About: I have raised two Australian Shepards myself. I have taught both of them all the basic commands myself. I am very patient and understanding. I just love being around animals as much as possible. I will give your pet plenty of attention including playing and exercising your pet. I am currently taking classes online so I am open nearly every day to take care of your pet. I am very flexible and have my own reliable vehicle to get to where I need to. I may currently be a little higher than other, but I will actually stay night and day to take care of your dogs. Not just to show up let them out and feed them In my home my pets are completely spoiled. My Aussie is always by my side including sleeping at the foot of my bed. My dog gets daily exercise. I am perfectly fine with treating your pet like my own or setting boundaries if you do not allow your pet on furniture. I also have experience with caring for horses. So I have no problem dealing with large dogs

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 8 years and have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. I recently lost my own dog after 8 wonderful years together, so I truly understand how important it is to trust someone caring for your pet. I’ve dog sat for multiple families and am comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, administering medications, potty training, feeding routines, walks, playtime, and giving pets lots of love and attention while their owners are away. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely love being around animals. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re part of my own family. I’m currently a nursing student, so my schedule can vary slightly week to week, but I do my best to stay flexible and communicate clearly with pet owners. I’m available for walks, pet sitting, and check-ins throughout the week whenever my schedule allows. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely love spending time with animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for pets. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I’m experienced with administering medications, caring for senior dogs, and handling puppies that may need extra patience or potty training support. I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, plenty of attention, and safe walks and playtime. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pet, and I’ll always treat them with the same love and care I would want for my own animals.

About: I have had pets all my life. Mainly dogs. I have trained some of my personal pets in the past. I also love seeing animals personalities, and learning to work with them from there. I work 8a-4p Tuesday - Friday, and some Mondays (same hours). I never work weekends or evenings. I have an hour for lunch on the days I work, so I am able to run by for a potty break if needed. I have a big fenced in backyard just waiting for your dog to come roam! I do not currently have any pets, so I do not have a cage, water bowl, leash, etc. I live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for walks.

About: I have had animals since I was born, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and hamsters, and loved every single one! I have experience watching neighbors and friends' pets since middle school and I am a college student now. I did a clinical internship at a vet and I am well versed in animal care. Whether that means walking, bathing, medicine administration, grooming, or just cuddles, I'm your girl! :) I have a part time serving job this summer and will be back to being a full time student in the fall. My part time job is very flexible and allows me ample time to check up/watch your pet. I will update my schedule every 2 weeks. I have cared for lots of animals and am able to crate your animal or put them away safely as needed. I also have lots of animal equipment (leashes, crates) on hand if there is any need to transport your pet.

Our pets are like family, and trusting someone else with their care can be a big decision. While traveling earlier this year, someone recommended Rover.com for my dogs. I decided to take a chance and met with Eric in person about two weeks before my vacation. My dogs loved him instantly! That visit eased all of my concerns about their care. Eric was always during the time I requested. Promptly feeding/caring for my dogs demonstrates his commitment to their care and well-being. I'm a big fan of the visit report card and photos! Thank you Eric for taking care of my babies! You've made several new friends!

Attentive, thorough, communicative, professional, and caring!!!! Bethany is a natural. She clearly loves animals and cared for our two older girls like they were her own. We’d love to have her care for them again next time we’re out of town.

This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! Gidget is a very caring and conscientious person with great communication skills. She not only took amazing care of my two cats, Bristol and Luna, but she did it during a winter storm which caused my house to lose water for two days. I had told her that my girls were extremely shy, and that she might never see them, but Gidget was determined to win them over. I was very impressed by the amount of progress she made with them in just a short period of time. When I need someone to take care of my girls in the future, Gidget will definitely be the first sitter I contact.

About: I have hands-on experience from interning at a veterinarian clinic and working for a year with a local pet care company similar to Rover. As a pet owner myself (two labs and a tabby cat!), I know how to handle walks, feeding, bathing, medications, and more. Your pet will be in caring and capable hands! 🐾🫶🏼 Between classes and work, Tuesdays, and weekends work best for me! Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday I am pretty busy, but am able to do early mornings and evenings those days! I provide attentive, personalized care by ensuring pets are fed, walked, and given plenty of affection. I follow routines, administer medications if needed, and maintain a safe, comfortable environment in both my home and clients’ homes.

