“Bethany is an excellent care giver! She is incredibly helpful and communicative. It’s as if a friend or neighbor is carrying for our dog and our home.”

“Madeline was wonderful! She was very attentive, followed all of our instructions carefully, and kept us updated with pictures every visit, which made us feel very comfortable being away from our boys. We’ll definitely be booking with her again whenever we need a pet sitter. We highly recommend her!”

About: What sets me apart is the personal care and attention I give every pet. I take time to learn each animal’s personality, routine, and needs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I own a small business so I am able to make my own schedule if it’s at least a month out. If I do have events then I’ll be gone 4-6 hours max. Other than that I will try to be with your animals as much as possible. Every pet in my care is treated like family, with constant attention to their comfort and well-being. I create a safe, loving space where pets can relax, play, and feel at home while you’re away.

“Julie was AMAZING with my dog!! I booked her for drop in visits with my 2 year old lab mix and she was incredible with him. She was super communicative throughout the entire process from the meet and greet through the actual visits. And she took lots of adorable pictures of my pup!! Julie was attentive with the details I left about him and made sure to give him lots of love throughout her visits. I’d recommend her to literally anyone who is looking for a sitter!!”

“Thank you Thomas for taking such good care of our girls!”

About: We provide a second family while you’re away. We take ONE furfamily at a time. Two or three families if all pups are familiar before their stay. Meet and greet preferred. Copy of up to date shots required. We’re happy to provide ours upon request. I am home all day minus taking my son to and from school and activities, never gone more than a few hours. I work from home as a registered nurse. My shifts are 2-4 hrs at a time so there is plenty of time to spoil and provide one on one time to make it feel like home. Dogs are NOT crated unless necessary or preferred by you. I have a few crates, depending on size. Preference is one the dog is already familiar with. Homemade frozen treats, fruits, and vegetables provided, please specify if you prefer no treats. You’re welcome to bring your own. We have a huge back yard (.5acre) and inside space available for those rainy days. When booking your stay please be aware paws get dirty, depending on your pets energy level we play and run hard! We rinse paws but do not provide baths. Drop off on first day before noon and pick up on the last day after noon will accrue half day charge. Plenty of long term, local references! Daily photo updates between 4-8pm, a visual day of the fur vacation. Check out our pictures to see our sleepover friends and fun! We've been lucky enough to have 5-6 frequent clients. Sadly some have passed or are in their elderly years where they're parents aren't traveling as much. Hoping to create some new clientele. If you've read this far, wow, you're awesome! Thank you ❤️😉 We love dogs and treat them like family. My boys can be loud and have little to no manners when it comes to barking so please excuse them when you arrive (even if they know you). They are my children and your dogs will be too. Their stay will be “just like home” to include going in and out 25 times a day 😉. To avoid accidents, I will not feed our animals together. My dogs are not aggressive in any way but being animals I believe it best to always be cautious. We live on a half acre with fenced in yard. All dogs are free roaming all day, they have their own gated off space when we leave. We have lots of space for play inside and out and plenty of places to rest in between.

“Cody and Rachel always take good care of our kitty when we are away. We appreciate that they came by for the drop-in visit even in stormy weather.”

“Lisa was very quick to respond and did a great job taking care of my dog. She arrived on time and had no problem taking Sadie on a walk. Lisa was great and I would recommend to anyone looking for a Rover in her area”

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 8 years and have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. I recently lost my own dog after 8 wonderful years together, so I truly understand how important it is to trust someone caring for your pet. I’ve dog sat for multiple families and am comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, administering medications, potty training, feeding routines, walks, playtime, and giving pets lots of love and attention while their owners are away. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely love being around animals. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re part of my own family. I’m currently a nursing student, so my schedule can vary slightly week to week, but I do my best to stay flexible and communicate clearly with pet owners. I’m available for walks, pet sitting, and check-ins throughout the week whenever my schedule allows. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely love spending time with animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for pets. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I’m experienced with administering medications, caring for senior dogs, and handling puppies that may need extra patience or potty training support. I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, plenty of attention, and safe walks and playtime. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pet, and I’ll always treat them with the same love and care I would want for my own animals.

