“Sam is so incredibly patient and so kind, gentle with my dog, Loki💜 he’s going through a lot of changes neurologically and she meets him where he is on that day. Every time she has met with him, he is building rapport with her. Given his difficulties, sometimes he will have accidents in the house and Sam is quick to let me know and use the carpet cleaner, which I truly appreciate. She was also able to come over today with short notice due to a schedule change for work, which helped me feel better about not being home sooner. Highly recommend Sam and will definitely reach out to her again!”
“Jennifer was wonderful with my senior special needs cat! She gave us regular updates and photos and made friends right away. Unfortunately my girl got sick our first day away, which you never want to happen, but Jennifer handled it like a pro! She will be my go-to sitter from here on.”
“Britt was absolutely amazing!! Our dog doesn't like new people taking her out right away, but she took to Britt within just a couple days. Very easy to work with and 100000% recommend!”
About: Blessed with 3 big dogs back at home and couldn’t love them more(Murphy, Millie and Miley). I have also dog sat for multiple friends when they’ve needed to travel and find it so rewarding! Big or small I would love to take care of your fur baby like I would my own. I’m currently free for the summer and would love to get out and do something for others! I’m hoping to fill my days with animals. I love to hike and be outside so having company would be a welcomed treat! Would treat your family like I’d treat my own. Not scared to be firm but fair. I’m big on following instructions so whatever rules you have for your household I can take care of your pet in the way you want.
About: I am a very active person. I love any excuse to run or walk outside, having an animal with me is a huge bonus. My roommate is allergic to dogs, so for now this will be the way to fill the void of not having a pet of my own. Therefore, I promise I will love your pet as if they were mine. Among some turtles and a frog or two, I grew up with three golden retrievers, and I was always the go-to person to watch any of my friend's/coworker's dogs and cats if they were away, ranging from just a couple days to two to three weeks at a time. I am very hardworking, trustworthy, kind, and I absolutely love any and all animals. I went from working in an office to now being remote, so I feel like I have ample time everyday and am always looking for a reason to get outside. My apartment building has a space outside for dogs to mingle and play. Otherwise, there is a park close by me that we can walk to.
“I forgot to disable my alarm one day and she made tremendous effort to t try to contact me and even stayed longer to keep my pup from hearing the alarm go off. Fantastic person and sitter.”
“My family couldn’t have asked for better care for our dog, Bella. As I’m sure we all know, leaving your dog (who is such a big part of your family) is never easy & after seeing Megan’s credentials, we were very optimistic. What we didn’t know, however, was the extent of care & updates we’d receive. While my family had an amazing time on vacation, we looked forward to Megan’s updates at the end of her visit everyday. When homesickness (& missing our dog) came in, her pictures & videos of Bella meant so much to us! Would definitely recommend!!”
“Lauren gets 5 stars for her dog sitting for many reasons. She was at all of her drop in visits on time, spent quality time with my dog, & sent great updates with pictures!! I highly recommend Lauren because she was very trustworthy, and she understood my dog’s needs.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 12 years — including my own sweet senior German Shepherd, who’s been my loyal companion since she was a pup. I’m comfortable with small, medium to large breeds and well-mannered giants, and I have experience with daily meds, senior care, and reinforcing basic commands. I believe patience, consistency, and love go a long way with any dog. Whether your pup needs a potty break, a solid walk, or just some company and belly rubs, I’ve got you covered. My schedule is currently flexible, and I’m only offering drop-ins and walks so I can give your pet my full attention. I treat every dog like family — because they deserve nothing less. I recently moved back from Denver and currently have full availability for dog drop-ins and walks. Since I’m not juggling another job, I’m flexible for weekdays, weekends, and even last-minute bookings. Your pup gets my full attention every time — whether it’s a quick potty break or some mid-day company and exercise. I know how much trust it takes to let someone care for your dog — they’re family. I’ve had my sweet German Shepherd for 12 years, and through every stage, I’ve learned that what dogs need most is patience, routine, and kindness. Whether it’s giving medication, following your exact instructions, or just making sure they feel safe while you’re away, I’ve got it covered. I’ll treat your home and your pup with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.
About: If you ask anyone animals are my favorite thing! I’ll treat your dog as my own. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member!! I’m currently working part time, so I’m flexible are all the walks and needs your dog will need! I’m available all through out the week! Unfortunately I’m not able to bring your furry friends where I live, but am available to come over to the clients house when needed for the pet!
“Kristin went above and beyond taking care of my cats medications while I was traveling. My parents were there as well but cannot manage the medications. They enjoyed Kristin’s company very much and couldn’t say enough nice things about her. She even contacted my vet with questions, which I really appreciated. Kristin stopped over to meet and discuss details before the trip which gave me a lot of peace of mind. She has a great way about her. I highly recommend Kristin.”
“Julia was amazing with Charlie at the drop-in visit. My dog is timid and suffers from anxiety, Julie was patient with Charlie, allowing him to come around to her in his time. Charlie also made a mess in his crate chewing his mattress to pieces and Julia was kind enough to help pick up the mess for me. Thank you!!”
About: I have been working on Wag! For the last 3 years, but decided to try out Rover since so many people love it!! I have also had many dogs and cats growing up and am good at detecting when a dog is scared or distressed. Not only that, but I also have experience with elderly dogs and puppies and can care for both! I have a total of 348 5-star reviews on Wag! as well as hundreds of achievement badges on my profile for walks I’ve done! I can’t wait to help care for more pets on Rover, it really is what I love!! :) I have an online jewelry business that I run from home, I usually work on my orders at night, so during the day, I am free to help out people who’s pets need some extra care while they’re at work! It brings me so much joy to know that I can be of help for your dog/cat while you’re away! When I do sittings, I usually prefer to sit with the dog/cat throughout the day and go home late in the evening since I work on my jewelry orders from my house at night. But I also understand that some pets need extra love and care even at night so if you give advanced notice, I will do my best to make sure I can be with your pet overnight as well!
