“Emily was great with my two dogs. Each day they were excited to see her. They came back tired and happy. She was very friendly and always on time. I highly recommend her and will use her again.”


“Sydney has been wonderful with my year old Labrador baby. She always arrives when expected, is super patient with my pup and is an all around sweetheart. 💯 Would recommend to anyone, Sydney is awesome 😎”



“Look no further, these are your people! No, seriously. Ann is great with animals and Im so thankful to have found them for my boy. I have been recovering from 19 surgeries within the past 2 and half months so I have not been very active and can't really take my pup on walks atm. My poor dog who's a GSD and full of energy was beginning to go stir crazy and desperately needed a good walk. Im in a leg cast and don't have a lot of help so I turned to ROVER for the first time. I was incredibly nervous about having a stranger walk my dog. I read through profiles and reviews and decided to reach out to Ann. They have experience with big strong dogs and My dog is a leash puller. Ann and her family responded quickly and she came over soon after to take my boy on his first ROVER walk and first walk by a stranger. She reassured me they'd be alright and really put my mind at ease. They both did great. I was so nervous she wouldnt want to walk him because of his bad habit but thankfully she took him for a nice, long, much needed walk. My pup came back tired out and much happier. I instantly knew I made a great choice with Ann. She is very understanding, kind and great with animals. Highly recommend them and will continue to book her whenever Koa boy needs a good walk.”


About: I grew up raising a wide variety of Dogs. I spend my free time playing and training my dogs. I'm a gentle person that loves to cuddle all pets. Having the opportunity to watch,walk or spend time with your pet would help aid in a long time dream I have to work with animals. I have a bigger dog who is friendly, adopted a 12 weeks old puppy who is now 5 years old,a cat also a rescue that we adopted and recently adoped a 12 week old puppy who is now 6 months old. We have Lots of parks with walking trails to adventure around with your pet. I welcome all pets big small young or old they will all be loved.

About: I love dogs and taking care of them and playing and walking them. I have cared for farm & domestic animals as an owner and caretaker. Former horse owner so i am well versed in feeding/care of your animals. I would love to take care of your furry family. I am semi retired. I am available for home stays, drop-in visits, and walks for your dogs or feeding and taking care of other animals. In your home I aim to keep the space clean and safe for your pets. I am very regimented and like to keep things on a schedule so I have no problems following your time request.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs my whole life, and I recently graduated with a BS of Animal Studies. I have experience volunteering at animal shelters. I’m currently looking for a part time job so I may have limited availability in the near future. Currently, I have extremely open availability and can petsit, walk, and/or check in on your furry friends anytime! I currently live with my mom and sister’s dogs and I am often the one to take them out on walks or watch them while my mom or sister are working. I always try to follow the pets energy - if they are wanting to play I play with them, if they want to lay around and take a nap I’ll let them lounge around. I also have a snake, but caring for her looks very different from caring for a dog or cat. From fur to scales, I always try to show my pets plenty of love and attention!

About: I’m compassionate about humans and animals, have a very giving heart, why Emmy Dog is a rescue and has been my whole world for years now!:) I’m recently semi retired from corporate America so have ample flexible time to work with and care for your fur babies on your particular schedule!:) Emmy Dog is more well behaved than some toddlers from the consistent care she’s received from me over the last few years she’s been with me!:)


About: I have been working around all sorts of animals for 8 years now. I have worked in the Veterinary field since 2017. I am able to walk your pets, give medication, do physical therapy, and anything in between. I have always and will always love all animals! I am available most of the time. I will take care of your fur babies just like my own as long as I don't have any other reservations. :) I have a 2 bed apartment. There isn't a yard but I am more than happy to leash walk at my home or play in your backyard with your pup or even go to the dog park!

About: Because we love dogs and care for them as they are family, we do require vaccination records. Rabies, parvo/distemper, bordatella at the very least. We also want to know your dogs have flea/tick protection. We do not accept bookings for dogs who are not spayed/neutered. Distemper: Distemper is a viral disease that is often fatal, affecting the respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts and often the nervous system. Hepatitis/Adenovirus: A vaccination against adenovirus type 2 protects against both adenovirus types 1 and 2. Adenovirus type 1 causes infectious canine hepatitis, a viral disease that affects the liver and other organ systems, causing serious illness which is sometimes fatal. Adenovirus type 2 causes respiratory illness and may be involved in the development of kennel cough. Parvovirus: Canine parvovirus is a viral disease that causes severe vomiting and diarrhea and can be fatal. Parainfluenza: Parainfluenza is a viral disease affecting the respiratory system; may be involved in the development of kennel cough. I have a fairly open schedule. I work part time on my own schedule so my availability is flexible and open other than a couple things here and there. I try to stick to the individual families schedule when I am sitting in someone's home. That way the pets in the family have to deal with the least amount of stress possible.

I am experienced with all sizes of dogs (mini yorkies to mastiffs!) and actually have a span of sizes in my own home. I am also experienced with rescues with complicated backgrounds, history of abuse, and reactivity. I understand that reactivity does not make a dog mean, and I am comfortable with dealing with that! I currently am a student with only one class per week, so I have plenty of time to play with your furry family members! I can come as many times a day as needed, stay overnight, or just come by to feed! Whatever you want/need! At my own home, all of my pets are inside pets, and sleep in the bed with me!
