“Melissa does so well with sunny. She comes in on time, and made it so much easier for us as my wife had surgery and I was working from home. Highly highly recommend. I never worry where sunny is or what hes up to and he loves seeing her.”

About: I've been watching dogs for over 10 years, caring for pets belonging to friends and family. At home, I share my life with 2 dogs and 4 cats, so I understand the different personalities, needs, and quirks that come with each animal. Whether it's playtime, feeding schedules, or just extra cuddles, I treat every pet I watch like my own. Pet care fits easily into my day since I have a flexible schedule. I'm available for walks, feedings, and check-ins with dogs throughout the day, and I'm also happy to handle litter box care, feeding, and quiet companionship for cats. In a client's home, I follow their existing routine as closely as possible — same food, same schedule, same favorite spots — so the pet's day feels as normal as possible while their owner is away.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs with unique needs, including reactivity and behavioral challenges. I rescued my Australian Cattle Dog when she was three years old and have spent years training her and learning how to safely and compassionately manage reactivity around other animals and, at times, children. Through this experience, I’ve developed strong skills in reading animal body language, using positive reinforcement, and creating calm, structured environments. I truly love all animals and understand that every pet is different. I've taken care of friends and families pets in the past and I always have the absolute best time! I’m patient, attentive, and committed to providing the best possible care while you’re away, making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved at all times. I’m currently in my last semester college, which means I have plenty of time and flexibility in my schedule. Pet care fits naturally into my days, and I can give animals the attention they deserve. Spending time with furry friends is honestly the best way to spend time between and after class! I make sure to follow each pet’s routine closely and respect the rules and preferences set by their owner. I take the time to understand feeding schedules, play habits, and any specific instructions so that everyone feels comfortable and at ease. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and familiar environment for pets.

About: Hello! I've been taking care of pets every since my professors at my university trusted me to dog-sit in their homes. I've always had a love of animals. As a child I spent most of my free time volunteering at my local animal shelter by walking dogs to give them a break and fresh air or training them to help them be more likely to be adopted. As an adult I've worked as a zookeeper (my all-time favorite animal to care for are probably lemurs) and as a high school biology teacher. I've normally utilized word of mouth to grow my pet-sitting business, but since I've recently moved to a smaller town, I decided to test out Rover. I can't wait to meet your pet :) I work from home now so I have an ample amount of time to snuggle, play, and walk your pet! I am currently working from home, which means I can spend ample amounts of time with your pet. Just let me know what you would like to have done and I'm happy to accommodate. Generally I enjoy house-sitting/pet-sitting because it allows your pet to stay in a place that feels comfortable to them. I have my own dog and cat, so if I end up taking care of your pet at my house, we will do a meet and greet ahead of time with the pets to make sure everyone gets along ok.

“Sapphire was an excellent dog walker for our Australian Cattle dog! She was very dependable and kept us well informed with the walks each time. We highly recommend Sapphire!”

About: I have taken care of multiple friends pets for days , if not weeks straight. I've worked at multiple shelters helping out with dog walking and cleaning , and I've also volunteered at functions to raise funds for shelters. The joke is with my faculty I am the resident dog guru. I am a teacher so i'm able to do very early walks starting at 5:30am. I have to be at work by 7:30 am. I am done with school by 4:30, except January- March when I have to be back to director musical practice. If you need someone to how sit your pet. I guarantee that I will try my best to be at the house and not running errands, except to go to work. I'm a big believer in if I'm taking care of an animal in their own home that I need to be at that house as long as I possibly can because that pet deserves the companionship and the freedom to be let out to play. I love taking long walks.I enjoy nature and so taking longer walks with animals does not bother me.

About: I owned a dog for over a decade, and babysat dogs/ cats many times. I worked with animals at a zoo so I’m good at reading them and respecting their boundaries! I work second shift (3-11pm) M-F so check ins would work best for those days. I can still dog/cat sit during the weekdays if you’re are okay with your pets being alone for a full shift, or being watched by my parents (while pets are boarded at our house). My weekends are completely open! I have a large backyard and tennis court. I also live near a very nice bike trail for long walks. I have no other animals in the house. I have ramps for small/old dogs.

