“Dalvane is the best! This was the first time we left our little guy home when my wife and I traveled, and we couldn't have felt better about our experience with Dalvane. His love for dogs is clear. Woofy (our dog!) took to him right away (which isn't typical with new people) - and Dalvane was incredibly responsive, responsible, and caring. We got lots of pictures of them on walks, hanging out in the apartment together, and having a good time. We felt totally at ease knowing what good hands Woofy was in - and we will 100% be working him Dalvane again. We feel lucky to have found him!!”


“Susan always does a fantastic job and I can go on vacation knowing that my cat will be well taken care of! She sends us daily pictures and videos and is always in touch if she has any concerns. I highly recommend Susan!”

“Lauren has been amazing with our three doodles. They clearly love their visits with her and it is so nice to know someone has eyes on them during the work day. We definitely recommend working with Lauren!!”


“This guy is amazing! We never had a worry in the world while we were on vacation...since we got pictures and detailed summaries of the days he spent with the cats! I believe the cats miss him already! We'll definitely ask him again to take care of the cats! Thanks Glenn!!!!!”


About: I have had pets all my life, including dogs, cats, turtles, lizards and fish. I used to consistently volunteer at an animal shelter, and overall am just extremely passionate about animals and their wellbeing. I began to pet sit (animals other than my own) about 6 years ago. I was referred by a family friend, and ever since then, whenever I home from college I am watching someone's pet! This has become less often since I am not home a lot as I am a full-time college student, but I would like to get back into it. Especially because I miss my own furry friends at home! I am a full-time college student, and have a part-time job. My schedule is pretty loose, though, so I will likely always have time to walk your dog, feed your cat or whatever else you need! I have dealt with a variety of animals throughout my life, including ones that are scared or a bit too energetic. I am a patient person, and am willing to make sure your pets are comfortable with me in whatever way.

About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life and just recently raised a puppy of my own. He is a very well trained dog, so I have some fresh tips and tricks if needed. I am confident I will take wonderful care of any dog- any size and any age! New to rover but not new to taking care of dogs! I’m currently taking a summer break- I recently finished up a residency and pharmacy degree, so I am looking forward to having some time off this summer. I have a few trips planned, but otherwise I will be home every day to be able to provide the best care for your pups. I have a securely fenced in yard along with a young pup who just turned 1 years old. He is very friendly and would love to have a friend to play with during the day. I also have a cat who mainly just sticks to himself during the day- please no dogs who are not safe around cats.

About: For a decade I’ve been caring for and helping families with their pets. Ranging from farm animals to house pets, it’s important to read their body language and keep their routine constant. I have experience in early childhood education as well as Behavioral Therapy that is utilized in zoos all across the nation. I can’t wait to meet you furry family member(s)! I am currently getting enrolled in school remotely to further my credentials in SLP. In this “hurry up and wait” stage I’m looking forward to meet and assist taking care of the glue that holds your household together. I offer walks, playtime, bathing, light training experience and grooming, feeding, medical assistance, and newborn assistance. My schedule is open until I begin school in the fall.

“Rachael was great to work with. She was responsive and able to troubleshoot my automatic litter box while watching our cats. I would be happy to have her watch them again.”


About: I am an enthusiastic animal mom with over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, mice, leopard geckos and freshwater aquariums. Currently, I have 2 large, high energy pups, so I have great experience handling multiple dogs, dogs who need to focus on a job while walking, as well as strong doggos with squirrel impulse. I am very detail oriented and adept with multiple step health care routines for small animals. Being the caregiver to leopard geckos and freshwater fish makes me aware of several factors including, but not limited to temperature, ph, and nitrates that need to be consistently monitored when looking after aquariums, amphibians and reptiles. My love for all animals and experience as a pet owner makes me a great choice for your dog walking and pet sitting needs. :)

About: I have been a volunteer at Lake Humane Society for 2+ years, and I also worked on their adoption team for over a year. I have also been pet sitting for friends and family for many years now, and I also own cats and fish!! I am currently available for pet sitting Monday through Friday, and I can also manage some weekends as well, and if needed I can do some holidays! I have experience with dog crate training, experience with giving dogs and cats medication, and I am also able to walk dogs, let them outside in a fenced area, or put them on outdoor leads. I also have lots of experience feeding multiple animals at a time as well.

About: I have taken care of pets since I was a kid. From my own pets, to family members' and neighbors' pets. I do have an AS degree in Animal Health and before college I was a dog groomer. I enjoy making furry friends. I am currently work remotely for myself. Therefore, I have plenty of time to play with and care for your pets. I am available anytime. When caring for your pets in your home, I will stick to their regular routines and schedules, while providing them some extra time and attention.

“Randy was absolutely wonderful at taking care of our pets while we were on vacation (a dog and a cat). He was communicative and took many pictures during his drop ins. Our dog ended up peeing on the upstairs carpet multiple times while we were away and he took the initiative to clean it up for us. Randy also came out a week before we left to meet the animals so the dog/cat could get used to him being around for the week.”


