My dog Rosie, is a big, very strong and high energy Great Dane. Steve does a great job walking her, allowing her to explore and have fun while keeping her under safe control as well. Rosie loves her walks with Steve and even gets excited when she sees his car coming down our street ! Rosie and I will definitely be calling Steve again!

Thomas is wonderful and won over my very shy dog quickly, was accommodating and wonderfully pleasant to work with. You’d be very lucky to have him as your dog helper when in need.

Marli has been taking our dog on weekly walks for several months and she has house-sat for us on multiple occasions as well. She has been absolutely wonderful to work with since Day 1. She is quick to respond, always prompt, and most importantly, our dog really enjoys spending time with her. We have a large dog that has medical needs and she can sometimes be difficult when getting to know new people. Marli demonstrated tremendous patience and kindness with her and she was able to gain her trust as a result. We are incredibly grateful for that. We would HIGHLY recommend Marli to anyone looking for a kind, passionate, and highly communicative caretaker for their pet. Thanks Marli :)

About: I cared for my Bichon Frise, for 13 wonderful years. During that time, I also enjoyed walking my neighbors’ dogs alongside him, which gave me experience with different breeds, sizes, and personalities. Through all the walks, park visits, playtimes, and daily routines, I gained a deep understanding of what it takes to keep a pet happy, healthy, and loved. My best friend passed away in 2024, but I still find a little bit of him in every dog I take care of. I’m reliable, patient, and truly passionate about animals. Caring for pets brings me so much joy, and I always make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved, just like they’re my own. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! As of now I am very flexible with my schedule at the moment I am taking the time and going to enjoy traveling the world as much as I can and making a little extra money and getting to meet new pets would be a bonus for me ! I have done a couple drop in visits for friends & family pets and I always make sure to follow their instructions and never hesitate to ask when I don’t know something so everything goes smoothly as best as possible. I love animals I would always make sure they are cared for and kept safe at all times !

About: I used to walk around my dog a lot and my friend's dog as well. I normally follow the instructions of the owners, and I also try to bond with the dogs and play with them. I'm normally very patient. I always want to have a good relationship with the owners where they can trust me as much as I can trust them and to reassure that I always prefer to stay in contact with the owners to make sure the communication is flowing right. A bit of my background, I used to take care of my dog for over a year and then we had to send him to Indiana, his name was Boomer and he was a shiba inu. We sent him away due to the fact my parents had the fear his shedding fur could make my new born niece allergic. So to avoid that scenerio we sent him to Indiana. However, to this day i get updates about him and how much bigger he's gotten.

About: I started doing rover because of my own negative experiences with past pet care providers. I wanted to be the right pet sitter for pet owners so they can have peace of mind when they are away. I’ve had pets my entire life, and have such a deep love for animals of all kinds! I am currently working from home with a-lot of downtime during the day and am able to step out if need be at any point! my schedule is incredibly flexible I treat everyone’s pets as if they are my own! I have 2 cats whom I view as my children and care for them with an immense amount of love

About: I’ve grown up with many pets! Not just dogs, but cats, bunnies, Guinea pigs, etc. My friends, friends of friends, and family always trust me to tend to their pets, which is fun for me too! Recently, I fostered a small dog named Jeremy, which was perfect for a first time dog sitting (long term) in the city. I work remotely Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays and am obviously free on the weekends! I am also available after work to stop and take care of your pet as well! If I care for your pet in your home, i intend to always remain respectful or belongings and only go to get the job done. Happy to take pictures and update you while you are gone as well.
