About: I’m an experienced and reliable dog caregiver with a background caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including puppies, seniors, and more challenging breeds. I offer drop-in visits, walks, and overnight boarding, always focusing on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I work full-time with a rotating schedule, but I’m available all day on my days off and in the mornings on workdays for visits, walks, and feedings. I live in a quiet condo with open space nearby. I have a friendly dog for companionship or can keep pets separated if needed, with extra rooms and a crate available for safety.

“Came home to happy pups, not frantic or nervous. Brent obviously followed my instruction/requests to the letter. Note that one of my dogs was only 3 mos. old and needed specific on time breaks and play. Would feel absolutely confident having Brent back again!”

About: Hey there! I’m Aaliyah, your furry companion’s new best friend 🐾 As a lifelong pet lover and owner, I truly understand the deep bond we share with our animals. When life gets busy or you need to be away, it’s only natural to want someone who will care for your pets with the same patience, love, and attentiveness you do. That’s exactly where I come in… I have hands on experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, including senior pups, blind dogs, tripods, deaf pups, fresh litters, and dogs with anxiety who need a calm, reassuring presence. I’m also comfortable caring for asthmatic cats and pets who require extra monitoring, gentle handling, or medication routines. My experience spans beyond dogs, Ive cared for cats, bunnies, fish, snakes, turtles, and hedgehogs, so I’m confident adapting to a wide range of needs. At home, I’m a proud pet parent to a cat, a Husky, and a Shiba Inu, which has only deepened my understanding of unique personalities and characteristics of specific breeds. I’m currently a stay at home mom, former Montessori teacher and have availability weekdays and weekends! I also have flexibility for longer trips or vacations, just let me know!! I am available for drop ins and house sitting so your furry companion can feel as comfortable and safe as possible while you are away!! There, I’ll give them as many treats, hugs and snuggles as their heart desires! Your furbabies, plants AND your home will be in great hands while you are away!

“Sylvia was great and took wonderful care of our dog, Orion. She asked lost of questions and made sure she understood everything my about how to best care for him. She was trustworthy and forthcoming about everything that occurred while we were away. I would absolutely recommend her!”

About: I’ve taken care of family members dogs along with my personal pet for multiple years! Having a connection with an animal is important. I am new on the app! I currently work from mid day to evenings so morning walks are something that would fit into my schedule perfectly. Most days of the week my mornings are free We don’t have a fence but I have experience crating dogs along with a background customer service so what’s best for you and your pet I can get done!

“Rowyn was absolutely amazing!! I cannot say enough great things about her and her compassion, professionalism and how fantastic she was with my two almost 17 year old kitties! They require oral medication every day, which can be challenging, and on the first day, one was being difficult and refusing the medication, I had told her she could leave since she had already been there longer than the standard allotted drop-in visit time, but she was determined to make sure they both had their medication and was patient and stayed until they both finally took the medication. She absolutely went above and beyond, and was so attentive, so communicative and sent so many pictures! She always arrived on time, despite my saying the timing was flexible! She is someone we completely trusted with the care of our cats and also felt 100% comfortable coming and going from our house. She also went above and beyond and even did some cleaning so when we got home from vacation, we had nothing to worry about!! I cannot recommend Rowyn more highly! Thank you Rowyn for giving us so much peace of mind while away!! Will absolutely book with Rowyn again in the future!”

Meghan L.

“I’m not even sure where to start, Erin was AMAZING! We had an issue with the door handle that she took care of, the dogs had a rough day and she handled it, she got my mail, and even cleaned up some dog hair! One of our pups decided to go on a hunger strike and she got him eating again by hand feeding him! I would not hesitate for a second to have her back! She was the best and I highly recommend her!”

About: What sets me apart is that caring for dogs is more than a side hustle for me—it’s part of who I am. After years as a tax professional, I stepped away to slow down and live with more peace. In my walk with Christ, I’ve learned the value of patience, consistency, and unconditional love—qualities that shine through when I’m caring for dogs. I truly enjoy their company and treat them like family. As a child, my father bred American Akitas, and I've owned and cared for over 25 dogs between myself and my wife. I've been around dogs my whole life. I enjoy their company, whether it’s a quiet cuddle, an energetic walk, or simply sitting with them so they feel safe and cared for. I know how important it is to trust the person looking after your pet, so I provide reliable communication, regular updates, and the kind of attention that makes your dog feel at home. Every pup in my care is treated like family, because that’s what they deserve. After stepping away from the busyness of my old career, dogs are more a part of my everyday life, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I spend time daily walking or playing, feeding, and caring for my own dogs, and I structure my schedule so I can give full attention to the pets I look after. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening feedings, I build my days around making sure dogs are comfortable and cared for. I enjoy the consistency and companionship they bring—it’s part of what keeps me grounded and fulfilled. In my home, safety and comfort come first. We live on 1.5 acres of land where I’ve trained my own dogs to respect boundaries and stay on property, but all guest dogs remain on-leash when outside unless otherwise agreed. I offer multiple housing options depending on the size and personality of your dog—ranging from crates (14in, 28in, or 48in metal) to larger 6x6x10 indoor kennel enclosures in our spacious 1200 sq ft basement. For social dogs, I’m able to introduce them carefully to my own confident and balanced dogs, but if separation is needed, I can easily house them apart. Guest dogs also spend plenty of time with me upstairs so they don’t feel isolated. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely—feeding, walk schedules, and house rules—while providing my own expertise where it benefits the dog. My only request is to use a slip lead leash, as it provides safer, more secure control, especially for larger or energetic breeds. I am comfortable administering medication, following special diets, and working with anxious dogs who need extra playtime or structure to relax. With years of experience handling XL American Bullies, combined with my calm demeanor and strong physical presence (6’4”, 275 lbs), I have yet to meet a dog I can’t handle safely. My goal is always to create a safe, trusting environment where your dog feels secure and cared for like family. During bookings, I personally supervise any minor children in my home to ensure all pets remain safe and comfortable. I understand Rover’s Guarantee applies to sitters and the booked pets, not to other family members.
