“Jacob has watched my senior dog multiple times. He is very kind and quick to respond. He is always sends good pic so I know my old man is getting well cared for. Will always try to rebook him for my dog”


“Samantha did a great job checking in on our cat, Louie. On a previous vacation, he came to a cat with a UTI because the person we hired (not through Rover.com) did not clean his box properly. Samantha kept us up to date on how Louie was doing and kept his boxes clean. We came home from vacation to a happy and healthy cat. I will definitely use Samantha again!”


About: As an animal person since birth I work hard to understand the specific needs and wants of each animal family member. I have worked with a wide variety of animals my whole life, in vet clinics, animal rehabs, farms, and homes. I can provide walks, hikes, senior care, interactive play time, personal attention, socialization, and general bathing and maintenance. I am incredibly intuitive and patient and pride myself in providing unique adaptive care to each pet. No pet is too big or small; too young or old! I care for all species as well. (dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, etc.) All animals deserve love and care! My work schedule is currently very flexible so most days are available at any time. I make sure to keep my calendar up to date. The safety of your pet is number one. I am more then happy to put in time to build trust with your pet. I even have a very patient dog of my own who can provide a friend to your dog or cat and help with socializing young or nervous animals. I not only care for your pet but your home. Any mess made by me or your pet I make sure to clean!

About: I'm a dog trainer, AKC evaluator, and Red Cross‑certified in dog & cat first aid. With over two years at a pet store and experience as a professional bather, I know animals inside and out. Drop-in visits include a 30–45 min walk or play session, a quick training tip, and of course all the love I have to give. I specialize in puppies (potty training), reactive dogs, and teaching positive reinforcement. Your pup will get skilled, safe, and high quality care—just like family. I work as a dog trainer and make my own schedule, so everything is very flexible. I typically don’t work Sundays and teach group classes Wednesday evenings and Saturdays between 10-2pm. Other than that and the sporadic private lessons, my schedule is pretty open. Because I’m a dog trainer I know all the ins and outs of dog behavior and how to act accordingly. My broad knowledge from working at a pet store also gives me insight on things like diet, proper living conditions, care, and administering medication. I’m also cat and dog first aid certified through the American Red Cross.

About: I can walk your pet, bathe your pet if needed, and also pet sit if you want me to. Just ask me, the worst I can do is say no. I am available to do pet care whenever you need me to if I have some type of notice to do so. Thank you so much. I make sure that all my animals have what they need at all times, as well as my clients pets, if they need/want it they will have it.

About: I’ve had animals in my life from the beginning. Right now I have 2 dogs, a cat, 2 Guinea pigs, and a fish :) I love caring for them and want to get back into walking, so this is perfect! I stay overnight to dog sit, so I have tons of experience! I’m a college student working part-time, so i would like to spend as much time as possible with your pets! As long as you let me know what’s up, I’d be happy to be of service :) I have a fenced in yard on a not-busy street, so the dogs can play (and even bark) freely as they please. I just want them to have fun!

“I don’t leave reviews but Kayla went way above and beyond for me dealing with my dog getting sick and cleaning it and handling my injured dogs bandages coming off and reapplying them for me! I couldn’t give more praise to her and wouldn’t recommend anyone else if you want the best care for you’re pet!”


About: My family always owned pets and I'm the only person that my old roommate trusts to dogsit for them. I love the company of pets. I work fully remote from anywhere with cellular coverage or WiFi and only have rare times when I absolutely have to be in meetings so I have a lot of flexibility to make time for other things. If it's okay with you, I would like to let your pet free to roam around your house just as if you were home. I love petting them and having chats while I'm working. I always set reminders for the meal times and potty breaks you request to make sure they are pampered as much as you want. No sharing of human food, only their approved diest and treats.

About: I have been regularly pet sitting for the past three years, and have sat for various friends' pets in the past. I have cared for senior pets and administered medication. I understand that having the "parents" away can be a stressful time for a pet, and I do my part to ensure that the pets are as comfortable as possible while under my care. I am an artist/freelance designer and side gig virtuoso (that's a fancy way of saying I make my own schedule). I keep things flexible to adapt to different environments. I believe that animals are healers and that we get back the care that we give to them. I am deeply grateful that I get to have the freedom that this and my other gig/freelance work allows me. I hope that is reflected in my care and respect of the clients' home.

About: I helped train my mom’s 2 pit puppies and taught them tricks (shake, sit, etc.) I will love them like no other just like they’re my own! I am willing to spend majority of the week , every week, doing what I love most ! Whether that is having animal sleepovers , sightseeing , or just making sure they are fed and happy , I can always make time for you & your animals needs & wants . I have a kitten & a dog that just got out of their puppy stages ! I know what it’s like to have the mischievous zoomies ,the crazy jumping puppy kisses , and the leash pulling sniffers , but know how to handle it in a way that your animal will always be safe while with me .

