“Chuck was wonderful! It was our first time using a dog walker since we got our puppy. Chuck volunteered to come and meet our dog prior to his first drop-in free of charge which was wonderful for the dog and his parents! :) We will be using him again in the future 100%!”

About: I am well versed in anything that includes animals. My father has owned a dog business for over 15 years and I have helped him throughout my whole life. I am also very well versed in horses and work for a couple people around their barn! I am a college student, but I have a very flexible schedule. I also work a few jobs but that doesn’t interfere with my scheduling. I have a fenced in yard with my own fur baby to keep your company! My roommate also has her own fur baby who will be happy to mingle with yours.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of dogs through my previous work assisting a sitter on Rover. During that time, I helped with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and making sure each dog felt safe and comfortable in their environment. I worked with different breeds, sizes, and personalities, which taught me how to adjust my care to meet each animal's unique needs. I understand how important consistency, patience, and attention are when it comes to animals. Whether it's an energetic pup that needs extra playtime or a more relaxed dog that just wants companionship, I make sure they receive the care and affection they deserve. I'm also comfortable following specific instructions, including feeding schedules, medication, and any special care requests. My goal is always to create a calm, loving, and trustworthy environment so pets feel secure while their owners are away. I treat every animal as if they were my own and prioritize their happiness, safety, and well-being at all times. As a college student with a very flexible schedule, I'm able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the day. My availability allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and extended stays without feeling rushed. Because of this flexibility, I can adjust to your pet's routine and make sure they get consistent care, attention, and companionship whenever they need it. 1 understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I always prioritize safety by staying attentive, following instructions carefully, and making sure pets are secure and comfortable in their environment. You can count on me to provide dependable, respectful care while giving your pet the love and attention they deserve.

About: I’ve taken care of our family’s pets by providing them daily care as well as being sure our family pets have the vet care and attention they need. Both my pets and my family pets always get the love and attention they deserve. I currently work as a school photographer, so I work plenty of mornings, but my normal workdays are done before lunch! I have plenty of free time in the afternoons. I have seen first hand the dangers of allowing animals to escape or free roam around your home. I am very protective of the animals I care for, making sure their environment is safe and inviting.
About: I personally have had two dogs and one cat in my life. I grew up around dogs and cats. My current dog is almost two years old so I have experience with younger pups. I’m currently working part-time, so i’ll have an ample amount of time to have fun with your doggos. My hours are pretty flexible. I work from four to six hour shifts, four to five days a week. I’m versed in crate training, strict feeding schedules and dietary restrictions as my own dog maintains. I have a car so I don’t mind a small field trip. I also am flexible if emergencies happen.
About: I have always had animals in my life. I know each one is different and special. I grew up on a farm so I know having a loving and compassionate person to care for your babies is a necessity when you have animals. I am a stay at home mom so while the kids are at school I have plenty of time to come by and play with your babies. I have a fenced in courtyard area in my home. We also have two dogs that love other dogs. One is a rescue Maltese and is 12 years old. The other is a 2 year old poodle, he is my husband's service dog so usually he is at work with my husband all day.
“The sweetest sitter! She came at the last minute for a drop in visit for my two large dogs, and tended to them very nicely! I really appreciate her responsiveness and attentiveness. Thanks again!”

“She's amazing, very caring and detailed. She makes sure she knows what your dog's needs are and that they are met. She's got a bubbly personality that makes you feel right at home. Id trust her to take care of my diabetic dog anytime. Thanks for making this easy.”

“Sarah and her husband Russell (also a Rover sitter) both take care of my furbabies and are irreplaceable. They both know their likes and dislikes and give them so much attention. (Including Peyton, my cat and both of my fish) who aren't even on their list of babies to care for. They've even gone so far as to bring packages inside of my house, If I have a package arrive, they will haul it inside for me! Including heavy ones like a mattress and furniture. They go above and beyond the call of duty and they are more like extended family than sitters! I appreciate them and am so grateful to Rover for connecting me with such awesome people. I wouldn't trust my babies with anyone else.”
About: I love dogs! I have 1 very spolied dog, King. He's a4 year old boxer that gives an impression that he'll eat you for lunch, but he's the biggest sweetheart!! I spoil and love on him every chance I can. He'll never want for anything, except more kisses! I want to share that love with other dogs in my spare time. I have a lot of love to go around. Your fur baby will go on walks and updates will be left for you to view upon your return! I am a very honest and reliable individual. I am punctual probably to a fault. Dont want me feed treats to your furry friend? I will never do what I am told not to. You can trust me and you'll be recommending me to your friends!! King usually sleeps all day, but I make sure he goes out and runs around several times a day. I go on long walks, but he had a very expensive surgery and I don't think he can take long walks. Whether I'm caring for a pet in my home or a client's home, all rules will be followed. My primary reason for being on Rover and caring for dogs is to make sure that nothing is missed while the hoomans are away!
About: Been taking care of dogs and cats my whole life, i got my female Husky in Feb of 2018 and rescued my male Husky in Oct 2018. There is no pet i don't love and so far have never met a pet that didn't like me too, some take a little longer but you just gotta let me get use to you. I am available at pretty much all times, and i have an SUV so i can lug all the furry friends around when needed. I do not have a fenced in yard but i take my dogs over to my mothers and let them run around and can let any dog i watch go over with us and get all their energy out.

Hammond pet parents share their Rover experiences
Darcy is amazing! She traveled 30 minutes to do a last minute meet and greet and then drove back up here on Monday. It was a huge relief knowing our babies were being well taken care of on the worst day of my life…. My husbands funeral. She came and fed them dinner, washed their bowls (I expected them to be in the sink - but that extra touch was so special), made sure they all went potty and back inside. It’s always a little scary letting someone you don’t know come in and take care of pets but she is 1000% trustworthy and my crew loved her! It’s a comfort knowing I now have someone that I can call on to help when needed.

We generally don’t need this service often but Chuck showed up and was able to relax and bond with our 100lb GS. Thank you Chuck for helping us out and being an absolute professional. I actually think our boy misses you. We’ll be reaching out to you and this service more often.
She's amazing, very caring and detailed. She makes sure she knows what your dog's needs are and that they are met. She's got a bubbly personality that makes you feel right at home. Id trust her to take care of my diabetic dog anytime. Thanks for making this easy.
