“Kerri is amazing on walks with our energetic and reactive dog Buster! She's very kind and calm with him, and he responds so well with her. We also appreciate how prompt and communicative Kerri has been.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and personalities for over three years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I have experience following feeding schedules, giving basic care, and providing extra attention to puppies and senior dogs. I always treat pets as if they were my own. I’m currently a nursing student, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available during weekdays and weekends and can adjust my routine to fit your pet’s needs. I enjoy spending quality time with pets, making sure they get attention, playtime, and consistent care throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, routines, and any special needs. I keep a clean, calm environment and make sure pets are always supervised and secure. As a nursing student, I’m attentive, responsible, and comfortable monitoring behavior changes and overall well-being. I treat every pet with patience, respect, and love.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes since I was 10 years old, and as a dog mom myself, I know that your pet isn't 'just' a pet, they’re family. I specialize in attentive walks and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats. My goal is to make sure every parent feels completely happy and comfortable while they’re away or at work. Because my own dog is my baby, I treat every 'furbaby' in my care like royalty. I am also available for overnight stays in my home! I live in a cozy one-bedroom with my own private, fenced-in backyard, which is perfect for safe outdoor playtime. To ensure a calm and personalized environment for my own dog and yours, I specialize in hosting small-to-medium sized breeds. Whether it's a walk, a visit, or a sleepover, I prioritize keeping you in the loop with frequent updates and photos so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I treat every pet with the same love and devotion I give my own! I am fully available for dedicated care on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. I also have flexible availability on Saturdays for walks, visits, or boarding. Because I work a set schedule on other days, your pet gets my undivided attention during my mid-week "on-duty" days. I am committed to maintaining your pet's routine and making sure they feel loved and active while you are busy. I provide a calm, boutique environment in my cozy in-law unit, which is located in a pet-friendly building and features my own private, fenced-in backyard for safe potty breaks and outdoor play. Your pet’s safety is my absolute priority; for overnight guests, I use a secure playpen setup when I am briefly away to ensure everyone has their own comfortable, supervised space. My resident dog is a small French Bulldog who is very timid and antisocial, he prefers to keep his distance and is never aggressive, making him a perfect, low-pressure "roommate" for pets who also enjoy their personal space. Whether we are hanging out in the yard or going for a neighborhood walk, I treat your furbaby with the same high standards of safety and love that I give my own "baby" every single day. I love making sure parents feel completely at ease, so I prioritize keeping you in the loop with frequent updates and photos so you never have to wonder how they’re doing!
About: In 2012 my mother started a dog boarding business out of her own home. I was this businesses number #1 (and in a lot of ways only) Employee. We watched an average of 4 dogs a day not including the dogs me and my mother had that were our own and the fosters we were taking care of as well. We closed down the business in 2021 when we moved and now that I have my own place I'm looking to work with pets again (dogs and cats!). I can not board but I can still do walks and sitting. I'd love to meet and get to know your pets. I work weekends so I am not going to be available most Saturdays and Sundays before 6pm. On the flip side I am completely open on any weekday for walking or sitting. I can make any of those days work with your schedule. I won't be able to take care of your pet in my home but I can do whatever is needed of me if I were to take care of your pet in your home. Wether that's crating, specific feeding schedules or making food from provided ingredients, routines for outside and potty time. I want to make your pets experience as close as it I can do your ideal.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have always been passionate about animal care. During my undergraduate studies I was on the pre-veterinary track and volunteered with local animal shelters and veterinary clinics to gain hands-on experience working with dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with energetic puppies, shy dogs, and dogs that need a little extra patience. I’m attentive, reliable, and happy to provide updates and photos so you know your dog is safe and happy. I currently offer dog walking and drop-in visits and specialize in dog care. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so pet visits fit naturally into my routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable walks and drop-ins during the week, especially during the daytime hours when many dogs need a break and some attention. Safety and trust are very important to me when caring for someone else’s pet. Having grown up with dogs and volunteered in animal shelters and veterinary clinics while on the pre-vet track, I’m comfortable working with dogs of different sizes, breeds, and temperaments. During visits I pay close attention to a dog’s behavior, environment, and any specific instructions from the owner. I make sure dogs are securely leashed on walks, gates and doors are properly closed, and pets are supervised throughout the visit. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, administer basic medications if needed, and provide updates and photos so owners know their dog is safe and doing well.
About: I've grown up with cats/dogs and rats my entire life. I've always been involved with taking care of my family's dogs and cat. I know how to comfort anxious animals, bathe dogs and walk dogs/cats. I also have Red Cross Certification for Cat and Dog First Aid. I do art vending sometimes but not often and college online. I have a very flexible schedule and can move commitments around for the most part. I make sure the water bowls have fresh water and are clean. I make sure to follow all the client's instructions, i.e, feeding your fur baby on time, keeping harmful things away from your fur baby, and giving your fur baby medication on time if they need medications. I also have Red Cross Certification for Cat and Dog First Aid.
About: Gentle (or jumpy!) giants are my specialty. I’ve spent the last 15 years sharing my life with Bullmastiffs, Dogues de Bordeaux and Cane Corsos from puppyhood to passing. Medium dogs are great but the big boys and girls are my heart. All ages welcome. My home is 100% set up for dog life. I’m retired from my full-time career but still work very part-time as a CrossFit coach, and also workout daily. Mornings I’m at the gym but home between classes and all afternoon. I have time for potty in the morning and awesome walks in the afternoon. Of course, cuddle and play time included! I have a fully fenced back yard, a dog run for their business, and a big dog bed in my living room. I have plenty of sanitized toys. Basically my home is set up to share with dogs. Unfortunately, my last baby crossed the rainbow bridge last September so I’m taking this opportunity to care for yours.

