About: I’m highly reliable and flexible. I can meet the needs of you pet and will give them the attention they require. I’m a stay at home mom and I would enjoy the presence of your pet to help me stay productive. The number of walks per day will depend on your location. I’m able to dog sit up to 5-7 days a week. Over night stays would be discussed depending if your pet sleeps indoor or outdoors. It is very possible at my home but I would like to know any important details about your pet I should know about when going to bed. I prefer for your pet to be child friendly as well. I’m looking forward to meeting any friendly pet that comes my way.
About: I’ve taken care of my sister husky since I was 14 years old. He’s a reactive dog due to multiple attacks towards him. Therefore I know how to handle reactive dogs or how to stay calm in those situations. I also have 2 cats. My first cats ended up pregnant during her first heat and had some complications during labor so she couldn’t feed the baby. Therefore I have experience with kittens I have a hostess job so I usually don’t work more than 4-5 hours. So it’ll be super easy to walk your pets before and after. Prioritizing your pet care involves creating a safe and trusting environment, whether in my home or a client's. This starts with ensuring the physical safety of the pet by removing hazards and providing secure spaces. Building trust is key, achieved through consistent, gentle handling and positive reinforcement. The environment plays a crucial role; maintaining a clean, comfortable, and stimulating space helps pets feel secure and happy. Tailoring these elements to the specific service you offer ensures the well-being and peace of mind for both the pet and their owner.
“My puppy can be challenging and Shannon did a great job taking care of him and walking him while I was out of town. Great to feel safe leaving your animals with someone!”

About: I provide steady, detail‑focused care with a professional approach that works well for both dogs and cats. I keep my schedule intentionally limited so every pet gets consistent attention and a predictable routine. I have experience with dog training, caring for senior animals and providing TLC to each animal I encounter. I keep my client list limited so that I can provide excellent care to each animal. I am available for drop ins, dog walking and house sitting on weekdays and weekends. I make sure to ask details such as where the extra pet food, toys, leashes etc are located. I like to set up a meet and greet to go over any pertinent information I need to know. During the stay, I will provide an ample amount of pictures, updates and I always respond promptly to answer any questions or concerns.
“Jonathan helped us with dog walks for over a week. Our dogs are picky and take a while to warm up (they are Shiba Inus), but they really seemed to like Jonathan immediately. He was extra communicative and sent great videos, photos and updates. Absolutely would hire Jonathan again.”

About: Hi my name is Alexis I am very friendly with all pets, and I absolutely can’t wait to meet your pup no matter the size or breed I’ve experienced from as small as a chihuahua to as big as a Rottweiler. I am very athletic so I will be able to keep up with your high energy pet. I take care of my sisters German shepherd mix a lot and he is very active. I promise to treat your pup as if he/she were part of my family. I am very very excited to meet you and your pet. I hope you consider me to watch over your little family member. I hope to hear from you soon. I am currently working part time 5 minutes away from my house so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pup! There is a small park in my neighborhood and the dog park is also a short walk away so I would take your pup on as many walks as he/she is up for. I don’t have any pets at the moment but I used to have a chihuahua and a Rottweiler I also don’t have a fenced yard or a big backyard that’s why I prefer walking to the park or dog park
“Cailin is awesome! She includes lots of photos and details of how the walk went in her report cards. I could tell at our meet and greet how much she loves all animals and we really trust her ability to take good care of our pets.”

About: I’ve had both dogs and cats myself, but don’t have either currently. I have worked on dog training and have cared for senior dogs and cats. I love all animals and look forward to meeting yours! I work from an office most days, but I have some flexibility in my calendar. I’m also open most weekends and evenings. If I’m traveling I usually have ample notice. I can’t care for pets in my home since I’m currently in a condo, but will take the extra special care of them in yours!
“My wife and I needed a dog walker last minute. We also needed someone to come by early. Amy was very professional. She continuously gave me updates on the walk. This was my first time using a hired dog walker and Amy made me and my wife feel very comfortable. We very much appreciate Amy and the effort she took to walk our dog.”

