About: I’ve been caring for my pet dogs my whole life and will stop at nothing to make sure your pet receives proper care and attention. I am well-equipped to handle pets with lots of energy and will ensure your dog gets a proper amount of play time! I’m currently a college student at GW with a very light course load this semester and have lots of free time on weekdays and weekends to walk/care your pet. I am open to following any specifications you may have for your pet’s care. I can administer any necessary medication or facilitate the proper exercise routine.
About: I’ve taken care of many friends and family’s pets over the past 10 years. I grew up with my grandparents who had 5-7 dogs at one time. I’m very comfortable with multiple pets. I’m currently off for summer break so I have very open availability. I am available for drop ins, walks and over night stays if needed. I live in an area that has a large gated dog park and many areas to take your pup on walks or they can be crated if preferred.
About: I have been working with dogs for past 3 years in a professional environment as a kennel attendant. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and shapes as well as cats. I know how to train basic behaviors and of course have administered medication and cared for senior and young pups. I am also experienced in exotic pet care from reptiles to small mammals. I have always had a huge love for animals and will be using Rover as a full time job to care and make sure I prioritize your animal. I always make sure the thoroughly read through care instructions and schedules for every dog and reference them as needed. Schedules and routine is imperative for every pet so their stress levels are not high as your out of town or at work
About: My experience includes caring for cats and doggies, including pups, with a variety of personalities and energy levels. Super comfortable following detailed care instructions, maintaining feeding and medication schedules when needed, managing puppy potty breaks and exercise, and providing the same attention (and cuddles) for kitties. I prioritize safety, consistency, and positive interactions to ensure pets feel well cared for in my care. I currently work remotely and have a flexible schedule, so there are no restraints due to my work schedule. This allows me to do drop ins when needed as well as at home care/boarding attentively. I have a two bedroom apartment where pets can roam and hang out in the common living space and guest room, as needed. Pets will not be allowed in my primary bedroom.
About: I have experience in helping my mom and grandma with their dogs. I truly enjoy caring for them. I love getting outside and playing with them. I currently work 3 days a week at the hospital. I have flexibility to care for pets during the week. I normally have about 4 days a week I could help. Safety is paramount. I always ensure each pet is safe for the duration of their stay with me. I treat each pet as if they’re my own.
About: I love all animals and have experience pet sitting dogs of all breeds and ages, cats, reptiles, rodents, & birds. I am also experienced giving medicine, insulin shots, and special diets. I have previously volunteered at the humane society, APA, and wildlife center of MO as well. I'm excited for the opportunity to get to know your pet! I am currently a stay at home mom, so my schedule is very flexible. I would love to spend time playing with your pets while keeping them on their usual schedule! I will be able to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home. I am more than happy to follow any instructions you may have to keep your pet on schedule and comfortable while you're away!
“Sarah is absolutely amazing with my fur babies. After recently moving here and all the chaos of moving and home repairs I was traveling and Sarah dealt with it all like a pro. Even when the cats or the dog were feeling out of sorts, she made sure to love on them and care for them and understand how to make the situation better. Even when one of the cats was acting out and had outside-the-box behavior, Sarah handled it like the professional she is. I think my pets will miss her more than they will be excited to see me! I highly recommend Sarah. She is a phenomenal, loving caregiver for my pets.”
“Katelyn really was taken with the boys and they with her. She played with them and cuddled, then sent pictures every day. I never felt a moments worry, I had complete confidence in Katelyn and I wasn’t disappointed. Would re-book with her in a heartbeat!”
“Jon did a great job watching over my two dogs for over a week. He is very experienced and therefore could connect with my dogs right away. He communicated and reported on time and very professionally and met his commitments as planned. Definitely will get a hold of Jon again! Very thankful about his help!”
“I always book Rover last minute, because I never know when I can take a short one or two day vacation. They stepped in and did great and took care of my fur babies. Thank you so very much.”
