About: I have cared for many animals throughout my personal & professional life. I have experience from working at an animal shelter where I gained extensive knowledge on a variety of different dogs & cats. I am good with reactive dogs, escape artists, special needs (behavioral & medical), & this goes for cats as well. I have cared for animals newborn to senior & am familiar with giving medication if necessary. Friends & family rely on me to care for their babies whenever they need help. I love animals of any breed or size. I currently have a 75 lb catahoula, a 75 lb catahoula/pyrenees mix, & three cats ( two of which have only three legs). My schedule is flexible but I do work so just let me know when I am needed & we can work it out. I unfortunately cannot offer boarding in my own home due to my current dogs being reactive towards others ( recent rescues). I live minutes away from several parks & walking trails. I love hiking so I also know many different hiking trails varying in distance & popularity. I am familiar with crate training & can cater to any training that is currently used so as not to interrupt what is being learned.

About: I am very sweet and gentle to many animals, but I also love keeping them active by taking them on walks and playing with them!! I have school every week day, but I get out early enough to be able to visit, walk, watch, and take care of any dogs or cats. I take my dog on walks, cuddle with her, play with her, and love her to death! I love taking her to the dog park as well near my house. When I have pet sat in the past, I value taking the dog on walks and cuddling with them too!

About: I have had cats my whole life. My mom is a breeder and I rescue animals. I have been in the Vet field for almost 6 years which means when something is wrong with your pet I can tell. Even little things, I have special needs dogs at home that require meds as well a certain positioning for eating. I’m patient and caring and always have treats on hand.

“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Patricia! She truly went above and beyond while caring for our dogs. When one of our pups got sick, she didn’t just notify us—she actually cooked him rice to help his stomach and even went to her own home to bring back a rug cleaning machine to clean the areas where he had diarrhea. Her kindness and initiative meant the world to us. Her communication was outstanding—we received frequent updates and adorable pictures from all their walks, which really put our hearts at ease and allowed us to fully enjoy our getaway without worry. Patricia is caring, responsible, and treats pets as if they were her own. We would recommend her without hesitation and will absolutely book her again in a heartbeat!”

About: I’ve had all pets from, kittens, puppies, geckos, chameleons, fish, and birds! I love spending time with animals and Id love to spend time with/ take care of yours! 🤍 I have full time availability as a SAHM and would like to devote my time to helping pet owners in the Gainesville and the surrounding areas, to give their fur babies the love and attention they deserve while you take care of your priorities! I have grown up around many animals from kittens, to dogs, to even horses and have been taught the proper way to approach and handle dogs who may be shy, or have a temperament towards new people. I am also very cautious with the temps outside when walking dogs to insure their paws are not burned in the or picking up mud with the unpredictable GA weather. Your babies would we treated as one of my own 🫶🏼

About: I am passionate about taking proper care of your pets and looking out for their needs such as exercising them and of course, belly rubs! I am totally flexible. I do not have any sort of other job or responsibilities. However, I do ask for at least one week notice. I specialize in doing overnight stays in your home as I do not have any pets of my own. No husband no kids, no grandkids. So I am flexible to spend a lot of time with your pets while you are gone. If you prefer, I can board your dogs in my home. I have a fenced in yard and we exercise every morning on a walk or an outing in a peaceful,safe and quiet country setting. I never have more than 4-5 dogs at a time, so everyone gets lots of individualized attention.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have over 5 years of hands-on pet care experience, including dog walking, drop-in visits, overnight stays, feeding, playtime, and general care for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Friends, neighbors, and families have trusted me to care for their pets while they’re away because I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely love animals. I also currently have a golden retriever of my own, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, exercise, and making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I am currently a a graduate student in a nurse anesthesia program and have a very flexible schedule because most of my learning is online for the time being. I am open to weekends also and mainly have classes earlier in the day but can work around my schedule. I always try to keep pets comfortable by sticking to their normal routine as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and attention, and feel safe while their owners are away. I’m very attentive to behavior changes, cleanliness, and making sure pets get lots of playtime, walks, and affection.

About: I have always loved animals. They brighten up my day! When I was a little girl, I started to do a lot of pet sitting over the summer for animals such as dogs, cats, and rabbits, and also started walking dogs in my neighborhood for people when they were out for a long time or not able to make it back for the night. I have done volunteer work with dogs and cats, and I worked one summer at a horse stable, which was really fun! I work at Kroger now, but I miss working with animals. I’ve decided to give Rover a shot so I can meet a lot more pups and kittens this summer! Animals bring a joy to my heart and I’m excited to start my journey as a Rover pet sitter! ???

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
