“Matthew showed up as scheduled to walk Oakley to give him a potty break and some excercise. After their walk he fed Oakley his lunch. It is so nice to know Oakley was care for while we are work. We will use him again.”


About: Hi, i’m Brooke! I have over 5 years of experience with all kinds of animals including senior and special needs as well as medication administration, pet sitting for family and friends and volunteering at local animal shelters! I am a stay at home mama to my sweet toddler who absolutely adores animals as well! I’m home 24/7 which means I have a very open and flexible schedule to fit your needs best! I offer boarding and doggy day care in my home and up to three drop in visits a day in your home as well as dog walking! I have a big fenced backyard where your fur babies can run and play along with a neighborhood perfect for daily walks! Along with my toddler I also have three friendly cats who are comfortable with other animals but mostly keep to themselves

About: I'm a dog-lover, as are my two young boys who stay home with me. We would love to care for your dog, take him on walks, and let him play in our backyard. We'd take him on one walk per day. We would make sure that he's not bored by letting him play inside the house or even taking him to the park to play. Otherwise, he can just hang with us while we are cooking or playing at home. I grew up having a dog at home. I was usually the one to feed and walk the dog every day, and I loved it. Recently, I was nannying full time for a family with a dog. Since I'm no longer doing that, I miss having a dog around. That's why I joined Rover. I love dogs. I am a stay-at-home-mom, homeschooling my kindergarten son and caring for my younger one as well. We would love to have a dog in the mix every once in a while to play with, care for, and take on walks. I let them roam about freely inside our house, which is a 3000 square foot home. We also have a large yard that has a dog run, so we could let your dog run out there between our two trees. If I come to your home for a drop-in visit, we will let your dog out for about 15 minutes to play and go to the bathroom.

About: Thirty years of experience of opening my home and to families that cherish and love their dogs. They’re considered beautiful guests in my home and treated with respect. I’m newly retired and home full time. Have plenty of time for walks and activities for your dog. Also, privacy if he/she requires quiet time. I have a beautiful new home with a fenced in backyard. Plenty of space to run around and play. I can also offer quiet space also.

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love and understanding of animals, especially cats, combined with my commitment to providing personalized care. I take the time to learn your pet’s unique routine, preferences, and personality to ensure they feel safe and comfortable in my care. With a deep attention to detail and experience as a cat owner myself, I’m skilled at recognizing subtle cues that may indicate their needs or moods. Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve while giving you peace of mind. As a full-time student, I’ve mastered the art of balancing responsibilities, and pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I prioritize the well-being of animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether it’s feeding, playing, or providing companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to your pet’s routine, ensuring they receive attention and care when they need it. Caring for animals isn’t just a task for me—it’s a passion I make time for every day, even amidst my busy academic life. When caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home, my priority is creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for them. In my home, I ensure the space is clean, secure, and pet-friendly, with plenty of room for play, rest, and exploration. I maintain a structured routine that includes feeding, exercise, playtime, and quiet time to keep pets happy and healthy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect and follow their established routines to provide consistency for their pets. I take care to keep the space clean and secure, ensuring their pet feels at ease while maintaining the familiar surroundings they’re used to. Whether it’s walks, feeding, litter box maintenance, or administering medications, I provide attentive care tailored to their specific needs. In both settings, communication with the pet owner is key—I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins to give peace of mind and ensure trust.

About: I have had pets all my life. I love them all…especially the doggies! We have four rescue pups, a bunny and and a bearded dragon so we share the love with all different animals. I started a dog treat bakery business a couple of years ago that’s really starting to grow, so I’m now transitioning from the 9-5 job so I can pursue my passion for animals full time. I own my own dog bakery and work from home, so my availability is very flexible. We have an 11 acre farm with 2 separate “dog yards”. I will take your dog(s) for long walks and of course playtime if they like, give them food water and treats as needed, and I’m happy to accommodate with any special requests if your fur baby has a favorite activity, treat, or any special needs.

“Erin did a wonderful job with my two fur babies. She showed up on time and they were excited to see her. She sent pictures of their walks and they looked very happy. Thank you Erin for responding so promptly and doing such a wonderful job taking care of my babies.”

About: As a passionate dog lover, I've volunteered at rescue shelters, and cared for numerous K9's. This experience has not only deepened my understanding of different breeds and their unique needs, but it has also reinforced my commitment to providing the best care possible. I know how to create a safe and enjoyable environment for your furry friend, ensuring they feel loved and happy while you’re away. I’m currently enrolled in college but have ample time to care for your pups! Having recently moved to the area, I’m eager to use my skills while also earning money for school. As a Christian with a strong moral foundation and solid upbringing, you can trust that your pets will receive the best care. I look forward to helping out with dog walking and ensuring your furry friends are well taken care of! Before each walk, I make it a priority to understand my canine companion's strengths, weaknesses, energy levels, and individual preferences. The better I know my new furry friends, the more I can tailor their walks to ensure they have the best experience possible

About: I've been around and cared for animals my entire life. I have experience with reptiles, rodents, and birds, as well as farm animals like horses and goats. That being said, I also have plenty of experience with cats and dogs! I'm used to big dogs (I hang out with Great Danes) but have no problem with smaller dogs as well. I've done overnight/weekend puppy sitting for family in the past, as well as drop ins. I currently work nights in a restaurant, but I am trying to transition out of that industry. I am currently pursuing a few options, and would love to end up pet sitting full time! My house has cats and a nine year old boxer great dane mix (named Tucker) who is totally ready to let your fur baby be in charge! I have a half acre yard to play in at my house, but if we need more space we can go to Tucker's favorite place...the farm! There are goats, horses, and two great Dane friends to play with at the farm, and 25 acres to play on! If I come to visit your fur baby at your house, I will show your home the utmost respect. I will follow any instructions left, and I'm excellent with communication if you want updates.

Zoey T.
“It’s truly a pleasure to write a reference for my friend Zoey. She is one of the most dependable, kind-hearted, and driven individuals I have ever had the privilege of knowing. Whether she’s stepping up to help someone in need or throwing herself fully into a project, Zoey leads with both compassion and purpose. Her ability to balance empathy with accountability makes her someone that others naturally turn to and trust. Zoey brings a sense of calm and confidence into every space she enters. She’s a great listener, an even better problem solver, and consistently approaches challenges with a level-headed and thoughtful mindset. I've seen her stay composed under pressure, offer support without judgment, and find creative solutions to even the trickiest situations. What sets Zoey apart is her genuine nature and unwavering integrity. She doesn’t just talk about values—she lives them. She’s the kind of person who will show up early, stay late, and bring positive energy every step of the way. Anyone would be lucky to have her as a teammate, friend, or collaborator. I’m proud to know her and even prouder to recommend her wholeheartedly.”
