“Kelly was great with my dog Brandy. Always on-time for appointments. Brandy would sit by a window waiting for Kelly to arrive, so I know Brandy enjoyed spending time with Kelly. I highly recommend Kelly for anyone needing a dog walker.”

“Kayla was a life saver for me this past week! I typically work from home but was traveling for work - so Kayla came over during the workdays to take Barley for a walk. She was flexible, responsive, and loving towards my two-year-old golden. She even offered to bring Barley a raincoat when it was raining one day the days! I will definitely be using Kayla again on my next work trip!”

About: I have been a dog / cat sitter for my friends, family and neighbors since I was 13. My family had both dogs and cats in the house when I was growing up. I love spending time with animals and getting to know their unique personalities. I especially enjoy taking dogs for walks and playing with them outside to help expend their energy. I currently work from home in a corporate position. I have plenty of free time and would love to spend some of it taking care of animals. Typically, I am staying over at the client’s home for the duration of their trip / vacation. The client will often have me over to their home prior to their departure to meet the animal(s) and go over their needs and any other special requests they may have. It is very important to me that the client feels safe entrusting me to stay in their home and take care of their pets.

“Cherie was amazing while caring for/walking my dear Abuelo. He has since transitioned above. Cherie accommodated my crazy work schedule which was a huge help! Always a great communicator & updated me when needed. Cherie will always be considered a member of Abuelos Village who cared for him. Thankful we met. Blessing to all the future fur babies 🐾”

“You can tell that Steven loves dogs, and loves walking them. Every time he returns my dog, he mentions something great that happened on a walk, whether it's a new trail he's discovered or seeing a deer. He's professional usually walks longer than 30 minutes. My dog can't wait to see him.”

About: Hello👋🏽I’m a passionate dog lover and pet stylist at a doggie daycare, with 6+ years of experience leading playgroups and 3 years as a professional groomer. I’ve developed a deep understanding of dog behavior, body language, and individual needs.🐾 I currently have the sweetest babies, a 12 year old lab and 2 laid back cats. I grew up caring for our rescued beagles from an animal testing facility, which taught me how to support sensitive or nervous pups with patience and compassion. Through daycare and grooming, I’ve worked hands-on with all kinds of breeds, coat types, and personalities. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend and help them feel safe, happy, and loved! I also offer nail trims if your pup is comfortable with it.✂️ I also enjoy cleaning in my spare time, so I’d be happy to offer light housekeeping or general tidying if that’s something you’d find helpful.🫧 Pet care fits into my routine really naturally. I work as a groomer and often have shorter days starting at 8am, usually finishing around 2 or 3 PM, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet sitting in the evenings. I’m also available most weekends for drop-ins and walks. I typically pet sit in the owner’s home, where pets feel most comfortable and secure. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely—every pet is different, and I do my best to stick to their usual routine, whether that’s feeding times, walks, play, medications, or just extra snuggles. I’m respectful of your home and treat it with care, just like I do with your pets!

About: Hi! I’m Steph — a full-time pet caregiver through Rover and the heart behind a growing pet photography business. Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13 and have experience with all kinds of animals, from high-energy pups to quiet companions. I share my life with my dog Scooby, who’s a big lovebug and gets along great with both people and other animals, and two leopard geckos, Helios and Haku, who each have their own little quirks and charm. Over the years, I’ve worked closely with dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I also have hands-on experience with pet nutrition and wellness—I've worked with a variety of healthy foods, natural supplements, and holistic care routines. I’m great at picking up on subtle signs when something’s off and take pet health seriously. Whether we’re playing fetch, going for a walk, or just snuggling on the couch, I’m all about creating a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe and cared for. I tailor my care to each animal’s unique personality and needs, and I always follow your instructions to a T—because your peace of mind matters just as much as your pet’s happiness. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels loved, understood, and completely at ease while you’re away. I am very flexible with my schedule so please feel free to send me a request or a direct message to sent up an appointment! I have worked with certified fear free trainers as well as being a groomer for 3 years now I am very aware of animal body language and how to meet their needs so they feel safe in their environment. I do have a dachshund mix named Scooby that is incredibly friendly with Small to XL dogs. She’s always up for having a play date!

