“Kimball is wonderful! She happily met our pup beforehand and was very professional and attentive to her needs. She did a great job of walking her and loving on her, making sure she got a good walk in while we are at work.”
“This was a repeat booking with Taylor and my dog Bizzy loved every moment of it! She was very responsive and made sure to send me pictures and videos after every walk. Taylor fed and played with my dog and I could tell he had a blast. We look forward to booking again!”
“Melissa was great with communicating! She asked to meet up right away so Enzo could become acclimated with her. She sent photos during their walk and after so I was able to feel relief from having to leave Enzo alone while I was out of town for the day. I would absolutely use her services again!”

“Kelsey is so sweet with our German shepherd! She is very responsive in communication and gives us such peace of mind when she came by to take him out for walks on days we both had to work. I would hire her again anytime and would recommend her to anyone!”

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs through every age. I’m passionate about the positive benefits of being outside so I’d love to take your pet on walks or just chill with them outside while they sniff the flowers. I’m a full time health care employee. I’m available on Sundays, Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Hire me to come check in and hang out with your pet while you’re away. At this time I am offering to come to your house to sit and stay with your pet during the day. I’m offering socialization, cuddling, and enrichment through walking and play time.

About: I grew up with dogs and cats, have fostered in the past, and continue to care for my friend’s pets while they are away. I am open to house-sit, drop in, or go on however long of a walk your best friend needs. I have a lot of experience taking care of pets in their own homes, making sure they are safe and comfortable. I have experience with different breeds and temperaments - cuddlers, partiers, grouches, and loungers all deserve love! I can’t wait to spend time with your best friend and give you peace of mind. I work full time, but work from home Mondays and Fridays. Currently I could do drop-ins and walks anytime Fridays through Mondays. For Tuesday through Thursday, I would only be available early morning and evening. I’m available any day for house sitting stays which includes overnight care in your home with evening and morning routines. We can discuss if midday drop-in or walk are needed on the days i’m in the office. Drop-ins include feeding, water refresh, play/potty time, and quick updates. Walks include a 30-minute walk at your dog’s usual pace, leash handling, water refill if needed, and notes to the owner. If your dog needs longer than 30 minutes, Incan also do a longer walk for an hour. I make a point to ensure pets are following their schedules and any training they are working on. I always make sure to double check any needs/wants with the owner, to make sure pets are at their most comfortable. Let me know how your pet thrives in their environment, the more details the better! I will keep you updated on anything you specifically ask, or of any questions I might have that will help me get to know your pet better.
About: I've been taking care of dogs almost my whole life, and cats for at least 10 years. I'm most experienced in taking care of bigger dogs, but can do smaller as well. For age, I've had puppies, seniors, and everything in-between. Neighbors, family, and friends have always enjoyed whenever I take care of their loved animals. I currently have a mostly open availability, especially on week days. I take care of mine, and my roommates pets on the daily, and would have plenty of time to come take care of yours too! I would not be able to board in my home, but I am more than willing to stay as long as needed in your home to give your pets the best care I possibly can. I would follow your instructions on your specific pets care routine, and ask any questions I have. As well as walks, I can play with your pets or give them space.
About: Greetings! I’m Brittany, and I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I’ve always believed every pet deserves patient, detail-oriented care — especially those with special health needs or medical concerns. My own pets have taught me just how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your fur babies. I currently have 6 pets of my own, (4 of which are ones I grew up with so do they live with my parents, but 2 on my own!) so chaos, cuddles, and personality are no stranger to me on a daily basis. I work well with all personalities, from shy and anxious to bold and playful. I pay close attention to routines, medications, and comfort levels, and I treat every pet like my own. A little about me: 🌿 I’m a nurturing, observant, and calm caregiver 🐈⬛ I have experience with senior pets, rescues, and animals with anxiety 💕 I’m comfortable administering meds or following detailed care instructions ❤️ I’ll keep you updated with photos, messages, and peace of mind while you’re away I can ensure your pets will be in loving, capable hands — and probably spoiled with extra attention. 💕 I currently freelance part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for pets. I don’t drive due to a health condition, so I focus on local clients and quality, consistent care. Pet care has always been a big part of my life — I’ve cared for animals for years, long before joining Rover. This platform just makes it feel more natural and fitting to do what I already love every day. 💗 I have a calm, grounded presence that helps even the most anxious pets feel at ease. I approach every animal with patience and empathy — trust is earned, not expected. My goal is for your pet to feel genuinely cared for, not just supervised.
About: I have been passionate about animals my entire life, starting with pet sitting at the age of 10. Over the years, I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals, including horses, cows, dogs, and cats. This hands-on experience has given me a deep understanding of animal needs and behavior. Additionally, I graduated with a degree in Animal Science from Kansas State University in May of 2023, further enhancing my knowledge and expertise in animal care. Whether it's a small pet or a larger animal, I bring both professional training and a lifelong love of animals to every pet sitting opportunity. I currently work full-time in a hybrid setting, with my office days Tuesday through Thursday. This allows me to be home and available to care for your pets from Friday to Monday, where I work remotely from my laptop. With plenty of free time over the weekend, I’m able to give your furry friends all the attention, playtime, and love they deserve! I have a spacious, fenced-in backyard where your pets can enjoy plenty of outdoor fun and playtime in a secure environment. I also have two friendly dogs of my own, who are great at keeping other pets company and making them feel right at home. Additionally, I understand that some pets prefer to stay in their own environment, so I’m flexible and more than happy to provide pet sitting services at your home if that’s what’s best for your furry companions.
“She is thee best with Topanga and training her how to jog with her! Something that this young 2 years old need while I get beat up in corporate world. Providing a better life for the both of us. Also made me comfortable that she have American bulldogs too!”

