About: I have great knowledge of dogs, having been a German Sheperd dog owner myself for decades. I've also had many years of training dogs. I also understand aging dogs. I am retired and a widow. I am active in many projects but have an extremely flexible schedule. Can make my schedule fit yours which can include early mornings or late evenings. I have a fenced in back yard and currently no animals reside with me. I can do care in my home or yours whatever your preference.

About: My family has had dogs my whole life. A couple years ago, I started professionally dog sitting and I greatly enjoy it. I'm patient, I learn each dog's personality, and I make sure they have a safe fun time. I currently balance different self-scheduled gig work. Having no set or minimum hours, my time is highly flexible. I can schedule to fit your needs. I keep a careful eye on pet behavior and surroundings. For yards, I make sure fencing/gates are secure and keep an eye the dogs. For walking, I ensure leashes, collars are comfortable but very secure and tied to my arm as a back up. I keep a bottle of water. I can walk fast and keep pace but also encourage the dog to not wear themself out.

About: As a pet owner, I know the dread that looms over your head when you decide to leave for vacation, work trips, or a weekend getaway. I’m here to make leaving your pet temporarily as easy as possible! I will give your pet the care and love they deserve while you’re away! I love to send photos and videos to the pet owners so they can be more relaxed on their trip, knowing that their pets are well-taken care of. I’m very responsive so if you’re anxious, I am more than happy to drop by your house on an unscheduled time to check on your pets. Not only will I make sure your pets are safe, I will also make sure that the house is safe as well!

“Tee-Tee overall is an exceptional at her job. She took good care of our dogs while we were away. We trust her coming into our home for the first time and she did not disappoint. Tee-Tee was not on the scheduled time that we both agreed upon. However she did communicate with me each time she was late to perform her duties. Overall I will definitely use her again because we are pleased with her service. :-)”

About: I have taken care of different animals growing up dog sitting, and dog walking is what I normally did! I love going on walks with dogs combines my two favorite things, the outdoors and animals! I have two other jobs but don’t work full time, I usually have a couple days off. When I’m off i like to be outside and doing things! I help make the animals feel safe! I know how some animals can be with their parents gone and it can make them feel scared or abandoned. So being there with them and playing with them can help calm that sense of abandonment!

“Easily the best sitter I've had from this app. She communicates well, goes above and beyond, sends so many photos, and is a lovely human. I've booked with three pet sitters in total on Rover and she shines above the rest. I can tell she genuinely enjoys this job and cares about my pets well-being. I'm usually so anxious leaving my cats for long periods of time, but not at all with Maegan. I don't think words can properly express how wonderful she is!”

Lynne C.Star Sitter
“My basset hound Scout and Lynne have a wonderful relationship. Scout loves playing in her huge fenced in yard and lounging on the her couch by the window. Lynne is very keen on keeping a close eye on Scouts specific diet restrictions, attention and exercise needs and never hesitates to reach out and ask if she has any questions. Lynne has watched Scout multiple times and Lynne always seems to look forward to seeing the pup again. Over all Lynne is a sweet loving woman with a huge soft spot for any animal making her one of my first go to's when my 4 legged child needs a sitter.”

“Savannah has been an amazing sitter for my dog over the last two years. From their first meeting, Remy loved her and gets excited whenever she comes over to our house to stay with him. Savannah treats Remy like he was her own dog and enjoys sending me pictures of the two of them while I’m gone. I would recommend Savannah to anyone looking for someone whom you can trust with your fur family members. She is highly mature, responsible, and reliable.”


Kearstin S.
“Kearstin is not only an all around amazing human being, but she’s a girl who loves all animals, especially dogs. She is a phenomenal dog mama to her fur baby Joe who her and her husband rescued. The patience she has with him and the connection she has made with him is truly inspiring. I have seen first hand how gentle, nurturing, loving, and responsible she is with her own, and other dogs. I would absolutely trust her with my own fur babies Lilly and Beau.”
