About: I love spending time caring for animals. I have grown up taking in stray cats and dogs. Animals gravitate towards me and I them. They're my favorite I do work full time. But I will make myself available over weekends. I may also work on weekdays as my schedule allows for it. I am not able to pet sit in my home. But I will take diligent notes to ensure your pet is happy and safe while you're out.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs for more than 35 years for neighbors, friends and family including special needs, vision impaired, in diapers, senior/older dogs, aggressive behaviors as well as big and small. I’ve cared for many breeds both in their homes as well as my home. I’m a professional musician and I work 1-3 nights/week so my schedule varies and is flexible when planned in advance. I can sit in your home or mine. I try to schedule around my part time work schedule. My retired husband is my dog sitting partner so we can accommodate most schedules. Our home has a fenced backyard and a friendly mixed pointer and pug to keep your dog company. The dogs can enjoy the backyard frequently through the day, the back door is often kept open. During the night the dogs and are kept indoors from 12am-7:30am. Dogs can see on their own dog beds or even our sofas. We are a dog family and we’ve housed many dogs through the years. When caring for your dogs in your home, I try to maintain your routines as much as possible. I give lots of affection, petting frequently, brushing once a day. If owner prefers, I allow pets to sit with me, on me. I prefer not to sleep with them. However, if that is what they are accustomed to I am willing. Please warn me if they are loud snorers (like my husband lol)

About: I’m an animal lover and currently work as a veterinary assistant. I have an associate degree in veterinary technology to become an RVT and soon to be a Veterinarian when I’m older. I have a big passion for animals providing love and attentive care. I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, comfortable, happy, and I would love to give your furry babies the same care and attention I give to my own! <3. I’m currently working part time as a vet assistant at my job. Otherwise I am available most of the time. Although some days can change such as dropping my brother off to school in the mornings on Tuesdays and Thursdays. As a veterinary assistant with an associate degree in Veterinary Technology, I understand the importance of making sure a pet feels loved and safe under my care. In fact, I like to put myself in their shoes and think before I do something. Such as if they ever feel scared when meeting me, I’ll let them smell me and get used to my scent before petting them. As a cat owner myself, I know how important it is to provide a loving, stress free environment and follow each pet’s individual needs and routines. I will carefully follow the owner’s instructions, provide updates, and treat every pet with patience, kindness, and care as if they were my own.

“Grace is such a sweet and amazing sitter! She has communicated with me so kindly throughout the entire stay, sends regular photo updates, and follows instructions to a T—and I gave her a lot of instructions! Gemma can be very shy and takes time to warm up to new people, but Grace has been incredibly patient and has worked completely at her pace to make sure she feels safe and comfortable. I can see how much effort Grace is putting into earning her trust, and it’s been so sweet to see Gemma start to open up to her. She’s even managed to put a smile on my shy girl’s face by entertaining her with toys! 🥹❤️ I’m so grateful for Grace and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, patient, and trustworthy sitter.”

About: Hi NEW clients, use my code: evonnw84743, for $20 off your first booking! Or you can use the link https://www.rover.com/sit/evonnw84743 to save! Animals have always been a big part of my life, but my first real hands-on experience came a few years ago when I had the chance to care for my friend’s dogs—it was such a rewarding experience and really confirmed how much I love working with pets. Since then, I’ve cared for all kinds of animals, not just dogs! I currently have two sweet guinea pigs, so I’m comfortable with small animals like rabbits, hamsters, and rats too. Right now, I also have one dog of my own, and I’ve spent a lot of time researching how to give him the healthiest, happiest life possible—from nutrition and enrichment to training and routine. Pet care is a big part of my daily life—it’s something I truly enjoy and make time for every day. Since I already care for my own pets, it’s easy for me to incorporate walks, playtime, feeding, and snuggles into my routine. Whether it’s weekdays or weekends, I’m flexible and happy to adjust to your pet’s schedule to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for, just like at home. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s, their comfort and safety always come first. I make sure the space is clean, calm, and pet-friendly—free of anything that could be unsafe or stressful. At home, I’ve set up cozy spots for rest, areas for play, and keep things tidy and secure. If I’m in someone else’s house, I always treat it with respect and stick closely to the pet’s routine to help them feel at ease. I know every pet is different, so I take time to learn what they like, what makes them feel safe, and how to help them feel right at home. Clear communication and trust are super important to me—I always keep pet parents updated and make sure their pets are getting all the love and care they deserve.

“Hi Alex! Thank you for the heads up about his ears. I will definitely have it checked! We came home and he was so happy. I know he had a good time hanging out with you too! Take care! 🥰”

About: I have 20 years of experience in dog care and can take house and yard and can also walk the dog on time. I’ve been raising dogs for a while now. It’s a joyful experience filled with playful moments and challenges. Every day, I learn something new about their behavior and needs. They bring so much happiness and companionship into my life. It’s amazing how much love and loyalty they show. 1. Feeding: • Once or twice a day depending on the animal and vet recommendations. 2. Fresh Water: • Change water at least once daily. 3. Exercise/Playtime: • Dogs need walks (15–30minutes depending on breed). 4. Grooming (as needed): • Brushing, checking for ticks/fleas, especially for long-haired animals. 5. Clean-ups: • Scoop litter boxes, clean up after walks, or spot-clean cages. Routine Care Includes: • Feeding and Watering: According to the pet’s normal schedule. • Exercise & Play: Walks for dogs, play sessions for cats or small animals. • Medication Administration: If required — pills, drops, or injections (if trained). • Litter Box or Yard Clean-Up: Scooping, changing litter, picking up after walks. • Home Care: Bringing in mail, watering plants, light tidying up, alternating lights or blinds to make the home look lived in.

