“I was very nervous to leave my dog with someone for the first time but James exceeded my expectations he was very attentive to my dogs needs and sent me updates. My dog can be a handful but James was amazing. He was great and friendly and highly recommend!”


“Christine was incredible! We have used Rover for the last 5 years and Christine was the first person to send updates, photos, and really work with us on drop off and pick up. Our dogs came home so happy and were just so tired after a wonderful 4 days with Christine. You can tell they were loved on and had so much attention. Christine even dropped our dogs off at home because our schedule kept us from getting back into town really early. She was so wonderful and if she has availability the next time we need a Rover, Christine is my first person I will be reaching out to.”

“As a new travel nurse to the area, it’s important for me to find a sitter that meshes well with my dog who has separation anxiety. Caitlin was wonderful with my boy, provided updates, and I came home a happy/tired pup! Until next time, thank you Caitlin.”

“We had a wonderful experience, Shawn kept me up to date with pics and texts telling me how my pup was doing thru the trip. Very trustworthy and will definitely be booking another trip for Bentley soon with Shawn!”


About: I have a stay at home job where my hours are very flexible. I do have visits with clients that can last 1-3 hours but if I know that I’m caring for your dog I will do my very best to not schedule two visits in a day! I will spend lots of quality time with your dog and make sure it is getting more than enough love and care that it needs! I work in social work, so I usually have 2-3 visits per week that last between 1-3 hours. Other than that, and the other activities I spend my time doing, I will give your dog so much love when I am home! I am rarely ever gone for more than 3 hours at a time. I am available any day of the week on a normal week. I live at an apartment complex, but we are only on the second floor, have a good amount of space, and our complex even has a dog park!


About: Hi, I am Tricia and i have had dogs all my life. I love pets very much and have worked at local animal shelters. Working in animal welfare has graced me with all sorts of experience with all types of animal behaviors and personalities. I also have lots of animal medical experience. I have worked with animals with aggression, separation anxiety, seizures, deaf, shy and fearful and much more. I can also medicate animals in any way needed. I am experienced in giving shots and pilling animals. Basic training is something I like to work on with all animals as I believe it helps them not only build their confidence but also keeps their mind busy and wears them out! Please let me know if I can help you out! I am currently working from home meaning I can spend tons of time with your pups staying at my home! We also love to go get pup cups often! I have a fenced yard and dogs that also love other dogs. My house is centered around dogs with lots of comfy beds, toys and other fun stuff!

About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 15, starting with my family dog, and now I have Nacho, my big baby! Over the years, I've had the pleasure of dog-sitting many pups. My husband and I both love dogs, and Nacho loves them too! I believe discipline and training are key for dogs, and I always make sure to put in the effort to ensure my dog is well-trained. I'm proud to say that my dog trainer considers Nacho to be in the top 1%! 😎 I currently have two part time remote jobs that are very flexible. I have the ability to make most things work. Pet sitting would not be hard to fit into my routine. I have a fenced yard in my home. My house is located in a neighborhood with plenty of parks around. I also believe that following house rules is really important so I’m willing to be directed in whatever preference someone might have for their own home.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 20 years of experience caring for all kinds of pets. I grew up on a farm in a family that rescued, adopted, and loved a variety of animals. My first dog as a child treated me like I was her own puppy. I consider myself pretty special to have had two moms; one human, one labrador. That early connection shaped the deep love and respect I have for animals. As an adult, I’ve had two dogs. One with special needs and another who was with me for 15 wonderful years. Through him, I gained extensive experience with senior dog care and understand how to support their changing needs with patience and tenderness. Over the years, I’ve looked after pets for friends, family, and neighbors, and have fostered both dogs and cats. I take the time to make every animal feel safe, relaxed, and loved. Opening my home to care for others’ pets is a joy for me. Until I’m ready to adopt again, I enjoy having the opportunity to share my home, time, and heart with your furry family members. Whether your pet needs calm companionship or a cozy place to stay, I’m here to provide loving, reliable care. I’m currently working part-time from home. My flexible schedule makes it possible for me to provide lots of time to walking, boarding, care, and making up songs to sing to your dog about being a good dog. I have a fully fenced in yard and lots of indoor space. I live in a walkable area as well. I’m happy and able to follow any and all specifications you have for your pet. My home is a comfortable place for your dog to be as lazy or jazzed as they want to be while in my care.

About: I have been responsible for my dogs and cats since I was young, making sure they were happy and healthy during all stages of their lives. I am a stay at home mama of 1 with plenty of room and time to work around the needs of you and your little ones! We have plenty of toys for dogs, cats and a large backyard great for walks! Our home is spacious and safe for them to explore.

About: Hello! Please call me PARKER :) Use https://www.rover.com/sit/amandc27423 for money off your first service with me! I am a passionate animal lover with years of experience in dog sitting. My fiancé and I actually want to eventually open up our own, full time dog boarding at some point. I believe that every dog deserves love, attention, and care, which is why I strive to provide the best possible care for all the furry friends I look after. I understand that each dog has their own unique personality and needs, and I make it my priority to cater to those individual needs to ensure they are happy and comfortable while their owners are away. Especially the super shy ones/hesitant ones. Whether it's going for walks, playing in the backyard, or just cuddling on the couch, I love spending quality time with pups and forming special bonds with them. I am reliable, responsible, and dedicated to providing exceptional care for your beloved pup. Rest assured, your dog will be in good hands with me as their sitter. I can't wait to meet your furry friend and make sure they have a pawsitively wonderful experience with me! My fiancé and I both have hybrid work schedules, so your pup will never be alone :) As mentioned, my fiancé and I both have hybrid work schedules, so there’s never a time your baby will be alone- and will have all the attention and love. In my home or in a client's home, I provide personalized care for each pet based on their individual needs and preferences. I always ask the owners what they prefer/want for their pet so I can meet all expectations. Here are some of the ways I ensure the well-being and happiness of the pets under my care: 1. Feeding: I follow the pet owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, and dietary restrictions. I make sure to provide fresh water at all times and ensure that the pet's food and water bowls are clean. 2. Exercise: I engage pets in regular exercise and playtime to keep them physically active and mentally stimulated. This may include walks, play sessions, or outdoor activities in a secure and safe environment. An exercised pup is always a well-behaved pup ☺️ (that’s the trick) 3. Medication: If the pet requires medication, I am experienced in administering oral medications, topical treatments, or injections as per the veterinarian's instructions. Overall, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of the pets in my care, and I strive to create a loving and nurturing environment for them to thrive in. I treat each pet as if they were my own, and I am committed to providing the best possible care for them while their owners are away.
