About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and genuine love for all animals. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level—whether they’re energetic, shy, senior, or still learning. I’m attentive on walks, gentle during sitting, and always focused on safety, consistency, and positive interactions. I’m especially mindful with senior pets who may need slower walks, extra comfort, or medication reminders, and I’m patient with puppies who are still learning routines and leash manners. I communicate clearly with owners, follow care instructions closely, and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is simple: happy, relaxed pets and complete peace of mind for you. My open availability allows me to be hands-on and fully present, giving your pet(s) lots of attention and personalized care with patience love and consistency. I make sure your pet(s) feel safe, happy, and loved in their own home. I stick to their routine, give plenty of cuddles, play, and gentle attention, and make sure they’re comfortable every step of the way. You’ll get updates, photos, and lots of peace of mind while I care for your furry (or feathery!) family members.
“Kourtney is great with our dog! She updated us about his walk and sent some cute pictures. He is high energy but she is patient with him and understands his puppy personality. So thankful to know she’s around to help out with him.”

“She was great with sending updates of my dog. She also picked up all my dogs toys and put them away for me so the house looked cleaner then I left it after a very long day.”

About: i have plenty of experience with animals i helped train 2 of my golden retrievers and i trained all of the cats to go into the litter box. i’ve been around animals my entire life!! i currently have 3 dogs and three cats and chickens. so I’m very familiar with different personalities, routines, and energy levels. from playful and energetic pets to more shy or relaxed ones, I’m comfortable adjusting to what each animal needs. i understand how important it is to feel confident and at ease when leaving your pets with someone, and I always treat every animal like my own. i pay close attention to their routines and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times.
“Morgan is such a wonderful person and trustworthy pet-sitter/walker. She goes so far above and beyond to make sure my girls are taken care of. Could not recommend any higher!!”
About: I love caring for pets of all kinds (dogs, cats, fish, ducks, goats, chickens, etc.) and have been doing so professionally (for dogs) at a local enrichment and training center since 2022 under the guidance of a Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT-KA) and Dog Behavior Consultant. I’m very familiar with dog body language and communication as well as positive reinforcement training techniques. Since I was young, I’ve had a passion for animals and I love putting that into action as an adult! I’m always growing and learning to provide you with the best pet sitting experience possible. Would love the chance to meet you and your babies. Friday-Monday between the hours of 11:30 am and 4:30pm. If you work long hours and need someone to stop by, or you’re taking a day trip and need a drop in, or your pets only require one visit per day while you’re away on vacation for the weekend (cats, fish, amphibians, etc.) I’m your girl! It is an honor to care for your pets and to be welcomed into your home to do so. Because of this, I care for each pet as if they were my own. Additionally, it is one of my top priorities to respect your home. I am very detail oriented, so I will let you know of anything out of the ordinary!
About: I have been working in boarding facilities for over 3 years and I have been pet sitting for about 2 years. I absolutely love pets and enjoy spending time with them. I have experience in administering medication, dog training, walks and house sitting. I work at a boarding facility where I am with many pets daily in a daycare setting or just providing basic care as far as walking them, feeding and medicating them, keeping log of how they are potting and of course giving them lots of snuggles. I am soon going back to school and looking for a way to continue to do something I enjoy while being in school. When I visit your pets in your home my main goal is to provide the same amount of care and be very attentive as if they were my pet. I ensure the pets remain comfortable and abide by house rules (maybe not allowed to be on furniture or not allowed in certain rooms) while giving them lots of love and snuggles.
About: I am a work from home mom who loves pet sitting. I started this journey a few years ago, and has had the privilege of hosting several dogs of all ages, personalities and sizes. My children absolutely love animals, especially dogs, so there will be lots of cuddles and love from us. I take dog sitting very seriously, so I am very careful, and I always aim to please my pet parents, so I am always sending pictures, videos, and making sure your baby is happy and well taken care of. I am big on staying fit and healthy, so I take daily walks to get my steps in. I am very accommodating, so nothing is ever too much for me. I’ve had pet parents ask me to scramble eggs for their fur babies and put it on top of their dog food, and I’ve also had pet parents tell me to only feed their fur baby with a spoon, so please don’t hesitate to ask for any special request, because I aim to please! I work from home during the week and I have lots of down-time allowing me to interact and play with your fur baby . I am off during weekends and holidays I have a big house with an unfenced yard, and a loving family that will play and love on your fur baby. We will take daily walks, play outdoors, and have lots of play time and cuddles.
About: I have taken care of dogs really ever since I could remember/was able to. I have always grown up with at least three dogs in the house, ranging from very high energy, dogs, to very low energy dogs, also puppy and senior dog. I also have experience with more aggressive side dogs, like leash pulling, food aggressive, etc. I’ve seen it all! Shy dogs, scared dogs, crazy dogs, you name it! Nonetheless, absolutely love all the little fur-babies I meet I recently just moved to this area from Virginia. While things settle in place for me and my boyfriend, I am able to do pet care full-time. Hoping to use this opportunity to get to know the area more! In a client’s home, pets can become more territorial sometimes. So with that being known, I always enter a client’s home slowly, respectfully, but also sternly, making sure those boundaries are being set. And obviously also always having fun😊 in my home I will make sure your pet is comfortable, seen and cared for, and most importantly happy! Obviously indifferent environments, pets can be a little scared so in my home, we will take things slow and go on their time so they can get acclimated correctly.
About: I love dogs and have grown up with them since I can remember from a pug to a Great Dane (as well as many other animals). I live in a townhome complex and am a female 25. Looking to meet some new fluffy friends and give them some exercise and love while their owners are hard at work. I also have experience with other animals as well from gerbils, birds, cats and all size dogs. I am available for all pet sitting! I work from home currently but am flexible!! I am looking for flexible, one time possibly, but will take long term depending on the situation. I live in an apartment but I am a one minute walk from a dog park in the complex if you request your dog gets more exercise than a walk and even other dog socialization. I will keep a close eye and protect your dog as if they were my own.
Hopkins dog parents share their Rover experiences
Bayleigh is awesome with our girls. We are so grateful that Bayleigh was able to step in last minute while our regular walker was sick. Gladys was super happy to be able to get out and moving during midday while we were away and our cats also love to have Bayleigh come in and spend some time with them. We are super happy with using Bayleigh to care for our girls.
