About: I had a dog for 14 years who just recently unfortunately passed away. Having a furry friend in my life made such a huge impact on me and I love caring for them. I grew up not only having a dog, but pet sitting for many people in my community. I would love to care for your pets as it brings you peace and comfort and it is a joy for me to do so. I’ve been a dedicated pet sitter on Rover for over 3 years with 5-star reviews and plenty of repeat clients. I’m excited to be moving to Poughkeepsie, NY and am now accepting new clients in the area! I treat every pet like family and prioritize clear communication, reliability, and lots of love. Looking forward to meeting your furry best friend! I just graduated college so I will be working on rover full time and will be home all days of the week with your pet! I am moving into a new apartment which is dog friendly with a nice dog park downstairs. I will be doing rover full time and whatever your needs may be I will obtain them:)
“Stefanie was wonderful with our two dogs. The little one can be a handful, especially when she’s on a walk with the bigger one, but Stefanie was a total pro and was able to keep both our pups safe and happy! She was very easy to work with and I’d highly recommend her.”
“Kaleigh is awesome! She spent extra time with my shy pup to be sure she felt comfortable and safe. She takes tons of photos - many of my dog smiling :)”

“Mario was great and our dog loved him. He asked all the right questions about Penny and was very attentive. We’ll definitely be using him again.”

“Susan is very nice, responds promptly and my dogs love her.”
“We needed a dog walker on extremely short notice, and Danielle truly came through for us. She was wonderful—kind, accommodating, and professional.

About: I've had dogs all of my life and and at all stages of lives. I currently have one lab mix Conor, and in April my hound mix Belle, passed over the rainbow bridge. I have decided to start Rover to be able to play with and care for more dogs while I grieve my girl Belle— I would love to love on your fur babies! I have cared for young, old, healthy, sick, etc. dogs throughout my life and will give your pets the same love and care as I would give mine! I am great at following directions and it's super important to me that I follow your routines and pets needs! I am a full time wedding photographer and I own my business so I have a very flexible schedule during the week to meet your pets needs! I will care for your pets, talk them on walks, play time, etc. send you updates and photos and follow any and all instructions to make your pet feel comfortable and in their routine while you're away or busy during the week! Whatever your pet needs, I am happy to do!
About: I had two felines for over 15 years but they recently passed away. They were my best friends, but they hated dogs, which brought me to Rover. I love dogs big and small, from german shepherds to a Maltese, I have never had the living situation to have one. I understand the importance of a routine in a dog's life and want to make them as comfortable as possible, especially when their human is not around. I love taking them out to play in the park or snuggling on the couch. Depending on the dog's needs I will take them for a short or long walk. We will make a plan catered to your specific pet. I have experience with giving medicine. I have experience with walking, overnight care, and in-home pups. I've always wanted a dog, let me give yours all the love I have to share. I have a flexible schedule and keep my rover calendar updated! I am an early riser and like to get moving so if you need morning help I am happy to do so. I try not to be out super late so unless I am doing an overnight the latest I'd do a visit it 9pm-10pm. Unfortunately, I can no longer offer home care in my house. For pet parents, I will arrive within the designated time, greet the pet with a warm hello, check the water to make sure it is clean and full, check the food to confirm the amount eaten, take the puppy outside to relieve itself, and/or change the puppy pad if required. Give the dog some good scratches and pats and maybe a treat if available. If the dog wants to play tug-o-war or fetch I'll do some of that too. I would like to tailor the visit to the dog's routine, so as not to cause any undue stress.

“Melissa was a fantastic help and even came by to take care of our dogs following a snow storm! Can’t thank her enough??❤️”
“Ann is the best! Our little pup adores her!”
About: I have had a dog growing up my whole life. I currently do not have any pets of my own but I watch my families pets. I love to have the company of pets and treating them like my own. I am a teacher working full time. I am able to come home during the day to take pets for walks. I get home in the afternoon and am home for the night. I am in it out of the house throughout the day to care for your animal. I get home early in the day and will hang out with your pet all night.
“Elizabeth has been amazing with our pups!! She made sure to ask a lot of questions the first time we met and even took notes about any specific commands they know or that we practice with them (like 'drop it' and waiting on the stair landing before being leashed). She also keeps a good pace up on the walks so our pups get some good exercise in. They always come back super happy, and tired/ready for a nap:)) I highly recommend Elizabeth to help with your fur babies!!!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals for over 15 years. I pet sat many times as a child and continued through adulthood including, walking, feeding, administering medicine, baths & snuggles! I also volunteered at a local animal shelter as a dog walker. Currently 3 cats and a rambunctious German Shepard/Siberian Husky 1 year old. I’m currently working full time 9 am - 6 pm but have a very flexible schedule and can move my hours around to meet your needs. I have worked with leash trained and non leash trained dogs if you have a fenced in yard. I prefer leash trained dogs for public walks with a standard leash. I love animals, their snuggles & kisses too! I have kids & animals so drool & slobber don’t bother me!

Julie W.
“You've heard that dogs are man's best friend, but you're not aware, until now, that Julie is dog's best friend! As well as cats, birds, rabbits, horses, etc. You name it, she has a soft spot for it. She is always on time, and deep down she'd probably prefer an animal party over a people party. Dont hesitate to trust her w your best friend.”