About: I have been an animal lover my entire life. I got my first dog when I was eight years old, and we were inseparable. I have always been people’s go to person to watch their pets! This led to me wanting to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. I have almost 5 years of clinical experience and just completed my first year of vet school! I hope to give your pet the time and energy they need and I would love to update you with photos on all the fun things we do together. I am currently living at home for a few months before I start school in the fall. I am pretty flexible during the weekdays and weekends. I will care for your pets by feeding and talking them on walks as needed. I will also make sure our visits are stimulating and fun for them! We will spend some time hanging out and I would love to give them plenty of belly rubs and scratches.

About: Hi there! My name is Wendy and taking care of animals has been apart of my entire life! I used to work at a vet hospital for 5 years, working for my mom who has managed the vet hospital my entire life, giving me years of hands on experience with all sorts of animals. I used to work in the kennel area with multiple tasks to do. Things such as walking dogs, cleaning out all kennels, bathing animals, nail trims, feedings cats/dogs/birds and little critters, I also did laundry to make sure they constantly had clean blankets. I also had experience helping out technicians with giving medications, handling sick patients and how to properly handle any animal with any sort of condition. I have pet sat/ house sat for just about 10 years and have gotten a good amount of clients throughout the years, outside of rover too. I hope to take care of your fur babies while you’re away, bringing you ease knowing that your fur babies are in good hands! Please message me with any questions you may have :) Please let me know if your pet requires me to be around at certain hours of the day. I’m very flexible pretty much all hours of the day. I currently have 3 cats and 3 dogs at home. Cats are indoor and my dogs range in age. My newest being a sweet puppy
“Andrea was super helpful and responsive. I made a mistake with my address in Rover and she reached out quickly and was very kind about the whole situation. Highly recommend & will hopefully book with her again in the future :)”

“Highly recommend Alex, she is amazing with our dogs! We have used her several times and she is always reliable, responsible, and responsive with us. Our dogs love her, and we are so grateful we found her!”

“Alex was fantastic! She did a great job walking our 1.5 year old husky mix, even when he saw a scary coyote and got spooked. Will definitely be working with Alex in the future.”


About: With more than 10 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats, I truly love working with animals. I’m patient, attentive, and dedicated to making sure pets feel comfortable, exercised, and cared for. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, extra scratches, feeding, or companionship, I make sure every pet gets the love and attention they deserve. I’m mostly available on Fridays, and the weekends. The weekends, I have the most availability so you can do day trips and not have to worry. I can also do some weeknights. I follow each pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, and playtime to keep them comfortable and easy any stress. It usually helps to have some guidelines to feeding schedules or walk schedules that the owner requests. I will give pets plenty of attention during play time and make sure they are happy, either purring or wagging tails in a good way. I also treat the home with respect by keeping it clean, secure, and following any instructions the owner provides.
About: The reflection of a person reflects how a domesticated animal will come to be. Thoughts like these make me want to understand more of why we were put on this world. Animals make me happy. They do things so flowingly and naturally and it’s so unique because it’s so simple. They don’t want to do it, they just do it. Each dog and cat all have their quirks and differences which is why they are so special to me being that all animals are special as well. These thoughts and experiences help me into exploring more of what I want to be as a person with animals and how this could help me to become what I aspire in being and beyond. I go to the gym almost everyday about an hour and a half. I go out most of the weekends usually between 2pm to 1am. 3 adults also live in our household and they already take care of most of the pets in our household. Every single moment counts as animals are in every single moment as well since they are being. To this moment I am still learning to understand all of my pets, they all have their differences and that is what I love so much. I have be different with each one. Adapting is such a big challenge for me because it can require a vast amount of patience and effort. Sometimes things will not go the way you want it to and that’s ok. There will always be another moment to try. These thoughts and reasons are what I want to apply when I’m studying new animals and how I can gain their trust.
“Janet provided exceptional care for Bodhi. Her friendly demeanor and natural connection with our pup put us at ease. Always punctual and communicative, she ensured Bodhi felt loved and well-cared-for. I highly recommend Janet for her reliable and heartwarming dog-sitting services.”
