5. Leticia G.
About: My name is Leticia, I grew up with dogs all my life I currently work from home which gives me plenty of time for constant potty breaks in my fenced yard, walks around the neighborhood and the community grassy area around the water, and plenty of playtime. I have two dogs of my own, and i know how hard it is to find a pet sitter that do this more for the love of pets than the money. My dogs are my children and that’s how ill treat yours. I work from home everyday of the week and I am available for boarding, daycare, walks around the neighborhood and drop in visits at your home. I have a fenced yard and two happy pups that will be over joyed to have friends over to play with. We’re also steps away from a waterfront community area.

12. Caroline A.
About: I never met an animal I didn't like! I dog/cat/house/farm sat for years and have experience with many types of animals. I trained and cared for horses professionally for 10 years. I have extensive veterinary knowledge and am extremely responsible with animals. I have two big dogs of my own and have had many dogs and cats in the past. I'm very comfortable with unique requirements including medication and behavioral differences. I have a flexible schedule and would love to care for your pets! I work evenings on a flexible schedule. I can move my work around to accommodate pet care. I'm never gone for more than 6 hours. I walk dogs including strong pullers/reactive dogs. I exercise dogs in a fences in yard. I can crate train, potty train, and obedience train. I believe dogs need sufficient exercise, consistent boundaries, and company.
13. Gabriella F.
“Gabriella was a wonderful sitter. It was obvious from the pictures that she took every day that our little kitty was standoffish during the first few days but Gabriella persisted and they were clearly friends by the time we came home. I thank her for her efforts in caring for our furry family member.”
14. Isabella C.
About: Throughout the years of having watching animals, I learned that they all need loving care just as humans do. I also send updates to you and photos of your pets :) I’m open pretty much anytime since I just finished with finals. I’m looking to help in anyway I can. I’m like an open schedule at the moment. I treat the animals as if they were my own. I’ll treat them with love and make sure they feel safe in my care always.
15. Chad L.

“Elena watched after my two dogs in Boston before she moved and we miss her very much! She is by far the best dog sitter we have ever used, is always accommodating on a last minute trip and takes excellent care of our two high energy puppies.”
18. Randi W.
“Ive never had my dog so excited/happy with a Rover person. Randi truly goes over and above. She came prepared with her own supplies (treats/poop bags) and was patient when i abruptly asked if she would be willing to stay longer due to work conflicts that arose. Genuinely has love for dogs. As long as her schedule is clear wont be booking anyone else going forward”