“Emily came & met Creed, made friends with him & had a play date with him for a few hours while we were gone. She sent me several pics & even a video which eased my mind. Creed seemed very content & happy when we returned. I do believe he likes his new friend.”


“Skylar has been a wonderful help with my two fur babies! She is great at communicating and is very flexible and accommodating. I’m happy with the care my boys receive when I’m away!”


About: Iv worked with many breeds of dogs. Iv trained my own service dog and I’m working as an intern with a trainer to continue that journey. Iv interned at vets and can give oral and topical medications. My goal is to own my own day camp, training facility, sports facility for dogs in the future. I am a stay at home mom and can be available any day. During the week the longest the dogs are left alone are 1-3hrs. We have a large fenced in yard with plenty of room to roam and play. We have three large dogs, a hound mix, and English setter, and a German Shepherd. We have a two year old that loves dogs but understands the proper boundaries with them and even how to play ball with them. We do snuffle activities, leashed walks, free walks in our yard, fetch, tug, whatever your pup wants/needs we can and WILL provide it for them. Your pup will be treated with as much love and care as my pups receive!

About: I treat every animal as if it were my own pet- with lots of love, care, and compassion. I’ve watched many many animals over the past couple years and have loved every second of it. I am currently only doing Instacart as my job so I am very flexible with the hours I’m able to do. I am able to come any time of day. I treat every animal as if it were my own. Lots of love and care go into every animal I watch/take care of. I try to make it so the animals aren’t focused on missing the owner as much.


About: I've been a dog mom for many years, caring for Jack Russel's, a Belgian Malinois and even spiders and snakes! Nothing phases me! Is your pet an escape artist? I'll run after them barefoot in my PJs (done this many times!). Is your pet grumpy? I'll love them anyways. Is your pet just unruly in general, requires special attention or demands you to stay on your toes? I've been there. I'm an active person and there's nothing I wouldn't do to help or care for your fur baby, that I wouldn't do with my own. Thanks for giving me a look and I hope to hear from you! I'm available most weekends and evenings. For walks during the day, I just need a little heads up! Looking forward to meeting your fur baby :) For in-home service, I will follow your babies routine to the letter! I know it's important to minimize changes in your pets environment, so they can be calm and happy in your absence :)


About: I have been an avid animal lover and caretaker for all of my life. I am the friend everybody calls when they need someone they trust to ensure their pets are properly cared for. Animals are truly my passion and I cannot wait to meet your pets! I am currently working part-time and furthering my education so I have plenty of time in my week to help you with all of your pet care needs. Every pet owner has different expectations for the care of their furry friends. I am happy to work with you to decide on a gameplan that puts both you and your pets at ease.

About: I’ve owned dogs for over 10 years now and take passion in caring for them especially seniors. As well as training them to my best abilities I ride and train horses for a living so it allows me to have some spare time through my days to be able to do what I want. I have friendly dogs but live on a farm so no fenced in areas. I would take great care of your pets in your home to whatever requirements you have for them!

About: Animal lover! I was raised with dogs and cats, having them my entire life. I've been pet sitting the for years before companies like Rover even existed! I have been a vegan for 11 years consuming no animal products. Neither do I use or wear anything made from animal products. I consider any animal whether it be a dog, cat or some other type of animal to be a member of the family and should be loved and respected like any other member. Whether your dog/cat wants to walk, play or run, I can be there for him (or her). I can be available for emergency situations if needed. Usually any time any day. As far as I'm concerned it's a dog's/cat's world so we operate on their time! I personally have one cat at the moment. However, I do walk elderly neighbor's dogs for them if needed. I carry dog and cat food in my car in case I see strays and have been known to stop traffic to catch a stray kitten. I I am in the process of starting a non profit cat rescue, from my home. Love and time are not factors when it comes to taking care of animals! I do not allow my cats to roam free. I put them on a nice long lead when they want to go outside and I sit with them. It is the same with dogs.

Suzi P.
“Suzi is an avid animal lover and the animals simply love her back!! Suzi has been a dog and cat sitter for us countless times. We have had two dogs and four cats to date, a few of them with special needs and we never ever had to worry about any of them while they were in Suzi's care. We have been 100% comfortable with Suzi watching our pets and our home over the years. Knowing our pets were in her care gave us tremendous peace while we were away. Suzi loves all pets as if they were her own. Suzi also has experience working at a Veterinarians' office and has remained a vegan out of her love, respect, and devotion for all animals. Suzi is an excellent choice as a pet sitter!!”
