Alexis did a wonderful job communicating throughout the day. I loved receiving updates and pictures at every visit. Knowing Bruce was in such good hands made being away so much less stressful.

Emily did great with my dogs and I know she took excellent care of them. My babies can be a handful and she never once complained. She gives a lot of details in her communications and I really do like that. It puts me at ease knowing my babies are well taken care of

Melanie went out of her way to come meet Olivia and us before her time to dog sit. She was flexible, communicated very well and did an excellent job. This was our first time to use Rover and we are hooked! Thank you!

This was my first time using Rover or someone I didn’t know to take care of my cat. I was very nervous. Megan was excellent. She was available at very short notice & did a great job with a very fussy cat. I will definitely look to her again should I need someone to look after my girl. She even went through some extreme weather to make sure my pet was fed. She was dedicated.

About: I have hands on experience with both high energy and anxious dogs, so I’m comfortable handling everything from playful pups to pets that need a calmer, more reassuring approach. I also have experience being around cats through friends and family, and I’m happy caring for both. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be consistent and reliable with visits, walks, and check ins. I’m able to plan my day around pet care responsibilities and make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need without feeling rushed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions and prioritize the pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs and aim to create a calm, reassuring environment. I also respect the home by keeping things clean, following any house rules, and making sure everything is left as it was found. I provide updates and photos so owners feel confident while they’re away.

Maddie made me feel that my precious cat was going to be well-taken care of while we were away, and she did not disappoint. Prompt and courteous, I have already recommended her to a neighbor. I hope she will be able to allow me to travel without worry many more times in the future.

Nastasia is an awesome pet sitter, she helped me on a last minute business trip, this was my first time leaving Sylvester for Greater than 24 hours. Nastasia was extremely professional, communicative and treated my feline with the upmost care and attention. I will definitely hire Nastasia again and recommend anyone else to do the same.

About: I’ve worked at a Vet hospital and I dog sit for many different dogs often. I currently walk 2 dogs every week 2 to 3 days. I’m currently working part time while walking other dogs but I still have availability! Overnights are also doable for dogs that do not need 24/7 attention and care. I follow each pet’s routine, provide fresh food and water, keep their space clean, offer playtime and comfort, and ensure they feel safe and cared for in any home.

About: I have worked in a doggy daycare that required us to not only manage the dogs but also teach them how to properly socialize with other dogs! This sparked my love for dog training and once I got my dog Turtle my journey to becoming a dog trainer began! My mission is to help you and your dog’s life be more fulfilling together in any way I can. Whether that be teaching you guys how to communicate better, being there while you’re working to support them, or taking them out on adventures I will do my best to make it worthwhile! I can’t wait to meet you but specifically your pup! 🙏🐶❤️ I work two part-time jobs with one of them being a dog trainer. This means plenty of time and skills that I can use to not only be there for your dog but also help them learn! When it comes to your pets care you tell me what is best. You know your dog better than I ever will, which means you know their discomforts. My job is to care for them to the best of my ability and I fully intend to do so by avoiding any extra stress!

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors. For senior dogs, I provide gentle walks, monitor health, and administer medications as needed. For adult dogs, I focus on maintaining a healthy routine with regular exercise and balanced care. With puppies, I emphasize training, socialization, and positive reinforcement. I tailor walks and activities to each dog's age and energy level, and manage medications with care. My approach is always compassionate, ensuring the well-being of dogs at every stage of life. Doing pet care as a sitter helps my schedule by offering flexible hours, structured tasks, and steady income, while improving my time management and responsibility. As a pet sitter, I prioritize safety, trust, and a positive environment by ensuring pets are cared for, following routines, maintaining clear communication, and providing a secure space.

Emma and Timothy have watched my dogs two times now and I couldn’t ask for anyone better! My timid German shepherd warmed up to them quickly and my overly excited Shepard Pit mix loves them! Emma and Timothy communicate often and send the cutest pictures! I know my babies are in good hands when I book them.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and genuinely enjoy caring for them. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me for years to check in on, feed, walk, and spend time with their pets while they’re away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and have experience with larger breeds like Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds, and Leonbergers, so I’m confident handling bigger dogs as well. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are gone. My schedule is pretty flexible right now, so I’m able to do drop-ins, walks, and check-ins throughout the week. I’m reliable about sticking to feeding schedules, potty breaks, and making sure pets get attention and playtime while their owners are away. I always try to keep pets comfortable in their normal routine and environment. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, medications, or anything specific the pet needs. I’m patient with animals and make sure they feel safe, calm, and well cared for while their family is gone.
