Christina was great with Pepper! She was so sweet and caring, and when our original request changed to include giving some meds, she was more than happy to help. She was easy to work with, reliable, and I’ll gladly rebook with her in the future.

About: I have my own bull mastiff, trained him myself. Sit, stay, pray, paw, lay down, and he doesn’t pull on the leash and taught him how to “go home”. I’ve been around dogs my entire life as I have had a few and my mom has been on rover for 10 years dog sitting. I am a College student with primarily online classes so my schedule is flexible. I am not on campus, and am currently at home in Rolling Meadows. I care for pets in my own home as if they were my own. Very responsible college athlete, just finished my 3rd year of basketball and will graduate with my bachelors in May. Mindful of other peoples property and environments.

About: “Dog fever” doesn’t even begin to cover it — my girlfriend and I are counting down the days until we can bring home a new puppy. I’m the kind of person who can’t pass a dog on the street without stopping to say hello, so you can imagine how excited I get around animals. I’m a private contractor working remotely with a very flexible schedule. I can shift my day to day schedule and adapt to most needs you may have. I am a very attentive person with patience and much affection. I hope to keep your pets routine consistent & stress-free with exercise, playtime, or just extra attention.

About: Hi there! My name is Jessica. My love for dogs started at a young age. Since 16 I have been caring for dogs starting with just about everyone’s pup in my neighborhood which quickly evolved into so much more over the years. I work partially from home in marketing so I have some flexibility in my schedule. I occasionally go into the office but have flexibility on when. I am available for feeding, playing, walking, or simply keeping your pup company. I have experience with dogs of various sizes ages and breeds. I also have a dog of my own that I rescued earlier this year so I have had my fair share of first hand experience navigating puppy ownership.

Jessica dropped in to see my cat twice a day while I was out of town and did a fantastic job. She was punctual, consistent, and seemed to really do well making my cat feel comfortable and safe. It’s a relief to know that I can count on her for our next trip!

Jessica is absolutely the best! She showered our cat with so much love and attention while we were away for a few days. She sent pictures from each visit and the last 2 days she had him on her lap. I’m so jealous! 😁 We highly recommend Jessica!!!

About: I’m a dedicated and loving pet caregiver with hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and needs—including my own big reactive German Shepherd, who is truly the star of my life. Through daily care, training, and attention, I’ve developed a deep understanding of dog behavior, structure, and what makes pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I recently moved to the area, so I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. This allows me to give pets the attention, consistency, and care they need. I can easily adapt to your pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, habits, and needs so they feel secure and cared for—whether in my home or yours, or a walk.

About: I was raised with dogs and cats growing up and believe that nothing can match the unconditional love of a pet in a home. I have almost 10 yrs experience boarding dogs and cats, the last 8 yrs with Rover. Now with a steady long term following and over 100-5 star reviews, I am committed as ever to help your pet feel at home in my home. At this time most of my work is inside the of the house. I love to go for walks around the neighborhood and could take your dog too. I believe a walked dog is a happy dog. I also get as much information about your pet so that I can try to be consistent with what they are used to at home. I accept dogs up to 23 lbs. About my yard My backyard has a chainlink fence and I am on a 1/2 acre lot. It is secure with lots of room to run and play. My patio door leads right to the backyard so that I can monitor your pet when outside. My experience administering medication I am comfortable with administering medication. I allow your pet full access to the whole house. This includes furniture if they are allowed. There is a security gate around the front door for extra protection. I like to walk your pets and play fetch too! I will treat your pet the way I would want someone to care for mine. Like one of the family. :) I am only working outside the house part-time in the afternoon a couple of days a week so I am home alot. I like to go for walks, weather permitting so I would bring your dog along if desired. I set aside play time and invite them to be in whatever room I am in. I have a sliding patio door in the kitchen on the main floor where I mostly hang out. I let pups out often in case they don't know how to tell me at first. I also set aside time for walks and playtime. I try to keep the same feeding schedule that your pet has at home when possible and that goes for treats as well. I always make sure there is plenty of water and comfortable places for them to lay around and even look out the window for their paw patrol duty. Oh and we all love cat naps!

About: All my life I’ve been surrounded by animals! Animals make the world a better place; they bring joy, ambition, a best friend, and most importantly a home. I have experience with all breeds and basic/common health problems (I.e., arthritis, all allergies). Jax, my dog, is an energetic 4 year old who always want a play and cuddle buddy. Of course, his introduction will consist of showing off all the toys and lay of the land! My dog has many allergies and requires pill administration, therefore I have experience and comfortable you with medication administration via oral and injection. House is located in south mission hills with beautiful canyon walks right around the corner and Balboa dog park a 15 minute walk. Plus, we have a fenced back yard! Our love has no bounds; welcoming any size, breed, and age! I hope to meet you and your pup!

Doug was great with our cat! He spent a lot of time with him, taking care of all his needs and giving him a lot of attention! We can leave our cat in his care, knowing he will be well taken care of and we won't have to worry about him at all. We highly recommend Doug to take care of your pet, as they will be left in very good hands!

About: I can use any training tools you use on walks to continue their training. I can take your pup for a run if they have extra energy they need to burn too! I have a part time job allowing me time to walk your furry friend most afternoons/evenings with the occasional morning or weekend walk if needed! I have a dog if your pup wants a friend on their walk or if they need a solo walk that works too! I stay within your neighborhood so we are never far from home keeping the doggies calmer.

About: I have cared for many dogs including my daughters working dogs when she’s out of town in the past few years. I am also quite experienced with elderly dogs that need extra special care and attention. Presently, I have a dog of my own that I always enjoy her company, but I have owned dogs in the last 16 years. I presently work full time on the weekday's , but I can be flexible with my schedule through out the week and available on the weekends. If I need to care for your pet at your home , I will follow your instructions thoroughly. I am very responsible and love pets.

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs in my own home and for people close to me. I’m especially comfortable with dogs who do best with calm routines, clear instructions, slower walks, and consistent attention. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, water, potty breaks, comfort, weather, leash safety, and each pet’s personality. I’m a good fit for pet parents who want someone reliable, detail-oriented, and communicative. I prefer meet-and-greets before first bookings so I can understand the pet’s routine, triggers, medical needs, emergency contacts, and household expectations. I currently focus on small and medium dogs, senior pets, walks, drop-ins, and selective house sitting. My availability is currently best for weekends, select weekdays, and planned bookings with advance notice. I’m offering walks, drop-ins, and selective house sitting while keeping my schedule realistic so I can provide reliable care. I prefer meet-and-greets before first bookings and do best with pet parents who provide clear routines, access instructions, and expectations. I take safety and trust seriously. For walks, I pay close attention to leash handling, weather, heat, traffic, other dogs, and each pet’s comfort level. For house sitting or drop-ins, I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, keep doors and gates secure, provide updates and photos, and make sure food, water, potty breaks, and comfort needs are handled consistently. I ask about bite history, reactivity, separation anxiety, medications, cameras, emergency contacts, and whether anyone else will enter the home during the booking. I may decline bookings that involve unsafe leash behavior, aggression, unmanaged reactivity, or care needs outside my experience.

Arthur was great with my girls. 2 of them a bit leary with men they don't know well but seems things went well. He locked up when done and they all seemed just fine when I got home. He has a gentle nature with the pups and that is comforting from a stranger. I highly recommend to others and will call Arthur again.