About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life. I have my own dog who is almost 7 that I've been taking care of since he was three months old. I clip his nails, cut his hair, bathe him, take him on walks daily, feed him wet dry and raw food. He's a Maltese so I have to clean his face and eyes a lot. I brush his teeth and he's a very happy dog. Our family dog passed away in September 2023 and he had cancer so he needed a bit more special care when he got older and I would take care of him as well. He was a small shih-tzu and had a lot of issues so he always needed a little extra care. My aunts have a golden retriever that I dog sit a lot as well and I dog sat him when he was a baby so I can definitely take care of big dogs as well. I take care of my own dog and my two cats so pet care fits into my daily routine 24/7. I take care of all three of them and their separate routines. I clip all their nails, bathe them, feed them, they all sleep in my room, and I clean up after all three. I'm very familiar with pet care to say. I have a very big grass fenced in yard that my dog loves to run around. He's very sweet and calm and could get along with other dogs. I have two kitties that are actually very sweet and will be friends with other cats. And if not I have two homes they could stay in. I have crates if needed. I have everything needed for dogs including food, beds, treats, brushes, crates, blankets. And evrything for cats including beds, towers,scratching posts, food, treats, brushes and a very clean and uncluttered environment for your pet to stay in!
About: I've never been without at least one dog, even as a child. I've cared for both big and small dogs. I've always been an animal magnet, and the go to person for pet sitting. I want to take away the stress (for you and them) of your fur baby being home alone and do my best to make them feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I work long hours on Monday-Wednesday, giving me Thursday- Sunday off every week, so I have ample time on my off days to give your pets all the love and attention they need I'm willing to do whatever it is that your fur baby may need. I'll follow any and all instructions that you have, whether it's just feeding, letting them out and giving scratches to giving any medications that they may need. I want your experience to be stress free and for you to be able to trust that your baby will be getting the best care
“…simply amazing!!! Taylor thank you for providing our fur baby with the love and care he needed during our vacation. Our fur baby enjoyed you, he was happy in the photos and videos. We thank you and will gladly utilize your services again!”
About: I’m a passionate care taker. I grew up with many house hold pets and animals of different kinds from farm animals to house hold pets. I’m a musician so I primarily spend my mornings practicing after breakfast. Then I like to go on walks with my pet Chihuahua Lilo. Most of my days aside from work is music art and taking care of the dog. I’d prefer to not board pets at my house because my Chihuahua is very anxious and uncomfortable around other dogs. Aside from that I prefer to follow the instructions on caretaking rather than putting decisions in my own hands. Every pet and breed are different and have different personalities depending on how they were raised so I want to create a frictionless style of care and lean heavy on habits and routine that the owner already established with they’re pet.
“Bethany did such an amazing job! She was able to take our request last minute when our other sitter fell through and literally saved my birthday weekend. Her notes were thorough and I knew our babies were being well taken care of. 10/10 recommend!”
About: Animal Behaviorist | Vet Experience | Gentle, Confident Care for Every Personality 🐾 I bring years of hands-on experience in both veterinary care and animal behavior. I’m confident working with nervous, high-energy, and reactive pets, and I prioritize safety, calm handling, and individualized care so every pet feels secure, understood, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I work full-time as an Operations Manager for mobile vaccine clinics, but I offer consistent availability before work, during lunch breaks, and in the evenings. I’m reliable, communicative, and able to provide dependable drop-in visits and walks that fit seamlessly into your pet’s routine. With a background in veterinary care and behavior, safety is always my top priority. During drop-ins and walks, I pay close attention to behavior and surroundings, follow routines carefully, and ensure pets feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for in their home environment.

Absolutely great! Super friendly, understanding, flexible and the cutest fur baby! So grateful to have had her and making this vacation less stressful for us as we've never had a dog sitter before. The pictures were the best addition as well, thanks a million! Will ask for you again and recommend you highly by name.
Courtney is a warm, professional and detail oriented person who wants to do the best job possible. She saved the day when my regular sitter was unable to help. She was calm and meeting my somewhat reactive German Shepherd and was comfortable with that dogs energy which probably made the dog feel much more comfortable. They became good friends at the end. I would highly recommend her!
Kelsi was great, accepted for us last minute as first sitter cancelled and we were stuck 600 miles away. She came over for a p.m. walk within a couple of hours. She saved us for sure! She gave thorough update and plenty of pics. We will try to book with her again next trip we take!
Lacey has been wonderful to work with. She’s patient, caring and very responsive! Working with our new puppy and our older rescue was a special experience and Lacey did an awesome job checking in with them, respecting their limits and communicating with me about their visits. I’d definitely book Lacey again as my pups have grown very comfortable with her!
