“Kat took great care of our two dogs over a long weekend. One is an older Labrador, and Kat seemed to manage all the medications, frequent walks, assists up and down the stairs, etc. with composure and caring! The house looked great, and the dogs had obviously been well taken care of. I recommend Kat highly and without reservation!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 8 my family and friends always ask me to take care of walking ,feeding , and administrating medicine . I work at the Easton Elementary i usually get off anywhere between 3:55-4pm so I can do check ins and or walks Monday through Friday after I get off from work on the weekends I have a very flexible schedule so I can do anytime I had 2 dogs they passed away this year due to older age couple of months ago but I have a backyard with a closed off fence top to bottom so your pets will be very safe and have a good yard to run around and stretch

About: My dog passed and I miss her company! So I love having visitors to keep me company and play with while working from home :) Work from home, I'm free to walk the dogs first thing the the morning, around noon and anytime in the evening and spend the whole day with them if needed :) Quiet home, no children, no smoking, no other dogs or cats - just fish n two birds, half way fenced Yard, but very safe. We can walk around the neighborhood, there is a park down the street as well and the back yard.

“Chloe is a great sitter. She communicated with me every day and spoiled Lucy rotten. Highly recommend”

About: I've always been the go-to gal for my friends and family who need care for their pets. I've made many furry friends over the years. I'm a freelance writer with lots of freedom to come and go, so my schedule is pretty flexible. If you need pet care on short notice, I'll do my best to accommodate. Your pet can enjoy the comfort of its own home while I come over and cater to their needs. We'll become the best of friends!

“Mya was fantastic. She spent 4 nights dog sitting in our home with our older dog. She updated us with pics and couldn’t have been more professional. Highly highly recommend!”

About: I love dogs and I love spending time with them and playing with them! I love to snuggle or lay close with them and make sure they are comfortable at all times. I love playing with them and wearing them out so they sleep good at night! I love walking them and seeing how excited they get when someone comes to see them! I have dog sat many of dogs from very small to very big and I don't have a type, I love all sizes, shapes, and more! I have had a dog my whole life and I can't ever get enough of them. I have been told that I am good at dog sitting and their pets are always great when they return!

About: Before joining Rover I mainly provided my services through word of mouth. I have experience with providing basic medical care for dogs and cats, and training experience including potty training and easing separation anxiety. I have vast experience and knowledge on various breeds and their specific needs, and really just love being able to have the time and availability to be able to provide these services. They say a dog is a man’s best friend, but in my case, a dog has always been a woman’s best friend! I offer dog sitting, walking, training and boarding at my home as well. I am brand new to the app but I do have plenty of references and want to make all owners feel just as comfortable as I want to ensure their pets will feel with me! I currently work a part-time job from my home, so I have a flexible schedule and able to meet any needs your pet has. I am available everyday, all hours mainly, and can accommodate you and your pets schedule! In my home all pets are welcome. I have plenty of walking trails and a back yard for pets that stay at my home. I typically will customize the walks, food, bathing etc depending on the needs of the pet and what works best for them and the owner.

About: I got my first dog ever a decade ago and I raised him to be perfect, with no professional training for either of us. Then, I quit my ten year career in digital marketing to follow my passion and work entirely with dogs. I worked as a bark ranger at Bark Social and made dog safety my top priority, drastically reducing humping and the ensuing scuffles. I loudly advocated for a transformation of safety rules while I worked there. I volunteer at BARCS and am aiming to get advanced training for different dog behavior needs. Howie is my top reference. I adopted my second dog (Shadow) after instantly bonding with her at my old job. Shadow is bonkers and her parent has health issues, so Shadow needed a home where she can be her true self. Dogs are my world and I will give your pet all the love and affection they deserve (which is all of it because they are perfect). *just bought a house so boarding and daycare will reopen in September* Dogs run my life and I wouldn’t have it any other way. The only thing I can see myself doing for the rest of my life is working with animals. I’m all in so I’m available most hours and most days. I’m literally with dogs 95% of my life so dogs are my daily routine. My dogs will love becoming best buddies with any pet that boards or does daycare with them! All boarding and daycare clients will have an apple AirTag tracking chip affixed to them for the duration of our time together (if wearing a collar). I use a hands free leash attached around my waist so they’re stuck with me. I also use their handheld leash as a backup. I have a private fenced back patio, so there is always a secure outside area for your dog. My house is a few blocks from Patterson park, giving them plenty of outside opportunities. My training style is radical love. Your pets will know they’re cared for and will get plenty of positive reinforcement from my end! I have two extremely friendly dogs, so there will always be friends for your pet. Dogs run my household and life revolves around them. Your dog is in safe and loving hands! Please bring a collar for tracking. I prefer using both harnesses and collars when taking them for walks, but one or the other is required. You will also need to bring any food or other things necessary for your dog. I only have Shadow’s crate at this time, hopefully with another coming soon, so also bring your crate if your dog is crate trained. They won’t need one if they don’t typically use one though! I love this community and plan on staying here for the rest of my life. You’ll have a dog guy for life!

