About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years, both personally and professionally. As a lifelong dog mom, I know firsthand how much our pets mean to us—they’re family. Beyond daily walks and playtime, I have experience with administering medications, caring for senior pets, and keeping anxious pups calm and comfortable. My background as a registered nurse has made me attentive, reliable, and detail-oriented, which carries over into the way I care for animals. You can trust that your pet will not only be safe with me, but also loved, spoiled, and treated with the same patience and compassion I give my own dogs. I am currently working part time and have availability in my schedule to love and care for your pet. I have pets of my own and would love nothing more than to have clients who are comfortable knowing they will receive care that is above and beyond. I treat all pets like they are my own. I have a fenced in yard where your pet can run and play. I also have spare rooms if they need to be separated for any reason, safety being my main concern.

About: My first cat was way back in 1992 when a pregnant cat adopted me. She lived in the apartment next door with 4 other cats, a single Mom and 2 little girls. She would visit my apartment daily, also scoping me out, because she had future plans. Soon after I was the proud Human Step-Mom to Mama cat and her 5 kittens. That started my love for the feline species. I've always owned and loved dogs since my childhood. My first dog's name was Rusty, a smart and gorgeous Golden Retriever. I had tanks full of fish, multiple birds (Peanut could talk-he was a Green Cheek Conure), and often cared for my daughters ferret, Franklin, when she went on vacations. No pets are off limit ..... except snakes and spiders. Willing to administer meds. I do pet care full time so I am available just about 24/7. Winter hours may be different for dog walking as it gets dark early. Contact me to discuss as I can be flexible. I have a dog and cat so care outside my home is preferable. I'm willing to care for one animal in my home if necessary.

“Great communication & service. I was in a terrible predicament &;Heather was great & alleviated a lot of stress. My dog is a great judge of character & he took to Heather immediately. Highly recommend”

About: Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I’m comfortable with both energetic puppies and senior pets who need a bit of extra care. I always make sure every animal feels safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I am very aware of enrichment techniques and the best practices to keep dogs feeling calm and happy. Being a college student, I miss my pets from home so much and cherish the opportunity to spend some time with your furry friends. As a college student with a flexible class schedule, I have plenty of time between classes, in the afternoons, and during evenings to care for your pets. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits throughout the week and weekends. I make sure to give each pet my full attention and love during every visit. I provide care in your pet’s familiar environment to reduce stress and keep their routine consistent.

I prioritize safety, trust, and stimulation so your pet feels happy, secure, and loved while you’re away.

“Phila had a great walk with Alexis! She was super friendly, chatty, and picked up on Phila’s behavior right away. Alexis totally got that Phila needs time to warm up to strangers, and it made things so much easier. By the second walk, Phila was totally fine. Would love to have her back!”

“Lynne was incredibly kind and patient with my senior dog! Doug was hesitant to go for a walk, and she encouraged him each day.”

About: I have 9+ years of experience with walking dogs, and years of experience in feeding, training, playing, and caring for both dogs and cats. My entire life I have always been drawn to animals, and am a huge animal lover! In my early teen years, I worked at a dog daycare where I oversaw the care of up to 14 dogs at one time. It was a huge responsibility, but I looked forward to going to work each shift I had because to me it didn’t even feel like work, it felt like a reward getting to care and play with so many animals. Whenever I go anywhere whether it’s a walk around my college campus, a family or friends house, or the park, I am always immediately drawn to all the dogs I see and always ask if I can take a minute to pet each dog. A multitude of family and friends have consistently told me that it’s evident how much I love animals, and how well I get along with them. I am someone you can trust to make sure your pet gets the best possible care when you are gone. As a former cat owner and current dog owner myself, I know just how much love and care pets need on a day to day basis. Whenever I am away from my dog who is my bestfriend in the whole world, I definitely can feel anxious or stressed. I am dedicated to keeping pet parents up to date on the wellbeing of your pets with photos, videos, up to date messages and anything else you’d like as a pet parent (I am happy to do facetime calls too!!). I will always be available and reachable when I am with your pet to answer any questions, concerns, or even just send over some extra photos if you are really missing your furry companion! Additionally, your pets wellbeing and safety is my top priority. I have worked hard to familiarize myself with signs of distress and discomfort in animals, and if anything doesn’t look right I will not hesitate to jump into action to make sure your pet is safe. My dog has had a few scary incidents, and as difficult as it was, it helped to prepare me to know the signs when something is not right and know what to do in case of an emergency. I decided to join rover because I wanted the opportunity to help take care and hangout with animals on a regular basis because it is truly something I absolutely love. I am hard working, enthusiastic, dedicated, and I will care for your pet as if it is my own. I hope you will consider entrusting me to care for such a valuable member of your family! • * Please note I require meet and greets with all potential pet clients BEFORE bookings!* I am currently a full time college student, so I have lots of extra time to care for your furry companion. I am very flexible, and when I am not in classes or other school commitments I have a very open schedule to care for your pet! Currently, I offer services within the clients home for walks or check ins with your pet. I am very flexible, and will work with you to get to know what routine works best for your pet. At this time due to a family members allergy, I am not able to offer boarding services in my home.

“Lots of pictures and messages from Eleanor set my mind at ease that all was well with my dog on their first walk. I'll definitely be booking again!”

About: I grew up on a ranch with 16 horses, 3 big dogs, and 1 miniature pup, all with a variety of needs, emotionally and medically. I have experience exercising large dogs as well as small, and with elderly dog care as well. I can’t wait to bring my love and care to your pet(s)! I am a student working part time with a very flexible schedule. I drive my own car and as such can commute throughout the day from school, work, or home, to visit and care for your pet(s). I like routines and am good at keeping schedules as needed as well as administering medicine or taking walks! I am extremely respectful of the spaces and cleanliness of others homes as well as my own. I am punctual, very organized, and am good as following instructions. I always make sure to take off my shoes inside homes, as well as make sure pet paws are reasonably clean before coming back in from walks and I am no stranger to giving baths when necessary. All in all I am outgoing, respectful, and have excellent attention to detail!

“Jose came to the rescue while we were on vacation after our house sitter had a difficult encounter while walking our very sweet, but dog reactive, Great Dane Charlie. Charlie loved his walks with Jose”

About: I've been a dog lover since childhood and had my own dachshund Charlie for 9 years. I've watched big and small dogs for friends and neighbors, frequented dog parks, and walked dogs through sweltering heat and snow banks. I am a freelance graphic designer hoping to pick up some extra work. My availability is flexible and I can work to accommodate you especially on long term bookings. I have experience working in clients' homes for estate sales and will respect your space and belongings. I will put your pet's safety and health first and look out for anything that may compromise that while under my care.

“Sofia is flexible and responsive. Highly recommend!”

About: Hello my name is Emily and I have been with dogs my entire life. I had a big dog named Lucy and a small dog named Oliver, which I love very dearly. I have taken care of many different dogs from big to small and have enjoyed playing, walking, and teaching them tricks. I have baby sat here and there whenever I was needed and it would always bring a smile to my face. My family and I are huge dog lovers. I think what sets me apart from other dog sitters is that I would rather spend more time with them then do other things. I love walking with them and showing them everything that there is to see in a dogs point of view.

“This was my first time using Rover and Kotun has been great to work with. From the second she met him, Kotun was understanding and attentive to my deaf puppy's special needs. She is punctual, reliable and responsive to communications. Highly recommend!”

“Elena was wonderful. She was kind and patient and kind with Emmie who is sometimes challenging to walk since she gets so excited. I would definitely use Elena again if I have a need.”