About: I’ve been taking care of my own pets for a decade and love playing and interacting with them. I try to make a comfortable environment for them to live safely and happily. I’m a teacher on summer break who loves staying home with my own dog and cats and happy to help take care of yours when you need it! Fenced yard was the first addition we made when moving in because I know how important it is for dogs to get some unrestrained outdoor time. Plenty of rooms and lounging spots. My pets can be secluded if needed for a stress-free stay. My partner occasionally works from home and loves dogs as well so your pet will have a bonus person to play with :)
About: "I speak Dog and Cat fluently! My passion is creating a positive, loving environment for animals while prioritizing self-care and surrounding myself with uplifting energy. I believe in going beyond the basics to ensure every pet feels truly cared for. From exploring new, exciting adventures—not just the same park every time—to offering healthy homemade treats and prioritizing fun at every opportunity, I make every moment special. "Check us out on Instagram & Youtube 👇 "TheGoodDogFoodCompany" Im available and flexible to focus on helping others with their animals, and I love it! Call me, I can help! My hours vary, but I can always find time to assist. "I have a truck designed for the safe and comfortable transport of animals inside the cab—never in the bed. Always a perfect outdoor excursion to run and play safely on or off leash in enclosed areas.
About: I've been relied upon by neighbors for years to dog-sit, dog-walk, and pet-sit for cats as well. I'm a big lover of all animals and grew up with dogs, cats, and even chickens! I started caring for these animals at an early age, handling tasks such as feeding, scooping litter, picking up dog droppings, and cleaning the chicken coop. We have an old cat with kidney and heart problems ourselves who needs to be pilled and have a cream applied to his ear twice a day. I understand how our pets are, quite literally, additional family members to the household, and I recognize the importance of ensuring they are loved and cared for, just like all of us!!! I’m a huge fan of walking and this fits into my daily and weekly routine. I also love the social aspect of meeting new people and pets are ALWAYS the best way to meet new people! I can easily drive to your home to walk your dog in the your neighborhood. I’m gentle, friendly and love a big scratch on an animals bottom(if they are welcome to it of course!)
About: I grew up in a cat and dog household. My parents over the years have had four dogs. Ranging from pit mixes to labs. I often times pet sit for my friends whenever they go out of town. I have three of my own cats. My oldest cat is a senior at 16 years, my second is five years old, and my youngest is a seventh month old kitten. My cats have their own dietary restrictions so I understand the importance of respecting a strict pet diet. I often times pet sit for family and friends. Including overnights with their dogs. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to pet it! I love going on walks and runs. I live in the river market area and typically take my friends dogs out for walks at the riverfront. I am able to do overnights. I am unable to house any pets in my apartment. However, I can spend as much time with your fur babies in your home! I have my phone on me at all times for open communication and plenty of photos of your pup or kitty!
About: Dogs have been in my family ever since before I was born. Ive grown up with as many as 10 dogs at a time and currently own 4 of my own. Ive always enjoyed the company of dogs aswell as taking care of them. I also currently work at a shelter and I'm very well versed in dog body language and defensive/reactive dogs. I'm willing to work through your pups quirks! I currently work full time but I'm available Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday for walks/drop in visits! I have lots of availability on my off days as I dont have much going on at the moment. I'd be happy to accommodate whatever your pet needs at the drop in visits/walks. I'm currently not offering boarding/daycare at my home due to one of my pups isn't dog social but I'm happy to make your pup as comfortable as possible while I'm there!
“Nisa is just great! She walked my dog a couple miles a day and wore him out, just what I wanted! She is very friendly and follows directions very well. She arrived on time and was prompt in responding to texts for scheduling. I highly recommend her!”
