About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and have cared for pets since I was a child. I have experience walking and feeding dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I truly enjoy the energy and companionship they bring. I’m also comfortable with the essentials of playtime, cleanup, and making sure your pup feels happy and loved while you're away. In addition to dogs, I’ve cared for cats for years and currently share my home with two playful brothers, Toby and KitKat, who are 5 years old. Whether it’s a tail-wagging walk or quiet cuddle time, I treat every pet like family. I'm currently a freshman in college and not working at the moment. I have classes on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. The classes will take up the majority of those days, however, I will try my best to work with your schedules so I could care for your pets! I’d love to continue saving while also working with animals! When caring for dogs, I like to keep them within sight to make sure they stay safe and out of trouble. I also pay close attention to specific behavior, like standing by the door or near their food bowl, so I can respond promptly to their needs. With cats, I respect their independent nature, allowing them the space to do their own thing while making sure they always have fresh food, clean water, and a tidy litter box.

I’ll snuggle and play with the animals and give them love, affection and attention to ensure they are happy and at ease. I always follow directions so if you leave a detailed list it will be followed.

About: NJ Residents. I've been around dogs my entire life, including Labradors, Beagles, and Labrador mixes.

I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I'm comfortable walking, feeding/fresh water, administering medication, and showering your furry friend with love and attention. I'm an elementary school teacher with summers off, so I’m available for walks and drop-in visits Monday through Friday. Weekends can be arranged if needed. Please note, I won’t be available the week of July 21st, as I'll be out of state on vacation. Your furry companions are my number one priority. I’m committed to following all of your instructions closely and will ensure a safe, loving, and dependable environment for them. You can count on me to be reliable and attentive to their needs.

About: My name is Torie. I've had cats, dogs, birds, you name it, all of my life. I have had the joy of working as a dog bather/groomer for 12 years. I can't imagine life not being surrounded by animals. It feels really special making connections with dogs, and enhancing their lives. I look forward to meeting everyone and their furry companions! I am currently working part-time and have the availability to do visits and walks 2x per week. I am typically available Tuesdays and Fridays. I also have flexibility on Sundays. I always make sure I provide my dog with fresh water and food. I make sure he is walked multiple times per day, and given playtime in the yard. We also play hide and seek with treats in the house. My dog Bennett is my 8 year old child, and I would do anything for him!

About: Local to Riverton, I love to take my own pup on walks through the neighborhood. If you’re looking for a reliable dog walker, let’s chat! I currently work from home and make my own schedule. My availability and flexibility will help make it easy to align with your pet’s needs. I have a fenced in yard, a large dog crate, and a pet friendly home. I also love to offer toys and treats if permitted.

About: Hi! I'm Melissa! A little bit about me. Growing up, our family always had dogs and cats. Since the moment I was born, I was raised alongside dogs and cats and at one point in my childhood we had three large breed dogs and 2 cats at once, so fun and crazy! This always nurtured my deep appreciation for animals from an early age. One of our family dogs even had three litters of puppies during my teenage years, giving me hands on experience caring for dogs and puppies of all ages and sizes. Today, I have my own dog in my own family home, a 76 pound English Coonhound rescue from Arkansas. Despite his high energy levels, strength and tendency to pull on the leash, I handle him confidently and independently. I adopted him through Philly Rescue Angels Inc., where I am also an approved foster. Family and friends have relied on me for years from a young age to let out, walk, feed, and play with their dogs whether it be when they need help on short notice or go on an extended vacation. In addition to my experience with dogs, I’ve had cats throughout my life and have fostered them as well. One of my cats even needed daily insulin injections for diabetes and I always handled that myself. My background has given me a well rounded understanding of animal care, and I take pride in my ability to provide attentive, compassionate, and responsible care for all of your pets! Since I am a nurse, I also understand most medical conditions and medication administration and precautions for pets as well, they're more similar to us than we realize! I am a registered nurse whom only works 3 days per week. I am quite flexible in my schedule and can move around my days easily if requested! I have a fenced in yard. I have a friendly dog to play with your pup! And an extra large crate if you need your pet crated at all. Pets are allowed on furniture in my house as well!

“Nicole was wonderful all 3 of my dogs two goldens and husky mix thought they were going to be miserable when I got home but to our surprise they were all well behaved kudos to Nicole THANKS AGAIN FOR GREAT SERVICE”


About: Hi! Little bit about me :) I had a chihuahua for about 15 years so I understand what it takes to care for dogs at all stages in life. After my dog passed, I adopted a 8 month old puppy back in Nov 2022. Being a doggy mom is amazing and I love having a furry companion! I love going out on walks around the neighborhood and letting my dog meet new and old friends. I work from home Monday through Wednesdays but have a very flexible work schedule so i can scheudle a Rover job anytime during those days. Weekends I have availability as well. At home, i am typically always within view of my dog so she is never really alone. I use a camera in the living room to keep an eye out if I have to leave home or be in the basement etc. If it's a puppy or senior dog I am more likely to be attentive and be more by their side. For an adult dog, I'll give them their space and keep a consistent schedule to take on walks. I like to feed my dog healthy veggie treats throughout day and do some reinforcement training or give interactive toys to mentally exercise her.

Holmesburry-Torresdale pet parents share their Rover experiences
Julie did a wonderful job looking after our cat, Felix. He was shy with her initially, which we expected. But he warmed up to her as she fed him and played with him. Julie provided great photos and videos, which went a long way to comfort us pet parents missing our baby!
