“Sydney did an amazing job caring for my pup and taking her on great walks! She sent me updates, cute pics, and even did a “buddy walk” with her dog (after confirming my dog would be okay with that) and they had so much fun together!!! So happy she offers this so my dog can have a buddy and get some play time in with another pup + her walk 😊”

About: I will provide a tremendous amount of love for all pets that enter my home. I grew up mainly taking care of dogs but I have also experienced one cat, two birds, and two Guinea pigs. I've had two litters of Chow Chow puppies that I raised. My most recent pet of my own was 2020 when I welcomed our first Cavalier King Charles Spaniel to our home. Your pet will enjoy their time with me as their pup sitter, whether it's a brisk walk or overnight slumber, each moment is cherished as if they are my own. My personal experience will get us safely through the day, a belly rub a day keeps the fear away. Pet care fits in perfect for afternoon care. I work full time but have time for brisk walks out or a playful pup park run. Weekend sleepovers are fun as well. I currently crate my dog when away and allow freedom when home under adult supervision. When outside, a leash is mandated unless we are at the dog park, until our fence can be completely closed in.

“Hailey M. Is absolutely wonderful with animal. From a young age she has been a great help with all our pets: dog, cats, parrot, rabbit, or leopard gecko. She is gentle, observant, and highly responsible. She connects with her charges…indoor or out. From shepherding monarch caterpillars to fresh milkweed to eye-dropper feeding orphaned community kittens, Hailey cares…and is channeling that care into her studies for a career in veterinary medicine.”
5. Rebecca H.
“We absolutely loved Rebecca and will book her again the future! I have a large 60# pittie mix, medium 30# beagle mix and small 9# terrier mix doggies, and she handled them beautifully! I really appreciate when sitters stop by in advance to meet the doggies so that I can show the sitter where everything is, and Rebecca was super responsive and accommodating! I was also lucky she was available within 2 week's notice and bonus that she was available the week after Christmas. My pittie is shy and was very comfortable around her, as was my beagle mix and she was so attentive with my small newly rescued 9# terrier mix who is an older gent. Rebecca sent me pictures which I loved and kept in touch with me throughout my trip. I loved her messages and she has such a kind and professional demeanor. So happy I found her. 3 dogs - one of whom had only been with me for a week - is no small feat, but she was truly wonderful and took great care of my babies. I can't say enough great things about her. She settled my nerves about leaving my fur kids at home. Look forward to working with her again in the future! Thank you, Rebecca!”
6. Victoria M.
“Tori is a loving and wonderful person. She has especially loved animals since she was very young. She has both dogs and cats and knows how to care and handle both. She has also spent time on the farm and rides horses. Tori is reliable, honest and trustworthy. I highly recommend her for your pet's needs,”
7. Hope M.
“Hope was the best dog walker ever! My dog had never been happier but also so tired afterward! So thankful for her service!! She is so trustworthy and my dog is always so happy to see her?”
8. Brittany Y.
“Great communication, sent photos and updates! Meet and greet was a wonderful idea and made me feel really comfortable trusting my pup with you! Will book again, thank you Brittany!!”
9. Susan T.
“My toy poodle Snuggles loves spending time with Susan and her two kid's. Her dog Luna is supper sweet and loves all animals. I don't leave Snuggles with anyone but I feel save leaving her in Susan's Care.”
10. Sarah P.
About: Ever since I was little I have loved all kinds of animals and was that child who wanted to "save" all the injured wildlife I found. Pets can bring so much joy and love and I want to share that love so that I can help others take care of their fur babies the same way I would want someone to take care of mine! I recently lost my cat and I have had dogs in the past as well! Unfortunately I am unable to keep pets in my own home full time right now so thats how I got started with Rover! I will treat all pets as if they were my own, with love and care! I work 8 to 4:30 Monday through Friday but I am able to check on animals during the day as well! I am totally free on weekends! I can adapt to any pet needs that may be required! More active pet? Great, let's go play and go for walks/runs! More reserved pet? No problem, I'm all for Netflix and puppy cuddles! I am a quick learner so if your pet has specific needs as long as you show me what needs to be done, I can do it!

