Dorothy took excellent care of our cat while we were away. We really appreciated her detailed updates, pictures, and all of the extra effort she took to make sure our cat felt comfortable. Thank you, Dorothy!!

About: My goal is to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I understand that every animal deserves patience, love, or just some comforting company. I am more than happy to take care of your furry friend(s) all day on weekends or walk them M-F after 5pm. Please message me for more detailed availability if needed. I have been trained with the SPCA in California to handle large and small dogs. Caring for pets brings me joy, and I treat each one as if they were my own—because they deserve nothing less.

We had Amanda come watch our cat Baxter for 9 days while we were away visiting family. Baxter requires meds twice a day along with specific feeding requirements. Amanda was absolutely amazing! She was quick to learn his needs as well as his meds and food requirements. She was wonderful with communication, sent pictures with each visit, and overall went above and beyond for our little guy. I highly recommend Amanda and will definitely be using her again! Baxter adored her and we were so happy knowing he was in good hands.

Maria did an amazing job taking care of our three cats while we were out of town for almost 2 weeks. She was incredibly communicative and spent extra time to make sure our skittish cats were acclimated to her. She went above and beyond and we would absolutely hire her again!

This was my first time using Rover and Sally was just amazing! She came for a meet and greet before we left for vacation, she was very kind, friendly, and trustworthy! My dogs all looked very happy in all the photos she sent and she kept an eye on my chickens, ducks, and ferret too! I’ll definitely be using her for any future visits!

About: I have a genuine love for animals and experience caring for both dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, administering basic care, and creating a calm, safe environment. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive to detail so your pets feel secure and you feel confident while you’re away. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, so I naturally build it into my everyday routine. I make time each day for walks, playtime, and plenty of attention, and I’m available throughout the week and on weekends to keep pets happy, comfortable, and on their normal schedule. I treat every client’s home with the same respect and care as my own, creating a calm, secure environment for your pets. I follow all instructions closely—from feeding routines to home preferences—and make sure doors, gates, and safety measures are always properly secured. I’m attentive, dependable, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pets and home are in good hands.

My Iverson is an handful to say the least but Jessica is well equipped to handle him. Iverson jumps, nips and tugs on the leash like hr is playing tug of war. She displays extreme patience and goes above and beyond to ensure Iverson is safe. Also she stays the whole 30 minutes, I really like that!!!

Zaylie was absolutely amazing with Philly! From the very first walk, it was clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. She was reliable, communicative, and always kept me updated with photos and notes, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Philly came back happy, exercised, and clearly well taken care of every time. You can tell Zaylie takes pride in what she does and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!

About: I love all animals from dogs, to chickens, to elephants! My fur baby went to the rainbow bridge last year. He lived a long happy life. I’ve grieved & now it’s time to heal. That’s why I’m starting this journey on here with you and your animals. I have so much love & affection to give to animals. I miss that “fur friend” connection & would love to become besties with your babies! The only pet my household has is a bearded dragon. Also if you’re traveling, I am located close to the airport. I will follow whatever instructions you may have and I do not mind keeping communication open with text and pictures. I have open availability. I’m willing to work with you and your needs. I can do holiday stays, emergency stays, etc. whatever you need . I live in a spacious 3 bedroom home & I have a huge fenced in back yard. I can create your fur babies if needed, but I’m always home. A typical Doggy Day includes waking up, going outside in the morning , feeding your fur baby whatever regimen they are on. Throughout the day we go from inside and outside, Playing and cooling off 😊 Whether your fur baby is active & loves to play fetch outside or is a cuddle buddy watching Tv on the couch, I’ll tend to whatever activities they like.

About: I've taken care of a bit of everything except birds. I've had dogs my entire life with the occasional cat or set of rats and would love to meet as many more as I can! I'm a stay-at-home husband whose life centers around his five dogs. Expect play, treats, and a welcoming environment all-around any day of the week. I have a fenced backyard with cameras that alert with motion. Dogs go outside frequently and will never not have a toy available for all.

About: I've always been great with animals. Whenever I was 10 I had a tuxedo cat who needed medication for failing kidneys, I was the only one who could administer her pills swiftly. I've dealt with high energy dogs like labs and stubborn dogs like my 100 pound pitbull. My schedule is flexible at the moment. My kids are grown and I'm looking to stay actively busy. I love outdoors so walks and playing outside would be ideal. I am an empathetic and nurturing person. I have always cared for animals and people alike. I have raised 5 daughters and 3 are in the army.

Strongly recommend Stewart. He was attentive to the needs of my two cats and effectively communicated any questions he had about providing care. I plan on asking for his help in the future. I would HIGHLY encourage you to hire him.

Sally so graciously accepted my request at the last minute. This was our first time using Rover services and are so happy that we found her! Murphy was happy to see her too, and showed her all the love while she was spending time with him. All around a win-win. Will DEFINITELY call her again. Thank you Sally!
