About: I have a sweet beagle that was rescued 7 years ago. I am fully responsible for his care, including feeding, walking, bathing, nail trimming, etc. I always check him for ticks after visiting a park and know how to safely remove them. I enjoy going for long walks, especially in summer, so would be glad to give your dog exercise. My kids have had goats, rabbits, chickens, turkeys, and ducks, which are all fun to play with, and I would be glad to care for your less-typical pets, if needed. I have even cared for lizards and snakes. I am a teacher, so have loads of time available in the summer. During the school year, I am available most weekends and after 4 on weekdays. I always keep dogs on leash when walking them...you never know when a squirrel or other dog will come by or how they will react.

“Debbie is the best Rover out there!! She is such a gem of a person and my dogs LOVE her. She is there for us last minute. We are so grateful to have found her❤️”

“We hired Megan to check in on our puppy while we were out for a long afternoon, and she was fantastic! She was prompt with communication, very professional, and most importantly, incredibly caring with our pup. Having Megan there gave us real peace of mind knowing our puppy was in good hands. She sent photo updates throughout the visit, and we could clearly see how happy and relaxed our puppy was. We would absolutely recommend Megan to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter!”

About: I love all kinds of animals and have experience taking care of dogs, cats, horses, turtles, snakes, fish, lizards, frogs, and more! I enjoy training puppies and dogs and am happy to practice any of your dog's specific commands while at home or on walks. I grew up with dogs, and lived with cats, a four-foot long lizard, 20 fish, and two turtles in college. I would frequently pet-sit for friends with dogs or cats and I always really enjoyed it. I have experience with drop-in and overnight stays. I am currently free in the evenings, and on weekends to take care of, play with, and walk your pets. I am working regular hours Monday through Friday and love the idea of caring for, and cuddling your animals at the end of the day. For pet-sitting, I am happy to play, train, and walk dogs (or cats and other animals), and/or I can just sit with them and give them cuddles and attention while you are away. I always try to keep the animals’ spaces tidy and leave your home as clean, or cleaner, than I found it. Non-smoking homes only.
About: In your absence, I will treat your pet as a member of my family. He/she will be as important to me as they are to you! I have rescued and cared for pets of all types for friends and family. I am a lifelong animal lover, and this is something that I truly enjoy doing. I have had pets my entire life from cats and dogs to rabbits, hamsters, fish, birds and even a baby lamb. Separating from your pets can be a difficult time when you are trusting their care to another individual. I will fill the gap for you while you are gone, with consistent reliable care. I am able to administer medication, walk/exercise your pets or just visit and play with them. I will keep you updated, if so desired. While you are gone, it is my goal, to allow you to rest easy, knowing that they will have daily loving care. I am currently working from home part time and i am able to make my schedule weekly. I will set my schedule around the needs of your pet. If there are any fluctuations (scheduled appointments) during my time with your pet, you will know in advance I care for my clients pets with the same love and attention that I care for my own . Each animal has its own likes , dislikes and routines. It is my job to meet the needs of that pet on the schedule that they are used to. When I am caring for somebody else’s pet, it is my top priority to make sure that they are cared for the same way you do. Separation can difficult for them too, I will ease that as much as possible by providing what they need.

About: I currently have a 4 year old mini Australian shepherd. My experience includes watching a puppy overnight, helping train a deaf dog, and taking neighbors dogs on walks.

I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home where dogs are treated like family. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh water, meals on schedule, and lots of affection. I follow each dog’s routine and make sure they feel happy and relaxed while they’re away from home.
About: I treat every pet like my own—with love, patience, and respect. What sets me apart is my experience with a wide range of pets, from high-energy puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a slower pace and extra care. I’m comfortable administering medication, handling dogs with special dietary or mobility needs, and maintaining consistent training routines if needed. Whether it’s a long walk, a quiet cuddle, or playtime in the yard, I tailor every visit to your pet’s needs. I also provide regular photo updates so you can feel connected and worry-free while you're away. Your pet’s happiness and safety are always my top priorities!

“I booked Octavia for a last minute walk with my pup and everything was fantastic! We had good communication, she was on time, and she gave a great summary at the end of the walk. I’m adding her to my roster of walkers ASAP.”

