“Carrianne was able to help us with a last minute walk for our dog. She took the time to stop by the day before to meet him. We appreciated the help and would book her again if the chance comes up!”


About: I have experience working with a wide range of different breed and sizes of dogs. I worked at a doggie daycare and it was an absolute joy. I have taken care of dogs since I was young. Been surrounded by pets my whole life! From dogs, cats, snakes, fish, hamsters, rabbits ect. People trusted me from a young age with their pets because they naturally floated towards me. From small dogs to big ones. I have taken care of family dogs and friends of family pets. I always volunteered to do anything that involved animals. Not only do I currently handle dogs as my job but I also do baths! I took care of horses and other farm animals down in SC when I would visit family. My family are know to have ranches so animals have been a keen part of my life I'm taking a break from my part-time at a doggy daycare so I got plenty of hours for you dogs needs! I'm available all week for majority of day. I'm able to follow regular routines if informed by my clients in order to minimize confusion and be more comforting for the pets. When it comes to my client's medications for their dogs, I am punctual with how it's administered to their dog. If given permission, I'd bring treats and have them do fun little tricks to build trust between the pets so I'm not just a stranger

About: For the last five years, I have worked at zoos, shelters, and sanctuaries with a variety of animals! In the past I have owned reptiles, and I currently own one dog and three cats. Additionally, I usually have at least one foster animal in my care at all times. I understand that each animal is an individual and will adjust my behavior accordingly. I am happy to be active if your dog is a runner, or a couch potato if they're more of a snuggler! I have experience providing medication and special diets. I am currently working with my dog to decrease his reactivity and my cats on harness training! I am more than happy to do any enrichment or training you request with your furry friend! I am currently between jobs and have few set commitments. This allows me to be extremely flexible in my schedule for all your pet care needs! I ensure that in addition to basic necessities, my animals are given physical and mental enrichment each day, whether it's a training session with my dog or a puzzle feeder for the cats. I am more than happy to do the same for your pets!

About: welcome! 🔔 please confirm you have read my profile entirely when sending your booking request 🔔 Dogs have been apart of my life for over 25 years. I learned body language, how to care for them, and how to be patient and communicate with them from my amazing Grandfather. They truly bring me joy! I treat each pup as if they’re my own during our time together. 🐾 I will do everything I can to accommodate your pup’s needs & your desires. Whether it’s walks vs runs in the yard, administering medication, or preparing food, if I’m able to do it consider it done! As a pet parent, I know how stressful it can be to find reliable care. With that in mind, I strive to provide the BEST care for your dog the first time in order to lighten your load; giving you the peace of mind knowing your fur baby is in excellent hands. 🐶 I no longer work remotely, so I’m not available for drop ins, walks, or daycare M - Th prior to 5PM. I am willing to board throughout the week, but please note your pup will be home alone for about 11 hours. Fri-Sun, I am available all hours. 🚨 MEET & GREETS ARE MANDATORY FOR ALL SERVICES 🚨 Daycare & Boarding: - Please be mindful that I do have a dog of my own. If you know your dog does not do well with other dogs, please do not request a boarding or daycare. I am open to doing daycare in your home for the pups that prefer to be alone. request house sitting & I will adjust the rate! - my home is best suited for the chill guys and gals. lots of soothing music, lounging, & cuddles 💓. Honey Bun is very reserved inside & gets stressed around high energy dogs. To keep all involved happy & safe, please do not book daycare or boarding if your dog is an energizer bunny. I will be glad to drop in, walk, or do daycare in your home though! 😃 - I have a secured, fenced in yard. I am not willing to take any dog to the dog park. Both the front and back doors have additional doors down the stairs, so the chance of an escape is very close to zero! - I crate all dogs when I’m leaving the home, including Honey B even though she typically is not crated. in special situations, I’m okay leaving your dog to roam a designated area, but that is rare and will be discussed prior to the booking. - I do not have any guests while your dog is in my care. Drop Ins/Walks/House Sitting: - I ask that no other humans are in your home when I come over for drop ins, walks, or housesitting unless previously discussed. - Please book a drop in if care outside of walking is needed. - Please assure all animals that need care are listed individually on your profile. I love surprises, but not when it comes to this! - When coming into your home, I will always leave it just as I found it. I will only enter authorized areas as necessary to care for your pet(s). Please assure that all supplies are provided. 🐾 - We will discuss specific schedules for each housit. Some people prefer longer day time care with no overnight, or moderate daytime care + nights. We will workout the perfect schedule for you, your pup, and me 😊. I am NOT available for constant care (24 hours) as I will need to check in with my own dog & maintain my personal life with errands + self care.

