About: I’ve always had dogs in my life since I was a baby, mostly large dogs so I know how to handle them and care for them. I’m able to administer medication if necessary, and I’m patient and attentive, so I can make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable and loved while you’re away. I understand each pet has their own personality and routine, so I always follow owners instructions carefully to minimize stress and keep things consistent. I currently work full time as a bartender, so my mornings and early afternoons are totally open for any care. Nights are a little harder as I get out pretty late. I have 3 cats of my own, I have to administer medication to one of them twice a day, and monitor his litter box use as he has chronic urinary blockages. I am able to feed, clean litter, walk and play with clients pets.
“I was very happy with the wonderful care Amanda gave our 2 cats while we were on vacation. She gave extra time to play with them. Sent me pictures of the cats everyday. Amanda asked before she left the house if their was anything else she could do for us. Amanda is very caring and responsible, I highly recommend her services. I will definitely have her care for my cats again in the future. Thank you Amanda…”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and previously volunteered at an animal shelter where I cared for dogs. I have experience dog sitting for various people over the years and can also administer medication. I’m currently working full time with weekends and holidays off. I arrive back home around 5pm. Anytime I’m not at work, I’m available to provide care! I have stayed at clients houses before to dog sit. I’m comfortable following all directions and am able to meet all reasonable accommodations to include playtime, picking up poop, and crating them.
“Sabrina was scheduled to do drop-in visits beginning Friday evening through Sunday morning, every 12 hours. Thor requires medication for his severe heart murmur and prolapsed valve - his medication helps to keep him happy and healthy. Sabrina arrived promptly at 6:00 pm, medicated Thor, fed Matilda and Winston (Ralphie was a no-show all weekend), but the others were fed, pet, and their litter boxes cleaned. Clearly, some fun was also had with the many toy options. The cats were well-maintained, safe, and happy - this is what matters to us! Thank you Sabrina for taking such time and care with our babies - and especially for sharing their pictures.”

“Abbi did a great job stepping in last minute to look after my kitty, Cho. She spent time getting to know Cho during her visits and sent me cute photos of them playing. I recommend Abbi as a very responsible kitty sitter!”
About: I have taken care of a German Shepherd, Shih Tzus, and chihuahuas as needed for the past couple years. I work part time for a maximum of five hours a day so I am available to provide dogs with attention and care at home the rest of the time. :) I work part time for a maximum of five hours a day, when I am outside of work I spend most of time home. During the time I am at home I’m able to adjust your pets care according to your preference. I live in an apartment and have a small male chihuahua who gets along great with other dogs. I don’t have a restrictive environment and will happily allow your dog to rest on the couches and beds, and roam around the apartment. I don’t have a fenced yard but I can walk and take your dog potty on a leash.
“I recently used Bill for the first time to take care of my cats, Micah and Beyza, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Bill provided exceptional care and maintained excellent communication throughout. He sent us terrific photos, keeping me updated and reassured. Highly recommend Bill for anyone looking for a reliable and caring petsitter.”

