“Boryana did a great job looking after my cat (Spike) while I was away! She stopped in daily to take of him. She’s reliable, responsible, trustworthy & a great communicator. She loves animals and she treated Spike like her own. I highly recommend her to take care of your pets while you are away!”
“Tasha takes our two dogs Cody and Tobey for walks every week. Cody is a difficult one as he is a large yellow lab who is older and grumpy and can be aggressive. Tasha is patient yet persistent when it comes to caring for him. Her pictures and texts about the results of the walk always make my day.”
About: I’ve been working with dogs and cats since July 2020 with minor experience in a grooming salon. I’ve always loved animals and decided to start my own dog walking business in February 2022 and have loved every aspect of it. If you’re interested in boarding, please message me before booking. I enjoy getting to know pets and their families and always make time to go over all your needs thoroughly to ensure you can trust to leave your animal with me comfortably. Your dogs needs are always my top priority and will never hesitate to protect your baby in an unsavory situation. I can administer a range of medicine, including insulin and administer fluids, adhere to any dietary and exercise needs, and love going on long walks at the park. Dog walking and sitting is my full time occupation. I am usually walking dogs from 9am-3pm on a daily basis. I have a few families that depend on me daily and some for emergencies or last minute bookings throughout the week. I book most of my stays in advance and recommend that if I cannot leave your dog unattended for at least 4 hours to look elsewhere (sorry!). My calendar is updated daily, please reach out and say hello! I always make sure to meet with a family before confirming a booking. If the booking is far enough in advance I recommend at least 1 or 2 more visits prior to the families departure just to go over basic info, daily routines, and to let your pet get more familiar with me. I’m always happy to stay over night, am very friendly with neighbors, and am a quiet homebody type. I would never invite guests over while you’re gone and always make sure I leave your home cleaner than you left it. Your trust is most important to me and hope you will consider me when booking your next trip!
About: I have a senior dog and a puppy (the best of both worlds). I also had a cat who unfortunately crossed the rainbow bridge. I have experience with administering medicine for both dogs & cats as well as bottle feeding for kittens. Working on potty training for the puppy, but a little tough with a senior dog in the house (accidents happen a lot). I currently work full time Monday through Friday, but can be available in the evenings once I get off. I also have availability on the weekends. Unfortunately I am unable to offer in home services at my own residence, but I will treat your animal(s) and home with the upmost care and love.
“We had a very good experience with Alex! My kitties are a bit reclusive with strangers but they each came out for a short time and she was able to send pictures to us. That was very comforting while we were away. She showed up on time each day and I believe our babies were well taken care of . Thank you Alex and Rover.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. My experience includes puppies, senior dogs, high-energy breeds, and anxious rescues. I’m comfortable with medication administration and have cared for pets during extended vacations. As a computer science college student, I’m detail-oriented and send regular photo updates to give owners peace of mind. I’m currently working flexible hours as a college student and have plenty of availability for pet care. I can accommodate morning walks, midday visits, evening walks, and weekend care. During the school year, I’m especially available afternoons and weekends. I understand pets thrive on routine and am committed to maintaining consistent care schedules. I prioritize pet safety above all else. In my home, I maintain a secure, pet-proofed environment with gates and safe spaces. At client homes, I follow all specific instructions and house rules carefully. I ensure doors and gates stay locked, provide fresh water, and never leave pets unattended outside. I send regular photo updates so owners feel connected and confident. My background includes experience with anxious pets and special needs animals. I’m comfortable administering medications and following detailed care routines. Emergency vet contact information is always accessible, and I maintain open communication with owners throughout their time away.
“Alyson was absolutely amazing, caring for our cats for a week while we were traveling. She carefully followed our care instructions and gave us detailed reports on each of our cats. She's the best! Thank you again for everything Alyson!!!”

