About: Hi! I'm a loving and attentive pet sitter who will treat your fur baby like family and keep you updated with plenty of adorable photos along the way! As a longtime foster and pet caregiver, I’ve worked with animals at every stage, from energetic puppies to mellow seniors. I’m experienced in leash training, crate training, and potty training, and I take a calm, consistent approach to help pets feel secure and confident. I’ve cared for dogs and cats with special needs, behavioral quirks, and anxiety, always with patience and compassion. I also live with a friendly, dog-tolerant cat named October, so I’m comfortable managing peaceful multi-pet households. Whether it’s structured training or cuddle time, I love every pet like my own! Pet care naturally fits into my routine—I love building my days around it. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m available for morning, afternoon, or evening visits and walks. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, extended care, or overnight stays, I’m able to adapt to your pet’s needs and keep them on a consistent routine. Animals thrive with structure, and I’m happy to provide that while you’re away. I provide a calm, pet-friendly home with plenty of cozy spots for lounging and play. I have one sweet, mellow cat named October who’s dog-tolerant and used to sharing her space with visiting animals. My home is clean, safe, and quiet, ideal for pets who need a low-stress environment. I can easily crate your dog if needed, follow feeding and medication instructions closely, and will always respect your home and your pet’s routine when doing visits or drop-ins. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priority.

About: For over 20 years, I’ve had the joy of sharing my life with a menagerie of furry, and even scaly friends. From playful pups to sassy cats and the occasional adventurous lizard, I’ve honed the art of being a pet whisperer, treat-giver, and belly-rub specialist. With two decades of experience, I’ve learned to navigate everything from puppy potty training and cat hairball diplomacy to creating enriching habitats and handling the chaos of “zoomies.” My pets aren’t just animals—they’re family, and I’m dedicated to giving them the happiest, healthiest lives possible. Beyond the snuggles and slobbery kisses, I’ve also built a reputation as a trusted source for advice and tips, helping fellow pet lovers find joy in their journey. Whether it’s rescuing, fostering, or simply loving, I believe life is better with paws. I’m currently working part time and own a business so I have plenty of time to schedule one on one time with your furry family members. I have owned and had pets for over 20 years. I can crate train kennel train. I’m capable of doing whatever it is that your pet needs..


“Anushka is an amazing dog walker! :) She is great with my puppy with separation anxiety. He loves his long walks with her and returns home exhausted. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her.”


“Kelsie is the best! She always takes such great care of my dog and is very responsible. My dog is shy and can get nervous around people she does not know, but she has warmed right up to Kelsie. Kelsie is reliable and very communicative. I know my dog is in great hands every time Kelsie stops by to take her on a walk. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dog sitter/walker.”


About: Ever since I was young I've had dogs in my life. I truly love animals and caring for them. Since I work full time during the week, its not the best time for me to have my own dog; that’s why I would love to take care of other peoples dogs! I love to workout so I will exercise with your dog and give them the proper amount of exercise based on breed, health complications, etc. I will give your dog loving company, feed them, take them to go potty, and everything else you wish for me to do. I'm hardworking and I have a great upbeat energy. I love every dog so size does not matter, I also work with different breeds so I’m familiar with different breeds. Breeds I’ve had experience with are Pit bulls, Yorkies, Shih Tzu, Labs, German Shepherds, Boxers, Great Pyrenees, Maltese, American Bully’s and more. I work full time during the week, I’m currently remote so my work schedule is more flexible, depending on the week. Sometimes I have to travel for work so I will do my best to adjust my schedule accordingly. I will confirm if I work a particular holiday on my profile. Right now I currently live in an apartment with my cat, which means it’s preferable I stay at the clients home. Nevertheless, I always make sure I put things back after I use them. It’s important the client returns to their home in a good manner. I always make sure the pet is safe and comfortable just as if their owner was there. If the client lives in an apartment I will take the dog out to an appropriate area to use the restroom. Some apartments have dog parks/areas but I always ask the client if their pet likes them or not.


“Nicole is amazing! Treats my dogs with love and takes her time. My puppy is so high energy and she’s so understanding and tries to work with him. This is why i keep coming back to her, I can have peace of mind when she’s taking care of my babies.”


“Esmeralda has been exceptional with her patience and willingness to be adaptable in working with our 2 dogs. Both have big trust issues and are very nervous to allow new people around them. She has devoted a lot of her extra time to make sure they get and feel comfortable with her. That being said, she has relieved a lot of stress and concern on my end for I want my dogs to feel as little anxiety and fear as possible as well as benefit from having the ability to go outside and go for a walk and get some fresh air. I hope Esmeralda can be a part of our household as long as possible and enjoys the dogs as much as I enjoy having her help.”

About: I work full time but I am exploring other opportunities to do things I love to replace corporate America. I am a proud mom of a 12year old boy and have a LOVE for animals I am teaching him. I am a fun outgoing person but sometime defensive with humans. I have always had a natural connection with animals and when I lived in NY would take in dogs and find loving homes for them. Part of taking in dogs required me to sometimes to rehabilitate due to malnutrition, abuse, and neglect. You can expect that when your furr babies are in my care they are being treated with respect and love and will become part of my family no matter how long or short their stay. I am currently working from home, and I am available weekdays and weekends for round the clock care. I can accommodate most pet routines with ease.

Whether visiting for walks, feeding, or playtime, I prioritize their well being and happiness during every visit.

About: My experience from pet sitting in Chicago to Houston has allowed me to become familiar with a variety of pets, requirements and specifications like medicine often needed for a given pet. I mold my schedule around the pet I am caring for. Being a pet owner who travels I often use Rover myself and expect the same care I give to pets to be given to mine. I can be overly cautious which may not always benefit me in daily life but has been a major asset when taking care of the pets of others. Our backyard is spacious but also fences and locked allowing me to keep an eye on them at all times and I proceed with extra caution when out walking especially when encouraged to interact with other dogs. Instincts serve me extremely well in this space and I revert to them often.