12. DeAndrea P.
About: I have a lifelong passion for animals, starting when I was 11 with my first puppy, which sparked my journey into pet care. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, and even amphibians. I’m confident in handling pets with different personalities and needs, and my compassionate, attentive approach ensures each pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved. What sets me apart is my commitment to understanding each pet’s unique requirements and routines. I adapt to their needs, helping them thrive and keeping them engaged. My priority is creating an stress-free, joyful experience for pets and peace of mind for their owners. I’m currently in school part-time, which gives me the flexibility to schedule pet care around my classes. My coursework allows me to plan my availability each week, so I can dedicate focused time to caring for pets. I’m committed to providing reliable, attentive care, and I make it a priority to ensure each pet’s needs are fully met within my schedule. I live in a secure, pet-friendly apartment within a gated community, ensuring that pets are safe and can’t wander off. We have a dog park nearby where I can take dogs for walks, giving them a chance to exercise, explore, and enjoy fresh air in a controlled, safe space. I also have a young son who absolutely adores animals, so pets will have plenty of playtime and companionship. I’m committed to maintaining a safe, positive environment for every pet, treating them like family and making sure they feel comfortable and loved in my home or my client’s home.
13. Allie P.
“Allie was my dog sitter for many years in her middle and high school years. She was very responsible and my dogs loved her. While I was on vacation one year, there was an unfortunate event with one of my dogs and she handled it very well. She kept her cool and got her to a vet and patched up. I was always pleased with how Allie was with my home and dogs. I recommend her highly.”
14. Alexandria M.
About: If you treat your cat/dog like they’re your own child, we will get along great. I look forward to loving on your fur baby soon! I’m a photographer during the summer time and trying to fill my schedule during the cold season in Florida! I’ll have plenty of time to care for your fluffy dudes! Long walks, play time, frequent potty breaks, and belly rubs/ear scratches are a must. I have a standard poodle named Darling and she is the most loved girl on the planet. I’d love to extend my love for animals to you and your precious pups/cats!

“We always struggled when we had to leave our beloved dog Sophie behind bc of schedules or a trip. However, Erin made it so much easier for both Sophie and us. Compassionate and reliable with a sincere love of animals, I would highly recommend Erin. DeAnn C”

“Sean is a huge animal lover. He cares about animals and treats them with kindness & love. He takes excellent care of them. I highly recommend him for all your pet care needs.”
17. Amy S.
“Amy is my wife. When I married her 20 years ago, she let me know we would never be without pets in our marriage. While this has been true, I’ve been surprised by the animals that have showed up in our house. While working as a vet tech in GA, Amy brought home newborn opossums to try to get to live after they were abandoned by their mother.. She’s brought home a kitten that was smaller than my thumb. We had a dog have puppies and Amy gave a stillborn puppy mouth to mouth. To say Amy is a wonderful and loving caregiver is an understatement. Amy has over 26 years of experience as a vet tech. She takes care of our menagerie and I know she would treat your pets like her own.”
18. Caitlin O.
“If there ever was a more loving caring person I've never met them..ive worked with high end horses all my life as has Caitlin. She's honest trust worthy and very attentive and observant and knowledgeable...id trust her with my grandbaby....i know she loves dogs and they love her..”
19. Kelly O.
“I’ve known Kelly over 10 years and she is the most kindest person I know. She has a couple of fur babies of her own and treats them like they’re her children. She is very responsible and caring for both humankind and animals. Kelly is a nurse and with that being said, you have to have compassion and that’s what she has. Thank you, Jessica R.”

“Very satisfied with the service will definitely book again recommend her to all my friends and family with fur kids my kids loved her too”
