“Robert O. Is taking very good care of my cat Meeuse. She's typically quite the standoffish type. He's been able to coax her a get chin scratches, head rubbies, and she came up on his lap (very rare). Thank you Robert!”

About: I've owned and loved three Cocker Spaniel dogs through out my twenty years of my life . I find being with dogs comforting, fun, and enjoyable. I've been told in my jobs that I am reliable, caring,and a hard working, individual. My pet experiences have ranged from caring daily for a puppies, daily dog walking, and staying at a variety of houses to dog sit for extended periods of time. In these experiences I have watched toy sized dogs up through large sized breeds, and I have had many repeated customers. Currently I am available and flexible to work around you and your dog(s) needs. I believe spending time with your dog(s) would be enjoyable for both of us, and we would have a blast together.

About: Hi there! My name is Ruby, and I was born and raised in Clinton County, MI. Growing up, my family had a variety of pets, including an Old English Bulldog and German Shepherds, which helped shape my love for dogs from an early age. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own since we’re renting, I’m looking to take on opportunities like this to earn some extra income during my final summer before graduating. I absolutely love dogs, have experience pet sitting and staying overnight with pets on multiple occasions, and some of my favorite breeds are Basset Hounds and Golden Retrievers. My schedule varies, so I’m using this as an opportunity to help fill in the gaps on a day-to-day basis. At the same time, I’m hoping to build consistent work so I can establish reliable income while also getting to know and build relationships with specific pups over time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always keep in mind that I’m stepping into their space and routine, and that their pet may not know me yet. I make it a priority to take the time to help pets feel comfortable, safe, and at ease by moving at their pace, respecting their routines, and building trust. Whether that means going for walks, keeping feeding schedules consistent, providing playtime, or simply offering companionship, I aim to create a calm and positive experience while making sure your pet feels cared for in a familiar environment.

“This was our first Rover experience and Amy was great! Communicated throughout the entire time and was not afraid to ask questions to cater to my pups! Pups seemed to have loved her too! Will definitely be using her again!”

About: At an early age, I started walking the neighborhood dogs. I’ve always loved animals, and treat them as my own. Friends and family often rely on me to watch their pets and take them out when needed. I’m very attentive and will treat every animal with the kindness they deserve. I work from home three days a week, and have the weekends off. I have a pretty flexible schedule and can take my work with me anywhere I go. Caring for your pets in your home will be my main priority. I will make sure they are well taken care of, loved, and feel safe.

About: I have had animals my whole life. I pet sit all over the area of st. john’s. I have many references. I know how to give animals any prescription or medication they may need. I am very experienced and focus on any animals needs. I have had an amazon parrot by whole life and am more then willing to take care of birds. I am 18 years of age and just graduated high school. I am available for all your pets needs 24/7 7 days a week. Let me help you with any of your animals needs. I make sure that your animals is always safe and there is no hazardous items around your pet. I will have your pet with me at all times.

About: Ever since I was little, I have loved all kinds of animals and hope to one day have a career working with them. I have been helping care for my own dogs since I was around six years old and have experience with both large breeds, like Labrador Retrievers, and small breeds, like Chihuahuas. I have also cared for the dogs and cats of friends and family while they were away. In addition to dogs and cats, I have owned and cared for two hamsters, a Canadian goose, three ducks, and have experience helping care for horses. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and understand the extra patience and attention they sometimes need. Currently, I have two Labrador Retrievers named Annie and Delta, and I love spending time caring for them. I am also comfortable administering medications, as one of my dogs requires seizure medication three times a day. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I am committed to providing loving, reliable, and attentive care for every animal I look after. I am a junior at Hope College home for the summer so my schedule is fairly open and I am very flexible. I am usually busy weekends and Tuesday and Thursday nights when I am coaching lacrosse. I can care for your dog in your home just as you would care for your dog if you were home. I could easily crate your dog if needed, take them for walks, feed them, and take them out to use the bathroom.

“Elizabeth was great! Very attentive and communicative throughout the stay. She came to spend some time and care for my cat just after we said goodbye to our other cat earlier that weekend. She was very empathetic and kind to our situation. I’ve had so many issues with finding quality care through rover, and it was such a relief to find someone who I can trust in. Will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Thanks, Elizabeth!”

