“Xanthia is an amazing pet sitter! We used her services for mid day walks when my partner was out of town. She is diligent, kind, reliable and so fun! She was very communicative and showed a lot of care. I would highly recommend her for any pet care.”


“Whitney is incredible! She dropped in to walk our two dogs twice a day while we were out of town. She was very thorough with her check ins and I felt great leaving them in her hands. Would highly recommend Whitney!”


“Camille and her daughter did great with my two cats, one of whom is a kitten. They’re both sweet cats, but Duvalin can be shy and they were still able to coax her out of her shell for some playtime. We did not even do a meet & greet in person beforehand, but Camille followed my written instructions perfectly.”


“Patrick was great at communicating, checking in, and asking questions. He built great rapport with our dog, and was in tune to the needs of our cats. He watered our tomato plant and brushed the dog. We’re grateful to have found someone so reliable.”


“Aileen provided feedback continuously and was down to follow through with an intensely specific feeding routine. She was kind towards us even as we were anxious about our first vacation away from our kitties.”


“Thank you Lindsay!! I loved all the pictures and check in messages about our boys! You were wonderful! Thank you for playing with them, and for treating them so well. Additionally I really appreciate that you also and out the kitty litter <3 I will be using you again next time we go out of town.”


About: I’ve had the joy of caring for senior dogs during longer stays and have pet sat for many wonderful dogs and cats over the years. Both of my own dogs completed training classes, and I worked closely with them at home on leash, crate, and potty training. With patience and love, they’ve become confident off-leash walkers. I genuinely care for every animal I watch and strive to provide patient, personalized care that helps them feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently going to school, but 90% of my workload is online! I’m available nearly 24/7 and have the flexibility to build my schedule around your pet’s needs! When I stay at a pet’s home, I treat their space and routine with the utmost respect. I follow all care instructions carefully to keep pets safe and comfortable. I create a calm, loving environment where pets feel secure and cared for, just like they’re with family. I’m attentive to their needs and always communicate openly with owners to ensure peace of mind while they’re away!

About: I have cared for a wide variety of animals, dogs and cats, turtles, bunnies, fish, reptiles and amphibians. I have cared for high needs animals with important schedules and protocols and I have some experience training dogs and cats. I work remote so I have the flexibility to be home with your pet(s) as needed. I have a car to commute and I can adjust my work schedule to accommodate your needs. It’s important to me to make your pets experience as enjoyable as possible. I like to help your pets stick to their routine and give them the exercise and attention they deserve

About: I'm a semi-retired teacher following my passion for pets with this Rover pet-sitting and dog walking side-hustle! I've been an animal lover my whole life and have cared for my own animals and friends' dogs and cats since I was a kid. I've learned quite a bit about dog training the past few years and am a big proponent of positive reward training whether that means treats for a job well done, or pets and lovies, or kind words. I have a flexible schedule and am available most times throughout the week and on most weekends. I can do short or long walks with dogs, cat-sitting with treats and play, and dropping in to feed or give your pet attention. I don't have a home that can accomodate overnights with guest animals at this point, unfortunately. So I will only be able to visit your pet at your home or take him or her out in your neighborhood.

About: I've been a dog owner on and off since I was a kid and have always loved all animals. I am currently training my own puppy and am happy reinforce any training your young pup might need. I'm a stay at home mom with school aged kids and a puppy at home. My schedule during the day is very flexible so I can make sure your pet gets all the attention, play time, and walks they need! I'll maintain and respect your home and your pet's routines. I'm happy to send photo updates and ensure your pet feels safe and secure. We have two kids and a puppy at my home in a quiet neighborhood with many walking trails. Kid friendly dogs with basic training will fit in very well.

“Andrea and her team did a great job looking after my two cats (and temperamental sunflowers) this past weekend. It's good to know that she's in the neighborhood and available on Rover. I would 100% book Andrea again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable cat/pet sitter.”


About: I've grown up around Labradors my whole life. Right now I have a yellow lab named Jasmine. She's a very high energy 10 year old dog. She's not the type of lab who likes to play fetch or even go into water. Which I feel is quite odd. The funny thing about Jasmine, she sounds like a monkey at times when she wants to come in the house. A little about me- I love being out in nature. My favorite place to walk is the beautiful Sherwood parks. I feel dog walking could be a lot of fun on my off season of my main job which is school photography. I've worked as a school photographer for 22 years. So I have a lot of patience with kids and feel I could take on any kind of dog. Right now I'm looking to fill my time walking dogs so I can get more exercise and love on many different types of dogs. I'm looking to make some extra money and take some great walks around town. I'm very dependable and will show up when I say I will. I will always make sure your amazing dog is cared for to the fullest and know they will be in safe hands while I have them.

“Tiffany was great. She listened to what I wanted and very attentive to my old man dog. I got pictures and visit notes. She put me at ease being away. Hope to book her in the future”


“I would recommend Peyton to anyone! She took excellent care of our cat. It was comforting to know he was being loved on each morning while we were on vacation. I loved seeing the photos she sent of him playing each day.”


“Evan took great care of my kitties! He is very communicative and always gave updates with pictures. I appreciate how attentive, responsible, and helpful he is, and he knew how to meet the needs of two cats with very different personalities. I would definitely recommend him to family and friends, thank you Evan!!”


About: With years of experience caring for cats and four years managing the needs of our energetic German Shepherds, Ziva and Ares, I bring a wealth of knowledge to pet care. Ziva and Ares, being strong-willed and high-energy, thrive on multiple daily walks, regular obedience training, and playful activities. My extensive background with feline friends, both personally and professionally, complements my ability to handle dogs of all temperaments. I’m eager to bring my experience and passion for pets to provide excellent care for your beloved companions! I love taking long walks with happy pups, rain or shine! My own dogs get at least two walks a day: one early in the morning and another after work. Working remotely gives me the flexibility to meet a variety of needs, and I'm also available on weekends for drop-in visits and care. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I follow a routine tailored to each pet’s needs. I start by maintaining a consistent schedule for feeding, walking, and playtime, ensuring the pets feel secure and engaged. I pay close attention to their health and behavior, making any necessary adjustments to their care. For pets with special needs, I provide extra attention and follow specific instructions closely. I also make sure their environment is clean and safe. Whether it’s for my own pets or a client’s, my goal is to create a comfortable, happy, and healthy atmosphere for every pet.

She does a great job sending me updates on how the pets are doing and following all the instructions for each pet. Hannah is great at building rapport with animals and making them feel comfortable.

Laurel S.
“Laurel loves dogs. She takes their care and wellbeing to heart and continuously strives to be the person that dog's think she is. Going out for a couple of daily walks with her own boy is not so much of a chore but rather, as an opportunity to explore and find new adventures. She actively seeks new trails to explore, new neighborhoods to discover and new opportunities to master. Her boy, Butter, is an example of her commitment. He is regularly groomed, regularly walked and taken to the vet. I can't recommend her strong enough. Our dog adored her and that is the greatest testimonial I can give.”
