About: I have years of experience of care for dogs and cats alike! I’ve fostered, dog walked, and house sat including being flown to Florida for house sitting with a hyper active breed. I work a 9-5 for a local business and have ample time on weekends and after 5pm on week days. I would like to walk in afternoons and sit on weekends for those whose schedules align with mine. I grew up with dogs, but currently have a cat who is spoiled to the nines. I use automatic feeders so that she is feed when I am at work, filtered water fountains, and a litter robots. I like to keep spaces clean and a schedule routine.

About: I've had a dog since my teens and have dog sat for various friends and family over the years. We've owned along basically the whole size spectrum, from literally chiuahua to great dane. I have a split work from home schedule so I can watch your pups from Wednesday evening to Sunday. Those days I would be able to stay full time and provide whatever level of attention your dog needs We have a ~600 sqft fenced in yard and dog door, but we would lock and supervise outings for potential diggers and hurdlers (fence is 4 ft).

Upon our initial Meet & Greet with Adam, my partner and I immediately felt good about working with them. Adam’s sensitivity, attunement, and ability to relate to animals was present from the moment they were introduced to our cat, Gonzi. Adam spent two weeks house/cat-siting while we were abroad and took care of him with an attentiveness and affection equaling our own. We received regular video and photo updates during our vacation. (Adam is a filmmaker, so the videos were extra special). In the videos Gonzi was purring, and had clearly developed a close bond with Adam, something that is quite unusual for Gonzi. Adam’s messages and videos made clear that they are conscientious and thoughtful about how important such updates are for pet owners. As well as being very prompt in communication, Adam was also flexible. Our flight was late, and they kindly made an extra visit that evening after the stay had officially ended. Upon our return, Gonzi was happy and healthy, and had clearly been very well taken care of. Our home was very clean and tidy as well. Adam was a perfect cat sitter for us. Their Rover profile states, “Loving and Professional Care,” which could not be truer. We will have no hesitation in asking Adam to cat/house-sit for us in the future, and we recommend them enthusiastically to other pet owners.

About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life- dogs, cats, turtles, birds, hamsters! When i went to college, I began fostering dogs and cats whenever I could. I also enjoy volunteering at local animals shelters to bring dogs on walks. Animals truly bring me so much joy! I teach yoga for a living so i have a pretty flexible schedule with a lot of free time during the day! I definitely need some extra work to keep me busy! I won’t be offering my home. However, I’d be happy to walk dogs- i can go on long walks if preferred. I can feed them and play with them outside and give them lots of love!

About: I have taken care of pets since I was 10. From family pets (dogs and cats) to friends, I've been available to assist in at home care and walking depending on the need. I'm currently working part-time at a barre studio and I also substitute at schools. On days I substitute (unless the schools are on holiday) I am not free until after 2 pm. On days I work at the studio, I have time throughout the day before and after shifts to check on any furry friends. I cannot currently host furry friends at my apartment. However, I am open and available to pet sitting at your home as I have done that many times in the past. It is a great way to not interrupt your pet's routine.

About: Hello, my name is Maya and I would be happy to help you with any pet needs you may have. I’ve pet sat in a wide range of settings as well as looked after many different breeds. I enjoy spending time with animals and being out in nature and I consider this arrangement to be less work and more fun. That being said, I understand the responsibility it takes to look after someone else’s pet and take great care in keeping you pets safe and happy. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! :) I’m a self employed creative and have a very flexible schedule. I do work many side jobs so it is best to let me know a couple days to a week ahead of time. I cannot provide home services at this time unfortunately. My landlord won’t permit pets at my place. I would happily dog or cat sit at your home.

About: A work-from-home dog mom with 10+ years of pet care experience. I would love to host your dog (or cat). I have cared for pets my entire life, having grown up around both dogs and cats. I currently have two Corgi pups of my own (ages 3 and 4) who are very sociable and up to date on all vaccinations. My flexible schedule allows me to provide your pet with whatever they may need—whether that means around-the-clock care or just a daily walk to stretch those legs. I'm happy to accommodate any special needs you or your pet may have. I have experience administering medications (pills, liquids, and injections) and am fully capable of caring for special-needs pups. Pets are part of our families. As a pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to have peace of mind when you're away. Whether it’s for an hour, a day, or a week, my goal is to provide that peace through regular communication and check-ins. As a work-from-home professional, I'm home the majority of the day and able to give your pet consistent attention, affection, and supervision. Walks, playtime, feeding, and potty breaks are seamlessly built into the schedule. My flexible availability allows me to adjust my day to meet your pet’s specific needs—whether that's administering medication, offering extra cuddle time, or sticking to a strict routine. Your pet becomes part of our daily life, not just a task on a list. The home has a fenced yard for safe play and is free of any toxic plants/hazards. Dogs will always be supervised during their play and potty time. The home is dog-proof and any possible hazards to your pet's health have been addressed. As we have 2 dogs of our own - If your dog requires solo care for whatever reason, there is a second house/office on the property with it's own backyard I use for petsitting.

