“Susan does a fantastic job with my cat! Looks after other little things in the house just to make it wonderful to come home and make my cat's life a little better too. He's not mad at me for leaving anymore.”
About: As a work-from-home father, my flexible schedule accommodates needy pups or cats requiring frequent visits or overnight care. I currently have 2 small dogs and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. If you live in this area, I'm here for you! I also run (slowly) so if you have a dog that wants to run off energy for a few miles, I'm in! I work from home with minimal meetings (about 5 hours/week.) so I can make frequent visits during the day or even take my computer over to your place if you have good wi-fi! I have a fenced-in backyard of about 3/4 an acre. My two small dogs are friendly and we are glad to introduce them if this interests you and your dog. Our dogs have free run of the house and sleep on the bed.
“She has pet sat for us several times and every time she has gone above and beyond. This past trip we were gone internationally and never had one concern because I knew Abigail had it under control!!”
About: Hello! I am an avid pet lover, having owned two dogs and a cat. I have experience with anxious and senile pets, as well as walking cats. I am also a quick learner for any other needs, so just let me know pet-specific needs! I love to cook elevated pet meals enriched with beef, fresh veggies, fish oil, etc and also am a strong supporter of animal enrichment such as treat puzzles and learning new tricks! If your pet needs to be the only pet, let me know and I can accommodate for you. I work from Monday to Thursday, and I have the rest of the time with no other commitments. As this is my only obligation, I have the time to give my full attention to your pet! Before booking, I would love to chat with you to make sure this is a good match! Getting to know you and your pet can help ensure a successful trip for your pet. I would love to know details such as your pets’ personality, likes/dislikes, fears, and anything else you deem important. I am located walking distance to a vet as well as Zonolite Park. We can go for long walks there or doggy play dates with a close neighbors’ dog if you would like! I have many years’ experience babysitting, so understand this dynamic well. My goal is to help everyone feel comfortable and priority is your pet’s wellbeing and happiness. I am excited to meet you and your pet!
About: Hi! I’m new to Rover, but have been walking and taking care of dogs for years! Not around to take your dog out for a walk to ensure he or she gets the exercise and potty time they need? I will be sure to get your happy pup out for some fresh air and fun time! Maybe you’re a busy college student with an exam or commitment and you just simply want your dog to be able to get out of the house for awhile! I can help with that too. My housemate owns a dog rescue back home, so we’ve been looking after friends’ and family’s dogs for years. We’ve learned that getting your dogs out for 30-60 minute walks/runs are crucial to not only the dogs health but also the owners piece of mind that they’re dog is on track to live a long and healthy lifestyle.
“Highly recommend Hannah to pet sit. She looked after our 2 cats while we went on vacation for a week. Hannah was communicative, responsive and the kitties were happy too. Highly recommend!”
“Shaynna is absolutely amazing! She came to meet the cats and talk about their routine a week before we left for vacation. We were out of town for 10 days, and never worried about our cats. We received daily reports and pictures. Shaynna will be hired again if we go out of town. We highly recommend her!”

About: I have had the honor of having dogs my entire life. Recently, helped my daughter potty training her last to rescue puppies. They have become protectors of my grandchildren. I'm currently enjoying my summer break and would love to offer my services for walks during the early mornings and evenings. On cooler days, I’m also available for midday walks. Additionally, if you need overnight care, I can provide that service in your home upon request. Currently, I do not have pets in my home, as I do not have a fenced yard that would allow them to safely play and enjoy outdoor activities.
“Caitlyn was an amazing sitter. The booking was truly last minute and she responded right away. She was super attentive to our furry friends and, when we returned, surprised us with teaching one of our dogs a new trick! I would definitely recommend her for anyone interested in having someone who is truly caring watch over their pets.”
About: I have been taking care of all types of animals, big and small my whole life. I've been a professional pet groomer for 3 years now and would like to broaden my horizon. I will put my heart and sole into caring for your beloved pet. I will care for your fur babies as if they were my own. You will not be disappointed, I guarantee that!! My schedule is flexible to make your pets care my priority and work around your schedule. I'm available morning, noon and/or night, weekdays and/or weekends. I live in a neighborhood that is safe for walking in. I also, live near two nice parks that I walk to quite often. I'm very active and love to walk and hike.

About: I've been surrounded by pets my entire life and currently share my home with four cats and two dogs. I deeply understand the special bond people have with their animals, and connecting with pets of all kinds comes naturally to me. I love visiting animal shelters, offering my time and warmth to those in need. I've cared for animals with a variety of challenges, from rescuing two stray cats, one missing an eye, to helping my anxious and aggressive rescue dog feel safe. Managing daily my cat's ear infection treatment has also taught me patience and dedication. Whether spending time with my own pets or learning through educational pet care videos, caring for animals is truly my passion. I have a flexible schedule due to me being a college student. I always find time to take care of my pets and look forward to fitting my clients' pet care schedule into my daily routine. I like to spend quality time with all pets and give them individual attention fit to their personality so they feel safe, loved, and cared for. Caring for 6 pets of my own, I’ve learned to adapt my care to multiple pet behaviors.
About: I have raised 3 puppies for the Seeing Eye program by myself as well as helping my family raise 5 additional dogs, and I have puppy sat on numerous occasions for family members, neighbors, and friends. I have trained puppies basic commands, housebreaking, and behaving in public with other humans and dogs. I am most available Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, and I am able to work overnight most nights. My availability on Thursday- Sunday varies depending on my part time work schedule. I am a college student, so I will be away for some periods of time, but I have already marked off the days I am unavailable. I can give dogs bathroom breaks, meals, walks, basic grooming, pets, treats, and crating depending on the dog's needs. I will adjust my care according to the owner's expectations and or concerns.
