Tracy is the best! We are new to the area and he was kind of enough to stop by before the scheduled visit to say hello and to meet the dogs. They absolutely loved him and his communication was great!

Absolutely wonderful all around! Paris is incredibly thorough and undeniably sweet. She truly cares for your fur babies, and goes the extra mile to get to know them and make them comfortable. She left detailed updates with every visit with several pictures. She watered my plants, swept my floor, and left everything neat and tidy when she was done. Extremely grateful for to find her <3 Thanks for everything, Paris!

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs and cats for friends and family over the years. Along with my own two girls, a senior dog and a senior cat. I have a huge heart for animals and love them so much!! Would love to meet your furry friend Currently working part time during the week days. Would be able to check in / walk your buddy for you before work (9am) , on break around (12pm), or after work (4pm). Weekends fluctuate but will be available either in the morning or evening I treat every pet I meet like they’re my own. I will bring comfort and relief to your buddy whenever you need! I love spending time outside; throwing a ball, going on a run.

Highly recommend! Upon reading the report card from Tonie, a comment was made from another dog owner, "Wow, you got a good rover." I was so nervous leaving my dogs, especially my ailing senior. When my normal dogsitter cancelled last minute, I was very hesitant having a stranger watch my dogs. Tonie did a great job. I actually prefer her over my other sitters.

About: I have a lot of experience with animals, including previous house-sitting experience and working at zoos. I love being able to spend time with pets and give them love and care while their families are busy or out of town! I currently have full availability and can fully adapt to your schedule. I can do at home care, including overnights, drop in visits, or walks whenever needed! I live in a single-bedroom apartment, so I would only feel comfortable providing care in my home for cats. I have lots of experience working with animals both professionally and for friends and family. I love being able to care for pets at their comfort level with new people and find so much joy in being able to fit into your pets lives!

About: I’ve had pets all my life. From lizards, to birds, cats and dogs, you name it. For the last 3 years I have been pet sitting for friends, neighbors, coworkers, and friends of friends as an in house sitter. I am currently working full time, however, my work life is very flexible with flexible hours. I can do middle of the day check ins if that is what you would prefer with no problem. I do spend a lot of time with the pets late afternoons to late evenings if I am not staying in the residence. When caring for pets in your home, I encourage a very detailed day to day that your pet has so I do not break from that routine for them as much as possible. It’s my hope for you and your pet to feel as safe and comfortable as possible. No needs or routine is too inconsiderate for me.

About: Hello! I am new here at Rover. I’ve had dogs and cats all throughout my life. When I was a kid, I rehabilitated hurt animals that I found outside or on the road-caring is second nature for me. In 2018 I adopted my dog Beauty, a black mastiff whom I had for almost eight years and sadly, she recently passed away. She is missed by many!!! So I am here trying to get my pet fill. I will always provide great care for your pets. I can’t wait to get started and meet your pets! Monday through Thursday I am available 730pm-midnight. I am available Friday and Saturday 9 am until 330 P.M. Sunday I am mostly unavailable. May have some wiggle room in the late morning. While caring for your pet, I will be sure to always keep an eye on them. I am very attentive and follow your instruction and wishes. I respect you as well as your pets needs.

Amara was amazing! Even got my reclusive cat Soeren to come out for treats. Lily, of course, was her usual extroverted self and came out for lovies. So sad we only got to try her services once, but we will definitely recommend her to friends.

About: I have a dog of my own and understand the responsibility that comes with taking care of your pet. I’ve always had many of pets throughout my life and would love to add your pet to my extended family. I am looking forward to showing your pet the love and attention that all humans and pets need. I live an active lifestyle so I am always out and about taking my dog on a walk. Whether it’s morning, afternoon, or night I will be walking with my pupper and would love for your pet to come along for the ride. I am a frequent attendee at the dog parks and as long as your dog is vaccinated I’m sure they would have a grand time there as well. I can feed, walk, run, and even pick up your dogs poop. I understand the responsibility that comes with pet care as I have a dog of my own who I’ve raised since he was a wee pup. I am able to work with pets of all sizes as many of my friends and family have had me watch their pets while they were away.

About: I’ve taken care of neighbors’ dogs since I was a kid. I have worked with anxious older dogs, puppies and high energy breeds. I am also comfortable giving medication. I’m a runner who loves the outdoors so a walk or run with your dogs sounds like a great summer day. I’m currently working part time so I will have lots of time to play with your pets! I’m a runner and love everything outside so a walk or run with your dog sounds like a great way to spend my afternoons! I don’t have any other pets at home. I don’t have a fenced in yard but can keep them on a long leash if that is necessary. I only work for a few hours a day so your dog will spend most of it’s time with me.

Paris was absolutely amazing with our sweet toasted marshmallow, Soleil, while we were out of town! 🐾✨ From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease, and she went above and beyond in every way possible. She made sure Soleil was safe, loved, comfortable, and cared for like she was her own kitty. Paris kept us updated, paid close attention to her needs, and gave us such peace of mind during our trip. Knowing our girl was in such kind and capable hands allowed us to truly relax and enjoy ourselves without worrying. It’s obvious she genuinely loves animals and treats them with so much patience and compassion. We came home to a happy, well-loved little marshmallow, and we are so incredibly grateful. We would trust Paris again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, thoughtful, and truly exceptional to care for their pets. Thank you, Paris, for loving our girl so well! 💕

100% recommend Jennifer. We have a very nervous 50 pound Bernie doodle that likes to bark ferociously at strangers, but Jennifer was able to calm her down even though she was the first person to ever enter our house when we weren’t home and let the dogs out! She made sure they had sufficient time outside and even walk the yard with them. She brought them to their water and food bowls, and encouraged them to eat and drink. Then sat with them on the floor and gave them both individual attention. We are honestly overjoyed with the care that she provided and we will use her again, so should you!
