About: I’ve always loved animals of all kinds, so I’m happy to help with all your pet needs. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages and sizes. I have experience administering medication to dogs, cats, and even rats! I have always loved training animals. I plan to get a training certification through Rover soon so I can also offer training services. But in the meantime, I’m happy to work with your pet’s training needs while providing other services. I am a teacher, so if school is in, so am I. So I am primarily available weekday evenings and weekends. That availability will change soon though! I have a fully fenced yard, and plenty of pet cameras. My house is set up with pets in mind. And I’ll of course respect your home!
About: I have taken care of dogs for a friend for a few years now. I also have experience with taking care of a local family’s 2 sweet dogs. I have been their go to for a few years now. I also have experience as a pet owner, I grew up with dogs my entire life, at one time we had a pack of 8. My goal is to ease your pet’s anxiety when their favorite person is not there. I will work to make sure your pet has the structure they need, the enrichment they crave, and the love they deserve. I do work full time Monday -Friday 8am-5pm so I am free on weekends and happy to stay with the animals when I’m not working. I can also check in on my lunch hour to ensure they have the restroom breaks they need and the enrichment time. I am very attentive when I am caring for you furry family members. I make sure that they have fresh water and get fed at the correct times. I always send photo updates each time the pets go outside or eat. I am very flexible with what is required if you’re able to be flexible and understanding of my work schedule.
“Tracy was so great with meeting my pup! She spent so much time and careful questioning to make sure she had all of the necessary information to take care of him. I feel very, very confident in recommending her to others.”
“Honestly could not say better things about Rhiana. This was my first time using Rover, and I’m glad I got her as my first cat-sitter! She kept me updated everyday with pictures. My boys seemed to really like her 🥺 I expected them to be skiddish and run away, but they did not! My cats can sense when people have good intentions, and they were very trusting of her. I would definitely hire her again!”
“Dakota met us and our GS before we left town. We were very pleased and comfortable leaving our pet under his care. He didn't just drop in to feed and walk him, he also played with him. We will never use boarding. We will differently use Dakota again when needed.”
“Danielle is amazing! She is extremely professional and communicative. She met up with me before the trip and took great care of my cat, Ellie. Ellie can be shy and cautious of new people but Danielle took her time and gave her lots of love, space, and patience. Can’t wait to book with her again!”
“Karlee was awesome! She left the most detailed notes and photos that I've ever seen from a sitter, and she was incredibly personable and warm. Definitely glad we found her to care for our kitties and wouldn't hesitate to book her again.”
“Genesis went above and beyond! She took a great care of our cat, she brought some packages in, she helped out with an emergency situation. We are very grateful! And our cat loved her!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ranging from new born puppies to senior dogs for the past 10 years. Friends and family trust me to dog sit and dog walk for them regularly.

I have experience with a a variety of walking methods, crating, fenced yards, and off leash dogs.
“My dog had such a great time with Bertie while I was on vacation, she probably didn’t even notice I was gone. Seeing the pictures of their day together made me happy and I will rebook in the future!”
“Penny has been great with Bodo! We’re moving out of state and will miss her care so much. She always communicates well and sends great updates and pictures. Bodo will miss you, Penny 🐾”
“Amazing care! My cats loved Caroline and she took the time to give them individualized attention and really make sure they had everything g they needed. Didn’t think I’d find someone who cared about my cats this much and I am so thankful!”
“Kristen is the BEST! She was so communicative and went the extra mile to love on our kitties. She even got the shyest one to come out and play! Kristen is such a great sitter and we can’t wait to book her again.”
“Caroline was so helpful taking care of my dog over Thanksgiving! She sent lots of photos and made me feel very reassured that my dog was happy and comfortable. Thank you Caroline!”

“Thanks for taking good care of my pups this weekend! I appreciate the attention to instructions and detail, and the photos. Your communication was prompt.”
“Josephine is excellent, very reliable and caring. She sent me detailed reports and photos every day, so I could relax knowing my dog and cat were in good hands while I was away.”
“Sabal absolutely LOVES Maggie!! Maggie is always able to tire her out even though she is high energy, and is so caring and thoughtful. She is also a great communicator, and I always feel at ease when Sabal is in her care.”

Jefferson Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Julia was an absolute lifesaver! She accepted an incredibly last-minute booking without hesitation. My dog Frankie gets a bit or of separation anxiety and sadness when we leave town, but Julia handled it with total patience, compassion and professionalism. Very clear to communicate everything going on with the pup. Without ever meeting the pup before she was extremely reliable when I left her with some instructions. She went above and beyond! I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such flexible and capable hands. Highly recommend!
Kristen stopped in through the weekend to watch our senior special needs boy while we were away and was excellent with him! She kept us updated with pictures and status updates which was very much appreciated, especially with a boy who has some quirks. Kristen was very easy to communicate with and flexible with travel plan changes. Highly recommend her for pet sitting needs and will plan to have Kristen help us out with our pup again. Thanks Kristen!
I had a great experience and would absolutely book again. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and it gave me peace of mind knowing Theo was being well cared for while I was away. I appreciated the updates, photos, and attention to detail throughout each visit. It’s clear they genuinely care about the pets they look after. Thank you for taking such great care of Theo. I look forward to booking with you again in the future!
Kris is an extremely reliable and flexible pet caretaker. Travel is often stressful, but one thing I never worry about while I’m gone is my two cats. Kris takes excellent care of them, including giving medication twice a day. She also is very detailed in her Rover cards. Also, Kris is some kind of cat whisperer — she take the most adorable photos when she does check-ins. My one cat is a goblin but when I see her photos of him, he looks so cute I almost forget what an utter demon he is.
Mackenzie is the best!! So flexible and communicative. She's been patient with getting to know our very shy cat, who is now really comfortable around her and doesn't get stressed anymore when we're away (which is a big deal!). We so appreciate Mackenzie, and how she really does take care of our cat like she's her own.
Mitch has cared for my dog multiple times and is always amazing. This time we were gone for a whole week. His communication was top notch as always, and he went above and beyond to ensure she was well cared for. I plan to continue booking with him moving forward.
