About: I genuinely love animals. I am the type of person who stops everyone and asks if I can pet their dog. I do have professional training in taking care of animals; I worked at an animal rescue and a doggy daycare! I am 22 years old and I have my own transportation and will work very hard to take care of your pet! I have experience walking dogs of all ages and sizes. I also have experience taking care of dogs of all sizes and ages. Including animals with special food requirements, feeding instructions and giving medications such as pills. I have some training in dogs with temperament issues. I also have experience in taking care of cats, fish and reptiles if needed. I am currently a masters student so my schedule is all over the place, just ask me if I’m free and I’ll let you know! I have my schedule in advance normally. I have experience in crating dogs if that’s what’s required for your pet. My own dogs now are free roamers around the house so I have experience with excited or guarded animals when entering the home. I like being given clear directions so I know how to best care for your fur babies!

“Great with Zulu! Nadia has been absolutely wonderful walking our standard poodle, Zulu. She keeps a great pace and covers a solid distance on every walk—which is exactly what Zulu needs to stay healthy and happy. You can tell she truly enjoys being with dogs, and Zulu always comes back from their outings relaxed and content. Nadia is punctual, professional, and communicative. Highly recommend her if you're looking for someone who treats your dog like their own and actually gets them moving!”

About: I have a few dogs at my house already but I've also been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I used to volunteer at rescues. My family also has many pets and farm animals I help take care of these include fish, hamsters, and budgies. I'm currently in college right now studying life science but I have plenty of free time. During that time I'd like to take care of animals. I like to take care of your pets however you like them taken care of. I'll wake up early for morning walks or stay up late to clean up after them.

About: Energetic person looking to take care of energetic dogs. I love animals and love to take care of them. I’ve owned dogs my entire life. I’ve had a variety of breeds like Chihuahua, German Shepherds, Beagle, Terrier, Retrievers. Many of my pets were abused and shelter animals. I have experience with both large and small dogs. I’m comfortable with Mastiffs and Rottweilers. Most dogs love me even ones that are typically shy around strangers. You won't be sorry hiring me. I will take care of your dogs like they are my own. I think they can sense when a good person is around. I think dogs are one of the smartest and most intuitive animals around. I love to play with dogs and love taking them on walks. We can even play fetch or cuddle, whatever they like. You can trust me with your dogs and have no worries they are being taken care of properly. I will be your pet’s BFF. My schedule is flexible and I am a non-smoker.

About: I've always had dogs my entire life and have always been the one (mainly) to take care of them. Feeding, walking, playing, bathing, nail trimmings, cleaning up after, you name it and I was the one to do it. And I loved it! It helped me to feel a closer bond to the sweet babies and I didn't mind. Whatever they needed I was happy to offer! This carries into today as well. Happy to help any and all furry creatures! I work early in the mornings so after I get off around 3 (and after a quick nap lol), I'm completely open! Even though I start my day right as the sun rises, I'm still a bit of a night owl so I can care for your animals all the way until 11 pm. Respect for your home and your pet's routine is very important to me. If sitting within your residence, just let me know any important information and house rules and guaranteed I'll follow by them.

About: What truly sets me apart is a lifetime of genuine love and connection with animals. Growing up with a yellow lab and having always shared my life with at least one dog or cat since I was five, animals aren't just a job for me – they're family. This lifelong experience means I understand the nuances of their care, from playful puppy energy to the gentle needs of senior pets. I've also had the wonderful opportunity to care for the dogs of family and friends for years, providing everything from daily walks and feeding to lots of love and comfortable boarding for up to three dogs at a time. Now, as a devoted mom to my own two dogs and one cat, I bring that same level of adoration, attention, and responsibility to every pet in my care. This summer, with my time off, I'm genuinely excited to offer you reliable support and shower your precious babies with the same love and care I give my own. You can rest assured they'll be in an environment where they're truly cherished and understood. With my summer off from my studies at William & Mary and the flexibility I have while planning my wedding, pet care isn't just something I fit in – it's a joyful and central part of my daily life right now. My schedule is very open, allowing me to be readily available for walks, playtime, feeding, and any other needs your furry family members might have. Whether I'm caring for your precious pet in the comfort of your own home or welcoming them into mine, my focus is always on their complete well-being and happiness. In your home, my goal is to adapt to your pet's established routine, providing enjoyable walks around the neighborhood or on local trails, engaging playtime with their favorite toys or some cozy cuddle time, and ensuring they receive the same loving and attentive care they usually get. If your furry friend is staying with me, they'll have the run of a secure, fully fenced yard perfect for safe outdoor fun. We'll enjoy leisurely walks through my pet-friendly neighborhood and explore the nearby trails and parks. Plus, they'll have the added bonus of friendly companionship from my own two well-socialized dogs. Your pet will be treated like a cherished member of my family, receiving plenty of affection, playtime, and a comfortable, secure home away from home.

