“Jenna took amazing care of my two cats while I was away! She kept me updated and made sure they were happy and comfortable. On top of that, she handled an unexpected broken key fob situation without any stress and kept everything running smoothly. I really appreciated her kindness and reliability - would absolutely book her again!”
“Alexis was wonderful with my dog and cat. She met them a week before. My dog instantly got along with her. Alexis has a very kind and caring aura to her that my pets picked up on and were comfortable with her right away. My husband and I will be reaching out to her for any future trips.”

About: I’ve raised my own dog since he was a puppy, so I know exactly what dogs need at every stage. From early morning walks to keeping them entertained and fed, it’s just part of my daily routine. I didn’t just own a dog I grew up with him. Your dog will get the same attention and care I give mine every single day. Dogs get a morning walk around 10–10:30am, then they’re free to relax in the living room or hang out in the fenced backyard. Once it cools down in the evening I take them out again around 6–7pm. During the day they have access to the backyard for potty breaks whenever they need it. Before bed there’s one last walk around 11–11:30pm so they’re settled for the night. I have a fenced backyard so dogs can roam and play safely without any worry. I own a friendly dog myself so your pup will have a buddy to hang out with. We’re in a house so there’s plenty of space to move around and get comfortable. Dogs are welcome on the furniture I want them to feel at home, not like they’re in a strange place.
About: *DOGS MUST BE GOOD WITH OTHER DOGS AND CATS* (I have THREE CATS and A DOG!!) My times for daycare are 8 am - 6 pm ONLY! (Mon-Fri) if outside this range, I will discuss additional payment. I have had dogs since I was a child. I’ve always had a love and care for any animal no matter the breed or size. During college, I worked at a vet as a daycare kennel assistant where I gained knowledge on the care of dogs. I know how to walk dogs, bathe them, cut their nails, etc. I work from home so I’m able to look over your fur baby! My boyfriend helps me from time to time and will help me look after any animal I have. I do go to the gym every so often so your dog needs to be able to be by themselves at least 1 hour, either crate trained or is able to be out without scratching or destroying anything. I have a fenced yard and live in a dog friendly neighborhood. I have a border collie mix and 3 cats in my house who are used to being around other dogs and mostly keep to themselves! If needed, my cats are able to be separated from your fur baby but I prefer friendly dogs!
About: I've been caring for pets professionally for over 10 years. I'm not just a caregiver; I'm a devoted pet parent myself. My own fur babies are like my children, and I treat every pet I care for with the same love, attention, and respect. I work full time but with a very flexible schedule. I work from home & occasionally go into the city. I’m comfortable with all age groups Whether it's daily walks, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping your pet company while you're away, I bring patience, experience, and genuine affection to every visit. I understand how important it is to feel your pet is in good hands--and that's exactly what I strive to provide.
“Oleg was nothing short of incredible. My wife and I were traveling for our wedding and we hadn't used Rover before. Oleg put any nerves we had about leaving our pets alone at ease. He was communicative, caring, and you could tell he really enjoyed playing with the cats. He stayed later than required in all three visits and blew up our phones with pictures and videos. I highly recommend Oleg and would definitely book him again.”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every pet. I truly treat animals like family, and I know how important it is for pet parents to feel comfortable and updated while they’re away. I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and relaxed in their normal routine. I’m dependable, communicative, and pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs — whether that means extra playtime for energetic dogs, patience with shy or anxious pets, or a slower pace and gentle care for senior dogs. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine and something I genuinely enjoy making time for. I’m used to planning my days around feeding schedules, walks, check-ins, and giving pets the attention and consistency they need. I care for animals every day, including feeding and looking after stray cats in my area, so caring for pets feels very natural to me and is something I’m committed to year-round. I enjoy being active, spending time outdoors, and giving pets companionship, exercise, and comfort while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and sleep schedules closely so pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship — not just the basics. I also keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so they always know how their pet is doing. For dogs, I focus on safe walks, play, bathroom breaks, and making sure they get enough activity and affection based on their energy level and personality. For cats, I understand the importance of patience and routine, especially with shy or anxious cats, and I make sure litter boxes, feeding areas, and water stay clean and fresh. I’m attentive to pets’ behavior and comfort and will always let owners know right away if something seems unusual. My goal is for pets to feel safe, loved, and relaxed while their owners are away. 🐾
About: I’ve always been around dogs since I was little. Always have had a dog or dogs in the family. My children love dogs as well. Can’t wait to meet you and your pup! I currently work from home! I have a flexible schedule myself so I am able to help out with what fits your schedule and time! I have a fenced yard. I have one dog named Chianti. She is a black lab and a working dog. She is super calm, friendly and playful. Great with other dogs.
About: I have been a dog lover for all my life and realize they require lots of love and attention each day. I will treat your dog as if he/she were my own so you never have to worry while you're away. If your dog is more energetic and prefers running instead of walks, then I will certainly do that. Or, if your dog needs to go at a slower pace, I can do that too. I have experience with puppies all the way up to senior dogs and can administer pills and/or oral supplements. My availability is very flexible and I will try to make time even if it is short notice. I am very responsible so you can definitely count on me to keep your furry friend happy and safe when you're unable to be there with them. If you have any questions at all, please do not hesitate to send a message or give me a call. Thank you!

Fresh Kills pet parents share their Rover experiences
Razan did a great job during her drop-in visit with Raven and Roman. She was attentive, reliable, and made sure both cats were well cared for while I was at work. Raven, who can sometimes be cautious with new people, was comfortable with her, and Roman received plenty of attention and playtime. I appreciated the updates and photos, and it gave me peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. I would happily book Razan again.
Excellent experience with Lin. She went above and beyond to make sure our cats had everything they needed. Communicating with every visit with pictures and details, letting us know the exact situation, was very helpful to keep us reassured everything was fine.
This is the second time Taylor has taken care of my 5 cats. She was great with them and they can sometimes be handful. One is on a special diet and others need to be monitored as they eat. She followed all instructions and sent great pictures. I would definitely trust her with my furbabies again.
Pinky was absolutely amazing watching my dog Chai during my wedding weekend. She went above and beyond to make sure Chai was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were busy enjoying our day. Pinky kept me updated with photos and messages. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter during such an important weekend. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, loving, and responsible.
Stacy was absolutely wonderful! She truly cared for my cats and spent quality time with them. Both of my cats warmed up to her quickly, which says a lot about her gentle and personable approach. She went above and beyond in making sure they were comfortable and happy. I could not recommend her more. highly recommend Stacy to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet care!
Sandra was simply amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure our cat was well cared for while we were away. Not only was our kitty fed on time, but Sandra also made sure she got plenty of playtime and attention, keeping her routine just as if we were home. We felt completely at ease knowing our fur baby was in such loving hands. We’ll definitely book Sandra again for our next trip!