About: What sets me apart is my patience, consistency, and genuine love for animals —I focus on making them feel secure, understood, and cared for just like they’re my own. I'm new to Rover as I'm sure my profile shows lol However, Im able to show reviews & plenty of pet love I've given thus far 🥰 This job is equally as enjoyable for mee as the beautiful fur babies ❤️ (maybe more) Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around my bookings to make sure each pet gets consistent attention, care, and reliability. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or boarding, I build my day with their needs in mind so I can provide dependable, stress-free care I care for pets by keeping their routine as consistent as possible, whether in my home or the client’s home. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable by following their normal feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special instructions, while also giving them plenty of attention and affection.
About: I grew up with multiple dogs at home and have watched many family pets. I have experience with some exotic animals and am willing to care for them as well. I have a very flexible schedule, I will be able to care for pets of all ages and sizes, with few or with many needs. I will follow instructions left for your beloved pets, will leash and crate them as need. I am ready for long walks and relaxing for all energy needs. I am not able to bring pets into my home, but will happily visit or stay at your pets home to fulfill any needs.
About: I have been pet-sitting for about 3 years independently. I have 5 years of experience working in doggy daycares and about a year of experience as a zookeeper. I live on a farm so I have been caring for animals my whole life! I promise to treat your pet like my own. I currently work Wednesday-Friday at a pet daycare facility. I have a few regular pet-sitting clients that are very easy to work around. I am extremely flexible and have relatively open availability. I will make sure to answer to your pet's every need. They will feel like they are on a 'stay-cation' while you are away! I am happy to put in whatever work necessary to make their time with me wonderful.
About: I've been caring for animals since I was in elementary school, starting with my own pets and eventually helping care for the pets of family members, friends, neighbors, and coworkers. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I truly enjoy spending time with them and building loving friendships with each one. Whether it's going for long walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm also a proud cat owner, and caring for my own cat has given me firsthand experience in providing attentive, daily care and understanding the importance of patience, consistency, and affection. I genuinely love all animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care and give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for. I have full time employment as an educator but will have summer break coming in June so I will have plenty of time for your pets!☺️ When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my priority is always making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and companionship so they feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away. I also keep their space clean, fresh, and stress-free, and I always provide updates with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind. For dogs, I enjoy going on long, engaging walks and making sure they get both exercise and enrichment. For cats, I focus on gentle care, play, and respecting their comfort level—whether that means interactive play or quiet companionship.
About: I have taken care of pets all my life, by 8 years old I had 5 pets to care for. Comfortable around all dogs and cats. Very much a pet person! I currently work a full time job but I can definitely make a schedule that accommodates to your fur baby whether it be walks, check ins, companion time or whatever else I may be able to help with! I am not offering at home care for pets just yet, not able to provide the space in my current home. hoping to very soon.
“Thank you guys so much for taking care of Maverick!! He’s like our new little baby and we were very hesitant about having anyone else come take care of him but crazy work schedules made it unavoidable. Your pictures and the detailed report were super comforting and reassuring for us. We look forward to having you visit him again!”
“Rachel is fantastic! We knew we were in good hands starting with the meet and greet. Really took time to get to know us and our pup Tony. Very responsive and flexible regarding our plans, and patient and helpful! Then for the day of the walk she provided updates about our dog and I know they had a great time together! Our dog was in excellent spirits when we returned. We were nervous since we hadn’t had a walker come in years, but all fears were put aside with Rachel. Can’t recommend enough. She brings passion and care to her work!”

About: I have been a dog owner (small. medium, large, house and sporting breeds) for 55 years and cat owner for 10 years. It is my passion to now take care of others pet needs. I am now retired and have plenty of time to help other manage the love of their pets when they are not available to do so. I cannot take care of pets in my home at this time. I rent and have 3 pets, significant other, a daughter and a grandson in the house.
About: As a veterinary assistant, I bring a strong foundation in animal health and safety to every pet I care for. I’m trained to recognize discomfort, administer medications if needed, and respond calmly and effectively in case of emergencies. Beyond the clinical side, I have a genuine love of spending time with animals and understand the importance of keeping them not only safe but also happy and emotionally supported while their families are away. What sets me apart from other sitters is my ability to combine professional veterinary knowledge with a deep sense of compassion. I have experience working with puppies who need structure and patience, as well as senior pets who may require special accommodations or extra care. I strive to treat every pet as if they were my own, giving them the love, attention, and comfort they deserve. Whether it’s a playful or quiet companion, I adjust my care to suit each pet’s individual personality and needs. As a college student, I am using my free time to maximize community outreach and volunteer experience. My schedule is very flexible and open to accommodations! I typically meet pets where they are, if they prefer to play or just lay down and sleep, I can adjust to them! If needed, I can also be firm in setting boundaries that align with their specific training.

Morgan did a great job stopping in and caring for both my dog and cat! She was very communicative before and during the visit, letting me know my animals were being well cared for. I definitely recommend her and will work with her again if the opportunity arises! Thank you Morgan!
