About: I’ve always loved animals and genuinely enjoy spending time caring for them, playing with them, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that pets are family, so I treat every dog with the same patience, attention, and love I would want for my own. What sets me apart is that I truly care about making pets feel happy, relaxed, and cared for, not just watched. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and needs, whether that means lots of playtime, cuddles, walks, or simply giving them a calm environment where they feel secure. I also know how important communication is, so I make sure owners feel comfortable with updates and pictures while they’re away. My goal is to make both pets and owners feel completely at ease and confident in the care they’re receiving. I am currently home from college for the summer, I am available at almost any time! I do not typically work after 10 PM but can work something out if needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of attention, exercise, and playtime, and feel safe while their owners are away. I also understand that being in their own home helps many pets feel more relaxed and secure. I’m respectful of each client’s home and follow all care instructions carefully, including walks, medications, crate routines, bedtime routines, or any special needs. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured knowing their pets are happy and well cared for.

About: I've taken care of all kinds of animals since I was a child. From multiple pet households to livestock to exotic and unique animals, it would be easier to ask what I haven't cared for in my lifetime. Being a pet mother myself, I understand the concerns owners have when it comes to the care and comfort we desire for our fur-babies. Since working in the veterinary field, my skillset has only grown when it comes to providing care for our four-legged family members. With two fur-babies of my own and working full-time at a vet clinic at the end of the week, I'm available for half of the weekend and the beginning of the week for now. Since my own cats are rescues and highly sensitive to any changes in their daily routines, I'm currently unable to offer any hosting availability at my home. I am, however, able to stop by at any time to check on your fur-babies to make sure they have everything they need to be as comfortable as they can in your absence.

About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is the level of care, attentiveness, and protection I provide to every dog as if they were my own. I have experience working with young puppies who need patience, structure, and consistency with basic training and routines, as well as senior dogs who require gentle handling, medication management, and close monitoring. Safety is always my top priority I am highly observant on walks, mindful of surroundings, and proactive in preventing any potential risks. I understand canine body language, which helps me anticipate needs and avoid stressful situations. Whether it’s reinforcing positive behaviors, sticking to a detailed feeding schedule, or providing calm companionship for anxious pets, I create a secure and loving environment where dogs feel comfortable and protected. Owners can trust that their pets are not only cared for, but truly looked after with responsibility, awareness, and genuine affection. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially as an incoming medical student with a flexible study schedule. While my classes are structured, I have built-in breaks throughout the day that allow me to step away, reset, and give pets the attention they need. Studying also provides flexibility, since I can organize my time around walks, feeding schedules, play sessions, and check-ins. I value balance and know how important movement and fresh air are, so taking a dog out for a walk or spending time engaging with them fits seamlessly into my day. When I’m studying, pets stay in a safe, calm environment where they can relax comfortably nearby. Being in a rigorous academic program has strengthened my time management skills, responsibility, and attentiveness — qualities that directly translate into providing reliable, consistent, and safe care for every dog I look after. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. In my home, pets stay in a clean, calm, and secure environment with constant supervision, scheduled walks, and plenty of attention. I maintain consistent routines for feeding, exercise, and rest to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all provided instructions, respect the space, and keep pets on their normal schedule to ensure stability. I’m attentive to behavior changes, mindful of surroundings on walks, and proactive about preventing any safety risks, so owners can feel confident their pets are protected and well cared for.

About: I have had and taken care of pets my entire life. Everything from dogs and cats and fish, all the way to ferrets! I now though, have 5 years (and counting) of professional experience in the dog world, 3 of those years also I including providing care to cats as well as birds, lizards, guinea pigs and more! I worked at a Daycare, Boarding and Training facility for dogs for those first 2 years, and it helped me grow my skills exponentially! It's also allowed me to really strengthen my understanding of dogs, their behavior, body language and how to help them be successful and happy in their day to day lives. My following 3 years was with an in-home pet care company where I provided more individualized care and expanded my skill set with medications, senior care and special needs. I saw and worked with the whole spectrum of ages, breeds and temperaments. I have experience with administering oral, topical, injectable and inhaler medications, basic grooming services and working through anxious behaviors. I also have a very special soft spot for the high energy breeds! I am very flexible, dedicated, caring and I understand the importance of communication. My weekday schedule is typically fairly open and flexible from early morning to late evening pending other services booked, weekends tend to be busier so the earlier notice the better! I treat every pet I meet as if they were my own, keeping their safety and well being the first priority! Your home is their safe space, so that means making sure it is always secure and comfortable.

About: What sets me apart is my patience, flexibility, and genuine love for animals. I understand that pets, like people, need time to warm up, so I always work on their schedule — not mine. As a mom of two college students, caring for pets fills my heart and time with purpose. I’m dependable, respectful of your home, and willing to go the extra mile to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and understood. As a flexible part-time worker, I don’t mind driving or going the extra mile to make sure your home and pets are cared for like family I care for pets by following their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether in my home or yours, I provide a calm, loving environment where pets feel comfortable and secure. I take time to earn their trust, give them space when needed, and show affection when they’re ready. I handle feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions with care and attention to detail—just as I would for my own pets. My goal is to keep them happy, healthy, and stress-free while you’re away.

About: Hi! My name is Gaby and I’m the most genuine animal lover ever. All my life, I have always had pups in my home or worked professionally with them which is why I joined Rover so I could work and do what I love at the same time. I do Rover full time and I don’t have any fur babies of my own at the moment, so I’m able to dedicate all my time and attention to yours 🐾☺️ I've worked at Kennelwood Animal Resort and Y Bark Alone which are daycare/boarding businesses and I absolutely loved it. I was taught how to kennel them properly, administer meds, and how to deal with all types of animal behavior big and small. With this being said, you can always trust your fur babies in my presence. He or she will always be the number one priority and be treated as if they were my own. Lastly, my goal is to build a relationship and longevity with the pup/owner so I can be the first person you think of when looking for a sitter knowing that they’re in great hands. I’m extremely excited to have the pleasure of being apart of Rover and hope to take care of your precious babies soon! Rover is my full time job at the moment so my schedule is very open to give your pet the proper time and attention they deserve. How I care for your fur baby is completely contingent on the owner. I follow all guidelines they have set in place whatever those may be. But you can trust they are always in the best of hands.
