About: I've owned and taken care of dogs my entire life and know from experience they are truly family. My goal is to always treat them that way. Whether your pup is social or shy, energetic or a couch potato, I'm ready :) I'm up for talking them for walks, playing in the yard, getting some energy out, or just hanging if that's their speed. I am currently off for the summer so my availability is very flexible. I will have my son with me at times, but he is very used to dogs. My pup is my furbaby, as is yours. Whatever your house rules are for the yard, furniture, or anything else, I'll follow that. I'm comfortable with leads, crates, or regular leashes.
About: I have taken care of all different types of dogs for varying amounts of time and looking forward to taking care of many more ! As a college student, I’m hoping to take care of your furry friend over breaks and weekends here and there when I am free ! I love a schedule and organization so if you give me instructions, I am all over that! I will try my hardest to stick to your dog’s routine!
“Alicia did a phenomenal job! She was very communicative, punctual, professional, and took some great photos of our dog on his walk. We will definitely be requesting her services in the future. We were happy that Jett did all his tricks and commands for her 😀”

About: I am an enthusiastic and active animal lover with over 20 years experience. We live across from the Loch Raven reservoir within walking distance of many hiking trails. We enjoy playing with our pets in our fenced in backyard as well as taking nature hikes on the many trails across from us. Growing up, we had a dog and two cats. Currently, I delight in taking care of our 10 year old cat and 3 year old dog! I love being active with animals and walking them. Our house and yard are very pet friendly! I also am comfortable with admin of needed meds and grooming. The pets who stay with us are welcomed as part of the family. For boarding, we can accommodate one dog per night. We do not board cats. We have a fenced in backyard with about an acre of land. We have a 3 year old dog who is friendly. We have a shy 10 year old cat who will hide from other animals that she doesn’t know. We have hens, but they are fenced in completely.
“Brian took great care of my girl, Lemon! He made sure the plan for Lem was super clear beforehand, which I especially appreciated since the schedule I gave him to complement my friend's visit schedule was not perfectly regular, and he didn't miss a visit! He also had to deal with a terrible cold spell, but when he couldn't walk Lemon for more than 5 minutes at a time (about all she can tolerate when it's that cold), he took her for two short walks to make sure she did all her business and then played ball with her in the house. We came home to a dog who, while happy to see us, was clearly doing just fine without us, which is all I can ask for :)”

“Sadie is very kind and paid close attention to all information I gave her, including training I'm currently working on with my pup, and continued to follow that training on their walks. Sadie sent lots of pictures and I could tell that my pup obviously had a great time. I would gladly have Sadie take care of my pup in the future and would recommend her to others.”

About: I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, donkeys, goats, chickens, ferrets, hamsters, etc. I’m used to being in households with multiple animals. I have a Boston Terrier that I consistently walk. I don’t currently have a job I’m full time pet sitting. However I do take jobs outside of rover and have occasional plans or trips but I’m very flexible. I have a Boston Terrier who I let out on a leash and take on walks around the neighborhood. He typically sleeps in his crate.
About: Hello, I’m Sabrina! I have always been involved in animal care spaces. I volunteered as a behavior volunteer for several years at Friends For Life Animal Shelter, where I learned about canine and feline behavior. I am certified in canine and feline CPR and first aid through PetTech! Your furry friend is always safe with me! Last summer, I worked as a canine care attendant at The Barking Muse where I walked dogs, monitored day care, facilitated activities and basic training, and cared for our boarders! I’d love to continue my pet care journey with you! Currently, I’m a college student home for the summer, so my schedule is wide open! I’d love to fill my time by providing quality pet care! I always meet the pet where they’re are at. I will never force a pet to anything it doesn’t want to and believe in understanding their behavior and boundaries. Through this method I’ve successfully addressed anxiety in both cats and dogs and formed meaningful connections!

