About: Dogs have always been part of my life, I truly can’t imagine a home without one! I’m the proud owner of a four-year-old poodle mix and have spent years training, walking, and learning everything I can from our amazing certified trainer to give her the best life possible. I’ve put so much care, time, and energy into understanding dog behavior, and it’s made me even more passionate about helping other pet parents feel at ease when they’re away. I’m self-employed, which means I have great flexibility in my schedule and can easily accommodate drop-in visits or walks throughout the day. Whether your dog needs a long walk to burn off energy, a quick potty break, or just some company and affection while you’re out, I’ll treat them like my own. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to get to know each pet’s personality, energy level, and preferences so they feel at ease in my care. I’ll follow any instructions you share (feeding, water, meds, etc.) and always send updates and photos so you know how your pup is doing while you’re away.
“Jamie is fantastic! She is an excellent sitter as well as trainer. She is currently helping us with both. She has a gift with anxious dogs and is very knowledgeable about behavior as well. She educated us and collaborated with us on a plan for my dog that is very picky about which humans he trusts. Overall, she is very helpful, kind, and in tune with the specific dog’s needs!”
“Juliette was amazing again for both of our dogs while we were working/ away. We trust her as she takes great care of them and great care of our house! Would definitely recommend Juliette to anyone!”
“Adriana came through for our two dogs and cat once again, with two drop-in visits this week. She is consistently reliable and always sends us updates with pet photos from her visits.”
“We so appreciated having Sierra available to walk and feed our dog after last minute plans to leave town. Sierra was responsive, on time, and provided updates after each visit. We have already booked Sierra for our next trip out of town.”
“This was our first experience with Rover.com, and we were a little nervous about leaving our beloved senior kitty duo in the care of “strangers,” even though Alison and Robert had many exemplary reviews. Whatever hesitation we felt was immediately put to rest when we had our meet and greet. We found Alison and Robert both to be warm and caring and patient, but also incredibly professional and thorough. They asked a lot of questions (and made a lot of notes) about each kitteh’s likes, dislikes, medical and emotional needs, favorite spots and toys, etc. They didn’t blink at hand feeding our toothless Persian rescue, and even succeeded at brushing both cats regularly (a feat we are still marveling at since our efforts have always been met with swats and glares). They even gently removed a tummy mat that we’d been gingerly working on before we left. Incredible! And all of that doesn’t even include the best part of working with them, which was the comforting and informative communication we received after every visit. Each update included the basics like meal and potty status, but also humorous and endearing notes and photos that captured our babies at play and getting lots of love and individualized attention. These photos and notes enabled us to fully enjoy our time away, because we could regularly see how relaxed and happy our pets were. Bonus: many of the shots were so artistic and well done that they rivaled those of a professional photographer! In closing, I would tell anyone considering a booking with Alison and Robert that they truly understand and love animals and know how to cultivate trust. I can tell that our cats really enjoyed their time while we were away, and I bet that they wonder when they’ll get to spend time again with their new friends. Thank you, Alison and Robert. We are so fortunate to have found you!”
“Fast response, and professional setting up the drop-in visits! My dog took to her right away, and was clearly having a great time in the photos she shared. Highly recommend, and hope to have her take care of Bentley again!”
About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life, from cats, to energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience and attention. I’ve had the privilege of raising a dog who lived to 17, giving me hands on experience with both early training and gentle, attentive elder care. I treat every pet like family and tailor my care to their unique needs, personality, and stage of life. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to play with and care for your pets! I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and pet care, and I also offer house sitting on weekends/some weekdays, depending. My open availability means I can easily adapt to your pet’s routine and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide care in your home so your pet can stay in a familiar, stress-free environment and stick to their normal routine. I’m attentive, respectful of your space, and committed to building trust with both you and your pet. Whether I’m walking or caring for them at home, you can count on reliable, responsible, and compassionate care every time.