About: My older brother used to breed South African Mastiff’s and train different breeds. I’ve been blessed to learn the difference between dog breeds, how they communicate to each other and their owners, and understand what needs their personalities require. I also help my sister with her husky and they are a bit much lol, so that’s a bonus in experience! It is my goal to deliver attentive and dependable care to every paw! My schedule as of right now is quite flexible since i’m working part time as an Esthetician. I decided to join rover to bring more fulfillment into my weekly routines. I have a big field next to a playground in my townhouse complex where the neighborhood dogs hang out. I also have fenced back yard & covered outdoor patio if being around other dogs aren’t an option. I like to keep anything at reach away from pets , while giving them space to roam freely, unless requested otherwise. As for cats I like to keep a closer eye on because they are quite curious so while giving them their space, I like to check in on them often.

About: What sets me apart is my commitment to providing personalized, compassionate care for every dog I meet. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and set of needs, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. I have experience working with puppies and senior dogs, including helping reinforce basic training, maintaining consistent routines, and adapting care to different energy levels and mobility needs. Whether it's encouraging good leash manners, practicing basic commands with young dogs, or providing patient, gentle care for older pets, I focus on creating a positive and stress-free experience. I believe in clear communication, reliability, and treating every dog as if they were my own. You'll receive regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your pet is getting attentive, dependable care from someone who truly enjoys spending time with animals. I currently offer dog care services during evenings and weekends, making me a great option for busy professionals, families, or anyone who needs dependable care outside of regular business hours. I'm available for evening walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays (if applicable), and weekend pet sitting. I strive to be flexible and work with your schedule whenever possible to ensure your pet receives the care, attention, and exercise they need. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my priority is creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. I follow your pet's regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special care instructions. I provide plenty of attention, affection, and exercise to help your pet feel happy and secure. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat your home with the utmost respect, keep everything clean and tidy, and provide regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. If your pet stays in my home, they'll receive a welcoming, supervised environment with lots of love, enrichment, and individualized care to help them feel right at home.

About: I don’t feel it’s difficult to follow the instructions that the owners give, and that is what I am there to do. I want the animal to be comfortable while waiting for you to come home. I interact with their needs and especially if special instructions are needed. My weekly schedule would revolve around what time the job is needed by the customer. I’m very flexible. I’m retired. Still have lots of energy for easy stuff like watching puppies and kitties. It is easy for me to listen to what the owner wants to do when caring for the deeds of the animal. I’m familiar with creating. I am familiar with letting out into a fenced yard. I am familiar with walking older animals.

