“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!”
“Margaret was very kind and attuned with my 2 corgis. They absolutely loved her and would cry around the time she’d arrive because they were so excited to go on a walk with her. Will definitely be using Margaret’s services again!!”
About: My journey in animal care began in 2017 as a kennel technician, and over the past 8 years, I’ve grown into a skilled veterinary assistant with extensive experience caring for dogs, cats and exotic pets of all breeds and temperaments. When I go home, I hug my 2 cats and 2 dogs after a long days work. I also have owned a hedgehog who is now in heaven, and I had the pleasure of growing with and caring for my childhood dog who is also in heaven with my hedgie. From daily walks and enrichment to assisting in exams and treatments, I’ve had the privilege of supporting our furry friends through every stage of life. I’m trained in administering medications—whether it’s a pill, injection, or special diet—and I always prioritize comfort, safety, and trust. Whether your fur baby is playful, shy, or needs a little extra TLC, I bring patience, experience, and a whole lot of love to every visit. I work weekdays 7a-3p, so I am available M-F after 3-3:30p. Saturdays and Sundays I am usually away. I can answer any questions on availability and openings for walks and drop ins! I fully acknowledge that I am entering into your home and that alone is the biggest reason I go above and beyond on building trust with you and fur babies. Safety is my highest priority — I want everyone to feel safe before I ever step foot into your home. I require a meet and greet to start the process; this is to make sure your pet(s) get familiarized with my presence, then I assess compatibility after 1-2 bookings. If I’m concerned about temperament, we will next steps and gauge whether or not we can move forward with future bookings. There are times when pets display signs of stress or protective/territorial behaviors when a stranger enters their home, especially if it’s for the first time. While I’m comfortable caring for an array of temperaments, the last thing I want is your pet to be stressed and unhappy. I am transparent about this process upfront as I prioritize safety for all parties. Upon meeting you and your pet for the first time, I will ask you (many) questions and write all information provided down and go over everything with you before ending the meet and greet session. This will include questions regarding specialized care, diet, temperament, etc. I will also ask for an emergency contact and veterinarian information in the case there is an emergency while you’re not home. For all of my services I make sure to accurately follow all instructions provided with consistent text and picture updates. I NEVER touch anything in your home besides pet-related items disclosed at our meet and greet unless I have permission. After services are completed, I refill all food/water bowls, put back all pet related items such as food and toys where they belong, tidy up if permitted, and give your pets some extra TLC before leaving!
About: I have raised and two feral cats and a homeless puppy born on the Reservation. I have volunteered with animals most of my adult life. Your pet will be well cared for. I'm currently working from home for a local hospital and that gives me plenty of time to care for your pet as well as mine. I can take care of your dog or cat during the day as well as over nights. I have a fenced in yard as well as one friendly dog and two cats. I can separate the cats from your dog if n is needed. My dog loves to play on the yard with other dogs.
“Quinn watched our senior cat and was so patient and relaxed with her. She provided great photos and summaries/explanations on every rover card each day so we knew that our cat was being well cared for while we were gone. She was also very responsive on any messages we sent to her and was very understanding and flexible. We will definitely request to have her watch our cat again if she is available!”
“Amanda was awesome & took good care of my bunny Scottie! She was very thoughtful in updating me and I could tell my Scottie had come to trust her over the week of her drop in visits.”
“Hannah was excellent with my older cat! She was very calm and patient with my cat (Suzy) and Suzy was very comfortable with her! I’ll absolutely try to book with Hannah again if she is available!”
About: I’m new to Rover but not to dogs! I have worked in a veterinary kennel, a daycare/boarding center, completed a PennVet summer program, and volunteered at the SPCA for years. Let me walk your doggies! I love them all. I am free daily until late August, barring my 5-8 pm tutoring shifts, a few weekly appointments, and random engagements. I have lots of energy in the morning so I can do early morning walks if needed. I am very respectful and caring towards others’ animals, spaces and belongings, and would love the opportunity to take care of your pet in your home so that both of you have the least anxiety possible.
“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 been taking care of dogs my entire life. I have experience with puppies, energetic dogs, and elderly dogs. I love to spend my free time outside with my own dog, helping him get more exercise! I am eager to expand my dog experience and to bond with more animals. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have open availability to watch your dogs! I am able to be flexible to find times to walk or take your pup for a potty break! If you require a longer stay, I just need to know at least 2 weeks in advance to ensure my schedule will align. I currently have a Catahoula Leopord Dog, he requires a lot of attention and outdoor time. He has a hard time sharing his space, so I would have to board at the clients home. While visiting at the clients home, I will ensure the pup receives plenty of exercise, cuddles, and as many potty breaks it needs! I have my own transportation so it’s not a problem to commute.
“We left our dog and two cats home for the weekend and Ashley took great care of them! We really appreciated that she did a meet and greet with us prior to the scheduled weekend. We got the chance to show her around the pet stuff in the house and she could meet the pets. We enjoyed getting photo & info updates about each of her visits during the day. Definitely would recommend Ashley!”
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! ?
“Kal took excellent care of our cat Oliver while we were out of town. They were extremely prompt with visits and communications, sent us lots of pictures and updates, and even accommodated an extra visit when our flight home was cancelled. They went above and beyond in caring for Oliver, and he was completely comfortable with them. We highly recommend Kal and will be requesting their cat sitting help again!”
“Amber did two drop in visits with my french bulldog puppy while I was out of town for the day. As a new puppy mom I was nervous and a first-time user of the Rover app. Amber put my mind totally at ease while being away. She kept me updated with their progress and sent pictures throughout her drop ins! My puppy took a quick liking to her and we look forward to booking her again in the future!”