About: I’ve been a dog mom for 3+ years to two pit bulls and a chihuahua (yes, they’re all best friends!). That mix alone has taught me patience, structure, and how to make sure every pup feels safe and loved. Beyond my own crew, I’ve cared for dogs of all shapes and sizes for different families—turning daily walks, playtime, and even simple feedings into fun, stress-free experiences. I make it my goal to treat each dog like they’re part of the pack. Whether it’s snuggles, exercise, or just keeping routines consistent, I bring energy, reliability, and lots of love. Every day I fit my dogs into my routine with morning walks, feeding, and playtime before I head out. When I’m home, they get cuddle time, training refreshers, and another walk to burn energy. Balancing two pit bulls and a chihuahua keeps me consistent, patient, and organized—so caring for other dogs naturally fits right into my day. I always make sure food, toys, and spaces are safe for all sizes of dogs. Walks are done with secure leashes and harnesses, and I never take chances with off-leash time. At home, I keep routines structured, supervise play, and separate dogs if needed to make sure everyone feels comfortable. Safety is always my first priority, right alongside love and fun.

About: I’ve lived with and taken care of dogs since my early childhood. My grandfather worked for a dog kennel so quality pet care is in my blood. I currently plan on Pet walking and sitting on weekends and after 4pm on weekdays. I work full time and get off at 4pm which is right on time for walks, food and enrichment activities. I care for pets by making sure that they are consistently stimulated, whether that be music, petting, walks, conversation, play or mental enrichment. Your pet will be treated like family when you book with me :)

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life! I have a dog of my own, and have grown up with big and small dogs. I take care of my sisters dog all the time, and he is a peppy chihuahua who I adore! I recently wrapped up a contract with Jazz Fest and am looking to fill my free time with something I’m truly passionate about. I’ve always loved animals, and I can’t think of a better way to spend my time than by helping and being around them! When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment that mirrors the pet’s routine as closely as possible. I take time to learn each pet’s unique needs—whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, favorite toys, or daily walks—and follow any instructions provided by the owner with close attention. For in-home visits, I’m respectful of the client’s space, maintain cleanliness, and provide regular updates with photos or messages to give peace of mind. My goal is always to build trust—not just with the pet, but with the owner as well—so everyone feels confident and at ease.

About: I always pay attention to the happiness and well being of animals. I trust myself to nuture and care for every cat and dog as if it were my own I grew up in a single parent home with two younger brothers , being the eldest, I knew about responsibility from a young age. Since then I've had the great fortune to travel across the US and the other magnificent countries. This has also allowed me to interact with fellow animal lovers and owners. It's great to be a part of Rover as I am a natural born animal lover who wants to keep your pet at ease and comfortable while away from their person. I studied massage therapy and the healing arts and practice with a highly flexible schedule and very reliable. I love applying my training to connect with the energy and temperament of every unique and beautiful animal I have the special opportunity to connect with and care for. I truly love animals! I must admit, while I love all animals, I especially love cats. It's important for me to know that your pets will be well loved, have their play time and keep their routines and are safe and happy while you are away. So please keep me informed to the special needs and the likes and the dislikes of your fur babies. Thanks for reading about my style and I wish you and your pet(s) the best! Please do not hesitate to ask me anything you may further want to know about me or especially do not be shy if you have a situation that is, for whatever reason, not so common. I'm very flexible and accomodating, as I said I'm nice but not shy so I'll be honest about whether or not I can accommodate unique situations. Thanks again! Jen I look forward to spending time with your pets and giving them the care and joy that you would if you were there. I I'm happy to be relied upon to give animals a happy and warm experience while away from their owners. I take notes of what the pet is used to and what they like. The things they enjoy, treats as well as activities. This is because being away from their people can cause stress and the things I mentioned create a feeling of safety for the pet. I also ask the owner what to expect from their pet, do they usually get anxiety, are they pretty good about being separated. It is just so I can mentally prepare a little plan of action in my mind to better soothe the pet while you are away. I am patient, loving and generous with attention and affection. This helps to better reinforce that they are safe and everything is ok. I take time to assure the pet they are ok, and associate my being there with positive things and actions. Sometimes just because a pet isn't showing obvious signs of dismay doesn't mean they aren't struggling with the absence of their human(s).

About: I’ve loved animals pretty much my whole life. I got my first dog when I was 15 and I’ve been taking care of him ever since. When I was 13, I’d walk dogs in my neighborhood for some cash, that was my first experience with working with pets. I’m very patient and forgiving which is what makes me a good dog sitter. I’m a full time student, I go to school Tuesdays and Thursdays but I am available every other day of the week and I work from home. I will be providing a caring experience for each of the dogs. I have a big fenced yard perfect to play in and a dog park just five minutes away from my house if the weather calls for it. I have family members who are also big animal people so there will be plenty of loving to go around.
