“Amber is absolutely amazing! She's incredibly accommodating and wonderful with Simona. I would love for her to become Simona's regular walker as soon as possible. Amber's attention to detail is impressive; she even helped by putting things out of Simona's reach when she was being a bit naughty. Highly recommend her for anyone needing a caring and attentive walker!”

About: I’ve taken care of friends and families animals throughout my life and can never get enough of doggy kisses! I have taken care of many pets on and off throughout my teen years and college and now that I am back in college…here I am! I am detailed, great with schedules, and understanding of special accommodations or unusual pets. I am in college part time, and am available to your pets all day Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, while Mondays and Wednesdays are before 9 and after 2. I have a fenced yard and understand keeping a proper schedule to make your pet feel safe and comfortable. I will always take special care of your animals in your home as well with toy pick up, wiping up messes, and scheduled outside play time that leaves them tired.
About: I have over 30 years of pet care experience, taking care of puppies and kittens through senior dogs and cats. I don’t have children and consider my pets my children! You will have no worries while you are away from them. I have been there and understand what it’s like to be away from my pets and worrying that the people that I asked to look after my pets won’t get there on time to let them out or will forget and not feed them or give them water or scoop their litter box. If you hire me you will not have that problem. You can relax on your vacation or on your business trip knowing that your fur babies are taken care of. I currently work as a merchandiser and have a flexible schedule and can arrange my schedule to include pet visits at any time of the day. I do not currently have a fenced in yard but plan on getting one so if you want me to keep them in my home, I will leash them and walk them.
About: I own two cats and two dogs, and have been taking care of friends and neighbors pets for years. I am well experienced in cleaning/washing dogs, walking them, and playing/loving on fur babies! I just graduated high school, so I have plenty of time to take of your pets. My schedule is flexible and I look forward to loving on your fur-baby. I provide a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment where your pet will be treated like family. I make sure pets have plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and bathroom breaks throughout the day. I’m comfortable following your pet’s regular routine, including feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions you provide.
About: I have taken care of my own pets (cats & dogs) as well as for neighbors, friends, and family most of my life and I will always treat them like my own. My own black lab fur baby is a senior girl. I've had her since she was a pup, so I have experience with all stages of life with dogs. I also have 2 cats and love playtime & snuggling with them (on their own terms of course). I am doing Rover exclusively for the time being, so my schedule is very open 7 days a week. I can do feedings, potty breaks, play time & exercise periodically throughout the day as needed. I have no problem with boarding/overnight stays anytime as well! I am a responsible pet parent, and I will always treat your fur babies like they are my own. I treat them how I would want mine to be treated if I were using these services. I will always follow your directions for feeding, rules, & boundaries. You can trust that your babies will be safe and have a fun time while you are away!
About: I have 4+ years of experience with many types of animals including dogs, cats, and even bunnies. I’m an animal lover who just wants to be surrounded by them as much as possible. I can train as I’ve had 3 dogs myself in which I’ve pretty much trained all 3. I am doing online school right now and have a bunch of free time to take care of the pets in need, but would prefer weekdays. I have a fenced yard with PLENTY of room. Very spacious living space where they can roam if wanted and just to have in general.
About: I have been a pet owner for my entire life! I enjoy playing, walking, and spending time with dogs and cats. I have also been a sitter for several personal friends and family members. I’m currently on vacation from college, so I can spend as much time as needed with all of my clients! I am available most days, excepting Thursdays and Fridays. I am very comfortable with animals and try to ensure that they are comfortable with me. I walk my large, excitable dog on a regular basis. This experience gives me confidence when I walk other animals.
About: i have grew up with dogs. i have worked at a dog boarding/daycare place where we feed, water and let dogs out and cleaned up after them if they made a mess. i am completely free anytime during the day unless i have a doctor appointment which i would communicate with you about! so i would be free anytime to let your fur baby out and feed them and play with them for a while and just spoil them more than they already are! if your babies were in a kennel i would let them out and play with them for as long as y’all would let me and if you had a fenced in yard or if they do fine out in the yard without a leash i would play with them outside and before i would put your babies up i would take them on a walk and make sure they used the bathroom!
About: I’ve trained and taken care of many pets in the past and I love animals so much I figured it would be a great idea to pet sit for multiple people and pets. I understand that all pets have different personalities, just let me know and I will do whatever is needed to keep them comfortable and happy. I will care for your pet like it’s my own, I consider myself to be good with all types of pets. I’ll run around with them in the yard or if they like being lazy in the house, that’s okay too! I’m able to care for puppies, old, huge, little, sick, or hyper. I can’t wait to meet and care for your pets!! I am currently self employed so my schedule is very flexible! I will have plenty of time to care for your pups as much as you/they need! I have found that pups have less anxiety when they’re in their own home but I am more than willing to provide pet care in my home! Also I know pricing on here can be a little weird, we can discuss whatever is comfortable for you.
“Jessica was absolutely phenomenal and went above and beyond taking care of my two dogs!! We were gone for almost two weeks, and she kept me updated on the dogs and sent lots of pictures. I felt like my dogs were cared for and loved as if they were her own. No doubt I will book her again when we need a pet sitter. Thank you for the wonderful care you’ve given my dogs and keeping them happy and loved while we were gone!! :)”

