About: Animals love me, and I love them! My family has always had dogs, and I was always the one to walk them. Tiny dog? I'll walk them. Medium dog? I'll walk them. Big dog? I'll walk them. REALLY big dog? I'll walk them. I have walked dogs of all sizes, ages, and speeds. No matter the size, dogs respond well to my energy, and they can tell I'm excited to see them. Even if your dog doesn't like walks, I can stop by and let them out in your backyard and even throw a ball for them 1 to 100 times. I'm currently working part-time from home on a boring computer. Happy to take a break to hang out with your cute animal(s) instead! I usually go on a walk 1-2 hours a day, so why not bring your dog along? I also have a car, so I can get to your neighborhood in a breeze. I have experience walking reactive dogs. I am aware of my surroundings and always cross the street safely if I spot another dog approaching. I always communicate with dogs in a friendly and calm demeanor.
“Meagan did a wonderful job taking care of our senior kitty while we were away for a few days. She sent detailed reports and photos each day on how kitty was doing, which really put our minds at ease. She also took the time to give her daily cuddles, as well as being sensitive to her senior-cat feeding needs. We really appreciated the loving, trustworthy care Meagan showed our cat and house, and would not hesitate to ask her to watch them again next time we are out of town.”
About: Hi! My names Andrew nice to meet you. I grew up with dogs my whole life. I’ve dog-sat extensively in the past with all sorts of dogs. I’m very active, love to play fetch, go on long walks, or just kick back depending on the speed of your dog. I take pride in my professionalism, but do this mostly for the joy of having new dog friends! I live in a nice two bedroom apartment in Arbor Lodge. It’s on the second story with some stairs, something to consider with older bigger dogs. I’m a touring musician currently and when I’m available I’m free 24/7 more of less. I have a lot of down time for bathroom walks and active focus with your dog. I have a fenced in large yard full of bark that is great for rolling in or sun bathing. I also live very close to Arbor Lodge Park. A great area for nice walks or play time if you dog does well with other dogs and likes to socialize. My home has plenty of space and all wood floors.
About: I have had pets all my life, and I absolutely adore animals. I have two special needs dogs, and I believe they have saved my life. Pets are the best of us and deserve the best of us in return. I currently work independent contractor positions, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I maintain the pet care for my partner and myself everyday with multiple walks for our four dogs. Pet care is the best part of the day. Unfortunately, I cannot take more pets into my own home, but in someone else’s home, I would respect the space, maintain a clean and professional environment, and offer care and affection for the pet present.

Kenton pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sydney has taken care of our kitties before and once again did a stellar job taking care of our kitties while we were away. We had a malfunctioning litter robot that she went above and beyond to deal with, even going out to buy extra litter when needed. We are so grateful to her for her amazing care!!
Paige did a great job with my cat — he unexpectedly had to go to the vet the morning of the sitting so his eye had to be monitored and he needed meds mixed into his food, but she adapted to the situation very quickly and kept him great company while I was gone!
Joe is the absolute best! He takes amazing care of our dear cat, Stormy. He’s impeccably thorough and detailed. We adore the beautiful and professional-quality photos he takes of our precious angel. We don’t worry about anything and he allows us the opportunity to see family and friends away. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! Ben & Jeff
I had a great experience with Gyllian! They cared for my two cats over the course of three days with drop-in visits. I really appreciated their open communication and the regular updates they provided—it gave me peace of mind while I was away. They even brought in my packages, which was a thoughtful extra touch. I would absolutely hire them again and recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive pet sitter.
Lauren was amazing with our puppy, Olive! She was gentle, patient, and attentive—exactly what we needed for a young pup still settling into her routine. Lauren gave us detailed updates and clearly cared about Olive’s well-being, which gave us so much peace of mind. We’re so grateful for her help and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!
