“Heather took great care of our cat Delilah while we were away! It was nice to know that the litter and food/water were fresh for Delilah. I’m sure she loved the attention and playing with her cat toys!”

About: Over the past 25 years, I've had numerous dogs, all of whom are now dearly departed. I've taken care of dogs with a variety of needs - from mobility issues, to senior-specific care, to special diets. I've used Rover for my own dogs for a decade, and know what pet parents are looking for. I am home most of the day and my husband works remote, so your pooches will get very attentive care. I also live near a school with a large campus to walk around, perfect for more high energy breeds. I am home most of the day, so I have plenty of time to devote to attending your dog's needs. I can accommodate pet care almost any time of the week. I treat all dogs with the kindness and love they deserve. I am very familiar with shy or anxious dogs as well. I've used Rover a lot over the years, so I know how important it is to trust the person you're leaving your companion with.

“Alicia gave me peace of mind to leave my fur babies using Rover for the first time. She has great energy with the dogs and kept control, even with the big one that can be stubbornly sometimes. Alicia was always consistent and timely with great communication throughout. We will happily be using her again.”

“I cannot say anything other than the most positive things about my experience with Bri. From the moment I met her on the meet and greet to the moment I booked her, I felt completely at ease and so comfortable. My dogs took to her very quickly. I have a hard time finding reliable and professional dog sitters so I am very thankful to have found Bri. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a local sitter. Did I mention she was on time and very flexible?! Amazing experience.”

About: I have had a dog most of my life, and I love taking care of my family and friends' dogs. I have a 10 year old daughter who loves animals and will give your dog lots of attention. ** MUST be kid friendly** I work from home most of the time so my schedule is flexible. I am able to provide regular walks, provide lots of play time and frequent bathroom breaks. I have a quite a large yard and live in a neighborhood with plenty of space for long walks. However, the yard is not fenced in. ** I only accept one dog at a time, unless they are currently living together.
“Melissa was amazing!! She took great care of our kitten, was super communicative, and went above and beyond! It was our first time leaving our cat and she was great at playing with her and making sure her needs were met, plus keeping us in the loop the entire way!”

About: I’ve lived with dogs since I was born, and have been the designated pet sitter for all sorts of critters since I was able. I have experience with dog training (reactive dogs as well), and have volunteered at shelters and wildlife refuges so I have som experience with animal medicine and care beyond feeding and walking. I’m currently working from home and can work from anywhere. If you need a day sitter or walker, I can work from your place and take care of your pet as needed! I can also do overnight stays with some notice! I am highly focused on the well being of all pets and animals, and will be sure that I have the most information possible to ensure I am caring for your pet as you see fit. This begins with establishing expectations of simple things like feeding and walking schedules, and goes on to medication giving and monitoring of pets with conditions or concerns in their daily lives.
About: I’ve taken care of many different kinds of dogs, mainly small to medium because I have 2 small dogs at home. I sometimes Foster for a few rescues as well. I crate train them and help get them ready for adoption. I have experience with puppies to Senior 🐶❤️ I work from home and able to board on weekends and possibly during the weeks as well. My 2 little dogs are laid back and sleep most of the day. I have a fenced in yard and have a playpen as well if needed. I work from home 8-5 and can keep an eye on my furry friends during the day and available after 5pm and weekends
“Adam was kind, thorough, and communicative. I always received a photo and an update on my babies while I was gone. Adam truly loves animals and it’s reflected in his work!”
About: Experienced working with a variety of animals- dogs, cats, chickens, goats, aquatic pets (turtles, frogs, fish, etc.). Experience as a vet assistant provides strong foundation in caring for medically complex and senior pets, comfortable administering medications. While on break from school until May 2026, I have gaps in my schedule that will allow me to frequently check in on your pets throughout the day. Currently care for my two pups at home. I enjoy pet care as it helps to provide a purposeful break from school. Caring for animals feels like second nature with my schedule, and I’m able to seamlessly provide for your pets while maintaining my school schedule without any lapse in care. I provide a close eye on the animals that I care for, and due to my experience as a veterinary assistant I am able to recognize potential medical needs of your animal companions. I’m comfortable walking pets, supervising them in a fenced in yard, or any other method that your pet uses to go outside! While in your home, I maintain close proximity to your pets, and engage them in enriching activities during my time with them.
“Emilie was great with our puppy, Shasta! She came by twice in one evening—once for a potty break and some playtime, and then again later for dinner, another potty break, and more play. Emilie was perfectly on time for both visits, took great photos, and spent quality time with Shasta during each drop-in. When we got home, Shasta was a happy and tired pup—and, coincidentally, she slept in until 8am for the first time ever! She must’ve felt content and well cared for. We really appreciated Emilie’s attention and care, and would definitely recommend her!”

“Lisa is awesome! She was able to help out last minute and she did a phenomenal job dropping in on my dogs. They are happy and so am I. I plan to use her again in the future.”

“Natalie was great with my cats! It was a last minute booking and she was so accommodating. She took great photos and kept me updated while I was gone. Highly recommend!”

About: My family and I have had dogs and cats a part of our family for my entire life. I have had dogs in the family since I was little; and most recently have had the pleasure of three lovely ladies; two of which we have raised from puppies. I can care for dogs both young and old, as well as cats. I also have cats in my family, including some with health issues. My life revolves around my pets, and I’d love for your pets to be a part of that too! I’m working part time currently, as well as completing my high school education, but other than that my schedule is pretty open; specifically in afternoons or weekend mornings! I have crated dog experience, hyper dog experience, older dog experience, big/heavy dog experience, dog and cat interaction experience, and multiple dogs in a household experience.
“Jessica is the best! She is reliable, so easy to work with, and always quick to respond. And she is so great with my cat! Jessica really loves animals and makes sure they get lots of love and cuddles. I feel so lucky to have found Jessica, she is truly amazing!”

“Grace is wonderful! Thank you so much for spending time and taking care of my 4 month old puppy while I could not. Great communication, photos, flexible and punctual. The best. Will use her again!”


“Marissa is great every time she spends time with my dogs. She always goes above and beyond! My female dog is always more hesitant with people who aren’t me, and she’s had no trouble accepting Marissa. My aunt always requests her specifically when she knows I have to get a sitter.”

Amy was great! We needed a last minute booking and she was so responsive. We were so nervous because our dogs are usually with family if they aren’t with us but she kept us updated and sent us pictures. The dogs seemed great and happy when we got home. She kept our fears at bay and we are so grateful!

Emilie was great with our puppy, Shasta! She came by twice in one evening—once for a potty break and some playtime, and then again later for dinner, another potty break, and more play. Emilie was perfectly on time for both visits, took great photos, and spent quality time with Shasta during each drop-in. When we got home, Shasta was a happy and tired pup—and, coincidentally, she slept in until 8am for the first time ever! She must’ve felt content and well cared for. We really appreciated Emilie’s attention and care, and would definitely recommend her!

Sophie was amazing and accommodating us last minute and checking in on our puppy, Remi! She communicated well and our dog was happy to see her when she came to check in and walk her. Sophie even was available for a last minute meet & greet to get to know our shy pup before checking in on her later that week. Thank you so much Sophie!