“Genesis is everything you’d want in someone taking care of your pet! She was amazing with my senior dog and was a fantastic communicator too! I would highly recommend her services to anyone and will definitely be seeing her again soon! Thanks Genesis :)”


“This was my first booking with Travis and I would definitely book him again. We used him to walk our 65 lb golden retriever and to feed a stray cat that visits our house. He provides more than one photo and responds quickly. We had an initial visit and it was very obvious that he loves both cats and dogs and that our pets would be in reliable and experienced hands.”


“Nothing but great things to say about Jackie! She was able to walk Jenko on a last minute request. Have used her on multiple occasions since. Great communication and follow up. Definitely recommended her for any dog walking needs”


About: I have grown up taking care of dogs and was lucky enough to be a mom to a sweet senior dog for 3 years. Currently I have two adopted cats who are the sweetest girls! I would love to care for your pet(s) and make them feel extra loved and safe while you’re away 🥰 I am available most days after work and most weekends to care for your dog or cat. I hope to make them feel comfortable and loved while you’re away! I will be able to feed your pet, practice any tricks that they know, and play with them. It’s important to me to create a positive relationship with them so they feel comfortable.

About: I have been around multiple cats, birds, and large dogs my whole life. I have years of experience taking care of all 3 types of animals due to this, along with the true love and passion I carry for all living creatures. I find taking my dogs on long walks not only therapeutic for myself, but for them as well. And who can resist cat love and cuddles! I treat my pets as my children, so it is more of myself fitting into their routine. My fur baby is named Ralph Waldo Picklechips, and he gets fed breakfast every morning at 7am and dinner at 8pm without fail. They have no problem letting me know if I am a little late. Every day is play day as research has fully shown that engaging with your animal daily is not just beneficial for them physically, but mentally as well. I understand that every home and animal owner has a different set of rules for their furry one’s care. My animals are very loved and their care is reflected with this. All of my animals are up to date on all vaccinations and medical appointments. I even have a cat with urinary issues that requires special food. Even though the food is expensive, I am always willing to pay for it because it is what is best for his health. I will treat your animals with the same love and care that I give my own and am willing to go above and beyond to accommodate any pet owner’s specific rules or requests.

About: I've been taking care of my friends, family and neighbors dogs for as long as I can remember. Anything from daily to week long periods I have fed, walked, and cared for those animals, as well as overnight stays at either my home or theirs. Pet care fits extremely well into my routine, I am an online college student with a majority of free time and flexibility. I am typically up early and readily available most of the time. I remain especially cleanly in my own home and clients, making sure to clean/ tidy up after the pet as well as stay attentive to their needs. Another way I care for pets is by enjoying their company, talking, playing and interacting with them on walks and at home to make sure they are safe, happy and attended to.

About: My name is Tishara I am from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I have volunteered in multiple humane societies for a good year, working with all kinds of pets and learning about their behavior. I also was a past walker on rover 3 years ago as a side job when I attended high school. So, I’m Glad I am able to continue my journey with Rover, and will be able to walk different kinds of dogs or cats. I will treat your companion with the same amount of care as I would want my pet to be treated with. I am the ultimate dog lover and really enjoy spending time with them. I am confident that my skills and experience make me a great candidate for this position. I work a standard 9–5 schedule Monday through Friday, so I make sure to build pet care into my mornings, evenings, and weekends. Each morning, I start the day by feeding my pet, refreshing their water, and taking them out for a short walk or some quick playtime before work. After I get home, I dedicate time to a longer walk or more active engagement to make sure they get the exercise and attention they need. On weekends, I usually carve out extra time for grooming, vet appointments if needed, and longer outings like park visits or socialization. I stay consistent with feeding and cleaning schedules, and I always make sure my pet feels cared for even during my busiest weeks. When caring for pets in my home, I maintain a clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment. I follow a consistent routine that includes regular feeding, fresh water, exercise, playtime, and any special care based on the pet’s needs, such as medication or grooming. I also make sure the space is secure and enriched with toys, comfort items, and plenty of interaction to keep pets happy and stress-free.