About: - has had 3 dogs throughout my life, 2 miniature schnauzers and 1 German Shepherd - has dog watched all different breeds throughout high school - had a dog with diabetes and was blind, knows how to give injections, pills if needed -passionate about loving and caring for dogs! I am able to take care of dogs Monday through Sunday, though times may differ, but usually free later on in the day. Mornings and evenings generally preferred! I am unable to have pets in my home but I am able to walk them, feed them, as well as help them before leaving your home with anything they need to be the most comfortable before you come home.

About: I am training my own dog as a psychiatric service animal and have learned much going through this process. I am not a licensed trainer, but I do have experience in that area, which I enthusiastically bring to each walk. I'm flexible with scheduling and do my best to make things as simple and convenient as possible even if that means scheduling outside of my availability schedule when possible. Additionally, if I have any upcoming dates that I am unavailable this will be communicated well in advance. Availability schedule: Monday= 8am-10am Tuesday= 8am-6pm Wednesday= 8am-6pm Thursdays= 8am-11am (craft fair season), 8am-6pm (rest of year) F= 8am-10am Sat= 2pm-6pm (craft fair season), 8am-6pm (rest of year) My general motto is always leave the space looking better upon leaving then when you first arrived. This applies to animals too. Always leave a pet happier, more content, calmer, etc. after being with them. Have multiple pets? No problem. The more the merrier.

“I found Veronica last minute as I needed help with my pooch as I recover from knee surgery. She won't be my last minute person anymore! She was professional and went out of her way to get my dog out for much needed exercise and a romp on the city bike/run path! Excellent!”

“Kenze is great! My dog loves Kenze. She gets so excited when she comes over, jumps on her, kisses her etc. Happy to have found her!”

“We are fortunate to have Annie on an on-going basis to visit our dog Molly for potty breaks and walks while we are at work. Annie always responds promptly to any communication, questions or booking inquiries. When she visits Molly she leaves a detailed log about the visit. It's obvious that Annie loves pets and she goes above and beyond to give Molly love, affection, attention, exercise and an outdoor break each visit. When Annie is scheduled to visit, we know Molly will receive great care and a needed break and that gives us tremendous peace of mind. We love Annie!”

Julie R.

“Lovia is absolutely great! She is prompt and takes Phoebe on vigorous walks! She really wears her out! Phoebe looks forward to seeing Lovia and so do we.”

About: I am specialized in training all types of dogs! I make sure that the dog is taken care of and is having a blast while the parents are gone! I am very outgoing, active, and good at communicating. I currently work part time as a server so I am available whenever just may have to step away for a couple hours to waitress. I have tons of grass area at my house, and have a ton of room as well for the dog to move around and play when needed!

About: Several years of experience with out pay. I have been around pups and dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds. I am extremely great with animals. I promise to take care of your family member just as I would my own. Mine are most likely better taken care of then most people's children! I am very efficient, caring and wear my heart on my sleeve. I also have fostered animals in need. You will be nothing less than happy with my services. I am used to working with large animals to small animals. I want to be able to make the animals feel like they are at home when they see me walking through the door. I hope this all helps you when considering me.

“My boyfriend and I had a change of plan on Easter and McKenna took buddy out. She answered incredibly quickly and was able to help me take out buddy within an hour! She was so nice and buddy was happy. Totally would recommend and will use her services again!”

About: I have four years of dog care experience working at a boarding facility as well as a veterinary assistant at a veterinary clinic. I've had experience administering medication to dogs, (including insulin) and I have no issue going the "extra steps" to make your dog's care paw-fect. I am currently a full-time college student. I'll be able to walk your dogs daily, but that may change from week to week. I am currently available to dog sit only on the weekends. I can care for your dog or cats by providing a scheduled walk/bathroom/feeding routine. While dog sitting I can provide a high-energy fun-filled weekend or a calm relaxed cozy weekend depending on your dog's personality/needs. No tasks are too complex for me, as I have years of experience in animal boarding providing animals with medication, unique diets, and specialized behavioral needs (I've seen/done it all!).

About: I had dogs my whole life growing up. I currently don’t have an my pets so have the resources and time to give great care. I am active and willing to keep pets active and healthy. I am home and available full time over the summer. I work from home in summers so can be very flexible with the needs and desires of pets. I don’t have a fenced in yard but there is a field with plenty of room to run. I also live close to a dog park. Unless told otherwise, your dog will get plenty of exercise and attention!