“When I needed someone to walk my dog and feed him dinner on short notice, Jeffrey quickly responded to my request and confirmed their availability to help. He was friendly, easy to work with, and asked questions about my dog to ensure he would have a good experience. He shared a picture of our happy pup during his walk despite the rainy weather and asked where he could find a towel to dry him off before letting him back into the house. I'll definitely ask Jeffrey & Megan J. to care for our dog the next time he needs a walk or boarding. Highly recommend.”

About: I grew up riding horses, so I have always been in some kind of environment with animals. I have had cats and have taken care of goats as well as chickens and young animals. I currently have had two Golden Retrievers growing up. My past neighbors frequently had me dog sit their two dogs, one German Shepherd and one Shih Tzu, so I have had experience with big and small dogs. I know the basics (feeding, cleaning up after them, washing them, playing with them, etc.) and I also am very good at connecting with animals. Each animal has its own personality and I believe that if you treat an animal with care, they will return the love. I work remote full time, so I have time to spend with your furry friend! My mornings and evenings are free with flexibility in the middle of the day. On the day-to-day, we would take a morning and evening walk, and I would be able to take them out for potty breaks whenever needed.

I am able to walk dogs most of the day, outside of my fb conditioning from 8-11am. I am very flexible and don’t need a ton of advance notice I just want to walk but am super respectful and reliable. I will treat your house and pets like gold and love the exercise too

About: My name is Haley! I’m an all around dog lover. I’m working for Rover purely for my love of dogs. I have been house sitting and pet sitting for over 8 years now. I have cared for animals from guinea pigs, to dogs, to chickens. I will provide your dog with a loving and friendly face while you’re away!! Willing to watch your pet for short trips, or even trips lasting a week or longer. You deserve peace of mind while on vacation. Know your pet will be in good hands. My years of experience have prepared me for all sorts of dog sitting and house sitting situations! Give me a call if you have any questions! I work part time, so I will have plenty of time to check on your pets every 4-8 hours minimum. I have a dog of my own, so I will need to check on him regularly as well. He gets along with most dogs of varying sizes. In your home I will implement your dogs routine as closely as I can within the demands of my own work schedule! This includes feeding times, walk routes/schedules, medications, sleeping arrangements, etc. I will do what I can to ensure your pet feels comfortable and secure.

About: I’ve grown up always surrounded by beloved pets from chihuahuas to hamsters to greats danes! From a young age, I knew how to be responsible for walking, feeding, and bathing our family’s pets. I also participated in Cat 4-H during middle school, which enabled me to learn a lot about caring for cats! I’ve petsit before for family friends and neighbors, including walking dogs, routinely feeding cats, and house sitting! I’m currently not working while studying, so I have extended availability for pet care. I can provide care every few hours if you are gone, or provide a consistent walking time every week if needed! I’m unfortunately unable to host pets in my home since I have two cats and two dogs who are a bit timid around other animals. But I’d happily spend time in any clients home with their pets and if someone would be comfortable I’m happy to drive dogs to trails or parks to run around and explore with me! As far as cats go, I would love to sit and socialize with your kitties for all the time they need and clean litter boxes routinely as I do at home! I’m flexible to different types of feeding schedules and would be happy to learn all about your beloved companions!

About: I recently worked at a dog daycare facility, which has provided me with extensive knowledge and hands-on experience in caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. This professional experience gave me skills to handle various dog temperaments and prioritize their safety and well-being. In addition to my professional experience, I have also taken care of a few dogs and cats in my neighborhood. This shows the trust and confidence that others have in my ability to provide exceptional care for their beloved pets. I’m dedicated to building lasting relationships with both you and your pet, ensuring open communication and peace of mind. This summer, I’m available on weekdays and after 4:30 PM on weekends due to my work schedule. However, I’m happy to request off on weekends if your pet requires more regular walks or care. I provide personalized care tailored to your pet's needs. This includes following their feeding schedule, engaging in playtime and exercise, administering medication if needed, and providing regular updates.
