“Kelly did a great job with our senior cat who has special food and insulin needs. She is super responsive and reliable! I will definitely book Kelly again next time we travel.”
“I am SO glad we found Ashley on Rover! She was excellent with our kitten and made her feel loved while we were away for a week. My kids and I loved seeing the update each night with photos to see how Buttercup was doing. I look forward to future bookings with her whenever we need to have the animals watched by someone trustworthy. 100% excellent!!! ♥️♥️♥️”
“Lark stayed for a week at our home and was so caring of our furry baby Kevin. Kevin's not always predictable and they made good friends with loving belly rubs, etc. She shared pictured throughout the week. We will definitely be calling her back to see if she can stay again when we plan our next trip! Thank you so very much!”
About: I’m a Registered Nurse with a strong passion for animal care. I have experience working with a wide range of pets, including those with special needs. Whether it's administering medications and injections or simply providing attentive, compassionate care, I’m committed to supporting the health and well-being of your pet, whether they have fur, feathers, or scales.! 🐾💉💖 I work flexible daytime hours Monday through Friday, which allows me to offer early morning check-ins, afternoon walks, and evening care. Please note that Rover’s morning time slot is set from 6:00 AM to 11:00 AM, but I’m specifically available from 6:00 AM to 8:30 AM during weekdays. I’m also available all weekend long to give your pet the attention and care they deserve! I share my home with two senior dogs who enjoy sunbathing and cozy naps, so I understand the importance of meeting each pet’s unique needs. I'm experienced in caring for multiple animals with different routines and preferences, and I make sure every day includes a balance of walks, interactive play, and downtime for cuddles and relaxation. I also have hands-on experience with special needs pets and am comfortable administering medications, including injections. I focus on creating a calm, reassuring environment—especially for animals who may be nervous or require extra care. Whether your dog thrives on long walks, a lively game of fetch, or quiet time on the couch, I’ll tailor their care to match their personality and routine. You can feel confident knowing your pet will be treated with the same attention and affection I give my own.
About: I've been taking care of dogs my entire life. My father bred labradors, and I've been sitting for my grandparents for the last 15 or so years. I recently started sitting for a friend and have decided to make it a steady source of income I'm an artist that wants to use dog sitting and walking to have a steady flexible income that allows me to be creative in my personal life. Our pitbull Stella gets the best that we can provide her. As a genuine dog lover, I will provide the best care that is in my ability to provide in your home.
“Nicole has been a God send. She keeps my up to date and informed during her visits if one of my pets isn’t doing well. Even offered to get more food for my cat after the dog ate up all his food. I always check with her first when I have to travel.”
About: Hi!! My name is Lauren and I would love to take care of, walk, feed, or just love on your pets (: I currently have a 5 year old pitty mix and a 13 year old chow mix and they are my pride and joy! Growing up I had a family pug, so I have experience with small and large dogs! I currently am open during the week from 6am - 8 am to take care of whatever your needs might be for you and your pets! I plan to only except jobs that will be in the pets owners home, so I would need to know what is best for your home and your neighborhood. As well as how your pet acts / any needs they may have.
“Emily has taken care of our dog for the past few months, sometimes several nights a week while I’ve been at work. I couldn’t say better things about her and her professionalism. She is the best caregiver you could ask for when it comes to your furry friends. I HIGHLY recommend her and her services.”
“Christina visited our cat everyday for a over a week. She was on time, gave us timely reports and photos, and managed to get our shy kitty to snuggle and purr. She is great and we highly recommend!”
About: I will care for your pet as if they are my own. Your pet will feel at home and you will be worry free when in need. If you have any concerns or questions, feel free to contact me at any time. I guarantee you that your pet will be in great hands if they are in my hands and will feel loved while away from you too. I live at a pet friendly home where my husband and I will give your pet all the love. Any special requests? Just let me know and we will take care of everything. I just want you and your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while away from each other. Again if you have any concerns, questions, or requests please feel free to contact me! I work from home with the hubby so being here for your pet is not a question! We also have a fenced in dog park next door to us and take our own pup there daily! I have my own pet friendly fur baby (dog) and cats that do have a seperate living space for them in case we need to board a pet that is not used to cats. Me and my husband take our dog to the fenced in dog park next to us to get her zoomies out at 12 everyday and sometimes if necessary we’ll go twice a day. We also will go on daily walks up to 5 times a day so your pup will definitely be able to get some energy out!
About: Have owned dogs all my life and had 2 litters of puppies in my lifetime. Love all animals and will show your dogs nothing but love and play with them while you’re gone. It’ll be like you never left. I got laid off from my job a couple months ago and haven’t been able to find work. Started uber driving but would rather be pet watching. Very flexible schedule. I have dogs currently in my house. I would not want to bring another animal into this house if it’s not a necessity. We have carpet and built a fence in the backyard for them.
