About: I am in incoming second year at Colorado State University majoring in animal science and looking to become a Veterinarian. I have sat for family and friends pets since a very young age and have enjoyed all of my experiences. I worked at University of Wisconsin’s vet clinic for two years in High School taking care of and cleaning up after various kinds of animals. I am looking to gain more experience while I am home over the summer and caring for animals is something I love to do! I am available almost everyday over the summer with exceptions of some vacations. I am very flexible on the days I am in town as I don’t have another job or any other prior commitments. I can do anything needed including walking, feeding, cleaning up after, spending time with, or playing with animals. I would not be able to take any pets at my house since I have two dogs of my own but I would be more than willing to stay over at owner’s homes! really anything needed involving animal care I can provide.


“Allegra is the best with my dogs. She is responsible, great at quick communication, and truly treats my pups well when we need her to walk the. Or stay the night. We cant say enough nice things about Allegra.”


About: I have years of experience taking care of family and friend's dogs. I am an animal lover and can't wait to make new furry friends! I am very flexible and available any time of the week, mornings to late nights, Monday through Friday. I have limited availability on the weekends. Your pet's safety and comfort is my top priority. I will cater to all of your pet's individual needs, as well as give them all the love and attention they want.


“Jennifer is great! We'd love for her to walk our dog again (in fact we already rebooked). We needed help once a week with our 8mo puppy. Jennifer always picks him up on schedule and returns him happy and well exercised! Our dog loves everyone but my husband is convinced the pup loves Jennifer extra.”



“Michelle was fantastic! My dog Samson took to her right away and she did a great job keeping me updated on how he was doing while I was away on vacation, which gave me huge peace of mind. Will definitely use her for dog walks in the future!”


“Donna took such good care of my 4-month old puppy and even sent photos to show me he was happy and having fun! This was my first time using Rover and I’m so grateful to Donna for making this a great experience. I highly recommend her.”


About: I’ve been caring for pets for years, starting with walking dogs for my neighbors — from tiny terriers to big, energetic labs. That hands-on experience taught me how to handle different sizes, breeds, and personalities with confidence and care. What sets me apart is my calm, reliable nature and genuine love for animals. I’m comfortable with leash training, reading dog body language, and keeping even the most energetic pups engaged and happy. I’m also attentive to each pet’s needs — whether that means a brisk walk, a slow stroll for a senior, or extra cuddle time. Your pet’s safety, routine, and happiness always come first with me. I have a very flexible schedule and am available anytime — weekdays, weekends, and even holidays. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals and can easily adjust my day around their needs. Whether it's an early morning walk, midday visit, or evening check-in, I’m ready whenever your pet needs me. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat it as my own. I follow all routines closely from feeding times to walks and medication and always prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety. I keep a calm, clean environment and make sure pets feel secure, whether they’re outgoing or shy. I pay close attention to details like locked doors, clean water bowls, and tidy spaces. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident and connected while you're away.


“Victor always does a great job with my little Buddy. Sometimes I am nervous about how my dog might react around a new person, but Victor has been amazing and Buddy loves when he visits. Definitely recommend!”


About: I am a dog lover who work from home, so your pup will always have care and attention. My own sweet dog Nila loves having canine friends over to play or relax with! I pride myself on being highly communicative—expect lots of photo and video updates throughout the day :) Your pup will never be left alone for long stretches and can enjoy frequent potty breaks, walks, and play sessions throughout the day. We usually start the morning with a potty break and outdoor time. Midday includes more walks, visit to dog park, or play with Nila. We wrap up the evening with another outdoor break and wind-down time. Whether your dog is playful or prefers a quiet spot to relax, we’ll adjust the routine to meet their needs. We live in a quiet, dog-friendly residential area surrounded by parks, grassy trails, and trees. We live on the first floor, with quick and easy access to the outdoors, including a dog run.

“Alisyn did a great job with Willis! Her feedback was helpful and it was nice to know he was being well taken care of. Alisyn worked with us on everything we needed. Highly recommend! We will be continuing to use her services.”


“Magan was the most helpful and amazing dog walker. My dog Vienna loved her, and she was always so happy whenever she got to go out with Magan. Magan was really sweet to Vienna and treated her great! Would recommend 100%”


About: I regularly walk and check in on a dog four times a week and have pet sat for several families. I’ve also helped care for my grandma’s dog over the years. I’m reliable, patient, and always make sure pets feel safe and cared for. I am currently on summer break, so I have a pretty high availability to care for pets — through boarding, quick walks, drop in visits, etc! I provide a calm, safe environment and always follow care instructions closely. Though I don’t have a fenced yard, I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats — supervising pets carefully to ensure their safety and comfort at all times.