About: I look forward to meeting and loving your fur babies! I’ve had pets my whole life and currently have a cat and dog of my own. I’m also a special needs parent, so patience, compassion, and attentiveness are second nature to me. Pet sitting helps me support my daughter’s therapies and additional needs, which makes this work especially meaningful to me. It takes a village, and I can’t wait to be a part of yours 🐾🩶 I’m able to come walk your pets or check in on them before work then play with them after work (5:30p-9p) throughout the week. And Saturday and Sundays I’m fully available/flexible! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving environment with plenty of supervision, patience, playtime, and cuddles. I always follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any routines that help your pet feel secure and at home. I understand every animal has different needs and personalities, and I’ll care for them like they’re part of my own family 🐾

About: What sets me apart is the personal care and attention I give every pet. I take time to learn each animal’s personality, routine, and needs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I own a small business so I am able to make my own schedule if it’s at least a month out. If I do have events then I’ll be gone 4-6 hours max. Other than that I will try to be with your animals as much as possible. Every pet in my care is treated like family, with constant attention to their comfort and well-being. I create a safe, loving space where pets can relax, play, and feel at home while you’re away.

About: In addition to having dogs of various breeds for the majority of my life, I have been dogsitting for the last two years. I am also experienced with dogs of all ages and breeds as a result of working in dog daycare facilities and in grooming salons across the last three years. I also volunteer with the animal shelter in the area, so I know how important it is to meet dogs where they're at. I currently spend about one day a week volunteering with the local animal shelter, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I look forward to spending my time with your pets! I currently have two cats of my own, so I am unfortunately unable to bring any more pets into my own home. However, I am happy to enforce your pet's existing routine within the comfort of their home.

About: I have lived with dogs my entire life! And I now have had lots of experience watching other people’s dogs as well! I can’t wait to take care of your pup! I have availability throughout the whole week currently. But that is subject to change. I like to spend my off days outside going for walks and enjoying the weather when it’s nice. I like to listen to the clients instructions because every household and every dog is different and has different needs so making sure I follow their rules is the most important thing.

About: I grew up on a farm with cows, chickens, and lots of barn cats and dogs! I’ve been a big animal person my whole life which inspired me to go into veterinary medicine in my adult life. I have been in vet med for almost 4 years now, however I am currently not working in it because i’m looking to explore other jobs for myself at the moment. I still would love to have animals in my life while I explore my options and I think Rover is the perfect place for me to do that! Lots of care experience since I have watched some patients for 24+ hours. I can also administer any kind of medication that your fur baby needs while you’re away! I’m currently not working full shifts so I have a ton of availability. I’m hoping for Rover to be a summer gig for me for a while and I can be there when and wherever you need me! I’m currently living with my Mother who has 2 dogs and 2 cats and my own loving cat as well in the household. She is not home super often so I definitely tend to the animals and of course my own sweet girl! I could sit outside all day so potty breaks and walks are a breeze and me and your kiddos can stay outside as long as they want. I’m happy to clean out litter boxes and crates as well.

About: Hello! I have experience dog-sitting a variety of breeds, ranging from very social dogs to those that are more reactive. I am comfortable with dogs that bark, as I understand they can be quite different. One of my own dogs has severe anxiety, so I am familiar with how to manage such situations. Both of my current dogs are large, so I am comfortable caring for dogs of any size. My goal is to ensure the animals feel loved and cared for, so that their owners can have complete peace of mind. I am currently employed full-time, but I have all of my evenings available and am passionate about animals and providing them with the best possible care. I understand when and how to use crates if necessary. I am also familiar with engaging with them through toys and activities! I will make sure they get the proper care.

Sarah did a great job with my cats! Not only did she feed and take care of the litter, but she also was helpful with collecting my packages and mail for me while I was away. She also takes great photos of your pet while she is watching them!