“Ashley is absolutely incredible! This is our second time using her and she’s been so good! We had an unexpected emergency happen with one of our kittens right before we left and she handled it with such ease and her caring nature with our kitties allowed us to feel comfortable enough to go away knowing the issues would be handled and our cats were in great hands! Thanks Ashley ❤️”
About: As a Veterinary Technician I bring clinical expertise and hands-on experience to every pet I care for. That means: • 🩺 Medical support you can trust: Comfortable administering medications (oral, topical, injections), monitoring post-op pets, and recognizing early signs of illness. • 🐾 Confidence with senior and special-needs pets: Whether it’s mobility assistance or chronic condition care, I know how to keep them safe and happy. • 🐕 Behavioral insight: Years in the field give me a solid read on animal body language, helping reduce stress and ensure comfort. • 💗 Heart-led care: Beyond the medical side, I’m all about snuggles, enrichment, and respecting your pet’s personality and routine. • 📋 Reliable communication: You’ll get regular updates with photos and notes, so you always know your pet is in caring, capable hands. 📆 Weekly Rhythm • Flexible Scheduling I plan my bookings so that no pet ever feels rushed or secondary. Overlaps are rare—each furry friend gets full focus. • Routine Health Monitoring As a vet tech, I build in wellness checks throughout the week—subtle changes don’t go unnoticed when you know what to look for. • Updates & Communication I carve out time each day to send photo and video updates to pet parents, because seeing their happy pet in action brings huge peace of mind. • Rest & Reset Time I also schedule downtime—for myself and the pets. Play is fun, but naps and quiet time are just as important for balanced care. When I care for pets in their own home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and respecting the environment they know and love. Here’s how I make sure every stay is smooth, secure, and snuggly: --- 🏡 Respecting Their Space • I follow the pet’s established routines and boundaries to keep their stress low—everything from where they sleep to how they eat. • I make sure to leave the home exactly as I found it (or tidier!), treating it with the same care I’d give my own. 🐾 Prioritizing Pet Safety • As a veterinary technician, I’m trained to notice subtle signs of illness, injury, or stress, and act fast. • I do daily health checks during longer stays, especially for senior pets or those with medical needs. • I double-check doors, fences, and gates during playtime or potty breaks to prevent escape risks. 🔐 Earning Owner Trust • I provide frequent updates with photos and videos, so pet parents feel connected and reassured. • I respect personal property, follow all care instructions, and never bring outside guests without permission. • I’m happy to meet in advance for a “get to know you” session, which helps pets warm up and gives owners peace of mind. ✨ Creating Comfort • Whether it’s playing their favorite playlist, using the same bowl every mealtime, or mimicking a bedtime routine, I adapt my care to what makes your pet feel safe and happy. • I stay calm, kind, and consistent, especially with anxious or reactive animals.
About: A calm, patient, and playful "pack leader" with a lifetime of experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, energy levels, ages (puppies to seniors), and temperaments. I currently work part-time (usually mornings starting at 5 am) and am available for walks and play with your dog most afternoons, some mornings (work schedule varies week-to-week so always be sure to check if I may be available) and early evenings. Walks are tailored to fit your dog's needs, energy level, and enjoyment. Fun and exercise (and, of course, a potty break) is the goal for every one of your dog's walks with me. Whether your dog is "all business" or likes to linger outside and play a bit, I will get to know their needs and plan our time accordingly. As needed, arrangements can be made for additional care (feedings, medicine administration, etc.). If it would make your dog enjoy it more, I can even bring one of my dogs along to join in the fun!

Klever S.
“I can say with complete confidence that Klever S. would be an incredible pet sitter and dog walker. As a fellow dog owner and lifelong animal lover, I’ve rarely seen someone care for animals as genuinely and attentively as Klever does. He currently has two dogs of his own, one of whom is elderly and has been through numerous hospital visits. The patience, dedication, and love Klever shows in caring for him is nothing short of inspiring. It’s clear that he treats pets like family—not just his own, but anyone’s including mine. He has looked after my dog when I went away to Peru for three weeks on a trip and was very helpful, provided updates, and took great care of my dog Boomer! I would trust Klever with any dog, knowing they’ll be in safe, gentle, and reliable hands. Pet parents will be lucky to have someone like him looking after their dog!”

Thomas B.
“To Whom It May Concern at Rover.com, I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Thom B as a dog walker and caregiver through Rover.com. Thom is not only deeply passionate about animals, but he also has the rare combination of patience, intuition, and skill that truly sets him apart in the world of pet care. One of the most remarkable things about Thom is his dedication to animal welfare. He rescued a a dog that we think may have been a feral dog—a case that many would consider hopeless—and through years of patient, loving work, helped that dog transition into a happy, well-adjusted companion. That story alone speaks volumes about Thom’s character, perseverance, and deep understanding of canine behavior. When I welcomed a new puppy, Milo, into my home, Thom was one of the first people I trusted to look after him. Not only did he take great care of Milo, but he also began gently guiding him with foundational behavioral skills that made a real difference in our training. Milo responded incredibly well to Thom’s calm and confident approach, and I credit that early support for much of Milo’s progress today. Thom is reliable, compassionate, and highly experienced with dogs of all temperaments. Any dog under his care will not only be safe but will likely benefit from his natural leadership and positive energy. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you’d like to know more about my experience with Thom. I cannot recommend him highly enough.”