About: Hi! I’m Katelyn, and I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life. Growing up, my family always had a full house of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, ferrets, fish, and even a lizard. We also bred show Cocker Spaniels, where I learned the fundamentals of animal care early on by helping to feed, clean, and train the puppies. In high school, I worked at a horse breeding ranch, gaining hands-on experience with halter and lead training. This taught me a great deal about reading animal body language, building trust, and handling large animals with calm, quiet confidence—skills that translate perfectly to walking and managing dogs of all sizes. As an adult, I adopted my own dog, Karma, who had been abandoned on the street. Because of her background, she came to me with significant fears of men and other dogs. With patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, I successfully socialized and trained her from scratch. She blossomed into a wonderful, confident, and loving companion who stayed by my side for 12 beautiful years before passing away in 2022. While I still miss having a pup of my own, my heart is ready to share my love, patience, and expertise with new furry friends. I am currently living in Arlington, VA, and am immediately available to help care for your beloved cats and dogs. Pet care is a top priority in my daily routine, not an afterthought. Because I currently have a highly flexible schedule, I am readily available for mid-day dog walks, morning or evening drop-in visits, and weekend care. I intentionally plan my day around my clients' needs so I am never rushing. Whether it’s a quick lunchtime potty break or a longer evening visit, I build ample time into my schedule for play, affection, and thorough clean-up, ensuring your pet gets my undivided, stress-free attention. Since I exclusively provide care in your home, my top priority is maintaining your pet’s safe, familiar environment. I treat your home with the utmost respect and security: I am meticulous about following your specific instructions for locking doors, securing gates, and managing house alarms. Drawing on my professional background in highly detail-oriented environments, I am exceptionally organized and observant. I strictly adhere to your pet’s established routines for feeding, walking, and any medication needs. I also prioritize cleanliness (such as prompt litter box scooping and sanitizing food/water bowls) and keep a close eye on your pet’s behavior and appetite. If I notice anything out of the ordinary, I will communicate it to you immediately. You can trust that your home and your pet are in safe, responsible, and highly attentive hands.

About: My name is Taylor and I am a veterinary technician servicing the DMV area. I have been working with dogs specifically since I was 15 and cats since I was 18. I personally have a cat and have had dogs in the past, and I understand the stress put on the importance of finding someone that you can trust to watch your animals while you are away. Safety is my upmost concern and as a veterinary technician and a groomer, I am very experienced in dog and cat care and would love to babysit your little angel! I can't wait to meet you and thanks for visiting my profile! I currently work from home so I have more than enough time to devote to your pet and their individual needs. My hours are not necessarily tied to a desk or computer either, so I am able to do walks freely throughout the day. Depending on the customers request, I am able to accommodate most housing accomodations. There is a room specifically designated in the house for the pet for the duration of the stay, which has toys, beds, food and water as well as a TV. it’s also a daybed for me as well so that I am able to stay in the room with your pet. My backyard is large and it’s open, however I will be keeping pers on-leash anytime they are outside.

“Laila is amazing!! I had a very last minute cancellation, but Laila saved the day! After a video call I was confident that my dog would be well cared for while I was away. She was a great communicator and kept me updated throughout the stay. I appreciate her so much for her help!!”

About: Hello! My name is Kimia & I am currently a student enrolled at Towson University. In my free time I tend to pet sit & house sit for friends and friends of friends … This app broadens my scope to more potential jobs! I have years of personal experience as I’ve had my fair share of pet ownership at my family home growing up. I’ve grown up with dogs , cats , hamsters , birds … you name it. Growing up I would walk my neighbor’s golden retriever for her, his name was Smitty! Professionally I have experience being paid to dog sit while house sitting varying from a few days to a few weeks at a time. I’m currently unemployed as a college student however I am always free to pet sit. I enjoy doing it so I love making time for any opportunities that pop up for me! I am free everyday and can fit pet care into my schedule easily. I will follow whatever guidelines you provide for me while pet sitting in your home! You let me know what your expectations are and I will comply :)

About: My name is Mallorie. I'm a mom. Animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends. I have a Alaskan Malamute. Her name is Carly Rae. I've also adopted five stray cats. They showed up on my door step, and since then I've been taking care of them. Some of my hobbies are, hiking, camping, and swimming. My dog loves hiking with me. I'm excited to get to know your pet and care for them! 🐕 Pets need routines just as much as humans do for a sense of calm and safety. An act as simple as refilling their food bowl at the same time every day is enough to make them feel comfortable in their living space. Proper pet care includes providing a safe and comfortable area. Frequency with letting out to use the bathroom. Making sure that your pet gets regular exercise, such as walks and play time.
