About: I have been fortunate enough to gain years of experience working with animals in both a shelter and medical setting. I am well trained in various routes of medicine administration as a result and love every dog I meet. I just want to be able to make a difference for the pets and their families within my community. I do currently work a full time schedule as a veterinary technician, and study part time, so I generally have a rather busy schedule. I am well-disciplined, however, and manage my time around all of my commitments appropriately, and your furry friends hold a high priority for me. I can prepare for overnight duties and have flexible enough time in the mornings and evenings, and could feasibly do drop-in care over the noon hour. My weekends are generally clear! I sincerely promise to be completely respectful of your living space if I am hired to provide care for your furry little loved ones, guaranteed.
About: With over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments, I provide compassionate, attentive care that feels just like home. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or a calm walk, I adapt my approach to meet each pet’s unique personality and health needs. What sets me apart is my patience, consistency, and ability to earn trust quickly, from both pets and their owners. I have a golden doodle of my own so caring for pets is what I do all day. He is very energetic but also loves his naps. I am a college student so during the summer i am with him 24/7 Whether caring for pets in my home or at a client’s home, my top priority is creating a safe, stress-free, and loving environment. I stick closely to the pet’s normal routine—feeding times, walks, play, and rest—so they feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space and follow all instructions carefully, from feeding and medication to keeping favorite toys or beds in the right spot. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and exercise, and I’m always alert to signs of stress or discomfort. In my home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly space where animals can relax and feel at ease. I keep a regular routine and make sure all pets have plenty of room to play, nap, and feel at home. Since I have a friendly Goldendoodle, pets who stay with me will also have a built-in playmate—unless they prefer solo time, in which case I provide quiet areas just for them.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 12. My friends and family have counted on me to walk, feed, water and love on their animals I am home all day Monday-Thursday unless something comes up. I don’t usually have a set schedule throughout the day. It’s just whatever I decide to do I don’t have a house to care for pets at. At my clients house I will play with the dog in the backyard. Feed and water and just make sure they are loved
About: As a dedicated pre-vet student, I bring 10 years of personal experience as a dog owner and hands-on training through my vet club. My passion for animal care goes beyond basic pet sitting—I’ve provided trusted care for friends’ and family’s pets, gaining real-world experience. I’ve also worked at a veterinary clinic as a veterinary assistant, where I helped care for dogs and cats, further building my skills in handling, health monitoring, and patient care. Winning 1st place in the state for veterinary science at HOSA showcases my deep knowledge and commitment to animal well-being. With me, your pet receives not just companionship, but expert-level attention and care. As a college student, I balance classes with a flexible schedule that allows plenty of time for pet care. I’m available for walks in the early afternoon and evenings, along with play breaks and quality time to keep pets active, happy, and loved. Even with my studies, I make sure your pet receives my full attention and care. I care for pets by following a consistent routine with walks, playtime, and attention. I’d do the same in a client’s home, making sure their pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for.
About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals since I was a kid. From neighbors to people I happen to meet. I treat their pet like their my own. I’m currently a junior in college. I’m an animal science/prevet major. I love all animals from horses to cats. I’m available Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 11am-1pm to do drop in visits as well as walks. I’ve always keep a close eye when it comes to walks, letting dogs outside, or even making sure cats stay inside even when they want to be adventurous.
About: I’ve taken care of animals as far back as I can remember. Growing up we had horses, cats, dogs, and even pet crows at times. I’m a huge animal lover and currently have two cats of my own. I’d love to have a dog also but not quite ready for that full-time commitment…I’m happy to be able to help others with their dogs as I am able! I have been asked by friends and family members to house sit, do check-ins, dog walks, etc and I truly love it. I do work full-time but work from home on Tuesdays and Thursdays so I would be more available to do boarding, check-ins, or walking in the evenings and on weekends. Currently I have two cats so i don’t have any dog crates but would have plenty of space for you to bring your own. I don’t have a fenced in yard but will do regular leash walks. My cats are pretty friendly but could be contained in the basement if need be.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was young, family and friends have allowed me to take care of them. I enjoy taking them on walks, petting them and giving the attention they deserve, and taking care of them. I will treat them just as you would and offer extended stays. For stays longer than 5 days, most I have done is a month and a half as of present, you will return to a clean home 😊 I am strong and able to keep my stability while walking dogs, am able to let them out, feed them, give baths, and offer other services for the home like my interior design skills which is another side business, that can be spoken about, if interested.
About: I have had pets in the house since I was a kid. Dogs, cats, hermit crabs, rats. I’m punctual and able to adhere to your rules/guidelines concerning your pet. I’m currently retired enjoying my time at home. Will work part time in the fall. We have 2 responsible adults and a teenager in our home that can take care of any needs or playtime your pet may need. I have a fenced yard and one high energy doggie that eats twice a day. Potty breaks are always available. I have 2 gentle, loving cats that enjoy being around other people and dogs.
About: I have always had a dog in my house since I have been a kid. A house is not a home without a dog. I will treat your dog as if he/she were part of my family. I am working part time and want to spend some time with your dog. I work every other weekend as a nurse, and have some free time during the week to check in on your dog while you are away. I can provide walks, medications as needed & play time for your dog. I can groom your dog (if they like it), too! Looking forward to meeting him/her.

