About: I’ve had dogs my whole life from small to big, Terriars, Rottweilers, German Shepard, etc. I currently have a yellow lab named Rory. I have experience with all age dogs from puppies and elderly dog. I currently work full time 8-4:30 on weekday so I would be willing to come early morning, late afternoons, or nights. I am free anytime on weekends. I have an overly friendly Labrador at home who is very well trained. He goes on a walk at least once a day if not more but absolutely loves his big side yard where he gets to sunbathe! He has his spot on the couch where he naps most of the day away.

“Olivia was an amazing sitter. She took time to introduce herself to Sophie, our Jack Russell. All of the directions we had on our list were followed to a “T”. Sophie warmed up to Olivia and played, too. I would highly recommend Olivia -she is punctual and sent photos and updates with each drop in. All in all she did a great job.”


“Nate took good care of my 2 senior cats while I was away on vacation. He did daily drop in visits, litter box, fed/watered, gave 1 daily medication, and spent time with them. He also sent pics and gave me updates. My house was clean when I got home. Nate was prompt to respond on the site, we met in advance at a public eatery to get to know each other, and he came to my house after to meet my cats and get a basic run down on their needs. He was very pleasant, easy to talk to, and my cats took an instant liking to him. I would highly recommend him to others and will hire him again in the future! It's so hard to find good, reliable yet reasonable pet care. Thank you so much Nate!!!”

About: Hi neighbors! 🐾 My name is Matthew and I’ve been around dogs my entire life and currently have a 100lb Labrador who’s not just my pet—he’s my best buddy. We walk, hike, play, and explore every day, rain or shine! I understand how much your furry friends mean to you, and I’ll treat your dog like one of my own—with love, patience, and plenty of exercise. Whether you need regular walks, help on busy days, or just want your pup to get some extra attention, I’m here to help! Reliable. Experienced. Dog-obsessed. Let’s chat! 🐶💬 I currently work full time from home but I’m very active so I keep my dog active with me. We are up at 5am everyday going for runs/walks. On breaks we always get outside to enjoy the weather and allow him to use the bathroom if needed. After work if I’m not busy I love to take him to the dog park or on another walk around the neighborhood. So I’m available every weekday from 5am-8am and after work from 6pm-9pm I have a big open yard that I have an electric fence for my dog to go out as he needs with or without me. When leaving the yard he gets his harness put on and a leash with poop bags. We walk on the sidewalk at all times. We stop and sit before looking to see if we can cross the road.

“Lori is excellent! She is patient, kind, thoughtful and treated my pup and home as if it were her own. My boy loved his visit and I loved knowing he was in good hands when I was away from home. Highly recommend Lori as your pet sitter!”


About: I have been caring for dogs since as long as I could remember! As a child my family had 4-6 dogs at all times! Lots of experience with Small & Medium stature pets. My husband & I also have a 10 year old, 45lb, Mini Goldendoodle who is sweet as pie & who we adore! I am able to take your dog to the park & for walks, play with them at my home & take on frequent potty breaks since I am always home watching them. I have lots of toys here for them to play with & treats (if allowed by owner). I can administer the required medicine for your dog as well. Experience in giving pills and giving insulin shots to diabetic pups! I’d love to watch your fur baby! I have two young children ages 5 and 2. Dogs must be able to get along with children. I am a stay at home mom to two young kids and I am available during the day while they are in school or even before and after school drop off! As long as they are well behaved I allow dogs on furniture and they would receive lots of love and attention here! We love animals!


About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I was the little kid that visited the neighbors just to see their dogs. I have dog sat on many occasions. I am very detail oriented and love abiding by schedules. I do not mind the size of the dog either. The more dogs you have the better. I will gladly meet the dog(s) beforehand to see if they are comfortable with me. Other pets are also welcome too! The most animals I have watched at one time was three dogs and one cat. I am not opposed to light cleaning for the animals when necessary. Any routines you have for feeding or walking will always be followed. If you have any questions please ask me. I look forward to meeting your pets!

About: Having pets since I was 7, I have long understood the importance of animal care. Since I was in high school, friends, family, and neighbors have asked for my help in pet sitting and house sitting. Over the years I have taken care of horses, goats, sheep, rodents, reptiles, insects, fish, birds, and of course dogs and cats. Needless to say, I am not afraid of any animal and believe all living creatures deserve the top quality care. I have two years of experience majoring in Wildlife Care, and have taken many courses in animal husbandry. This, along with my Dog and Cat first aid certification through the Red Cross, has made me fantastic at caring for the medical aspect of animal care. I can administer medication and handle emergencies with a clear head and a focus on the animal's well being. In the past, I have taken care of my own elderly/disabled dogs as well as those of my friends and family. This includes dogs in hospice care that have needed to be carried. While I have less experience with puppies than I do elderly dogs, I have raised and trained my own current dog from 1 y.o.. I am not afraid of the mess or energy level of puppies and puppy teeth don't bother me! I am a barista and am returning to school in the fall. With odd hours for a regular job, I know I can lend my services to someone who needs it! I take care of animals in the way the owner sees best, whether that's yard time, or walks, or both! I have no problem crating a dog, cleaning up after an animal, and giving medications or food.

