About: I’ve had English bulldogs for 10 years. I haven’t met a dog I didn’t love. I can administer most meds with instructions. I’ll care for your dog as if it were my own and she’s spoiled! I work full-time but mostly remote, so I’m home a lot. I can ensure your dog’s needs are met on a daily basis, they’re the best companions. I have a fenced yard and a small area with turf for potty breaks. I live near a dog park and can take them there, weather permitting. I consider dogs a part of the household so they’re allowed everywhere but I’ll also follow your lead if you have specific instructions.

About: My name is Katie and I am a doctoral student studying Industrial and Organizational Psychology. I am hoping to start up a non-profit senior dog rescue sanctuary in the near future. I have loved dogs since I was a baby. I grew up with all kind of dogs from Irish Setter to Gordon Settler to Lab to Cocker Spaniels. Now I’m raising 5 years old border collie and 3 years old black lab. I am usually free in late afternoons, evenings and on the weekends. I do also work from home and can adjust my schedule a little bit if you need me during the day. When I’m not in school or working, I enjoys reading, walking and geeking out at the museums. Please feel free to reach out anytime if you have questions. I look forward to hear from you! During the weekdays, I usually take dogs out for potty every two to three hours and I would take them out for a walk in morning, during lunch break, and in evening. I usually give two meals a day (morning and evening) and set a time aside to play with them. I live in a house and have two friendly dogs that can play with your puppy. I also have a crate in case your dog needs to be crated. My home also has a huge backyard for the dogs to play in. For safety reasons, I prefer to supervise the dogs while they are in the backyard.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Nelson
“Lauren and Millie are absolutely the best! Knows how to care for our pup especially during stressful events (ie thunderstorms). We can't thank her enough for the extra love and attention she gives to our girl. 🥰”
“Leslie was great with our 7 month old lab. She provided post-surgery care and made sure Sadie didn’t harm her stitches. She took her out for plenty of walks, shared lots of pictures, and was very thorough. Sadie was exhausted every night from playing and walking. I would highly recommend Leslie and will certainly use her services again in the future.”
“Another great day with Lauren! Lauren is quick to respond to our last minute request. We appreciate the pics she sends and Milo loves spending time with her and her little girl. Thanks, Lauren.”
About: I have loved and cared for dogs my entire life, and they truly hold a special place in my heart. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with their beloved pups for years because they know every dog who stays with us is treated like part of our family. I took a break from pet sitting for a while, but I'm happy to share that I'm now open again and excited to welcome new furry friends into our home! My husband and I both work from home, so your pup will enjoy plenty of love, attention, companionship, and playtime throughout the day—they'll never be left alone. While I'm new to Rover, I'm certainly not new to providing safe, dependable, and loving care for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Our home features a fully fenced yard and a secure dog run where your pup can safely explore, play, and burn off energy. We have plenty of activities to keep tails wagging, and for dogs who enjoy socializing, there are friendly playmates to spend time with as well. I know how important it is to feel connected while you're away, so I'm happy to send photos and updates, giving you peace of mind and letting you see how much fun your pup is having. We also have one gentle, mellow cat who gets along wonderfully with dogs, but if your furry family member would be more comfortable without feline company, she can easily stay in her own area. My goal is simple: to provide a safe, loving, and happy home away from home where your dog feels comfortable, cared for, and truly loved. I can't wait to meet you and your four-legged family member! I am home all day with your fur baby. So I am available to care and be with our baby all day. They will be loved and spoiled! Your baby will get to play all day, have breaks, eat on your schedule. Please provide their food and any snacks you wish them to have.
About: I’ve taken care of pets when needed since I was in high school. I have done dog sitting, walking, and playing! I have two dogs of my own so I know how much love goes into our little ones. I am free weekends and have an open schedule in the evenings. Let me know how often you need care and we can work something out. I like to know your pets routine so we can stick to it and have time to play and get exercise. We can communicate what’s best to make you and your pet most comfortable.
“Felt very safe leaving Zarina with her. She was very communicative and patient with me. As an out of towner my guesses of how long everything would take was a bit off. lol traffic! I will use her again!”
