About: I have taken care of pets since I was little and I have volunteered with many animal shelters with walking dogs, feeding, and grooming for example. I do work full time so I can take your pet for walks on weekends and holidays from 6 am to 2 pm mostly on Saturdays and Sundays I will take your pet for potty breaks, walks, or just to stop in and love on them. If you have a cat I can always scoop the litter box or refill water

“Great”


“First time using Rover, and Jennifer was the best experience I could’ve asked for. Visited Tennessee with my 2 Newfoundlands and decided once we got here we want them to have company while we are out, and Jennifer responded quickly with open availability/flexibility. She came the next day and spent hours with them, and they were comfortable with her from the beginning. Truly the best experience we could’ve asked for, she took great care and just talking with her you can see the passion she has for animals. Thank you so much Jennifer!”


“We used Storm on 2 different occasions. Both times we were very happy with the care she provided for my Cooper. We spent 8 days in Aruba so being out of the country Added to my concerns of leaving my big boy behind. But Storm came through taking such care of Cooper. She took a lot of pictures along with daily updates. So if you need a sitter I highly recommend Storm for your sweet babies. Rick”

“Beth is a fantastic sitter. My dog and my cats are so happy to see her. She constantly sends me videos and pictures and lets me know how they’re doing. I just love her.”


“Jataelynn was an amazing puppy sitter. She made us feel comfortable about leaving our 3 dogs with and took such great care of them. She communicated throughout the stay and asked questions, as needed. We would definitely recommend her and would not hesitate to book her in the future!”


“Kacy is fantastic! I was a nervous first time Rover user and she helped me feel comfortable by being responsive, flexible, and very kind. She sent tons of updates while we were out of the country for over a week. My high anxiety dog and skittish cat loved her. Would definitely book with Kacy again!”


“Hannah was awesome great with our fur babies we highly recommend her”


About: There are only brief periods that I have not had at least one pet. Currently, one small Jack Russell mix, Taki, and a tuxedo cat, Charlie. I had a chocolate lab named Jenny for 12 years. She hiked and backpacked with me. Even slept in my hammock with me. I am retired and have a lot of flexibility in the days that I am available. No need for me to be rushed. I enjoy spending time with dogs and cats. If your pet has a lot of energy, I will play with them. My dog is usually wherever I am. I carry on a conversation with him a large part of my day. He has continuous food and water. I understand that continuous food isn't possible for some dogs. constantly checking

About: I work in animal welfare as an Intake Specialist/Team Lead at the local municipal shelter (SACC). I function as a kennel technician in the AM hours, and there are often 75+ animals in my care daily. I have quite a bit of medical knowledge and am in tune with the needs of companion animals. Though it's my job (and an exhausting one!), I love to care for animals in my free time. Being a voice for those who can't speak is my passion! I work roughly 9-10 hours daily (off Thursday and Sunday, with wiggle room on Wednesdays), but can leave during my lunch hour to care for animals in a home, and my evenings are almost always free. I can do overnights at your home and early morning visits. I will try my best to accommodate your scheduling needs. I will work to keep up any routine your fur babies might require, including scheduled feeding times and medications. I am all about enrichment and will do whatever your pet needs to remain comfortable in your absence.

About: Hi, I'm Sarah! As a true animal lover I've been raising and caring for all sorts of animals my whole life- it comes very naturally to me. I am adept at caring for dogs at all stages of dog-life, including puppies and older dogs. Regardless of what your sweet pup needs, they need to feel that the person looking after them is intuitive, calming, and reassuring. Also, I am comfortable administering all types of medicine. We have a big backyard and a doggy door! The fence is 4ft high. I'm lucky to work from home which means I spend A LOT of time with your baby while looking after them. Whether it's playtime in the yard, an evening walk, cuddling on the couch, or simply keeping them company throughout the day, your pet's well-being is my priority. My schedule allows for tailored care routines, ensuring that your furbaby feels comfortable and loved during their stay. Additionally, being at home enables me to stay in touch with frequent updates for your peace of mind, and I love to send photos!! Your pet's safety and happiness are my TOP priorities, and I am committed to providing them with the utmost care and attention. There is nothing more important to me than the safety of your pet! Our big grassy backyard is securely fenced (4ft high), providing plenty of space for your pet to explore and frolic while preventing any potential escape. The deck provides cozy spots for sunny naps and relaxation, while our carport serves as the shaded general lounge area where we spend a lot of time. Because each pet is unique and some require special attention, I welcome any information you can provide regarding your pet's tendencies which will empower me to tailor their care accordingly to maintain their safety at all times. Ultimately, my goal is to provide a safe, trustworthy, and nurturing environment for your pet. Your furbaby will be in capable hands, receiving the utmost care and attention every step of the way.

About: Embarking on my pet walking journey with enthusiasm, I'm a newbie, fueled by passion, committed to providing your furry friends with the best care and joyful strolls. Ready for an unforgettable experience! Flexible, just talk to me. I'm thrilled to blend my love for hiking into pet walks, offering unique and energetic experience for your furry friends! With a heart full of pet love and prior experience, I will treat every furry friend like family! Patience is my forte, ensuring a caring environment for every pet, including my beloved cat!
