About: I've had animals most of my life from puppies to pound mutts and full blooded and senior dogs. I make sure to encourage play and positive training. I currently work from home so I spend lots of time with family pets, old roommate animals and friends pets. Lately it's been waking up to 3 small dogs my parents have. I make sure to follow any rules stated by the original owner. It can range from crate training, socialization, cleaning, walking or using the client's home.

About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds since I was a little girl. I’m offering to play with, walk, and care for your pets when you are busy. Throughout our time together I will send thorough updates as well as photos. I also have experience volunteering at a humane society, working at a vets office, and working at a grooming salon so I understand dog behaviors and overall care. I am doing this part time during weekdays and select weekends as I am a full time college student. I will be available as needed, as long as I have a few days of warning. I currently have one beagle with high anxiety and look after five other dogs of different breeds and sizes at varying times. I am invested in insuring your pet is comfortable and happy while also following any restrictions or rules that you have set forth. Otherwise its belly scratches, snuggles, and play time galore!

About: I’ve always had a passion and love for all animals. I would bring a great energy and meet any needs for any animals and of course keep owners updated with messages and pictures! I’m currently working at a local gym as a fitness staff member. It is a 1-2 day a week job and would be very flexible to change around for any pet sitting opportunities! I currently have a 3 year old golden retriever that I treat like my own child, he is my pride and joy. He loves going on car rides and going by the dog park and playing with other dogs.

About: I've grown up with animals all my life. Im comfortable with anything, from cats to all sizes of dogs. My family currently owns six dogs and six cats, ranging from elderly to special needs, so I'm definitely up-to-date on my skills! I've worked as a veterinary technician assistant for a emergency veterinary clinic so I'm comfortable with administering medications including under the skin injections and pills. Depending on the temperament of dog (or cat!) I'm more than willing to provide a pedicure during my stay! I also aim to provide check-in's and walks in addition to overnight care. I'm disabled and unable to work a normal 9-5, but your pet will recieve top quality care and plenty of attention. That being said, my schedule is very flexible. For most if not all jobs I'm available seven days a week with Thursdays and Sundays being my most tricky. Mid-mornings to early afternoons normally work better for me for check-ins and walks.

“Katelyn was amazing! Sent us so many pictures of our dogs and kept us informed during our trip. 100% recommend her to anyone!”


“Danielle was great! I highly recommend for any dog sitting.”


“Katelyn was truly lovely! She has a wonderful disposition & our pups loved her. She took excellent care of them & respected our home. I will absolutely welcome her back any time.”


About: I have years of experience with animals going back as far as 5 years old. I've grown up with cats, dogs, fish, and even different types of birds. I've always loved teaching animals new tricks, cuddling, even watching them get the zoomies outside. Animals can be a lot of fun when you let them experience different environments and aspects of life. I also had a job at a pet boarding place. This consisted of being outside with the dogs in runs, playing with them, cleaning the rooms and more. I have 2 dogs at home. One boxer and one german shepard. I work a lot so when i'm home I try to spend as much time with them as I can when I am home. One of the things my german shepard likes to do is chase water from the hose, so during the summer time, we do that a lot. On the other hand, Tyson is a little bit older but he still gets the zoomies, he likes to playfully growl outside but then when he's done, he likes to sun bathe lol. To include all this, I also have 2 guinea pigs who need lots of attention. I try to bring them out of the cage by 1 everyday to spend quality time with them because they're very loving. They enjoy being outside and eating the clover, they sure do appreciate when they get their veggies! They need their nails trimmed about once a week so I do keep up with that. Bathing them isn't a high priority since they just like cats and bathe themselves but a bath once every 3-4 months will be perfect. Our dog tyson, tends to get scared of storms really easily, so when this happens I try to comfort him as much as possible wether that's putting on his jacket, letting him up on my bed because he's scared and needs some cuddles.

“Diana is wonderful! Benji loves her. She took excellent care of him while we were away. It’s great to know that he will be safe and happy with her, should we travel again without him!”

Kenslie R.
“To Whom It May Concern, I’m thrilled to recommend Kenslie R. as a pet sitter and dog walker on Rover.com. As Kenslie’s close friend, I’ve seen firsthand their genuine love for animals and dedication to their care. Kenslie is the person everyone turns to for pet care in our community. Pets naturally gravitate towards them, showing excitement and trust. Kenslie is not only affectionate but also highly responsible, ensuring each pet’s unique needs are met. For example, Kenslie once cared for a neighbor’s dog, Max, who needed daily medication and a strict feeding schedule. Kenslie handled Max’s routine perfectly, providing the necessary care along with companionship and playtime, which noticeably improved Max’s mood. Kenslie is reliable and handles unexpected situations calmly, always prioritizing the pets’ safety and comfort. Their punctuality and communication skills offer pet owners peace of mind when they’re away. In short, Kenslie R. is an exceptional pet sitter and dog walker. Their passion for animals, responsibility, and compassionate approach make them an ideal choice for Rover.com. I wholeheartedly recommend Kenslie to any pet parent seeking trustworthy and loving care for their furry family members. Sincerely, [courtney burgess]”

As someone who loves their fur-babies more than anything, I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”

“Raelyn is my girlfriend and used to dog sit for my family when we would go on vacations or visit my sisters in college. She has not once disappointed my parents. She always kept them fed and watered and took them out when needed. She would play outside with them and gave them the upmost attention. She loves animals including her dog Parker. I think Rover is right up her alley.”