“Christie and Daniel treated our anxious Milo so well! Through out the day I received pictures and updates for our little guy. I would highly recommend their care to any one of our doggy loving friends! :)”
About: I have always been a pet owner, volunteered at no-kill shelters for many years, and have worked with many sick AND healthy dogs over my years as a veterinary assistant! I am a hard-worker in and out of school and will ensure that you feel that your pets are in the best hands! I am no stranger to animal care and I will use my three years of experience to ensure that you receive the best care possible! I am currently a Veterinary Science major studying at the U of A! I try to be as up front about my class schedules as I can as being a student is a huge part of who I am! I want to have the most experience possible with a variety of companion animals as I work towards my goal of becoming a veterinarian. Before coming to the UA, I had a full time job at an amazing clinic where I learned so much more in depth animal care! I am all about pet safety and I am a very hypervigilant pet sitter/walker as I only want what is best for my clients! I am able to watch pups outside if predators are a concern or obstacles like a swimming pool. Happy clients and pets are of utmost importance and I provide daily pictures/videos of pets to ensure that owners feel at ease! I also require meet and greets before bookings because I love to get to know you and your pet a little more and ensure that we are a good fit!
“Very positive experience for us and the pups. Great environment for both physical and mental stimulation for the pups. Lara clearly a knowledgeable and caring dog and animal lover. Lara kept us in the loop with pictures and commentary throughout the day. You can’t go wrong with Lara and family watching over your pups.”
“I initially felt very guilty for leaving Blue with Liz . Felt like I was a bad mom until Blue woke me up every morning with excitement and running to the garage. He LOVES being there and I know Liz and her family loves him too. I cannot recommend Liz enough! But maybe I shouldn't coz she might be over booked! Lol!”
About: I currently work from home and am available for all of your dogs needs from companionship, stimulation and bathroom breaks. I pride myself on being available to the dogs and a present pet parent. I work from home and your pet will be included in my day to day activities as if it were my own. I am very attentive caring and sensitive to the needs of my pets which in turn will make me sensitive to the needs of your pet. The pets in my home are cared for as family, they get free reign of the house, they have full access to my back yard and they are not left alone in the back yard.
About: With 16 years of hands-on experience in pet care and training, I’ve honed a deep understanding of animal behavior, needs, and communication. Over the years, I’ve worked with a wide variety of pets—from playful puppies and curious kittens to senior pets requiring extra attention. My approach combines patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, ensuring that pets feel safe, loved, and well-behaved. Whether it’s daily care, specialized training, or addressing behavioral challenges, I bring both skill and heart to every pet I care for. I'm currently working part time so I have loads of extra time to care for, train, and love on all of your furry family members. I have an enclosed backyard with one well-trained medium sized dog. He gets along well with most dogs, but can easily be separated if needed.
“Yaneli did a marvelous job keeping our Athena active & happy. Athena enjoyed playing with Yaneli’s dog & being out for an extensive hike. Yaneli really went above & beyond in making sure Athena was exercised & entertained!!!!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs of all kinds since I was 9 years old. My specialty is fragile seniors with special needs, meds, diets and gentle care. My three girls are not dogs but sweet babies who give us unconditional love and are treasured. We will welcome yours the same way and keep them safe <3 I work out of my home office so this gives me the ability to supervise your pet. They can join mine in my office, we have plenty of comfy spots. I give frequent breaks, time for treats, cuddles and can take them on short walks to our little park (if desired) I also have a pet stroller. I have a fenced in yard with critter fencing and a gate guard. A large turf area perfect for zoomies! My two friendly little malti-pos and a Chinese Crested will be their play pals. They are low key and gentle.
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I truly treat every animal as if they were my own and believe they deserve kindness, respect, and individualized care. I have experience caring for senior dogs through every stage of life. My dog, Zeus, was with me from the time he was a puppy until he was 12 years old. During his senior years and final days, I cared for his changing needs by making sure he stayed comfortable, followed his routine, and received the extra patience and attention he needed. That experience taught me how important it is to recognize when a pet needs a little extra care and compassion. I’m also able to adapt quickly to different animals, personalities, and routines. I’ve cared for a variety of pets and understand that every animal has unique behaviors and needs. Whether your pet has a detailed schedule, dietary requirements, medications, or specific instructions, I’m confident in following them closely to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I’ll always care for them as if they were part of my own family. Your baby is my top priority, so I have a completely open and flexible schedule. I recently left my previous job, which allows me to dedicate my full attention to caring for your pet. Whether you need weekday, weekend, morning, evening, or last-minute care, I’m happy to work around your schedule whenever possible. My goal is to provide your pet with the love, attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve while you’re away. Since my schedule is so flexible, I can focus on maintaining your pet’s routine and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for from the moment you leave until you return. Whether I am caring for your pet in your home or spending time with them during visits and walks, I will make sure they are closely supervised, safe, and receiving plenty of attention. I understand how important it is to follow each pet’s normal routine, so I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, potty breaks, and any other specific needs. I also take the time to learn each pet’s personality and comfort level so they can feel as relaxed and secure as possible while you’re away. I respect both your pet and your home, and I will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. My goal is to create a calm, loving, and trustworthy environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for every step of the way.

