About: I have experience caring for a variety of pets including dogs, cats, and birds. While it has been quite a few years, I was a veterinary technician in high school and college. I love all animals and feel comfortable around dogs of all sizes. I am a second grade teacher looking to share my love of animals while earning extra income during the summer. I am a second-grade teacher with two high school children. I can be available most days during the summer due to my career. I am also available most afternoons/evenings during the school year. I will ensure any specific instructions are followed with care and accuracy and make your pet feel comfortable and loved. I can support the needs of both active and relaxed dogs, and love to provide a cozy lap and/or be a throwing companion for your furry family member.
About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including puppies and seniors. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, as this is my full-time job. I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, feedings, playtime, and bathroom breaks, ensuring pets aren’t left alone for long. While I’m not offering overnight house sitting at the moment, I’m happy to provide house sittings during the day or evening. If I have a dog walk or drop-in, I may step out briefly and return. I will always keep my clients informed of my availability so they know they can rely on me. I love shaping my day around the pets I care for—whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening routines—so I can keep their comfort and consistency at the heart of everything I do. I take safety and trust very seriously and always care for pets as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I closely follow all instructions provided, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medications, and house rules. I keep the environment clean, calm, and familiar to reduce stress for the pet.
About: Hi I’m Shannon, have a cat right now and used to have an 105lb Golden Retriever so i’m very experienced with big and small animals! I’m home from college and i’m on break so i have a lot of free time to walk dogs at any time of any day. I care for my cat and I used to have a big Golden Retriever who I would go play with and take on many walks.

About: I have been around dogs my entire life and understand that every dog has their own unique personality, needs, and routine. As a current dog owner to my energetic 1½-year-old dog, I have hands-on experience with daily walks, exercise, training reinforcement, feeding schedules, and providing lots of love and attention. Growing up with dogs taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and creating a safe, comfortable environment where pets can thrive. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. In addition to my experience with dogs, I have spent years caring for animals through my equestrian background, which has helped me develop strong animal-handling skills, attention to detail, and a calm, responsible approach to animal care. I have spent the last 5 years riding and training horses professionally am really passionate about all things animals ! Whether your dog needs a walk, drop-in visit, or companionship while you’re away, I’ll make sure they receive attentive care, plenty of affection, and regular updates so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. 🐾 I work as a professional rider and spend much of my day caring for and working with horses, which has given me extensive experience handling animals and maintaining consistent care routines. My schedule can vary depending on training and horse show commitments, but I do my best to keep my Rover calendar up to date and am often available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I always make safety and comfort my top priority when caring for pets. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and routine so they feel relaxed and secure while I’m with them. I’ve grown up around animals and currently work around horses, so I’m very used to reading animal behavior and staying calm and responsible in different situations. I bring that same mindset to every dog I care for.
About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs since I was 14. I was a free-lance dog walker for my neighborhood so I’ve had plenty of experience with many kinds of dogs! I go to school part-time so I’ll be able to take care of your pups as long as I’m not in school. I enjoy taking dogs on walks as I enjoy being active. I have plenty of toys to keep your pups busy as well as my own dog, Tucker, to keep them company! I will play with them and give them as much attention and love as I can.
About: Hi paw friends 🐾 I am somewhat new to Rover but I have grown up with dogs my entire life. I have always helped my family and friends care for their animals and I always enjoyed doing it. My husband and I got married four years ago and our little girl is three. It's amazing to see her interact with the dogs because she gets more comfortable and happier each time. We will eventually get a dog when the time is right, but I love Rover because it’s give me the opportunity to still bond with pups. I truly love being around animals. Our families sometimes come to stay with us with their dogs and I get a crazy burst of happiness every time. Life is just better with a dog around and I would love to care and help with your pups! :) I know it can be tough trusting your animals in others hands but rest assured that your pet will be in great hands with me & I will send plenty of updates and pictures 📸🐾 I currently work part time (every weekend). So I am free to take care of your pups during the week and still on weekends when I’m home. I still offer some services on the weekends. I will care for the pet how the owner(s) want me to care for them. They will always bed fed, hydrated, clean, warm, and the happiest they can be in my home. My home isn't that big so someone is always around. I am not an out-going person, I do have a good amount of friends but they all come to my house since I am the mama of the group :)

About: Hello! I have 30 years of experience caring for pets. I own an 80lb lover-girl named Lobster and a 10lb rascal-cat named Trinity (from The Matrix!)

About: I have been a pet parent for most of my life, and currently share my home with a senior dog and two cats. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, and I approach each pet with patience, gentleness, and care.

Your pets will be treated with the same thoughtfulness and respect I give my own. I have a flexible work-from-home schedule, which allows me to be present, attentive, and fully engaged with your pup’s needs and routine.

I treat your home with the same respect and care as I do my own, ensuring a clean, secure, and calm environment at all times. My goal is to build trust not only with your pet, but with you as well, so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have been working in the medical field for over 15 years so I am very experienced in caring for people and providing excellent customer service. I am excited about walking your pet or stopping by to see how they are doing because I am eager to spend more time with animals. I know what it means to consider pets family. I am honored to provide these services to you and your pet! I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with your pup. I will not be away from the house for more than 4 hours at a time, typically. I have a large backyard and always supervise dogs when they are out playing. Since I do not have a fence I would keep your dog on a leash and take them for walks for exercise or to a dog park if appropriate.

Unionville dog parents share their Rover experiences
Nataliia has been a joy to have walking my dog 4 times per week for the past three months. She is 100% reliable and easy to communicate with. She didn’t just walk my dog but takes her to parks and trails which is much more enriching. I was able to have a stress free few months knowing that my girl was in good hands while I was at work.

Carla is very kind and patient with our dog, who happens to be anxious and apprehensive with walks. In spite of my dog’s quirks, she absolutely loved her walks with Carla. Carla also provides thorough walk reports and tons of photos, which are greatly appreciated. Your dog is in great hands with Carla!

Paige was an absolute godsend. She handled our sometimes challenging pup with expertise and care, leaving us without worry. At the same time, she played and cared for our easy going dog making sure he was given attention and looked after. She is very careful and competent-- and takes care of your pups so you can be away without any concerns.
