“Wei came to my home to care for my 2 cats. She was attentive and sweet and my cats felt comfortable with her. She also made sure they had adequate water and food, and she diligently cleaned their litter boxes. I am thankful for her help!”

About: Hello! I’m Allyson, and I have taken care of dogs of every kind for several years. This includes home visits, playing with your dog, as well as bathing, and feeding. I have experience with both larger and smaller dogs. I am a teacher, I am up very early to check on your dog if need be, or in the afternoon through evening for some undivided attention for your pet. I am comfortable with pet parents using security systems/cameras to watch me lovingly care for their fur babies. Please tell me what will make your pet most comfortable during my time with them!
About: Hi, I'm Lauren! I've always had a genuine love for animals and grew up caring for my own dog of many years. I've been around animals all my life, including the pets of friends, family, and neighbors, and I've continued gaining experience caring for animals ever since. That includes multi-day stays with my uncle's dog as well as multiple sitting sessions for my mother's co-worker's dog. I'm comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and providing attentive, compassionate care while respecting each animal's individual boundaries and personality. As a lifelong animal lover, I bring patience, reliability, and authentic affection to every visit. I want to provide that care for you and your family, with no stress, so you can always know your pet is in good hands. I look forward to giving your pet the same care, attention, and love I would want for my own! I'm a recent nursing graduate and licensed RN, and I'm currently building my nursing career while offering pet care as a way to stay active and do something I truly enjoy. I have a flexible schedule with plenty of availability, so I can give your pet consistent, attentive care and respond efficiently to your needs! I provide care in my clients' homes, where pets are most comfortable and stay on their usual routine. During each visit, I take care of your pet's basic needs, including feeding, fresh water, walks, and playtime, and I give plenty of attention and affection. I pay close attention to each pet's comfort and personality and adjust my care to whatever they need, so they feel safe and relaxed while you're away!
“Alexis is wonderful!!!! Trustworthy, friendly, and amazing with animals! Alexis watched my kitties when I was away in Europe for a week and I was completely at peace knowing she was watching my fur babies. She was thoughtful and mindful of what my cats needed and kept me updated with each visit with adorable photos! She also took wonderful care of my home and cleaned up the areas around the cat litter. Anyone would be lucky to have Alexis watch their animals. I will definitely be using her again! Thank you Alexis 🤍”

About: I've cared for both dogs and cats my whole life-- I've never lived without a pet! I also have experience as a volunteer caretaker through my local animal shelter, and a deep passion for animal welfare and happiness. I work part-time and am a part-time student, so please check my calendar for availability. I have class from 4-9pm Tuesday & Wednesday and my work schedule is typically the day shift on Monday and Thursday. Again, if there are any deviances, I will mark them on the calendar! I'm happy to let your pet set the pace-- if they're a cuddle bug, I'll give them snuggles, and if they need some time to warm up, I'll sit quietly while they get used to me. If your puppy feels the need for speed, I'll take him on a sprightly jog, but if your senior prefers to take the scenic route, we can stop and sniff every tree. I'll listen to your instructions and preferences and theirs.
“Alec was amazing with my girl! He is so kind and extremely responsive, making me and my fur baby feel comfortable and confident! I can’t say enough great things about him!”

“Ari provides an exceptional dog walking service that I wholeheartedly recommend. His reliability, caring approach, and commitment to safety makes him stand out. With excellent communication and professionalism, he ensures peace of mind for me and Coby. 10/10 would recommend.”

“We knew Valerie from our days of volunteering at Pets4Luv, so we were comfortable and confident our furbabies would be in great care while we were away since we know how much she loves them all!. Valerie took great care of our Max and Lexi - she was prompt, she communicated with us about how they were doing and sent us pictures too! Not only did she feed them but she also played with them and gave them treats. I would definitely ask Valerie to take care of them again!”