“Mik and Augie were the sweetest and very loving with our dogs. I am forever grateful that they were able to stop by to let our dogs out and love on them a bit when we had a long day of work!”


“We have a reactive dog that needs time, space and discipline. Sidney is very friendly, understanding and willing to work with us to make our pup comfortable. We are happy to book her again!”


About: Have had dogs all my life. Dog sitting experience. Veterinary work experience. I’m reliable & trustworthy. Love dogs of all kinds. They are just the best. I work nights, so I’m available for most times during the day. I don’t work every night though, so if you need a late check in or something just let me know what you’re thinking. My pup passed away 2.5 years ago so I’m just looking to spend some quality time with some dogs while I’m in school and have a good excuse to get outside 😊 🩷 Will pick up/drop off, bathe if needed, or run with your dog if they are needing a little more exercise. I have my boarding/daycare turned off at the moment because I live in a 550 sqr ft apartment and for most dogs, I feel that that would not be fair. But if you have either a small dog or a unique situation where this would be okay, just let me know what you’re thinking, because my apartment is dog friendly and has a dog bathing station in the garage. I may consider it on a case by case basis.

“Meeka was amazing! She was very thorough and made sure that Sadie had a good time on her walks! She sent lots of pictures and gave me a detailed summary of her cares. Would definitely recommend ☺️”


About: I’ve always loved dogs and have been best friends with many of my friends’ and family’s pups over the years. I haven’t been able to have one of my own because I already have four sweet, healthy cats at home, but my heart has plenty of room for dogs, too. I follow dog videos every day on Instagram and TikTok and “virtually” care for so many pups through Reels—it’s my favorite part of the day. I’m excited to use Rover to finally spend time with dogs in real life, give them love, care, and fun walks, and make them feel safe and happy. I truly treat every pet like family, and I’d be honored to be your dog’s sitter or walker! I’m currently home full time, so I have a very flexible schedule for pet sitting and drop in visits. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening care every day, including weekends and holidays. I’ll always make time to give your pet lots of love, attention, and play! I live in a calm, pet friendly home with four sweet and well behaved cats. I make sure every pet feels safe, relaxed, and loved. I follow your care instructions closely and always provide a clean, quiet space. I’m attentive, gentle, and treat every pet as if they were my own.

About: Was the owner of a very well loved Labrador so plenty of experience with dogs outside of the app. Have had the opportunity to board a dog and provide walking services already and am looking for more opportunities. I work part-time outside the home and my spouse works at home full time so they will get plenty of attention during the day. Additionally my 3 kids love animals. I am flexible with what works best for your dog including more frequent walks, using a crate, special diet, or letting them use my home like any other guest.

About: Growing up on a dairy farm, I have experienced animals of all shapes and sizes. I'm an avid animal lover, and thrilled to meet your furry family member! I'm currently working part-time and as I prepare to continue my education in grad school, so I have plenty of time on my hands to meet your furry friends! I also enjoy long walks and would love to bring your dog along! While I am not currently offering services in my own home, I am happy to watch pets in your home with the proper care and respect for your home and pets.

Junction Ridge dog parents share their Rover experiences
We met Julie for a meet-n-greet to see if she'd be a good fit for in home care with our 15 yr old Westie. While it may not work out due to scheduling and logistical issues, we We very pleased with Julie's professionalism in keeping in touch, our meeting, and being clear about what she could or could not help us with. We appreciate that with service care. It's nice to know what you can expect, and it's a benefit for the service provider as well. If we need care for our little buddy from Julie, I know I could trust her wholeheartedly.

I highly recommend Iva for her services. From our first meeting at the in-person Meet & Greet, it was clear that she genuinely cared for my dog, Millie, as if she were her own. Iva quickly adapted to Millie's senior dog needs and promptly informed me of any concerns she noticed, keeping me well-informed. Having just moved to the area to start a new full-time job, this was my first experience leaving Millie home alone. Knowing that Iva was coming to walk her twice a day gave me tremendous peace of mind. I appreciated receiving brief reports and photos of their time together during my busy workdays. Iva even took the time to show extra love to my cat, Missy.
