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.

“Ilene was great! We have a foster cat in quarantine with an infection and wanted someone to spend time with him while we were out of town. Ilene was able to give him some quality time and attention, he was a happy camper. The updates we got were good and the photos were perfect. Thank you!”



“Jeremy was an amazing cat sitter! Both my cats were immediately comfortable and really grew to like Jeremy’s daily visits and play time. Super responsive and always sending lots of pics for me to check in on- it’s was such a relief to have them in Jeremy’s care. Highly recommend!!!”


“McKenna helped us out with a last minute request. She is reliable and Hazel seemed to have a great time with her!”



About: PLEASE DO NOT MESSAGE ME IF YOU HAVE PENDING REQUESTS TO OTHER SITTERS. Please understand that when you send me a request, I have to turn down other potential clients while I wait for you to confirm. Thanks in advance for being a considerate neighbor and human. I had dogs all through childhood and college, and miss having a four-legged friend around! Sadly, my own work travel schedule prevents me from having a doggo of my own right now, so I thought that it would be a good compromise to lend a hand to other frequent flyers who love their pup too much to put them in the kennel. Rest assured that your dog will not get just a 15-minute lap around the block to pee, I'll take him or her to the dog park, on a hike, or if your pup is more low-key, I'll totally snuggle on the couch. My pet ownership experience is mostly with big dogs (sheperds), so that's definitely my soft spot, but I've taken care of all breeds and sizes through volunteering as a foster with a rescue group in my former home of Washington, DC. I have a reliable car, so it's easy for me to get to your place to check in a couple of times a day. I work from home, so I am pretty flexible. I do live with a sassy cat, but we live in a big duplex where pets can be separated if needed. I will strive to stick to your pet's usual routine whether I am sitting at your home or boarding in my own home. They are already missing their humans, and maintaining their routine gives them one less thing to be anxious about.

“Jahaira took great care of my senior kitty! She was excellent at responding and sending photo updates, as well as giving my cat her needed medication and wanted play time”


“Our kitty was in great spirits when we returned. It was evident that she had been well taken care of. Jackie was amenable to our requests and provided helpful and frequent updates. Thank you, Jackie!”


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.

“We always appreciate Lily's caring service. She even was able to accommodate a late date change, which was greatly appreciated. She always leaves a great report and pictures. We highly recommend her!”



About: I’ve never NOT had an animal in my life, and Rover is a great way to be around pets even more! Life with pets is the best way to live ☺️ I work from home remotely full-time with a very flexible schedule, and love to fill my break time with a drive or a walk. Perfect for taking care of someone’s pet! In a client’s home, I’ll take care of their pets with any space they have available (indoor play, outdoor fenced play, etc) or walk the dog outside as needed!

About: Hi! I’m Kat. I have experience looking after animals of all kinds - dogs (big and small), cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, turtles, you name it. I have three cats at home who get lovingly spoiled every day, and I have experience dog walking, dog-sitting (included overnight stays), and cat-sitting for neighbors, friends, and family. I have a genuine love for all types of animals, and I put their well-being, care, and enrichment above all else. I work from home as a jewelry maker, so my schedule during the week is flexible as can be. I can easily make time for morning, midday, and evening visits. I am detail-oriented and will follow any given care instructions to the letter. My goal is to treat your pet just like you would, with the same love and attention you give them every day.

About: I have taken care of my own small-sized dog for 6 years and initially adopted two big dogs that I loved and took care of! I was also a volunteer at the humane society where I was taught and trained different techniques to accommodate to different types of dogs to ensure comforability. I am currently working a part-time job so whenever I have free time, I want to spend it on something active that fits into my schedule. I adapt well to many personalities of dogs so it’s easy to understand their behavior. Training or crating is no big deal if need be!

Ashley W.
“Ashley is quite the do lover. She no only loves dogs but has tons of energy for those who like to be super active. In the time I have known Ashley she has not only watched dogs I've had and done an excellent job but she is also a former foster with a local dog rescue. When fostering with an off transport rescue you rarely know what to expect and Ashley has shown that she can care for many types of dogs of varying temperaments. The most memorable was very anxious and mouthy beagle who was later put on Prozac to help with her temperament and behavior. Ashley fostered Tallulah until she was adopted to later be returned multiple times because people just couldn't deal with the challenge that Ashley was. If I had a personal dog i would not only trust Ashley with its care but not worry because I know she would do anything she could to assure it's comfort and care.”
