About: I have over 16 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. I’ve supported dogs through daily care, feeding routines, long walks, playtime, medication administration, and providing comfort while their owners are away. I’m highly intuitive, attentive, and patient, making animals feel safe, calm, and cared for in their own environment. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I take pride in adapting my care to meet their individual needs. Whether it’s an energetic pup who loves adventure or a more sensitive pet who needs a gentle presence, I create a nurturing, reliable experience for both pets and their owners. I offer a flexible schedule and am available for mornings, afternoons, evenings, and overnight care. I’m open to weekday and weekend bookings and can accommodate consistent routines or last-minute requests when needed. I provide an attentive, respectful care in clients’ homes, following routines closely, maintaining a calm environment, and ensuring pets feel safe, loved, comfortable, and secure.

About: I’ve spent over a decade helping dogs and the people who love them build better relationships. My background includes professional dog training, developing an animal-assisted intervention program in a special education school, working with therapy dog teams, supporting rescue dogs, and educating handlers using positive reinforcement methods. As a former teacher, I bring patience, observation, and a thoughtful approach to every dog I care for. I believe every dog is an individual, and I take the time to understand their personality, communication style, comfort level, and what motivates them. Whether I’m taking your dog for a walk or stopping by for a visit, my focus is on more than just exercise. I pay close attention to body language and stress signals while providing enrichment, safe exploration, and positive interactions tailored to your dog’s needs. I love giving dogs the opportunity to sniff, explore, and enjoy the world while building confidence and trust. I have experience with puppies, adolescent dogs, senior dogs, and rescue dogs adjusting to new homes. I incorporate positive reinforcement principles, including concepts from Puppy Culture, to help puppies develop confidence, healthy habits, and a strong foundation. For dogs who enjoy adventure, I’m also happy to offer longer enrichment walks or easy hikes on dog-friendly trails (with owner approval). These outings are a great way for active dogs to get additional physical and mental enrichment while exploring safely at their own pace. As a dog owner myself, I understand that your dog is family. My goal is to provide the same thoughtful, reliable care, communication, and attention that I would want for my own dogs. I also have experience caring for cats, including living with a senior cat, and I understand that cats often need a different approach than dogs. I’m happy to provide thoughtful care while respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. Every visit/ walk, you will get text updates and photos. As a pet mom myself, it always puts me at ease to see a happy picture while in the care of a trusted sitter or walker. I’m looking forward to meeting your furry family members! Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions! ☺️ I currently offer walks/ hikes Mondays & Wednesdays: 9:45-12:30 Fridays: 9:45-11:15 I can do check-ins and occasional walks on scheduled weekends and evenings as well. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I believe every dog and cat is an individual, and I take the time to understand their routines, body language, personality, and needs before providing care. For walks and drop-in visits, I follow your instructions closely and maintain a safe, calm environment for your pet. I use thoughtful handling practices, pay attention to stress signals, and make decisions based on what is best for each individual animal. I always make sure they have fresh water upon return from our walk, and during check-in visits. As a longtime pet owner with dogs and a senior cat of my own, I understand how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family. I treat each home and pet with respect, provide reliable communication, and will always prioritize your pet’s well-being.

“Awesome pet sitter…reliable, thoughtful, and took some cute photos! Would definitely recommend, and will be using her again.”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets my entire life, and my family and friends look to me if they need me to dog sit (or pet sit) when they’re away or unavailable. I love animals, and so getting to take care of furry friends is an absolute treat!! I’m currently attending college, so monday and wednesday mornings im out of the house from 8-12. any other time, if given enough notice, i can be available for you and your pets! I live in a family home with my dog daisy, who is very friendly and about 14 years old now. She never fails to be entertained, and I love her with all my heart. I will do the same for your pets :)

“Julie was the absolute the best! She went beyond and so much for our Crumpet. Kept in good contact the whole time and was there for us on short notice and on the holiday. Julie is the best! Will definitely use her service again, and recommend her to everyone!”

About: I have personal experience with two dogs (Sunny and Roland) and a cat (Loki). Additionally, I have taken care of the pets of family and friends for years without complaint. I have worked as a dog sitter/walker for over 5 years now, and 3 of those on Rover. Unless my employment status changes, I am available 24/7 over summer, winter, fall, and spring breaks. My time is also very flexible and I don’t mind if I need to work at odd hours. I try to be as gentle and friendly as possible towards pets and will do more than the bare minimum when it comes to exercise and entertainment. I also have experience with cleaning up all kinds of potential messes.

“Sloane took very good care of our kitties while we were away. Highly recommend to others considering a caretaker for cats.”

“Tina was simply amazing and I cannot believe I found such a gem on this app. I have too much gratitude to express regarding her care of my life, my bay, my everything, a little chihuahua mix who I senior at 12 years old now with bad arthritis. I could tell from the minute I met Tina that she, like me, see dogs as human beings who just need consistent love, positive affirmation, attention and regular food/exercise care. My baby is very shy and shy around other dogs but she warmed up to Tina so so quickly, and was already crying when dropped off by Tina at home after Tina left her. I have the highest recommendation of Tina and even hesitate to post this bc I don’t want her to become too busy to take care of Nell again very soon and for a long time!”

