About: Im a loving caring dog lover. Ive fostered dogs for about 8+ years now. If it was up to me id take all the dogs that need families into my home . I want to join this job because its flexible & i get to learn about different dogs and the way they act. Im good with dog training im very big on training with treats and learning how to eat in groups. The cuddles are the best when it comes to bed time. Im very active so im always at the park with my other dogs as well and backyard time mostly requires a pool . Pets are humans they need love equally and thats my motto. Lets get the fun started this summer for good runs and good excercise

“Maritza was an amazing sitter! She sent photos and updates every time she took care of our cats, Buddha and Gagoots. You can tell by the photos that they really liked her. She played with them and really cared for them from a Wednesday through Sunday! We will definitely use her again! Highly recommend her.”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was very young. I also have been dog grooming for 9 years and own a dog and 4 cats! I am available for drop in visits or dog walking after 6pm during the week or I can do all day on a Saturday. I am also available before 8am during the week. I have experience with handling dogs while working in a grooming salon. I have experience with high energy dogs as well as reactive dogs (towards people or other dogs).

About: To keep things calm and cozy, I only host one dog at a time, or up to two dogs from the same household. About Us: Hi! I’m excited to offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and boarding for dogs in a calm, cozy home environment. I’m (Chloe) the primary sitter, and my husband, Aaron, will help out and give your pets lots of love when he's around. We both grew up with dogs of all breeds and sizes, so we’re comfortable caring for dogs of any age, size, or personality. I also spent six years working as an office manager for a dog training franchise, giving me great insight into dog behavior. I truly enjoy bonding with dogs, whether it’s walking, playing, or giving extra love and cuddles. My goal is to make every dog feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Availability: I’m primarily available weekends (Saturday & Sunday), when I’m home to provide lots of attention, walks, and cuddles. I also offer limited weekday evening availability after 4 PM with advance notice, as I work full-time during the week. For boarding, Friday drop-offs after 4 PM work best. During school holidays and long weekends, I’m usually home and happy to offer a safe, cozy place for your dog while you’re out visiting family or traveling. These openings are reflected in my calendar. Services I Offer: Dog walks: 30-minute or 1-hour options Drop-in visits: feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks Boarding at my home Administering medication (oral/topical, excluding injections) Special care: pets with anxiety or other special needs Regular updates: photos and texts so you can relax while away Why Choose Me: If your dog enjoys: Calm, cozy surroundings Lots of love, cuddles, and attention Consistent routines, playtime, and the option for long walks in scenic areas (if owner prefers) I’d love to provide reliable, affectionate care while you’re away. My home is clean and well-maintained, so your dog will be safe, comfortable, and stress-free. I bring experience with dogs of all breeds and sizes and a genuine love for spending time with them, making sure every dog feels happy, cared for, and part of the family. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to discuss your dog’s specific needs. I’m primarily available weekends (Saturday & Sunday, 8 AM–5 PM), when I’m home to provide lots of attention, walks, and cuddles. I also offer limited weekday evening availability after 4 PM with advance notice, as I work full-time during the week. For boarding, Friday drop-offs after 4 PM work best. During school holidays and long weekends, I’m usually home and happy to offer a safe, cozy place for your dog while you’re out visiting family or traveling. Please note I only host one dog at a time, or up to two dogs from the same household. When caring for pets, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and specific needs (medication, feeding, anxiety triggers) and follow any instructions to maintain a consistent environment. On walks, I use a secure leash, follow your preferred route, and stay mindful of traffic, other animals, and surroundings to make it safe and enjoyable. In your home, I treat your space with respect, keep it tidy, and provide regular updates with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. Your dog’s well-being is my top priority, and I strive to offer them love and care as if they were my own.

“Claire has been so wonderful with my dogs during her recurring drop in visits. One of my dogs is very shy and takes a bit to warm up, but Claire won her over so quickly! I feel very comfortable and at ease when Claire drops in to check on and play with my dogs. They are well taken care of in her hands! She always sends updates and pictures to me so i know they’re having a great time. Thank you Claire for everything! I am so appreciative of you coming every week!”

Kendall J.

“She did a great job. I enjoyed her updates which provided detailed information and included lots of pictures. She also obviously went out of her way to play with the cats who needed more stimulation, and snuggled the others who just wanted attention.”

About: Animals are basically part of my DNA. I’ve been walking dogs and pet sitting since I was a child, and I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, and other animals. I’ve also been riding and caring for horses my entire life, which means I’m very comfortable with responsibility, routines, and understanding animal behavior. I have hands-on experience with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from energetic dogs who love long walks and playtime to seniors who need a calmer pace and extra TLC. I’m great at reading animal cues, keeping routines consistent, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I truly treat every pet as if they were my own. I work from home, so pets are never left alone and are part of my daily routine. My home sits on 3 acres of private property surrounded by a state park, which means lots of space for play and long walks or hikes. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I care for pets by treating them like part of the family, whether they’re in my home or theirs. I stick closely to each pet’s usual routine—including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest—so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure dogs get plenty of supervised exercise, enrichment, and attention throughout the day. I’m attentive to individual needs, whether that means extra activity for high-energy dogs, gentle care for seniors, or patience and consistency with puppies. I also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Crystal was wonderful with drop-in visits for my two cats. She was great about communicating and the cats loved her. I came home to a full water and food bowl, clean litter box, and the trash was even taken out. I will use her again and 100% recommend her to other!”

“Excellent caretaker! I had no worries while on vacation. Laura was extremely communicative and followed every instruction. Couldn’t be happier :)”

About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life. I have watched all kind of pets for friends, family, and clients. Even a few lizards and hamsters! All ages are welcome from seniors (medicine included) to littles. I work full time and my husband (my pet loving partner) is home in the AM hours. We are a team of pet care. I am available to do walks in the mornings and evenings. If you pet needs a mid-day check in, my husband would LOVE to spoil your pet with attention. My home is pet friendly. We don't have a gated yard, but we love to walk and are active hikers too. In your home, I am respectful of your house and will follow any instructions you have.

“Jenna was a great choice for our first time trying Rover! She cared for our cat like it was her own. She communicated well and checked in often. Would definitely book again!”

About: I have extensive experience caring for both cats and dogs, ensuring their safety, comfort, and happiness at all times. What sets me apart from other sitters is my attention to detail, patience, and genuine love for animals. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, so I take the time to follow specific routines, dietary requirements, and any special instructions you provide. In addition to general care, I have skills in administering oral medications, handling anxious pets, and reinforcing basic commands for dogs. I’m also experienced in recognizing signs of stress or illness, which allows me to respond quickly if a situation arises. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or giving attention, I make sure pets feel loved and secure while their owners are away. My goal is to provide the same level of care and affection they would receive from you. Pet care is an important and enjoyable part of my day! I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for, making sure they get their walks, meals, and attention right on time. Spending time with animals is something I look forward to, so I always make sure they have the care and love they need every single day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my first priority. When I’m in your home, I follow your instructions carefully and make sure everything is secure and pet-friendly. I give your pets plenty of love and attention so they feel happy and stress-free while your away. If I care for them in my home, they’Ll have a clean cozy space with fresh water, a comfortable resting area, a big fenced in backyard, and lots of playtime. I always make sure pets feel safe, loved and well cared for in any environment.
