About: I specialize in helping anxious pets feel safe and comfortable, taking the time to earn their trust. I’ve hand-fed pets when needed and always adapt to their routine to ensure they feel at ease. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities! I am currently a college student and focusing on my academics. In the summers I have a part time job and before college I was always working as I started my first job at 14! I love pets and am hoping to be able to make some cash while having fun caring for animals as its not an added stress on top of school. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize sticking to their routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I take the time to understand their needs, whether it’s feeding, walks, medication, or extra reassurance for anxious pets. I ensure their safety and keeping the home tidy. My goal is to make each pet feel at ease by offering patience, attentiveness, and plenty of care while respecting their space and routine.

About: I've always been passionate about dogs and can hardly remember a time when I didn't have one of these amazing, loyal companions by my side. I've been dog sitting for friends and family members for the past five years, and I've enjoyed it so much that I've decided to branch out so I can meet even more fur friends. I also do dog training/owner coaching, and I believe it's never too late to teach a dog new tricks. I work part time, and most of my work is done at home, so I'll have plenty of time to spend with my fur friends. I have a huge back yard with a 6 ft privacy fence for ample room to run and play and even a doggie pool to splash around in to stay cool. My house is a couple blocks down from the trail for my fur friends who love to go for walks to get some of that extra energy out.

About: My experience includes behavior modification, rehabilitation and foster care. Since I was my daughters age I have been pet sitting and working with animals and would like to share the experience I work at home everyday but Thursday. We are available for dog walking and live close to a park trail and we are looking for a family interaction. Crate services, roaming and family integrated home. We are able to walk your animals and provide check ins. I know how animals are part of the family.

“Jack loves him some Katie, and so do we! She’s helped us out so much already, allowing us to do things where pups aren’t allowed and all the while knowing he’s being well cared for and loved!”


About: I’ve owned dogs for over 10 years and know how important it is for them to be well cared for while their families are busy. We house mostly small-medium sized dogs and do not have cats. We’re also very conveniently located right off I-380. I appreciate instructions, great communication, and will care for your pets as if they were my own. I enjoy taking fun photos/videos of your pets to let you know how they’re doing. I work from home full-time and would love to keep your pup company if needed! I work from home full time Monday- Friday and like to stay active. I usually walk my dogs every day and am happy to do that for your pets as well. I live in a safe, walkable neighborhood as well. Pets are cared for by instruction if anything special is needed. We usually let our dogs roam free in certain part of the house when not home but also can crate if that is best.

“Alice is great! Thank you so much for watching Oreo. Beautiful home and fenced yard, Oreo loved his day there I’m sure!”


About: We want to make sure your pet has all the love and attention and will be very safe while you are away. We have no other pets in our home and your pet will receive 100% of our attention. I work from home so I am available at all hours. We have a large backyard with lots of room to play and we also take a couple of walks a day if your pet enjoys that! I currently work from home. I will be available to take care of your pet at all times. We can discuss your pets needs and see what is perfect for them while they stay in our home. Your pet will be part of the family. We have a large yard and garden they will have access to. They will be walked daily. We will treat your dog like it’s our own. Love, kindness and plenty of fresh air and exercise is what we do!!

“Great! I felt safe leaving my 7 months puppy with him. Really caring, loving and asked questions to make sure my puppy got the care that I wanted exactly!”


About: Family and Friends have called me the “dog whisperer”, because I am able to connect with their pets so easily. I feel pets are such a big part of your family; your baby, your little one, or your child almost. You would be entrusting me with the care of this most precious part of your family. I love to be down on the floor giving the fur babies my undivided attention … whether it be petting, playing, belly scratching, brushing, or loving on your fur baby. I Love to be face-to-face and making a connection with the pets. I am also a walker myself, so I I love to be outside walking your pets. I work from home and my schedule is extremely flexible. My schedule is able to be put on hold for periods of time, if more time and attention are required or needed. I am able to leave to walk your fur baby, pet-sit at your place, or take care of your fur baby at my home. Pet care is as on-hands and giving as much attention to your fur baby as you wish. I am ready to love them as much as they want and need. I do live in an apartment with places surrounding the building to take dogs outside to potty. There is a new dog park just a block from where I reside. My building is a secure building that is locked with cameras everywhere in the hallways. There are long hallways in my building with very few residents and lots of room to run inside when weather outside is not good. I am able to leave as often as needed to walk dogs. Also, I am able to care for your fur babies in their own home or at my residence.

“Alex and Devon were wonderful! It was our first time booking our puppy Opal with them and they did such a great job with her! When we picked her up we could tell she had so much fun with them. I loved that they sent me updates throughout the day, and pictures of her having fun, it really put us at ease throughout our trip! They were also lenient and understanding when we had to change the booking to the next day because of weather changes. I would highly recommend them to anyone and everyone! I will be booking Opal with them again!”


About: I know what it takes to care for your pets so they won’t even miss you while you’re gone! I am skilled at brisk or slow “sniff,” walks depending on the needs of your pet. I’m comfortable brushing, cuddling, playing fetch, and feeding/watering your pet. Just let me know of any special requests and I can accommodate your pets needs! I’m looking forward to spending time with your animal. I love to be outside, provide snuggles, work on commands, and give treats. Your pet will have a great time in your absence and feel loved and appreciated. I don’t mind picking up dog poop as my dog is 65 lbs and comes with a lot of up keep :) I have a kitten as well and am learning what it takes to entertain a high energy cat! I am willing to accommodate needs beyond the 15 mile range for an additional fee of 58 cents per mile! Please contact me if you have questions about services, booking, or pricing! I work from home and have a flexible schedule to meet your needs. I am home most weekends as well and want to be flexible so you are stress free! I have fur babies to keep your pet comfortable and entertained. I have a fenced in yard for exercise and love to go for walks. I have a variety of toys and treats to meet your pet’s needs!

About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and have had many pets over the years, including dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, chinchillas, hamsters, gerbils, mice, parrots, fish and various reptiles. I started working at doggy daycares/boarding facilities when I was a teenager. I now work in the veterinary industry and pet sit for fun! I’m new to Rover but not new to pet sitting. I’m available to stop by your house several times a day to feed, walk, and play with your pets as needed. I’m happy to drive your pets to any grooming/veterinary appointments as well. I can do drop in visits or board exotics at my house if preferred (they will be kept away from my dogs at all times) - you can provide a cage/enclosure, or I have several spare ones of various sizes/styles I can set up if you let me know ahead of time. I can board dogs as long as they’re dog friendly - I have an energetic Phu Quoc ridgeback puppy who loves to play and an older schnauzer mix who prefers napping. Both are good with other dogs. I live on an acre property and have a fully fenced yard. I have access to veterinary care 24/7 should it ever be needed.

“Anne understands dogs which makes her a great choice as a pet caregiver. Not only does she have two dogs of her own, but both are animals that had issues which Anne has patiently worked with, and the results are remarkable. So, if you need a tip or two with your pet, she will be glad to help as well. Her love for dogs of all kinds of breeds makes her the ultimate dog caregiver. She has taken care of my rat terrier since she was a puppy. Whenever we get close to Anne’s house, she will whine in excitement to play with her “buddies”. I highly recommend Anne as a pet sitter or dog walker.”

She's always been good with animals and takes her responsibility as a caregiver very seriously. Her compassion and intelligence help her understand what each dog needs to be safe and have fun in her home or on outings. My daughter and I have been Rover hosts for many years, so I know how important it is for a dog's family to be able to relax while away, knowing that their pups are being treated like the precious family members they are.”
