“Vilma came over last minute for a meet and greet to meet my anxious boy. My boy didn’t allow himself to be taken out from the crate and on a walk, but I so appreciate Vilma’s patience with him.”

About: Spending time outdoors and staying active is a huge part of my life — I'm a fitness trainer by profession, so daily walks, runs, and playtime are second nature to me. Whether your pup loves long strolls or your cat needs a calm companion while you're away, I’m here to help. I grew up in a home where caring for animals was a part of daily life — both of my parents are veterinarians. Because of that, I’ve been comfortable around dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments from a young age. I understand how to read their body language and give them the care and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities! I am available all weekdays 10am-5pm. However, I am very flexible if needed just let me know any special requests! I will be the most to be accommodating. I have great confidence taking care of your animals since I have grown up around them! For walks, please have a collar and leash provided for use.

About: I’ve had at least 1 pet my entire life, so I’m no stranger to caring for pets in my home. Beginning in middle school and until now, I’ve been entrusted by family, friends, and coworkers to take care of their pets while they’re away. I have experience with house visits, walking or dog park trips, and overnight care. While I don’t have direct experience with pets who require medical attention, I’d be happy to learn with you. I do have experience with senior pet care. Overall, I guarantee I’ll take care of your pet like my own! I recently graduated from PA school and am job searching currently, so I have plenty of time to play with your pets! I’m available for daytime care or overnight care daily. When looking after your pet, I will always take care of them like my own. I’m happy to play with them in the yard, take them on walks or to the park, lounge with them on the couch on a rainy day, or crate them if needed. I can stick to strict meal or medication times and will ensure they have potty breaks with appropriate clean up.

About: I have lived with and loved animals my entire life. Growing up, I learned to care for puppies, adult dogs and cats, rescues, and guinea pigs. Safety and compassion for your pet are my top priorities. I will meet your pet with what they need. I am a recent graduate from the University of North Carolina School of the Arts. I am home for the summer and work a part-time job. I am willing to work out a schedule with you and your pet. Compassion and safety are my priorities, but when caring for your pet, your priorities are my priorities. I respect how you would like your animal to be cared for. Whatever your pet needs, I will go out of my way to make sure they are taken care of.

About: Growing up we had three dogs and they all lived very long lives and unfortunately passed within the span of a few months. We rescued two beautiful cocker spaniels Charlie and Minx to go along with our family dog Maya who was coincidentally a cocker spaniel. My job in the family was always to take care of the cats, dogs, and rabbits. I loved taking care of animals and my favorite activity was going for walks with the dogs. I currently am enrolled at MATC and am in the radiography program. I have a long break before registration for the Radiography petition window is open and would love to spend my extra free time taking care of pets. I also set my availability as available for all days of the week to accommodate last minute appointments. From our cat Moo to my leopard gecko Richard all of the animals in my house are pampered daily. I would treat each clients animal the same way that I treat mine. All animals are treasures and we as humans are honestly blessed to get to take care of them. All animals have different personalities and I believe that each one requires different kinds of care. Some animals loved to be touched and held whereas some are hesitant at first or it may make them anxious. Being able to respect and discern these traits early on will help make the animal feel more relaxed and trust you.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals my whole life, as my mom is a veterinarian and instilled in me a deep respect for their care. I have experience with pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior pets needing extra patience. What sets me apart is my reliability, calm nature, and ability to follow detailed instructions, including administering medications. I truly treat every pet like family, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I enjoy daily walks, playtime, and companionship with animals. I structure my schedule to prioritize pets’ needs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for throughout the day. I care for pets by creating a calm, secure environment and following their usual routines. Whether in my home or a client’s, I provide consistent attention, fresh water, regular exercise, and plenty of affection while respecting any special instructions, dietary needs, or training guidelines.

About: What sets me apart is the level of love, patience, and attention I give to every pet in my care. Whether it’s a bouncy puppy learning the ropes or a sweet senior needing extra support, I tailor my care to fit each pet’s unique needs. I have experience with basic puppy training, including leash manners, crate comfort, and potty routines. I’m also confident caring for senior dogs—administering medication, helping with mobility, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Your pet won’t just get a sitter—they’ll get a new friend who truly cares, communicates well, and treats them like family. As a student with a very flexible school schedule, I’m able to plan my days around pet care pretty easily—as long as I have a little notice, I can make it work! I love spending time with animals, whether it's getting outside for a good walk or just hanging out at home. On weekends, you can usually find me curled up with a furry friend or two—it’s honestly my favorite way to relax. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure pets feel secure, loved, and right at home—whether that means sticking to their usual routine, keeping their environment calm, or giving them extra one-on-one attention. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and follow all instructions carefully—from feeding schedules to walk times and any special quirks your pet may have. In my home, I keep things clean, cozy, and pet-friendly, with lots of snuggle spots and safe spaces to relax. Building trust with both pets and their people is important to me, and I always aim to communicate clearly and keep you updated so you feel at ease while you're away.

