“She is fantastic! The first day walking the poor lady had to deal with a torrential downpour with a puppy that has never encountered rain on a walk. She went out of her way to text me to ensure it would be ok to walk her in the weather and also even offered to put a doggy raincoat she had on hand on her! She went out of her way to come visit ahead of time and make me feel comfortable and I would 100% recommend her!”


About: I've had plenty of dogs and raise them to by family dogs. I'm good at getting dogs to listen. Love playing and running around with them. I take them to parks, play catch and etc. I'm a Military Vet I find animals to be the center of my peace. I will be loving, nurturing and caring for all animals in my care. I just ask to be notified of any allergies or previous injuries, do to activities that my be planned for that day. I wouldn't want to return you animal to you in an unhealthy state. I am a huge lover of animals, I been that way since birth. Let me care for your animal, and return them with smiles. I'm also learning how to massage animals.

About: Hi! I’m Cori and animals are one of my biggest passions. I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats. I’m looking forward to giving them some fury friends! I have experience with senior dog care and raising puppies. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets behind, so I’m grateful for the opportunity to love on them while you’re away. I’m extremely reliable, caring, and patient. Whether your pet needs medication, a consistent routine, or extra time to warm up to someone, I’m happy to adjust to whatever works best for them (and for you). Whether I’m with them for a drop-in or overnight stay, I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Plus, I love to take pictures and document our adventures, so you can expect regular updates and plenty of photos while you’re away. Feel free to reach out to set up a time to chat or schedule a meet and greet! I’m hoping to do Rover full time! I have all the time in the world for your fur babies and can work around any schedule. I’m ready to give your pets any exercise and stimulation that they need. I love to take the dogs on walks in the park. I will make sure your pet is treated like my own and given the same attention and care!

About: I have years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. What sets me apart is my patience, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals. I’ve also spent years rescuing and rehabilitating stray dogs, which has taught me how to be calm, responsible, and deeply compassionate in all kinds of situations. I'm comfortable creating a calm environment for anxious pets. Whether it's a fun walk or a cozy overnight stay, your pet will be treated like family. I know it takes great courage and trust to leave your dog in a new home. I also understand the inner anxiety, loneliness and nervousness that may come with it. I’m here with sincerity, experience, and love—to help ease your dog's transition and let them feel the warmth of a home. ❤️My promise: I will care for every dog that comes to me as family. They will run freely on the lawn and nap comfortably on the sofa. ❤️More importantly, 5% of every proceed will be donated to support the rescue of stray dogs. ❤️I truly hope we can work together... to bring a little light... into more dogs’ lives. ❤️Thank you for reading this far. Whether you choose me or not, I sincerely wish your dog a safe, healthy, and happy life—always. Pet care isn’t just part of my daily routine—it’s my full-time job. I do Rover full-time, which means I dedicate all my time and energy to caring for your dog. I’m home 24/7 to provide constant attention, love, and supervision, ensuring your pet always feels safe, happy, and cared for. To me, pets are like adorable little children who deserve more than just basic care. I make sure all their physical needs—meals, potty breaks, walks—are fully met, but I also focus deeply on their emotional well-being. I never leave pets feeling lonely or bored. I interact with them, play with them, and make them feel truly at home—happy, free, and loved. ✅I'm a neat freak who likes to keep the house clean and fragrant. During the care period, I will comb and tidy your dog every day (the expenses are included in the care fee without paying extra). ✅ I'm also a cooking enthusiast. With your permission, I will steam chicken breast, beef, broccoli and carrots for the dog during the care period. ✅I'm even more fond of chatting and hugging with the dog. As a loyal member of dog lovers , I will give your dog a big hug from time to time and have fun together.


“Hi! Jen is an amazing dog walker and I would highly recommend her. She has taken on walking my 18 year old Emma, a rat terrier mix, 5 days a week. Jen is patient and kind with Emma, from slowly waking her up each afternoon, to walking her in all kinds of horrible winter weather, to making sure her paws are clean when they return. And with my old sassy girl, trust me when I say none of it is easy. Jen somehow pulls it off, week after week. I'm so grateful to have found her.”

When can we meet? I'm looking for a way to meet more dogs when away from my grand dogs and want to walk / and exercise more while providing a trustworthy option for your pet(s)! Inclement weather doesn't matter if your pet doesn't mind it. I'm already an experienced and trusted house sitter, plus dog and cat sitter (and can care for houseplants & yards too).

Your pet will be treated as if it was mine. I will make sure to provide the best care and protect your baby the best possible way. I am a proud owner of a Mini Aussie - Koda and a Black Cat - Joe. Few years ago I said goodbye to my best trio ever. They were all senior doggies. First I’ve lost Koko (17 years old Maltipoo), second heartbreak was 13 years old Pitbull - Woofy, third 15 years old Chihuahua - Choochoo ! All were the most important furry babies ever! I will always carry this horrible hole in my heart after the BIG loss. I’ve decided to join Rover to fulfill my purpose of helping others with their loved ones as best as I can, so we both know they are in good hands while you are busy with your obligations. I am here for you and for them. I understand how important our four legged friends are, and I will make sure we are all happy at the end of the busy day. We can go for long walks, we can stay home, we can relax or play! Whatever it takes for you and your pet to be comfortable and completely satisfied. I am here to help!

I have a fenced large backyard. I have a cat and a dog. They are both extremely friendly. If needed they can be separated from a pet I do take care of.


About: I am a dog lover who currently owns 3 dogs, a terrier mix, a standard poodle, and a Doberman. My husband and I love animals and have grown up around different types of pets, which is why dog sitting is a perfect fit for me. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my entire life. I acquired my love for animals from my father. Since before I was born, he has always owned a dog. The first dog I remember having was a Husky named Brandon. We named him Brandon because of the dog on "Punky Brewster" and I must have been only around 4 years old! My experience administering medication I have experience administering medication to my own pets and others pets as well. I’m a stay at home mom, which means I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pup(s). We love playing outdoors and our dogs are like family to us!

I work 8 hour shifts on M,W,F and have class from 8:30-4:20 on T and Th. At home I am the primary caretaker for our cat. I make sure that the basic needs are covered such as food, water, and cleaning her litter box. I also am home more than others in my home so I give her plenty of love and play with her (when she isn’t in a loaf on the couch sleeping)!

About: I’ve always loved animals, growing up with dogs and other pets. I will play with or take your dog for a walk whenever needed.

“Lydia walked our pup for several days when we needed her (fairly last minute). She had good communication about scheduling, showed up exactly when expected and walked our dog with her training treats, and following our directions regarding puppy’s socializing/sitting at corners during walk. We will ask her to watch/walk our animals again.”
