About: I grew up around all kinds of pets & began pet sitting in high school. I’ve cared for puppies and kittens all the way to senior care. Small dogs and big ones (Great Danes are the largest). I’ve gone on countless walks, used gentles leaders, played with all types of toys, administered various medications, and given lots of baths. I have a 2-year-old short-haired calico, and a 9-year-old Boston Terrier/Pug mix. I am a student who works as a barista part time. I do school online and my schedule is extremely flexible which makes me the perfect pet sitter. I am happy to do whatever is necessary to fit into your pets routine. I provide plenty of photos and updates. I am lucky to have my sister as a roommate so if it is necessary for me to stay with a pet overnight I am able to do so.
About: I have experience with pets of all ages and personalities, including a special love for senior animals. I’m very comfortable caring for pets with special needs and I understand the extra patience, gentleness, and attention they need—whether that means slower routines, medication support, or just a calm, comforting presence. I’m also experienced with more independent or “spicy” cats and dogs through my time volunteering at a local animal shelter, and know how to read their boundaries, build trust at their pace, and make them feel safe without forcing interaction. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work part-time and intentionally build my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. This allows me to be flexible and give each pet the time and attention they deserve. I also like to set clear expectations with owners ahead of each visit so I can make sure I’m meeting their preferences and providing consistent, reliable care. I am happy to accommodate all requests according to individual pet's needs after a conversation with the pet owner! Any questions or requests, feel free to reach out :)
About: I started doing rover because of my own negative experiences with past pet care providers. I wanted to be the right pet sitter for pet owners so they can have peace of mind when they are away. I’ve had pets my entire life, and have such a deep love for animals of all kinds! I am currently working from home with a-lot of downtime during the day and am able to step out if need be at any point! my schedule is incredibly flexible I treat everyone’s pets as if they are my own! I have 2 cats whom I view as my children and care for them with an immense amount of love

About: I grew up with and took care of a sweet and energetic yorkipoo named Milo. He passed away a few of years ago at 15 with dementia and nerve issues. I also lived with an elderly, blind maltese-bichon mix, Coco for three years and helped take care of her as well. I am comfortable and experienced with older dogs that require more medical attention but am more than happy to help with younger pups as well! I also have some experience cat-sitting for friends. I am currently on summer break, so my schedule is pretty flexible! I am especially available during weekdays at any time. However, I am available many weekends as well. I like to give pets ample attention and whatever each individual pet needs. I know each pet is different and I will adapt to your pet’s personality whether that’s high energy or more calm.
“My pup is still getting used to unfamiliar people walking him outside. Rachel’s shown a lot of patience as they get to know each other more and he’s warming up little by little. I’m so glad I found her to help out.”

About: I have many experience taking care of pets. I want pets to have a great experience. Therefore, I take the experience of pets very seriously. For Summer, I have a lot of availability. I cannot wait to take care of your dog or cat! I look forward to providing the best care possible for your loved one. I am very understanding and know how important pets are. Therefore, I would like to know how I can provide the best care for your pet.
“Karollyne was so great with my two fur babies. She is reliable and with my busy schedule and last minute changes her afternoon schedule was always flexible with mine. She took such great care of my babies and anyone looking for a sitter will be lucky to have her.”

“First time meet and greet. Moe was skiddish, as expected but warmed up to Daniel pretty quickly and let him take for a nice walk. Was on time, respectful, and courteous.”

“Nima did a fantastic job walking our Oli and I highly recommend her. She is punctual, professional, and extremely loving to all of our pets! Nima was also flexible with scheduling and willing to accommodate our (Oli’s) needs when we needed to modify the booking. She was also extremely patient when our Oli was being stubborn on walks or potty breaks, which we greatly appreciated, especially the photos of their walks when he was serving serious diva face! 😂 We will definitely be utilizing her services again in the future and cannot recommend her enough!”

About: Since the age of 15, I’ve been caring for my neighbors’ dogs, building a lifelong passion for animals. Over the years, I’ve worked in several professional pet care facilities, gaining invaluable experience. However, I realized I wanted to provide the same level of personalized care I’d expect for my own pets. That’s why I decided to set out on my own, offering compassionate, tailored care for every furry friend I meet. I currently have an open schedule and can accommodate most requests. I only will take one owners pets at a time in my home so please keep this in mind if you need boarding services. I have a large fenced yard with 3 sides blocked by buildings giving dogs a safe secure place to exercise and relax. I also live near Branchbrook park for longer walks. When taking care of pets in your home my goal is be as non intrusive and respectful as possible. I'm happy to follow any requested procedures to ensure your full comfort.
About: Current personal experience with exotic pets who needs extra care and special diet. Experience with dogs since the age of 8 including walking, feed, and bathe. I am a full time pet care provider, so my schedule is very flexible. I welcome pets for a sleep over and love taking pets to the park for fresh air. I live in a spacious apartment, and allow pets to roam freely and lay on furnitures. I welcome any pets with special diets or routines.
About: I have always had dogs and have taken care of friends pets when they travel. I was able to foster a cat for several months as well. I absolutely love animals. I have two dogs whom I walk daily and spend time with regularly. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine between morning, afternoon and nightly potty breaks to our weekend dog park, park or hiking adventures. I treat my pets like my tribe members. I ensure that they feel safe around me and anyone who enters our space. I also ensure to listen when they communicate and communicate in a way they can understand as well.
About: Hi, I’m Aria✨ I’m a JC local who enjoys long walks at the park (with your dog). My love for animals started when I volunteered to dog-walk and help find dogs a home at an SPCA in Charleston, SC for 3 yrs. Since then, I’ve been taking care of my family, friends, and neighbors dogs :) I’ll only confirm a dog-walk and dog sitting shift if I’m working from home and can guarantee I can be present with your fur baby •Affection (dogs love company that make them feel comfortable and loved). I’m always sure to make them feel seen and cared for. It can be tough on them being away from their caregiver. So affection goes a long way. •Making sure they’re fed & hydrated (always attending them according to their usual/specific routine).

I highly recommend Jestine to watch your pups!! She has been incredible over the last year I have been booking her for walks. She is such a sweet person, and as an anxious dog mom, she never gives me a reason to worry! Definitely book with Jestine, she’s the best!

The entire interaction with Omar was smooth and rooted in care and communication. My dog immediately liked him and Omar went the extra mile to assure not only was Ty happy but how he could be helpful. Knowing my dog was in good hands is a weight lifted off of my shoulders. I’m looking forward to booking with him again and would urge anyone considering to not hesitate.
