“This is the 2nd time Summer has dog sat for me in my home. She’s proactive, quick to communicate and is comfortable with my somewhat reactive but loving pup. I’ve booked her for 2 more trips.”

“We couldn’t be more pleased with Annie as our dog sitter! She took such great care of our high-energy, anxious pup, and we could tell from the start that our dog felt safe and loved in her care. Annie was incredibly communicative throughout her stay, sending us tons of updates, messages, and pictures, which made us feel at ease the entire time. It was clear she went above and beyond to ensure our pup was happy and well taken care of. Highly recommend Annie to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive dog sitter!”

“Sophia did an excellent job! She stayed at our home with our two dogs and everything went just perfectly! We got daily pictures and updates. We highly recommend Sophia!”

“Noelle was fantastic with my shy/anxious buddy. She sent me pictures throughout - mostly of her rubbing his belly or playing in the backyard- He warmed up to her almost immediately. A rare occurrence! Noelle was a great communicator, reliable, and responsible. And, she obviously loves dogs. Five star!”

“Heather was amazing and took great care of our babies, you can tell she loves animals! I also received beautiful pictures from her throughout my vacation and felt relaxed knowing they were in good hands!”

“I was only away for the better part of two days and one night but really appreciated that Chris texted updates and sent lots of pictures letting me know my sweeties were safe and happy. She even washed the sheets and remade her bed before she left!”

About: I have had dogs since I was a kid and have walked dogs and pet sat through high school and college. I am excited to meet your pups! I am home for the summer before I start a full-time job. I have tons of dog walking availability between studying for the LSAT and I am super flexible! I am happy to feed, walk, crate, and play with your pups while you’re away. I love long walks and can follow any directions you leave me.
“Lisa was amazing with Panda! I booked her with less than a week’s notice, and she was incredibly responsive and professional from the start. She took the time to do both a virtual meet-and-greet and an in-person visit beforehand to make sure she and Panda were a good fit and that she was familiar with everything. During the sitting, she kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. She also made sure Panda got plenty of activity, taking him on at least three walks. I would absolutely recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter—I’d definitely book with her again! 🐾”


“Brad did a fantastic job caring for our senior Greyhound in our home during an international trip. He was communicative, responsive, and asked questions when needed to ensure he was providing the best care for our girl. I’m very grateful that Brad’s professionalism allowed us to have a worry-free vacation! And a bonus- the house looks even better than when we left it.”
“Paz looked after our senior dog through a tornado warning and heat wave while we were traveling internationally. Paz went way, way above the call of duty by taking our girl to the vet when she started a hunger strike mid-way through the visit. The vet remarked that Paz was very knowledgable, attentive, and great with our girl. Paz has some sort of gift for getting animals to take medications - hopefully she'll offer a "how to" class at some point! And Paz stays in very frequent contact, sending updates and lots of photos. We are so very grateful for Paz!! She is caring, responsible, and very attentive. We cannot recommend her enough.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life and grew up in a household with multiple dogs at all times. I spent a lot of time helping care for them and became very comfortable handling dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels from a young age. I have experience with daily walks, feeding routines, bathing, cleaning ears, administering medication, and caring for senior dogs or dogs with mobility issues like arthritis and hip problems. I’m also comfortable helping dogs that may need extra patience, attention, or supervision. I recently graduated college and currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting visits. I always prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions provided by owners. I’m experienced with crating dogs when needed, handling dogs on walks, and caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and medical needs.
“Angela was very attentive to the pets and kept me informed with plenty of updates throughout the day. She was very polite and professional - I will certainly book her again in the future.”

