“Alli was terrific. I needed last minute help with stopping in to walk my dogs. She was a great communicator, was wonderful with my older girls, and I would highly recommend. Thank you!”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, so caring for them has always been second nature to me! I love going on walks, throwing the ball until we’re both tired, and working on little training sessions with treats and a clicker. What I enjoy most though, is getting to know each dog’s personality. I’m always curious about what makes them tick. Why do they carry the same toy everywhere? Why do they love one person and bark at another? Why is the vacuum their greatest enemy? 🤣 Over the years I’ve spent time with dogs of all different personalities and energy levels, and I’ve learned that no two are exactly alike. Taking the time to learn their routines, quirks, and favorite things is one of my favorite parts of caring for them. ❤️ There’s just something special about earning a dog’s trust and watching them get excited to see you. 🥹 I’m usually available after 5pm on weekdays and have a much more flexible schedule on weekends. Whether your dog needs a walk, a potty break, some playtime, or just a friendly face, I’d love to help. ❤️🐶 I’ll always keep you in the loop with updates and pictures so you can relax knowing your pup is getting lots of attention and care while you’re away. ☺️ I pretty much just follow your dog’s lead!! Before the visit, I’d love to hear ALL about them! What they like, what they don’t like, their routine, their weird little habits, all of it.🥰 If they want to play fetch, we’ll play fetch. If they want a walk, we’ll go on a walk. If they want to lay on the couch and get pets while I tell them how cute they are, I can easily do that too. 🤣🥰

“Lexi was amazing. I never doubted her ability to address any issue that might arise in my absence. Her communication was daily and kept me abreast of any concerns. She was proactive in predicting potential upcoming challenges and sought solutions so everything went smoothly. Lexi is very professional and met all the expectations I laid out for her before her assignment.”

“Absolutely wonderful. Never had to worry about what my girls were up to to or how they were doing. Rachael kept me well informed while I was out of town. Definitely, I will schedule again.”

About: I’ve house sat, animal sat, and dog walked since I was a teen for friends and family. I grew up on a small farm in middle of nowhere Alaska, so I have gotten to experience taking care of multiple different types of animals. I love all furry friends and even have a cat of my own, her name is Nina she is 3 years old and my best friend. If you choose me to look after your fur pal, I promise to love and care for them as if they were my own! I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time on my hands and would love to share it with your fur pal! I am available for walking and house/animal sitting. Integrity and honesty are my biggest policies. Communication is always a must, even about the little things to ensure the safety of you, your fur baby, and your home.
“Our kitties loved Tim, and they were very happy and calm when we returned home. He provided lots of play time for the younger cats, and lots of photos while we were away. I think they were disappointed it wasn't Tim when we walked in the door!”

About: My own furry family consists of 3 wolverines (chihuahuas), 1 pit/boxer mix, 3 horses, 2 cats and a gaggle of happy, laying hens. As a lover of ALL animals, you can trust your furry family members to my care. I currently work in healthcare, and I am very blessed to work three days per week, leaving me with abundant free time to enjoy the outdoors. With a wide variety of animals, caring for them is of utmost importance. I remain knowledgeable in animal behaviors, wound management, illnesses and preventative vet care.

“Kayla was great! She was friendly and immediately loved on our cat during our initial meet and greet! She was prompt with her drop ins and kept us well informed while we were away! Her report cards were fun to read and she always included great pics to let us know the cat was well taken care of!”

About: I have cats and dogs my whole life and I've learned a lot about them. Growing up as a child I learned many things from my mom teaching me about our animals, and wanting to know more because of my love for them. I give animals all the love I have, everytime I see a dog or cat I instantly want to pet them! My love for your animal(s) will be like you loving your own! I am currently working on a flexible schedule so I will have plenty of time to help with your animals! I am pretty open everyday but some things might depend on the day! I haven't yet but I would take care of your animal like my own. I currently have two cats and I love them so much! I would love your pets just as much not only at my house but also when I'm with them in your home!
About: We have been pet sitting for friends and colleagues for 2 years so thought why not join Rover and do more! Our clients love my family and we love their pets so it makes perfect sense. I have 4 kids, a small dog and two cats and my small pets just hide if a visiting pet is too much for them otherwise they don't get bothered or bother anyone else, human or pet! I work from home and I have 4 kids who love cats and dogs and love to help out with the dogs that we already provide services for. We are trusted with hideaway keys to homes to let dogs out and we run them in fenced in yards to burn energy. Then we make sure they have food and water and kennel them if applicable before we leave. In our house, visiting pets are watched over by all members of the family. Sometimes we buy them their own special toy to play with. We make sure they eat and get any meds they might need.
About: With a lifelong ownership of dogs and cats, my experience expanded into rescue fostering in 2021. During this time, I have successfully handled pets that deal with separation anxiety, reactivity, handicaps, and limited obedience/cooperation. I am genuinely excited to learn more about your pet(s), their specific care requirements, and their quirks. I’d love to have responsibility of being your trusted caretaker while you’re away! I am currently working fully remote so am able to do all activities through the weekdays, and have flexible hours on weekends. I’m available to accommodate your schedule to the best of my ability. My home is pet-free, ensuring a comfortable environment for your pet(s), especially if they don’t get along well with other animals. Drawing from my experience with reactive dogs, I am experienced in implementing safety measures during outdoor walks or encounters with other animals.
About: I started off my experience with pet sitting 10 years ago with 2 Bichon dogs. They required a lot of care and I loved every minute I spent with them. I had a dog growing up and she was my pride and joy. When pet sitting, I make sure that I give the pets attention and love that I would like to give my own pet. When pet sitting, I typically have the dog come to me or I can do drop in visits to your home. I can also spend the day going on walks and relaxing with your dog. I do not have a dog of my own, but I do have a lot of experience interacting and caring for all kinds of dogs. I am a teacher, so I have the summer off to be able to take care of your dog during morning and afternoon. I can also take them on long walks. I plan to make sure that your dog gets what they need. For example, make sure that they have food and water. Also, provide them time to be outside and to be active if needed.
“Molly did an amazing job looking after my 2 cats. She went above and beyond dealing with my difficult diabetic kitty. I can't thank her enough for all the tricks and tactics she did to get my cat a shot when he was being resistant.”

“This was our first time using Rover and Allison went above and beyond taking care of our two cats while we were out of town!! She sent us pictures and kept us updated every day. We will definitely book with her again in the future!”
