About: Hey there, I'm Emily! I've been around dogs since I was little, they've been in my family and I even trained our new puppy when I was in high school. I’ve volunteered in an animal shelter for 4 years. I’ve taken animal science classes and have learned animal CPR. I also know how to take care of reptiles as I have a few of my own! I also have experience with small mammals such as rabbits, ferrets, sugar gliders, mice, rats and more. Clients can count on me to feed, play with, and be attentive to your pets needs. I currently have a part-time job, so I have more time to look after your pet companions! I am available during the day Mon-Wed, and anytime after 6pm Thurs-Saturday. I have enough energy to play with your dog or cat! I have patience if they are skittish or need a little extra time near strangers. And if your pet companion has scales, I can feed them when they need it and look after its well being and needs.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds, including my own, since I could walk. I have a 2 year old lab and 14 year old lab, so I'm very good with both puppies and seniors! I'm currently working remote on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I'll have plenty of time to drop in and play. Once the school year starts, I'm a law student so I'll also have plenty of time outside of class! I can do whatever is needed to keep your pet safe and happy in your home, whether you have a fenced in yard or no yard at all.

About: I’ve helped take care of and train dogs of various sorts and sizes since I can walk along with my dad. I’ve gotten my love for animals as a whole from him and it’s the perfect therapy and job. Having many dogs, cats, birds, turtles, fish and pet crabs throughout my life has helped me to have an extra sense of care, love, and attention for all animals. I’m currently working part-time, so I’m available to play, train, and care for your lovable furry friend 7 days a week from 8am to 2pm and 9pm to 12am. I have a fenced front yard and backyard for your lovely pets to freely roam and play with me. I also have a 7 year old Shih Tzu and a 2 year old cat (both females) whom are very loving, calm, and ecstatic to meet a new friend. A crate is available upon request as well.

“This was our first time using Rover and Alexis put us totally at ease leaving our cat in her care. Alexis was kind enough to stop by a few days before to meet us and our cat. Our skittish former-street cat took to her immediately, curled up with her, and Alexis was great at not only feeding her, but providing companionship a lnd many pets/scratches. She sent great Rover Cards and sweet photos. I would 100% use her again!!”


“Angela was fantastic! She came over to meet us and our pets and exchange information prior to our weekend away. She followed our directions, spent quality time with our pets, gave lots of feedback (which is really important to us) and photos, and left the house in good condition. We will definitely be using her services again. Can't say enough good things about our experience!”


About: I have a miniature schnauzer who I trained and raised from a puppy. I’m looking to gain more experience with all kinds of dogs. I am very interested in fostering later in life and I am missing my pup while I’m away at school. I know life can be hectic so I am excited to help anyone out a little and meet some new pets in my free time! I am working part time and in school. I work mostly mornings and have classes mon/wed right now but after 12:00 on most days I am free and looking to fill that time earning a little extra money and spend time with some furry friends! I know every pet is different and needs different things. I am very flexible and happy to cater to different situations as they come. I enjoy walking and exercising so I am happy to do long and short walks, parks and more. I have an anxious dog myself so I understand some pets need a little space when meeting new people and new environments. I’m looking to give your pets the best experiences possible and listen to any instructions you may have for them.

“This was my first time utilizing Rover and I cannot emphasize enough how awesome Karina was taking care of my cat, Eleanor. Karina sent me detailed descriptions about each of her visits to include many sweet photos and videos of my cat. Karina was always on-time, followed the instructions well, and even helped sweep up litter that my cat would track around. Karina was responsible, responsive, kind and I would recommend her taking care of your pet 100%. Will definitely hire Karina again for my next trip!!!”

Zachary C.
“I've known Zach for a few years and know he would make an excellent dog sitter+dog walker. He took care of his senior golden retriever in her final years and was always very attentive to her needs. He has dogsit for us several times (we have a small Maltipoo) and has always given lots of love. He's also a smart and hard working guy who's capable of following directions (E.g around feeding, walking, play, etc). In my experience animals also warm up to him quickly as he has a chill vibe and comforting presence. No reservations at all that he'll do an amazing job with pets of any size and age, and your pets will have a great time with him.”

Anne L.
“Anne is a quintessential dog lover. She adores our German shepherd Apollo and the dog is indeed her greatest friend. She has taken really good care of him, watches his diet like a hawk, his very hygiene strictly and has taught him very valuable manners especially in dealing with strangers. I would highly recommend Anne to entrust your pet to a very sincere pet lover.”