About: My home has never been without pets. I currently have 4 loving dogs of my own. They are a mixed breed pack of all ages. I care for one senior dog at the moment. I’ve raised several litters of puppies and found them great homes. I was a preschool teacher before so I know patience better than most. Animals have a big place in my heart. I run a business from home so I have super flexible hours and availability to tend to any and all care needs. Your pet will be my priority. I prefer to care for the pets in their own home and familiar areas. I find this gives them a good sense that nothing is changing and reduces stress for the animal. I am very familiar with crates and crate trained animals. I pay close attention to instructions given for food and medications. I will spend time with them not just drop by for 5 minutes, giving love, attention, exercise(if permitted).

“Amy was wonderful throughout the entire process! She communicated with me every step of the way and kept me updated with videos and pictures throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind. You can truly tell she loves dogs. She has two of her own, and it shows in how naturally she cares for them. She took such great care of Lucky and even made him a fun peanut butter treat! Amy is incredibly kind, and you can genuinely tell she’s a true dog person. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy sitter for their fur baby.”

“Leslie was really great with my 2 fur babies. They were well taken care of and loved on. She did a great job sending me updates with very cute pictures! If I need a dog sitter I will definitely be booking her again!”
About: I’ve had English bulldogs for 10 years. I haven’t met a dog I didn’t love. I can administer most meds with instructions. I’ll care for your dog as if it were my own and she’s spoiled! I work full-time but mostly remote, so I’m home a lot. I can ensure your dog’s needs are met on a daily basis, they’re the best companions. I have a fenced yard and a small area with turf for potty breaks. I live near a dog park and can take them there, weather permitting. I consider dogs a part of the household so they’re allowed everywhere but I’ll also follow your lead if you have specific instructions.
“Seth, Connie and their girls were amazing and treated our boys as family. They went on multiple daily walks and provided updates throughout the stay. We will happily book with them again. Thanks!”
“This is Brittani's second time watching our two dogs. The first time was for one night while we were having some house work done. This second time was for a whole week while we were on vacation. My ten month old lab started her first heat, so Brittani knew what to do and how things work as she's managed her own dogs and is just an overall experienced animal person. We feel our dogs are in good hands with Brittani. Also, we have had older dogs in the past and boarded them elsewhere, but with our two younger pups, boarding with a person works much better for them as they get the attention they need. Josie and Little Joe were happy to come home at the end of the week, but were very happy with Brittani. They are happy and tired now. I highly recommend Brittani for dog boarding with an experienced and knowledgeable animal lover.”
“Gail was just so amazing to work with! She cared for and loved my puppy the whole time I was gone. Gail would send me daily updates with photos/videos of my baby, and it made me feel so relieved and I would 100% book with her again!”
“We needed someone to watch our older dog while we were away for a week. Being new to the area we really didn't know anyone and we wanted our dog to be in a home environment where she wouldn't be alone. My wife found Cynthia on Rover and we went over to meet her. We were immediately impressed by the secure yard and surroundings. Our dog immediately bonded with her little dog Chewey. To make sure, we arranged two "play days" to make sure that all went well. Everything went better than expected and I, being an overly protective pet parent, felt at ease with leaving our dog for a week. I had nothing to worry about. Cynthia took great care of our dog, sent us regular updates including pictures and videos. She let our dog settle-in at her house where ever our dog felt most at ease and took her out for regular walks and time in the yard. When we came back we found that our dog had such a good time that I'm not sure she wanted to leave! Needless to say that Cynthia will be our first choice to watch our dog whenever the need arises! Your dog will be in good hands.”