Michele M.
“Michele was a perfect sitter for our Wheaton terrier. I was hoping she would be good for our dog as her rates are very reasonable. I couldn't ask for better care and concern for our dog. The experience was so much better than one of the kennels around town that I have used before. Michele definitely loves her guests and treats them as one of her own. I will definitely continue to use Michele to watch our pet when we are out of town.”

Gabrielle W.
“Gabrielle has been the best dog sitter I have ever used. My dog loves her because she goes above and beyond the bare expectations, spending extra time with him, taking him on more than just the basic walk but to the dog park (with my permission), and just genuinely caring about his wellbeing. I have recommended her to several friends who also have used her very regularly and are happy. She is trustworthy, hardworking, and reliable. She's the best.”
Blair E.
“Professional, kind and courteous. Blair always does a great job pet sitting and is just so good with my animals. They all just love her!”

Katherine F.
“I highly recommend Kate as a responsible, loving, and trustworthy dog walker and pet sitter. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing her for 4 years, and I can confidently say that animals naturally gravitate toward her calm and caring energy. Kate is incredibly attentive to the unique needs of every pet and always ensures they feel safe, exercised, and loved. Whether it’s going the extra mile on a walk, giving medication, or just spending time cuddling and playing, she treats every animal as if it were their own. If you’re looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and genuinely passionate about animals, Kate is the perfect choice. Your pets will be in excellent hands.”
Delaney H.
“I wholeheartedly recommend Delaney as a pet caregiver on Rover. Her love for dogs has been evident at a young age. She has always been drawn to them, eager to interact, and naturally compassionate. Since we welcomed our first dog into our home when she was eight and our second during Covid, she has been actively involved in their care, showing a deep sense of responsibility. As a pre-vet major seeking summer work, her dedication to animal well-being goes beyond just affection. It’s a lifelong passion. She also has experience watching and caring for our neighbor’s dog and regularly cares for friends’ pets when they’re away, always making sure their needs are met with kindness and diligence. One of the things I admire most about her is her independence and reliability. She is highly self-motivated and doesn’t need reminders or prompting. When she takes on a responsibility, she fully commits to it. I have no doubt that she would excel in managing multiple clients, keeping a consistent schedule, and delivering on her promises. In addition to her love for animals, she has proven her dependability in her past job, which she started in high school. She has always been punctual, responsible, proactive, and maintains a strong work ethic. Any pet owner who leaves their furry family member with her can feel confident knowing their pet is in good hands. She is a dedicated and hardworking sitter, who will make sure every pet she cares for gets plenty of attention, care, and companionship. I strongly recommend her as a trusted and responsible pet caregiver.”
Anjilee C.
“Anjilee has taken care of my pets over a period of the last 4 years. She is great with all types of animals and very reliable. She shows up on time and is very responsive.”
Lia H.
“Lia did great with our puppy. She takes the time to love and be patient with her and we look forward to booking her again!”
Sarah B.Star Sitter
“Dear Rover, Sarah Burnett has been such a wonderful caregiver to our 3 dogs (2 black labs & 1 Shih Tzu)over the years. Sarah is so affectionate toward them & attentive to their every need. We couldn't ask for a better sitter to care for them & they just adore her. Any dog would be lucky to have Sarah as a human companion.”

Christina D.
“Christina has taken care of my dog Keegan many times. Keegan loves going to her home and playing in the large fenced in yard and hanging out with their dog, Valarie. Christina is responsible, reliable and honest and I would highly recommend her. In addition, she is a retired Navy Sr. Chief, so it feels great to support a veteran.”
Ross G.
“Ross is GREAT with my fur baby! She always knows that she is going to be spoiled with love when he is around. Ross is great on walks (even though our good girl isn’t the most experienced on a leash), and does a good job of engaging with her/rewarding her throughout the walk. Ross clearly has experience with dog manners/basic dog training and isn’t nervous around bigger dogs! I would trust Ross with my pupper ANY day of the week — and know that she would be extremely well cared for!”
