NOT to show any photos of YOUR pet publicly. I would ask permission first to share. Photos only NEVER infomation of course. My schedule allows me to be available to be in YOUR HOME, with your pets all day/night, unless noted ahead of time and of course trips to the store. I have many types of animals that insist on sleeping in bed just like they do when their people are home which in fine by me. Just take some Benadryl and snuggle on in. I try to stick closely to how the home runs normally so the pets do not have any surprises that can make them anxious. Sleep, food, walks, play time etc. I supervise dogs in their own yard fenced or not. I am very organized and like an outlined idea of their schedule to be written down for me to follow as closely as YOU would.
About: I have been taking care of both cats and dogs since I was a child. Now, living on my own, I am excited to meet and spend time with more furry friends! I am currently employed but have plenty of time to spend with your pet. Any chance I get, I will be hanging out with the little one. I have a balcony that can be used for certain dogs and ample space in my apartment that should suit the needs of any dog or cat.

Jennifer F.
“Jennifer watched my 2 unruly, reactive huskies for two weeks. One is 11, the other is 2, and they do not get along. I was really worried about whether a sitter would know how to manage them. At our first meeting, it was clear that she knew what she was doing--she was firm and clear about boundaries and they settled right down while we chatted. While I was away and had no phone or internet access, my younger boy found a porcupine. (I'd never seen one in my area so never even considered it a possibility--of course he found it while I was away.) Jennifer kept a cool head, contacted my vet and support people, and got both dogs the care they needed. (Seriously, if I had been there I would have panicked...the pictures were so bad.) She then skillfully managed these two traumatized and drugged up huskies until I got back. On an unrelated note, it can be weird to have someone stay in your home and you never quite know what you might come back to, but Jennifer left it actually *better* than she found it. She even tidied up my disaster of a deck! I highly, highly recommend Jennifer. This was probably one of the worst case scenarios for any pet sitter and she was literally a life saver.”
