About: I’ve had pets all my life, with experience caring for dogs of many different sizes and breeds. While taking care of your pet I will make them feel at home, maintain their routine with them and give plenty of attention. Pet care is vital in my house. With 3 animals to take care of, I have daily routines set in place in order to ensure my pets are well taken care of. We have a fenced in yard and space to run around, and a quiet, no-outlet neighborhood with no drive-thru traffic for walks. There is a dog bed for sleeping and a crate if needed.

“Thank you Kelsey for taking such good care of my kitty Sonny! He's doing great, as if I never left. I truly appreciate your kindness to him, and your work and attention to detail. Blessings to you. :)”


“Jenna was a fantastic sitter for my kitty! My usual cat sitters weren’t available for the holiday weekend, so I needed to find someone asap. This was my first time using Rover, so I was a little nervous, but Jenna did everything I asked her to do every visit and sent me so many adorable pictures of my cat playing and snuggling with her. I’m very appreciative of Jenna being able to schedule my kitty into her weekend the week of. She’s very kind and sweet and obviously loves cats. I’ll definitely be contacting Jenna if I end up in the same situation again!”


“Always does a great job taking care of Ted and makes sure he gets lots of play time and snuggles. 100% recommend Emily if you need someone to check in on your pup!”


“Ellie has been very kind to my doggo and my home. She sends great pictures and my dog seems happy and tuckered out! She has even gone above and beyond and refilled his water dish a few times and given some extra time and loving. Will definitely have Ellie visit again.”

“Phoebe is such a wonderful person! She was very loving and conscientious with our two big dogs. She knew it was our first time away from our newer dog and she kept us updated regularly with messages & pics. We will definitely hire Phoebe again!”


“Jenn checked in our cats as promised and sent us reports and photos on how they were doing that we appreciated. It was a comfort to know that they were being looked after while we were gone and to know what was going on!”


About: I’ve cared for animals of all sizes and personalities — from tiny lap dogs to powerful Akitas, and from playful kittens to senior cats with medical needs. With 28 years of experience, I’m confident handling a wide range of temperaments, energy levels, and routines. My wife, Natalie, often helps with visits too, so your pets can get to know and trust us both. Whether it’s giving medication, going on long walks, scooping litter boxes, or just offering some extra love and attention, we treat every pet like they’re part of the family. Our goal is always to make them feel safe, happy, and cared for. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which makes it easy for me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it's regular walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m able to tailor my routine around their needs. Pet care fits naturally into my day; I genuinely enjoy it and always make it a priority! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort always come first. I follow any routines or instructions closely to help pets feel at ease and keep their environment familiar. I make sure they’re never left unattended for long, always have access to fresh water, and get plenty of love and attention. I also keep spaces clean, secure, and calm; whether it’s cozy nap time or active playtime, I aim to create a stress-free, loving environment.

About: I am fun, outgoing, and energetic. I have a true passion for taking care of dogs. Growing up my family has had a few dogs that I enjoyed helping with. One was a chow chow and the other was a shorky. Each dog brought joy into my life. Fast forward to my adult life where my love for dogs still exists. My husband and I now have a young mini goldendoodle that we love having in our life. With him in my life, I’ve met so many other dog parents and of course dogs. Each has been very nice and each of these other dogs have not shied away from me. You can call me the dog whisperer. Lol All in all, I can’t wait to meet your dog/puppy and make a new furry friend. I bet they will enjoy taking a walk with me. I love taking walks with my goldendoodle, so hopefully I can help you out and walk with your dog/pup. As my husband and I are goldendoodle parents, I pride myself in taking great care of him. He gets his daily meals, walks, playtime, treats, and so much morez I care for dogs in my home or client homes just like I would my own. My pup deserves everything to keep him healthy and I will follow the clients guidelines in order to feed and care for their dog/pup just like they do.

