I found Rebecca last minute on Rover and truly couldn’t have had a better experience. She was so kind and communicative even before we met, and was willing to care for Luna with little notice. From the moment I dropped her off, she kept me updated throughout the day with the cutest pictures, which meant so much. I was pretty anxious leaving Luna with someone new, but Rebecca completely put my mind at ease. I knew Luna was in excellent hands the entire time. Highly recommend 🤍

About: I’ve had a variety of pets and pet sitting experiences. I’ve worked at a family friends boarding facility for a few summers. I’ve pet sat for friends and family. I have experience with large dogs, small dogs, feral and domestic cats, and all types of exotics. I’ve worked with seniors, pets with disabilities, and pets that have medical needs. I work part time at a country club, but my schedule is super flexible especially during the winter. I try to keep my working hours between 8am-9pm, but I’m willing to be flexible. Just let me know if you have a schedule that you’d like to keep your pets on and just tell me what to do and I will do and try my best to uphold their routine. Just let me know If your pets have any dietary restriction, allergies, disabilities, or just little quirks that’s you’d like me to be aware of while I walk or sit your pets.

Robert was amazing watching my dog for the day. He took her on a long walk and she instantly was comfortable with him. He was also flexible when I was a little later to pick her up than expected - thank you Robert!

Joy was fantastic! She has a great demeanor and was very at ease when receiving our dog, which in turn made us feel comfortable leaving him there. She provided updates throughout his stay and was responsive to all our messages. He was returned to us well taken care of and honestly quite relaxed for his character, so we know he got plenty of play time in. We look forward to working with Joy in the future and highly recommend her!

About: What sets me apart is my combination of hands-on dog experience and active lifestyle. I've cared for a wide variety of breeds, from Golden Retrievers to Goldendoodles, and I understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, and needs. Originally from Southern California, I spent years taking my own dogs on beach adventures and outdoor activities, so I'm comfortable handling active dogs who need plenty of exercise and engagement. As a former college athlete, I have the stamina and enthusiasm to keep up with even the most energetic pups, whether that means long walks, runs, playtime, or outdoor adventures. Above all, I treat every dog as if they were my own—providing attentive, reliable care so both pets and owners feel comfortable and confident. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make sure every dog gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. As someone who enjoys staying active, I love incorporating walks, playtime, and outdoor activities into my day. Whether your dog prefers a relaxing stroll or needs plenty of exercise to burn off energy, I'm happy to tailor my care to their individual needs. I also make it a priority to provide regular updates so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I live in a dog-friendly apartment building and can welcome dogs into my home when needed, providing a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they can relax and feel at ease. For most services, I provide care for pets in their own home and neighborhood. I typically pick dogs up from their owner's residence and walk or care for them in familiar surroundings, which helps reduce stress and keeps them on their normal routine. During walks and visits, I stay attentive to each dog's behavior, energy level, and individual needs to ensure they are safe and happy.

About: I understand dogs really well. When they want to play, when they need to go out, and when they just want love. I work from home, and my partner is also home, so your pup will always have company and attention. We take daily walks to the park and would love to bring your dog along. My apartment is clean, quiet, and safe with no kids or other pets. I always use a leash on walks and have experience giving medications. Your dog will be cared for like family 😌 My schedule is pretty much flexible I am a remote worker. My partner and I love dogs. So your dog will get more attention 🙂🙂 Our apartment is clean and have bigger space for the dog to play and hang with us. Our patio is fenced and our building is pet friendly.

About: My family adopted a dog (Maltese/Shitzu mix) ~6 years ago and I have been to vet appointments, given oral/ear medicine, bathed, walked, trained, fed, groomed (basic), and given him endless amounts of love! I've also learned a lot about bigger dogs from my partner and his family who have 2 Dobermans that I have dogsat multiple times. I have learned lots about the different dynamics of small vs large dogs and find that it's been really valuable in all my canine interactions since. Animals are my soft spot and I want to care for and meet as many as possible! I'm eager to learn more about different breeds and their needs as well! I will be prioritizing safety and communication while doing my best to be as attentive as I can to my surroundings and each pet's body language. Over the summer, I will be free anytime, any day (10am-8pm). I have no job plans other than dog walking/sitting so it will be my main priority. During the school year, I will be available later in the day for scheduling (4pm-8pm) but will be taking it just as seriously. I live directly next to the lake and like to spend my time there reading/walking/flying my kite and it's the perfect place for dog walking/play. I have no pets in my apartment (3rd floor) and am mostly interested in dog walking, doggy day-care, and drop-ins. I am open to boarding but it would have to be depending on dog size/length of stay/etc. Safety is always priority #1 alongside reliable communication so that I can ask questions or further clarify my role/ tasks for that session. I can't wait to get to know all of the dogs I will end up caring for and am eager to begin my Rover journey!

I highly recommend Nicholas. He was very communicative, flexible, and always responsive. He sent me photos whenever I asked, and most importantly, he gave me peace of mind knowing Shusha was in good hands. Shosha came back happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I would absolutely leave Shusha with him again in the future.

This was the second time that Nancy watched Bentley for us, and the first time we ever repeated a sitter on Rover. We usually feel guilty about leaving him knowing that he’s likely to be miserable, but not with Nancy! He really enjoys staying with her. It’s such a relief not to worry about Bentley and actually get to enjoy a nice day out.
