Kyle was a very conscientious caregiver to our dog. He showed up twice a day (even in the rain) to walk our dog at my dad‘s house. He even went above and beyond by applying an antibiotic to her tail and putting the donut/tail guard on her every night. I strongly recommend Kyle to anyone needing thisservice.

Andrea has been a lifesaver for agreeing to walk our 3 yr old Australian Shepherd when our regular dog walker took an unexpected 1 month vacation out of the country. Andrea definitely has the 3 R’s (reliable, responsive & responsible)! We’ll be keeping her for as long as she is willing to have us as her client.

About: I've volunteered for colonial capital humane society, I have taken a Veterinary Technician class, and did my clinical hours at Jill's pet resort. So overall I have plenty of experience with animals because I also have lived with them. I am off all day Monday through Wednesday. Wednesday is up until 9 pm. And the rest of the week I'm off for the daytime till 9 pm. I will mostly try to take care of pets outside of my home. Such as walking or pet sitting for other people. Because there are enough animals in the house I live in

About: Hi! I am a lifelong dog owner with hands-on experience caring for high-energy breeds. I currently share my home with a Red Heeler and a Goldendoodle, both of whom require significant daily exercise, mental stimulation, and attention. This has given me strong skills in managing active dogs and creating structured, enriching routines. My professional background includes working as an EMT and now as a behavior technician, which has shaped my calm, attentive, and safety-first approach. I’m trained to stay level-headed in emergencies, read behavior cues, and provide patient, consistent care. I’m also an avid surfer, so I’m naturally active and love the outdoors. I’m using Rover as a side gig and I’m always open to long visits, overnight stays, and extended care. I genuinely love all animals and treat every pet like family. You can trust that your pet will receive unconditional love, reliable attention, and excellent care while with me. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule. I can fit your pet’s needs into my day and I’m happy to work around your schedule. I’m also available on weekends, plus open to long visits and overnight stays. I live in an apartment complex with a big fenced area for the dogs to play in. There is also trails by the apartment that I walk. Your pet will get care, and exercise all while having the time of their lives!!

About: I am the person you would describe as the "dog person" I take care of my own dogs like they were my children and I would treat your dog or cat the same. I crate trained my dogs, and I am constantly giving them toys to play with. I am currently in between jobs so I am available every day. If you want someone to watch your animals who will be responsible, caring, and thoughtful you should shoot me a message. I have been around dogs of all ages since I was little. My mother always had dogs and cats in my life, she would tell us that dogs should never be mistreated because they will love you and miss you no matter what you do. they deserve the same. As of right now I work part time doing my own cleaning business. I work around my schedule and set my own schedule, so your baby will always be my priority when you schedule with me! Don’t hesitate to ask me about house cleaning at the time of asking about pet care. If I have to host your baby at my house I do have a fenced in yard but I go on regular walks with any animal I watch so that they get enough exercise and potty breaks to keep them happy. I very diligent when dog sitting to give them the exercise and care that they need, you will never have to worry about your baby when they’re with me.

I have a fenced in courtyard a screened in porch and a garage where I can seperate animals should there be any that don't get along ! I usually only take one family at a time but, occasionally there’s an overlap! My personal pet is 16 years old , is blind and mostly deaf but I love her to death ! ( my beautiful girl passed away in January 2021) ! Please contact me if you have any special needs or any questions. I'm looking forward to caring for your pet and providing you with an alternative to housing your loved one in a kennel! Personal attention and a home environment is so much less stressful for your pet and for you! Hoping to meet your pet soon!! I am semi retired and my husband is retired so your pets will be well supervised and loved when in our home ! Pets are like people in my house! They can roam most of the house and sleep on furniture! I can also crate them if that makes them comfortable. I am flexible -I just ask that you give me an accurate time for drop off and pickup so I can plan my day ! I am sure to spoil your pup but will follow your requests for feeding/crating . My goal is to always make your dogs stay fun and stress free !

About: I treat every pet like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for in your absence. My focus is always on creating a stress- free experience for both pets and their owners. I’m currently working from home so, my schedule allows me to provide consistent care, whether that’s morning walks, evening visits, or overnight stays. I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and comfort while you’re away. Safety and trust are my top priorities. In your home, I follow your pets routine exactly as you outline - from feeding, walks, household rules - so we all feel comfortable and secure. If caring for your pets in my home, they’ll have a family of two cats and a dog plus my animal whisperer husband (and my step daughter july-august) to love on them. Clear communication is important to me so I’ll keep you updated with photos and notes so you know your pets are happy and well cared for.

Beth was amazing! Our fur baby instantly fell in love with her. She was prompt for every walk. After the second walk Bella was actually sitting by the window looking for her next visit, super cute :) She sent detailed information and pictures from each stroll. Highly recommend Beth for any petsitting needs.

Christine has been faithfully walking my girls twice a week for several months. She is reliable, kind and very attentive to my babies. My situation has changed and at this time I can no longer continue with ROVER. This is in no way a reflection of Christine. She has been like a God-mother to Shelby and Molly Shanna and they will miss her terribly.

About: With years of hands-on experience breeding dogs and training German Shepherds, I bring a deep understanding of canine behavior, structure, and care to every pet I watch. From high-energy working dogs to beloved family companions, I provide attentive, knowledgeable, and compassionate care tailored to each dog’s needs. Whether it’s structured exercise, basic reinforcement training, or just dependable companionship, your pet will be in experienced and caring hands. I have part time job that I work at occasionally, but my passion is caring for our furry friends! I have 3 of my own and always find my most joyful moments are spent loving on them. Caring for pets is all about meeting them in their comfort space and going from there. Each furry friend has their own boundaries and when caring for them, it is vital to get to know them and build a trusting relationship with them, based on their personality. A meet and greet is the best way I have found to start this relationship.
