About: I have taken care of my own family dogs and cats for my whole childhood and adulthood life. I have been given the experience of watching my neighbors and friends' pets. It has ranged from hamsters to dogs. I also have experience with training and watching after puppies. I work full-time as a teacher so am home by midafternoon. I take a mile walk before I leave for work and when I get back, so your pet will receive adequate exercise and stimulation. I have a dog to keep your furry friend company! He is very calm and loves other animals. I have space if your animal needs separation or to be crated for any reason.

About: I have take care of dogs and cats since I can remember. I’ve always had family pets that I looked after. Recently I started to pet sit professionally and have looked after pets with all manners of personalities and needs. I am currently working full time with a hybrid schedule. Monday through Wednesday in the office and Thursday through Friday remote. I am free every weekend and anytime after 5pm. Because each pet parent is unique and has their own ways to raise and care for their pets I strictly adhere to their rules and guidelines. That includes areas they have their pets walk and house rules for those that request house sitting.

About: Chilling with pets is my favorite self-care! I have been taking care of cats and dogs for over 20 years. My speciality is rescue animals and all of my cats over the years have been from shelters. I've taken care of all types of cats and dogs from pugs to German Shepards, from kittens to senior cats. I am very gentle, compassionate, and give great pet back scratches! I currently work as a social worker and my schedule is very flexible. This means I am available outside a traditional Monday - Friday 9am-5pm schedule. I follow your instructions like a recipe and am proactive about asking questions related to the care of your pet. In addition, my former roommate is a practicing veterinarian and is on-call for me 24/7. :)

About: Full-time medical student, eager to get my (and your pup's) steps in! I've grown up with dogs my whole life and currently have 1 at home, so I have some experience caring for pups, to say the least. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! Would love to give your pup all the love and attention it deserves, whether it be for a simple walk or an adventure to the park! I will make sure you're dog feels at ease and safe when with me, because that's how I'd want my own dogs to feel. If they have any dietary or health restrictions I'll be sure to pay extra attention to them while spending time with them. I love photography as well so I'll be sure to send pictures of your little model on our walks. I'm currently a full time medical student so my schedule revolves around what organ block i’m learning about but would be more than happy to find a time that works best for you, your pet, and me. During weekdays I am mostly available after 3:30 pm, but weekends are much more flexible! I would make sure your dog felt safe and was having fun while in my care. When caring for pets, I want to make sure all their needs are met and I am treating them as if they were my own pet. I love to go on walks to grassy and green areas so your dog will definitely be seeing some park action when with me.

“It was a wonderful experience to have Lana look over our three cats. She very quickly became friends with all three even two that are normally very reserved with new people. She went above and beyond with live updates, photos and videos. Made me feel totally happy that the fellas were in good hands while we were away. Would ? recommend Lana to anyone needing Roger services. I totally love this app/service and how it can connect you with people like Lana who are so good with our furry friends. ?”

Jennifer went above and beyond when taking care of Arlo, by not only ensuring he was fed but that he had enough play time and attention while I was gone. I would recommend booking her if you need someone reliable and with flexibility. Plus, she'll take a lot of cute photos of your pet!

Elisabeth took incredible care of my dog while I was out of the country for two weeks. It’s the first time I’ve seen my dog look happy in my absence! I got plenty of photos and updates and didn’t worry once. Elisabeth even stepped into extend visits when I got stranded for 24 hours. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!

Marine did a great job taking care of Chidi, who I know can have his behavior quirks and difficulties! She was very responsive and a pleasure to work with- I trusted that Chidi was in good hands when I had to take a last minute trip out of town. I received lots of pictures and Chidi looked like he had a great time. I would definitely have her care for Chidi again and recommend her to anyone looking for A+ cat care!

Katelyn was amazing with Roxy. This was my first time using Rover, so I was a little nervous about how the experience would go. However, Katelyn made sure to send plenty of pictures of Roxy enjoying her drop in visits. She also left the house just like I had left it. Definitely recommend Katelyn and would use her in the future if I ever need a dog sitter or someone to drop in quick if I was ever away from the house again.
