“We hired Katelyn for recurring daily walks for our older dog. She does great with her! She makes sure she gets plenty of water and changes the route to a shaded walk when it’s hotter out. She is great with communication as well!”

“Ana did a great job with my two dogs. She is very reliable and I appreciated her flexibility when I needed to change the schedule. I highly recommend Ana!”

About: I’m an experienced, reliable pet sitter who truly loves what I do. Dogs needing extra patience, special care, or close supervision are treated like part of the family. I’m a stay-at-home mom to three school-aged kids and two friendly dogs, so I’m home most of the day. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive plenty of attention. While I’m new to Rover, I’ve cared for dogs for friends and family for years and understand how important it is to trust who’s caring for your pet. Safety is my top priority. I only board one family at a time so your dog gets my full attention. Dogs have free roam during the day and are safely crated (if that’s their routine) or comfortably settled at night. For safety and lower stress, I don’t do dog-on-dog introductions at the meet & greet. Dogs are introduced gradually once they arrive for their stay, allowing calm, controlled interactions. My goal is to keep your dog happy, comfortable, and secure, while giving you peace of mind. With plenty of photo updates to prove it 😊

“Very satisfied! She is so nice and has a great demeanor with my dog. Which was so helpful as I have a senior dog with anxiety. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in the care of Jaclyn.”

About: As a child, I had several pet dogs. As an adult, I had two great dogs for the family. Now recently retired, I occasionally sit and dog-walk two grand dogs. As a retiree, my schedule is quite flexible. I am available any day of the week. I can walk or check in on your pet at any time during the day. I'll be consistent with your pet and alter my interaction depending on your and your pet's style. If I'm at your home, I'll treat it with great respect and leave everything as it was when I arrived.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life — my family has always had both dogs and cats of all sizes, so caring for pets has always been second nature to me. I had 3 cats at once growing up in my moms house as well! I’ve helped with feeding, walks, playtime, training basics, grooming, and giving lots of love and attention. I have an equal amount of love when it comes to cats and dogs! I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, breeds, and sizes — from small cats and puppies to large, energetic dogs. Whether it’s a calm cuddle session or a long walk for exercise, I enjoy adapting to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine since I will be available three days a week. I’m flexible with mornings, afternoons, and evenings on those days, and I can adjust to your pet’s schedule to make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. I do live in an apartment, but I also have a safe balcony that your pets can get fresh air and relax on if they like being outside often! I always treat pets with the same love and attention as if they were my own. I focus on keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable in their home environment. Whether that means following their feeding routine, giving them bathroom breaks, or just spending extra time playing and cuddling, I make sure they feel cared for while you’re away.

“Crystal was great with our pups, and they looked forward to their walks with her. She helped us out in a pinch, during a holiday, when our plans changed, and we weren't able to take the dogs with us. Even when she wasn't feeling well a couple days, Crystal kept her commitment and made sure the dogs got their walks. We will definitely use her services again!”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and love each and every kind. I currently own two cats and they are my fur babies! My sister has dogs and I love walking them, so I decided to start lending a hand to walk, pet sit, and more to others and their pets! I am capable of taking care of any kind of animal, but have most experience in dogs and cats. I’m currently working part-time as an Ultrasound Technologist and wanted to make some extra money by dog walking or drop ins! I work 3 days a week so this gives me plenty of availability. If I’m pet sitting, I will gladly accommodate your pet’s wants and needs. I can guarantee your dog(s) will get plenty of steps in as I love to walk and enjoy the outside! I will also happily send pictures to update you on our visits!

