About: I have been around dogs my entire life! I have taken care of my own dogs and the dogs of family and friends for 10 years. I love playing with dogs so they get all their energy out! I have taken care of elderly dogs and dogs with special needs, so I know all the tricks for giving medications. I am currently on summer break from grad school so I can give all of your pets the love and attention they need! I am very flexible with my schedule currently. I stay aware of my surroundings and never take a dog off-leash. In my own home I keep doors closed, never risking a runaway animal. In clients homes I follow instructions closely and am sure to keep the owners updated. I send plenty of pictures and updates throughout the day and after every visit.
“Ebony is a lifesaver!!! Took care of our four pets for 3 days super super last minute — she is super communicative, sends pictures often, and took our dogs on a walk daily. I have a kitten and she took special care of him. Took extra time to make sure each pet felt comfy with her. She’s our go-to sitter now!”
“Thank you Mario for meeting with Buster. He absolutely loved you!!! He cannot wait to see you next week. Mario has a very calm demeanor and listened attentively to all of our instructions. We have already booked several dog visits with him.”
About: I just got out of the Army after 8 years and had my best friend with me the whole way, a German Shepard named Mac. Sadly he passed about a year ago and I would love to have a new companion but I'm going back to school in the fall and need to focus on that. However, in the mean time I have the whole summer free to care for other's dogs. I live in a house with a large, fenced in yard and all the free time in the world. I'd love to have a dog to play with a d go on walks with. I currently have no obligations until January so I can devote 100% of my time and energy to your pup. Their care will be my full-time job. I have a large, fenced in yard and no other pets or children. I live on a large street perfect for walks and near the rail trail too.
“I can’t recommend Iliana enough! Her communication is impeccable, keeping me updated throughout the day with messages and adorable photos of my pups and chickens. It was such a relief to know my dogs were in good hands.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years and know firsthand how important consistent, detailed care can be. My own dog has GI issues and requires a very specific diet, medication, and feeding routine, so I’m very comfortable following special instructions and keeping a close eye on changes in appetite, behavior, and routine. As a registered nurse, I’m dependable, observant, and used to being detail-oriented. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, medications, playtime, litter box care, and plenty of updates and photos while you’re away. I work a set nursing schedule and have availability on select weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and can be flexible with drop-ins, walks, feeding times, and medication schedules when planned in advance. I take pet care seriously and always follow the owner’s instructions closely. I pay attention to feeding, medications, bathroom habits, behavior, and anything that seems out of the ordinary. I’m careful with doors, leashes, gates, and each pet’s individual routine, and I’ll send updates and photos so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.

Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, medications, lots of cuddles, or just someone to keep them company, I’ll provide them with loving, dependable care. As an added bonus, I can also provide basic grooming services during visits, including baths, brushing, nail trims, and ear cleaning if requested.

About: I’ve had animals my whole life and have always genuinely enjoyed caring for them and treating them as if they were my own. I am gentle, loving, trustworthy and dependable. I adapt quickly and comfortably to each pet’s individual needs and routine. I’m happy to provide walks, feedings, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I’ve also worked for the past six years caring for children and adults with autism and other intellectual and physical disabilities. My experience as a caregiver has taught me patience, attentiveness, responsibility, and, most importantly, how important it is to have someone you can truly trust caring for someone you love. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my #1 priority. I also want to build a relationship with them so they feel safe, comfortable, and just as loved while in my care as they do with their family. ❤️ I currently have open availability, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to care for & play with your pets! I’m available throughout the week and on weekends and can easily accommodate different schedules.

About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. Starting with dogs, cats, pigs, cows, goats and fish. Caring for a pet builds patience, empathy, and unconditional love. In addition to caring for my personal pets I also help take care of dogs with our neighbors before and at work with one dog and two cats. I’m currently working part time after school hours Monday to Thursday so basically free during the day and can work all day Friday plus weekend if needed but it really depends on the time or day you need I will accommodate. I have a small backyard and extra room which we normally call sunroom for now with one of my dogs that can accompany your dog. I can easily crate your dog as well if needed. I have one in my house that my dog stopped using for a while.
About: I have raised many puppies in my 10 years of experience. I like to take my dog and other fluffs on long walks through different parks and hiking trails. We always start the day with a high energy run/play at the park to get as much exercise in as possible. Throughout the day we go on shorter more frequent walks to keep her using the potty and help stay active. Our nightly walk consists of a long walk around our neighborhood to get out any extra energy so we can have a great nights sleep! I like to reward with treats and I don't mind animals on the furniture. Currently, I am a stay-at-home mom which makes me able to care for fluffs all day long. I still like to get in my exercise and taking the fluffs with me help keep me busy. I have a 4 month old puppy of my own who has MANY toys and places to sleep. She is very outgoing and house trained. I have space to crate your fluff baby if you'd like - please bring your own crate. I can also do basic puppy training as well - sit, lay, stay, handshake etc. I will also provide pictures and videos throughout our stay!
About: I've been surrounded by and taken care of animals my entire life, and I want to be your new trustworthy pet sitter or dog walker! I have a standard poodle named Remy and maine coon cat named Bash at home, and they are my everything. I've fostered kittens (as young as 2.5 weeks old) for six years now and have been a petsitter for longer. I'm great with people and even better with cats and dogs. I want to keep your pets safe and happy, and you worry-free! I can administer medicine, trim nails, walk any size dog, clean, monitor urine and stool output, keep track of mood and general signs for concern, and I love sending cute update pictures so you know your pets are thriving! I just graduated with my master’s in occupational therapy and I’m studying for my boards, so my days are free and I’d love to sit for you or care for your pets however you need! I'm great at following directions and problem-solving, and I'll do whatever I can to make sure you're comfortable with me entering your home to care for your pets. I understand different types of collars, leashes, and equipment needed to guarantee a pet's safety. I am very aware of my surroundings and good at reading a pet's energy and potential reactivity. I've had animals my entire life, so closing the door quickly and not letting pets out is second nature to me. I know your pets are your family, and I will treat them as such!
About: I've had dogs all my life and wouldn't have it any other way. My dogs and I are always outside hiking, swimming, or playing in the yard. I've been a dog sitter of all ages, sizes, and breeds over the last 8 years. Fun loving adventure is a motto I like live by.

“I’m a first time user of Rover and I can’t say enough great things about my experience. Francine P took the most amazing care of my two needy, nervous and sometimes difficult chihuahua’s. Francine went above and beyond with them and I felt so relaxed while I was on vacation. She was on time and went the extra mile when watching them. She sent my daily photos of my two Puppies and made them feel so loved while I was away. I am so pleased with the service I received and I would recommend Rover and Francine to anyone. I plan on using Rover and Francine P again.”
