About: I have been a Petco certified dog trainer since I was 18 and have dog/house sat many times since! I treat your dog like family and your home with respect! I am flexible! I am available Mondays and Thursdays all day. Saturdays I get off work at 2:00pm I work 9-5 during the rest of the days of the week. But I always need an excuse to use PTO so watching your fur baby won’t be problem! I just need a two week notice Quality time will be spent with your fur baby to make sure they keep busy. Plenty of playtime and mental stimulation. I love using puzzle toys, snuffles and other things to get a dogs mind working!

“Excellent care and flexibility for my pup!”

“This was my first experience with River and I must say it was great. The entire process was easy and seamless. Bill was awesome with the dogs. Riggs and Gibson came back content and obviously exercised. Thanks so much for your help today while I recover from my foot ailment.”

Joe M.

“Amy has been a great help with Glenn Coco. I was stressed about my sister being gone for 3 weeks and me starting my new job that keeps me out of the house for 12 hours. Glenn loved Amy and I’m sure he appreciated a potty break and some company.”

About: I have a lot of experience working with a reactive and anxious rescue pit-bull mix…my sweet baby girl, Abby!! It’s been a process but she’s made huge strides! So I’m quite familiar with having to be extremely vigilant on walks, training treats on hand, knowing when to cross the street to avoid triggers…etc. I fostered an adorable blue nose pitbull puppy! I house trained him and worked with him for a year. That was one of the hardest things I ever had to do…let that handsome boy go to his forever home! I also had a dog when I was growing up. The only way we were going o get her was if I was willing to take most of the care of her and I happily obliged! I was also the pet sitter in the neighborhood. I love all dogs! I’m currently not working so I have quite an open schedule! I’ve been a teacher for 21 years and I’m taking a break to do what I love…spending time with my girl, Abby, volunteering at Save-A-Pet, and helping people out by walking their dogs! I’m not able to have pets in my home because Abby doesn’t get along well with other dogs. I’m happy to do whatever a client wants me to do with their pet! I live a very active lifestyle, so if your pet needs to go for a few miles run not a problem! Also happy to just give scratches and make your pet feel comfortable while you’re away!

About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. I have never had a moment in my life where I was not around pets in some capacity. I spent time with my own dogs and cats as well as working at my sister’s grooming salon as a bather and pet sitter. I was also my friends and neighbors contact when they needed someone to care for their pets. I have been an active volunteer with a local pitbull rescue for many years and spend my free time with the rescue dogs and doing adoption events. I also started volunteering at the local animal rescue by my house as and spend time taking dogs out and helping with fundraising events. I currently have two dogs and one cat of my own that I love very much. My pets stay home with their other pawrent when I am away. I am available on a case by case basis during the day throughout the week but have open availability on weekends for in-home sitting or walks. I can do early morning, lunch, or evening walks/check-in for those busy days to bring you peace of mind that your pets are safe and cared for. Do you need someone to come keep your pet comfortable and happy while you’re out for the day? Or a few drop-in visits? Maybe even just to bring yourself peace of mind? I am happy to help provide that. I take care of all animals as though they are my own by ensuring their best interest at heart. I treat the safety and well being of all animals as a top priority. I truly care for animals and have an infinite amount of compassion and respect for them. I am knowledgeable with different behaviors and walking accessories (ex: different harness and collar set ups) so I can ensure safety for your pet in all situations that may present while on a walk or visit. Please trust that your pets will be treated with absolute care and respect. I will go above and beyond for any animal in my care as well as providing you with the best communication and care for your home and time.

About: Ive never not been around dogs! I grew up with Malteses from 0-18 and as soon as I moved away for school I rescued my Husky mix and raised him from 5 weeks old. I’ve cared for many types of dogs, including rescues with troubled pasts, and high maintenance elderly dogs. I spent countless hours volunteering at my local humane society where I encountered & cared for so many animals with their own sets of needs. I’m happy to administer medicine, work on potty training, teaching basic commands, and anything else your pets might need. I do travel 3-4 days out of the week for work and frequently use Rover myself to find care for my dog. I know the struggle of finding and booking a sitter. While I’m only available part time each week, I strive to keep my availability up to date to make things easier for you. Due to my landlord’s rules, I do not offer boarding in my home. And due to me also being a Dog Mom I can’t agree to do overnight stays in your home as then I’d need to find care for my dog. I’m happy to provide drop ins, walks, and checking on your home. As far as care, I love detailed lists! Tell me everything there is to know about your pet, no amount of information is ever enough to share with me. The more details you share, the more I’m able to provide you the best service for you and the level of care that your pet deserves.

About: Hello! My name is Alyssa. I am a vet tech college graduate, (and planning on getting my certification soon!), and I have had animals my entire life! I have helped my family, neighbors, and friends with babysitting, bathing, feeding, and watching their pets! I have a wide range of experience and knowledge of all types of pets due to my major choice and personal care, these pets include: hermit crabs, fish, dogs and cats of all sizes, birds, rabbits, turtles, and some reptiles! I would love to work with your fur/feather/scales baby! I am a graduate from vet tech school, currently working on passing my certification exam, and am now working at a vet tech clinic! Due to the hours of the vet, I can be busy helping care for our furry/feathered/scaled friends from 7a-6pm, but my schedule WILL vary! Please message me as I can always visit before work, and after, and my times are variable! I have experience with multiple animals at once, and I know a lot about many animals! If you have an animal I am not familiar with I will do the research! I believe in good/positive reinforcements, never negative or physical force with them!

“We have had Christy walk our dogs a couple of times now and she always takes great care of Finn and Merlin. She has been a great help.”

About: Hello! I'm Sarah ♡ I am currently on Rover to assist in my weight loss journey. Being able to walk dogs a few times a week will be a great way for my to stay active and have fun while doing it. A little about me, I am currently back in college as a computer science major with goals of being a software engineer in 2025. I had two beautiful dogs who were honestly my life so I completely understand how important an animal can be to somebody. I don't take that relationship lightly. I have volunteered regularly at animal shelters and anytime I'm around dogs I'm instantly happy. I absolutely love animals. I am a responsible, caring, and organized college student who wants to be able to lose weight doing something I love. Your pet's safety and comfort is my number one priority. Please reach out to me if you think I'd be a good fit! I'd love to meet you and your furry friend! I'm currently a full time student with a full time internship. I can commit 10-12 hours/week on pet care. Ideally I would like to be able to walk 5 days a week for 30 minutes minimum since a huge reason for my return to Rover is to aid in my weight loss efforts. Safety is a huge priority for me. I want to always maintain the safety and integrity for your pet as well as myself. Always know that when I'm in the care of an animal it's with genuine love and care. In terms of dog/house sitting- I'm currently have no availability for that. I adored pet sitting in the past and found it so much fun! However, unless the dog is not incredibly active I don't have the time to properly pet sit. Being a full time student with an internship prevents this unfortunately.
