About: Personal: Since I was little Verterenarian was always my dream job.. of course things change. I instead went into the Marine Corps and then opened a new chapter in Swim Instruction and Lifeguarding. Back then was when I got my first Cat in 2012. Currently I'm becoming certified in Massage Therapy and hope to move on to animal accupressure and therapy as well, so I'm unavailable between 7:30am and 2pm Mon-Thursday. I've been told by various people throughout my life how I have "the touch" and that they or their pets feel oddly soothed by me. I have even met people and their dogs while on hikes and been invited right there to care for their picky pets(uninterested in humans.) It's always special when dogs come to me for comfort in a room full of people which has happened a few times. One of the most notable ones was an old Sheltie who wouldn't come out from behind the couch (afraid of lightning); I wound up holding her failing hips and hitting some feel-good points to coax her out and back to normal. I grew up with a Husky/Lab/Chow mix and a Yorkie-Poo. Later I shared/trained a MinPin-Chiuwuawa and most recently had my own Jack Russell/Chiuwawa mix and would always get compliments on how well-behaved they were. I'm intuitive, empathetic, and can hit certain spots when massaging them or just transfer energy somehow that seems to really speak their language. I'm an animal too in every good sense of the word! My life experiences have trained me to think on my feet and innovate my way out of any obstacle, with a laugh in my heart and a respect for the waves. Schedule: When I schedule through Rover, it has my full attention, and I won't leave to do other work unless it's specifically OK'd through you (then I may go out just to do a few deliveries and come back within 2 hours... though I certainly wouldn't leave 2 unfamiliar doggies alone whatsoever even if they were friends!) I can rise to your preference of potty and meal schedule, no sweat! If you're okay with your dog staying home during school for extended trips you may need to take, we can set them up in their own room or area of the house. Safety, Trust & Environment: I'd like to introduce my dog Pitunia as an extremely sweet, curious, receptive dude. We take big camping trips with friend's families (dogs, kids) and do exceptionally well. Each animal can perceive various tones in voice or touch or types of play differently, so I do take safety quite seriously. We don't play tug without practicing "LET GO" - I think it's relatable playing with toys and having some accidental nips - that said he really amazes me by Letting Go. I make sure to reward for every good behavior and only teach "no" if I'm distinguishing between "yes.". When we have multiple dogs it's important to feed at the same time and in separate areas. I typically have mine "wait" and he will sit or lay in his area until I set down the food, which comes in handy for multi-dog safety ☺️ Pitunia and I have also completed the Paws For People Therapy Program, where we trained with other dogs weekly to condition for working in hospitals, etc, so he is such a well-trained marshmallow. Manners tend to need constant upkeep though, as I'm sure you probably know with your loveable friend who might Also be: inquisitive eager jumpin and bumpin with affection, tail whippin butt wigglin and kissin!!! So we always keep at it😌.

About: A friend asked me to dog sit for a weekend, then turned into every summer for the past 5 years. I love meeting new furry friends. It is so enjoyable to get to them, gain their trust and learn their different personalities. Most importantly let their owners enjoy their vacation knowing their pups in good hands I currently work full time during the week. The weekends are my best time to do boardings, drops in and walks. Once i’m committed to your pup I focus on just them for the weekend. To try to limit any additional stress or anxiety from a change in their routine with a new friend I like to meet with the parents and the pets before boarding! It makes the pets more comfortable and allows me to hear what their routines. As well as, what they like, don’t like any triggers to be aware of. I have a fenced in back yard so lots of room to play!

“I really appreciated Brenna caring for my two cats over the busy holiday. It was my first experience using a pet sitter as well as my first time leaving my cats. Brenna was willing to come for an introduction and was very responsive to all communication. She also quickly modified the contract when needed. She seems to have a way with animals and they take to her very well. On the pet cam footage, I could see my cat, Bogey, follow her around - so cute! Would recommend!”

About: I am able to give medication and medical shots to pets, I have experience with this as my one dog has diabetes and requires two shots a day. My other dog is a reactive dog as well so I have some experience in trying to handle a reactive dog. I also have had multiple puppies and senior dogs that have exposed me to the different type of care and attention they need, especially when the owners are away. I have experience with dog sitting since I watched my neighbors dogs for years now and have previously worked with one of their dogs that had special needs. I am in the summer before I leave for college so I am home and able to watch the pets at pretty much anytime needed. I am busy with softball tournaments some weekends, but the weekends I do not have that I am around in the area mainly at anytime. I am able to crate a dog, take a walk friendly dog out on walks, feed them, administered medication if required, and play with the dog.

