1. Sallie K.

“Sallie was amazing! We are finally able to travel with the peace of mind that our two dogs will be well cared for. I have a German Shepard who does not trust strangers easily but she opened up to Sallie after the first few visits. I loved all the images and the updates she provided after every visit. We will definitely book more visits with Sallie!”

6. Taylor & Kyle D.

“Taylor was so unbelievably sweet. She cared for my cats so well and I was so far away from them and I could feel how loved they were when she was with them. She was very trustworthy. I didn’t even keep my ring camera up and she came to my house because when I met her, I could just tell she was trustworthy, thank you Taylor. I am so happy that I found you on Rover. It meant the world to me. Thank you❤️”

16. Amanda W.
About: Hi, I’m Amanda! A teacher and lifelong dog lover who’s ready to help care for your pets like they’re my own! I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and in-home overnight stays for dogs who just want some company, playtime, or a break in their routine while you’re away. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and flexible with scheduling—perfect for busy families or last-minute plans. I’m a middle school teacher during the school year, but my summers are wide open for pet care. I’ve had dogs all my life, and my current pups love a good dance party in the kitchen. Whether your dog is shy, playful, or somewhere in between, I’ll follow your routines closely to make sure they’re happy, safe, and loved. Let me know how I can help give you peace of mind—I’d love to meet your furry family! I am a teacher and available for drop ins before and after school. During summer and school breaks my schedule is wide open! My schedule is pretty flexible overall! I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and safe. For drop-ins and overnight stays, I stick closely to your routines—feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any meds or special care your pet needs. I aim to keep things calm and consistent so your pet stays happy and stress-free while you’re away.

18. Lexi B.
About: Through my own dog, bear, I have developed a care and compassion for animals. Animals are my passion, and I plan to pursue this passion in marine biology after my undergraduate at JcTc to preserve the biodiversity of our planet. I am a graduate cum laude from high school, I have a total flexibility on weekdays, before 2:00pm on Fridays, and my weekends are open. I have a fenced in backyard, my pet has regular vet visits, I am responsible for insuring my dog the proper amount of nutrition each day. I understand the importance of daily walks, and use a leash at all times.


19. Mary R.
“She’s always great to play with my dogs and make sure they get attention and affection. Same with my cats. She’s patient with them when they’re skiddish and give them space. Would highly recommend to anyone watching animals.”


20. Meredith H.

“Meredith was great with our furry family members! She took great care of our two elderly dogs while we were away on vacation, and was super easy to communicate with. Would definitely recommend her services and will certainly be booking her again!”
