About: I’m a pre-vet student with extensive hands-on experience caring for animals of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and currently have two dogs at home, including one that was a rescue! In addition to personal experience, I also have experience working with animals in veterinary settings, both hands-on and behind the scenes. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering medications, senior pet care, puppies/kittens, and monitoring pets for signs of stress or illness. I also have knowledge of basic pet first aid and am comfortable handling post-surgery and recovery care when given instructions. I genuinely love working with animals and always prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I treat and love all animals like my own and will accommodate to care for each pet’s specific needs and personality! I’m a college student home for the summer with a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the day. I work part-time and also spend time each week shadowing in veterinary clinics to continue gaining hands-on experience in animal care and veterinary medicine. Even with those commitments, I carefully schedule pet sitting around them so I can provide pets with the time, attention, and care they deserve through walks, drop-in visits, and even overnight stays. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away, so I always do my best to maintain their normal routine in their home environment. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, and I’m comfortable with crates, medications, specific feeding schedules, walks, overnight care, and post-surgery/recovery care. As a pre-vet student who regularly shadows in veterinary clinics, I’m attentive, responsible, and I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being!

“Mckinzey has been great with our pup Coco. She has been reliable, professional, and patient with Coco’s hesitation and vocalization surrounding people she doesn’t know.”

About: I have watched dogs ever since I was little. I started with a family friends two huskies. They loved to run in their yard and would come visit us on days that we weren't watching them by jumping the fence. When I was 10 or 11 we got our first dog and then we got another a few years later. My wife and I now have three dogs all of which are rescues. I can help with any animals so long as I have a few days heads up that you need help. I have experience watching pretty much every kind of pet from snakes to horses. If you need your dog, or even your cat, walked than I will be happy to help. I can even just stop by to make sure that everyone has a chance to go outside throughout the day. I can stop by and just sit with your pets or I can take them out into the yard and run or throw the ball with them. I am also happy to take them out on long or short walks depending on the pets needs and age. If anybody need medicine I have plenty of experience giving it to them as well as giving dogs physical therapy while recovering from surgery.

I have good experience walking dogs and caring for them and I always enjoy it and make sure the dog does too! Currently I have plenty of availability for walking, playing, and caring for your pups!

About: Most dogs on Rover are being booked for walks. What I offer is different. This service is for dogs who are getting out, but still not truly getting the kind of output that changes how they carry themselves afterward. A short walk can be enough for bathroom breaks and basic movement, but it often doesn’t do much for dogs with bigger engines. I provide structured running sessions on repeat neighborhood routes at a steady, controlled pace. The goal is not random exercise or excitement. The goal is real physical output delivered in a way that stays consistent from week to week. And that difference matters. Because when the pace is steady, the route is familiar, and the session is long enough to actually count, dogs tend to use energy more evenly instead of just getting briefly stimulated. Owners often notice their dogs settle more easily at home, feel less restless through the day, and carry themselves more calmly after consistent runs. I use an electric longboard setup so I can maintain that steady pace while staying focused on your dog, the terrain, and the environment the entire session. It allows the run to stay controlled and repeatable instead of turning into a stop-and-start walk or an inconsistent jog. *Most dogs who fit this service do best running twice per week once their rhythm is established. ➣ Sessions are scheduled on fixed days each week, not rotating times. This keeps your dog's routine predictable and helps their body adapt to the physical rhythm. Routes stay consistent, and when a route reaches capacity, new dogs join through a waitlist. *Most dogs settle into a twice-per-week schedule once their rhythm is established. ➣ Dogs run on repeat neighborhood routes with controlled pacing each session. ➣ Pickup and return happens directly at your home. ➣ I run using a controlled electric longboard setup that allows dogs to maintain steady running pace while I stay focused on pacing, terrain, and the surrounding environment. ➣ Routes repeat week to week so dogs know what to expect and settle into the rhythm of the run. ➣ Sessions are capped to protect safety and consistency across the route.

About: My husband Jeff and I have 2 dogs and no kids. Our dogs are our kids! Our dogs are about 2 years old and get along well with other dogs. Both of us grew up with dogs and have had dogs that are both young and senior. We give our dogs lots of time and attention. We are responsible pet owners and believe in keeping them healthy, loved, safe, and part of our pack! I am retired and my husband works part-time so one of us is almost always home to care for your pet(s). If we are gone for a few hours, our dogs are caged in the house. Usually, it is if we go out for dinner or the store, so it's for short periods. If your dog does not do caging, that's ok as long as they are good! We have a large fenced yard. Our 6 foot privacy fence also has wire mesh at the bottom of the fence to make sure dogs are safe and can't get out (or other animals get in). Our dogs are about 3 years old and get along well with other dogs. They love to play and are free to move in the house and the yard, and they get regular walks. Dogs are allowed on furniture. We would love to be your pet sitter while you are away, and you can be confident your doggie will be happy, safe and loved!

About: I have been a long time pet owner. On Oct. 17, 2023 I lost my little dog Neil. He was 12 years old and meant the world to me. He was my faithful companion and travel partner. Before moving to Ohio in November 2023, I spent the past 3 years living in Mexico volunteering with a rescue organization which gave me an even broader insight into caring for animals. I apply that knowledge and care to other animals. I am a mother and grandmother to humans, but I love my pets like they are my children. You can expect the same love, care and treatment of your pets when I care for them. I have experience with dogs and cats ranging from puppies/kittens to seniors; pets requiring medical care to very active ones. I’m certain that I can care for your fur baby, too. I am a stay at home grandma that has free time during the day making me available for drop-in checks, play dates and walks with your pet. Visits after 4pm can be arranged with advance notice. My time is my own, making it easy to care for your pet in their own home, be it for a day or for the length of your vacation. I will care for your pet at your home according to your specific instructions. I ask that pets be up to date on all vaccinations. Any food or treats that you would like your pet to have should be provided by you. I do not provide those due to the potential risk of allergies and/or special dietary restrictions your pet may have.

I treat every pet like family and focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.

About: I’m currently living on campus at my college and I come from a company in my hometown called HomeWard Bound which is a pet-care company that is very similar to Rover. I have many months of experience which lead me to enjoy this job and wanting to continue it when I live on campus. Over the summer I will be mainly free since my priority is occupying my time with taking care of animals and learning more about them! I care with patience and trust. I allow the pet to warm up to me if needed, no forcing. I follow instructions thoroughly since I have experience from taking care of numerous amount of animals.