About: I grew up with a Great Dane who I cared for from childhood until she passed, and she’s the reason I’ve loved pets my whole life. Since then, I’ve helped take care of family and friends’ dogs of all sizes. Today I have an 11-year-old chihuahua (Camila) who is healthy, loved, and very used to having little pups around and a 5-year-old Weimaraner (Lolo) who was literally ‘trained’ by Camila to be gentle and respectful with small dogs. We also have a 16-month-old baby who has learned to be calm, gentle, and loving with pets. Your pup will be in a loving, kind, safe, and experienced home. I work from home with a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to give consistent attention and supervision to your pup throughout the day. My son is in daycare during daytime hours, so the home stays calm, quiet, and perfect for small dogs. I have a fenced backyard and a fenced front yard where dogs can safely explore under my supervision. I only care for a small number of pups at a time to keep the environment calm and safe. My two pups are gentle, respectful of small breeds, and all interactions are always supervised. I can also separate or crate dogs if needed to match their routine.

“Really communicative and flexible. Helped take care of our cat when we were out of town for two weeks. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I’ve raised 5 dogs of my own—Money, Little Bro, Sugar, Latte, and my beloved senior pup Bear Bear, who was with us until the age of 18. I’ve also cared for friends’ dogs, including overnight stays in my home. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I treat every pup in my care with the same patience, love, and attention I give my own. I also love capturing sweet, candid moments and sharing photos with pet parents so they can see how their pups are doing while they’re away. I recently stepped away from my full-time career and am enjoying having more flexibility in my schedule. This gives me plenty of time to give your pup the attention, companionship, walks, and care they need. I’m generally available throughout the week and can work with your dog’s routine and schedule. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, and each dog’s individual routine and needs. I follow pet parents’ instructions carefully and treat their home with the same respect I would my own. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos, so you can feel connected and know your pup is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

As a proud cat dad with three years' pet care experience, I prioritize safety, comfort, and fun. Every pet enjoys a clean, secure space, with plenty of attention and paw-sitive aura.

“Zihui did an amazing job with my new 9 week old puppy snowball. She played with him, followed all directions beautifully, asked for clarification when needed, and she even washed the dishes in my sink. She was amazing and I will definitely be hiring again in the future.”

About: I’ve fostered and volunteered at many animal shelters over the years, and I’ve also been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family whenever they travel. I’m very comfortable around all kinds of animals, and I know how important it is to feel like your pet is in good hands. While I don’t have any pets of my own right now, that just means I can give your pet my full attention and care. I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home with flexible hours. Being home throughout the day means I can provide attentive, hands-on care, whether that’s for walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company. Caring for animals fits naturally into my routine. I can be flexible so just let me know when you’re available and I’ll try my very best to accommodate. When pets stay in my home, I treat them like part of my family. I provide a safe, clean, and cozy environment where they can relax, play, and feel completely at ease. I have a large, fully fenced backyard that offers plenty of space for dogs to run, play, and enjoy the outdoors safely. Pets are always supervised while outside to ensure their safety and comfort at all times. I follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walk times, medication, and bedtime rituals, to help them feel at home. I offer plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles (if they want them!), along with quiet spots for rest and alone time when needed. Whether they’re here for a short stay or a longer vacation, I make sure every pet in my care feels loved, secure, and well cared for every step of the way. 🐶 Dog Care (Boarding & Drop-Ins) When dogs stay with me, I provide a safe, clean, and cozy environment where they can relax and feel at ease. I also have a large, fully fenced backyard where they can run and play safely, always under supervision. I follow each dog’s routine as closely as possible including feeding schedules, walks, and bedtime habits to help them feel right at home. Whether your dog is energetic or more laid-back, I adjust care to match their needs. For dog drop-in visits, I can stop by your home to provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. 🐱 Cat Care (Boarding & Drop-Ins) I also have experience caring for cats with a wide range of personalities, from social and playful to shy and independent. I understand that cats need a calm, patient approach, and I always let them come to me at their own pace. For drop-in visits, I make sure your cat stays comfortable in their own home while you’re away. Visits can include feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and quiet companionship. If boarding, my home provides a calm, low-stress environment that’s ideal for cats. Since I only accept one family at a time, your cat will never be around unfamiliar animals. I never force interaction and always respect each cat’s comfort level. I’m also comfortable caring for multi-cat households and can follow detailed routines, including basic medication if needed. IMPORTANT NOTE: - Please let me know about their temperament. The more details the better. - To give each pet the attention, comfort, and calm environment they deserve, I only board pets from one family at a time. This means your pets will never have to share their space with unfamiliar animals, reducing stress and allowing me to fully focus on their individual needs. Whether your pets are playful, shy, or needs special care, I’m able to tailor their stay and provide a safe, peaceful, and loving home by away from home just for them. - Up to date vaccinations including rabies shots are REQUIRED. ** Pickup & Drop-Off Policy Drop-offs and pickups are available during agreed-upon hours. For scheduling and safety reasons, late-night drop-offs or pickups after 12am will incur a $20 late night pick up fee. Pickups and drop-offs are not available after 2am. Thank you 🐾

“When my husband and I had to go back to the office once a week I was worried how my new puppy and senior dog would do being alone in the house all day. I am so grateful we found Sona on Rover. She comes by the house while we’re gone to feed and play with the pups and give them a much needed potty brake. At first I was concerned that all of my requests would make me sound like an overbearing pet parent but Sona assured us that she was happy to do whatever made us comfortable while we were away. She follows every request to a tee and I can feel confident and secure knowing my dogs are happy and comfortable when we’re not home!”

“Justin was a great sitter for our two doggies! He played with them, fed them, and gave them water just as we asked. He also even picked up their poop which was a nice touch! He made it very easy for us to enjoy our getaway without needing to worry about our dogs. They were in great hands while we were gone!”
