Caroline was super accommodating with our young puppy's (and our) needs. She was up for us walking along with her, so our puppy could get feel more comfortable around her for the first meeting. Definitely will be requesting Caroline again for help with our puppy!

My dog Luna instantly loved Heather, and I felt very comfortable leaving her in Heather’s care for the day. Heather was responsive, timely, and I could tell that Luna was well taken care of and having lots of fun. I would HIGHLY recommend Heather to anyone looking for pet care!

About: My love for animals has been my driving force in life. I’ve been taking care of and been around pets my entire life. I have experience with all types of animals, from cats and dogs, to reptiles and bunnies. I pride myself in how seriously I take caring for other peoples pets, I go above and beyond always, and I guarantee you I will love your pets as much as you. I have a very flexible schedule, I spend most of my time at home or hanging out with family! I do get my brothers off the bus nearly every day, but other than that, my time is spent with animals! I have seven cats and two dogs, so I take their care very seriously. I have a fenced in yard, I feed them the best food, everyone gets so much exercise and love and playtime. I have more litter boxes that I need to ensure that everyone has their own potty. I do so much more than the bare minimum for all of my pets.

About: Whether it’s potty-training the family dog or teaching a hunting dog to retrieve, I’ve been around them for pretty much my whole life. I currently travel for work so it’s just kitty and me for now, but I love helping whomever I can to take the best care possible of their furry family! I travel and work remotely, so I have time throughout the day to dedicate to providing the best experience I can for you and your pet(s)! I treat my clients’ homes like a place of business; courteous, professional, and I endeavor to leave it better than I found it. I’m very thorough when following instructions and will clarify any questions I have before making assumptions.

About: I've owned dogs and cats all my life and have a wealth of experience watching and caring for animals for both friends and family. I'm well-acquainted with the needs and understand the body language of dogs, cats, and birds.

I am well-accustomed to the routine care needed for animal care, with special attention given to ensure that your pet is not bored. Playtime is very important for your animals physical and mental well-being!

About: Hi, I’m Marika! I’m a teacher, artist, mom, and lifelong animal lover. I’ve been caring for animals my entire life. I grew up with dogs and learned from an early age the importance of daily walks, playtime, companionship, and responsible pet care. As an adult, I’ve shared my home with cats and currently care for multiple cats of my own. I offer cat sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking with a focus on kindness, reliability, and individualized care. Living with both dogs and cats has taught me that every pet is unique. I enjoy getting to know each animal’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family members! My flexible schedule allows me to provide dependable dog walks and drop-in visits throughout the week.I understand how important routines are for pets and strive to keep them comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I do not offer pet care in my home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely and make sure pets have fresh water, meals, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I treat every pet and home with care, respect, and reliability.

About: I've had pets in the house for as long as I can remember! Growing up we had dogs of all sizes, cats, turtles, tortoises, fish, and frogs. I have experience with dogs of all breeds and sizes, from Yorkies to Rottweilers, and love them all. I currently have one cat named Olive, and plan to adopt a dog once I'm able to move to a larger space. I'm ready to take care of anything your pet needs - bathroom breaks, cat litter scooping, cleaning up accidents, refreshing water and food, play time, brushing, oral medication, etc. I'm currently working from home a few times per week, so I have a lot more flexibility in terms of scheduling pet care and walks. Summer weekends are typically busy, but if I'm in town I'm happy to help you out. I will always care for your animals as if they were my own. My goal is to make them as comfortable as possible, especially during the first meeting. I'm always on alert for changes in body language and behaviors that may let me know their comfort level. Every pet is different, but I can guarantee that I will treat each as the very best girl/boy there is.

