“This was my first time using Rover so I was a little nervous, but Rio was wonderful. Great communication and cute photos of my 13 year old Shih Tzu. No complaints. Will definitely request Rio in the future!”

About: Hi! I’m Casey and I have three dogs and three cats. I would love to help you care for your animals! I’ve gone through obedience training with each of my own dogs and love incorporating it into walks. I’m a substitute teacher and love spending my time walking dogs. I usually choose to sub a couple days a week and walk or do drop ins the other days! When walking dogs I make sure to check the weather and watch the pups body language. I also know walking on a leash can be difficult for some dogs and I have worked with my own dogs on pulling and reactivity.
About: Hello pet parents my name is Octavia (i prefer to go by my middle name)! I HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH MORE THAN JUST DOGS AND CATS SUCH AS CHICKENS AND DUCKS !! I am military and I am able to access base when needed. I am 21 years old and I LOVE animals!! Due to my Army career I live in a loft with my wife, my dog. Taking care of animals is my calling! I have now been in the Army for three years. I joined to further pursue my college education and become a veterinarian in the future. I am extremely passionate about the care that animals receive. I have volunteered for lots of shelters since i was young to learn all about animals and their needs, so it is my duty to ensure that your fur baby is well taken care of. Being that i worked with a lot of trained animal handlers, I have experience with animals who have many special needs such as diabetes, aids, cancer, seniors, etc. I also have experience with many different ages and breeds of dogs/cats. I previously worked at a groomers and volunteered at a pet shelter. At both establishments I fed the animals, bathed them, played with them, and took them out for restroom breaks. | love to stay active so I go on a daily walk/run and I would love for your pet to accompany me. I have plenty of room in my schedule to spend quality time with your pet. This would include going to the park, play time, and even cuddle time! While you are gone from your sweet fur baby, I will be available for communication 80% of the time. I am more than happy to send updates on how your pet is doing upon request. Anything that makes you and your pets comfortable I am more than happy to do. The less stress there is for you and your fur baby the better! I am here for your needs!! I am extremely excited to be pet sitting again as l did this before I joined the military. I work from 9-5 for the time being until my shift changes but am truly excited to be able to rush home and care for your pets. I will always keep you updated on my schedule being that my hours change every 3 months. I have a dog and a kitten right now and I constantly do research on their diet and behavior and their well being to make sure I am giving them the best possible life that they deserve.
“I am so grateful for Carolyn! She answered me so fast with a last minute booking and was here in less than 20 minutes! She was so accommodating and sweet! I would highly recommend!”

“I booked Cooper for a 3-day walk with my dogs. It was really cold that week. On day 3, it was snowing, I told her that if the roads were bad, we can just cancel the walk. She came and walked the dogs that day. Really love her!”

About: I grew up with a dog for about 10 years. We rescued her and raised her as a puppy. I have some family who have three dogs, and we help take care of them sometimes, so I know a good amount about dogs, how to walk them, etc. I have some time occasionally when after work either in the mornings or evenings and sometimes look for something to do so I figured I could fit this into my schedule and help some people out while making some money in the process. I help take them for walks, I pet them to make them happy and comfortable, I feed them and give them some water, I take them outside whenever they need to go to the bathroom, I even play with them whenever I can
About: I always insure that pets are comfortable! I’ve taken care of old cats and dogs, and I when they are old like that it’s important to meet their needs first, as most of the time they need a lot of guidance and help. I am currently going into online college, so most of my day is free! I often sit down and watch TV or play video games, but I mostly enjoy writing and drawing in my free time I personally like to ask owners how there pets are in the company of others, as well as if any weather bugs them! The comfort of my pets, and owners is always my number 1 priority! I want to make sure that they are comfortable around me, and I never approach any animal until I’ve let them sniff me, it’s important that they trust me to be around them.
“Brandi came and walked my dog every day for several weeks while I was waiting for hip replacement. A definite plus for me. She varied her times around weather and the fact that my doggy gets hot if the sun is too much (she came in the evening).”
About: Have been a Pet Parent for 40+ years. I just retired fulltime and have been without a pet for two years. Decided that instead of getting another pet, that I would do pet sitting. I love animals and what is a better way to experience new type of breeds. Will LOVE your pet as if they were my own. THANKS FOR READING MY PROFILE AND ANXIOUS TO MEET YOU AND YOUR PET!!!!! RETIRED AND OPEN FOR SITTING, ALMOST ANYTIME. WOULD PREFER TO NOT SIT LATE AT NIGHT BUT HAPPY TO DO OVER NIGHT. HOLIDAYS ARE ALSO OPEN. I LIVE IN AN APARTMENT COMPLEX AND PLENTY ROOM TO WALK. IF YOUR DOG LIKES DOG PARKS, WILLING TO TAKE THEM THERE ALSO. I PREFER NOT TO CRATE UNLESS NEEDED WHEN ALONE.
“It was truly a pleasure to have Alyssa walk our girls on a regular basis. She's responsive, flexible, but above all, reliable. We thank you for being an outstanding Rover!”
About: I grew up around animals and have had my own ever since. I lived on a farm in the country and loved every minute! Now living in the city I am only around 2 pets and I can’t get another because of my apartment restrictions. Getting to dog sit or walk even them would be so fun for me! I have a cat so I am taking care of him daily. My roommate also has a dog so I get to help with her too. I have a a bunch of pet toys, food and water, bowls, and beds! The pets are allowed to be on my bed and can cuddle up in blankets. I can put my cat in my roommates room along with her dog if the pet I am caring for cannot be around other animals. I usually sit out food and water just so if they are hungry they can eat whenever and I will just refill whenever they are scheduled next.

About: I like dogs because they encourage me to be active. Keeping pups clean and pretty is fun for me because my dog doesn't like water. I treat all dogs like children. I walk 2 Rottweilers everyday Monday thru Friday. Also, I walk and play with a Golden retriever named Hershey Monday thru Friday. I have stayed at my sister's house, she has a pitbull, blue heeler and lab mix. I have kept my parents Japanese Chin and Pekingese. So I have lots of experience with many different breeds of pups. I have never met a dog that I didn't get along with or that didn't like me. Dogs are like people and should be treated that way. I enjoy spending time with cats too. I am not a reptile person.
About: Hello & thank you for stopping by my page! I have been around pets my entire life and couldn’t imagine my life without them. I am a dog & cat lover and I have 2 of each personally. I am a stay at home military wife with children. For drop in services, I do ask that my son be allowed to join me as my husband is in the military and his schedule is … very inconsistent 😅 My son is 3 1/2 with autism but when he goes to drop ins with me, he stays in his stroller the entire time and loves seeing all of the pets I get the pleasure of taking care of. I am very flexible and open about my schedule and always make sure that I can make my schedule fit around the needs of my clients and their pets needs as well. I always do a Meet & Greet visit with clients and their fur babies before the services are needed to make sure that your pet will like me & my children but also to make sure the client and I click as well. During drop ins, I am known to scoop poop (or sift a cat box), if needed I vacuum around the cat box as well. I clean water dishes before refilling and make sure your pets are taken care of to the same standard and expectation that mine are treated. I know going out of town is stressful for you and your pet so I am here to help make that smooth for everyone :)
About: I’ve had dogs since childhood and consistently walk, let them out and play with them! When your pets are with me they get quality love. I work remote so I’m able to let them out on a regular basis. I also walk them 1-2 daily depending on what is needed. I have a large fenced backyard and plenty of space in house to roam, nap, and play. It’s a pet friendly environment and set up for pups.
