“Sofia is such a sweetheart and wonderful with my senior pup! She took the time to come meet Skippy a couple days prior to our booking and he immediately went right up to her which he’s usually reluctant to do. I’m very picky about who I have watch Skippy and I feel so safe and at ease when Sofia is taking care of him. I highly recommend Sofia!”

“Trusted cat sitter and highly recommended! We had an stress-free vacation knowing our cat was in good hands with Andrea. We received lots of regular updates and Marley got tons of attention and cuddles while we were away.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and caring for them has always been something I truly enjoy. About a year ago, I got my Doberman, which motivated me to learn even more about dog behavior, training, exercise, and proper care for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I love spending time with dogs, playing with them, keeping them active, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m familiar with feeding routines, basic obedience training, walks, playtime, and reading dog behavior/body language. My own dog is trained, and working with him has helped me become more patient, confident, and attentive with dogs in general. I understand how important it is for pet owners to trust the person caring for their dog, and I will always treat your pet with patience, love, and care like they’re my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my weekly routine because I currently have a flexible schedule and a lot of free time to dedicate to dogs. I spend most of my time with my Doberman, so daily walks, playtime, training, feeding routines, and giving dogs attention are already part of my everyday life. I’m available as early as 6am to 7pm if needed I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for pets in my home. I have a fenced yard for supervised playtime and exercise, and I also have a friendly Doberman who enjoys playing and socializing with other dogs. I always make sure pets feel comfortable and secure while in my care. I can follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, and potty routine as closely as possible to help them feel at home. If needed, I also have a crate available so your dog can have their own safe and quiet space to relax. In a client’s home, I respect the pet’s routine and environment while providing attentive care, playtime, walks, fresh water, meals, and lots of attention and affection.
“Carey was great! She was professional and communicated very well. She also sent lots of photo and video updates of our cats, which made me feel at ease as I traveled.”

About: I have two dogs a Yorkie puppy named Max and a pomchi named chewy who is 11 and they are my pride and joy in life. I currently go to community college for liberal arts and I work part time at Aramark as a concession stand worker for about a year or so. I have a soft spot for all animals but mostly dogs I would be happy to give your fur baby a lovely experience that owners will love.
About: I have a large dog of my own for reference he’s a german shepherd, pitbull, mastiff mix. He is a big boy as you can imagine and I have had him for 9 years and know how to handle dogs from small to big. I am not scared of dogs in the slightest and can handle large dogs on walks. I work part time as a server so I have plenty of extra time on my hands. I love to get out and be active and what better way then to walk pets in the mean time. My dog has his own fenced yard to get activity in but we also take him on morning and nightly walks. He gets enrichment all the time but his favorite is to take a long nap which fits him well since his name is spud like a potato.
“5 Stars – The Best Pet Sitter We’ve Had! We couldn’t be happier with our experience! Marisol was absolutely amazing with both our cat Gin and dog Makii during her house drop-in visits. From the moment she met them, it was clear she had a genuine love for animals, our usually shy cat even came right up to her, which never happens! She was super attentive, gave both pets plenty of love and playtime, and kept everything incredibly clean and tidy. We came home to happy pets and a spotless home, which made the whole experience completely stress-free. If you’re looking for someone reliable, thoughtful, and truly great with animals, Marisol is the one. We’ll definitely be booking her again!”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for dogs and my commitment to treating every pet like family. I understand that every dog has unique needs, whether they’re an energetic puppy, an active adult, or a senior dog who requires extra patience and care. I’m attentive, dependable, and focused on making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I enjoy maintaining routines, providing plenty of exercise and playtime, and giving lots of affection. I also believe in regular communication, so you’ll receive updates and photos for peace of mind. My goal is to create a positive experience for both you and your dog, ensuring they receive the same care and attention I would want for my own pets. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I currently work part-time, which gives me flexibility to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding schedules, potty breaks, and companionship. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to. Whether your dog needs exercise, cuddles, or simply someone reliable to keep them company, I can make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve while you’re away. I also prioritize keeping pet owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their furry family member is in good hands. I provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for every pet in my care. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions they provide. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while keeping their environment clean and secure. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel connected and reassured while they’re away. If caring for a pet in my home, I ensure they have a comfortable space to relax, plenty of supervised activity, fresh water, and lots of positive interaction throughout the day. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and at ease, whether they’re staying with me or I’m caring for them in their own home.
“We would give 10 stars if I could! Our Annalie & Thi Ctook care of our two puppies for an entire week, and we couldn’t be more impressed. She was always on schedule, right on time, and kept everything running smoothly while we were away. When we got home, our dogs were in excellent condition—happy, well-adjusted, and clearly very well cared for. You can tell she truly loves what she does, and it shows in the way she treats the dogs. Don’t waste your time with anyone else—she is absolutely worth every penny. Highly, highly recommend!”