About: I do volunteer at dog rescue all the time, that’s how I met our baby boy ROCCO. We’ve been together for 9 years and another 9 years more for sure ☑️ I am full time dog’s burtler. Currently we have 17 yr old mixed poodle gentlman at home. Taking him out for every 2 hours for potty. We go to oakland lake and Crocheron park everyday ! House locates on ground floor in the building + back yard, 1,000 sqft big enough for up to 3 dogs ( including mr.Rocco ) we have many cushions and beds. Of course many many toys and activities!!
About: Hi! My name is Jennifer. I am 33 years old . I majored in business. I am a fun, responsible, caring, loving person. I love animals more than anything! I will take care your fur baby, as if they were my own! I have been taking care of pets since 2016. I have also saved more than a dozen pets who roam the streets and have nowhere to go. Even the aggressive ones. Medically- I know animal CPR. I know how to give a pet medication. I have taken care of very elderly dogs, handicapped dogs. Deaf or blind. there are pets who are both deaf & blind and I am extra on top of them. I am used to very energetic dogs! So, that is not an issue. I have dealt with very shy & scares dogs as well. Who leaves my home with a brand new personality! I have a big & fenced backyard. It is locked on top and boarded on the bottom. No way in, no way out! If you currently crate training your pet, I can easily continue to crate train here. Lastly, if your pet is under my care they will be as safe as they can be! You will receive updates and photos throughout the day. I will follow the same schedule that they have at home, with me! :) I work from home 24/7. I am available all day to tend to your pet. I am available any time unless I am booked. :) I will always be with your pet at all times. They will never leave my side. Safety takes a HUGE ROLE in my services. My backyard is fully fenced in. Boarded from the bottom, locked on top. No way in, no way out. My backyard/home is a very safe environment for any pet that comes & goes.

About: I have been around dogs for most of my life, having owned two dogs from ages 6-20, and I have since gained hands-on experience caring for pets with a wide range of personalities, ages and needs. I’ve pet sat for both cats and dogs, including caring for four cats and two dogs at once, managing litter boxes, wet and dry food routines, playtime and plenty of attention and affection. I also have experience administering oral medications and eye drops to dogs. One experience especially that sets me apart is caring for a Catahoula Leopard dog who was paralyzed in her hind legs, which involved expressing her bladder and assisting with her mobility alongside caring for another dog in the home. I’m comfortable with puppies as well, having provided drop-in care for a golden retriever at both 3 months and 6 months old, as well as extended dog and house sitting for a 2-year old golden retriever. Across my pet-sitting experience, I’ve provided regular walks, baths, light grooming, feeding, playtime and lots of one-on-one attention. I understand every pet has their own routine, personality, and level of care, and I’m comfortable providing everything from my everyday companionship to more hands-on care for pets with special needs. My current schedule is very flexible, as I am studying full-time for the MCAT and create my own study schedule each week. I attend MCAT prep classes on Sunday and Tuesday evenings, but outside of those times, I can easily plan my studying around your pet’s needs. This gives me flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and extended care throughout the week. I’m happy to work with each pet owner to maintain the routine that works best for their pet! I understand that trusting someone with both your pet and your home is a big responsibility. I have experience house sitting and pet sitting for many families, and I always treat each home with the same care and respect I would want someone to show my own. I carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding your pet’s routine, safety, feeding, medications, and household needs. My only request is to be shown where basic cleaning supplies are kept (accidents happen, and that’s completely normal!). I want you to come home to a space that is just as clean, if not cleaner, than when you left it, and most importantly, to a pet who has been safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Nick has been a delight! Our Ginger absolutely adores him! He keeps us updated regarding his visit with our pup. Nick is easy to get in touch with and we trust him with our girl. Looking forward to more visits from Nick in the future!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Glen Head
Incredible service! Jessica is everything you want when getting someone to look after your dog! She’s thoughtful and kind and really gave great attention and care to our Kiedis who gets a little down when we have to leave town! Couldn’t ask for better help and highly recommend especially if you have an older dog or a dog that needs a like extra attention!

Kaylee watched our 2 large shepherds and she was fantastic. Our dogs are very hyper dogs and both anxious in their own ways so we never feel the best leaving them with new people but Kaylee took lots of photos, our dogs were super happy and we felt so confident leaving them in her care. We will definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a loving sitter for your fur babies!
