“Thank you for the great communication and for taking care of my buddy!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I turned 15! I have experience caring for my own animals, alongside those of neighbors, friends and family members. I have experience in caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets. I will ensure that your dog’s needs are met while you are gone. I am a super detailed oriented person; therefore, if your dog has special needs I am more than open to learning and following their routine. I have open availability between 06/16/26-07/12/26. I am mostly available in the mornings, mid-day/afternoon. However, I am willing to work with your schedule and pups needs in mind! :) I plan on caring for pets in one’s home depending on the clients preferences. If your pet seems to have made a small mess while I am there, I will always cleanup after them. Additionally, if clients do not allow their pets to enter a certain space within the home, I will abide by that as well. Your space, your rules :)

“Dani has taken care of Gambit and Logan many times before joining rover. She has been able to give Gambit his medication when he needed it. She quickly learned their quirks and ensures they get personalized attention when she comes by (Gambit likes to sit on the patio for a few minutes and Logan loves to play). Her love for animals is strong. We will continue to usw Dani!”

“Allison was great with our 12 week puppy Dunkin! She managed a tricky situation where our door was locked and was very communicative during and after the visit. Would totally book with her again.”

“Tommy was wonderful with our two cats. They were especially patient with our elderly cat who needed more time to eat. They took their time feeding and playing with the cats, made sure the doors were locked, and were kind enough to bring in any packages that were delivered when we were gone. Would definitely contact again next time we need a sitter.”

About: Hey there – my name is Nancy, and I’ve taken care of dogs the majority of my life. Starting with my childhood dog, Bandit, a mixed Shepard. As an adult I had a pit bull/boxer mix, Vedder. I had Vedder for 12 years. After Vedder, I had a beagle/boxer mix, Killian. I currently do not have a dog of my own. This gives me plenty of time to take care of your dog I am an experienced sitter, and did walker who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. Some people have told me I’m a dog whisperer at times… I have yet to prove them wrong. I’m currently not working. This gives me plenty of time to spend with your pet. I’m available both days and nights to watch, walk or play with your dog. To ensure the safety and well-being of pets under my care, I would first familiarize myself with each pet’s specific needs, behaviors, and any medical conditions. This includes understanding their diet, exercise routine, allergies, or medications they may be on. During walks, I would keep them on a leash at all times. Moreover, for both walks and sitting sessions, I’d maintain regular communication with the pet owners by providing updates and promptly reporting any unusual behavior. Maintaining vigilance, open communication, and being prepared for unexpected situations are crucial aspects of ensuring the safety and well-being of pets under my care. I am not a certified dog trainer, but I did successfully train my pit bull/boxer, Vedder, and my beagle/boxer, Killian. When you board your dog with me, you can expect a quality stay. Your dog will not only be well looked after, they will go on some cool walking adventures. I’m located near three beaches, and three parks. One of the parks has a bike/walking path. I keep the owner updated with pics and text. I also use a walking app that shows where we walked, how far we walked and how long we walked. When you leave your dog in my care, you can enjoy your vacation knowing that your dog is also having fun.

About: Before you book with me, you should know why I’m a sitter on Rover! I’m a lifelong dog lover and former dog mom to a very energetic Goldendoodle who was the center of my world. My life revolved around long walks, games of fetch, park adventures, and plenty of snuggles, so I understand how important it is to find someone who will care for your dog like family. I work from home 2–3 days a week, so your pup will have lots of company and won’t be left alone for long stretches. While I don’t have a yard, I believe dogs deserve more than just a quick walk around the block. Every stay includes at least one trip to a local park each day for fetch, exploring, or simply getting their energy out. I welcome small to medium-sized dogs that are friendly with young children, as I have a toddler at home. Whether your dog is full of energy or happiest curled up on the couch, they’ll get plenty of love, attention, and cuddles while they’re here. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone, and I’ll treat them as if they were my own. 🐾 Size wise, I will accept dogs that are up to 50-55 lbs. I will facilitate at least a 1 hour walk during the day, plus two other potty breaks. We will get lots of play during the day if I work from home and if not, at the end of the day. I am happy to prepare food puzzles or play tug or hang out on the couch. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I only care for small to medium sized dogs that are friendly with young children, as I have a toddler at home. I don’t have a fenced yard, but all outdoor time is supervised and on leash (off leash can be done in safe places), with plenty of walks and park visits. I’ll follow your dog’s routine, feeding schedule, medications, and any special instructions to help them feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. I only accept one dog at a time so each one gets the attention they deserve.

“Jessica walked our dog several times when we were away and was very responsive from booking to her visits. Murph had a great time and he was well taken care of! We'd definitely book her again.”

Allison R.

“Ange was absolutely wonderful. She was very communicative and always quick to respond to messages, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She sent photos and a thoughtful summary after each visit, something we truly appreciated. We came home to a clean house and, most importantly, happy and healthy cats. We would definitely book Ange again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