“Maggie was absolutely fabulous with our two senior cats who are set in their ways! She was able to coax them out from hiding and they even accepted some pets from her (that’s not an easy task). She left our home neat and clean. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and respectful - Maggie should be your choice!!!”

“Lila was wonderful, thoughtful and gentle with Sparky. We came home and he was happy and we felt that he was well taken care of. The daily check ins were fun and we felt comfortable and relaxed that he was with a kind and compassionate person. Thank you again for all you did.”

“Excellent and friendly pet sitting experience having Taylor care for my dog and two cats over the Christmas holiday! She provided great care and communication with me while I was away which was a great comfort to me so as not have to worry about anything.”

“Emily handles our high maintenance cats and dogs beautifully!”

“Grace handled an accident from our dog very well, helped out with cleanup while we had help on the way. She’s amazing with our pups and we can’t thank her enough!”

About: I treat every pet like family—with love, patience, and personalized attention. Whether it’s caring for playful puppies, managing the special needs of senior pets, or following specific feeding and medication routines, I’m committed to providing safe, compassionate, and reliable care. I also have experience with crate training, leash manners, and anxiety-prone pets. You can count on me to keep your furry friend happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away. I currently work part-time from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Whether it's regular potty breaks, playtime, feeding, or just some extra cuddles, I can easily integrate pet care into my daily routine. My schedule allows me to be present and responsive to your pet’s needs—morning, afternoon, and evening. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, loving environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and rest. I follow their usual routines and never crate dogs unless it’s part of their training or requested by the owner.

“Dani & Anthony are amazing!!!! I received daily updates and pictures of Remi the whole time I was away. They both made my trip 100 times better knowing Remi was being well taken care of.”

Bryan W.

“They took excellent care of our two cats. Showed up every day, did the food exactly as needed, gave then attention and played with them. No complaints at all and will definitely look to them again if we ever need cat sitting.”

About: I have been responsible for dogs and other small animal care from a very young age and would love the chance to care for yours! I am a former vet tech that primarily assisted in surgeries at an animal hospital that is a lover all dogs large and small. My daily tasks are a wide range to best cater to your pet’s needs. I am employed full time currently and will be available to walk your pups after 6pm during the week and have open availability on weekends to cater to all your pet care needs. I take a positive and friendly approach to animal care whether in my own home or within a client’s home. I am clean, organized and respectful while on the premises. My pet care typically consists of walks or daily exercise, medicine administration, preparing regular scheduled meals for your pet and as many pets and attention that your pet desires.

“Erin was the best. She was responsive from the start and came to meet our boy before we booked so we could make sure he’d be comfortable with her. She took great care of our boy while we were away for a few days. We could enjoy our time worry-free knowing our pup was in good hands.”

About: My wife and I have three loving dogs, with the oldest being 11. However, both of us have been involved in dog sitting at our home and at the homes of our friends and neighbors well before our own dog family. We love giving all the dogs tons of attention and special care. Nothing is better than the love of our furry friends, and we hope to share that with others! My wife and I work full time but have work from home days throughout the week and we make our own schedules so it can be very flexible and can make most days work if we have enough notice. Our dogs get to enjoy the indoor and outdoor environment depending on weather, but regardless they always get plenty of potty breaks! I will do what the owner feels most comfortable for me to do. Whether it is the owners house I am sitting at or if the fury friends come to me, I make sure to honor all requests by the owner to take care of their pups they way they feel most comfortable.

“Felicia was fantastic with our 4 cats! She made sure they received their medications as well. Her communication with us was great! We will definitely ask her to watch our fur babies in the future! Thanks, Felicia!”

Michael A.

“Madison responded very promptly to a near-last-minute request. She was flexible with times of visits. We’d definitely like to have her return!”

Barbara P.

“Great communication and follow through. Did a great job taking care of our cats. Would definitely work with Meghan again. Thanks!”

About: Hi, I’m Matt! Throughout middle school and high school, I volunteered at a local animal rescue, providing care to various dogs. I’ve dog sat for a few people I know personally, providing drop in visits, overnight care and walks. Additionally, I've grown up with dogs, and we currently have three of our own who I’m with every day and love very much. I’m a college student (currently on break from classes) who works part time, so my availability is built around this. This means my week to week availability may not always look the same, but I will leave my schedule open for Rover whenever I can, ensuring I provide your dog with proper care. When caring for your dog in your home, they will always be safe and sound. For drop in visits, I will make sure to follow your dog’s normal routine to ensure their comfort. For walks, I will follow your dog’s pace, while always keeping my hand through the loop of the leash and wrapped around my wrist to keep them secure.
