“We have been having Emma be our rover sitter for a good handful of weeks and we love her! Most importantly, Luna, our pup, adores Emma. I would 100% recommend Emma and truly trust her with my pup. So thankful for her and how well she loves our little Luna 💖”

You just let me know how you would like me to care for them and I will do just that. I have stayed over nights with a laboratory, beagles, golden retriever, Pomeranian, cats, Australian shepherd etc. and we had a blast. I can also give baths as needed or medication if they are on daily pills/oral liquid/shots anything. I hope you will consider me and I hope to help you out soon!!!

About: Hi! I’m Carly! I’m currently in my last semester of my (second-career) nursing program and spending my summer doing something I genuinely love: spending time with dogs! After losing my sweet 13-year-old dog, I’ve really missed having dogs in my daily life. Rover feels like the perfect way to combine my love for animals, staying active, and helping busy pet parents feel confident their dogs are cared for. I’m dependable, responsible, attentive, and very focused on safety and wellbeing. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I treat every dog with patience, affection, and respect for their unique personality and needs. I’m currently offering dog walks and drop-in visits, and I’d love to help give your dog exercise, companionship, attention, and lots of love while you’re away! I’m fairly flexible this summer since I’m currently in my last semester of nursing school and only working part time as a phlebotomist. I’m available most days and at a variety of times throughout the day for walks or drop-in visits. If your dog does best with a consistent routine or set day each week, I’m happy to accommodate that as well! Weekends can be a little more limited, but feel free to reach out and check my availability. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is safety, trust, and a calm environment for your dog. I respect your space and privacy and follow all instructions closely, including routines and feeding schedules. I make sure doors are securely locked, leashes are used properly, and your home is kept safe and as I found it. I focus on keeping your pet comfortable and low-stress while you’re away, paying attention to their needs and giving them plenty of care and reassurance. Above all, I treat your home and pet with respect and responsibility, just as I would expect for my own.
About: I know how it feels to leave your fur baby with someone else and I know how important it is to find someone that your pet loves. I have 2 babies, a girl and a boy and they love to make new friends. Gustavo is the boy he's a border collie mix and Kahlua is the girl she's a Shih tzu. They are both well taken care of in my home and love to meet new people and new doggies. They also get along very well with cats. I work during the day and I walk the dogs in the morning and I go home right after work and walk them again and stay with them. I don't work weekends so I would be free to walk the dogs all day. I don't have a fence but I have a yard and there's a park at the end of my road and I take my dogs there so they can play and excersise.

“Kim is absolutely fantastic! She has taken such wonderful care of our 6 month Golden Retriever puppy named Teddy! Kim is extremely respectful and Teddy loves her! I would absolutely recommend Kim’s services if you are looking for someone to treat your animal with love and care.”
About: I grew up with labs and ultimately wanted lap dogs once I moved out of my parents home. When I was 20 (in college housing) I was crazy enough to get a puppy! My little dachshund made me the most popular student on campus, shortly thereafter I adopted a min pin because being an only child can get lonely! Both my dogs lived to be 20! They recently passed away and we have been missing that part of our family and aren’t yet ready to commit to new furry pets. My daughter is 9 and has done quite a bit of dog sitting already, she is all hands on deck (with supervision) and will surely spoil your pups! We’ve had dogs overnight at our house, done overnights at others home as well as done check ins and day visits. I have experience with administering meds (pills and shots), making special diets, bathing, nail clipping, ear cleaning, teeth brushing and all the typical dog Mom stuff! We like dogs of all sizes and ages! We love to go for long walks and explore nature or play a game of chase or fetch. I work a flexible schedule Monday - Friday and like to stay busy so would be able to accommodate most requests depending on location and advanced notice. We do not currently have any furry pets in our home so your dog(s) would be our main priority! We have a large downstairs basement if your dog has a lot of energy and would get them outside for good exercise as well.
About: I had a dog a few years ago that I absolutely adored and would take care of all the time. He was high energy so I can handle them as rowdy as they get, and I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty, wether it’s a bath or picking up poop. I currently am unemployed but looking for a pet time job, so I have lots of time to take care of your pets. I can only work until august 22nd, but until then I am available almost any time. I always keep human food and dangerous items out of reach, I close the lid on the toilet so they can‘t drink from it, and small or fragile items are put away somewhere that won’t be bumped. I play with your animals a lot, as it makes both of us happy usually, and outdoors are my favorite so walks outside are a regular for me.
About: I’ve had professional experience in animal care; I’ve worked as a pet technician taking care of cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, disabilities and personalities! I’ve learned hands on how to care for their physical and emotional needs. My experience and training in animal care makes me a reliable and qualified sitter for your furry friends! Not only am I experienced in animal care, I’m a puppy and kitty enthusiast! I’ve always love animals, and have owned both dogs and cats sense childhood. Friends and family always come to me as their first choice as a pet sitter because they know I’ll take good care of their pets and will give the all the love and attention they can’t provide when they’re away. Services I can provide for your pet/s include the basics such as feeding them, walks, play time, snuggles, and cleaning up after them, AS WELL as additional services other sitters may not be able to provide such as taking care of animals with disabilities and behavioral issues as well as administering medication. Please send me a message with details of your pet/s as well as dates and or times if you are interested in scheduling me as a sitter. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member! My availability is currently open for summer! Currently I am working Monday-Wednesday mornings until 10am, but the 2nd week of June I will be available full time. I always keep dogs on leashes when we go outside and take walks unless the owners yard is fenced in. On walks I never let people or other animals interact with the dog/s I am sitting unless the owner specifically specifies it is alright AND the dog/s I am sitting show body language indicating they are comfortable with the interaction. I’m easily able to crate dogs if needed or requested as well. Let me know if you have any other questions regarding measures I take to keep your pets safe in your home and on walks!
“Tamany treated my pup with so much care and he loved spending time with her and her daughter. He got so excited seeing them. He knew that he was going to have a great walk. This was my first experience using Rover and I was so worried about trusting my baby with a stranger. Tamany arranged a meet and greet first to make sure that she would be a good fit. I knew within the first 5 minutes that she would be perfect. Thank you Tamany for treating Remmy like he was your pup! I would recommend her in a heartbeat!”


