“This is the first time we hired a pet sitter and I was a little anxious, but Mari was simply great! We were out for a week and she was sending us tons of pictures and reports of our cat. Our cat loved Mari too. I would definitely recommend her if you're looking for a kind and very responsible pet sitter.”

“She is absolutely the best! She was supposed to drop in for 30 minutes, but she spent several hours and even took my dog to the dog park because she knew I’m overwhelmed with the bar exam and moving🥹🥹🥹 I can’t thank her enough and highly recommend her.”

About: Well to begin with, I have experience walking numerous dogs since the day I could remember. My love for animals in general is immense, contributing to the positive well being of animals is my passion and being able to focus that into a career is something I would have never imagined simply by making sure dogs go when they need too. It all began by simply watching over my own dog, and then it lead me into walking my neighbors dogs and eventually I took it upon myself to walk others in the neighborhood. The first dogs I took care of was a chunky miniature pincher and a 70 lbs pit bull terrier, I am not prejudice towards animals specifically dogs since they are in my field and I have years of experience with different breeds of all sorts. As I am a new LLC on the rise I am in the midst of obtaining my ARC certifications for the health and general knowledge of animals, considering on a professional level I take this accordingly and not enough dog walking companies supply this for their walkers. Being trustworthy, reliable, respectable, caring and cautious are few of the many traits I carry and endorse for my business in which I believe are critical in the dog walking business. Every dog is unique, just like a person I would not want to disrespect their space and have them catch an unapproachable vibe from me. I like to make sure I build comfort and confidence with the dogs I will work with, considering not many may be comfortable with letting someone unfamiliar walk them, my specialty. Walking dogs for me personally is never something I like to do in a haste, I enjoy in executing my job correctly and efficiently. I make sure every walk is special at times they come back home with a better attitude than the dogs left in. My main goal for the dogs are exercise, safety, fun and making sure they are able to do their business enough. I am a full time dog walker and lifetime animal lover so meeting accommodations for him or her is never a problem. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile hopefully I gain the opportunity and trust of being able to walk your furry child! Taking care of pups is my daily life. I have my own pups so it comes to me naturally. To do what needs to be done to make sure our pups are well taken care of! I do this full time! First of all, i make sure the pup is as comfortable as possible make them feel as if the parents are home. I walked them as many times as possible, keep all their needs up to date & give lots of love.

About: Hi! We’re Faith and Nik, lifelong animal lovers who truly believe pets are family. Between the two of us, we’ve had animals our entire lives, including dogs, cats (and even guinea pigs and fish!) and we bring that same care and respect to every pet we care for. Your pet will have plenty of company here. Nik is retired and certified in animal first aid, while Faith works from home, meaning your dog or cat will enjoy continual supervision and affection. They’ll also have a friend in our 11-year-old Lab mix, Nala. She is sweet, gentle, and well-socialized with both cats and dogs, making her the perfect, low-stress companion for visiting pets. We live in a spacious apartment next door to a new park with a nice dog run. Having provided sitting services for friends and family for years, we understand how important routine and comfort are when you’re away. We treat every animal as if they were our own, while following your specific care instructions to the letter and providing regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind. Whether your pet prefers high-energy playtime, cozy cuddles, or just a quiet place to nap, we adapt to their personality to make them feel right at home. We can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member!

“Murray was an excellent cat sitter. He fed and played with my cats every day and even got my most timid cat to come out of hiding. He also took care of some minor things when I asked him like a camera the cats knocked over. I am really glad I hired Murray and Ana to take care of my cats while I was gone - and my cats were glad as well.”

About: I am a reliable person. If I say i’m coming, I show up. I think animals tend to warm up to me quickly because i’m nurturing. I am a writer, so I am flexible with my work from anywhere during the day, except for the days i’m filming and on set. I have a cat myself at home, i have a 2nd bedroom so i can always use the guest room for your animal if they are not comfortable being around a cat.

About: I have always had a genuine love for animals and enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I enjoy spending time playing with pets, giving them plenty of attention, feeding them, going on walks, and making sure they are happy and comfortable while their family is away. I will care for your pet with the same love and attention I give my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available during the week and on weekends, and I’m happy to work with each pet parent’s schedule and their pet’s normal routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and routines. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention and affection while also respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. I’ll treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

