Madison took care of our 4 pets- 2 large dogs & 2 cats while we were out of town for 5 days. One of the dogs had just had surgery and ended up being somewhat challenging with his bandage. She made sure he was taken care of and kept us up to date the whole time. She went above and beyond! We will use her in the future!

About: I have always loved animals. I treat all animals like my own. I learned to care for cats and dogs(and a variety of other animals) when I was young. Taking care of my own and family and friends pets, furry family members, feeding, bathing, walking, playing, snuggling. I have bottle fed, tended to allergic skin irritations, administered oral medications including chemo therapy. I am looking to make caring for your pets and making a worry stress free experience for you and your pet around your routine/schedule. I have a very open schedule, which makes it easier for me to work around your pets needs. It has worked out very well for me and the pets I have been able to spend time caring for. I will care for your pets in your home. I will care for them like they are my own. Loving, petting, snuggling, playing, walking, feeding making them feel stress free. I will listen to your instructions and follow them for the most personal and relaxed experience with your pet.

Morgan is a fantastic pet sitter! I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my dog and cat were in the best hands. Her communication was perfect, from coordinating a meet and greet through the end of sitting. She followed my pet's routines and gave them tons of love and attention, I highly recommend her! She also sent me pictures and video updates which were super appreciated.

Carley was fantastic. She sent updates and pictures daily and made us at ease knowing that Zoe was so well cared for.! I have never left my dog alone with anyone before so I was a little nervous, but Carly put my fears at ease and took tremendous care of our baby girl-would highly recommend her and will be using her services again in the future

About: Hi!! I’ve had experience with animals for my entire life, and I’m looking for a bit more experience to build up my portfolio for veterinary school. This would be beneficial and enjoyable and open your schedule a bit. I’m currently at my normal job 4 days a week, on top of college, volunteering , and social obligations. I have 3 days off on which I can potentially be available. Im unavailable for any pet services in my own home, but I can commute to you and care for your pet at yours. I can do bathing, cage cleaning, walking, feeding, watering, playing, and any other necessary tasks. I will not stay anywhere overnight, but I can work with your animals for a few hours during the day.

Derek was very responsive and very flexible with how short-notice our request was. Was willing to learn about cat asthma and how to handle it if an attack occurred, which we greatly appreciated as that was a major concern for us. Overall very chill and got some great photos!

About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring dog sitter who truly loves spending time with animals of all sizes and personalities. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just keeping your pup company while you’re away, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. i just joined Rover, but I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have experience volunteering and caring for animals, so I understand how important routine, attention, and trust are when it comes to pet care. I treat every dog like they’re my own, with patience, structure, and lots of affection. I work full time during the week, but I always make time in my schedule to provide reliable care for pets. I plan ahead to ensure I can give each dog the attention, walks, and care they need, whether that’s early mornings, evenings, or weekends. I’m committed to being dependable and making sure your dog is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so the pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I follow all feeding instructions, walk schedules, and any special care needs, including medications if required. I also make sure to give plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship so the pet doesn’t feel alone while their owner is away. I treat each home with respect and keep everything clean and tidy, and I always provide updates with photos so owners can feel confident their pet is safe and happy. My goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both the pet and the owner.

About: I have taken care of pets all my life, by 8 years old I had 5 pets to care for. Comfortable around all dogs and cats. Very much a pet person! I currently work a full time job but I can definitely make a schedule that accommodates to your fur baby whether it be walks, check ins, companion time or whatever else I may be able to help with! I am not offering at home care for pets just yet, not able to provide the space in my current home. hoping to very soon.

About: I’ve been taking care of all different types of animals from lizards to ferrets to turtles and, of course cats and dogs since before I can remember! All of my life I’ve had and taken care of happy and healthy fur babies of my own that I treat with the utmost love, care, and attention so I’ll definitely treat your fur baby like my own as they should be treated. I’m currently a stay at home mom and I go to school online but outside of that I love taking care of my fur babies and other fur babies as well and have free time and availability to do so! My routine consists of starting the day at 7/8am and taking pup for walks, swimming, the dog park etc. and if you choose me for your pet sitter your baby (unless different needs must be met) will accompany us for a fun-filled day!🥰 I can do all day sits or overnight stays at your home. Or if you prefer me to do drop-ins to your home id be more than happy too! Whatever makes you and your precious fur baby happy.:) Note: I do have a 3.5 year old who usually accompanies me with my regular clients. If you choose me as your sitter this is good to note because I will only be able to be solo on some weekends. She has been around multiple different types of animals big and small since she was born. She is good with being gentle and knowing her boundaries but I recognize she’s still young so I can assure you constant supervision will be had for the safety of your fur baby and my baby. At my home, I also have a boxer who loves small dogs as well! They will be in great company. At your home, I will provide your pet and home with the utmost love and care. I will also be sure to provide you consistent updates to keep your mind at ease because I know how worrisome it could be leaving your fur babies behind and you want to be sure they are being taken care of. So I’ll be sure to show you just that!

About: I’ve taken great care many dogs and cats of all ages and sizes since I was 17. I love taking walks, going to parks, playing with toys, and cuddles. I’m responsible and follow directions well for feeding and medications. I’m active and strong with a calming attitude. Even dogs who barely like anyone warm up to me quickly. I’ve sat for dogs at my home and at owners homes, open to either. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. It's easy for me to step away for walks or drop-ins depending on the need. I have a roomy car and can take your dog to a walking path or dog park. I’m athletic and energetic. I enjoy long walks, even during winter. I’ve always wanted to be a dog mom but it's not the right time to adopt yet :)
