Allana was great. She was always on time and was great with my dog. My dog is very shy and doesn’t get comfortable with everyone but warmed up to Allana really fast. She communicated and sent me pictures and updates after every visit. I would highly recommend her.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is a lifetime of genuine, hands-on experience. I’ve been caring for both cats and dogs since I was five years old, giving me an instinctive understanding of their needs, personalities, and comfort cues. Over the years, I’ve also gained experience administering medications safely and confidently, whether it’s pills, drops, or special routines. With me, your pets aren’t just looked after—they’re understood, cared for, and treated like family. I am retired military with 4 of my own cats. I am available Monday through Friday, after 6pm and Saturday-Sunday 8am to 4pm. Adding more animals to my daily routine brings joy to my day. I can care for you fur babies in your home by helping them keep to their normal daily routine. I can offer plenty of attention, love, pets, cuddles and whatever else to treat them like the family they are

About: I have been caring for and watching dogs since I was a young child. Unfortunately, my husband and I are not currently able to get a dog due to the uncertainty of work schedules. Therefore, I decided that there was no better place for me than rover! I would love spending the afternoon walking, playing, hiking, or running with your dog! I have plenty of space for your dog to explore outside, or take them to mini trips to the dog park or to get a pupcup! I grew up with 3 golden retrievers, but have experience caring for pitbulls, dachshunds, boxers, red heeler, pugs, etc. I am also willing to take the time to learn the specific needs of your pet and take the extra step to build a relationship with them to give them the care they need. Please read the "cat care details" to see how I would care for your kitty friends! ☺️ I currently work part time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I offer boarding 7 days a week and pet walking and at home visits in the afternoons after 3 pm or anytime on the weekends! I have an open yard for your dogs to run or explore. Your doggos are free to lounge on my furniture or bring their own beds & blankies to sleep on. When caring for dogs at their home, I will gladly take them on however long of a walk they're used to. (I love walking, running, and hiking).

The best service I could have asked for. Exceeded expectations, sent me updates of my cats, played with them, brought in my mail, took out my trash, watered my plant, and was consistent with times he was able to show up. I look forward to working with him in the future as well! Thank you!

Kaylie was awesome with Asher and Sadie. She had patiences with them as it was storming and they were hesitant to go out. But she took them out a few times after the rain let up a little and they finally did their business. She was on time and provided details and asked lots of questions.

Our sitter canceled last minute and Megan was quick to reply and came out to meet our dog the same night. She exceeded our expectations and made us feel comfortable leaving town without our dog. She also sent lots of pictures. Can't thank you enough!

About: Growing up I was always surrounded by dogs and loved taking care of others when asked. When I used to live in New York I used to help my old boss with walking and taking care of her dogs at home. Aside from that I used to volunteer at a doggy day care and it was beautiful to do it for free because all those loving dogs of all shapes and sizes was the best experience. Now I am willing to take care of other dogs for owners that need to go for a business trip or need to go out for a few hours I would love to come and help because our furry babies deserve love and affection. I will send you photo updates on your pet or even videos of your pet and update you in what they have done throughout the day or those specific hours needed. On weekends I would love to take care of other dogs as I already have my own that love to be outdoors and go for walks in the beach. Loving to have an adventure with your dog just a walk in the park or taking care of them in your own home. I have a fenced backyard that my two dogs love to run around in is very tall and sturdy so any other fur babies can come and play. When my service is needed I'll come with my own hand sanitizer and gloves to take care of your fur babies area of food and water as well as when they need to go potty or number 2. To be mindful of others I will carry my mask and be wary of others when not 6 feet apart when going out for a walk. I'll make sure your fur baby wears their leashes correctly with their harness as I recommend harnesses for their bodies and walk in a safe distance when seeing other dogs in our walks.

About: Along with caring for my own dog, I have previously done odd jobs of caring for other people’s pets. This has mostly consisted of daily check-ins, taking the dog for a walk as well as feeding and playing with them. I do not have any special qualifications besides loving a good long walk and loving to play with any and every dog I meet! I have just graduated as a student athlete from OU and am working nearby. With a very flexible schedule, I look forward to long walks and furry friends! I currently live in a house in a safe, family-friendly neighborhood. My yard is fenced in and big enough to provide plenty of space for an active dog!

About: Hello, my name is Emily! I have 6 years of experience taking care of pets, and would love to help you with your fur babies. I’m currently a stay at home mom so I am home and available 7 days a week unless my schedule states otherwise. We have a female dog, Luna, she is very sweet and good with cats as well as dogs. My family loves all animals and will make sure your pet(s) are not only taken care of but also loved on while you are away. I will only dog sit potty trained pets and I prefer not to use crates if possible. We do have a toddler, she understands boundaries with pets, but if your dog or cat is afraid of or aggressive towards small children we won’t be a good fit. Please feel free to message me with any questions! Thank you ♥️🐈🐕‍🦺 I’m currently a stay at home mom so I am home full time unless otherwise stated on my personal Rover schedule which can be found on my profile :) I have a fenced in yard that the dogs can run around in, any holes have been blocked by center blocks to prevent anyone wanting to escape. We also have baby gates on hand to make safe spaces for your pet in my home!

About: I have had tons of dogs and know how to take care of them, bathe, feed, walk, etc. I trained my dog and could possibly help you with yours! I go to college and have no job. Rover will be perfect for me as a college student. I can walk anytime early or late! I have a large back yard to run and play but no fence. I will check around the house for any hazards, fill water bowls, and comfort your animal(s)

Hayley watched my two dogs for a full week and did an amazing job. She was reliable, attentive, and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Both of my dogs were clearly well cared for and happy when I got home. I really appreciate her kindness and responsibility, and I would absolutely trust her to watch them again. Highly recommend!