About: Hi, my name’s Leo and a I’ll be looking after your pet. New to Los Angeles, I grew up in the Baltimore area with a Cocker Spaniel named Buddy. Five years ago, my family took in a Border Collie/Shetland Sheepdog named Lady. In the last seven years, I've often house sat for neighbors and taken care of their dogs, yard work, and any other animals they may have, typically when they were away for vacation. I currently live with my cat Sampson and only get to see our family dog Lady when I return to Maryland to visit my parents, so I'd very much love to take care of your dog to feel a little more at home. I would be thrilled to take your dog for walks or jogs, do drop in visits throughout the day, or house sit for you! I make my own schedule so I can be flexible to fit yours. I will do my best to accommodate your schedule if last minute changes are needed. I live in a studio apartment with my cat, so I likely will not be boarding animals with me at this time unless it is another small cat. My cat tends to keep to himself so he will not bother your cat.
“Great and reliable dog walking. He is great with communicating and answering any concerns you have while away. My pup loves him, and Curtis seems to genuinely enjoy their time together as well. I would recommend Curtis 1000000%”

About: I am a school teacher and a life-long animal lover and have had pets since I was a young child. I currently have 3 dogs (and a horse). Two of my dogs have their intermediate trick titles and also compete and do well in agility. The third is an older deaf rescue. I am experienced with handling and also training dogs. During the summer, I have worked with a local company for 8 years for dog walking as well as dog/cat sitting for vacation clients. Through word of mouth I've had training clients and hope to add that service through Rover. I also I am fairly new to Rover since my availability depends on when school is in session. I am a teacher so I am available all summer for walks or pet-sitting. I also do days I am off work and some holidays. I am not available during the weekdays when school is in session. I treat clients' dogs like my own. I do prefer a meet and greet before caring for your pet. I will only care for pets in the client's home since I already have 3 dogs of my own. I am quiet and calm with animals to put them at ease. I can take them for a walk, or will play ball or whatever your dog enjoys playing. I can feed your pet, give treats, meds, and always provide fresh water. I am responsible and always show up, stay the full amount of time, and make sure the house is just as I left it. Dogs are always happy to see me. Your dog will get lots of love during my visits.

About: I enjoy getting to know dogs and them getting to know me, becoming trusted friends. I grew up with dogs having bred Bassett Hounds as a kid with my father and have had dogs all my life. I even turned my wife into a dog lover. We now have an eight year rescued mix breed and often care for our adult children's dogs in our home. I also go to their homes every day to walk them and let them out. Your dog will love playing with me and walking with me as I really engage with them well and treat every outing as a adventure. I can't wait to meet your dog/s and begin a trusted relationship with them as with explore, play and walk.
“Abigail was very responsive and very communicative when taking care of Jett. She asked plenty of great questions to make sure Jett was getting the best care possible. She also Toone great photos to show he was having a great time. Jett was a bit stubborn getting back inside (probably because he was having so much fun with Abigail), but when we got home he was in a fabulous mood. Will definitely ask her to watch our little guy in the future.”


About: I have had dogs all of my life. From a German Shephard, to Labs, Goldens, Huskies, Shih Tzu, I have had them all. I have experience giving my Red Fox Lab, Big Boy Butters insulin shots, since he is diabetic. My Goldens, Maggie and Ollie, love playing tennis ball and going for walks. Daisy, my Shih Tzu, thinks that she is a Doberman even though she is only 15 pounds. They all love to wrestle. I have a fenced in yard where they can run freely. They enjoy their treats and all of the rubs they can handle. I also have experience with salt water/fresh water fish and reptiles. Just love animals. They are always happy to see you and they enjoy being loved. I am working full time but have an open ended schedule and am willing to make anything work. I can either come to you or willing to have your pets stay with me. I have 3 teenagers that also love dogs that are willing to help out. Your pets will not be ignored and will get plenty of attention. I have a fenced in yard. I have two goldens, a lab, and a shih tzu currently if your pets would be coming here. I can also stay at your house to take care of your pets. Can make anything work. I have had dogs/cats/fish and reptiles for over 50 years so I have plenty of experience. Butters, my Red Fox Lab, is diabetic so I also have experience with medication and insulin shots.
“This was Connor's first visit with our girls Kiwi and Rio. He was on time, followed protocols and communicated promptly. Very happy about all 3 of those things! We have scheduled another visit soon.”

“Rachel has a great way with dogs,clearly. She has started walking my new lab / Jindo (Holly) from Korea (only 6 weeks in the US). The prior petsitter i used did not have success leashing her. Rachel on the other hand, seems to have an intuitive way with dogs, & Holly seems to be accepting her. Highly recommended:) Maureen”