About: I’ve cared and loved for dogs since I was probably 8 (if not younger). If your dog needs a buddy to run around with, play, snuggle, or just needs someone around to watch them if they’re a little naughty, I got you covered. I’ve cared for puppies, elderly dogs, well behaved and not so well behaved pets. I have provided oral medication as well as maintaining hygiene with baths. I understand every dog has a different daily routine, and i’m happy to make sure your dog is as comfortable and happy as possible. I work at Target, mainly closing shifts but an occasional morning (willing to share more in depth schedule if you have questions, just ask!) I always have off on Wednesdays and usually another day of the week. If you need long term care, let me know 3+ weeks in advance and I can happily assist! I am available most mornings. However, I have a pretty much open availability for cats needing to stay at my apartment for an any period of time. Again, if you have any questions about certain days just ask! To add: I go back to college on September first. I only have classes in the morning (other than Wednesday’s). I am totally willing to work around this schedule to help you in whatever way is possible! At my home, I have 2 cats and tons of toy options to choose from. I unfortunately cannot hold dogs in my apartment, I would love to, however I live in a smaller apartment with not much yard space and that just feels unfair to the dog. At your home, I will do the best I can to follow your pets daily routine unless given other instructions.

About: As a physician assistant student, I’m looking to earn some extra cash to help pay off my student loans while doing something I love❣️ I care for people every day, so let me extend that same care to your beloved pets! With over 10 years of experience, a passion for animals, and an active lifestyle, I’m the perfect match for your furry friend. Whether they love long walks, playtime, or just some extra attention, I’m here to make sure they’re happy and well cared for! I’m a full-time clinical student with a dynamic schedule that changes often. To make things easier, I’ll keep my availability updated on my profile, so you’ll always know when I’m free! I’m super flexible and happy to work during the week, weekends, and even overnight stays. Unfortunately, my apartment complex doesn’t allow overnight stays for dogs. However, I’d be more than happy to stay at your home to care for your beloved furry family member! ❤️🐶🐱

About: My name is Tishara I am from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I have volunteered in multiple humane societies for a good year, working with all kinds of pets and learning about their behavior. I also was a past walker on rover 3 years ago as a side job when I attended high school. So, I’m Glad I am able to continue my journey with Rover, and will be able to walk different kinds of dogs or cats. I will treat your companion with the same amount of care as I would want my pet to be treated with. I am the ultimate dog lover and really enjoy spending time with them. I am confident that my skills and experience make me a great candidate for this position. I work a standard 9–5 schedule Monday through Friday, so I make sure to build pet care into my mornings, evenings, and weekends. Each morning, I start the day by feeding my pet, refreshing their water, and taking them out for a short walk or some quick playtime before work. After I get home, I dedicate time to a longer walk or more active engagement to make sure they get the exercise and attention they need. On weekends, I usually carve out extra time for grooming, vet appointments if needed, and longer outings like park visits or socialization. I stay consistent with feeding and cleaning schedules, and I always make sure my pet feels cared for even during my busiest weeks. When caring for pets in my home, I maintain a clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment. I follow a consistent routine that includes regular feeding, fresh water, exercise, playtime, and any special care based on the pet’s needs, such as medication or grooming. I also make sure the space is secure and enriched with toys, comfort items, and plenty of interaction to keep pets happy and stress-free.

About: ## INTRODUCTION Howdy there, thanks for choosing my Rover! I go by Billy! First things first — My highest priority is the safety and well-being of any dog in my care. Outside of that, I'm also big on making sure they have a blast, are loved, and feel secure in my home. I am energetic and warm, yet firm. I've owned and raised 4 dogs over the course of 18 years, from puppydom to old age, and have cared for many more. I am adept at handling dogs large and small - physically and training-wise. ## SCHEDULE I am fortunate to have a highly flexible schedule. Your dog will always be safe by my side. I’m quite fond of dogs, so it’s a joy for me to spend my time in this way. ## APPROACH TO CARE I want to understand the needs and expected behaviors of any pet in my care, given your specific guidance and instructions. I am highly communicative and err on the side of caution, as your doggo’s safety and well-being are absolutely the highest priority for me. I have a highly flexible schedule since I'm in the middle of a job search, so I'll have all the time in the world to hang, play with, and co-work with your pup! I have the entire upper floor of my house available for your dog to lounge and roam in, equipped with multiple dog beds and lots of toys. There's also a fenced yard in the back whose concretedness is optimal for ball bouncing and catching, keep away, chasing, and more!

“Vanessa has been walking my dog regularly for several weeks now and I couldn’t be happier with her help. She’s been very patient and loving with my dog, flexible on the schedule, and provides great walk reports and pictures. Thanks, Vanessa!”

“I felt really comfortable with Erica walking my dog a couple times today while I had a long day at work. She was on time for both walks, and was very mindful of my dog’s needs. She also kept in contact with me all day which helped me relax a little and I felt like my dog was in good hands!”

About: I grew up with a cocker spaniel named Tiffany. I had a cat for 18.5 years who I had since the day he was born. I adopted a dog during the 2020 stay at home orders, he is now 4 years old. I have been able to work from home permanently since 2021 and that has given me the opportunity to be home all day with my boy. I have been pet sitting on rover for the past year and love caring for all your babies. I work from home so I can be home with your pet all day. I am home most evenings during the week. My weekends will have a more varied schedule but I am more than willing to work with you to meet the needs of your pet. I typically walk my own dog twice a day and am willing to provide whatever amount of exercise your pet needs. I have a fully fenced in yard where your dog is allowed to explore and play. I have a security camera I typically watch when the dogs are in the yard. I'm happy to provide whatever activity your pet needs including walks, fetch, or dog parks (if allowed).
