“Chelsea was WONDERFUL! My husband and I rarely leave our girls and when we do, we’re very cautious. Chelsea sent so many pictures and checked in with us consistently. Will definitely be rebooking!”


“Brooke is really great with dogs! Boone seems to really like her. She sent us pictures of him throughout the day and was very responsive when we had a question. She’s flexible with your schedule and needs and does a lot to accommodate your pups needs. She slept with our pup each night.”


“Vanessa provided such good care of our 2 dogs while we were away. I may have bombarded her with tons of notes on our routine and where things were and she took it all with great stride. She sent a lot of pictures and touched base as needed so I had no worries at all. Vanessa is very sweet and easy to work with and you will have no worries after you see her meet your dogs. My normally barky lady was totally mesmerized.”


About: I've had experience with every kind of animal, dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, insects, you name it and I've probably done it. I am the go-to for all my family and friends Currently a student of a trade program with a schedule of 5 hours a day, available after 1pm and free on Mondays and weekends all day. I have a huge fenced in yard with plenty of space to run and play, a deck and a doggie pool for the dogs that love the water, a wide open house with hardwood floors.

“Marisa was AMAZING. We have four dogs that are a little spicy and needy. She made sure they were all looked after exactly like we asked and I’m pretty sure they were all having such a good time they didn’t notice we were even gone. Great communication as well with the perfect amount of updates and photos. She was also super accommodating to our travel schedule which was awesome. 10/10 recommend.”


“Our dogs appreciated having Kirsten with them for a week. She regularly walked, fed and gave them lots of love and affection which is exactly what we wanted! Thank you Kirsten. We look forward to having you back again.”


About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was young till now with my two dogs, and two cats. I love to hike and walk with my dogs. They also love playing ball or chasing toys around in home. Cats are older now so they just want love and pets. I work full-time but that doesn’t stop me from having time to make sure our animals get play and care when I get home. I’m available weekends or after 5 pm for any care for your animal :) I have two dogs that are dog friendly and a crate if needed. I have a park right across the street to have long walks or play in grass or they even have a dog park.

About: I have had dogs since I was 2 years old and started caring for others pets since I was a teenager. I have worked with children and training service animals as well as fostering pets for a few years. I am an animal person more so than I am a people person, which makes me the ideal companion for your furry pal and all of their needs. I was a stay at home mother, but my kids are both starting school this year so I will have all the spare time in the world to come and take care of your pup. I am available weekdays from 7am-7pm and weekends on a case by case basis. I specialize in walk training and helping your dog get as comfortable as they can be. I have my own leashes and harness if needed, but can use yours if your furry friend prefers. I love to play with toys and can help them get the exercise their body craves.

About: I've been caring for pets since before I was 12, I've had Cats, Dogs, and Hamsters over the years, never met a pet I didn't like. Available All Week, been searching for a stable job but no luck, so I figured why not get paid to do something I enjoy, while I look for work. I'll feed, walk, and play with your pet's, if you're a concerned parent then I can happily send you pictures of your pet throughout the day.

“We were very pleased with Audrey. She kept everything nice in our home, and I could tell the animals were well taken care of. I would most definitely use her again in the future.”


About: I've owned many pets growing up, from guinea pigs, cats, dogs, large and small! I currently own 2 dogs that I adopted, 1 is a pitbull/GSD mix and the other is a purebred Dutch Shepherd. I raised them both from puppies and taught them both to be off leash, so I understand the importance of training, basic manners, and routine. I hope to help maintain a sense of routine and loving care whenever you need to go away, whether that is for work or vacation! I currently work remotely, so I'd love to help with pet care mainly on the weekends or for evening or early morning drop ins or walks as needed. My dogs have a basic morning and evening routine, including breakfast or dinner, and at least one walk a day at lunch or in the evenings to avoid the heat. I walk my dogs on a leash in my neighborhood, and I'd love to do the same for your pet! I can drop in on your pet, ensure a walk or scheduled playtime or feeding.

About: I have grown up around several animals, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and more. Family friends are confident their pets are in good hands when leaving them in my care. I LOVE getting up for a morning walk to get the day started. Most days have some free time until I work mid-afternoons for only 4-5 hours max. I usually do a lot of playtime or another walk before and after work. At my home, I am on the first floor of an apartment but have plenty of space to walk and a dog park right next door! When at your home, depending on if I am staying there or not determines how I go about the care. I am all about keeping your pet's schedule as intact as possible!

“Ashley was amazing and I highly recommend her. She took great care of the boys and really helped me out when I needed her to stay a little longer than originally planned for. Will definitely use her again”

Shawtown pet parents share their Rover experiences
Cameron (Penelope) was an amazing pet sitter for my dog! Could not recommend her enough! I explained to Cameron that while my dog could be shy, with extra love and care he would come out of his shell. And that he did! I loved receiving frequent updates and photos that Cameron sent - it gave me great peace of mind. Additionally, Cameron was extremely respectful of my home while staying here.
