“I couldn’t be happier with the care Valeria provided for my dogs! Valeria sent regular updates, photos, and even a few fun videos—such a thoughtful touch that made a huge difference. She is very responsible, attentive and trustworthy!!”


About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. From growing up with family pets to regularly watching the dogs and cats of friends and relatives, I’ve gained years of hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and routines. What truly sets me apart from other sitters is the genuine bond I build with each pet—I treat every cat and dog as if they were my own. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable when their owners are away, and I pride myself on providing consistent, attentive care that brings peace of mind to both pets and their humans. Pet care is a natural and essential part of my daily and weekly routine. I plan my days around my pets’ needs because their well-being is always my top priority. From morning walks and mealtimes to playtime, grooming, and evening wind-downs, I make sure every aspect of their care is handled with attention and love. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze into my schedule—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and intentionally make time for. That same level of dedication and reliability carries over when I care for other people’s pets, as I treat them with the same love, respect, and responsibility I give my own. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or new clients, I prioritize comfort, safety, and consistency in their routine. In my home, I create a calm pet friendly environment where cats and dogs have space to relax, play, and feel at ease. I maintain a regular schedule for feeding, walks, play time, and bathroom breaks. When caring for pets in the client’s home I respect their space and stick closely to the routine, their dog is familiar with. I also provide regular updates photos, messages, and check in so owners feel connected and reassured.

About: I have been raised around dogs my entire life and started to gain responsibility for my dogs around age 7 when I was old enough to understand how to take care of them! I have 2 goldendoodles named Rosie and Dolly who I love so much. Family and friends have relied on me to take care of their pets from time to time and it really is a fun thing for me to do! I am currently working as a nanny/babysitter whenever I’m needed and looking for a side hustle! Also looking to get more active and go on walks so why not bring a dog along with me?! I think it’s very important for dogs to not only just be fed and cared for, but also played with and given attention too! I take care of my dogs in my home but also make sure to give them the love and attention they deserve!

About: I’ve had pets in my life for as long as I can remember, including cats, dogs, birds, fish, hamsters, guinea pigs, and rabbits. I’ve cared for animals big and small, active and easygoing, and everything in between. These days I share my home with a sweet dog and a saltwater reef tank full of fish and coral, so daily care and attention to detail are second nature to me. Being semi-retired gives me a very open schedule, so I can offer dog walks and drop-ins throughout the day. Whether it’s a midday walk, an afternoon check-in, or an early evening visit, I have the flexibility to make sure pets get the attention and care they need. When providing drop-in care, I treat each pet and home with the same respect I give my own. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and cared for according to their routine, while keeping the home secure and tidy during every visit.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10, and I don’t just “watch” pets—I build a relationship with them. My own dog, Gadget, is almost 12 years old, and I’ve been his lifelong best friend, snuggle buddy, walker, and groomer. Whether it’s trail hikes, neighborhood strolls, or indoor games like hide-and-seek, I tailor care to what each dog enjoys most. What makes me different is my calm, caring approach. I pay close attention to body language and behavior to respond to a pet’s needs, not just follow a routine. I believe clear communication, trust, and creating a safe environment are essential to happy pets. From house training to meal routines to peaceful walks, I care for every dog like they’re part of my family—because to me, they are. As a stay-at-home dad, my schedule is flexible day or night and pet care is a natural part of our daily rhythm. I’m available on weekdays, evenings, and weekends to care for your pup with the same attention and love I give my own buddy, Gadget. My two daughters are also part of our pet-loving household—they enjoy going on walks and sharing snuggles with our furry visitors. Whether it’s a calm companion or a playful pup, your dog will be part of a warm, active, and caring environment throughout the day. I’d like to be mindful of creating a safe, trusting, and interactive environment for your pup in your home. I’d like to think I have a great attention to detail and like to keep things organized and clean just the way you need it.

About: I’ve babysat younger cousins and babies before, I have taken care of my own dog, and my cousins dog, I’ve also taken care of grandparents and other seniors. I have a plenty of time to take care of animals, I’m athletic so I can take pets on walks or runs, and I’m never too busy, I stay at home most of the time. I make sure my own dog is well groomed, well fed, bed is clean, house is clean, take her on daily walks and pet her or give her attention when needed.

About: I’ve been petsitting for dogs, cats, small animals & farm animals for over 8 years now. I grew up with Bull Mastiffs and now currently have 4 rescues who I spend much of my time with when I’m not out at school. I’ve comfortably taken care of bookings of over a dozen cats & dogs at a time before & am comfortable administering medicine, bathing/grooming, training, exercising, and any cleaning necessary in addition to sitting. I’ve taken training and behavioral classes and have volunteered with local shelters and rescues for years. The longest I’ve so far pet sat for a family has been for about 2 weeks & I am comfortable with both short + long term sitting. I’m currently in my second year of college at the University of Redlands and work part-time on campus. Because of this, I may be away for 3-4 hours at a time (depending on the day). Beyond my classes and work schedule, I am able to stay with your pets much of the day and I always try to stick the best that I can to their normal routine. Being so far from my dogs back home, I always love when I can spend time with animals! As of right now I am only able to provide care in your own home, although I’m looking into the possibility of boarding in the future. However, regardless if boarding or sitting in your own home, I like to stick to whatever the typical routine is for your animal, in order to help provide comfort for your animal and reduce stress or anxiety that they may have while you are away. And, I can promise your pet(s) will have plenty of play time & attention while you’re away! 🐾💗

About: I grew up with all kinds of pets! Dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, rats, fish and a duck. I have a deep love for all animals and I would be honored to help take care of yours!