“Cathy has been walking our anxious little rescue dog for over a year plus house/pet sitting as we’ve needed her. We are always so happy to know we have such a caring person with our pets! She provides such peace of mind. Couldn’t recommend more highly.”

About: i’ve taken care of pets for around 8 years maybe more. i’ve taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, fishes, chinchillas and would love to take care of more! I know how to give pets medication from pills to liquid and more. I’ve also taken care of pets from babies to adults! I’m available during the weekends and weekdays from 6pm and after since i’m an after school teacher! i could also do mornings depending on what time since im also enrolled in college! I love pets, giving them lots of attention, walks, meals and even training! Love giving updates to the clients and showing them what their furry friends are doing!
About: With 10+ years of animal care experience — including 4 years as a veterinary assistant — I’m especially experienced with seniors, anxious or shy pets, and those needing medications or extra TLC. I’m reliable, calm under pressure, and treat every pet like my own. Providing care for pets fits naturally into my lifestyle — my schedule is intentionally flexible so I can be available when your pets need me most. Whether you need help during long workdays, weekend trips, or last-minute schedule changes, I’m happy to accommodate a wide range of needs. Let me know what your pet’s routine looks like — I’ll do my best to match it, so they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Within the client's home, I do everything I can to make their pets feel safe, seen, and loved. I know how important it is to maintain their routine and environment, especially for pets who thrive on familiarity. I take time to build trust, go at their pace, and make sure they feel comfortable with me in their space. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, extended visit, or overnight stay, I’m respectful of both your home and your pet’s boundaries. I always follow instructions carefully, provide updates along the way, and make sure your pet is happy, secure, and well cared for while you’re away. For the health and safety of your pet, I kindly ask that clients provide their own grooming tools — including brushes, combs, nail clippers, styptic powder, and any other essentials your pet is familiar with. Using your pet’s personal tools helps prevent the spread of bacteria, and ensures a safe, and hygienic experience. Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are always my top priorities.
About: I have been around pets my whole life. I have a dog and cat who are my world. I also want to inform that my boyfriend does this with me when he is able to. It's either me, him, or most likely both of us! We are very excited to grow this business as a team. My main focus is growing the business, so typically this is my only job, and my partner has a seasonal job. That means I/WE have plenty of time with your fur babies! We offer cat boarding services where they are kept purrfectly clean and happy with a side of playtime, definitely feeding and watering. They will get the attention they need from us and each other! We treat your furry companions like we treat our own🐕🐈
About: I have loved animals my whole life! My walls were always adorned with National Geographic photos of my favorite creatures and I longed to one day have my own little wolf pack! I grew up mainly with cats and have a huge adoration for the felines of the world. I once had a three legged cat named Ziggy ( Stardust) whom was my most treasured companion. I always had friends with a lot of dogs who depended on me to love and support them as my own. Currently, I have a 8 year old Black Labrador Retriever named Olive who has been my closest furry friend for years! I truly consider her a part of me. I also have been raising my Yellow Lab pup, Juniper, since she was 8 weeks old. She is now currently 4 years and 2 months old. Raising a puppy has by far been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life and I have had so much fun training her! I consider myself a confident two legged friend who knows how to set healthy boundaries so that a pup can become the best they can be! I am a practicing herbalist and my heart is always geared towards healing. I care deeply for the sweet animals in my life! I am currently working part time and am an online student. Generally, I am available some mornings for dog walking and some nights as well. Sitting is a possibility but may be limited to my schedule. Feel free to ask! I like to play a little fetch or tug with them out in the yard or whatever keeps your pup stimulated:) But happy to take a nice long walk when appropriate for your pooch. I am very attentive to all animals and do my best to make them feel comfortable and loved.
About: Missing my pack! Ready to love yours. Hi Yay Area! I'm a pet lover currently in a (temporary) pet-free zone. Growing up, my home was run by 4 dogs, 2 cats, a cool snake, and a fish tank that was its own little world. I know the joy—and the juggle—of caring for a full house! I'm here to provide reliable, loving care so you can breathe easy. Let's schedule a meet-and-greet to see if your dog and I are instant besties. No pressure, just pets and good vibes. DOG LOVERS OF THE WORLD UNITE! 🐾 I work from home mostly and have the freedom and desire to run errands throughout the day. To me taking care of dogs is the responsibility of everyone in the village. For me and my dog I believe he is at his happiest when he is tired physically and mentally. That means using different puzzles and going on runs.
About: Friends have asked me to care for their fur babies at numerous times in my life. I'll make sure your pet is cared for like my own. I'm open to giving medication, if necessary. From pups/kittens to senior care, I can manage them all. I want to help pet owners during my free time. Since I currently don't own pets at this time, I've decided to help those who are. I work full-time, but sometimes I have more time weekdays as well. Generally, I'm pretty open on weekends and after 3:30pm during the week. Since I don't currently have my own pets, I'm gonna provide great care to yours! I enjoy taking dogs for walks. I live near an amazing park. Making your pet feel comfortable and happy is important. Once trust is built, all will be well.
About: Dogs have been in my life since I was a kid, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of looking after dogs with all kinds of personalities and needs: • Gator, my grandma’s goofy orange lab, who loved carrying giant rocks and playing in the water. • A shar-pei with big “Stanley-from-The-Office” energy, who needed daily walks and, later in life, extra care with meals and medication. • My parents’ pitbull, who I raised from the puppy stage and helped train—my most challenging and rewarding experience! These experiences taught me patience, responsibility, and how to adapt to each dog’s unique needs. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with dogs (and I think they can tell!). I am currently doing freelance work and studying from home which means If there is WiFi, I am more than happy to stay at a place to be attentive with the pet and also keep them company. When I care for a pet I make sure they feel safe with me in their home, I let them warm up to me and I make sure they know that I am a friend by giving them their favorite treat. I prefer to meet pet before hand. If it’s a dog I avoid other dogs on walks and even if encouraged or recommended, I do not take them to the dog park. When in my care I want them to be safe and I know that can get tricky with other pups so I avoid it all around.
Jefferson dog parents share their Rover experiences
Christine is just the best! Great communication, always reliable and goes above and beyond. Our little fur baby just loves when Christine visits and it’s obvious how much care and love she brings to taking care of Chloe when we’re away. We can’t recommend Christine strongly enough.

