About: I've had furry family in my life for as long as I can remember. From having my own pups to watching pets for friends and family, I love all animals and it would be my pleasure to love yours. My schedule is currently open for whatever you and your pet needs. Let me know your pet's schedule and I will be happy to accommodate. It is my pleasure to spend time with your pet/pets. Great care is taken to make sure your beloved family pet is well taken care of and happy.
About: I've had dogs and cats for years. I have friends in the animal rescue business, so I've also fostered animals in the past as well. I'd love to meet your crew and take care of him/her/all of them while you are away. Thanks for thinking of me with such an important job! I currently work from home and am available for drop-in visits during the day, evenings or weekends. I'm usually able to work around my day job, and will try to accommodate your needs. My home is a pet-friendly environment. Currently, I have a dog (who loves everyone), and 3 cats. Dogs are welcome in my house, but cats here might be an issue. However, I'd love to watch those kittens at your place. Dogs are always a treat too!
“Carol was a great dog sitter and I will definitely have her watch my dog again. She sent me updates about my dog as well as pictures. I felt very comfortable with living my dog with Carol. ”
“We had the pleasure of meeting Gina during a meet n greet and today was her first day walking our two dogs. We appreciated the photo and text update - dogs seemed really content when we came home! Thx Gina!”
About: I've owned dogs all my life and always had a role in taking care of them. I have always owned German Shepherds, so I have lots of experience with very large dogs. I have formal obedience training experience and was able to get my first dog her Canine Good Citizen certificate. I have been officially dog sitting for 10 years, and have cared for all types of dogs, including weimeraners, pitbulls, labs, doodles, shepherds, goldens, basset hounds and terriers. I have also been cat sitting since age 8 and have experience with cats of all sizes and ages. I recently graduated from UNC Law School and took the bar exam, and I am looking for some work in the interim while I wait for exam results and search for a legal job. I am living with family in the Wilmington area! I love animals of all kinds. I am most looking forward to taking jobs on rover because I'll get to meet so many pets! As well as feeding and playing with your pets at home, I would love to take them on walks, jogs or maybe car rides to the park (whatever you are comfortable with)! I have lots of experience walking bigger, stronger dogs on a leash so I'd be comfortable doing this with your pets if you'd like!
About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have experience with many different breeds ranging from smaller dogs to bigger dogs. The experience I do have with Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and neighbors over the years. My fiancé and I have a dog she's a Beagle mix, she's probably she most friendly,energetic, quiet dog you could meet. We got her when she was 8 weeks old and could fit in the palm of my hand. Now she's a stubborn big back little girl that will do any trick you ask her if you have a treat in your hand. Love her though. Overall I love dogs, I feel like you can never be mad when you have one, not matter what bad things they do, they win you back over by being cute and friendly. Pet care fits in my schedule every day of the week rather it's caring for my own pet, or taking care of someone else's. It would have to be either after I get off work or before I go in. On weekends anytime would work. How I/we care for our pets at home is by walking our dog 3-4 times a day depend on how many times she has to use the bathroom. And by also feeding her 2-3 times a day depending on how much she ate the time before. -We walk our dog in the morning before work, when we get home from work, and at night before we go to bed. Majority of the we’ll feed her after she goes out in the morning and then feed her again when we get home from work.
About: I've been surrounded by pets my whole life, both cats and dogs. In college, I worked at a dog daycare, where I learned professional skills for taking care of pets as well! These skills helped me learn how to interact with different types of dogs and different energy levels. I also am a cat mom myself so I have plenty of cat experience. I love all animals and I'm incredibly communicative to parents since that's been my experience with Rover sitters. I currently work from home, at a full time remote job! I have flexibility so I’m able to do a few dog walks everyday and full pet sitting as well since I can bring my computer anywhere! While in a pet owners home, I will be cautious to follow instructions and keep your pet safe and happy. I can crate your pet if you prefer and I will always leave your home as clean as I found it.
About: Hello! My name is Amy. I do work M-F, but am flexible for drops ins and walks most days. I will confirm this prior to booking. I'm happy to send plenty of photos of your pet to you during any check ins or strolls. I am experienced with dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes, as well as fish, small reptiles, and birds that are cockatoo sized or smaller. I would love to help out you and your pets! I hope to hear from you and work with you very soon ! I have a senior cat and 3 dogs of my own (a great pyr mix, a larger hound mix, and a great dane mix). I am comfortable administering medications and have experience with injections, should your animal be diabetic etc. I am comfortable with some behavioral issues as well, to include leash reactivity, as long as the pet and myself can both be safe. I have a hybrid job so I am in the office some days, and fully home on others. We would discuss this prior to booking. I am off on the weekends and fully available for all of your pet needs. I am off on all major holidays. I am happy to follow any requests! I am happy to abide by any alarms, cameras in the home, etc and will follow your requests regarding photos during the visit.
About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies and rescue dogs to senior dogs needing specialized attention, including my 16-year-old diabetic beagle who required daily medication, monitoring, and lots of extra love and patience. In my home, dogs are family. They’re welcome on the furniture, get plenty of affection, and are treated like part of the pack. Your pup will have lots of supervision, attention, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. My community also has a dog park where dogs can safely run around and burn off energy. Whether your dog needs overnight care, walks, drop-in visits, or just a comfortable home away from home, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for.

