About: I grew up training and showing dogs! I've also been a trusted volunteer dog walker/foster parent for local humane societies in the past, taking care of dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and ages! My family frequently fostered litters of puppies as young as 6 weeks. I also have plenty of experience with seniors and the specific health problems that come with that, after loving my cocker spaniels right up to the end. Life doesn't allow me to have a dog of my own at the moment, so I'll jump on any chance for some pupper love! I daylight as a professional wildlife biologist, but I am currently between jobs and so have all the time in the world to give your four-legged companions! My schedule is wide open. Safety is, of course, the highest priority, and reading animal body language is the key to maintaining a safe and enjoyable environment for your pet and avoiding stressful situations. This is a skill I feel very confident with after so many years of varied pet care. Second to safety is fun! Whether that looks like a brisk walk, a casual stroll, a laser pointer, a game of fetch, or just getting some relaxed quality time in is entirely up to your pet. Regardless, I'm happy to fulfill their needs.
“Delaney is amazing! Such a great communicator, so sweet with my girls, and played with them every time she was with them. My girls were unbothered that I had even left!”
“Calli was great caring for my cat when I was out of town recently! She sent lots of pictures and updates, and my cat seemed more than happy in her care. I would gladly use Calli again in the future when needed.”
“Adrian was very attentive of our cat. He was there on time and always kept us informed. I would definitely recommend him for other Rover users and I would book him again.”
About: I have many pets of my own, including three dogs, two mice, a gecko, and a bunch of fish! I love taking care of animals and making sure they’re as happy as possible, even when their owner isn’t home. ❤️ During the summer I will be pretty free! However, during the school year I always make sure to change my schedule to accommodate the needs of your pets I take care of pets the way their owner wants me to! I will also play and give them lots of love. Feeding on time is important. I always make sure they have water so they are hydrated!
About: I’ve always had pets in my home growing up, and have experience taking care of all sorts of animals. Whether it’s chickens and goats on a farm, scheduled kitten feeds, or elderly dogs in need of care, I can do it all! I am extremely responsive and love to give updates and take silly photos of the animal(s) I am caring for. I’m currently working in a part time position from 8-2 Monday to Friday. While this schedule is not flexible, I am able to fit any type of pet care around these times. Whether it be early morning check-in’s, or in home care, I can work with you on what is needed! I am extremely flexible on whatever is needed to provide your animal with the utmost love and care. I always give updates and strive to go above and beyond to ensure your animal is comfortable and your home is well kept. It is never a problem to deal with any incidents that might come with your animal experiencing a new person in the home. I try to do my best to make sure they are loved on and know I am someone who will make sure they receive the best care!
About: I’ve been watching animals for ~8 years now, but I’ve had my own animals since birth! I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, bunnies, guinea pigs, cows, chickens, goats, fish, and more. Family friends and neighbors rely on me for help with their animals. I work a full time job, but am available in the mornings, evenings, weekends, and for overnights! I will always work to make time for your animals! I do drop ins and stay with pets frequently in other peoples home. I am consistent with my care and love to meet new animals.
About: I can't really think of a time I didn't have a dog, I've learned how to potty train puppies since I was little. Love dogs of all shapes and sizes. Know how to bowl and crate train, as well as all basic commands and care. We have a great shaded and fenced back yard with fresh water and a cool house with dog beds and crates. I've had lots of challenging dogs, and lots of sweet hearts. The two I have now are very good with other dogs, and I have two well behaved kids 2-4 that can be kept separate from the dogs if needed, as we have crates and a yard and multiple rooms (as well as experience in that). Recently got laid off from my blue collar job, so I have lots of free time on my hands rn. I usually let the dogs out as needed throughout the day as they want, or as the heat allows. I have a fenced backyard, and a secure home. Multiple dog crates and multiple spare rooms to separate/secure if needed. Plenty of fresh water and your food of choice only. Have basic care and medical knowledge for dogs, cats, and most pets.
“Jillian is the BEST cat-sitter we’ve ever had. My cats love her, she sends me updates daily (sometimes multiple times a day, it can never be too much), and she takes care of them so well. The first time I used Jillian’s services, my girl cat was prescribed a big capsule that other sitters struggled with giving her, and one sitter wouldn’t even try to give it to her. Jillian did so well with giving her the big capsule, and she was able to give her the smaller pill she was prescribed later too. Jillian is very friendly and easy to communicate with and reach when needed. She’s also very flexible with drop off and pick up times. I used her services twice but wish I had found her earlier so she could’ve cat sat more. I highly recommend her! She will take great care of your pets.”
“She was great and communicated well! She took special care to make sure a wound on our cat was healing. She wasn’t hesitant at all to do the litter which was really nice. Overall she did a great job and we will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I earned my certificate as a vet tech assistant in 2013 at Eastern New Mexico University (Roswell). I used to dog sit for a family friend for several years.

I've worked at vet clinics for over 10 years and went to school for pet care. I used to dog sit and I sometimes walk my neighbor's dog for extra money. I just have one cat currently in my home, but I've had years of experience working with animals. I know how animals how to make animals comfortable with me.
About: I have great experience in both dogs and cats. I’ve raised both of my kittens since they were about a month old, so I am confident in working with younger pets in addition to seniors. I grew up with dogs, whom it was my sole responsibility to take care of. I have experience with all different dog personality types, including hyper. I am confident in my ability to care for either your cat or dogs needs! I am a full time student at Tech who typically works full time throughout the school year. This summer I am taking online courses and that is my only engagement. I am available most of the time to help you and your pet in any way you need! I think watching a pet in their own home/environment is important to them feeling safe and secure. I can ensure that anything the pet needs, I will be there to do it. I love notes and instructions, and would love to know your pets daily schedule, medications, treats, and any crucial information for your pet’s needs, and will follow it to a T.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