About: Part-time working mother of two looking to help my community care for their pet family members. I have always had a love for animals and had pets my whole life until a few years ago. Our beloved chocolate lab passed away and we have decided to wait until our children are older before we welcome another fur child. I understand the importance of respecting others homes and treating your pet as one of my “children”. I am responsible, punctual and looking forward to getting to know your pet! I am currently working from home three days a week which allows me to be available most days, nights, or weekends for drop ins, house sitting and walks. I enjoy going on runs and walks both in the country and around town. I live near a county park that allows dogs to swim and run around.

“so sweet and so timely!”

“Alex was great! He was very communicative about my pets and let me know what time he was arriving and leaving each day. He made sure our boy cat got his medicine and was really good about getting our picky cat to eat away from the others. He sent pictures each day, which was very comforting. He also brought in packages from our mail securely in the house, which was extra helpful.”

About: I manage a house of five high energy sport dogs, who have varying degrees of difficulty and personalities and arousal levels that need to be managed. I am proficient at caring for puppies, seniors, high energy dogs, dogs who have to be managed around other dogs, and other special needs dogs or situations. I can adjust my schedule as needed to be available! Early morning walks, mid day drop in and evening outings are all possible ways to care for your pets. I am trustworthy and reliable in your home, have a fenced in yard at my home and have lots of safe pet friendly places to take your pet on adventures (if that’s what you want!)

About: I’ve been pet-sitting for over 10 years and truly love caring for animals of all kinds. From energetic puppies to independent cats, I take time to learn each pet’s personality and routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always make sure pets get the attention, playtime, and cuddles they deserve. You can count on me to treat your pets like my own, because they deserve nothing less. Pet care fits naturally into my week because I treat it like a true commitment. I maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets focused, reliable attention at the times they need it most. Communication and consistency are always part of my routine. When I’m in a client’s home, I provide structured, dependable care. I follow your pet’s schedule exactly, mealtimes, walks, medications, and play, and make sure they’re relaxed and content. I’m attentive to detail, respectful of your space, and committed to open communication so you always know your pet is in good hands. When it comes to house sitting, I prefer not to stay over nights. I can do several drop ins through out the day. Depending on the need.

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was a kid. We currently have 2 dogs and 2 bunnies. My daughter has been around animals since she was a baby. She loves all animals and many refer to her as the dog whisperer. I have trained all my dogs as puppies and been with them until they pass. I have a flexible job and have plenty of time in the evenings and weekends to play with your animals and give them plenty of exercise. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do have an acre to play leashed or unleashed in and a neighborhood to walk them in. My daughter is great with animals, and very gentle and will not be left alone with any animals. I have a crate for your dog if needed as well for when I am not home.

About: For years I have been surrounded by animals and taking care of them. I am here to help owners who don’t have the time to give their dogs a walk or even needing pet sitting! Currently this is my only job, I only will be doing sitting or walking during the week. My routine basically depends on the animals and what client's wish me to help with or do during my hours with the animals. I can take care of lizards, dogs, and cats. I always first make sure what allergies or restrictions are needed for the pet at their home. I offer walking and pet sitting. I can come at certain times the owner needs by request to make sure the animal is safe and cared for.

About: I’ve never met an animal I don’t like or doesn’t like me. I’m very particular myself about who I let watch my babies so I’ll do the same for you. Not available during the week but am available most weekends (and Friday nights) to come by and check on your babies! I’ll send a bunch of photos. I have a 5 year old black lab and a 15 week old golden retriever puppy. Both of which I love and have tried to train (they’re working on it!) and also have two male cats that were litter mates. I just treat all animals like I would my own.

About: When petsitting, I go beyond basic pet sitting by tailoring care to each pet’s personality and routine. I’m reliable, a good communicator, and can keep you updated via pictures! I also have experience administering medications and handling anxious pets as I have one of my own. My goal is to prioritize your pets safety, and keep them happy and comfortable. I am on the MSU women’s rowing team, and only have practices 6:30-9:30am daily. Aside from that, I have a part-time job with a very free schedule. I provide a safe, calm, and clean environment whether pets are in my own home or yours. I don’t like to get them off routine as I know that can be a bit overwhelming for some animals, and love to give lots of attention! I’ll also be attentive to any needs of the pet, and keep you updated with photos/texts so you know your pet is in good hands!
