About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of pets my entire life. I will love and take care of yours like they are my very own. I am currently free for most of the time so your pets are my priority! Week days i’m available for walks, drop-ins for potty breaks and play, and house sitting on weekends. I’ll keep a close eye on your dog when let out for potty breaks, as well as leashing is something I am very familiar with if need be.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for most of my adult life. As a kid I was never able to have pets, so as an adult I’ve always had multiple dogs. I love dogs and enjoy their personalities and fun loving nature. Weekends and holidays are spent at home with the family, and the four-legged family members get plenty of playtime! During the week, I work full-time. Our dogs are kennel-trained and enjoy their downtime during the day. Once home, they’re out and a part of all our evening activities. We have a fenced-in yard where they can run and play non-stop. Our fenced-in yard is an excellent space for our four energetic dogs to run and play. They love to play non-stop, and our kids, who are also dog lovers, enjoy playing along with them.
“Did a good job taking care of the pets. A couple of hiccups but stayed in communication well. Snow storm hit at the end of the week and offered extra help just in case. Much appreciated!”

“Crystal is absolutely amazing. Highly recommend! My pups both loved her instantly and her communication is off the charts! Will use her again no doubt! This was my first Rover experience and I’m sold all because of Crystal! Thank you so much for keeping an eye on my babies!!!”

“Emma did a great job taking care of my two kitties, very reliable & always keeping me updated and sending pictures! I definitely felt comfortable leaving them in her care. I’d definitely book with her again!”

“David was amazing! He accepted our last-minute booking, took great pictures, and even went the extra mile by bringing in our delivered packages. Overall, I will definitely book David again!”

“Danette took great care of my cat while I was out of town for a few days over 4th of July weekend! He was well fed and well loved, and I could tell he was very content despite my being away. I would definitely recommend her, and will look to her again if I need care for him in the future.”

“Ashley and her son Grayson were absolutely wonderful! They took care of my cat Binx for a week and did a fabulous job. Grayson played with Binx twice a day, which I know my mom appreciated Binx being worn out LOL...and Ashley went above and beyond by helping my mom with some stuff as well while here. I can't say enough good things about them. I would definitely use them again :-)”

About: Lifelong animal lover offering reliable dog walking and drop-in visits for dogs and cats. I’ve cared for pets my entire life and previously boarded dogs through Rover, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. In 2017 I was an active Rover sitter and boarded dogs in my home for about a year, working with several families and building repeat clients. During that time I had multiple dogs and cats of my own, as well as young children, so I’m very comfortable managing busy households and different pet personalities. Today I have one dog and one cat of my own and am excited to return to Rover focusing on dog walking and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats. I’m happy to help with: • Dog walking (short or long walks) • Drop-in visits for dogs or cats • Feeding, fresh water, and routine care • Litter box cleaning for cats • Playtime, attention, and companionship • Basic medications when pets are comfortable receiving them I’ve also worked in boarding facilities, grooming salons, and doggy daycares, which gave me experience handling many different types of dogs and temperaments. I’m known for being calm, patient, and routine-focused, and I treat every pet with the same care and attention I give my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a wide-open schedule and can be flexible to meet your pet’s needs, whether it’s daily walks or regular drop-in visits. I primarily drive to visits, so I can reach most locations efficiently. To ensure the best care for your pets, I ask for at least a day’s notice when scheduling or canceling visits. Since this is my main source of income, I can be consistent and dependable, giving your pets the attention and routine they deserve. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. Dogs are always leashed during walks, and I adjust routes or pause if other dogs are nearby to ensure a calm, controlled experience. I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets at once, as long as they get along well. I handle pets with anxiety, aggression, or medical needs carefully, following all instructions from their parents. During drop-in visits, I take my lead from pet parents and follow any guidance provided, ensuring I leave the home exactly as I found it — doors locked, secure, and everything in order. My goal is to provide a safe, consistent, and worry-free experience for both pets and their families.
“What a treasure we have found! Sierra made going out of town for a quick getaway easy! She has great communication, was reliable, and was terrific with our pets! We will definitely use her again in the future!”


“He did amazing with our pups. We have 4 of them and was worried about having someone watch them as this was our first rover experience. We were so happy with the results. We have cameras in our home so we could see everything and he was so good with our dogs. One of them even got sick and he cleaned it up with out hesitation. Thank you!”

“Linda the pet sitter did a fantastic job! She took the time to really get to know each of our three dogs—their unique personalities and quirks. It was clear they felt comfortable and well-cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”

“Morgan has allowed me to transition to my new job with ease, knowing my dog is in good hands during the day. She is incredibly flexible with my schedule and goes above and beyond when I leave her special instructions for the day. I was a little nervous having a stranger enter my home at first, but she not only takes amazing care of my dog, she goes out of her way to keep my home protected when she leaves. I would no doubt recommend her services to anyone!”
