“Rachel came and met me at my house for a walkthrough. She is very sweet with my dog. She was a trooper even when my pup had an accident. Thank you Rachel and Rover for peace of mind.”


About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart—especially after caring for my own sweet Bella, who bravely faced mouth cancer until she passed in December 2023. Helping her eat, move, and feel loved during that time taught me patience, compassion, and the true meaning of care. I also care for Bulleit, our Frenchie, who’s overcome two spine surgeries and may not walk like he used to, but still lives every day with joy and spirit. With over 5 years of experience, I treat every pet like family—giving them the love, attention, and gentle support they need. Whether it’s slow, comforting walks, playtime, or quiet cuddles, I’m here to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and truly cared for. I can’t wait to meet your special companion and be their loving second best friend. I currently work second shift from 4 PM to 12:30 AM, so my mornings and afternoons are free—perfect for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving your pet plenty of attention during the day. I’m also fully available on weekends, making it easy to provide consistent care and companionship whenever your furry friend needs it most. This schedule allows me to focus on making sure every pet I care for feels happy, loved, and well looked after throughout the day. Whether caring for pets in their own home or mine, safety and trust are my top priorities. I create a calm, secure environment where pets feel comfortable and relaxed. I always follow the pet parent’s instructions closely—whether it’s about feeding, medication, or special needs—and make sure to keep dangerous items out of reach. At my home, I provide a pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play and rest, free from hazards. In your home, I respect your space and routine, keeping everything just as you like it while giving your pet loving attention and companionship. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, ready to respond calmly to any situation, ensuring they stay safe, happy, and stress-free at all times.

“Hunter was exceptional with our pets! We originally hired him to walk our pup but had also gotten a kitten at the time and he spent extra time with our kitten as well making sure she got some love! I would highly recommend! Was professional, well mannered and incredibly kind to our fur babies ❤️”


About: I am a very neat, friendly, organized, caring, and punctual person who will take excellent care of your dog(s) during their time with me, giving them plenty of cuddles, love, exercise and attention or whatever else they may need! I look forward to meeting your dogs during a meet and greet to make sure it’s an excellent fit and then helping you out with whatever your dog care needs may be! I am also definitely more of a moderate-low energy dog person. Just let me know what I can do to be of assistance to you. Thank you for your consideration! A meet and greet is required. Please check my calendar for my available dates before sending a request! *I only take one client’s dog(s) at a time I did take a multi year break from Rover hence why the last review was several years ago. I can work from home when your dog is with me or bring your dog to work with me so I’ll be around to tend to your dog’s needs such as feeding schedules and regular walks as well as some playtime. However, I do request that your dog is a moderate - low energy dog as I do not have the time for highly active/energetic dogs. I will follow all instructions provided for drop in or dog walk visits (only services offered at this time) and maintain supervision at all times during any fenced yard play and during dog walks.

About: I’ve had the pleasure of caring for dogs, cats, and both small and large farm animals my entire life, and I’ve been fortunate to work in the veterinary field as a veterinary technician and assistant for over 20 years. Throughout my career, I’ve gained extensive experience, including skills like inserting IVs, setting up fluid pumps, and administering subcutaneous, oral, and intramuscular medications in both hospital and home settings. I’ve assisted in numerous routine and emergency surgeries and procedures, providing care for animals with a wide variety of ailments. Some of the conditions include caring for diabetics, seizures, kidney disease, liver disease, URis, UTis, hyperthyroidism, foreign body surgeries, fractures, ACL surgeries, obstructions, and poisonings. I love walking and caring for animals weather that mean playing with them or spoon feeding them back to health. Additionally I have also had the privilege of caring for a wide range of animals, from large and small farm animals to dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes—from energetic puppies to loving senior dogs. I've also cared for both senior cats and playful kittens, gaining valuable experience with each stage of life Please let me know what you need, and I will do everything I can to ensure your pet feels loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you are away. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration! Hi there!

About: I grew up with dogs of all sizes and was around many farm animals. I have been pet sitting for family and friends for as long as I can remember. I have cared for many different species.

About: During the past year as freshman in college, I got certified at a humane society where I learned how to effectively walk and care for pets. I am currently on track to go to vet school in three years as I major in biology on the pre-vet track and plan to shadow veterinarians this summer. I am a conscientious student athlete on the deans list. As a college soccer player, I am driven and always ready to take on a challenge! I can’t wait to meet your pet(s)! I am currently player summer soccer in the evenings of Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7:30-9 as well as games on Saturdays. Otherwise I am very open throughout the week! At home we have an electric fence for our dog and no crate. However, from pet setting for someone previously who’s dog does use a crate, I am familiar with and will be able to get your pet into a crate if needed. My dog is also getting old and needs some special care such as soaking his food for his sensitive teeth or helping him jump up onto beds. I am able to adapt to any accommodations needed.

Jennifer "Mimi" F.
“Mimi is an amazing person, whether she's walking dogs or not. But, since this is about the doggos, I'll focus on that. She's always super attentive when she cares for my dogs or when she's with her dogs, and I haven't seen a single dog that has not liked her instantly. She always comes prepared with my dog's favorite treats and doggy bags for walks, and every time I come home he's completely tuckered out and content. You definitely want her as a sitter!”


Elena H.

“Helpful and friendly!”


Shannan P.

“Absolutely lovely to work with and very communicative!”


Regina M.
“I can’t recommend Gina enough! She took care of both my dogs and cats while I was away, and I came home to very happy, relaxed pets. From the start, Gina was professional, communicative, and clearly experienced with both dogs and cats. My dogs can be a little anxious when I leave, but Gina gave them lots of attention, exercise, and structure—which made a huge difference. My cats, who usually hide from strangers, actually came out to play and cuddle. I received regular updates, photos, and even a little summary of how each day went. It gave me total peace of mind while I was gone. The house was just as I left it, and I could tell my pets had been well loved in my absence. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and great with animals, Gina is your person. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”




Madaline C.
“I have known Mattie for about 3 years and she has watched my 2 dogs on multiple occasions. I would highly recommend Mattie to care for anyone's pets. She is a loving, responsible and caring person. My dogs love to see Mattie. She leaves my home in perfect condition and I know they are in good hands so that I feel comfortable taking trips without my fur babies. I have an Australian Shepherd mix that can be a handful and Mattie does so good with him. I also have a King Charles Cavalier that demands attention and lots of cuddles! I am so happy that Mattie can do both for each personality. I would trust her with my babies any day!!”


Andelen F.

“Andelen has been our cat sitter for the last couple of years anytime we are out of town. She always takes the best care of Timber. She not only spends her time feeding and providing fresh water, but she'll spend generous time petting and loving on Timber. Andelen has gained our trust not only with providing quality care for our cat, but we completely trust her in our home as well. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend her as your pet sitter.”


Gabriella S.
“Gabby is truly a cat lover. She has had cats as pets her entire life and is now a great cat mom. She has taken care of our cat when we are away and I highly recommend her!”


Erin O.
“I highly recommend Erin as a pet sitter. Erin is a true animal lover and a very sweet person. My dog is hesitant around people, but the first time she met Erin, she went right up to her trusting and sensing her love for dogs. Erin has watched my dog a few times and has always gone above and beyond to help make her feel comfortable while we were gone. Spending all of her free time with my puppy and taking her on extra walks. I would give Erin a 5 out of 5 rating as a pet sitter.”