“We couldn’t be happier with Ruth! My husband and I went away on a long vacation, and knowing that Duchess and Gordo were in her hands gave us so much peace of mind. From the very beginning, she made us feel completely comfortable and reassured. She was always punctual, and after every visit she sent us the sweetest pictures and detailed updates about how our babies were doing. It honestly made our day to see them happy and relaxed while we were so far away. She spent time playing with them, giving them attention, and keeping them company, and we could tell that she genuinely cared about them. Coming home to two happy, well-cared-for cats meant so much to us. We’re incredibly grateful to Ruth for taking such wonderful care of Duchess and Gordo, and we would absolutely trust her with them again. We highly, highly recommend her! ❤️”

About: Hi! My name is Natty, and caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I have experience taking care of multiple dogs and cats, including my own pets: a sweet beagle named Harley, a golden retriever named Layla, and three rescued cats named Benito, Minnie, and Oreo, all of whom were adopted as strays and became part of our family. Being surrounded by animals every day has taught me how important patience, attention, and love are when caring for pets. I understand that every animal has their own personality and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping pets company, I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treating them like family. I am very responsible, caring, and communicative, and I will always provide updates and photos for peace of mind. I would love the opportunity to care for your furry family members and make them feel happy and loved! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and care to your pets throughout the day. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-ins, boarding, and playtime! I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including my own pets at home. I always make sure animals feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for, while keeping owners updated with photos and communication for peace of mind.

“Leslie was absolutely wonderful! My puppy was under the weather but I needed to go into work. I reached out to Leslie last minute to see if he could stop by and check in on my dog every couple of hours. He responded quickly and had the availability. I was so thankful! He administered my dog's medication prescribed from the vet, cleaned up after her mess, took her for walks each visit, and sent me many photos throughout the visits so I would know she was OK. I would 100% use Leslie's services again and would recommended to anyone!”

About: 🐾 Pet Care Experience Hi! My name is Jesse, I’m 28, and animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. ❤️ I’ve been surrounded by and caring for various animals throughout my 28 years of being alive coupled with 15+ years of hands-on pet care experience through pet sitting, walking, fostering, and caring for fur children of my own. My experience comes from pet sitting and walking for friends and family, previous fostering, and having fur children of my own. I truly believe pets aren’t just pets — they are our babies and part of our family. 🐾💜 I understand that every animal is different, with their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet is playful and energetic, shy and needs extra patience, has additional needs, or simply wants to relax and be spoiled — that’s exactly what they will get! I make it a priority to take the time to ensure every pet feels safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for, while also following their individual routines and needs as closely as possible. Making your pet a priority is my priority. 💜 My goal is for every furry guest to feel right at home and go home just as happy as when they arrived. After all, their happiness is my happiness! 😊 I look forward to welcoming your pet as a new addition to my large fur family! While they’re in my care, they’re not just a guest — they’re family to me, too. 🐾💜 🦟 Flea & Tick Prevention Policy For the health, safety, and comfort of every pet in my care, I require all dogs staying for boarding or daycare to be actively receiving flea and tick prevention. Prior to confirming a new booking, I may request verification of current prevention, such as a recent veterinary record, medication receipt, or photo of the current preventative product. This policy helps maintain a clean, safe, and comfortable environment for every animal staying in my home. Since pets share the same environment, preventing the spread of fleas and ticks is an important part of keeping everyone healthy and comfortable. My number one priority is making sure every animal in my care feels safe, loved, comfortable, and genuinely well cared for throughout their stay. ❤️ Thank you for understanding and helping me maintain a safe and healthy environment for all of my furry guests! 🐾💜 Pet care is my full-time commitment and my full time job, so I’m able to offer flexibility when it comes to your schedule and your pet’s individual needs. 🩷 It’s truly an honor and privilege to spend my time caring for animals. Taking care of your fur babies is not just my job — it’s genuinely what I love to do and how I choose to spend my time. I always do my best to make time for you and your precious babies, whether they need walks, playtime, companionship, or simply someone to be there for them. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care while making your pet feel comfortable, happy, and right at home. 🐾💗 When caring for your pets, I believe being attentive, thorough, and dependable is incredibly important. I carefully follow your instructions, pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and body language, and make their safety, comfort, and individual needs my top priority. For pets staying in my home, I have plenty of space, toys, and extra rooms where your fur baby can have their own quiet space if they want it. At the same time, my home is their home while they’re here — they’re welcome to relax wherever they’re comfortable and cozy up wherever they please. 🐾💜 I also love taking dogs out for walks, park trips, and even little doggy picnics! During warmer weather, I’m especially mindful of the heat and adjust accordingly, choosing shorter, more frequent walks and making sure your pup stays comfortable and safe. For my feline guests, I’m perfectly happy with a respectful “stare at each other from a distance” relationship 😂 — unless they decide they want cuddles! Then my lap, furniture, or any high-up ledge becomes their personal throne. 🐈💜 Most importantly, I want every pet to be treated like they’re my own and for their stay to feel more like a fun, relaxing vacation than time away from home. I’m always happy to provide regular photos, videos, updates, and even FaceTime so you can stay connected with your fur baby while they’re with me. 🩵 I’m also experienced with administering medication to both cats and dogs when needed, and I have experience understanding animal body language, including through fostering animals who needed extra care and support while recovering or adjusting to a new environment. Experienced with: - 🐾 Special-needs cats & dogs - 🐾 Puppies & kittens - 🐾 Senior animals - 🐈 Cat-friendly pets - 🐾 Rescue animals & animals in training - 🐕 Big dogs - 💜 Pit bulls - 🐾 Caring for multiple dogs and/or cats at once - 💊 Medication administration I’m excited to provide your fur baby with a safe, loving, fun, and comfortable getaway while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re being treated like family. 🩵 Please feel free to ask me any questions before booking — your pet’s needs, safety, and comfort will always be my priority. 🦟 Flea & Tick Prevention Policy For the health, safety, and comfort of every pet in my care, I require all dogs staying for boarding or daycare to be actively receiving flea and tick prevention. Prior to confirming a new booking, I may request some form of verification of current prevention, such as a recent veterinary record, medication receipt, or photo of the current preventative product. This policy is in place as a preventative measure to help maintain a clean, safe, and comfortable environment for every animal staying in my home. Because pets are sharing the same environment, preventing the spread of fleas and ticks is an important part of keeping everyone healthy and comfortable during their stay. My number one priority is making sure every animal in my care feels safe, loved, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their stay — and ultimately goes home just as happy, if not happier, than when they arrived. ❤️ Thank you so much for understanding and helping me maintain a safe and healthy environment for all of my furry guests! 🐾💜

