About: Hi! I would love any experience and I love all animals. I also have a very flexible schedule! I would love to help anyone I can! I can help out most days of the week. Mostly mornings or afternoons, but working during the day on the weekends works perfectly for me! I love all animals and treat any I meet like my own! I would not mind having to respectfully visit client’s homes if that is needed!

About: I volunteered with a local animal shelter all through my college career, and only stopped when I neeed to move. I have worked with animals that are nervous of people, animals that love people, seniors and puppies! I am also familiar with basic dog training. I'm working from home so I'm always available to walk, sit, nap, or play with your pup! Boarding will never be a problem so long as I'm home, and I have a car available for home visits. I have my own dog (Chihuahua mix!!) that LOVES other dogs and will play until they both drop. I have a crate available for small dogs and an area of the apartment sectioned off that's safe for dogs to roam or chill if they need alone time. When visiting your home, I will treat it like my own and respect any house rules.

About: I’ve always been a dog lover and both me and brother rescued a 6 year old white Labrador named “Zorro” who we brought before Covid began. We love him so much and since I moved countries he now lives with my parents in India. I wear a paw on my necklace which is a memory that he is not far away and will always take care of my parents behind me. Zorro now sits on the dinner table and enjoys all family meals. As someone with medical training and a responsible active lifestyle, I am calm under pressure, highly dependable and attentive to routines, medications, special care needs and feeding schedule. Whether your pet is playful or prefer quiet companionship I’m happy to adapt to their personality and needs. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family 🐾 I’m currently very flexible with my schedule until June 15th as I recently relocated to Pittsburgh to start my residency training. I will be able to work around a time and a schedule post June and will be open to taking care of your pet as per your need and happy to coordinate a schedule with you with my availability. I live in an apartment with my spouse who has grown up all around dogs as pets since he was a kid so we both love dogs but don’t have one of our own currently. Your pet is allowed on our sofa and enjoy the area of a one bedroom. If I am at your home, I will aim to make your pet feel as comfortable and stress free as possible while the owner is way by keeping a normal routine in their own home environment. I will carefully follow your instructions and communication is very important to me, so I can provide regular updates , photos and check-in to help the owner feel reassured. As someone with a medical background I am very attentive to details and safety.

About: I love dogs and grew up with them! Though I don't have the space for them now, I've been missing some puppy playtime! Both of my parents are vets as well, so I'm also pretty well versed in all things pet care! I do work full-time, but a lot of my job can be done from home depending on the amount of notice I have before discussing that with my boss. That being said my weekends are pretty open as well as the occasional monday. I typically work from home every other monday! I love all animals! Growing up I had 2 dogs and then foster failed 2 cats! Those 2 cats currently live with my parents, but I'm bringing them up here when I move into my own place. Both of my roommates also have cats!

We hired Kelsey to care for our elderly cat who requires medicine 2x a day while going out of town. Our cat is very shy but took to Kelsey very quickly. She was punctual, meticulous, and went above and beyond to provide outstanding care for our sweet guy. She played with him, took outstanding notes, followed up with updates and pics, and ensured he got everything he needed. We would hire her again with no question. Highly recommend her.

Katlyn was so kind to my cats. She followed all of my instructions and beyond. She coaxed my shy cats out from under the bed and spent time with each of them. My cats had scattered litter and she even vacuumed it up without me asking! I’d definitely ask Katlyn to help again. Thank you so much, Katlyn!

About: 🐾 Many of my clients have become friends, and their pups’ unique quirks always keep our household laughing. Whether it’s a one-time visit or recurring stays, I’m here to give them plenty of love and send you the cutest updates along the way 🥰. As a pet mama myself, I know how important peace of mind is while you’re away. We baby ours (big time), and we’ll baby yours too… silly voices and all! 📍 Location – I'm about 25-30 minutes from Verona (it's listed as my location for visibility purposes), but we have clients from all over. I also offer flexible pick-ups/drop-offs to make things easy (if needed). 🐶 Routine: I work from home so I am always here and available to care for him/her. They will be very well loved! We especially enjoy going for walks and playing in the yard. As I mentioned, I'll keep you updated throughout the stay with photos, and other updates. If I'm unsure about anything, I will absolutely reach out and ask you!

About: I grew up with cats, dogs and fish. As an adult I’ve personally cared for 1 large dog (Rottweiler/Pitbull/Labrador) and 2 cats. The dog was a troubled rescue that I trained and then found a permanent home. I help with my mother's aging Cocker Spaniel and share in the care of my partner's 3 cats. I’m a scooter riding door dasher, short form video and plein air artist. I was a chef/baker for 15 years. My schedule is completely flexible. Please feel free to set my hours. I live with 3 cats at the moment, black, white and grey. It’s like dancing to a meowing grey scale. They are spoiled, but just enough.

My dog instantly connected with Aubra at our meet and greet! She provided a couple of drop-in visits and was very punctual. She kept me updated with great communication throughout, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I could tell my dog was comfortable and well cared for. I’d definitely recommend Aubra.

For a vacation where everything that could go wrong almost did, Kayli was the one reliable positive thing that we had to deal with through our planning and travels! Kayli was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and was super understanding and easy going while dealing with our pipes freezing while she stayed with our pets. I also think our pets behaved better for her than they do for us!! I was a little reluctant to use rover as we have always had friends stay with our pets but I am so happy to have found Kayli!

As a dog “parent” I appreciated Iana’s professionalism - her courtesy, communication, and kindness. Our dog sometimes won’t leave his crate when someone new is in the home. Iana gently persisted, allowing him some “space” yet providing encouragement when needed, giving him the opportunity for going outside. Her pictures and texts kept us appraised of her visit. We would definitely hope to have her with us again!
