“Brenna is such a great young woman. I love her energy and instant connection with my dog. I will definitely call her in the future to take care of my puppy. She keeps me updated every day and send me a picture of my dog.”

About: I used to have a fur baby of my own and I would not mind helping out taking Care of yours. With this opportunity it will help me get to know people and their dogs. I'm currently looking for an extra stream of income while I do something that I love which is helping take care of your fur babies. I take care your fur babies by making sure they're taken out to use the bathroom at the time that is scheduled. To make sure they're getting some type of movement by taking them on a walk and let them run around especially if its a closed area.
About: I’ve had a pet since the age of 8 years old! I am experienced in walking, feeding, bathing, and more for all pets. I’m a college student home for the summer looking to continue working with animals as I am an aspiring veterinarian. I’ve worked with big dogs, small dog, hyper dogs, cats, and more on my veterinarian journey and hope to work with your pet as well (: I have a pretty flexible schedule as I am only working one other job part time. I’m always near my phone and available on short notice if needed! The dog I have right now, Belle is a small breed chihuahua and pug mix. I house trained her myself when she was a puppy. She has free range of the house as she’s potty trained and knows she’s not allowed upstairs without an adult.
About: Avid Rover user turned sitter. I enjoy being able to use my genuine love for animals and experience to provide proper care, exercise, fun-activities, and company. I have had animals of all shapes and sizes my entire life and am sure I can suit any special need or situation your fur baby may have. At 17 I began training animals, mostly dogs. However, I have also worked with cats, horses and other pets like rabbits, snakes, etc. I have turned my Ranch style home with a double wide fenced yard into a calming doggie sanctuary. The air controlled sunroom and living areas are theirs to explore and relax. Fitted with multiple bedding and sleeping areas indoors and a wading pool and sun beds outdoors, this space is truly a pet paradise. We also work with a certified groomer who provides a wide variety of services during house visits per owner request at an additional charge. Packages and groomer portfolio upon request. I hope you consider me to care for your little loved one and I look forward to becoming your best friend's new best friend. My husband and I usually work from home so there will always be someone with your little ones. Potty breaks are every 2 hours and pups will get at least 2 hours outside a day weather permitting. I will always treat your pet as if it were my own. There's no limit to what I'll do to make sure your pet feels safe and at home. I'll also keep you updated on their status while here with me via photo, video etc. Caring for animals is a part of my daily routine as it is. We were able to find a perfect space that could accommodate as many pups as we’d like! When they’re with us. They’re a part of the family and they live our homesteading routine. As I said, I treat every pet as if it were my own. I have a true love and respect for animals. I ask that owners send their pet with a bed or blanket, toy, or treats that will make them feel at home. I want every owner and pet to be comfortable during their stay with us.
About: I have had animals my whole life and have always loved taking care of them. My mother has worked for Rover for years and I wanted to start getting my own income and decided to try it. I feel comfortable with both cats and dogs and I am confident to pet sit and dog walk as well. I have one of my own dogs and I walk him 3-5 miles every day. I have a lot of experience dog walking because my dog used to be an extremely tough puller and he was crazy. I would love to get to know your furry friend and spend some time with them. I am confident in pet sitting and take care of pets while owners are out of town.

About: I recently lost my doggy friend of 11 years. I have experience with elderly and sickly pups. I will handle your pup with the same care that I took care of mine. I work from home full time, so I am able to provide plenty of potty breaks and walks if required. We have a large back yard that is fenced in for play as well. I have a fenced back yard. We just have a 12 year old that visits for the summer once a year. I am able to travel and care for your pets in your home as well if that is more comfortable.
“Kate was great with my senior dog checking on her 3 times a day during our family vacation. This was my first experience with Rover and I appreciated each of the visit summaries along with the photos. Kate gave my old girl lots of pats and time to freely roam outside. She also brought in the mail and the dumpster from the street as well as checking and watering the plants on my porch. I would definitely consider using Rover again and Kate especially!”

“Austin is a life saver. We have two dogs, one who is very nervous and protective and even had a biting incident. This made it very difficult for us to go on vacations since finding a sitter would be difficult. We reached out to Austin, explained the situation, and asked if he could come by every couple of weeks for the dog to get used to him, and he said he'd be happy to help us. The plan worked and, after several visits, we were able to go on a five day vacation! Austin cared for the dogs each day, showed up on time, sent pictures and notes, and even said he and the dog had bonded by the end! We recommend and will definitely use Austin in the future.”

About: I provide intentional, attentive care, treating every pet like my own. I don’t just “watch” pets; I engage with them, learn their routines, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have hands-on experience with puppy training (basic commands, leash manners, crate and potty training), along with public access and service animal training. I’m patient, consistent, and focused on building strong habits. I’m also experienced in senior pet care, including gentle handling, medication support, and slower-paced walks tailored to their comfort and mobility. * For cat care, I respect each cat’s personality, whether they’re social or more independent. I’m attentive to litter box cleanliness, feeding routines, enrichment, and creating a calm, stress-free environment. Whether your pet is high-energy or needs extra care, you can count on dependable service, clear communication, and regular updates with photos. Pet care fits naturally into my day since I work from home, which allows me to be present, flexible, and attentive. I’m able to maintain consistent schedules for feeding, walks, potty breaks, and playtime without long gaps in supervision. Because I’m home throughout the day, pets get more than just check-ins. They get companionship, engagement, and close monitoring. I can easily adjust to their routine, whether that means midday walks, reinforcing training, or providing extra comfort for senior pets. My schedule allows me to give pets the time, structure, and attention they deserve while keeping owners updated with regular communication and photos. Your pet’s safety and comfort is my top priority. In my home, I provide a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment with a secure fenced yard for safe outdoor breaks and play. Pets are always supervised, and I’m mindful of introductions, boundaries, and maintaining a low-stress atmosphere. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your space and stick closely to your pet’s normal routine to keep things consistent. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes, and I’m attentive to any changes in behavior, appetite, or energy. Not only do I take the time to understand each pet’s needs, triggers, and preferences, and I’m experienced with puppies, seniors, and pets in training. Whether it’s reinforcing routines, administering basic medications, or providing a safe, structured environment, I aim to give you complete peace of mind with regular updates and photos.
“James was wonderful with our kitties! From giving medication to communication, everything was great. We appreciate him caring for our cats during the holidays and will definitely be using him in the future!”

About: Hello! My name is Aja. I grew up with 3 dogs and have always felt having a dog in the home was one of the best parts of my childhood. I love the energy and love a dog brings to the home. I am very tuned into dogs and and their needs. I have a quite, safe, home and neighborhood. My 5 year old daughter and I are looking to offer part time care for a loving small dog. We would LOVE to care for your dog in our home. I work in the TV and Film industry so due to traveling once every 6-8 weeks I can only offer part time care however my availability when I am in town is fully open! I live in a very quiet and safe neighborhood. I am very attuned to a dog's needs. I have a large backyard however it is not fenced so being on a leash when going outside is needed. Your dog will have free range to roam and play around my 4 bedroom ranch home. One of the rooms in the house is designated to our visiting dog in case they need some quiet time or sleep time. I am a single mom so feel assured it is just myself and my daughter in the home. Your dog will get a lot of attention, be fully supervised in a calm quiet environment.
