“Michele is truly AMAZING!!! I have been using her regularly for awhile to drop in and walk my adopted fur baby while I’m at work. This was my first time using Rover and I feel like I definitely hit the jackpot with Michele. She truly cares about the pets she looks after like they are her own and keeps me informed of any issue. My mind is definitely at ease knowing she is there for my pup. Can’t express enough wonderful things about her!! :)”

“Shari P. has always been a loving, kind pet owner. She’s our pets favorite person because she treats them as her special friends, making sure she has treats in her pockets whenever she sees them. They love going to her house because they know they’ll have the best time! I highly recommend Shari as the most excellent pet sitter you could find.”

We started as coworkers at the veterinary clinic we work for and have grown into friends over the years 💜 As a registered veterinary technician, Courtney has a deep understanding of and love for animals 🐾 I have personally seen her care of animals take place every day at work and it is nothing short of thorough. Along with her care, her knowledge is ever-growing! She stays up to date on current practices with continuing education courses and would be equipped to handle a lot of situations if they were to arise.

I'm capable of feeding, watering,playing, giving any oral medication as needed,having the pet "kennel up" when necessary.
7. Karissa B.
“In my house, pets are people. They have feelings and needs. I pay attention, and look out for them as they look out for me. Karissa not only gets this concept, it is entirely the way she interacts with other people’s pets. When I go away, and cannot bring pets along, I don’t have to worry about paying a premium just to get an extra bit of time in the outdoors, additional cuddles or treats, or for remote cameras to check on them. I know that Karissa will treat them like I would, and that makes it one less worry to bring along on vacation.”
8. Jessica S.
“Jessica was able to accommodate a last minute dog walk that is much farther away than typical (my pup was at my parents’ house. A positive experience all around, as is always the case!”
9. Paige G.

She always make sure to put her full effort and dedication into everything she does. She is one of the most amazing and authentic people I’ve ever known. Paige also has a love for animals. She has an amazing work ethic and loves all animals. Sincerely, Megan H.”

About: Nicknamed "Dr. Doolittle" by family and friends as a child, I have been caring for and rescuing animals for over 25 years. I have experience with dogs and cats, as well as birds, reptiles, and farm animals. Currently I have dogs, cats, turtles, chickens, geese and ducks that I care for daily at my home. I am also an avid hiker and trail runner and have been training dogs to hike and trail run for 20 years. Caring for animals is what brings me joy and I would be happy to help you with your pet care needs. I have a very flexible schedule and can provide care on weekdays and weekends as your pet needs. At home I care daily for my 4 dogs, taking daily walks as well as trips to the park frequently. I also care for 4 cats, lots of chickens, ducks and geese every day as well. Pet care is a large part of my day and I enjoy it very much! I have a locked 6 ft. fenced yard for dogs and another fenced in yard for my barnyard animals. I also have two levels where I can separate animals if need be, as well as crates.
11. Marissa C.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life and I have been getting paid to care for people‘s pets since I was 15. I am very experienced in pet care whether it be just to walk the dog around the block, administer medicine, hang out with them in the backyard while they have outside time. Whatever the need is I can definitely cater to it! I am a part time employee at FedEx during the day/week. I am available every other Monday anytime and also available anytime on Tuesday, Wednesday and Fridays and early/afternoon on Saturdays I can care for your pet in any way you need whether it be to walk them, stay outside with them while they use the restroom. Hang out with them for periods of time so they don’t get anxiety. Even if they just need a good petting and consoling while their owner is gone as I know some dogs can get very nervous without their owner around. Whatever your pets needs may be I got you covered!

14. Meagan B.
About: I’ve taken care of a wide variety of animals in my life, including cats, dogs, and rabbits! I’m no stranger to having to give special care to pets depending on what they need. I’m currently a graduate student, so my availability is limited to weekends; however, I’m an active person always looking for ways to move and help others. I care for my pets by treating them like family! For pets of others, I treat them how I would want my dogs treated- walks, food, water, treats, safety, and stimulating activities are always my top concerns.
15. Leigh E.
“Leigh is absolutely in love with all animals! She treats them with loving care and respect. She feeds, walks and plays with my dogs as if they were her own. Both my dogs are so happy when they see her, and hate to see her go. Leigh is punctual, tidy , and very professional in her duties as a sitter/walker. I trust no one else.”
16. Christen H.
“I highly recommend Christen! I was so worried about leaving my two tiny Yorkie's when we vacationed with family in Florida for a week. I reached out to Christen to see if should would be available to watch them for me. Even though my anxiety was high when we left, I was comforted immediately with daily check ins with pictures. My two little ones come with a little extra care (daily pee pad changing, can not be outside without supervision and picking up poop everyday) compared to bigger dogs. I was worried it might be a little too much, but Christen said no problem! I came home to two happy fur babies and that is all I was looking for. Christen is such a loving kind person and I honestly wouldn't trust anyone else outside of one family member to watch them while I was away.”
17. Jennifer M.
“Jennifer was very fast with communicating. She was punctual. My pup was at ease with her. I loved the photos sent of my dog walking in park. I had a tooth removed and was not sure I would be up to walking dog so booked Jennifer. I will rehire her again”
18. Calista C.
“Calista is one of the most kind, genuine girls I have had the pleasure of meeting and becoming friends with. She has the sweetest dog, Ryker, that she makes a priority at all times. She is responsible and helpful. We’re in school together and she is always there to listen or help with any problems I have. Her work ethic is admirable and she always tries to be the best she can possibly be. I highly recommend, and would let her care for my animals, which I consider my babies.”
19. Maddi B.
About: Hi my name is Maddi! I am the proud owner of Bombproof Canine Training LLC, I absolutely love what I do and I just wanted to leave my Rover account active to help connect with previous / potential clients. You can find me on Instagram and FB @bombproofcaninetraining I have a huge heart for high drive & misunderstood breeds. I rescued my American pitbull terrier from a kill shelter in Brooklyn the day she was set to be euthanized back in 2012. Rescuing and rehabilitating her really opened my eyes to what my purpose in life is and that is dog training. I am a Fear Free certified trainer as well as a CPDT-KA. I specialize in service animals, reactivity, fear, separation anxiety etc.. I'm also a huge advocate for rescue animals as well as responsible breeding, I have a high drive 4.5 year old black lab named Tater, a 3 year old malinios named Banshee, and a 2 year old Border Collie named Salem. I would love to help care for your pups while you’re busy at work, away on a trip or even if you’d like to set up some private training sessions. My own dogs are VERY high energy so I completely understand what it’s like when you don’t have the time to properly handle that. I really love being the “energy management coordinator” 😜 so if you just need someone to stop by and play ball for a bit I would love to help! At this time I prefer taking drop in visits, select boarding cases and training consults but will consider other options on a case by case basis. Don't hesitate to ask! I work in the canine industry full time, my focus is on training but I really enjoy drop in visits to help manage exercise and enrichment Every dog in my care will be treated as if they were my own, I encourage you to follow me on instagram to get a better understanding of how much I truly care about my animals.