About: I am independently insured for pet walking and sitting. Growing up in Tennessee, my family had a running total of 10 cats and 2 dogs. We had kittens, strays, and elderly pets. All of our cats were shorthaired, but my grandmother had a longhaired cat. I briefly took care of another longhaired cat that a friend found in his neighborhood. He couldn’t keep it and knew I had experience with cats, so he called me and I took it in until we found its owner. The dogs I grew up with were very different. We got Hook, our black labrador retriever, from a breeder. He came with a pedigree and everything. Years later, in his old age, a corgi mix showed up at our house. We weren’t able to find her owners and we ended up keeping her. I credit her with keeping Hook alive a little longer. I know how much of a difference our animals can make. I have done petsitting in the client’s home and in my own home with pets, often with multiple animals at one time. I even kept three guinea pigs for about a week in December 2023. In Tennessee, I worked as a volunteer at a local animal shelter, reading to cats and dogs through a program designed to help socialize the animals. I am unable to pet sit animals in my current apartment, and would treat it as a privilege to be let in your home in any capacity. My current job is a flexible, part time, remote job that I can do from anywhere. This leaves me with a lot of availability for your pet! I am patient with animals and I never take my emotions out on them. There are times where I have had to be firm with animals, of course, (can you imagine keeping 6 cats off the counters? Or keeping our corgi mix from nipping at our black lab while she tried to herd him outside?), but I’ve never been mean or lost my temper with an animal, and our corgi was a Mess™. I can clean traditional litterboxes and have familiarity with some higher-tech ones. I understand body language cues from both dogs and cats. As the daughter of a former landlord, I understand the frustration that comes with letting someone in your home just for them to take advantage of you. Therefore, you can be certain I will maintain the utmost respect for your belongings, your home, and your pet.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and my own dog, Ferg, is truly family. He has taught me just how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pet when you can’t be there. I know how much our pets mean to us, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and attention that I give Ferg. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playing fetch, exploring outside, or curling up on the couch for cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to following your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, medications (if needed), and any special instructions. Communication is a priority for me, so I’ll send regular updates and photos to give you peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet is happy, comfortable, and loved—because they deserve to be treated like family, just as Ferg is to me. I work a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable care, and I intentionally plan my day around the pets I’m caring for. I have time for walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of love and attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any other special care your pet requires. I know pets are often most comfortable in their own environment, so I take the time to make them feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you’re away. I’ll also treat your home with the utmost respect by keeping it clean and secure, bringing in packages if requested, watering plants, and providing regular photo and message updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

“Thank you, Cheryl!! Everything was Purrfect when we returned from Holiday. Biggie and Simon appreciate all the attention they received from you. You’re Wonderful.! 💝”

About: I have had pets all my life. Mainly dogs. I have trained some of my personal pets in the past. I also love seeing animals personalities, and learning to work with them from there. I work 8a-4p Tuesday - Friday, and some Mondays (same hours). I never work weekends or evenings. I have an hour for lunch on the days I work, so I am able to run by for a potty break if needed. I have a big fenced in backyard just waiting for your dog to come roam! I do not currently have any pets, so I do not have a cage, water bowl, leash, etc. I live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for walks.

About: I have hands-on experience from interning at a veterinarian clinic and working for a year with a local pet care company similar to Rover. As a pet owner myself (two labs and a tabby cat!), I know how to handle walks, feeding, bathing, medications, and more. Your pet will be in caring and capable hands! 🐾🫶🏼 Between classes and work, Tuesdays, and weekends work best for me! Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday I am pretty busy, but am able to do early mornings and evenings those days! I provide attentive, personalized care by ensuring pets are fed, walked, and given plenty of affection. I follow routines, administer medications if needed, and maintain a safe, comfortable environment in both my home and clients’ homes.

“Shelby was great with my energetic Border Collie! She was dependable and updated me every step along the way. I’d leave 6 stars if I could.”

About: I'm certified in dog training and behavior from CATCH Canine Trainers Academy - Little Falls, NJ and A+ Pet Services - NYC. I was a professional dog walker/sitter for A+ for over 10 years, and have been volunteering for local animal shelters and rescues as a walker and behaviorist in NY and TN for 15 years. I have over a decade of experience working with senior and special needs pets, too. I'm a published author, so my schedule is flexible. My Saturdays can be busy - so I may sometimes need more advanced notice - but the rest of the week I am available at a moment's notice. I was a dog-mommy for almost a decade. After Dawg passed, I started working with animal shelters, and every pup I worked with became one of my extended pack, and I treated and interacted with them the same way I would've my own fur-baby.

About: I am comfortable taking care of most animals. I have experience as a zookeeper, vet assistant, and kennel tech. I have over 15 years experience working with animals including exotics, puppies/kittens, elderly, special needs/care, medication. I have a passion for caring for all animals. I currently work full time and am looking to supplement my income taking care of others pet care needs. I would be available before and after my scheduled shifts and on my weekends (which is usually weekdays). I will consult with the owners about what is wanted and ask about any specific needs. I always walk dogs on leashes. And will always be respectful of their property and leave the home in the same or better condition as I arrived. I am diligent about making sure the pets are safe and the home is secured before leaving.
