“Thank you Emily for taking such good care of Nala while we were away for a day trip. Your visits were right on time and just what Nala needed to keep her happy for the day. I also appreciated the check ins and photos you sent throughout the day. She also brought in a package that was delivered while we were gone. Thanks so much!”


“I’m very particular about my cat. So, I left lengthy instructions for Justine to follow. This the first time that I’ve used Rover. She was extremely patient with walking me through the sitter process and also following my instructions. She has been amazing during her 1st week with us. I appreciate her thorough communication too.”


About: Hello, my name is Shannon and I am a middle school science teacher! I recently lost my Australian Cattle dog, Keegan and I am ready to reopen my heart to care for your pet. I have been a dog owner my entire life, and have cared for others' dogs while they were on vacation. I live in an apartment complex that has two private dog parks and a nearby walking trail. I understand that dogs are family, and finding a pet sitter/walker is difficult. I can assure you that your dog will be very happy and well taken care of during their stay. I look forward to meeting your dog and providing the opportunity for you to go on vacation with peace of mind. If interested in dog walking or drop-ins, I am available after the school day. If you are interested in dog boarding. My mother and I work hand in hand to care for your pet, she helps during the school day. When boarding, I only take one dog at a time to ensure all my attention is on your pet. Dogs have free rein of the space and are not crated unless requested by the owner. My apartment complex has two private dog parks and a walking trail. When dropping in on a clients house, it is important to understand the routines of the dogs to make sure they are comfortable.

“Thank you Hannah for hanging with Teddy!!!! The photos and updates are the best! We can always tell he is played with and has a great time.”

“Kerry was very communicative and reliable as usual. I don’t have to worry about my kitties when I’m away because I know Kerry gives them all the love and care they need! I will be happy to hire her again in the future!”


“Kelly is awesome, and was even willing to swing by and let the dogs out last minute when I got in a car accident coming home from work. Highly reccomended.”


“Traci was amazing with our cat for the week we were away. He is a shy one and she handled him perfectly, gave him his space, and made sure he was well taken care of. We couldn’t have had a better experience!”

About: I'm 100% an animal lover! I've had 3 dogs growing up and multiple cats. I’ve also had 3 male Nigerian dwarf goats! I currently have 3 dogs, Hazel, Lexi, and Timber and a cat! Hazel, Lexi, and Timber love playing with all dogs big or small! If you need help with your fur baby, we would love to help! We love going for walks and making new friends! No matter if your fur baby is a dog or cat, I will treat them as if they were my own and make sure that they each get all the love and attention they need! I also have experience with reptiles and fish, so if you need extra help with your other pets, I’m the girl! Thank you for checking out my page, I hope to hear from you soon!! I dog walk full time and my schedule is always flexible! Im available 7days a week between the hours of 7am-7pm, but I’ll adjust my schedule to work for you and your fur babies!

About: Your pets safety and happiness is my top priority. I have experience working in multiple doggy daycares, volunteering at a cat shelter, and pet sitting for friends and family. I am familiar with all types of breeds, big & small, energetic, couch potato, reactive and non reactive. Helping animals has always been a great passion of mine and I strive for new challenges to face. I currently work PT as a Dietary Aid making my schedule very limited monday’s, thursdays and every other weekends. I have more availability on the other days of the week, (walks, drop in visits, and overnight care). Dogs tend to be more comfortable in their own homes so I provide those services to ensure the happiness and safety of all. For every visit, I bring a pet first aid kit, extra leashes, towels, treats, water/water bowls, tick removal kit, pooper scooper, etc. Your pet will receive the spoiled treatment with me!

Diamante P.

“I have an 11 month Golden Retriever “Nova” that is my absolute WORLD. Up until a couple of months ago I always had family available to take care of him while I worked so I never had to worry. It was a very stressful and worrisome time for me to trust that someone I have never met before would take care of him the way I wanted him to be taken care of, I have never hired a dog walker before. It was very last minute for me and I found Diamante on Rover right away. I am so happy I did! She takes care of my baby like he is her own. She makes sure he gets good excercise by taking him for a nice long walk and spends some time visiting and playing with him. She always updates me when she arrives by text and sends me pics of my pup too:) I always have a list for her everyday because I like to know he is well taken care of and she has never missed one thing on my list, she updates me with everything she has done at the end of each visit. Nova loves her and I am so happy we found her! ❤️”

Alexis P.
“Alexis is an exceptional pet sitter! My cats absolutely love when Miss Alexis comes over. I never have to worry about my fur babies while I'm away because I know they're in the best hands. She takes such wonderful care of them, and her kindness and patience truly stand out—especially with my timid cat, Lucy. Lucy rarely comes out of hiding for anyone, but she happily greets Alexis, which speaks volumes about the trust she’s built. Alexis consistently keeps us updated with photos, quickly communicates any concerns, and genuinely cares for our cats as if they were her own. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable, compassionate pet sitter!”