“Sarah checked in on our two cats twice a day for a week. They both loved her. She sent us pictures of the cats every time she visited and always let us know how they were doing. She followed all of our directions and made great friends with our cats. We will absolutely be booking with her again!”

About: I've owned and taken care of dogs my entire life. Around age 13 I started dog walking and by 15 I was constantly pet sitting. I'm a full-time college student with classes Monday through Thursday from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Outside of my school schedule I have a flexible availability and can provide reliable pet care throughout the day, evenings, and most weekends. When caring for your pets I guarantee a safe and clean environment. Whatever the pet needs I'm willing to accommodate to ensure a seamless stay while your gone.
About: ~Trying to save money for my wedding~ What sets me apart is the level of personal attention I give every dog. I don’t just “watch” pets — I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I pay close attention to routines, personalities, and little details so your dog feels at home, not stressed. I’m also the go-to person in my family and friend group for pet sitting, because they know their dogs are always in caring, reliable hands with me. From elderly dogs to young and active dogs, I adapt to each pet’s energy level and needs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work full-time from home, which allows me to give dogs consistent attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I live in an apartment complex with great walking areas, and I know many owners can’t always get home during the day for walks — I’m happy to take that off your plate. I’m available for drop-ins and quick daytime walks, making sure your dog gets exercise, bathroom breaks, and some extra love when you can’t be there. I understand how busy life can get, and I’m here to help make things easier while keeping your pet happy and cared for. In my home, your pet will be in a calm, comfortable environment with lots of supervision since I work from home. I have a small, low-energy senior dog who mostly relaxes on the couch during the day. He can be kept separate in another room if needed, depending on your dog’s comfort level and personality. I also have a small patio space and take dogs on regular walks around the neighborhood or apartment complex for exercise, fresh air, and bathroom breaks. I always prioritize safety, gentle introductions, and making sure each dog feels secure and at ease.
About: My skills are only taking the dogs a bath and taking them on walks, and I play with them as well I give all my attention to them. I start my morning early and that’s when I start my walking, then I come back and have my breakfast, so I will have plenty of time to care for a dog. The care I would give is just giving them attention and making sure their area is always cleaned. Taking them on walks and playing with them!
About: I grew up having birds, dogs, cats, turtles, and rodents. I currently have my own senior poodle who I trained to give his right and left paws distinctively. I used to work at a humane society as part of the kennel staff. There I would clean the cages twice daily, take the dogs out to run in the yard, feed them 3 times a day, and take them out for enrichment and socialization. I currently volunteer helping marine birds, marine mammals, and baby terrestrial mammals get as healthy as they can until they can be released. Other than that I am available so I can provide your pet with the care they need. I can crate your pets if necessary and make sure any gates or doors are properly closed. I make sure things that pets are not supposed to eat are out of reach as well.

“Jackie was very professional and communicated daily during check-ins along with a photo. Everything went perfect! It was so nice to not have to worry about my kitty while I was away. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”

Riverview West pet parents share their Rover experiences
Nadine did a wonderful job dropping in to care for our pets while we were away on vacation. She fed our dogs and cat and administered medications they need. Our dogs loved going for walks with her each visit, and we really appreciated getting her updates (with photos). We were able to enjoy our time away knowing that our pets were in great hands!

We would give 10 stars if I could! Our Annalie & Thi Ctook care of our two puppies for an entire week, and we couldn’t be more impressed. She was always on schedule, right on time, and kept everything running smoothly while we were away. When we got home, our dogs were in excellent condition—happy, well-adjusted, and clearly very well cared for. You can tell she truly loves what she does, and it shows in the way she treats the dogs. Don’t waste your time with anyone else—she is absolutely worth every penny. Highly, highly recommend!

Bryce is amazing! I can’t say enough great things about him. He took exceptional care of my senior dogs, who require extra attention and special care, and he handled everything with patience, kindness, and professionalism. While I was away, he kept me consistently informed with updates, which gave me complete peace of mind. It was clear my dogs were well cared for and comfortable the entire time. I’m extremely happy with his service and will absolutely hire him again. Highly recommended!
Normally, when we don't have someone able to check in on Deejay when we're gone for longer periods of time, I notice he gets stressed and really lonely (crying and sometimes gets respiratory infections/sneezing). However, after Kristine spent extra time to keep him company while we were out of town, he was brighter and less sniffly when we came back! She was also extremely responsive with sending pictures and updates and extremely attentive with questions to go above and beyond our asks. I'll definitely need to book with Kristine every time now.

Maya was such an amazing sitter for our cat. She went above and beyond, not only taking care of his food, water, and litter, but also playing with him for extended periods of time. She provided frequent updates and took so many wonderful photos and videos that she shared with us so that we could feel totally at ease. We would highly recommend Maya and would book her again in a heartbeat!
