Sheri took GREAT care of my dogs, communicating promptly when one of them barfed up something strange (he’s fine) and checking on him later in the day. She also added an unscheduled morning walk and feeding when my flight was delayed. She’s a pro.

About: I have three dogs that I have trained and taken care of since they were puppies. My oldest is 10 years and youngest is 4 years old. They are my world and I truly love training and taking care of them. I am my friends and family's go to pet sitter when they are out of town, so my pups are used to having other dog visitors! I'm very reliable and will treat all animals as if they are my own. I'm on Rover so I can meet and take care of other dogs instead of adding another to my pack ;) I work from home mostly so I am flexible regarding when I can take care of your pet. Morning, lunchtime, or evening walks - I will try to accommodate to whatever you and your pet needs! I have three friendly dogs and a large fenced yard. I’m downstairs with my pups all day while working from home. I enjoy taking breaks and playing with them through out the day.

Savanah was great walking my 2 beagles. She was always on time and my dogs really liked her.. one of my dogs is a little special and Savanah seems to figure that out and made her feel more comfortable when walking with her. I would recommend her!

About: I have several years of experience providing care, supervision, and support to children and families in educational and daycare settings. Through these roles, I’ve developed strong skills in patience, responsibility, communication, and creating safe, nurturing environments. I bring that same level of care and attention to every pet I watch. I am comfortable following feeding schedules, administering basic care, providing exercise and enrichment, and ensuring pets feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I have experience caring for my own cat and enjoy spending time with animals of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I am available 24/7 throughout the summer and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive, consistent care for pets. Whether your pet needs boarding, daycare, drop-in visits, or walks, I can accommodate a variety of schedules and routines. I make it a priority to ensure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship throughout the day so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel at home. I live in a three-story townhome with plenty of indoor space for pets to relax and play. While I do not have a fenced yard, there are several nearby walking trails where dogs can enjoy regular exercise and outdoor time. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I prioritize safety, supervision, and positive interactions at all times and provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while their pets are in my care.

About: I have taken care of pets since I was young girl. I also have worked as a Veterinary Technician on Langley Air Force Base. I enjoy pet sitting all kinds of animals, especially dogs and cats. I am retired and involved in some weekly activities, so pet sitting fits perfectly with my schedule. I enjoy the freedom and flexibility of pet sitting, not to mention the joy of being around pets. I am attentive, detail oriented and versatile. I believe in leaving things the way I found them, or better. I always strife to do my best at whatever I do, and I am a very trustworthy person.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life, from big high-energy breeds to tiny puppies that needed extra attention. I’m calm, patient, and very comfortable with anxious or shy dogs. I’ve even helped with a newborn puppy delivery when the mom needed assistance. Friends, coworkers and family have trusted me for years to walk, feed, bathe, crate, and give their pets structure and comfort while they’re away. As an active-duty Navy instructor, I bring reliability, communication, and a clean, respectful approach to every home I stay in. I currently work part-time with short 4-hour shifts every other day, which gives me plenty of time for overnights, drop-ins, and walks throughout the week. My schedule is very consistent, so I’m able to give your pets lots of attention and keep routines stable. I treat every home with respect and keep things clean and organized while you’re away. I’m very comfortable with big breeds, anxious pups, and dogs who need a little extra patience. I follow your routines closely and give your pets a calm, structured, and safe environment.

About: I’ve always loved animals, I have a 3 year old Australian Shepherd and he is my whole world. I will treat your fur baby with the love, care, and attention that I show my own fur baby. When I’m watching your pet, they will be safe, happy, and have the best time! I currently work full time, but I am available late evenings on week days and all day on most weekends. I am always happy to be flexible with my schedule. I live in an apartment so my dog gets plenty of walks, outdoor time, mental, and physical stimulation throughout the day. I provide a calming, safe environment in my home for my pup, and I bring that same calm and caring energy to every animal I meet.

About: I have loved animals all my life, and my experience has ranged from caring for my own pets, to short-term and long-term fostering for friends and military families. I have cared for dogs, cats, hamsters, lizards, bunnies, birds and small livestock. I love them and treat them all as though they are my own. I am currently a currently a stay at home mom, and my children are now all school-aged. I care for my animals at home, and I have an open schedule, heart, and home to care for other animals. I have a about 1.3 acres of land with a dedicated (vinyl) fenced in area for dogs so I have plenty of room for outdoor playtime. Indoors, a few of my animals are crated at night based on their individual needs but all walk freely during the day. In your home, I am open to whatever is most comfortable for your pet.

Hope was wonderful to work with. She was very easy-going and did a wonderful job communicating with us. She gave a recap her time with Vader which was nice to read and we were very comfortable using her as a dog-walker for our pup. We look forward to hiring her again in the future! Thanks Hope!

About: I have owned many dogs/cats/ducks/horses. I have been relied on by many family members and friends to check in their furry friends.

About: What sets me apart is the level of love and care I give to every dog as if they were my own. I’m a dedicated dog owner to two pups of my own, and they are truly part of my family. Because of that, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I provide a calm, loving, and attentive environment where dogs feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Your dog won’t just be watched—they’ll be treated like family, with plenty of affection, patience, and attention. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently have open availability, which allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention, and care throughout the day. On weekends, I’m flexible and happy to spend as much time as needed with them, making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and I make it a priority in my schedule. In my home, pets can enjoy our large backyard and the company of my two friendly dogs. If I’m caring for pets in your home, I follow your routine and schedule so your furry friend feels safe, comfortable, and at home. Either way, they’ll get plenty of love, play, and attention.