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available on for boarding on weekend, and weekdays after 9am to 7pm for starters and see how it goes… I'd love to help with pet-sitting! But I have three dogs of my own, so I'm unable to stay overnight. However, I'd be happy to do drop-in visits to check on your dogs anytime. I'm available for afternoon visits, or whatever works best for you. Let me know if you'd like me to come by for a visit!
About: I’ve taken care of my dogs since I was 11. I was told I had to do all the puppy chores if I wanted a puppy so I’ve always walked, bathed, feed, and played with them as much as possible. I love all dogs no matter the shape or size. I also live on a big farm where they would be able to play and run all day long. I currently work a full-time job three days a week. It can depends on my schedule, but I get my schedule months in advance, so I’m available on the days that my calendar says I’m available and I’m normally available every other weekend. I do go to college but I’m online this semester so I’ll be home the days I don’t work. We have all kinds of toys and room for them to play. I live in a neighborhood. I don’t have a fenced in yard but they would be able to run all day as they pleased and run inside as they please and go on fun trips and do all that kind of stuff while they’re with me my parents also have a big farm so there might be days where I decide to go out there and I could take your pups with me and they can run and run and play all day long on the farm.I also never mind to bath them if they get dirty!
About: I have about 2 years of consistent hands-on experience caring for dogs as an adult, in addition to growing up around pets my whole life. I currently take care of my own two dogs, so I’m very familiar with daily routines like feeding, walking, playtime, and overall care. Through my experience, I’ve learned how to understand different dog personalities and adjust to their needs — whether they’re energetic, shy, or need extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable with maintaining routines and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Caring for animals has always been natural to me, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I usually work mornings and get off around 12pm on weekdays and weekends, which leaves me flexible in the afternoons and evenings for pet care. I’m able to adjust my schedule to fit bookings and make sure pets get consistent care and attention. I care for pets by keeping them on their normal routine with feeding, walks, and plenty of attention. I have a fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, and I also take them on regular walks for exercise. I focus on making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved, and I always follow any instructions provided. I also send updates so owners feel at ease while their pet is with me.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life—I have years of experience caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, and small pets. Whether your pet is high-energy, shy, or needs special care, I take the time to understand their personality and make them feel safe and loved. I treat every animal like they’re my own and always keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely love what I do. Let me give your pet the care and attention they deserve while you’re gone! I work part-time, so I have a lot of flexibility during the week and on weekends. I can usually fit in morning and evening visits, and I’m happy to adjust where I can to fit your pet’s routine. When caring for pets in your home or mine, their safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of love, structure, and attention. I take time to learn each animal’s routine, dietary needs, and quirks so they feel safe and understood. In your home, I always treat your space with respect—keeping things clean and sticking to your pet’s usual routine to reduce stress. I provide regular check-ins, photos, and updates so you always know your pet is in good hands. Whether it’s a dog who needs long walks or a shy cat who prefers a quiet spot, I adapt to their needs and make sure they feel secure and cared for every step of the way.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was little, and it’s something I truly enjoy and doesn't feel like a job whatsoever. Over the years, my family has trusted me to feed, bathe, and care for their pets, and I currently have a friendly cat of my own. I treat every pet like family, with patience, attention, and genuine care. Whether it’s energetic playtime or calm, quiet moments, I adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

I live in a house with a fenced yard to play in, including a sweet cat if clients prefer to board in my house. I can also care for pets in the comfort of their home if provided!
