About: Growing up on a ranch, I always loved animals and helped care for many. From fluffy mammals to slithery reptiles and even some amphibious friends, I've always had animals in my life. I'm no stranger to big dogs either, and right now, my world revolves around my sweet senior toy poodle, Marshmallow. Basically, if it has paws, scales, or fins, I've probably hung out with it, and I can't wait to hang out with your pet too! My extensive hands-on experience has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior and needs, ensuring your beloved pet receives the best possible care. I’m currently working part time as an ABA Behavioral Therapist, so I’m quite open to a variety of times and dates that will fit best for your schedule! When I care for your pets in your home, I make sure they stick to their usual routine as much as possible. This means feeding them on schedule, giving them their meds if needed, and making sure they get plenty of potty breaks and exercise. I'll play with them, offer lots of cuddles, and send you regular updates and photos so you can see how happy and comfortable they are. I treat your home with respect and leave it just as I found it, making sure your furry friends feel safe and loved while you're away.

“Loved being able to meet her before hand! She made our first time using Rover seamless! She sent us plenty of pictures of them which always makes leaving the kitties much easier!!”

“Basilia just cared for my cat Luna while I was away on vacation and she did a fantastic job. I loved the photos and the notecard updates. She even brought a laser pointer over to play when I informed her the batteries in mine had run out the day before I was set to leave. I would recommend her great care and look forward to booking her again in the future.”

About: With over 15 years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals, I bring a wealth of knowledge and passion to every pet I meet. From cats and dogs to small mammals, birds, reptiles and even aquatic friends, I understand the unique needs and personalities of different species, ensuring they receive the specialized care and attention they deserve. Until recently, I worked with a local animal rescue and it provided me with invaluable experience in animal welfare and behavior. I have honed my skills in feeding, administering medications, handling, and creating environments that promote comfort and well-being. Whether it's recognizing subtle signs of illness, engaging pets in stimulating activities, or simply offering companionship, I strive to make every animal feel safe and loved. Caring for animals is more than a job to me—it's a lifelong commitment and passion. I excel at maintaining routines, reducing stress, and providing affection tailored to each pet's personality. Whether your furry, feathered, or finned companion needs playtime, a soothing presence, or diligent care while you're away, I am dedicated to ensuring their happiness and health. Let me bring my extensive experience and genuine love for animals to your home, offering peace of mind that your beloved pets are in compassionate and capable hands. I have made this my career. While my schedule can vary with personal appointments, I ensure that your family’s pets always remain my top priority. Although I’m unable to host pets in my home, I’m more than happy to travel to yours! Pets often cope better with their human’s absence when they stay in the comfort and familiarity of their own environment with regular routines. That being said, if you want me to stay with them overnight or if you want me to just drop in and check on them, I'm flexible!

About: I have never known a life without at least 2 dogs around the house, and also a few cats. I’ve grown up with mastiffs, pitbulls, chihuahuas, chow chows, golden retrievers, stray rescued dogs, injured/sick dogs, puppies, elderly dogs, basically all you could name! I have also walked and cared for many dogs of friends and family and I love meeting new furry faces! Every dog has their own special routine and I am dedicated to make sure that is followed thoroughly. I genuinely care for animals as if they are humans and they should be loved as such :). As a college student home for the summer, I want to schedule as many walks as possible! My schedule is very open past 11am when I typically am done with my workouts :). I am willing to schedule other things around walks and home visits. I believe that it is important to nail down routines for each specific pet. Feeding, walking, and playing should be a part of every animals daily routine! When trusted in a clients home, I believe that it is essential to be respectful of the space and leave the area even better than I found it. I care for your space as much as I care for your loved pets!

About: I've taken care of my own dog for 7 years now. I walk a dog for a woman and we communicate frequently about her wants and needs for her dog. I also have experience in professional cooking and cleaning so I often help her with things in her home such as refilling dog food, bringing in trash cans, and making her bed. I am a current Westmont student. With an appreciation for open communication and understanding for unexpected schedule changes. I work with and understand any client schedules and their needs for flexibility as well. I frequently bathe, feed, and walk my own dog. As well as the other dogs that I walk. Making sure they are their happiest and healthiest. Making any adjustments to diets or walk times that are needed.

