About: Hello my name is Sophia! I have been taking care of my own pets for my whole life, not just cats and dogs. I am a full time college student that loves animals. I am a full time college student living at home I am available for visits in the mornings, some afternoons and always night. Though my schedule is busy I am always flexible. In my home, I provide a comfortable and pet-friendly environment for your furry friends. They will have their designated space, regular walks, playtime, and personalized care routines. In your home, I adapt to your pet's familiar surroundings, maintaining their routines, feeding schedules, and ensuring they receive the attention and love they need. My approach is flexible and tailored to meet the unique needs of each pet and client I serve.

About: I’ve been caring for animals of all shapes and sizes since I was a little girl growing up on my family farm. From horses and goats to chickens, dogs, cats, lizards—and even the occasional exotic pet—I’ve had hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals. My passion for animal care runs deep, and I bring that same level of dedication and love to every pet I meet. I look forward to connecting with you and learning how I can help care for your furry, feathered, or scaly family member! I’m currently open to all available positions, including overnight stays. After being laid off from my office job of six years a few months ago, I’ve shifted my focus to something I truly enjoy—caring for homes and pets. Since then, I’ve been house sitting for close friends and family, and have recently begun building a local client base for house sitting and weekday drop-in visits. I'm reliable, attentive, and committed to providing the same level of care I would want for my own home and pets. Welcome to a home where pets are treated like royalty! I provide loving, attentive care for both dogs and cats in a safe, happy environment. Dogs enjoy plenty of playtime, belly rubs, and exciting trips to the dog park. Cats are equally spoiled with toys, cozy spots to lounge, and all the affection they crave. Whether they have paws or whiskers, every pet in my care gets treated like family!

About: Throughout my life, animals and children have been drawn to my soft energy. I’ve had and been around dogs and cats all my life. I’ve been working with my giant schnauzer and friends’ dogs that range from rescued grey hounds to small mixed breeds. I am the go-to for any pet sitting for the fur babies. I’m an aunt to a female brindle kitty that is a sassy lady but loves to snuggle me when I visit. Additionally, I frequently watch a reactive grey hound and I am able to still provide the attention she deserves. I understand patience is key when working with people and animals. I currently am a travel Behavioral Therapist for children with autism. I travel to clients’ homes and usually am not gone for more than 5 hours including commute. My weekly schedule can vary but I am clear through with my communication and the expectations needed for any situation. I am typically a homebody who enjoys movies, games, and reading. When house sitting, I usually hang around with your fur baby and offer emotional support until you return. I’ll follow their lead and offer bids for connection. I stick to the routine schedule provided to me (feedings and potty breaks). While providing the known routine for comfort to the animal, I use this time to attempt pairing whether that be with pets of affection, extra treats (if allowed and within acceptable limit), or structured play time.

“Susan did a wonderful job taking care of my pets this weekend! She was able to schedule a meet-and-greet on short notice and was very thorough collecting the care instructions for my two large dogs and three cats. She was so patient with my very large and active Labradoodle and St. Bernadoodle. My dogs seemed very attached to her quite quickly and she did a fantastic job with them. She arrived promptly according to the care schedule, sent detailed updates and was extremely professional and lovely to work with. I am so happy to have found such an excellent sitter in my area and will gladly continue to rebook Susan!! Highly recommended!”

“Megan was so great with my large pup who has been anxious while her dad is away. I last minute needed help and Megan went out of her way to fit me into her schedule.

About: I am a nurse and am currently focusing on finishing my degree. I have always had a soft spot for dogs ever since I was a child. In the past, I exclusively cared for the pets of friends and family. I have recently joined Rover and am excited to turn that passion into reality. I have had my own dogs (3) for around 12 years and have cared for them in all aspects of life. I will treat your fur child as my own ❤️ I am a part time student so I will have plenty of time to spend with your dog. I have availability Monday - Thursday to accommodate most work schedules. Friday availability is limited but please ask. In short, my two dogs are my children; and I will treat yours as such. I would prefer to walk your dogs in your neighborhood so it is comfortable in familiar surroundings. However, I do drive a Jeep and live close to hiking trails that would be perfect for an on-leash walk. Of course that would be up to your comfort level. I look forward to meeting you and your pup!

About: I grew up on a farm taking care of farm animals of all ages, sizes, and species. I now own 2 kitties and 2 horses while I am finishing my masters in marine resource management! Being an animal person is kinda my thing! I spent 6 years of my life shadowing, volunteering, and near the end, working in vet clinics. It wasn’t until I went out to sea for NOAA that I realized I wanted to go into environmental studies. For now I can’t own my own dog due to the lack of a yard at my apartment, but dog walking seems like a great compromise! Not to mention, I have been walking horses around my entire life, which are basically large, unpredictable dogs. Dog walking would be lovely for me since I am in the middle of writing my thesis. Taking a break throughout my day is much needed for my personal sanity and productivity! Plus, dogs AND walking, say less. Since I have two cats my place is not the best for dogs that aren’t kitty friendly, but if I feel comfortable with a dog I don’t mind bringing them over. I house sit for the gals at my barn now, plus I’ve house sat all throughout high school and undergrad. Following directions and being respectful are extremely important to me.

“Claire was prompt and professional. She communicated well when issues arose with our schedule. Thank you Claire”

About: I love all animals more than I can even grasp, and nothing is too big of an ask for them. I’m a larger man so if they need to be picked up to be brought outside or anything were I would have to go the extra mile for them, I gladly will. My schedule isn’t the hardest to work around so you let me know what works best for you and I’ll handle the rest!! I’m mainly free during the week but working weekends doesn’t scare me. Ill make sure your pet gets more then enough play time, nothing is worse then having energy you can’t do anything with! Long walks don’t bother me at all and if your pet has toys I’ll find there favorite one!

About: I have always had neighbors, friends, and family rely on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets when they are unable to. I always seek out any opportunity to meet new furry friends, such as volunteering at the local humane society and joining the Rover community. I am out of college for the summer, so my days are mostly available. I do have an obligation on Tuesdays and Wednesdays that takes up the morning and afternoon of those days. I do not have a fenced in yard, but the yard that I do have is a very open area that can be roamed around, on-leash of course. I have a furry friend of my own that would love to keep your fur baby company. I don’t mind accommodating to the individual needs of your fur baby, such as following a specific diet, crating them, etc. I can promise you that I’d treat your fur baby as if it was my own!

About: I worked for a local dog breeder for 2 years. There I took care of all dogs and I was the trainer for them! I also groomed and gave haircuts to the dogs I have also owned cats my entire life and I have some equine experience! Pet care is very important. Although we as humans cannot just lay on the couch most days and be with our fur baby’s! our pets need someone for company to get them off the couch and active. I have whole lots of time to make sure your fur baby is getting the attention they need when fur moms and dads are busy In clients homes I will be consistent with their fur baby’s always paying attention to their needs and keeping the pets and pet parents happy!

“Margo did an awesome job with Penny! She kept me updated and sent pictures everyday! I knew talking with Margo that she will be good with Penny in helping her training. She also sent me an article on one of my house plants that is poisonous to dogs! I had no idea ? I recommended her to all my friends and I have already booked Margo for another week ☺️?”