About: Hi, we are Taylor and Ashleigh. We are newer to Rover but have been caring for dogs for over 20 years and have had dogs of our own since we were kids. We've raised dogs from playful puppies to their senior years, so we're completely comfortable caring for both energetic youngsters and sweet senior dogs alike. We are also fully comfortable providing any care your dog may need, including administering oral medications or injections, if required. We have cared for dogs with seizure disorders, cancer, aggression, anxiety, sweet babies that require extra attention, dogs not potty trained, dogs in heat, small dogs to very large dogs, and many more. For us, taking care of dogs and cats is our passion rooted in unconditional love. We firmly believe that our fur babies are not just pets; they are our family, and we treat every single fur baby with the exact same devotion, warmth, and pampering we would give our own. Whether your pet needs extra cuddles, a structured schedule, or gentle handling, you can trust they'll be in caring, experienced hands. You can travel with absolute peace of mind, knowing your baby is receiving the absolute best care and being loved like family. We both currently work from home so we have plenty of time to take long walks, go to the dog park, play in the backyard, or just cuddle on the couch. We are able to accommodate any specific needs or request you may have to better care for your fur baby. We are available for overnight boarding, doggy day care, walks and drop-in visits. We can’t wait to meet and care for your fur baby! We primarily work from home, so we are typically gone for no more than a couple hours a day. We have plenty of time for special attention, walks, and play time. Our dogs have always been family, so we will treat yours exactly the same way. We have a small fenced in backyard, but primarily try to take them out for at least a brief walk/bathroom break every couple of hours. We can do as many potty breaks as needed. Dogs are welcome on all furniture and are welcome to sleep in the bed at night. If your pet likes to get into things please just let us know and we will make sure there is nothing they can get into. We also have gates we can use if needed. We want you pet to have a safe and fun visit while in our care. We will do whatever we need to to make sure your pet has the best experience.

Sophia was wonderful with Leo! Wonderful communicator and she sent me so many pictures. He looked like he was having the absolute best time with her. The little mouse she brought him was so thoughtful—he loved it, and they played fetch together. I felt so happy seeing how much fun he was having and so grateful he was getting so much love. I’d love to have Sophia care for him again!

Would highly recommend Laura to look after your pets. During her time with our cat, she sent great photo updates and we felt confident in our cat’s care. Unfortunately, halfway through the booking, she experienced a major injury and had to cancel the rest, but was extremely professional and helpful in coordinating to pass on the keys to a new sitter at the last minute. I would recommend her for all your pet sitting needs!

Alec and Katarina were life savers when i needed to leave town last minute. They were SO responsive and even went above and beyond to squeeze in a visit when they had other commitments that evening and initially were not able to watch Mochi 1 of the nights. They sent tons of pictures and everything went perfectly. Came home to one happy cat 😺!!!
