Taylor was great working with our dog who get very anxious meeting new people. She did everything possible to make our dog more comfortable and it worked out great. She was able to take a nice walk with our dog and worked with our dog to make her more comfortable. I would recommend Taylor to anyone looking for services on Rover.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, pet sitting for family, friends, and neighbors who trusted me with their furry family members. In addition to years of hands-on experience, I also spent 4 years working in the veterinary field as a veterinary assistant/technician, giving me the knowledge and confidence to care for pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. Additionally I have fostered for local rescues, litters of puppies to senior pups, all with individual needs. Whether your pet needs extra patience, medication administration, senior support, or just lots of love and attention, I’m committed to providing safe, compassionate, and reliable care every step of the way. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time for lots of snuggles and walks. I am able to stop by for quick check-ins or stay for a few hours to get those afternoon zoomies out. I have experience with dogs and cats of all temperaments and breeds, allowing me to calmly and comfortably crate, medicate or walk pets. Having the knowledge and hands-on experience allows me to stay calm in any situation which helps your pets feel safe.

About: I grew up in a household full of animals, so I’m used to some chaotic pet energy. :) I like to play and create a bond with pets. My main focus is making them feel comfortable with the experience. I work full time, but I’m home often so I can work around my schedule when needed. I enjoy just hanging out with the pets but I can also go on an adventure with them if needed to get that energy out! I’ve had many puppies and kittens in my day so I know how to work with them and help potty train if needed. Right now I have two small girl dogs who are super friendly and just want more friends in their lives! They love cats and dogs alike.

Trina has been amazing with Nugget who is NOT a fan of walking. She has been resourceful to ensure he gets the most out of his walks. She is on time, communicative and provides a thorough report after each walk.

About: Hi friend! I am an animal lover through and through and, as a freelancer new to the Bay Area, I’d love to better utilize my flexibility by being a compassionate resource to those pups who need some extra love, attention, support, exercise or fresh air when you’re simply not as available as you wish you could be. I have been entrusted to dogsit for several friends pups (of all sizes) and was lucky enough to share 13 years with my dog Gunther before he went to heaven. I look forward to lightening your load and showing your pet the same love and attention I’d show my own! Availability flexible for now, may be more restricted in the future. I look forward to meeting your pup, please do not hesitate to ask me if you have any questions at all. ♥️

About: Hi! I am a 2020 graduate of University of Maryland and work as a public school teacher in PG county. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes, and have lots of experience with big dogs (my family had a Chesapeake Bay Retriever). I was a secondary caregiver for a future guide dog puppy while in college and helped with obedience classes for my friend’s Great Dane, so I also have a good amount of experience with young dogs. I am friendly, responsible, and timely. I am very active and would love to walk your dog as long as you want, but I also love just hanging out and playing around the house too for less-active dogs. I am available any time Friday - Sunday and evenings and mornings Monday - Thursday. I have some breaks between classes during the week when I could stop in or be available for a potty break. I always strive to be as clean and respectful of your home as possible, and to leave it just as I found it (or better)!

I’m comfortable with all sizes and breeds—from small dogs like my Morkie to large breeds like Pit Bulls and Rhodesian Ridgebacks, which I help care for regularly. I work from home, so I’m able to give pets consistent attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. I’m responsible, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I work from home, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention and keep their routines consistent. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have lifelong experience caring for dogs and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I closely follow each owner’s instructions, keep a clean and safe environment, and make sure pets are supervised and well cared for at all times. I treat every pet like my own and always focus on keeping them happy, secure, and stress-free. I’m happy to send photo and video updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: Ive taken care of animals my whole life. Whether it was a dog, ferret, or even a goldfish I absolutely adore animals with my whole heart. Im currently going to school full time with a very open schedule that gives me a majority of the day to be free for whatever I need to do. Ive grown up with both crate trained and uncrate trained dogs both big (cane torso) or small (chihuahua) and have had no problem getting them in comfortably and safely. Having multiple pets makes keeping track of when they need to go out and when they should be fed very easy making sure to have as little accidents as possible and always checking the surroundings when letting them in and out of the house.

About: I have taken care of many dogs over the years, I am good at keeping a strict routine and ensuring dogs feel comfortable in their environment. I adopted a rescue a couple years ago and worked with her to make her feel comfortable and loved. I have worked with many breeds, sizes and temperaments. I am usually available on weekends for extended care and I am able to do check ins at morning, lunch and evenings with enough advanced notice. In the client's home I follow exact instructions, the clearer the better I am all about communication to ensure your fur-baby is taken care of. In my own home, your pet will have some friends that love other dogs. We have half an acre of fenced in yard that its plenty of space for them to stretch their legs. I have a solid routine with my dogs so we would combine routines to ensure everyone is kept comfortable.

I am able to offer basic puppy training, senior dog care/disabled dog care and also administer medicines. Follow our journeys at themanyminiadventures on IG. I work part-time and am the caregiver for my mother since a bad accident in November of last year and have time to walk, play with, feed and take care of your animal’s needs throughout the day, week or even over the weekend! I enjoy getting to know & have fun with different pups and genuinely understand how important it is to leave your fur babies in good hands. My schedule is very flexible for pup-sitting, spending time with your fur babies and giving them adequate playtime and potty opportunities outside. I treat your fur babies like they’re our fur babies while they are here with the exception of following their diet and your specific instructions. We also: walk dogs on a leash. have extra crates if needed. allow dogs outside time for play in a fenced in part of the yard with the pup friends they came with or solo. provide potty and exercise walks while leashed to allow for new scents as well. Feed pups separately unless they came together and we have been notified they eat well together by the owner(s). have additional sleeping blankets and puppy bedding when needed. notify you immediately in the case of any abnormalities/concerns or emergencies. provide you with pictures and updates over the course of your pup’s stay.

I appreciate Lillian for being reliable for taking care of my rover dog. She arrived on time to walk Edie on a holiday evening, followed instructions for dog care, took a couple of photos, and issued a rover report on Edie’s activities. I would recommend her service and we rebook her when needed.