About: Outside of caring for my own fur babies, I have experience working in a vets office and doggy daycare! I currently have four dogs and one cat. I’ve had animals my whole life. But more recently I have done an internship with a local vet and worked at a 100% cage free doggy daycare/boarding facility. Love and affection are always a must when caring for the dogs, but having some extra knowledge on behavior and basic medical care are just as important. I dog sit for friends and family regularly, but am always happy to have more dogs to watch! I have watched dogs who are in heat before. I have cared for sick animals who require special care. I have also cared for puppies of all ages. During my off days I like to go get a dog from the shelter and take it out for a freedom day. I’ve also been able to take a college course over dog-human connections. I make my own schedule and work from home, so my schedule is pretty flexible! The biggest factor is always making sure I have the capacity to offer the best care for any new clients I take on! Every client has different needs and care will likely depend on the dog or cat! Typically I like to meet new animals with owners present, lots of treats and a calm environment to keep everything low-stress. Some examples of how care may look for pets I watch may be feeding in designated areas for animals who have guarding, leash walk only for flight risk dogs, extra snuggle time for lovers, extra enrichment (frozen kongs, snuffle matts, long sniff walks, etc!) for higher energy pets, slow introductions for more anxious or reactive pets. Overall I always do my best to move at any animals pace and make sure to keep things as stress free as possible! I am happy to honor pet owners wishes but I will personally decline to use E-collars (including bark collars) and prong collars. I am not trained to use them and improper use of these items can cause negative associations for the animal.

About: I’ve had multiple dogs in my house since I was 13 years old. I have became the go to pet sitter for most friends and family. I have experience with senior dogs giving medicine. I also of course can help with any feedings, walks and play time! I will always make time for the pets and people in need of care! I do work but only part time, so we can work out a schedule so you and your pet are comfortable and well taken care of. I can care for pets in my home or yours. At my home I do have a 12 year old son but he has been around dogs forever too he is very kind with them. At my home we do have 3 other dogs and a cat so if you’re home is best for your pet I totally understand that. At your home I would follow your routine to try to keep your pet as comfortable as possible.

About: I’ve taken care of and walked pets for friends and family intermittently for 30 years. Personally, my husband and I have cared for cats for the last 15 (we love our old man!), and we adopted a greyhound going on 4 years ago. So, I’ve worked with all types of breeds (usually small/medium), but am also very comfortable with large (and extremely fast!), breeds, as well. I work in education, so I have a school schedule that is somewhat flexible through the regular work week, and much more open during breaks. I’m a mom, educator, and have had and worked with animals for years. I hope to follow YOUR expectations for your pet—because nothing is worse than pet who feels disregulated and upset by lack of routine and care.

About: I've been entrusted to care for dogs and cats on and off for years! Whether it's daily walks, overnight stays, or just socialization, I'd love to care for your family pet! I currently accept part-time jobs as I'm working on studying for a licensing exam. Drop in, overnight, a couple hours, let me know what you need! I can clean litter boxes, socialize and play with your pets, walk, feed, bathe, administer medication, stay overnight, crate, etc. Thanks for entrusting me with your pet family

About: I love animals, all shapes and sizes. I have two cats and two dogs currently, plus a thirteen year old son. I call my house a mini zoo. I grew up around animals of all kinds, and to this day I'm always trying to bring a new one home. I would rescue them all if I could. I am also a preschool teacher. So, needless to say, I can handle anything your babies can throw at me! Walks, play time, belly rubs or cuddles, I'm ready for it. I'll take care of them like they're my own...Which means they'll be a little spoiled. I know all pets are quirky and have different needs and routines, and I will make sure they get everything they need while you're away.

“Anna has taken the best care of Kelsey and Millie and she’s and available on short notice. She is so sweet and always sends photos with her rover cards. She’s the best!”

“We have used Ben for our dog walking needs for the last few months. He is dependable and attentive. We have even noticed that our dogs behave better when we walk them!”

About: I grew up with dogs and have a deep love and appreciation for our furry friends. Dogs are family in my house. I have experience with training puppies and walking and caring for foster dogs with extreme anxiety. I have a lot of patience and love to give. We are full time wedding photographers amd currently in our slow season. We are home all day everyday with a high energy pup, a big yard, and lots of snuggles to give. We will take of your dogs every need. We live on 5 acres in the mountains, in the basement of a log home. We have lots of space for playing, running, napping, fetch, or long leashed walks if preferred. We never leave dogs unattended and are always home with the pups. I know what's it like to be an anxious pet parent so I send lot of picture updates :)

“It’s hard to find someone to trust with your fur babies but Sarah went above and beyond spending extra time with them while we were away. Our big guy had a slight limp and she cared very well for him. Thank you!”
