“Super communicative and truly takes the time to ensure the little details to make sure your baby has the best experience! Would highly recommend and will definitely be using her again in the future!”

About: I worked as a kennel tech for a dog trainer for 2 years and have been volunteering with a dog rescue that saves abused and neglected dogs for the past 6 years. These experiences, as well as raising my own dogs, have given me the knowledge to work with most dogs, but my passion is working with fearful, anxious, and reactive dogs. Working on their time to gain their trust is my specialty and passion. I have experience working through basic obedience, counter conditioning, confidence building, muzzle training, gear shyness, and cooperative care. I also have experience working with dogs that require more intensive care due to feeding routines (such as making homemade food or strict feeding schedules with medications) and grooming maintenance (frequent or routine baths due to coat type or skin conditions). Know that under my care, your pup will be with someone who understands them as an individual and can meet them where they are at. I'm currently attending college online, so I'm almost always available during the week, except when I'm taking care of my own dogs. On weekends, I do market events, so I might not have as much availability throughout the day. Your dog's comfort as well as yours are my top priorities, so I do require a meet and greet before any service I provide. This allows me to meet your pet and see their behavior before a service, and lets you see how your pet feels around me. I provide daily updates with pictures, with the ability to provide more frequent updates at your request. I also strictly follow any instructions and routines laid out for me regarding a pet's care.
“Demetria was fantastic, she put nothing but time and care into my boys while I was away for a weekend. She works fantastic, is very nice, punctual, and very flexible. Overall fantastic experience and I won’t want anyone else to walk my dogs in the future”

“Pamela was great! I had to go out of town within a couple days and she was able to take care of my dog and was super flexible with everything! Couldn’t have asked for a better care taker!”

“She has been nothing but amazing with my dog made me feel very comfortable of leaving my dog with a new person & 1st time using the app. Definitely recommend for someone to handle your bigger dogs.”

“Emoni is amazing! She truly understands dogs. Ali was immediately at ease with her. She is always excited to see Emoni and WALK with her. I am so grateful to have found Emoni and have her partner with me in Ali’s care!”

About: I'm new to Rover but NOT new to watching/caring for animals! I've taken care of animals for a long time. I grew up on a farm, and did chores for the chickens, sheep, horses, and of course, dogs! I now pet sit for friends and colleagues' cats and dogs. My husband and I don't have my own animals right now, so we enjoy getting to take care of other people's fur babies. I currently work part time, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I like to know your expectations, and make sure you and your pet get exactly what you need! I have watched dogs in my apartment on multiple occasions. The apartment complex is dog friendly, with doggie bags on the sidewalk and a nice little dog park as well!

About: Experienced pet sitter with 25+ years as Director of a cat rescue and 3+ years as a professional cat groomer. (I can do emergencygrooming on dogs too - but that is not my area of expertise!) I specialize in flat-faced and long-haired breeds and have extensive knowledge of feline care, behavior, and grooming. I also have 20+ years of experience caring for dogs. Skilled in administering medications and providing subcutaneous (sub-q) fluids, I’m comfortable with senior and special-needs pets. I offer calm, attentive, low-stress care so your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well-loved while you’re away. I work part-time 1–2 days per week, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care throughout the week. On the days I work, I am still available for evening visits. On my off days, I have open availability and can accommodate morning, midday, and evening care. I prioritize consistency and reliability, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine to ensure they receive timely feeding, medication, exercise, and attention. For safety and stress-reduction for all animals in my care, I provide pet sitting exclusively in the client’s home and do not offer boarding in my own home due to having foster cats. In the client’s home, I focus on maintaining each pet’s normal routine to minimize stress, especially for cats. With over 25 years of rescue experience and a background in feline grooming and veterinary support skills, I prioritize calm, gentle handling, cleanliness, and strict attention to care instructions. I am experienced with administering medications, including subcutaneous fluids, and providing specialized care for senior, shy, and special-needs pets. I treat every home with respect and care, and every pet as if they were my own.

“Cassi is amazing ! I am pretty picky when it comes to walking my puppy a certain way and she didn't hesitate to take the time to learn the different cues and commands I use so that she can help reinforce his training while on walks with her. She kept me updated throughout the visit and I was at ease knowing my baby was in good hands while I was away.”

About: Hi! I’ve owned corgis for 20 years and absolutely love all small breeds. Bigger pups and kitties are awesome too. I’m good with administering oral/topical medications, special dietary needs etc. Florida clients only please! I am in sunny Florida now and although I work outside the home I am a devoted corgi mom with all weekends free so I have plenty of time for home visits and dog walkies. I provide a semi-flexible schedule and premiere, professional service. If I’m boarding your fur baby, I have a large fenced yard and corgi playmates! If you would prefer home visits, I have reliable transportation and a semi- flexible schedule to meet your needs.
“Alice loves John. When she hears his voice she literally runs to the door. John greets her with a big body rub. He also talks to her. You can tell that he really enjoys doing this job.”
