Katharine did visits for my two cats I choose her because of previous good reviews and because she had cats of her own and was previously a vet tech She did a great job of taking care of my boys and sent daily messages. One of my cats hides around new people but she made she she looked for him every visit to make sure he was doing okay. I would diffently use her services again.

This was my first time using the Rover service, snd I could not be happier! Annie too excellent care of my two cats and everything was in order when I returned home. My female is shy, but came out to greet Annie. I would highly recommend Rover and Annie if you are looking for a reliable person to provide TLC to your fur baby/babies!

About: Hi, I’m Art I’ve spent the past 10+ years immersed in the world of dogs—personally, professionally, and through volunteer work. From working at PetSmart to volunteering in dog rehabilitation programs, I’ve built deep experience with pups of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. I’ve been a proud dog owner for over a decade and a trusted sitter for friends, family, and clients who rely on me for consistent, loving care. Whether your dog needs high-energy playtime, gentle companionship, medication, or just a calm, dependable presence—I’ve got it covered. Dogs aren't just animals to me—they’re family. I treat every dog in my care like one of my own, making sure they’re safe, happy, and loved whether it’s for a walk, drop-in, or overnight stay. You’ll get plenty of updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your dog is in experienced hands. Let’s set up a Meet & Greet—I’d love to meet you and your pup! I work overnights and I am available during the day noon to 9 pm. I am available weekends with some advance notice. Available in house or come to you with notice. I have a fenced in yard that we do not use chemicals on and monitor for pests or plants that are not animal friendly. Home comes stocked with a friendly playful dog, toys, and cat that will probably hide.

When I needed someone to look after my two aggressive Rottweilers while I was out of town, Frank came to the rescue. Despite not having a chance to meet beforehand, Frank agreed to drop in, demonstrating his professionalism and flexibility. From the moment Frank stepped into my home, his professionalism and confidence put me at ease. He provided regular updates, ensuring my Rottweilers were safe and happy. Despite the challenges of handling aggressive breeds, Frank handled them with care and expertise. I'm incredibly grateful for Frank’s dedication, flexibility, and peace of mind he provided. His willingness to go above and beyond, even without a formal introduction, speaks volumes about his commitment to his clients and their pets. I wholeheartedly recommend Frank for anyone in need of reliable and compassionate care for their furry companions.

About: Hi! My name is Jasmine, and I provide reliable, caring pet sitting and dog walking services. With an extensive background in animal behavior and care, I bring both professional and personal experience to every pet I look after. I’ve grown up with a dog for 8 years, currently share my home with my cat Sage, and even worked as an assistant zookeeper while studying veterinary science in college. These experiences have deepened my understanding of different animals’ needs and personalities, and I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or extra love while you’re away, I treat every furry friend like family. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pet and help make your life a little easier! Sunday-Thursday 7:00am-2:00pm Friday-Saturday open availability I’m available for dog walks and pet visits Sunday through Thursday between 7:00 AM and 2:00 PM. On Fridays and Saturdays, I offer open availability for both walks and pet sitting, making it easy to schedule care that fits your needs. I provide attentive, compassionate care for pets right in their own home, so they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. During my visits, I make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared-for, giving them the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I adapt to each pet’s unique personality and routine as needed by them and their owner.

Michelle is wonderful! Initially I hired her to stay in my house a few days with my 16.5 yr old dog, but unfortunately he passed away before the trip. Michelle helped change our agreement, and she looked in on our cat and house instead. Great communication and I knew my cat and house was in great hands!

About: I’ve taken care of many types of dogs through various experiences. I am responsible and dependable. I have owned dogs my entire life and currently have a 3 year old energetic boxer mix. I trained my own pup from 7 weeks old and attended a 12 week training course with her. Positive tones and patience are key. I love being active and getting outside and can guarantee your dog a happy and active experience! I am a full time teacher! I have summers and other school breaks off. I will be available for dog walking in the afternoons starting May 29th. During the month of June I work summer school but am available for dog walking any time after 1:00 pm. I am looking to help during vacation times and long weekends. For house sitting, I am willing to stay from 7am to 11pm but will not be available for overnights for initial clients. I am available for meet and greets beforehand! I am reliable, dependable, and trustworthy. I will treat your home and animals as I would my own. I have reliable transportation and can be there for your pet several times a day. I love being outdoors and active and would love to walk or run your dog as you see fit. I will send updates including photos and videos to let you know how your pet is doing.

About: I have owned 3 huskies before because of me being a husky owner. I have dealt with stubbornness and big personalities. I loved their personality! I prefer to do it on weekends because my work schedule is very unpredictable but I have no problem going after work if you need me to! I always pay attention to a dog’s body language. It gives me an idea what they are feeling, how their health is, and overall if their needs are met like food, water, or had enough miles to walk.

Marissa was very professional I like the fact that she was qualified to care for dogs because of her work at a pet clinic and college background. She made sure to take notes for the care of my senior dog Ginger. she took pictures and made sure Ginger was comfortable before leaving. I would highly recommend Marissa for anyone looking for a dog sitter.

About: We have grown up around cats and dogs. We are the go to pet sitters for our families and friends. We have experience with cats, dogs, snakes, turtles, fish, and ferrets. We have house trained our dogs and know the patience required with the process. We both work from home so we are able to take dogs out as needed and nothing is better on a work break then cuddling some fuzzies. We have a large fenced in yard,so dogs can safely run and play. We always stay outside with them. Inside the house is pet proofed with couch protection covers and scratching posts for cats. All kitty litter is gated off from dog access. Water bowls are available upstairs and downstairs. If we are outside for more than 15 minutes we also bring a water bowl outside.
