“I am ecstatic with Mandy's help with my dog, Jesus. He is naturally timid and he has warmed up to her in less than a week, even after a cross country move. When I come home from work, I can tell that a responsible, caring person has paid him a visit because he is relaxed and happy. Mandy is very quick to respond and communicates very well. I would highly recommend Mandy and greatly appreciate her support!”

“Tigue was wonderful with our cat, Honey. Tigue sent pictures every day and took time to brush Honey and make her feel comfortable. I recommend Tigue to anyone who needs a pet sitter.”

“Angelique was great! This was our first time leaving our pets with someone who wasn't family or friends, so we were nervous, but she did an amazing job! She even got my super skiddish cat to come out of hiding 😊 I would definitely recommend using Angelique!”

“Amanda was wonderful! I reached out short notice while I was out of town and my wife had a longer day at work than usual. She did a drop-in visit for our two dogs and everything went smoothly. We’d happily book again!”


About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals from the age of 11 and up. I have about 10 years of experience pet sitting, walking and training, with all different sizes of dogs, cats and even some horses! I volunteered at taps for about a year and a half. I’ve always been a big animal lover for as long as I can remember, I treat every animal as if they were my own baby’s! I currently work a part-time job so I have plenty of time throughout the day to take care of your baby’s the only times I’m not available is past 6pm on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. I am very clean and respectful in other peoples homes most the people I’ve pet sat or dog walked for say they wouldn’t have even noticed I was there if there wasn’t things in the trash
About: Majority of work experience in the pet industry and 15+ years experience in care for pets of all ages including 4 years specialized pet nutrition. I work remotely from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide care for your pets during the week. I’m available for drop-in visits or dog walking on select weekdays and weekends. Unfortunately, at this time, I do not offer boarding or pet sitting. My schedule may shift occasionally, but I will always communicate any changes with ample notice to ensure your pets receive the attention they deserve. I walk my small pups 2-3 times daily and for my kitties we have dedicated play time the keep them busy and active. For clients, I will adapt to pets’ activity levels and owners’ expectations, ensuring personalized and reliable care.
About: I've always had a passion for taking care of animals and hanging out with your dog is no exception! I am able to feed, bathe, walk, cuddle, and whatever else is needed to make your fur baby comfortable. I have a Monday- Friday, 7-430 job so I am able to do early morning & evenings. I am also free most weekends and possibly holidays. I have a townhouse so am unable to house your dogs here. However, I am more than willing to travel or stay with them at your place, depending on what your preference is.
“Linden did a wonderful job checking in on our cat while we were away! She took lots of adorable pictures of our little guy during each visit. She followed our instructions to the letter and spent extra time with Oliver when she felt like he was stressed.”


About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 12 and worked as a zookeeper for the past 4 years! I have extensive experience caring for a large range of animals, including those with special health and age related needs. I'm home for the summer before I start my veterinary technician program in October. I will be traveling for periods of it but have an otherwise very open schedule. I own two cats, both of which are calmer in temperament, and have available separate space to care for smaller animals in my home. Currently I watch my family’s bird when they travel and keep him in a Separate room and the cats know to keep out as well as safety precautions I take to keep everyone safe.
“I couldn't be happier with Serenity's care for my dog! She was attentive, reliable, and treated my pup like her own. It was clear she has a natural love for animals, and I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in her care. Serenity sent regular updates, which made the experience even better. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”

“Theodore is a wonderful pet sitter. We received regular messages and photos of our cats during our long trip. It was great to know they had a friend to keep them company while we were away. I highly recommend their services. Thanks again!”

“A lovely young lady. Took time to come & meet my doggie before hand. Stayed longer than requested to spend more time keeping my Izzy company. Would HIGHLY reccomend, don't hesitate to use her. Thank you Olivia.”

About: I am currently getting my bachelor's in animal behavior and care. I've had many bteeds of dog from small to large as well as cats. I love all breeds and I am open minded to all animals. Even the scaly ones. I have 3 cats and a dog with ptsd from their previous owner. I work but am more then able to adjust my schedule in order to pet sit. I will still be sure they are fed properly, played with, and taken out as needed. I will ensure your pet is fed, walked, taken out and generally well looked after with lots of playtime. I can work with their dietary schedules and needs as well as their special care.
“Aubrey was available on short notice and did a great job taking care of our cat. She was attentive to his habits and notified us when something deviated from normal so that we could take action to put things back on track. I hope Aubrey will be available to care for our cat again!”

“I was away from my babies for almost 2 weeks and was really nervous leaving them but was so reassured with Ivory!! She was so sweet and always went above and beyond with her communication and care! I always knew what was going on and always had plenty of pictures. I’ll definitely be using her again and would recommend her to anyone!”

About: I have own 4 dog over the years. I had them from pups to senior. Most of the time they are in the back yard but they were given love and plenty of attention. With the lose of my last dog I have decided not to own any more but take care of a ferret instead. They are just as much of a hand full as a dog is but smaller then a dog. I do still like dogs but with how thing are own a new one would be heart breaking if I lose it so I have decided to help dog owners with the care of their dog and rover is the platform that help matching me with dog owners that are looking some I work flexible hours. I am available at night during the week to look after pet at the clients home. I will also care for pet on the weekends if needed I prefer to take care of pets in there home environment because that is what the pet is use to. A new environment will make the pet not want to open up to someone new

About: I have been a dog lover since the day I was born! I have a BSc in Veterinary Technology, have been a US Army Veterinary Technician for 20 years working with Military and Law Enforcement working dogs and have a huge passion for canine enrichment and fitness 🐕❣️ I am a full time student pursuing my Master's in Clinical Care, but don't let that discourage you! I have excellent time management skills, and can very easily balance lifestyle and education. I am also still in the Reserves, meaning one weekend out of each month, I won't be available to hang out with your sweet fur-babies 😭 Otherwise, I am wide available! I do have 5 dogs of my own and a fully fenced yard. However, they are a solid pack and can be a little unpredictable when introducing new friends. Because of this, my main goal is to take your fur-babies on walks and get them some exercise and enrichment, rather than have them over for play time.