About: I’ve always had animals to take care of since I can remember. Both cats and dogs, and even some other small animals/exotic pets. I worked at a boarding facility with daycare, and I have fostered many dogs in the past. I’m an animal science major and have many hours of experience working with animals of all kinds. I have worked with reactive dogs and I’m always up for keeping your routine consistent with any training you might be working on as well! I will be working a summer job along with pet-sitting this summer. I will only be working max 8 hour shifts and will always have time to care for my own pets, along with yours. If you choose me to take care of them. I have an unfenced yard, but I do have a tether that I can attach a dog to. But of course, I can walk them around the yard on a leash, if that works better for the dog! A typical day with my dog looks like: Wake up and immediately feed him and replenish his water, then out for a potty break. We then spend some time relaxing while I get ready for the day. If he wants, we spend some time inside playing with toys. If I need to go to work, he resides in the common areas of the house. He will always get let out before I leave. If we spend a lot of time inside/if I have to work, I’ll get home and we usually go for a walk to get some energy out. We usually do some training and other daily activities either on the walk or after. Then in the evening he eats again, we go out for a potty break. Normally my dog doesn’t have an overabundance of energy, so we spend the rest of the night cuddling on the couch.

About: I’ve always had a huge love and passion for all animals and have cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities for over five years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. I’m attentive, patient, and always prioritize safety, comfort, and routine. My availability is flexible and depends on my work commitments. I only accept bookings when I can dedicate proper time and focus to each pet, ensuring consistent and attentive care. I’m very mindful of safety and structure when caring for pets. I follow routines, monitor behavior closely, and create a calm environment so pets feel secure and comfortable while in my care.
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I am very active so you can expect frequent walks. I have a 5 year old dog who is very friendly I have full availability for dog walking, I’m home house sitting, and drop in visits if you are away. I love all types of dogs. I am very friendly with all types and sized dogs. I always have treats at the ready and toys with me for a great time. I take long walks regularly and would love for your dog to come with me!
About: I have lived with pets (cats) my entire life; which have ranged in age from a kitten to elderly when they were adopted. I have been surrounded by cats and dogs a majority of my life and love spending time with them. I have engaged with a wide range of animals (from kind/ curious to shy/ hesitant) and have learned to recognize cat/dog body language to avoid any unpleasant (for them and for myself) interactions. I am currently on a hunt for a full time job and am able to spend as much time with your pet as needed. There may be days where I many not be able to spend the full 8 hours with them, but I will be there to give pets plenty of attention and love. I have two cats, one of whom does not do well with the other one; I have found a way for them both to be happy and healthy by having safe spaces for them to rest, eat and use the litter box without being bothered. I plan on playing and keeping your pet safe during my time with them to ensure they do not feel neglected while you are away.

Rochelle has been wonderful with our Rocco. He’s a 12-YO rescue chihuahua who knows what he likes and will let you know what he doesn’t. Rochelle has taken the extra time to get to know us and Rocco, and has been very patient with him as they get to know one another. We know Rocco is in great hands with her!