About: I have owned two large dogs before a German Shepard, and a lab Shepard mix . I also understand that some dogs are energetic and need more exercise so I am patient with those doggos too! I am also attentive to their health and body language and I will communicate with you whether I notice anything concerning. I work full time from 8-5pm Mon-Friday. I am available early mornings before 7am or after 5pm on the weekdays and any time on the weekends. I cannot board dogs or cats however I am more than happy to watch them in their home! I will also be attentive to specific care instructions for your pets.

About: Hi there! I’m Karolyn, and I’m new to Rover but not new to caring for dogs. I’ve walked and cared for pups of all sizes for friends and family, and I truly love spending time with them. Whether your dog is high-energy or more laid-back, I’ll make sure they get the attention, care, and exercise they need. I’m reliable, communicative, and always happy to follow your pet’s routine. I’d love the chance to meet your furry friend! I work a full-time job from 8 to 5, but I’m available for evening and weekend walks or drop-in visits. Caring for pets is something I love, so I make time for it outside of work. Whether it’s a relaxing evening stroll or weekend playtime, I’m happy to be part of your dog’s routine and give them the attention they deserve. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their specific routines, feeding schedules, and any special instructions to keep pets comfortable and happy.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I have a natural knack for connecting with them. I grew up with dogs, cats, the occasional rodent and I have previously pet-sit and dog walked for friends. I have had pets of all ages and am comfortable administering meds if needed. I have a very open and flexible schedule, though I occasionally teach scuba diving on the weekends. Because my hours vary, please check my Rover calendar to confirm availability. Because I provide care directly in your home and neighborhood, your pet's safety and the security of your home are my top priorities. • Home & Leash Safety: I always double-check that doors, windows, and gates are securely locked when entering or leaving your home. When we are out on a walk, your dog will remain securely leashed at all times, and I maintain a high awareness of our surroundings to avoid any stressful interactions with other animals or traffic. • Constant Communication: I provide regular, detailed updates with photos from our walks or drop-in visits so you always know exactly how your pet is doing. • Emergency Preparedness: Before our first booking, we will complete a Meet & Greet to review your pet’s exact routine. I will ask for your primary vet's details, emergency contacts, and clear instructions for your pet’s specific medication schedules if required.

About: I bring almost a decade of pet care across several different professional facilities. Whether a puppy, unruly, shy, or elderly I've dealt with it all! I've managed chaotic play yards but I love forming strong one-on-one bonds with all furry creatures- I was many a pup's favorite in the yards, especially the ones who were less confident. I am currently open and flexible in order to accomdate a variety of client schedules. Whether you need a regular walker or weekend drop ins I'm your girl! The safety and well being of your dog is always my priority! I have my own rescue dog who came with a few behavioral quirks and have worked with him extensivley to be an upstanding citizen as well as manage his behaviors in general.

“Kelsey did a great job taking care of our cat ?”

About: My motto is that it’s my responsibility to make sure that each dog under my care is HAPPY and SAFE. Every day that I’m with your pup , I keep that motto at the forefront of my mind. I know how important dogs are to our lives, so it’s my duty to make sure that your pup gets to experience the same kind of love and care that they’re used to at home . I’m a huge dog lover, so making pups as happy as can just come second nature for me ! Although I’ve been a lifelong dog lover, my experience with pups is much more far reaching than that. I’ve worked with dogs big and small and loved taken care of all of them equally It’s always great to chat with owners about what makes their pup tick ! Finally , I just love meeting new dogs! I like to get down on their level show them that I’m a welcome presence here to make friends, and I’m sure we’ll be best buddies in no time at all

“Excellent care! Would highly recommend Damian. We have a boxer with degenerative myopathy who struggles with her back end. He did drop in visits helping her with potty breaks and keeping her company. She got comfortable with him pretty quick and he did a wonderful job. He even helped out when our stay at home person had a medical emergency. I felt like I had someone I could trust while we were away.”

“Ashleigh was a great communicator and although we will never be able to know exactly how she was with the dogs, they were happy when we came back and seemed content. I will book her again. Thank you, Ashleigh!”