About: When it’s time to go outside it’s time. Clean up areas where the pet(s) have pooped @. Please make sure they are trained with handling strangers. Thank you ! Currently, I am currently working part-time after almost a 9 months of unemployment. I have time for pet care services. Just a American putting effort in the American Dream for myself. Since I will take them out to poop, pee & food I’m going to be diligent on that note ! Close & lock doors is a must !
About: I’ve cared for animals of all kinds since I was 10 years old. Friends, neighbors, and family have always trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets as if they were my own. I also have hands-on experience giving medications and vaccinations from my time working as a veterinary assistant. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets both inside and outside the home and have experience with boarding, dog walking, medication administration, and in-home visits for feeding and watering. Every animal I care for quickly becomes part of my extended family, and I truly enjoy every moment spent making them feel safe, loved, and spoiled. I currently work from home, giving me plenty of time to provide attention and companionship throughout the day. My schedule is flexible and is very convenient for those who may need a little extra attention. My fenced yard offers space to play, and my two friendly dogs are always ready to welcome a new friend. If needed, I can also easily crate your dog for comfort or routine.
About: I have been a dog-lover as far back as I can remember. I can provide a loving home for your dog and ease the anxiety of being apart. I am trustworthy and dependable. Being a pet owner myself, I understand fully that our pets become valued members of our families and should be treated as such. I will make sure that your pet receives lots of love, adequate exercise, and playtime in addition to the essentials. I live in a nice neighborhood conducive to walks and I am also near several parks should we crave a change of scenery. I work part-time, but my schedule is flexible. Between myself and my daughter, our Rover guests are rarely left alone. I enjoy an active lifestyle and look forward to meeting you and your pet! Questions are welcome! Thank you for your consideration!
About: Hello, I’m Naughtica. I have had animals my whole life. I mainly have experience with dogs and cats. I have also interacted with hermit crabs, ferrets, and guinea pigs. I have experience with animals with health issues (i.e diabetic cat) and a dog who has separation anxiety. I also provide care for a senior dog who is 16 years old. I have worked and lived with younger animals (dogs and cats). I work part-time so I would like something that’s more flexible. I’m mostly available on afternoons and evenings but I can also do mornings if discussed. I currently have two animals, a cat and a dog. My dog gets walks as long as weather permits and he gets fed twice a day. He also has plenty of toys and puzzles to stimulate his mind. My cat gets play time throughout the day and is fed every 6-8 hours. I also groom my dog, he gets washed, his teeth brushed and his ears cleaned. My cat is still learning the process of grooming but we are currently trying to get her used to her teeth being brushed.
“Takia is a phenomenal sitter! She sent me photos with EVERY walk and always ensured my pets were left with full water and clean areas. She is a true dog lover and even has a puppy wall! Thank you Takia for be a part of Rover. You have been such a great experience!”


About: I have taken care of small and large dogs for family and friends. I also have 1 large lovely American pittbull of my own. Examples of the care I can provide: - walking - picking up 💩 - cuddling - playing - brushing - administrating medication - diet and allergies I provide additional petcare part-time, so I'm normally avaliable in the afternoon, evenings, or nights on Tues.,Wed.,Thurs.,Fri., and Sunday's evenings/nights. I make sure I feed my 8 cats and 1 dog twice daily and I prioritize socializing and cuddles with my cats and dog daily.
About: Hi, I’m Kris! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have two years of professional experience working in a busy doggy daycare, where I was responsible for safely supervising and caring for up to 20 dogs at a time. That experience taught me how to read canine body language, manage group play, administer medications, maintain proper cleaning and disinfection protocols, and provide a safe, low-stress environment for every dog in my care. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds and sizes, including puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, and pets with behavioral challenges or special medical needs. I’ve also fostered dogs in my home, which has given me additional experience helping nervous or transitioning pets feel safe and comfortable. At home, I’m a proud pet parent to three dogs and a cat, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking buddy, a patient companion, medication, or simply lots of love and attention while you’re away, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. My goal is simple: to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and happy every step of the way. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! et care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already structure my day around consistency and animal care. I have experience managing multiple pets at once, so I’m used to building my schedule around feeding times, litter box maintenance, play sessions, and check-ins. I’m typically available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, which allows me to provide reliable drop-in visits and maintain a steady routine for each pet I care for. I’m comfortable incorporating visits into my day-to-day activities, and I plan my time so pets always get full attention without feeling rushed. Because I’ve worked in structured animal care settings and have fostered pets in my home, staying on top of routines like feeding, cleaning, medication, and companionship is second nature to me. Caring for animals isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s something I naturally organize my day around I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every pet care visit. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free for them. I’m careful with home entry and follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication routines, and any house rules. I keep doors secured during visits, monitor pets closely during interactions, and make sure their environment stays clean, comfortable, and safe at all times. Building trust with both pets and owners is important to me. I approach each animal with patience and respect, especially shy, senior, or anxious pets, and I always move at their comfort level. My goal is to create a safe, consistent experience so pets feel secure while you’re away and you feel

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