“Andrea is a wonderful dog walker! She is reliable, punctual, and trustworthy. She responds quickly and is great at communication. I always look forward to seeing the Rover Card she fills out after walking my dog. I can tell from the pictures she sends that my dog has a great time with her! I'm so glad I found her on Rover and highly recommend her!”
About: What sets me apart isn't just a love for dogs — it's a lifetime of it. I raised my own dog for 13 years, through every stage of her life, and recently said goodbye to her. That experience taught me patience, attentiveness, and the kind of deep care that only comes from truly bonding with an animal. When your dog is in my hands, they're not just being watched — they're being loved. Caring for pets fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I work from home, which means dogs in my care are never left alone for long. My apartment complex has a dog park right on-site, making it easy to give pups plenty of fresh air, exercise, and socialization throughout the day. Having raised my own dog for 13 years, structure and daily care come naturally to me. I treat every pet in my care as my own. My home is a calm, safe, and loving environment. I pay close attention to each dog's individual personality and needs, and I always keep owners updated with regular check-ins. After 13 years of raising my own dog, I know how important trust and communication are for pet owners leaving their fur baby in someone else's hands.
“My child is always delighted to see her and brings so much joy. She consistently takes excellent care of him and pays close attention to their needs. She inform me if there is anything unusual or requiring attention.”
About: With a lifelong love of animals and experience, caring for everything from tiny puppies to giant breeds, rescue dogs and cats, I bring patience, compassion, and a genuine understanding of each pets individual needs. Growing up with a variety of animals has taught me that every animal has their own personality, comfort level, and way of showing affection. I believe great pet care starts with getting to know your pet whether that means keeping up with an energetic pup giving a rescue time to feel comfortable or sticking closely to your pets familiar routine. I take the time to make sure they feel safe happy and cared for. You can expect dependable care, plenty of affection and thoughtful communication while you’re away. I know how much your pets mean to you and I want you to feel ease knowing they’re carrying hands and walks in potty breaks to playtime, companionship. My goal is to make your pets day a little brighter and give you one less thing to worry about! I’m working toward making pet care my primary focus, which allows me to offer flexible daytime availability for walks and drop in visits. I’m happy to work with your schedule and your pets individual routine whether that means morning walks, midday potty breaks, feeding, playtime or a little extra companionship while you’re away. I aim to provide consistent dependable care that fits naturally into your pet day. I’m happy to discuss recurring visits as well as an occasional bookings and I’ll always do my best to accommodate your pets needs. When caring for your pets in your home, I want you to feel just as comfortable trusting me with your space as you do with your pets, I’ll treat your home the same respect and care I would my own keeping things tidy, following your household routine, and making sure everything is just as you left it. My priority is to help your pets feel safe and comfortable in a familiar environment. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special needs, while giving them plenty of love and attention along the way. I’m happy to send updates and photos so you have peace of mind while you’re away. I believe caring for someone’s pet also means respecting the home and routines they’re used to. You can count on me to be thoughtful, responsible, and attentive to both your pets and your space.
“Jill is a great dog walker. She is clearly loves animals, is very attentive to their needs, and is reliable. Most importantly, my dog Summit really likes her. We could not be more pleased!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs all of my life. I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15. When I was in middle school I would go door to door to walk peoples dog's. I worked in a dog daycare in New York which I really in enjoyed. I prefer animals than people! I’m currently working part-time so I’ll have lots of time to keep your doggie or cat occupied. Saturdays and Sundays I’m off from my part time job so I’m home all day!! I have an extra room that will have lots of toys for them to play with and I’ll take them on walks around the neighborhood or at the park!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kirkland
Stephanie has been wonderful with both my mother amd her 15 yearold dog. She is kind, thoughtful, and takes time for both of them. It has meant so much to my 89 year old mom to have Stephanie come by twice a day to take Daisy for a nice long slow walk. Both Daisy and my mom are doing so much better since Stephanie started. We are all very grateful to her for her compassion and reliability.
We’ve always relied on friends and family to care for our dog, so trusting someone new was a big step for us. Bonnie exceeded every expectation. I left her a detailed list of instructions, and she followed every one with great care and attention to detail. She was punctual, kind, responsive, and it was obvious from the start how much she genuinely loves animals. Throughout the entire experience, we felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in such capable and caring hands. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, compassionate, and will treat your pet like one of their own, I can’t recommend Bonnie highly enough. She was absolutely wonderful, and we will definitely be using her again.
I cannot recommend Jennifer highly enough! It gives me tremendous peace of mind knowing my dog is in such caring and capable hands. Walker is dependable, professional, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. My dog gets excited every time they arrive, which says everything I need to know. Communication is excellent, with updates and photos that make me feel connected even when I’m away. Walker is always punctual, attentive to my dog’s needs, and goes above and beyond to ensure every walk is safe, fun, and enriching. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy who will care for your pet like their own, Jennifer is the perfect choice. Five stars!
Lacey is fabulous! He is polite, patient, and flexible. He walked my 89 year old mother’s dog and handled her constantly changing requests with grace and kindness. Her old dog adapted quickly to his visits and waited by the door for him to arrive. He arrived on time for every walk, printed out the schedule for my mom who forgets things, and was just all-around wonderful. I highly recommend him and thank him for everything he has done.