About: Hi, Everyone! My name is Cara. Thank you for visiting my page. My strong admiration for animals has only grown more with the more animals I meet and as a result, it brings me genuine happiness. It is a rewarding experience to be able to take care of any animal that needs it while their owner is away. Since starting Rover in August 21’, I’ve had 10+ repeat clients and have established great friendships with families/people in the community as a result. I have a M-F teaching position 8am-4pm. A half hour lunch long lunch where I can leave to care for your furries in the middle of the day depending on the distance. Dogs will be crated when I’m not home. A little history: I grew up with a miniature schnauzer (Zoie) whom towards the end of her life, needed constant supervision and was administered medicine 3x/ day, grooming/washing daily. I was always there to comfort her until the end of her life and spoiled her beyond belief. Myself and my family provided care to my mini schnauzer for over 12 years. As a child, I never had a dog sitter to send updates, pictures/videos for my sweet Zoie when my family would travel, so I strongly understand the importance of quick and reliable communication/sending updates while you’re away. Experience - administering medicine/injections - cats, big dogs, small dogs, senior animals, special needs pets, pigs, cows, chickens. -exercise/run with your pet -hospice/end of life care (Repositioning every hour, hand feeding, massages, cooking packs, frozen bone broth snacks on warmer days, the list goes on) Pets and animals deserve to be spoiled but most importantly, they deserve to be loved. I have a white fur baby (Minnie). Shes a loyal, sweet and well behaved dog, I’m so lucky and thankful for her every day as she brings me so much happiness. She stays at home with her other best friend, my significant other while I’m away. If you think I’d be a good fit for your fur baby or have any questions or concerns, I’m here to answer them all and hope you will consider me! I work M-F through a nearby school, being able to provide supervision to animals while I am home. Check my calendar for the most up to date availability, please 😌 House sitting: Provide overnight care, 24/7 care, other responsibilities to care for your home while you are away (watering plants, picking up mail, cleaning, etc.) Always love to send picture and video updates 2-3x/a day of your furry one to ensure you are comfortable and know that your animal is well cared for and happy in my care!

About: I’ve had numerous dog and house sitting jobs since I was a teenager. Mostly when owners were away on vacation. So I was responsible for every aspect of dog care, from meals and walks to cuddles and play time! I lived in a very close knit neighborhood so my neighbors and their dogs were to me extended family. So I treated them as I would my own. I have a senior dog now who’s 14 and a 3 year old beagle, so I’m kept on my toes, and understand the extra love that comes with a senior dog. I work from home and have an online shop, so my schedule is extremely flexible. Weekdays I can drop by, feed, walk, and visit almost anytime from morning until about 5. I’m an early morning person so that wouldn’t deter me from coming by. I don’t offer in home care in my home at the moment. I do crate my younger dog at times so I’m familiar with that. I have a safe and sheltered environment for my dogs at all times.

About: Owned two dogs and two cats. 7+years experience at an animal shelter. Bathed and washed dogs and cats. Fostered kittens. Administered medicine. HUGE animal lover! Stay at home mom who is available full time. Has child care while working. Flexible and free. Would love to walk dogs around neighborhood. Air conditioned home. Own a cat. Litter box trained. Indoor only. Bathed daily. Clean litter box daily. Brush cat daily. Plenty of toys in home for her. She’s an older cat but friendly.

“Amber is an experienced and knowledgeable petsitter. She has done great job petsitting my cats and I am pleased with all she has done for me! She has a special ability with animals and they respond well to her! Thank you!”


About: I’ve been taking care of dogs bigger than me since I was little lol! I’ve owned rotties, Dobermans..and now I have my own 2yo Labrador! I’m very well experienced with dogs, I know they require attention, love and exercise and I promise you I can provide that! I currently work full time 4 days a week, 7am-6pm Sunday-Wednesday. But would walk dogs after work! I’m available Thursday to Saturday from anywhere after 8am and before 10pm! I have 70acres of land up the road from me they can roam, or be on a heavy duty leash if needed. Theres, rivers, ponds. And I have crates incase they needed to be crated!

About: I am committed to only offering the best care and comfort to your pets. Right from starting as a pet sitter, I’ve taken care of a senior dog with issues like incontinence, and adhering to a schedule that fits his needs best. I have experience in administering medication and using a diaper wrap to fit his needs at night. Requirements like this do not throw me off of offering your pet the best love and care a sitter can give. I am a college student during the week, so my main pet-sitting hours will be open during weekends, unless there’s an early morning short visit that comes my way. When visiting a client’s home for pet care, I always make sure the pet is comfortable and no one (especially cats) move or knock over objects that can disrupt the functionality of the home. I’ve had experience living in someone’s home before while pet sitting and am always committed to leaving it as pristine as when I arrived- even when some pets were committed to having a bit too much fun

Victoria K.
“Victoria has been a wonderful caregiver for my German Shepherd, who normally struggles to trust new people. Her calm and caring nature quickly won him over, and now he lights up every time he sees her. She’s reliable, attentive, and truly loves animals.
