Sara did an excellent job with my 3 Labrador retrievers. She did a 30 minute drop in and walked them, played with them and walked them again. It was perfect. She followed my instructions, communicated well and sent photo updates. I know my pups had a good time with her and they were well cared for. l would definitely recommend her to others.

Emily is the best! She did drop-in visits with our puppy. She is reliable, communicated well with us, and our puppy enjoyed his walks and play time. We are so happy she was available and will call in her again.

Tabitha is wonderful! So thoughtful and took the time to really follow my dog’s lead to make sure he feels super comfortable (he is really shy). She gives great updates after each check in and leaves everything just as it was left! Would absolutely recommend!

About: I grew up with German Shepherds, so I would say I am very comfortable with dogs! I have helped watch and walk, friends and families fur babies; primarily cats and dogs. I am also comfortable with special needs dogs, as I have cared for a deaf and partially blind dog. I currently own a cat, and am confident in my skills in caring for cats. I am off by 3pm on week days, so I am happy to stop by after to check on your fur baby, and give them some affection and attention in anyway necessary. My cat is an indoor only cat, so I ensure he is safe inside at all times and provide him with plenty of toys to entertain him and give him fulfillment, especially when I’m not home.

Leanne is an extremely conscientious pet sitter. She spent extra time with our dogs to ensure they were comfortable with her prior to us going out of town, and was extremely communicative the entire time we were away. We will definitely trust our dogs in her care in the future and are so glad we found her on the Rover app!

About: I have grown up with both cats and dogs, and then when I was able to I had two large breeds of my own for many years. Currently, we have a 2-yr old Bernese mountain dog and an older cat at home. I’m a teacher with a very open availability during summer and would love to fill it with taking care of your dogs - any breed but happy to provide confidence for high energy larger breeds. I’m a full time teacher, so while weekdays do work, it would need to be around that sort of schedule during the school year. I can provide short term care on weekdays and more intensive care on weekends. During summer months I am wide open to provide care as needed. I’m an avid runner and LOVE to be outside so I’m happy to provide short or long walks for your animal. During summer months, my availability is based largely on your needs.

About: I love all kinds of animals! I have a pointer/lab mix and mini dauschund of my own, and they are my tag alongs for all sorts of adventures! I also had a variety of frogs, lizards, hamsters, guinea pigs when I was growing up. Most notably, my bearded dragon Cricket who lived to be 16 years old! Additionally, I have experience pet-sitting and dog walking for family members as well as friends and neighbors. I have helped friends with their chickens and other farm animals as well! I live a very active lifestyle and love hiking and swimming, both alone as well as with four-legged friends. I am currently running a small bagel business 2-3 days a week. Outside of a select couple of mornings, my availability is fairly open and flexible! I have a lot of experience with energetic dogs and bring a calm energy to my interactions with them. I respect animals personal space and allow them to approach me when they are comfortable. Most dogs i have met are very comfortable with me because of body language!

About: I’ve been taking care of the dogs I have owned, and family and friends since I was around six years old. I love dogs and animals, and I enjoy meeting new ones and helping people in need. I’m currently working part-time, which means I’ll have plenty of time to take care of or walk some dogs. I’m happy to help out with animals! Feeding, letting them out to drink water, and other basic dog care tasks are essential. I love dogs and want my dog to be happy, so naturally, I’d want yours too!

About: Hi, I’m Aubrey 👋 I offer calm, attentive, in-home pet care designed to help your pets feel safe, comfortable, and completely at ease while you’re away. I specialize in multi-pet households and have a natural ability with animals who need a little extra patience—whether that’s senior dogs, shy personalities, or pets who are used to a slower, more grounded environment. • 10+ years of experience with a wide range of temperaments • Especially attuned to anxious, sensitive, or senior pets • Experienced with multi-pet homes and complex routines • Respectful, clean, and mindful in clients’ homes • Consistent updates so you always feel connected and reassured 📸 I’m not just here to “watch” your pets—I create a steady, comforting presence so their routine and emotional world stay intact. Pet care is a central part of my daily life, and I intentionally keep my schedule spacious so I can be fully present with the pets in my care. I prioritize consistency, calm routines, and quality time—especially for pets who thrive on familiarity and one-on-one attention. All bookings, communication, and payments are handled through Rover for ease and peace of mind 🐾 Your pet’s emotional and physical safety are my top priorities. I’m especially mindful with: • Senior pets who need slower pacing or extra care • Shy or anxious animals who take time to warm up • Maintaining your pet’s exact routine, environment, and comfort cues I approach each home with deep respect—keeping things clean, calm, and consistent so your pet feels secure and your space is cared for.
