“Our pup had a great time with Adam! Adam kept us informed of her behavior, since she was very shy and timid at the first meeting we were concerned how she would be with him. Adam sent us pics and kept us up to date daily while we were gone from her. Adam did set up a meet and greet the week prior to watching our pup and spent time to get to know her ! Highly recommended! Thank you Adam!”
“Ashley was an excellent sitter! It was my first time using her, and the meet and greet went well. My pup stayed with her for a week and she was very responsive, and communicated really well. I felt like she genuinely cared about my dog and he seemed well taken care of. Would highly recommend.”
“Cindy is a great sitter and really understands our fuball’s routines. Gus has IVDD, needs eye drops 3x per day and lots of love and attention - Cindy helps in all these areas!”
“Julia gracisously accommodated my last minute request. I have three “littles” and sometimes it is difficult to find someone to watch all three together. Her home is super dog friendly. My fur babies were allowed on the furniture and were able to sleep in bed with her. They seemed happy and not as anxious about my absence when I returned which tells me they were treated well and felt at home in her care. I will definitely be using her again!”
“Our experience woth Pamela was amazing! We were beyond nervous leaving our Barkley but she made the process easy. We did a pre meet up and when I went to drop him off on he actual weekend, he ran right up to the door excited. I got frequent updates on how he was doing and pick was flexible after a flight delay! Our dog is not food motivated and she would add a couple drops of broth to his bowl to make sure he got some food. I appreciate the extra attention to his care! We will def use Pamela again for future sitting.”
“1st time using Rover, could not have been happier! Brooke and her family are awesome. Thank you for the pics and flexibility. Appreciate the ease and kindness!”
“Rachel and her family were so wonderful to my dog Benny. I am so glad to have booked them. I never had to wonder how he was doing, and Rachel was so easy to communicate with from start to finish. She provided many thoughtful updates and photos of how Benny was doing throughout his stay. I could tell that my dog had a great time with them and I really appreciated all their TLC. Will definitely book again! Thanks Rachel and Family!”
“Maritza was wonderful and gave me daily updates and photos of Otis. Her two young daughters were also pictured with Otis and they were loving towards him. Otis appeared content and happy. I would definitely recommend Maritza as a loving and caring pet sitter. I will consider her as my first choice in the future.”
“Kelly took exceptional care of my baby; her home was clean and comfortable, the people were friendly and very clearly experienced pet sitters. I got pictures and video updates regularly which were very appreciated. The girls seemed to be very gentle with my dog.”
“Alani was great with Nic! She contacted me everyday, and was very patient and understanding of me working with a new sitter. Her house is adorable, and so is her dog jack! They became fast friends which is saying a lot since my dog doesn’t get along with a lot of dogs! Will definitely use her again:)”
“Ezra and Reina are fabulous. I went on a 3 week trip to Europe and was quite anxious to leave Aurora because she has a few issues. Their description of their home and way they take care of the dogs sounded like I would take care of my dog. I explained what I wanted including 3 meds and specific food requirements. They were not fazed at all with my requests; including walking Aurora each morning. I received photos and updates regularly throughout my 3 weeks away. They are now go to folks when I need to leave Aurora. Thank you.”
“Marina is the best! She helped us out when plans changed last minute and took care of my dogs as though her own. She sent videos and provided updates the whole time.”
“You will not find genuine caring honest to goodness people like this FANTASTIC couple. This was my first time ever going away and my dog was not only cared for but utterly loved the entire time with Bill and Rebekah. Can't express our gratitude more for their passion. Maple was greeted and welcomed with an adorable welcome banner We were updated everyday and received videos and photos of my dogs stay . Upon pickup Maple had an Aloha Hawaiin flower barrette they put to surprise us ! The world would be perfect if there were more people like Bill and Rebekah.”
“Christina is very responsive and helped put my mind at ease when leaving my pup for the first time. My dog loves Christina and her family and has so much fun while he's there. He has so much fun playing and is always worn out when I pick him up! 🐶”
“Ash was PHENOMENAL. She was so flexible when I was having trouble with timing, sent great and regular updates, and was even great to chat with at pickup. I will definitely book her again the next time I need a sitter for my dog.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Angela and her whole family. I left my fur baby with them for almost a month. I got daily pictures and reports. They made my dog feel right at home and treated her like a family member. I couldn’t have asked for better care.”
“Catherine was great. She gave extra attention to my pup, had excellent communication, and the walks were a bonus too. Look forward to Catherine boarding my dog again!”
“Darbi and Nathanael took excellent care of our three pups. They offered a meet and greet ahead of our first booking, which was wonderful. We felt reassured and worry free leaving our pups in their care traveling. They paid careful attention to each pup’s needs and shared updates of how it was going. When we picked up our pups, they seemed to have had a wonderful time and were very content. Thank you for your care! We appreciate it and will rebook.”