About: I am first and foremost an animal lover. I have had large dogs all my life. Two golden retrievers and an Alaskan Malamute, not simultaneously. I currently have a 5-year old Alaskan Malamute. I am the go to pet sitter in my friend groups with many years of experience with all types of dogs. I have also fostered cats with Hospice Hearts Animal Rescue in Urbana, IL. I work 2-3 days a week as an RN. In my spare time I take my 5-year old Alaskan Malamute on walks, runs, hikes, and bike ride. My malamute is exercised daily. I believe our furry friends need frequent exercise just like us. I would give your pet undivided attention and care.

Hi! I’m Xaiviea, I’m 29, and animals have been the biggest part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for just about everything—puppies, kittens, parrots, reptiles, ferrets, chinchillas, barn animals—you name it! I spent a couple years as a professional dog trainer at Petco, regularly volunteer at local shelters, and have been an emergency placement foster many times. I’ve even dabbled in reptile husbandry and helped get my own mom into reptiles—she now has five, and I help her care for them! Right now I live with family to help out my elderly parents, and I share my life with four lovable Frenchies and my sphynx cat, Chicken. (Yes, his name is Chicken. Yes, he lives up to it. 😂) My long-term dream is to open two animal rescues—one just for French Bulldogs and one for all animals—with tons of space for everything from horses to hedgehogs. I also hope to go back to school for biology and zoology, and I’m using Rover to help save for that goal. I treat every pet like my own—furry kids with unique needs, personalities, and big emotions. You can trust me to keep them safe, loved, and totally spoiled. 💖 Thanks for reading—I can’t wait to meet your babies! My schedule is completely open and i promise I will make caring for your pets my first priority. I can stay as long as you'd like or I can pop in as many times as you'd like. Whatever you want I'll make happen! I'm an animal freak and provide the best care possible. My dogs are all on individual diets and have there supplements and all! I don't play when it comes to pet care! I take pride in how I care for my pets and your pets will get the exact same treatment.

“Gabrielle was able to pick up my last minute dog walking request and responded very quickly. She’s very sweet and is understanding when I explained to her about my dog’s unique behavior. Followed instructions very well. Great communication. Detailed rover card. Highly recommend!”


About: I’ve cared for my own pets for years and understand the responsibility, patience, and love it takes to keep them happy and healthy. From walks and playtime to feeding and grooming, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’ve also looked after pets for friends and family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. You can trust that your dog will be in kind, attentive hands. I am currently out of school for the summer l so I have a lot of free time to enjoy and care for an animal and follow any routine or schedule they might have. At home, I have a fully fenced backyard where pets can safely run, play, and enjoy the fresh air. Inside, my house has an open floor plan that gives them plenty of space to move around comfortably. I’ve also set up a small indoor fence area so they can relax and be cared for in a cozy, secure spot when needed. Whether we’re inside or outside, I make sure pets feel right at home and always safe,

Abigail R.
“Abigail is one of the most caring, and loving sitter for dogs. She’s definitely reliable and a BFF to all pets! I’d hire her over and over again.”


Julianna C.
“Julianna is reliable, responsible, and mature. She has taken care of our two dogs and has done an excellent job, even taking the time to connect with our shy dog. I am extremely picky about who takes care of our animals and I am totally comfortable leaving our dogs with Julianna because I know they are in good hands. She is trustworthy and honest and I wholeheartedly recommend her.”


Raeanne R.
“Raeanne has watched all 3 of my cats several times now and she will always be my first call when I go out of town! She treats each one of them as if they are her own pet, spending time playing with them and snuggling not just coming over to feed them and leave. They all trust her and love seeing her come over. She is very communicative and reaches out if she ever has any questions or just to send me photos/videos while I’m away which I appreciate:) I highly recommend using Raeanne as your next pet sitter, you won’t regret it and neither will your pet☺️”




Cindy H.
“As someone who loves to travel, you can imagine how hard it is to find a reliable pet sitter. Cindy has made herself available to look after Mugen countless times while I was away from home. When we are away Mugen goes through separation anxiety and Cindy always does her best to keep Mugen comfortable. Mugen once had diarrhea while Cindy was petsitting and without hesitation, Cindy has clean up the mess and gave him a shower right away. You can imagine the mess that was! But Cindy does what needs to be done.”


Xaiviea L.
“Xaiviea is obsessed with animals in the healthiest way. We've been best friends ever since I was 8 (I'm 31) and she's had SO many pets. She's never rehomed any for unnecessary reasons and I'm pretty sure she's a pet foster still i could be wrong but she used to I know that. I remember a while back she was looking for work cause she moved back to California from out of state and she was hurting for money pretty bad (I hope I don't get in trouble with her saying that haha) but she ALWAYS managed to get the fancy food all her dogs ate, always got there vitamins, always managed to have the money for vet apts, like she would go hungry before her pets would lol her pets wouldn't even notice whenever she'd be broke or something like that lol she can't pass a dog without yelling "GOOD BOY SPOTTING" can't watch any animal stretch without saying "biiiiiig stretch!" If you walk down the street with your dog by xaiviea she will ask you if she can pet it lol I have a corgi named Jack and she's the only one I trust to watch him. She's his regular sitter and I know she'll do anything to keep him safe and happy. Xaiviea is the best candidate for this job by far”