About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life, dogs all through my childhood and cats all through my adult life. I have experience with caring for multiple animals and training as well. I have an open schedule at the moment, working on school online so I have a lot of free time. I love to walk dogs and sit at your home, as I have a shy kitten at home who doesn’t mix well with other animals. I love to make your animal comfortable, and I understand not everybody’s will warm up to you right away. I make effort to keep in contact with you to make sure your pet’s needs are all met.

About: I have been pet sitting and walking pets since I was 14, I have a huge love for all pets no matter the size or needs. i have been taking care of pets even in my own neighborhood. I'm currently in college and looking to make a little money doing something I love while staying on top of my studies as well as working another job. In my home I keep a very clean and quiet environment to avoid any stress on pets. if the pet needs to be on a particular schedule, I am quick to learn that schedule and abide by it from start to end. I have a backyard and live close to multiple pet friendly parks to accommodate for any exercise and bathroom concerns

About: I am a part time college student. I am going to school to get my ECE Degree. I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10 by volunteering at humane societies and having my own dogs. I also worked at a doggy daycares throughout Florida and Wisconsin. I love all dogs like they are my children. I would love to own my own rescue center but as of now I want to gain more experience with taking care of different breeds and just express my love of animals to the world. I hope that you choose me to be a temporary parent for your dog and that he or she is in perfect hands and will feel at home. Thank you. Hopefully we speak soon. I work third shift for Target and dog sit during the day. I make sure they are taken out three-four times and feed twice a day. I care for them like they are children. Go on walks, feed, cuddle. Run like crazy and crash from exhaustion. I also love getting to know the dogs personality.

Jasmine R.Star Sitter
“Hi! Jasmine is a really good friend of mine who I know that takes really good care of not just her pets but others as well. She has taken care of my pets when she has come over to my house a couple of times and has been able to not only treat them well but also care for them well too. I have two small shih tzu mix breed who are pretty loud with strangers and a pure breed, high energetic golden retriever, She has been able to handle all three of them pretty effortlessly which i was impressed yet also appreciative about. The two smaller dogs have warmed up to her almost immediately basically surrounding her and wanting her attention. As for the big fluffy boy, she calmed him down to the point where he looked like he was ready for a nap! I know she's also worked at a doggy daycare before and I can say that she has been great with caring for them all by herself as I've been a witness to it. She can handle more than 1 dog at a time and I know she'd be perfect for this job.”

She’s very protective and sensitive when it comes to dogs, she’s very responsible and honest about any and everything she do. She has an amazing dog that she constantly pours love into no matter what.”


Adrianna H.
“Adrianna is an amazing dog sitter. When I travel out of town, I call her every time to watch my babes(2 dogs) for me. My dogs can be a bit rambunctious(a border collie, age 2 & an old English, age 1) , but they are sweet dogs; she’s mastered being kind, and gaining their trust for her. I have no doubt in my mind that they are under some of the best care when I leave them with her. Highly recommend her as a sitter.”
Franklin Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Stephanie is awesome! He is extremely communicative throughout the entire process and truly goes above and beyond. It seems like he really cares about animals and he was great with taking care of my dog while I was out of town. If I could give him more stars, I would!

Genevieve was absolutely amazing with my dog (Malibu)! Malibu was shaking & scared from a stranger, but by the second visit Genevieve gained her trust and was able to take her outside. Genevieve was so sweet and patient with Malibu. She also communicated her progress each day with us to let us know how it went.