About: Hello! It's tough leaving your pets alone and finding reliable people to care for them. As a longtime pet-owner myself, I've wrestled with this same issue; especially with one of my former pups who couldn't be crated or boarded due to extreme anxiety! I am a mature working professional who loves animals and will be attentive to their needs. My experience is with dogs and cats, however, I have also taken care of ducks, chickens, parrots, and geese! I am comfortable and responsible with giving medications, and caring for pets of all ages. I believe in great communication, exceeding client needs, and providing attentive and loving care to your pets. Because, they aren't just pets....they are family! I am new to Rover.com, and looking forward to meeting you and your pets. I currently work full-time, and am available most evenings for drop-in visits. I am also available to do weekend boarding in my home (dogs only), or yours (dogs and cats). Boarding at my home (dogs only), I have a large fenced yard, and will also walk your pup as needed. My home is their home! With your input, I will make your pet as comfortable as possible! I will send you updates and photos. Care in your home (dogs and cats) will follow your rules. I will send you updates and photos. While I do not have specific experience with special-needs dogs, I am happy to support pets with these needs. I'll work with you to be well-informed and comfortable with this level of support.

“Gretchen is timely, kind and very helpful! Sends multiple messages and photos of my cat Bella. She is also very accommodating with my CH kitty (cerebella hypoplasia) and helps her with her unique litter box situation. She definitely makes me feel calm, knowing my cat is in great hands when I’m on vacation! Highly recommend.”


About: Ive grown up with pets my whole life, and when I got old enough, I would frequently care for family members pets, as well as families around the neighborhood.

I make sure to follow the owners instructions on how to care for their pet, and adjust accordingly to the needs of the pet. The safety and well being of pets is first and foremost

About: Ashley has taken care of dogs since she was a young child. Her husband, Kalup, also has experience with dogs. Between the two of us we’d be very attentive and caring to your furry friends while they stay with us Myself and Kalup are often home on the weekends and would love to spend our free time taking care of your dogs while you are away! We are typically available starting Friday evenings once we are home from work, usually around 4pm. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for your dogs to let their zoomies out! Our home offers safe environment for your pets while you are away

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and other various animals my whole life. I’ve recently taken some pet sitting gigs for friends and family decided to take my passion for animals into a side gig! I have experience with dogs, cats and small animals like guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils and parakeets. I’m open to other animals with proper care instructions. I have two guinea pigs of my own - Winston and Gary. In my free time, I enjoy reading, traveling and trying new restaurants. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I work full time, however I work remotely on Thursdays and Fridays so I have more flexibility those days - just let me know what time you need me to drop in or take your pet on a walk! I am available after 5:30pm on weekdays for walks and on weekends for in home pet sitting. I am willing to have small animals stay in my home if preferred. However, I prefer to watch cats and dogs in your home for their safety and comfort!

About: I'm a long time pet owner and an animal enthusiast. Growing up with dogs and an entrepreneurial spirit my first job was dog walking/dogsitting in my neighborhood, progressing there from cats to hamsters to horses. The most important parts of animal care are patience and compassion as well as an appreciation for individualism. I would be honored to keep your furry friends company and give them the love and attention we both know they deserve! As a student I stay on a pretty consistent schedule and therefore a consistent availability as well. I'd love to get to know your fur babe and meet a new study buddy! When entering a pets space it's important to be patient and respectful! New people and experience can be intimidating and everyone feels much more secure when their boundaries are respected.

Recently, I ran into a schedule challenge and asked if she could come feed my dog, let her outside, and play with her for a bit -- maybe 30 minutes total. She did exactly, that, and sent me some fun video of my girl zooming while enjoying her play time. My dog is happy to see her, which I know means she trusts her, and I do, too. I definitely will have her visit again, and will consider boarding my dog with her if I need to be gone for a few days. I know she will be well cared for by Linda!”

“Ashley is a caring ,loving, responsible pet owner. Her pets are her family. This shows in how she dog sat with our golden retriever and now with our two golden doodles. She treats them as members of her family. My dogs are always happy to see her as they wag their tails in excitement. Ashley will give text updates and pictures of the dogs while she is caring for them. This reassures us of how the dogs are doing while we are away. We are so happy to have her be a caregiver for our furry babies.”