My family has always owned dogs and as the eldest daughter it has always been my responsibility to walk and care for them. I also worked for an animal rescue for about a year and a half.

I am a full time student and I will work with you to accommodate scheduling. My current availability is anytime friday, saturday sunday. After 1pm on Mondays. Not available tuesdays or thursdays.

“Kaylah was wonderful with our Great Dane during our day trip. She was very accommodating and eager to enjoy her time with our big baby. She sent updates and wonderful pictures. At no point were we not confident that Ellie was in great hands.”
“Naomi did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats, fed them and cleaned the litter boxes. She kept in contact and updated us with pictures, we will definitely ask her to take care of the cats again!”
“Emelia was absolutely amazing with Bean. I will absolutely be asking her to watch her again. She did a wonderful job of making sure she was taken care of while making sure I was comfortable with her care.”
About: Hi, my name is Rachel. I have been around all types of animals basically my entire life, dogs being my favorite of course. I've been around small dogs, average sized dogs and larger dogs. Because I'm a highly energetic person and love to run and play, I will be able to provide a great and fun environment to your pup. Since I've moved from home ( New York ) I am no longer around my family pets, whom I miss very much, Rover gives me an opportunity to make friends with your pup's, so for that I'm extremely greatful and excited to get started. I am eager to meet yourself and your fur child, and I'm even more excited to become their very good friend! ?
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs, including feeding, providing fresh water, and ensuring they get regular exercise through walks. I have looked after my friends dog on multiple occasions, taking responsibility for their daily needs and giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I’m actively looking to walk dogs as I enjoy walking them during the evening time. I’m a teacher so during school year, lm available 3 pm and onwards I am only offering dog walking service since I live in an apartment, it will be very difficult to take care of the dog here.
Strathmore pet parents share their Rover experiences
We cannot recommend Zuzu enough! She has been watching our beloved Foxxy-Freyja for a few years and consistently goes above and beyond. When it began, our girl was going through chemotherapy and required medications and Zuzu did wonderful with her. Not only does she do an amazing job with care, playtime, and providing detailed updates and pictures, but she also helped out by bringing in packages while we were away. It is such a relief to find someone so trustworthy, professional, and genuinely caring. Foxxy-Freyja absolutely adores her, and we can finally travel worry-free. 5 stars!😻😻😻😻😻
Ginnie was able to do drop-ins with our two cats through the Thanksgiving holiday, which we were very grateful for! She was even able to come Thanksgiving day. She was delayed a few times due to snow, but she kept us updated so we knew what was going on. She followed our feeding instructions and the cats were well-cared for while we were gone.
I can't say enough for Julianna. She met all my expectations and my girls loved her. She was a life saver and was able to meet my needs at the last minute. She was prompt and communicated diligently with every visit. She made me feel comfortable leaving my girls. She messaged me when she arrived for her visit and when she left. She notified me of any concerns and what she did with my dogs while she was at the house. I would definitely recommend her for any of your needs. I will definitely use her again. Thank you Julianna
Savannah was fantastic! From her pre visit, daily visits, to the last, she took great care of our German Shorthaired Pointer, Lucy! I was especially impressed with her excellent communication skills! Savannah is an asset to Rover! Without reservation, she would be the person I would want to take care of my pet! We were fortunate! Thanks again, Savannah!
Jennah has cared for our dog, Theo, several times a week since August! She is extremely reliable and great with dogs! She put our mind at ease checking in on him during his neuter and other times that he had an upset stomach. She was always cautious with the weather and would quickly adjust with some active playtime inside if it was too hot or too cold outside. Jennah has cared for Theo since he was a puppy and it will be hard to find someone to replace her!
James was a fantastic cat sitter! He came by ahead of time to meet my cat and make sure they were a good fit, which I really appreciated. Throughout the stay, he sent plenty of pictures every day and kept me updated on food, water, and litter box levels. He was kind, professional, and very communicative. I felt totally at ease knowing my cat was in good hands. Highly recommend!
