“Dependable, responsible, caring, and thoughtful. We were away for two weeks and have used Amy’s services several times for our senior dog and cat.

About: I am a runner in my spare time and love dogs. Thought this would be a good way to get a little extra practice in. I walk/run with my Aussie all the time! My Aussie walks or runs with me most days. I also have had 4 other dogs in my life. All different breeds and sizes. I love being outside and having an excuse to exercise in a fun way. My current dog Heidi is leash trained and off leash trained. I take it very seriously and have put her through training as I have done with all of my dogs. The same skills will be used when your dogs are in my care.
About: I've wanted to be a veterinarian since I could talk. I've always loved animals. I chose another career path, but I work part-time, on weekends. My kids are all self sufficient, so now I can devote more time to things I enjoy: playing with, and caring for animals. I am currently working part-time, weekends only, so I am available Monday through Friday for all of your pet care needs. Please let me help! I have a fully fenced in yard, 6 foot privacy fence. I have a pup who's 13 weeks that would love the company of your furry friends.
“Hailey is amazing! Every time I go out of town I know I can count on her to keep my fur babies well taken care of. She is excellent and I cannot recommend her enough 💜💜💜”
“We booked Hannah to drop by our house daily for our cat, Raven, while on vacation and she did a fantastic job. This was our cat’s first time being left alone and Hannah made sure we didn’t have to worry. Will be using her again when we go out of town in the future.”
About: As a pet sitter, my greatest joy comes from the wagging tails and purrs of contentment I receive from the animals in my care. Each pet is unique, and I take pride in understanding their individual needs and personalities. Whether it's a playful pup who loves fetch or a cuddly cat who enjoys a good nap, I ensure they feel safe, loved, and happy while their owners are away. Knowing that I can provide peace of mind to pet parents and a comfortable environment for their furry friends is what makes pet sitting so rewarding for me. I am freshly graduated from empire beauty cosmetology school. I now work in a restaurant so I have mornings and early afternoons available and nights. I have 2 dogs at home and used to have a cat. Everyday it is my duty to feed, water, and play with my pups to keep them happy and healthy, and I can do the same for yours!
“Amelia is great!! She sent updates and pictures during my busy trip. I’m so glad I tried out Rover because my old anxious dog does better in the comfort of her own home than at a boarding facility.”
About: I used to babysit all my friends dogs when they went out of town for weeks at a time and the dogs were always in good hands! Potty breaks, new toys, baths if needed! I treat them like my own! Im currently working full time, but im able to do walks or visits after work or full time on the weekends! I'm also in college, but I do it all online, so I have lots of free time on the weekends. I love going the extra mile for every dog as if they’re my own! I love tiring out dogs and ensuring they have the most fun possible because they definitely deserve it!

I’m comfortable with all temperaments and energy levels and I’ve cared for pets with special needs including administering oral and topical treatments (no injectable experience).

I understand the importance of sticking to routines and I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved and well cared for while you’re away! Your pets health and happiness are paramount to me and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. I’m the mom of zero human children, and have three adopted fur babies: Jax (18), Bean (4), and Peanut (1). I’d love to meet you and your pet! My current work schedule is 8AM-5PM Monday- Friday so I am NOT available during those hours. But free before and after those hours during the week and free all weekend.

Harley F.
“Amazing! Can’t recommend her enough, went on a cruise for 3 weeks and she was amazing at looking after my bernedoodle! She gave him all his medication, and food on time and took him out to potty frequently, also updated us almost everyday about how he was doing and gave us that peace of mind.”
Nicole I.
“⸻ Nicole is the only pet sitter I fully trust. She genuinely cares for my cats and gives them her full attention every time she’s with them. One of my cats had a very rough start—she was abandoned by her mother and spent her early life locked in a bathroom with minimal human interaction. We adopted her after that critical first year, and it took a long time for her to trust anyone, even us. To this day, she’s still afraid of most people—including our toddler (which, honestly, I understand). But incredibly, she warmed up to Nicole almost immediately. That kind of connection is rare, and it says everything about Nicole’s calm, caring nature. She’s been consistently amazing, keeping us updated with thoughtful messages and sweet videos while we’re away. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing our girl is not just being cared for, but is truly loved by someone who understands and respects her. Nicole is not just a sitter—she’s a fellow cat parent and a genuinely compassionate soul. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust completely with their pets.”
Isaac E.
“Isaac is my go-to dog sitter for my fur baby! He is always willing to come on short notice and engages with our energetic pup the whole time. He keeps him active and moving while also ensuring his safety. He treats him like his own. He monitors his medication and food thoroughly making us feel even more comfortable leaving. Isaac has been watching our pup for over a year, and I would not use anyone else but him! Our fur baby loves him and so do we!”
Alexis C.
“Alexis is an absolute gem when it comes to caring for animals. Her dedication, compassion, and natural affinity with pets make her the perfect choice for any pet owner seeking a trustworthy caregiver. I've witnessed firsthand Alexis's attentiveness and genuine love for animals, which shines through in every interaction. Her reliability and responsibility make her an ideal candidate for dog walking; you can rest assured that your beloved pet will be in the best hands possible with Alexis. I wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone seeking a caring and dependable caregiver for their furry companions.”
Mary C.
“Mary is a very kind person who cares deeply for pets. She is very attentive to my dogs when she watches them and always gets back to me quickly when needed. She is timely and we would recommend her services to other pet owners in the area.”
