About: I’ve had all kinds of animals my entire life, so being around pets and taking care of them has always just come naturally to me. Right now I have two of my own, and they’re truly like my kids—I treat them with a lot of love, attention, and care, and that’s exactly how I approach every pet I watch. What really sets me apart is how seriously I take that responsibility. I don’t just “watch” pets—I treat them like they’re my own, or how I would want someone to treat mine. That means making sure they’re not only safe, but comfortable, getting attention, exercise, and sticking to their normal routine as much as possible. I’m comfortable with all types of pets—high-energy dogs that need long walks and play, as well as more laid-back or older pets that just need patience and a calm environment. I pay attention to behavior, mood, and the little things, because I know how important it is to trust the person taking care of your animal. At the end of the day, I just genuinely love being around animals, and I want both you and your pet to feel completely at ease while you’re away. have an open and flexible schedule, which allows me to be available throughout the week and on weekends. Pet care easily fits into my routine, and I’m able to accommodate a variety of needs, whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, or last-minute requests. Since I provide care in your home, my goal is to keep everything as close to your pet’s normal routine as possible. I know how important it is for pets to feel comfortable in their own environment, so I focus on consistency, patience, and making sure they feel safe while you’re away. I treat your home with the same respect I would expect someone to treat mine. I follow all instructions closely—feeding schedules, walk routines, medications (if needed), and any specific preferences you have for your pet’s care. Safety is a top priority for me. On walks, I stay alert, avoid unsafe situations, and make sure your pet is always secure. During drop-ins, I make sure doors, gates, and anything that could pose a risk are properly handled before I leave. I also believe communication is huge, so I’ll always keep you updated with messages, photos, and how your pet is doing so you can have peace of mind. At the end of the day, I treat your pet like my own and your home with respect—you can trust they’re in good hands.

“In a matter of days Jules managed to become not just my shy fur baby’s best friend, but also left a lasting impression on me! I’m so thrilled I found her on Rover (so is my cat) and I plan to continue booking Jules for future visits as needed! I would highly recommend Jules to anyone looking for a responsible, caring and trustworthy cat bestie!”

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for over 20 years and truly love being around them. I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities — from high-energy pups that need long walks and playtime to older dogs who just want a slower stroll and some extra TLC. I understand how important routine is, and I stick closely to feeding schedules, walk times, and any special instructions you leave. I’m active, dependable, and easygoing, and I’ll always treat your dog like one of my own. You can expect regular updates and photos so you know your pup is happy and in good hands. 🐾 Pet care fits really naturally into my daily routine. I’m already active and build walks, outdoor time, and structure into my day, so adding dog walks, drop-ins, or check-ins works well for me. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be consistent with feeding times, walks, and any special care instructions. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday visit, or evening check-in, I’m able to plan my week around making sure pets get reliable, attentive care. It’s something I genuinely enjoy, not something I’m squeezing in. 🐾 Whether in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. I follow feeding schedules carefully, stick to walk times, and make sure they get plenty of attention and exercise based on their energy level. Playtime, enrichment, and calm downtime are all important depending on the dog’s personality. In a client’s home, I respect the space completely — keeping things clean, secure, and exactly how I found them. I’m attentive to details like medication instructions, house rules, and preferred commands. Communication is key, so I always send updates and photos so owners feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for. 🐾

About: I’m a responsible local college student offering dog walking, drop-ins, and basic pet care. I’m newer to Rover, but I’m reliable, patient, and careful about following each owner’s instructions. I’m available every day on a flexible summer schedule for dog walking, drop-ins, and basic pet care. I’ll keep my availability updated and am happy to discuss your pet’s routine ahead of time to make sure I can provide reliable, consistent care. I take safety and trust seriously and will follow each owner’s instructions carefully. During walks, drop-ins, or stays, I’ll make sure pets have fresh water, proper leash or harness use, potty breaks, and a calm environment. I’m happy to send updates and photos so owners know their pets are doing well.

About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was a child, living with no less than 3 dogs at a time growing up, including other animals such as rabbits, Guinea pigs, turtles, bearded dragons, diamond tale doves and my current dog and cat. I’ve rescued 2 dogs from SPCA and trained them to be happy, healthy, content companions. I’ve taken care of cats, reptiles and dogs for neighbors in my hometown for over 10 years. I have experience with puppies and new litters so I’d be able to help out with that as well if needed. Everyone in my household is an experienced animal lover/owner as well :) I’m currently out of work and home for now so I have quite a bit of free time to help out with the local pets in need! I can coke for house visits in the day to feed, walk or entertain your pets as needed. Id be willing to stay and play with them a bit and or walk them.

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra patience and attention, I provide loving, reliable care tailored to each animal’s needs. I understand how important routines, comfort, and safety are, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m a student at Towson University! All of my classes take place in morning/early afternoon so I am free in afternoons/ evenings. The weekends I am completely free as well! I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any medication instructions. I make sure the space is clean, secure, and free of hazards, and I never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I also maintain open communication with owners by providing regular updates and photos, so they feel confident and reassured while they’re away. Most importantly, I give each pet patience, attention, and affection to ensure they feel comfortable and cared for.

About: As a retired professional, I bring reliability, patience, and a calm presence to every walk. I’ve been a dog owner of two large breeds and one small breed. I have hands-on experience with doodle breeds and their unique personalities. I understand the importance of safety and health. I’ve cared for dogs with medical needs, so I’m comfortable with monitoring, medications, and giving extra attention when needed. Whether your dog loves a brisk walk, a gentle stroll, or some extra cuddles along the way, I treat every pup like family because that’s what they are. As a recently retired police officer, I currently work part-time so my hours are flexible and will have plenty of time for your fur babies. I will treat your home as if it were my own. I will safely walk your dog on leash, and can easily crate your dog, if need be.

“Very kind and caring”
