About: I have experience caring for dogs through friends, family, and personal experience. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, administering basic care, and giving plenty of love and attention. I’m always eager to learn your dog’s unique needs and preferences. I work from home on Thursdays and Fridays and have most weekends free, allowing me to provide attentive, loving care and plenty of quality time for your fur babies When babysitting pets in my home, I have a fully fenced backyard where they can safely go outside when needed, and I live in a great neighborhood for walks. I always follow the pet’s routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care.

Taylor is amazing and our golden retriever absolutely loves her! She was able to help us out on short notice and we really appreciated it. She provided pictures of our pup during her visit and made sure to update us on everything. Highly, highly recommend her!

About: Hi, I'm Harper! I'm a lifelong animal lover with experience in taking care of kittens and small to medium-sized dogs. I understand that every pet is unique and has their own specific needs, whether it's an active dog who needs lots of playtime or a shy cat who needs patience and gentle handling. What makes me different? Genuine Love & Attention – I treat every pet like my own, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved. Small & Medium Dog Comfort – I provide dogs with the attention they need, from walks to playtime to cuddle time. Basic Training Fun – My cat is trained to do paw and high-five, so I am patient and enjoy getting pets involved in fun learning! Patient & Gentle Approach – I understand that certain pets require time to warm up, and I’m more than willing to work at their pace. Work From Home Availability – Since I work from home, I can give pets the attention they need throughout the day, so they are always attended to, comforted, and never left alone. I would be happy to look after your pet while you are away! Tell me how I can help. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide your pet with regular attention and care throughout the day. Whether they need playtime, cuddles, or just a quiet presence near them, I’ll make sure that they feel safe and at ease while you’re away. My primary concern is the comfort and well-being of your pet. Whether I am caring for them in your home or welcoming them into my home, I offer a safe, clean, and stress-free environment where they can feel secure and loved.

Min has been wonderful. She sent me both videos and pictures of her visit. Samson was happy. She continually asked questions so she can meet all of his needs. She even gave compliments on how my fur baby was behaved and well mannered. Just a very kind person. Definitely will use her again

About: I am a Licensed Veterinary Technician with 30 years experience caring for dogs, cats, pet birds, chickens, small mammals, reptiles, and other "non-traditional" pets. In addition to dogs and cats, my own pets have included rabbits, ferrets, box turtles, parrots, finches, and even a Texas spiny lizard! Do you have a senior dog or cat that needs some extra care and attention during the day? Or a special needs pet that has unique medical needs the average person may not be prepared to handle? Or how about a new puppy that needs mid-day potty breaks while you are at work, and could also use a few extra minutes of training to learn good habits? As a Fear Free Certified Professional, I only use reward-based training methods so your pet will look forward to my visits! I currently work full-time from home. My work schedule is unique which gives me the opportunity to provide mid-day walks and drop-in visits, as well as evening check-ins. I value the trust you place in someone to care for your furry, feathered, or scaled family member in the same manner that you would. I have dedicated my life to caring for and providing medical care for other people's pets, and will look after your pets as if they were my own!

About: I have had multiple types of animals all my life. I have worked in dog Boarding facilities as well as Veterinary Clinic settings. I can give oral medications. I have experience handling dogs of all sizes, ages and temperaments. I live in an apartment so I take my dogs for multiple walks a day making sure they get plenty of exercise throughout the day. I don't have a yard so we go on walks often. We definitely stay active. They get plenty of pets and loves as well as playtime.

When it comes to promptness, Jill is the sitter of choice. She came at the agreed upon time (two times a day for a week), sent pictures to document my cat's wellness, provided food and water, administered meds, brought in the mail, etc. It is obvious that she has compassion for animals and takes pride in a job well done. I will not hesitate to use her again!

About: I am an animal lover of all shapes and sizes. I am a mom of 2 bully breeds and do not discriminate! I would love to meet and care for all fur babies. I am comfortable walking, feeding, and anything else you may need! I have also had multiple senior family dogs and puppies throughout my 25 years. I am a recent graduate studying for my licensing exam and would love an excuse to meet and be outside with animals. My schedule is pretty flexible currently. Your home, your rules. It will be like I was never there. My goal is to care for your pets just as you would. Specific goals for walks or home will be upheld!

I chose Miki to take care of my two cats for six days because of her previous outstanding reviews, and I'm absolutely thrilled that I did! As soon as you meet her, you'll know she's the one to trust with your babies while you're away. I have one cat who is very active and another who is, well, lazy (I'll call her "W"). Miki sent pictures every day, and she had "W" jumping and playing like I've never seen before! I will absolutely use Miki if I ever have to leave them alone again - or even when I have knee surgery and can't get around very easily for a few days.

Maria was wonderful! She visited my home the night before our trip to meet my pets and learn a few things, which made me much more at ease about leaving for a week. She cared for my dog and cat, checked on my outdoor cats, and handled small tasks I hadn't considered, such as adjusting the house temperature when the outside temperature dropped significantly and then rose again. Thanks to her, I could relax and enjoy my trip, confident that my home was in good hands. I will definitely request to book Maria again when the need arises!

We recently went on a three-day international trip and needed someone truly trustworthy to look after our cat. We were fortunate enough to find Vicki, and I can confidently say she exceeded every expectation we had. From the very beginning, her communication was clear, professional, and thoughtful. She asked the right questions, paid attention to every detail, and instantly gave us peace of mind. While we were away, Vicki cared for our cat with a level of dedication and kindness that is rare to find. She didn’t just “check in” on him—she genuinely spent time with him, comforted him, played with him, and made sure he felt safe and loved in our absence. Her updates were consistent, detailed, and incredibly reassuring. Each photo and message reflected how much she truly cares about animals. When we came back home, we could immediately see the difference. Our cat was calm, happy, and completely relaxed—almost as if we had never left. In fact, over the past few days, we can tell he genuinely misses Vicki and keeps looking toward the door, waiting for her to walk in again. It’s rare for him to bond with someone new so quickly, and that alone says everything about the level of comfort and trust she created. To be honest, we feel like we’ve found a new member of our family in Vicki. Her kindness, reliability, professionalism, and genuine love for animals make her an exceptional caregiver. Knowing that our cat was in such capable and loving hands allowed us to enjoy our trip without worry. I would recommend Vicki to anyone on Rover who wants true peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone responsible, compassionate, and truly devoted to the well-being of your pet, Vicki is absolutely the person you want. We are so grateful for her and will definitely be booking with her again.