“Jeff was fantastic with my pets. He made sure to tend to every detail and took my dog on long walks. My cat requires daily medication, and Jeff made sure to take care of her medical needs every day. He made me feel very comfortable leaving my dog and cat in his care. I will definitely reach out to Jeff again for my pet care needs!”

About: I have worked in numerous dog kennels over the years. I've trained and cared for my own dog since he was a puppy. I care for all pets and I am a very calm presence. I graduated from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln with my degree in Animal Science. I currently reside in Minnetonka, MN. I offer dog walking (and running if needed), drop-ins, and house stays! I have a full-time job. I am available weekends and most days of the week at any time that works for you. My calendar will be updated regularly according to my work schedule. Reach out if you need my services! I like to keeps dogs active and stimulated while they play. I also have trained my own dog.

“She is amazing with our two dogs. You can tell she really cares for the animals she walks. She is always flexible and understanding with schedule changes. Our dogs loved her even though they’re usually very skeptical of new people and I would highly recommend her for any services for your pups!”

About: I've lived on a homestead taking care of farm animals including dogs, cats, goats, horses, chickens, and much more! My parents bred and trained AKC Labradors and Beagles for wild game hunting. I became a farm hand for a local barn in New Hampshire at the age of 14. Once I was 16 I started overnight caretaking for horses, dogs, and cats. I have experience training puppies and rescue dogs with my parents. I also own amphibians and non conventional pets so I'm familiar with exotic caretaking. I'm currently dog sitting/walking/feedings fulltime. I'll have plenty of time during the day to play with your pets and take them outside for potty breaks. I live in apartment that does not allow cats or dogs so any pet sitting will have to be done at your home. I have my own private insurance alongside Rover Garantee. I will need a full tour of your yard if it's fenced, to make sure there aren't any means of escaping. A full detailed care sheet that includes the pet's schedule, behavioral concerns (a must), vitamins or medications schedule, prefered place to walk or run (typical place you go to help understand your pet's public behavior and help form trust with them. I will always learn your pet's behavior in a controlled and comfortable environment first. Then if you approve, we can eventually go on hikes. The more detail I have about your pet, the better their transition will be in my care. Trust and Safety is my top priority when caring for a family member that can't speak.

“Yuri was fantastic! He was reliable, friendly, and a really good dog person. I would definitely ask him to be Freddie's dogwalker again. Freddie was very happy with him, too!😊”

“Dave is a very compassionate and gentle caretaker for my dog. I have a nervous dog, and he was very patient and understanding, offering treats and pets. I would highly recommend him!”

About: My pet experience ranges from helping raising our 3 Rottweiler puppies growing up, to cats, guinea pigs, hermit crabs and more! Now with years of experience under my belt, I can proudly say I’ve helped with senior cats and dogs, all the way down to a 6 month old Chow Chow puppy! With training a rescue puppy of my own, you can garuntee your pet will be in safe hands! I’m currently working part time, and can block off my schedule as needed when I’m not seeing clients, so I’ll have plenty of time to give your pets some love! I very easily and thoroughly follow directions, with great attention to detail. This way, your pet can feel right at home, even while you’re away. If your pup loves dog friends, I have a 1 year old Shih Tzu mix who can hang with us :) Otherwise, I will give your pet all the one on one love they need!

“AJ was wonderful with Leia! She was so kind and caring, and when Leia got tired during their walk, AJ went above and beyond by carrying her part of the way home. We really appreciate her taking the extra time and effort to make sure Leia was comfortable and got home safely. It’s clear that AJ genuinely cares about the dogs she’s walking. We would absolutely recommend her and would happily have her walk Leia again!”

About: I have been caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, and small rodents of my own and others for most of my life! I’m currently mom to a Great Dane rescue named Paloma and a rabbit rescue named Pluto. My partner and I have done extensive training with Paloma over the last two years to remove all dog reactivity and allow her to be off-leash trained. I also have experience with elderly animals receiving hospice care as they head over the rainbow bridge. I currently work as a part time structural engineer technician from home so I have lots of flexibility in my schedule to look after your little buds. My partner, Grant, is a structural engineer who also works from home. We both grew up surrounded by animals and wouldn’t have it any other way! I strongly believe that a tired dog is a happy dog! Long walks are a must for our pups to receive the attention and exercise they need and I truly believe nature is as healing to our furry family as it is to us.