About: Hi! My name is Erika, and I’m a dependable, active, and compassionate pet sitter who truly enjoys caring for animals. What sets me apart is my patience, empathy, and attentiveness to each pet’s individual needs. I understand that every dog has a different personality and routine, and I always make it a priority to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m physically active and love going on walks, playing outside, and keeping energetic dogs engaged. I’m also patient and gentle with older pets and am comfortable assisting with senior dog care, including administering oral medications, following feeding schedules, and providing extra attention and reassurance when needed. I’m highly organized, responsible, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I also value communication and will provide regular updates and photos so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals! I am currently available on weekends and Friday afternoons, which allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to your pets. During the week, I am generally more available in the evenings, as I am currently completing an HR internship at a company in West Chester. That being said, I understand that every pet and owner has different schedules and needs, so I am more than willing to be flexible with timing and any other concerns. I’m happy to communicate and work together to create a schedule that is best for both you and your pet! I understand that pets feel most comfortable when they are in a familiar, safe, and stress-free environment. That’s why I currently only offer pet care services in the pet owner’s home. Staying in their own space helps pets maintain their normal routines, feel secure, and experience less anxiety while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, consistency, and communication. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, house rules, and routines to ensure your pet receives the same level of care they are used to every day. I also make sure pets always have a clean, comfortable environment and plenty of attention, affection, and supervision. Building trust with both pets and owners is extremely important to me. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so owners can feel confident and reassured while they are away. My goal is to create a calm, caring, and dependable experience where both pets and owners feel safe, comfortable, and supported.
About: What sets me apart is my variety of experience with pets at every stage of life. I have experience caring for cats as well as dogs, and I’m attentive to their comfort, routines, and any extra care they may need. I also currently care for rescue kittens, so I’m comfortable with young animals who need gentle handling, consistency, and extra supervision. Overall, I provide calm, reliable, and genuinely loving care, treating every pet as if they were my own. 🐾 I have 2 7 month old kittens so daily pet care is very important to me! I give them enrichment time, lots of love, and regular litter scooping and changes. I grew up with dogs, so walking, feeding, and caring for dogs is very important to me! I care for pets with a calm, attentive, and respectful approach, always following their usual routines to help them feel safe and comfortable. In your home i’ll help maintain consistency in their routines. I’ll keep their feeding on schedule, refresh water, provide whatever enrichment your pet needs, any medication administration, and clean up whatever mess they may get into!
About: I’ve had the joy of taking care of many different dogs throughout my life. Growing up I owned my own dog, and over the years I’ve helped neighbors and friends with walking, feeding, and looking after their pets. I love spending time, playing with dogs, and making sure they feel safe and loved! I currently am a full-time student at Notre Dame of Maryland University, so I have classes in the morning and afternoon and am usually open on weekends. I’m happy to work with your schedule the best I can! When caring for a dog in a client’s home I always aim to respect and follow their rules and routines as closely as possible to keep their pets comfortable. I’ll make sure they have their food and water, have potty breaks, and some love and attention! I will also make sure the space is clean and will respect the home as if it were my own.
About: As a lifelong animal person, I’ve provided dependable care for many dogs of friends and family over the past several years. My experience includes walking, feeding, administering lots of love, and opening my home for safe and comfortable stays. I work part-time Monday through Thursday, so I can provide care in the mornings and evenings, with a few hours away mid-day for work. I’m fully available Friday through Sunday for all-day care and walks. I have a fenced-in backyard and a pool for dogs who love to swim. Your pup will also have a built-in playmate with my dog who is very friendly. Plus, I’m right next to walking trails that are perfect for daily walks.
Over 4 pet parents in Thornton have booked house sitting
Thornton pet parents share their Rover experiences
Annie was terrific with our attention-seeking, energetic, and noisy Doberman. She stayed at our house for several days while we were away and took wonderful care of him. Annie sent regular updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind and made it easy to relax knowing everything at home was going well. From what we can tell, our pup may have been even better behaved for Annie than he is for us. 🤣 From the house-sitting perspective, everything was perfect when we returned. Despite rainy weather (and plenty of muddy paws), the house was spotless. We highly recommend Annie and look forward to having her watch our Dobie again.

Danita was the perfect house sitter for Ralphie, he was able to stay comfortable in his own home and she stayed with him the whole time we were gone. Ralphie is getting older and has separation anxiety so Danita was very accommodating. She even watered our plants, collected the mail, and cleaned the bed sheets and towels! We will definitely use her services again!
