I needed care for our cat unexpectedly over Labor Day weekend and Megan not only quickly responded to the request but was flexible when booking. She showed up and sent the best pictures and thorough update. She made it really easy and gave us peace of mind. Thanks!

She was extremely kind and patient with the dogs! Our dog had a few accidents but she was super nice and understanding and cleaned it up for us! We would recommend her!

About: Hi! I have hands on experience working in a dog daycare and training environment providing daily care and supervision for dogs of various sizes, ages, and temperaments. My responsibilities included monitoring group play, ensuring safe interactions, and maintaining structured routines throughout the day. I also have experience administering basic medications to dogs as directed by owners including oral pill administration while following safety and care instructions carefully. In addition to daycare care I assisted with basic obedience training such as leash manners, sit stay commands, and reinforcement of positive behavior in structured sessions. I am currently studying through Animal Behavior College focusing on canine behavior, obedience training, and positive reinforcement techniques which I apply alongside my hands on experience. I offer flexible availability depending on the day and client needs. I am typically available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, including weekdays and weekends. I do my best to accommodate recurring schedules as well as last-minute requests when possible. I understand that trusting someone in your home is a big decision, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I always respect your space, follow all instructions closely, and maintain a clean, secure environment while caring for your pet. With my background working in a professional pet care setting, I’m trained to stay aware of safety at all times whether that’s properly securing doors, using leashes and harnesses correctly, or monitoring your pet’s behavior and well being. I provide reliable, consistent care and make sure your pet stays on their normal routine to reduce stress while you’re away. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can feel confident and at ease knowing your pet is in good hands. Your home will be treated with the same care and respect as your pet, both are a top priority to me.

About: Hello! My services offer walks and drop in visits. I’ve absolutely adored animals since I was little and have grown up with cats and dogs. I’ve been taking care of my own pets as well as strays and fosters for years. My work experience includes managing kennels at a vet, watching large groups of dogs at Beach for Dogs, and I was a bather at Petsmart. When your pet is in my care I can promise you they will be safe, happy and comfortable as can be every time. I’ll love them like my own! I am self-employed. I am able to work my Rover appointments into my schedule without any issues or potential of inconveniencing my clients in any way. I have a calm and nurturing energy when dealing with dogs to make them comfortable. It’s important to give them the opportunity to get their energy out so you can come home to a tired, relaxed dog!

About: I have hands on experience with both high energy and anxious dogs, so I’m comfortable handling everything from playful pups to pets that need a calmer, more reassuring approach. I also have experience being around cats through friends and family, and I’m happy caring for both. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be consistent and reliable with visits, walks, and check ins. I’m able to plan my day around pet care responsibilities and make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need without feeling rushed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions and prioritize the pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs and aim to create a calm, reassuring environment. I also respect the home by keeping things clean, following any house rules, and making sure everything is left as it was found. I provide updates and photos so owners feel confident while they’re away.

Working with animals has always been a passion of mine and I absolutely adore providing care for them. I have been an in-home dog sitter while people were out of town and have walked dogs.

I am transparent & up front about my daily/weekly routine so that I & my clients can work out the best possible plan for everyone. I am able to discuss and apply all of your needs/requirements for your pet(s). Whether that be crating at certain times, feeding at certain times, etc. or following specific instructions to keep them happy, healthy & safe.

About: I have worked in a doggy daycare that required us to not only manage the dogs but also teach them how to properly socialize with other dogs! This sparked my love for dog training and once I got my dog Turtle my journey to becoming a dog trainer began! My mission is to help you and your dog’s life be more fulfilling together in any way I can. Whether that be teaching you guys how to communicate better, being there while you’re working to support them, or taking them out on adventures I will do my best to make it worthwhile! I can’t wait to meet you but specifically your pup! 🙏🐶❤️ I work two part-time jobs with one of them being a dog trainer. This means plenty of time and skills that I can use to not only be there for your dog but also help them learn! When it comes to your pets care you tell me what is best. You know your dog better than I ever will, which means you know their discomforts. My job is to care for them to the best of my ability and I fully intend to do so by avoiding any extra stress!

Daryl has been an amazing daily dog sitter for our pup during the week! Our 6 month old puppy is a handful at times and full of energy and Daryl handled him wonderfully. She did exactly what we asked and sent lots of updates throughout her visits. It was such a good feeling to come home to a happy pup at the end of the day. I would highly recommend her to care for your fur babies .

About: I have had all kinds of pets growing up. I currently have three dogs of my own. Two girls and one boy. I also have worked at a pet store for the past 2 years providing pet care to 40+ puppies on a daily basis. Each of them are loved and cared for as if they were my own and I’ll be sure to do the same for yours! ❤️🐾 Because I work full time I only have two-3 days available for my provided services. Those days are usually Tuesdays and Fridays each week :) My pets free roam the house but I have a doggy gate blocking the steps or any “unsafe” areas. I also have pet cameras placed in the main parts of my home. And bedroom doors are always closed for their safety 💖

About: **Are you located outside of the service area, but I seem like a good match? Please reach out anyway, I'd love to speak with you and could be open to traveling a little further in some circumstances! Hi! My name is Amanda. Thank you for your attention to my Rover profile. I've had pets most of my life! Our family includes a 140lb special needs mastiff (Perro de Presa Canario aka, Canary mastiff), a 12lb Cairn terrier, a 50lb Staffy/boxer mix, and last but not least: a 7lb Dutchie/New Zealand house bunny aka, "The Queen". I am comfortable getting my hands dirty. I have a hard time resisting getting down on the ground everytime I meet someone's dog. It might be my toxic trait. I'm comfortable with bathing and light grooming including: brushing, nail care, and dental care. My availability revolves around my own pets and their needs, of which there are many—medication, walks, grooming, enrichment, etc.. Essentially, my life revolves around ensuring that theirs is one that is as fulfilling, and a far cry from the situations from which they were rescued, as possible. We have a fenced yard on an acre plot. Our bunny is litterbox trained and lives along side us as the beautiful queen that she is. Some people may call us obsessive, but we just love our pets and want to be the best custodians possible.

Samantha was the greatest. She gave my cat space while also making sure that she can leave her sent with him. She gave great ideas to help me because this is my first time having a cat sitter. She is so receptive and she gives great advice. She connected with my cat wonderfully, and I truly appreciate what she had done with feeding him and connecting with him. I will use her again. She is definitely my go to and I would highly recommend her.