About: In highschool I was very popular in my neighborhood from doing there dog nails, to dog sitting, over night stays, and even medications. Even back in high school I had a part time and school and still made sure the fur babies were taken care of. To this day I still dog sit for my neighbor. I also worked at a doggy daycare for about 6 months then i moved, I learned so much while I was there in that short period of time from learning to gain respect and how to control a group of 15+ dogs . And was in a animal science program in highschool with a mentorship at a clinic, then tried to go to college for my vet tech degree but too expensive(still paying that off). I also do have a very energetic German shepherd who I train every day she knows pretty much everything(sit, lay down, roll over,paw, other paw,high five, spin, heel, center, look, leave it, back up, and wait). I also dog sat for my boyfriend's coworker who had an older pointer who had a seziure not only did I comfort the dog but I called owner asap then vet, I then called off of work. Just because it's not my animal doesn't mean I will love them any less. But the take away from all that is I have a lot of experience in the animal department. I'm currently working part time and have a lot of free time on my hands and love being around animals . I only work wensday-saturday the other days I'm free. But as you can see with my profile I do have my own fur baby but my boyfriend never works nights or weekends so she won't be alone. For the pets at clients housing not only will I respond to you text asap even if I'm busy, I will also ask for guide lines and try to keep your dog on the schedule you have them on consistency is key, especially when a change like you leaving happens. I also am a big over thinker so before I let the dog out if you have a yard I will always make sure the gates are close and secure and make sure there's nothing laying out that would harm them. When I dog sit I imagine as if it's my own dog.

About: About Me: I’m a lifelong dog lover with hands‑on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I grew up with a dog for eight years, and as an adult I’ve continued to care for dogs through family, friends, and Rover. My Experience: - Raised and trained my own German Shepherd from puppyhood with both personal training and help from a professional - Cared for my sister’s two dogs - Boarded multiple dogs in my home through Rover - House‑sat for families and watched their dogs - Provided post‑surgery care, including after her spay - Comfortable giving pills or medications - Confident walking large or strong dogs What I Offer: I love getting outside, playing, going for walks, and making sure each dog feels happy, safe, and cared for. Whether your dog needs exercise, structure, or just some extra affection, I’m here to help. I am currently in between jobs, so I have plenty of time to care for your dog! I go to the gym in the mornings and early evenings. My days are pretty wide open and flexible. I would love to be able to take your dog outside and go for walks. I want them to feel safe and comfortable around me. If I am sitting at your home, then I want to make sure they are in their normal routine and doing the things they enjoy and need on a daily basis.

About: I come from a family who has always had multiple pets at a time, with anywhere from 3 to 10 foster dogs under our care at any given time! I’ve cared for a wide range of dogs from smaller poodles and Shih tzus to much larger retrievers, border collies, and German shepherds. I have experience with cats as well, but much more lengthy experience taking care of dogs of different sizes and temperaments :) I am a med student so my schedule varies in flexibility but I live in a very walkable area and typically spend a lot of time at home studying! I love taking long walks in between classes and studying and would love to bring a furry friend along with me :) As I do have to be in classes some days for a few hours (no more than 3-4 at a time), i am better boarding pets who can be left alone for a couple hours. As for my home, I have plenty of space for them to run around freely.

We have been rebooking Geoff for the last few weeks because he has been such a huge help with our dog (Boomer). He's very considerate and always refills Boomer's food/water bowls when needed. He is really good at informing us if anything out of the ordinary happens and overall good at communication. I love seeing the rover card and knowing they went on a nice walk and Boomer got plenty of exercise. Plus, he takes great pictures of Boomer. I highly recommend booking Geoff for any of the services he offers!

Heather was fantastic with Clifford! She went above and beyond by taking the time to get to know him and earn his trust before jumping right into things. Clifford can be a bit shy with new people, so her patience and kindness meant a lot to us. She was communicative, dependable, and clearly has a great way with dogs. I highly recommend her to other pet parents! 🐾

Justin was fantastic and gave me so much reassurance that Beans was in good hands while I was away. He was knowledgeable with the app so everything was tracked from pick up/drop off time, mileage, how many times Beans used the bathroom, and a great summary of how the walk went. Will definitely be using Justin again!
