About: Hello! I'm a reliable and trustworthy petsitter. I've been a cat and dog mom for 30 years, including older animals, including hospice care. I have experience with a variety of breeds and sizes (both cats and dogs). I have a flexible schedule and often work at home, giving me plenty of time to love on my pet visitors and get some exercise! I have a fenced in yard, perfect for dogs who like to play outside. I have a very flexible job that I am able to plan around to accommodate the needs of pets in my care. I enjoy being active and am available for walks or backyard play daily. Your baby is my baby when in my care. I’m detail oriented and will communicate with you via pics or text daily if requested. If there is anything specific that your pet needs or you'd like me to work on with them, I'd love to know that so I can give the best care possible.
“Dylan is a kind and attentive cat sitter who not only ensures my cats get the care they need but also treats my house very respectfully cleaning up pet messes as he sees them.”
About: I grew up with dogs, mostly yellow Labrador retrievers. I also had a dog of my own through college and lived with 3 dogs for several years, so I am comfortable with feeding, walking, etc. I am working part-time in the mornings, so I have full afternoons and weekends available for pet care. My children are also with me at all times. I have a fenced in yard for safe playing outdoors, and two children who enjoy playing with dogs, so we can keep your dog safe and entertained
“Excellent communication!!”
“Ruoyang was very sweet and responsive while she took care of our dog! Thanks so much”
About: I have been a dog owner/carer since I was young, and as an adult I have owned many dogs. My dogs are like my children and I have only ever used Rover for their care, which is why I know I would make a great sitter. I am retired, live an active lifestyle and have a pup who will be 2 in June 2025. We walk at least twice a day and hit the dog park for extra exercise. I am retired and can make anything work, including early morning dropoffs, late night pickups, plenty of potty breaks and walks. Also any number of drop ins to your home. I do not have a fenced yard but I do have a decent front and side yard. The local walking path and park is just a block away. I can offer one portable crate if needed. My own pet stays in a crate at night and when I am away. I have a gate to the stairs and she is not upstairs.
“Summer dog sat our two dogs for 5 days. One of our dogs is difficult – she is a highly protective Chihauhau/Corgi rescue prone to lunging, nipping, and sometimes biting. Summer managed this dog extremely well, so well that there were no incidents while under her care. Summer is thoughtful, planful, and did a wonderful job with our dogs. I highly recommend her.”
About: I love animals and have been around them my entire life. Starting out with cats, dogs, turtles and fish. My current animal family is 2 cats. I deeply care for animals so you can rest easy knowing your pets will be in good hands. I will provide your pet with the best services, such as; Dog Walking, Potty Breaks, Overnight Pet Sitting, Around the Clock Care, Dog Park Trips, Kitty Care. If you'd like I can check in with you as often as you prefer to update you on your pets. I love making new animal friends so I look forward to meeting your buddies! I work about 20 hours a week at the most depending how busy it is. So I am able to give your pets loads of attention. While I am away from home I will keep your pet in my bedroom away from my cats and plants. When I am home your pet will be free to wander around my apartment unless otherwise specified or if there are issues with the cats. Potty breaks every 2-4 hours and at least one long walk a day.
About: I’m an animal lover looking forward to caring for your fur baby when you’re away. My own boxer mix crossed the Rainbow Bridge recently and while I’m not quite ready to welcome a new pet into my home, I have lots of love to shower your pet with. I love walks to get energy out, as well as a lazy snuggle session for those couch potatoes. I have experience with medication administration and senior dog care. I was a client of Rover and look forward to being able to provide you with the same great experience I enjoyed - piece of mind knowing my pet was being cared for by a trusted animal lover when I was away. I work from home which allows me to do morning, midday, afternoon, and evening drop-ins and walks. Also being home during the day, I’m available to give comfort to animals that need a little extra love while their owner is away. I follow the direction of you, as the owner, on what your pet’s routine is. My goal is to make sure you and your pet have the best possible experience while in my care. At my home, I have a fully fenced yard which allows for easy potty breaks and exploration when the weather allows.
About: My sweet girl (Cavalier King Charles Spaniel) passed away recently, and while nothing can replace her, I'm hoping to share that love and care I gave her with other furry friends. I've been a dog owner for over 11 years and have experience with both younger puppies and senior dogs. I know how much trust it takes to leave your animal with someone else, and I don't take that lightly! You can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and gentle with your pet, just as I've always been with my own. I work full time during the weekday, but I am typically available to take care of your pet Saturdays, Sundays, and most Fridays with notice in advance. My own space is not the best for pets (small studio apartment), but I am happy to take care of your pet in the space they feel safest-- your own home.
“Ashley took great care of my large and small dogs. She is experienced and knew what kinds of questions to ask to ensure they would have a great experience while I was away. She was very helpful and I had peace of mind.”

18. Bethany P.
“Bethany is an exceptional human. She’s always willing to take care of our animals for multiple days at a time or just drop-ins to check on them, replenish water, potty time or to send a pic. She’s known our pup since crazy juvenile to a salt & peppered senior. I’ve known Bethany since childhood; she’s personable, responsible, attentive, nurturing & reliable. A great communicator & a go-to person for help. Not only will she take great care of your furchild; she’s a fantastic person all around. You and your pet would be lucky to know her! We’re 100% confident she’ll care for your pet’s unique needs & be a warm, friendly, loving companion while you’re away.”
19. Kayli E.
