My husband and I have been looking for a new walker and this was our first time working with Katie. She is communicative and also very understanding of our needs. Kiki can be a little too much when meeting others for the first time, but Katie handled her behaviors well! Thank you again :)

After my initial meeting with Ann-Marie I felt very secure with leaving Mia in her hands while I’m at work. Ann-Marie has been walking Mia during the week for a few months now and has proven to be very professional, consistent, responsible, and truly cares about Mia’s well being. I would 100% recommend her to for your pet care needs.

Lydia is an amazing dog walker for Hazel, always reliable and caring each Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Hazel adores her, and Lydia’s expertise shines in Hazel's improved walking behavior. Her warm and professional approach gives me complete peace of mind. Highly recommend Lydia for anyone seeking a dependable dog walker!

Cassandra has been taking care of my boys since early May. She is reliable, punctual, thoughtful, and caring. During their first week together, she left me a Polaroid photo of my boy, which was such a nice surprise. I really appreciated the photo and the text updates she sent. Thank you, Cassandra! Monty is always happy to see you and enjoys your visits.

About: I have years of veterinary medicine experience and have unexpected free time to take good care of your cute family members. I am trained on various diseases and emergency situations. I am able to care for pets at their home. I will ensure they are fed on time and they get potty breaks as the owner requests. I have a beagle at home which I take good care of and have my family to help take care of her should I be hired to go to a client’s home to care for their pets.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience working with a wide range of pets, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience and care. I approach every pet with calm, positive reinforcement techniques to build trust quickly and help them feel secure while their owners are away. I’m attentive to routines, health needs, and small details whether it’s administering medication, supporting crate training, or maintaining consistent walking schedules. My goal is to make each pet feel loved, safe, and understood in their own home environment. I am mostly available on mornings and nights. I am also available on weekends! If you need me for any other time or day, please schedule few days prior. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make their safety and comfort my top priority. I always follow the pet’s usual routine, keep doors and gates securely closed, and double-check leashes and harnesses before walks. I maintain a calm, clean environment so pets feel comfortable and relaxed, and I give plenty of affection and attention to help them feel at ease while you’re away. I also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you always know your pet is safe and happy.

About: I take care of more than just dogs and cats. Any guinea pigs, rabbits and birds are welcome too! There is a second story to the house for smaller animals like the above and for cats. Downstairs and the backyard is for boarding dogs. I can care for all sizes of dogs! Fulfilling pet care services for pet parents is currently my full-time job! I offer: dog walks; drop in services for feeding & other petcare needs; sitting in your home; boarding in my home upon scheduling. I have 2 locations to board dogs, both locations are within a mile of one another. I try to make it as homely for the pet as possible. If they would like to follow me around the house that is acceptable if they are potty trained. I garden in the backyard and they are more than welcome to join me outside! Many potty breaks for the puppers! Cats will stay on the second floor along with any small (non-K9) pets.

About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by cows, goats, chickens, cats, and dogs. This evoked in me a deep passion for animals, but especially dogs. My current occupation is nannying and I have been doing so for 10 years. I have also worked as a petsitter when the occasion arises. I love both of these jobs and this is the reason for deciding to sign up for this app. The way that I would describe myself is: responsible, caring, calm, sensitive, trustworthy, and reliable. I can easily create a connection with children and dogs alike, which makes them more comfortable spending their time with me. I feel comfortable sitting dogs of all sizes. I will genuinely love your pet and will always make sure to respond to his/her needs. Thank you for reading! Caring for pets is something I naturally build into my day. I make time for regular walks, feeding, play, and attention, and I enjoy creating a consistent routine that helps pets feel comfortable and well cared for. I care for pets by maintaining their normal routine, including feeding, walks, play, and rest. I pay close attention to their behavior and well-being, making sure they’re comfortable and safe at all times. In clients’ homes, I respect their space, keep everything tidy, and follow all instructions carefully. I also communicate consistently with updates, photos, and any important observations.

About: I am a true animal lover who genuinely enjoys caring for pets and making them feel safe, happy, and loved. I have meaningful hands-on experience caring for my own dogs, Antares (3) and Draco (7), back in Peru. They were an important part of my daily life, and through them I learned the value of consistency, patience, and understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. I am comfortable with dogs of different ages and temperaments, and I always focus on creating a calm, loving, and structured environment. Whether it’s going on walks, sticking to routines, or giving them extra attention and affection, I make sure every pet feels secure and cared for. I recently moved to the U.S. and am excited to begin my journey on Rover. I am reliable, detail-oriented, and truly committed to treating every pet as if they were my own. I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I will always do my best to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to adapt to each pet’s specific routine, whether that includes regular walks, feeding schedules, or just companionship. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I do my best to maintain their normal routine while they are in my care. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so it never feels like a task—it’s a part of my day that I truly look forward to. I always focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water at all times, and get plenty of exercise through walks and playtime. I also give them lots of attention and affection, while respecting their personality and boundaries. In a client’s home, I am very respectful of their space and keep everything clean and organized. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel at ease while they are away. My priority is always the pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being, and I treat every animal as if they were my own.

I have cats of my own and don’t want them to be stressed.

About: I have experience taking care of dogs because I grew up with them. Being around dogs has always felt natural to me, so I understand the basics of feeding them, walking them, playing with them, keeping them comfortable, and paying attention to what they need. I’m gentle, patient, and attentive, but I’m also playful, so I enjoy making sure dogs are not just cared for, but actually happy and engaged. I know every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I would always respect the owner’s instructions and take time to understand what works best for their dog. I’m currently in college and home for the summer, so my schedule is very open and flexible. I’m available for walks, playtime, drop-ins, and consistent care throughout the week. I’m happy to work with your dog’s routine and make scheduling easy for you. I care for pets by keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. In a client’s home, I would follow their instructions carefully, whether that includes feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication, or general house rules. I want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. For walks or visits, I would stay aware of my surroundings, keep dogs secure on their leash, avoid unsafe situations, and pay attention to how they’re acting. My goal is for the pet to feel cared for and for the owner to feel relaxed knowing their dog is safe and in good hands.

Desiree’ was absolutely amazing. My Belgian Malinois is a high energy and aggressive breed. Desiree’ demonstrated great poise and assertiveness when walking and visiting Tre while I was out of the country. Tre grew a close relationship with her fairly quicker than his past dog walkers. 10/10 highly recommend