About: Hey there Dog parents! I have been around animals starting at a very young age. So basically im obsessed with them. I was always the designated trainer for the new pups. And im pretty good at it. Whenever visiting family or friends you can always find me with the dogs. Family and friends have always trusted me with their furry family members. Wether your on vacation or simply your day is overloaded, I'm happy to offer my services to ease your day! Getting an early start on the day during the week with your pups in the morning works with my schedule. If early morning doesn't work with you, I'm also available late afternoon during the week. My schedule isn't firm so if you have any special requests, I would love to work with you and figure something out! I will always put your fur baby’s needs first. Watching their body language is something that I always look out for. Making you and your pup comfortable is what I strive for.

About: I have always walked and house sat for friends and family members that have multiple dogs, cats, rabbits and more. I have my own dog for over a year, and had family animals for my whole life! I will follow your schedule and pets needs as you instruct. I am comfortable walking on a leash, letting out in a yard, bathing and giving medicine as needed. I am a stay at home mom looking to get out of the house and make a few extra bucks at this time so whatever your need is, I will be there! I will make sure to send photos when I get there and communicate through the entire time. Any issues will be problems solved based on our previous conversations or I will reach out with any concerns.

About: About Me🫶🏻 Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I work remotely so I have plenty of time to give attention and love to your baby! I grew up in a household with large dogs and was involved in their daily care from puppyhood through their senior years. I have experience caring for dogs with health issues, including administering extra attention to senior and sick dogs. I understand that every dog has unique needs, whether that’s high energy playtime, structured walks, gentle senior care, or simply companionship and reassurance while you’re away. I’m attentive, responsible, and genuinely invested in making sure your dog feels safe, loved, and comfortable at all times. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every dog I care for as if they were my own. I truly can’t wait to meet your pup and spend time giving them the care, attention, and affection they deserve. I’m self-employed with the ability to work remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to plan my days around your pet’s needs. My husband and I are both big animal lovers. We don’t currently have pets of our own, which is one of the reasons I’m so happy to be on Rover! I have lot of time, attention, and love to give to yours. Your pet will never feel like an afterthought, they’ll be a welcomed part of our daily routine while you’re away. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs, routine, and personality. For walks and drop ins, I focus on safe outings, fresh food and water, playtime, and plenty of affection. I’m mindful of energy levels, weather conditions, or any special instructions you provide. For overnight care in your home, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. This includes feeding on schedule, walks or litter care, medication if needed, companionship, and ensuring your home is left clean and secure. I’m attentive to behavior changes and always prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety, making sure to communicate with you so you have live updates on your baby🫶🏻 If your pet likes to go outside, I’m happy to take them for a long hike on trails in the area, or a normal leash, walk, whatever you would typically do with them! Whether care takes place in my home or yours, your pet will receive consistent attention, supervision, and love treated as if they were my own.

“Kind and considerate sitter. Great experience. Thank you”

“Aletris was amazing! They were incredibly attentive and sweet with our kitty and went above and beyond our expectations. Aletris took the job very seriously and made sure nothing would get in their way of taking care of our fur baby, (even if that means resorting to biking to our house when their family needed their car)! We can’t express how happy we are to have found Aletris and I know our kitty felt the same way! Will definitely be hiring them again for future pet sitting needs!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cats and parrots all my life. I’ve had the responsibility of walking them, feeding them and playing with them. Now that I’m post-grad I have a cat of my own and am solely responsible for its care. Ive helped neighbors and friends with their animals when they go away on vacation. I am home for the summer with a part time job and this would fit in perfectly with my schedule. i am able to schedule around my other job. In my home we have a fenced in yard and our dogs are sometimes crated when we leave. When they are not crated have gates to set up safe spaces in the house where they can roam.

About: I was a mama to my Olde English Bulldogge boy Lolek for 11 years. I currently own a 2 year old Bull Terrier female named Koko and a 15 month old Cockapoo named Nala. I also have 5 chickens and 6 ducks and love to take care of animals as a homeschool mama. I homeschool my kids so I have a very flexible schedule. I am available during the week as well as the weekend. I only my be unavailable for services between 5pm-7pm as I may be taking my kids to extracurricular activities. I have 2 dogs at home so I welcome pets that get along with other animals. I have a 1.7 acre unfenced yard and love walks in my neighborhood and playtime in my yard. My dogs are crated during the night and when I am not home. I welcome pets that sleep in the crate during the night but also can accommodate well trained sleepers that need a bed or sofa. I can train your pup with simple commands and can give a bath as needed (for extra cost). I do have a dog kennel outside that I can use to let the pets I care for safely run around and play with each other.
