About: I have been house sitting and pet sitting for a while now. And I really do enjoy my work. This is my first time using Rover. Dogs and cats have always been a big part of my life. I help my partner take care of his boarding and daycare clients. I'm a big fan of dogs and cats. They love me too. I'm a former social worker. But these days I cherish the time I get to spend with my pet clients. I have lots of time to offer in this regard. Always up for a snuggle. I enjoy walking and playing with your pups. I'll treat them as if they were my own!🐶 I have a fully fenced yard. Lots of room to roam. I have lots of time to offer your pets. I'm looking forward to meeting you all.

About: I have been around animals my whole life. Mostly cats and dogs. I have learned to understand their behaviors really well. I even have a special place in my heart for the seniors & the sassy ones. I am happy to help! I work from home part time so I can be flexible with pet care & have time to play/give attention to your pet. I am available for boarding after 3 pm on weekdays & I am pretty flexible for weekends. I work from home and am able to walk your dog as much as they need should you need to board them at my home.

About: With 10 years of experience caring for dogs and 5 years of experience with cats, I’ve honed my skills in providing compassionate and reliable pet care. I work a full-time job with the flexibility to work from home when I want. But during the weekends, I am free all day typically. I will follow any instructions provided from you. I’ve had the experience before when a sitter does not communicate with the owner, so I will make sure I communicate with you.

About: From a young age, we’ve nurtured a deep love for animals, caring for a wide range of pets with tenderness and compassion. We’ve always felt a strong connection to the animals we look after, seeing them as beloved companions. One of our proudest achievements is raising our dog from a puppy, guiding her through training to become a well-behaved, affectionate adult. We’ve also had the privilege of caring for a neighbor’s senior dog, providing comfort and companionship. This experience reflects our genuine passion for animals and our commitment to their happiness and well-being. We work remote with flexible work hours and have a dog of our own. She often goes for walks and of course requires some belly scratches. Our home has a fenced in yard and we personally have a 8 year old cocker spaniel that loves to play but then also likes to chill. She matches the energy around her. We do not have dog crates, if your fur baby is crate trained, we request you provide a crate for their stay.

“Very responsive, quick, and would book again!”


About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of experience and dedication to animals. I’ve raised and trained dogs from puppyhood through old age, including a 100+ pound Labradoodle, managing everything from training to senior care. I often care for my brother’s 115-pound German Shepherd and Great Pyrenees mix, so I’m comfortable with large, energetic dogs. Additionally, I’ve lived with and cared for cats for the past three years, giving me well-rounded experience. My passion and patience ensure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Schedule As someone who works from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent and attentive care for your pets. I can accommodate walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day, ensuring your pet’s needs are met on time. Whether it’s mornings, afternoons, or evenings, I’m available to tailor my care to your schedule and your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety is my priority. I provide a secure, loving environment and handle all situations with care and experience. Trust me to offer reliable, attentive care for your pet’s needs.

“Wonderful sweet girl! Hire her.”

“Michelle was great with my 2 English mastiffs! I was working alot of hours and was feeling pretty bad about my dogs being home alone all day. Michelle would take them both out and about, one on each side of her. My mastiffs are NOT fast paced. They would rather lean into you and stand still than "walk". But Michelle learned their personalities quickly and she is now one of their favorite humans. I would definitely recommend her for all of your pets needs!”

16. Amanda & Matthew K.
“Amanda has watched my dog, Jeebie, on multiple occasions, and I cannot recommend her enough! Jeebie a seven-year-old who likes to act like she’s a big dog, but definitely has some issues with separation anxiety when I leave her with certain people. This never happens with Amanda watching her. Amanda treats my dog as if she is her own and send me photo updates of them playing and cuddling. She is incredibly reliable and always shows up at the agreed upon time. If you are someone that treats your pet like a member of the family, you want a pet sitter who will do the same - well look no further… Amanda is that someone! 10/10 recommend and will continue using her in the future!”

“5 Stars – Outstanding Pet Care! Rohit took excellent care of Buster, my Great Pyrenees-German Shepherd mix, and I couldn’t be more pleased with his service! Buster is a big, active dog who requires patience and attention, and Rohit handled him like a pro. From the start, Rohit was communicative, friendly, and reassuring. He kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind knowing Buster was happy and well cared for. It was clear he treated Buster like his own, and Buster came home calm, happy, and clearly well-exercised! I highly recommend Rohit to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. I’ll definitely be booking him again in the future. Thank you, Rohit, for taking such great care of my boy!”

20. Dawnn N.
“Dawn N. has been a foster for our rescue organization for several years and she is wonderful on so many levels. She's great with the dogs and loves them for who they are. She has handled some who had some baggage being rescue dogs, but she managed them calmly and lovingly and kept her sense of humor. She has been VERY dependable and cares very much about the rescue mission. Her little beagle, Radar is very important to her and she takes really good care of him - and not just his medical needs. Dawn provides a really good home for Radar and her doggy visitors and she has a great yard which provides interest for them - not just a blank place of grass but a lovely space to explore and get both sun and shade. If I didn't have so many, I would board my dogs with Dawn for sure!!”
