“There are not even words for how wonderful of a pet sitter Sarah is! This was my first time using rover and I was very hesitant but Sarah has gained life long customers. Our cat is hesitant of newcomers and took right to her. She is so attentive and sends the best in detail daily updates with adorable pictures. I can’t recommend her enough and we are so thankful to have found her on rover!”


“She did amazing with our high energy German Shepard, she took time during my dog’s potty break to play with her and tire her out before leaving! We will definitely be contacting Kaitlyn again for our dog!”


“This was our first time leaving our elderly dog Marley, with Katie. She immediately was reassuring and eased our minds with his care. Katie is very conscientious, attentive, caring and loving! Communication was outstanding and kept us updated with pictures, texts or phone calls of his activity or any concerns she had with his care. We have no reservations to have Katie care for Marley in the future! Thank you Katie! 🐶💗”


“Mariah went above and beyond during the mid day drop in visits with our 12 weeks old puppy, always showing up with genuine care and thorough updates. We will certainly be using Mariah again in the future!”


“Sara and Miles were able to get my dog and puppy playing outside in The rain even though my dogs hate The rain! Very responsive and engaging with my dogs. They took pictures to send me so that I knew the dogs were happy. Will definately book them again 😁”


“The fact the our cat Chloe came out of hiding when Samantha, a new person to Chloe, came by to take care of her and feed her says a lot! Samantha kept us up to date as well with pictures during her half hour visits. It helped also that Samantha was able to come by twice to meet Chloe before the weekend when we would be gone. We were very happy with Samantha and look forward to hiring her again in the near future.”


About: I had the pleasure of caring for and loving my two shelter (or, found outside in the cold) dogs for about 14 years. From puppyhood to senior years. I understand all stages and will meet their needs as required. I am a mom of four very active boys. I work mornings, Monday through Thursday, so I am free in the early afternoon. I am able to make my own schedule around sports, school, doctor's appointments, etc. My evenings are more busy than my afternoons. I will gladly make time during my day for some four-legged, furry friends. I will gladly come to your home to feed, let out, and/or walk your dog when you cannot. We can schedule an initial meeting to familiarize the dog and myself, and go from there.

“Amanda is a kind and caring person. My kitties were well cared for. Therefore, I was able to relax while away and not worry about my precious kitties. I am eternally grateful for ROVER and Amanda and the services that they provided. Thank you! ❣️🐾❣️🐾❣️”


About: I have lived with dogs my whole life and can't imagine my life without them. I will treat your animals with as much love and compassion as my own pets. I am available any weekday after 4:00 and anytime on the weekend. My availability is greater during the summer since I work at a school. I will follow your instructions with the greatest care and I will do everything I can to make your pet feel safe and happy. Can't wait to meet your furry friends!

About: Hi, I’m Clara! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve worked with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from tiny parrots to towering horses—and I’m confident handling everything in between. I have experience with: • Puppies and young dogs (training, socialization, and lots of patience!) • Caring for a dog with frequent seizures and special health needs • Working at a large dog rescue in Mexico, rehabilitating street dogs with behavioral and medical issues of all sizes • Administering oral medications and following detailed care instructions • Senior pet care with extra attention and gentleness (my dog is epileptic so I know how to administer all seizure meds and the full protocol) • Basic training and reinforcing good behavior • Horse care from years of working in barns (feeding, grooming, handling) • Volunteering for a year at a parrot rescue, learning about specialized bird care I’m active and outdoorsy, so I love taking energetic dogs for runs, hikes, or long walks—but I’m just as happy giving older or calmer pets plenty of snuggles. Safety, compassion, and keeping your pets happy are my top priorities, and I’ll always send plenty of photo updates while you’re away. I’m currently completely open and very flexible with scheduling. I’m not working another job right now, so I can adjust to your pet’s exact needs—whether that’s early mornings, late nights, or last-minute bookings. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. In my home, pets must be friendly with other dogs, as I have my own, and everyone’s well-being is a top priority. We have a fully fenced yard for safe play and fresh air, and I love going on regular walks to keep pets happy and healthy. I’m very routine-oriented, so I’ll follow your pet’s feeding, exercise, and care schedule exactly as you request—whether in my home or yours. I make sure each animal feels secure, loved, and stress-free, with plenty of supervision, enrichment, and affection.


“Marissa did a wonderful job dog sitting for us this past week! Dogs loved her, got to play fetch everyday, and we got photos and updates daily. We’ll definitely be using her again!”


About: I have had pets of all kind, from cats, to dogs, to birds. I can run with high energy dogs or I can take my time with senior animals. I make sure safety is my top priority when caring for animals. I work full time, so I only accept requests when I know I’ll have plenty of spare time to make sure they’re loved and cared for!! I provide well rounded care to all animals, making sure I respect their desired level of attention. I ensure to follow any measures to ensure their safety, including crate care, gates being locked, etc. I love all animals and I prioritize their safety and happiness.

“My animals were in such good hands with Amanda! Not only were all of their needs covered, the pictures that were shared showed how much fun they had while I was away as well! My search for a dog sitter is over, Amanda is the perfect choice.”


“We are new to the area and needed someone to drop in on our dogs while we’re at work every day. Nicole has been dropping in every day and has been amazing! She gives us detailed report cards every day with pictures of our pooches! Highly recommend!”


About: As a lifelong pet parent, I bring a deep love and understanding of animals to every walk. I’ve spent my entire life caring for pets, so I know the importance of building trust, maintaining routine, and providing genuine companionship for your furry friend. What sets me apart is not just my experience but my commitment to ensuring your dog feels safe, happy, and loved during every walk. I treat each dog like my own, paying attention to their unique needs and personality to make sure they get the exercise and attention they deserve. With me, your dog isn’t just another walk — it’s a fun, enriching experience they’ll look forward to every time! I am currently a teacher in my local school district available for walks or drop ins after 3pm Monday-Friday! I have plenty of available time to be around to walk and play with your pups! I do not currently offer in house boarding and am only focusing on walking pets in your neighborhood, but I am more than happy and able to walk and play with your pets. I am comfortable with crating animals or leaving them free roam in house after playtime is over, whatever is considered the "norm" for your pup!