Sandy has been absolutely amazing! My dog LOVES her and her adorable dog, they have become such good friends. She sends me lots of photos after every walk, and is very communicative and reliable. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dog walker! I truly couldn't ask for a better dog walker.

Ananda was wonderful with our pups. We have a very shy skittish girl who warmed up to Ananda immediately. Our wild boy also adored her and couldn't wait to see her arrive for walks. Quiet and calm,Ananda was timely, communicated about the pups walks and great with our dogs. I highly recommend her.

I am very happy to have found Chloe on Rover. She's a super nice person, and my dog, Raffi, is in love with her. She's helped me out for 2 weeks, and she's been on time every day, gives good long walks, and always gives me a heads up when she's on her way. She's also flexible when I had to make some last minute changes in schedule. I highly recommend her for your dog walking needs. MY dog will miss her!
Laura is awesome! She pays close attention to our reactive pup's cues and works to stay within her comfort zone to have a successful walk. Laura also has super communication, sending detailed updates and walk reports. We're so grateful for her reliable care!

Yonte took incredibly good care of my dog over an extended period of time and I am very grateful for her support. My dog has some behavioral reactivity and Yonte was willing to put in the time to get to know how best to care for her. She then took care of my dog for several months, going above and beyond to meet her needs for exercise and love. I would trust Yonte with all pet sitting, from short walks to extended stays. She definitely has an intuitive sense with pets and is very loving with them. She is also incredibly kind and easy to work with. I cannot recommend Yonte highly enough for the extraordinary care and love she puts into pet sitting! Thank you, Yonte!