“Jadon did an amazing job caring for my two cats while I was away. He consistently sent photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind and made me feel like I could truly trust him with my pets and my home. What stood out the most was seeing how comfortable my cats were with him in the pictures. They're usually selective about people, and it was obvious that they trusted him and felt safe in his care. I would absolutely recommend Jadon to anyone. He’s truly reliable, thoughtful, and trustworthy.”
“Ana was very pleasant and took great care of my kitties while we were gone! She was very responsive and updated us daily on them, making sure they had everything they needed. Would definitely book again!”
“Veronika was absolutely amazing! My cats are very picky about who they like and they warmed up to her almost immediately. My cat Steve has particular things that need to be done when feeding and she navigated it wonderfully! I will definitely be using her services again in the future!”
“Tabbitha took excellent care of my kitties and promptly sent me visit cards with photos each time, which I really appreciated. She is quick to respond to messages and I felt relieved to have someone so caring and conscientious looking after my kids while I was away.”
About: As a physician assistant and lifelong pet owner, I bring a responsible, attentive, and genuinely caring approach to cat sitting. I just graduated with my masters degree and will be starting my first PA position soon, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to give your cats the time and attention they deserve. I’ve never lived in a home without cats or dogs, and cats have always been a huge part of my life. I understand that every cat has their own personality and routine—some want lots of attention and playtime, while others are happier with a little space and a familiar routine. I’m happy to meet your cat where they’re most comfortable. As a fellow pet owner, I completely understand how stressful it can be to leave your pets and trust someone else to care for them in your home. I take that responsibility seriously. I’m a reliable communicator and will keep you updated with pictures, videos, and messages so you can relax knowing your cat is doing well. I’m also happy to go beyond the basics of food, water, and litter. I love spending time playing with cats, giving them enrichment and attention, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m also very respectful of your home and will leave things just as I found them. My goal is simple: for your cat to feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own home—and for you to have peace of mind while you’re away.
“I will definitely be rebooking with Junjie again, my kitten Teddy absolutely loved her and was well taken care of! She provided very thorough notes and details of each visit and was amazing with him. She made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of and I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter!”
“Great job! My cat Micky was happy and healthy when I got home. I got a report for every visit and every thing was taken care of. He is an older cat (17 1/2) years, though it doesn't cause any special issues (yet), and it is such a relief to see that he is cared for when I'm away. Thank you so very much, Estefany!”
“I was lucky to find James on Rover. He accepted my last minute urgent situation and kindly provided excellent sitting and care for my little Papillon. Extended his time and services to get dog food and treats while I was gone all week. He is someone to trust and I recommend him !!! Denise P.”
“Adrienne was very attentive, caring, knowledgeable, prompt, and just a lovely carer to my cat, Wonton. She went above and beyond the call of duty and really got to know my kitty and his style in a short time. She played with him, showered him with attention, brushed him, gave him plenty of cuddles, and send tons of lovely pics. Will be using her again 100%.”
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs my whole life. I have a husky of 6 years that is practically a cat in a dog’s body. I personally get very anxious when leaving my furry friends for trips, so I know how important it is to send pictures and updates of how your fur baby is doing. 9 times out of 10 I am the person in the corner playing with the dog at social events, so I will make sure your pets are well entertained and having a good time! I am a newly licensed Cosmetologist and am currently attending Mesa Community College to get my Associates degree in Beauty & Wellness. My classes are online, so I have a very flexible schedule. Right now I am only taking house sitting requests for long weekends for ex Fri-Mon. Besides that I am open for everything else. I have a husky that has severe separation anxiety, so I will make sure that your pets are calm, safe, & sound even if that means sitting on the floor with them for hours. When taking care of multiple pets at once, I am very aware of my surroundings and making sure that everyone is getting along and having fun.
“Wonderful cat sitter! Aleksandra took great care of our cats and communicated clearly and consistently throughout the visits. We felt totally at ease knowing our cats were in good hands. Would absolutely book again.”
“Kristen did an amazing job taking care of my two cats! She was very knowledgeable in pet care and sent me pictures of her visits everyday. She offered to meet up with me beforehand to go over my cats needs and she was excellent with communicating! I was so happy to have a good first experience with rover ☺️”
About: It first started with my mom's coworker's five cats, followed by caring for a cat and dog for three weeks. My requests gradually began to include both dogs and cats. In June 2024, I adopted my own kitten. His name is Zeus. He is my first cat, and I have learned a lot since adopting him. I frequently hear how cats receive a bad representation about being low maintenance, or cold and distant, but I could disagree. Both cats and dogs both need equal amount of love, attention, and playtime, they are just in different forms of love.