“Did a great job dropping in on my cats while I was out of town. Sent me lots of updates and pictures and really felt like they took good care of them. Will book again next time I'm out of town!”


About: Animal enthusiast on a mission to provide purr-fect care for your fur babies 🐾🐶✨✨ Passionate about pet sitting with a long history of creating a safe space for all. I've taken care of of fur friends for as long as I can remember and continue to do so through Breezy Pooch Care! I work from home so i am very flexible and have the ability to be very attentive and provide frequent potty breaks when needed, so my routine does not have to change much to fit your families needs! If I am boarding / house sitting I need to be set up by 8AM and my work day is done by 5pm. Each pet is different and will have different needs. I do my best to adhere to those needs. inside the home pets are free to roam around designated areas, which are kept clean and pet friendly. I never take pets outdoors without their leash as anything could happen, we also have other pets in the area so to avoid any issues i always keep those in my care close by!

“Kai'Lee is wonderful!! Super friendly, on top of it, punctual, dependable and provided excellent care and support for our dog while we were away! We definitely recommend and would love to work with her again.”


About: I have potty trained numerous puppies/dogs, I Know a lot of good trails and pet parks to make sure your dog is active. I have volunteered at three shelters since i was 16 years old. And i just love animals 😛 I am Currently a student and I also work part time, so I will be available whenever you need me or wherever you need me. I always have extra crates , toys and treats(obviously if the puppers parents allow if they can eat the treats) I know a good dog park as well. Im very active with my own dogs so i will be sure to be active with yours.

About: Hi there! I’m a full-time nurse, a single mom to a sweet 4-year-old boy, and a proud pet mama to a playful poodle puppy and two adorable kittens. I know how important it is to find someone who will treat your pets like family — and that’s exactly what I offer. Our home is full of love, energy, and animal cuddles, and I bring the same care and reliability from my nursing profession into pet sitting. Whether your pet needs attention, medication, or just a cozy space to relax while you’re away, I’ve got it covered. I offer: • Drop-in visits for dogs or cats • Dog walking • Pet sitting in your home (or mine if it’s a fit!) • Medication administration, senior pet care, and support for special diets My home is clean, kid- and pet-friendly, and I’ll always follow your routines closely to make sure your pet feels safe and secure. You’ll get updates and photos to give you peace of mind while you’re away. Let’s connect and talk about how I can help your pets feel right at home — even when they’re not! I’m a nurse and I work full-time at night. Days I’m available I may not be available for the full day to car for your pet. But I will do what I can and hopefully we can make it work! I also have a 4 year old that will most likely come with me on most visits/walks. We can discuss this as well! I’m no Cesar Milan, but I do have some basic understanding on dogs behavior and how to approach them. With that said, for everyone’s safety, during walks I will do my best to avoid new dog interactions on walks (you also never know what the other dog may be like!), and would like to meet your dog prior, if possible if I will be doing drop in visits while you are away. I can also provide pictures if you would like.

About: I’ve taken care of various animals professionally and personally for around 7years. I’ve taken care of rabbits, cats, and dogs of all sizes. I enjoy taking care of pets and look forward to doing it more. I’m not currently working so I’ll be able to stop by anytime without any interruptions; allowing me to give your animals my full attention. Your pet and their schedule will be my number one priority! I take care of pets by scoping litter boxes, taking dogs on walks, making sure they’re fed, and most of all to keep them company while you’re away.

Kelly M.
“Very detailed oriented and such a kind heart. Find her to a very hard worker always willing to put in the extra mile. Highly recommend Kelly for dog walking services.”


Emily L.
“Em carries a great reputation for being an expert dog & cat caretaker. In her professional life, she worked for the local humane society for a 1yr+ alongside 2 years as a dog walker volunteer. During her time there, she was praised for being incredibly helpful in getting animals adopted. In her personal life, she has taken in a number of rescue cats and dogs, several of which are elderly. No matter how busy or hectic her day is, she still manages to always be on time to give her animals medication and attention, never opting for the easy way out. Em's flexibility with pets is astounding - from her walking a bulky, excitable, 90lb dog with ease, to her getting my howling, loud-mouthed husky to calm down, to her patiently giving her elderly and frail cat medication. I cannot imagine a better pet caretaker than Em. She is timely, knowledgeable, passionate, open-minded, flexible, and carries impressive levity that lights up a room. I highly recommend her and I believe she'd be excellent as a pet caregiver.”


Dorothy K.
“Dot has been caring for my pets for several years. I am always satisfied with the care she provides. She truly has a love for all animals and is a gentle kind soul. I have a little Yorkiepoo named Oreo and a German Shepherd named Willy. In addition, I have a orange tabby cat named Fred. When I have to leave them and Dot id available to watch them, I never have to worry. She is great about sending updates and pictures and my pets are excited to see her. I would recommend 110% to anyone who needs a pet sitter.”

“Patrice has a huge soft spot for our furry friends. From my point of view she treats her pets as her own children. She has had her new dog Khaos for maybe 2 months. He has he own room filled with toys a pillow to lay on and enough treats to last home at life time. She goes the distance for the animals that come in contact with her and has endless love for her furry buddies.”