“Maria was fantastic! She took great care of my 2 cats while I was out of town, and I loved how she sent me lots of pictures and a detailed write-up each day. I definitely plan to use her again in the future!”
About: I've spent years taking care of family and friends' animals - primarily cats and dogs. I have my own high-energy herding pup and am familiar with the ins and outs of an animal. I've had experience with sensitivity and reactivity as well. I'm excited to love on and spend time with your pets! I am currently working part-time so I have flexiblity and time to hang with your pets. Let me know what their schedule looks like, and we can see if it is a good fit! I am very aware of my surroundings and cognizant of animal body language (from working with my own pup). I try to meet the energy of the animal - cat want alone time, or only to play a little bit? Fine by me! High-energy dog needs multiple walks during the day? Also works for me.
“This is the second time I've had Valerie take care of Mimi, and I couldn't be more pleased with her services. During her visit, Mimi followed her around constantly, much like she does with us after we've been out for a long time. It's evident that Mimi views her as a trusted friend. Valerie's genuine care and understanding of pets, especially cats, is truly commendable. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and loving pet sitter.”
“Mink was in wonderful hands with Adam and Fang! They were very patient, welcoming hosts and it looked like all 3 of them had a wonderful time together. Adam sent us multiple videos every day which we really appreciated. Leaving Mink during trips is never easy, but we felt confident he was well cared for at Adam's house. Thank you Adam and Fang!”

About: As a physician assistant and lifelong pet owner, I bring a responsible, attentive, and genuinely caring approach to pet sitting. I just graduated with my masters degree and will be starting my first PA position soon, which means I have a flexible schedule and am home most of the day to give your pets plenty of attention and companionship. I’ve never lived in a home without cats or dogs, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have a Mini Australian Shepherd and a Weimaraner who absolutely love to play and would be happy to have some furry friends around. I have a large, pet-friendly home and live in an area that makes it easy for me to travel to your home or welcome dogs into mine. What sets me apart is how much I genuinely enjoy making sure pets are happy, stimulated, and well cared for—not just fed and let outside. I love finding ways to keep dogs mentally and physically engaged, including toys and activities like foraging mats and enrichment games. As a fellow pet owner, I completely understand the anxiety that comes with leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I take that trust seriously. I’m a strong communicator and will keep you updated with plenty of pictures, messages, and whatever information helps you feel comfortable while you’re away. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your pets are safe, loved, and having a great time. Hi there, my name is Andrea! I just graduated with my master’s degree and have a little bit of time before I start my first job. I have a very flexible schedule and a passion for taking care of pets. Tell me what you need and I’m there! Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, my priority is keeping them safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine as much as possible. For dogs in my home: I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and mental enrichment throughout the day. I have a Mini Australian Shepherd and a Weimaraner who love to play, so I’m comfortable with energetic dogs and enjoy giving them opportunities for both physical and mental stimulation. I also use enrichment toys and activities, such as foraging mats, to keep pets engaged. I’m home most of the day, so pets receive lots of companionship rather than being left alone for long periods. In your home: I do my best to keep your pets’ routines as close to normal as possible. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, litter care, and anything else that helps your pet feel comfortable. I’m respectful of your home and will make sure everything is clean and secure when I leave. For both dogs and cats, I believe good communication is an important part of pet sitting. I’ll send regular updates and plenty of photos so you know how your pets are doing and can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.

“Cindy is fantastic. Our dog spent a few workdays while one of us was traveling, and he clearly felt comfortable and happy while at the same time Cindy provided a structured, calm, and enriching environment for him. He got walks and puzzles and even another dog friend to play with on occasion. Cindy was very patient, attentive, and kind. She has an excellent confident demeanor and establishes boundaries effectively and naturally with the pups. I would recommend Cindy in a heartbeat.”
“AMAZING. She sent me so many photos of my pretty pup, and she had a blast with her friendly dogs! Definitely recommend and definitely will be going through her again!”
About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality. I have a dog and a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets while you’re away. I love being active with my dog—we’re always going on walks, hikes, exploring outside, or spending time at the lake. But we definitely love our chill days too. I’m patient, attentive, and pretty flexible when it comes to different personalities and routines. Whether your pet loves playing and being active or would rather relax and have their own space, I’m happy to meet them where they’re comfortable. I’m currently home full-time, which means I’m able to spend lots of time with the pets in my care. I also have my own fenced-in front yard and a large grassy area right outside for potty breaks, walks, and outdoor time. I’ll always keep you updated with plenty of photos and videos so you can see how your pet is doing. 🐾 I do pet sitting full-time, so I’m able to provide lots of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. My schedule is very flexible, including availability for many last-minute bookings. I focus on creating a calm, structured, and stress-free environment where pets can settle in comfortably. I pay close attention to body language, routines, and individual needs to help every pet feel secure while they’re away from home. I can easily separate pets when needed and always prioritize safe introductions, supervision, and a clean environment. I also have a fully fenced in backyard.
“Loki really enjoyed his stay with Brittany on 5.21.26. Thank you so much for being able to sit with him at the last minute. I will definitely reach out again if I need someone to watch him again.”

I'm really athletic and make it an initiative to have active fun and discipline with pets I can do pet care full time or part time as of.

From proper feeding, affection/encouragement to discipline and fun, finished with my Optional Pet clean service
About: Hey there, my name is Estefany. I have a full time job and only work three days a week so I love to check on pets on my days off. Due to a schedule that changes every week, I ask that requests are made at least a week in advance so we can schedule a meet and greet and have everything ready before the day of the first visit. Your pet’s safety is my upmost priority! I have worked with many animals and many different personalities. I do require meet and greets for dogs but with cats I’m a little more flexible when needed. My prices for boarding and house sitting are higher because I don’t typically offer them but please ask about house sitting if you don’t need me to stay overnight and I can bring the price down! For boarding, a doggy day care booking prior is required so please make sure you are requesting with time. I have two dogs at home and need to make sure it’s a good fit for everyone before proceeding! This is something I’ve been doing for about 3 years so I do take it very seriously and love what I do!
“Susan did an amazing job watching Ava for the day! Took her out for walks multiple times, played with her and sent multiple updates and picture to let me know she was settling in well. I would highly recommend Susan!”
About: Your dog will be treated like family while staying in our home. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for every dog in my care. One thing that sets my care apart is that I only accept one family's booking at a time. While I may care for multiple dogs from the same household, I do not mix dogs from different families. This allows me to provide more individualized attention, maintain a calm environment, and ensure your dog feels safe and comfortable during their stay. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and needs, including senior dogs and dogs requiring oral or injectable medications. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply a calm place to relax, I tailor their stay to what makes them most comfortable. While we live in an apartment, your dog will receive multiple daily walks, exercise, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I enjoy staying active and make sure dogs in my care get the physical activity and enrichment they need. My son and I love spending time with dogs, and Rover has become a wonderful way for us to share that love while helping pet parents feel confident their pets are being cared for. Since we do not currently have pets of our own, visiting dogs receive lots of individualized attention during their stay. I know being away from your dog can be stressful, so I provide regular photo updates and communication throughout their visit. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for. Before booking, I always encourage a meet-and-greet so we can make sure we're a great fit for each other. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Pets in my care receive plenty of attention and are not left alone for extended periods. Dogs receive multiple daily walks and exercise tailored to their age, energy level, and needs. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel connected to your pet while you're away. Because I only accept one family's pets at a time, I am able to focus on providing individualized care and maintaining a calm, comfortable environment for each guest. I only accept one family’s pets at a time, creating a calm, safe environment where each pet receives personalized attention, comfort, and loving care.

“Bella was fantastic! Very communicative, on time and happy to do what the dogs needed! She asked a lot of questions. Indie and Bo are a handful, I don't generally leave them behind, but I would call Bella again and again! She was great with them!”
About: I grew up with a brindle boxer who was truly part of my family, and losing her a couple years ago was one of the hardest things I’ve gone through. Since then, I’ve been fostering dogs through the Humane Society, everything from shy rescues to energetic puppies. Ive fostered dogs that had kennel cough to dogs that needed to gain weight after being rescued from horrible conditions. Fostering taught me how to handle different personalities, build trust with nervous dogs, and give each pet the patience and love they need. Caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life, and I bring that same level of attention and compassion to every pet I watch. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine. I’m available most days and fully flexible, I'm pursuing a degree and have class Tuesday and Thursday from 9am–12pm, but I’m available the rest of the day and all other days of the week. This gives me a very flexible schedule for walks, drop‑ins, and house sitting. I plan my day around pet care, so your dog always gets consistent attention, timely visits, and plenty of love. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I follow all instructions exactly, keep doors and gates securely closed, and make sure your dog is never put in an unsafe situation. I’m calm, patient, and experienced with foster dogs, so I know how to handle different personalities and energy levels. I always double‑check leashes, harnesses, and feeding routines, and I keep a close eye on your pet during every visit. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times.
About: I’ve been around and caring for pets for as long as I can remember. I have 6 years of experience taking care of dogs and cats for family, friends, and neighbors. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, check-ins, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m responsible, patient, and treat every pet like they’re my own! I’m currently a full-time college student, so my schedule is mostly based around my classes. I have plenty of free time outside of class and am available for pet sitting, walks, and check-ins throughout the week and on weekends. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. I have experience caring for pets and will follow your routine, instructions, and any special needs closely. I also have cats of my own that I absolutely love!
About: I’ve had pets my entire life. My family had a two high energy dogs growing up and even from a young age I would enjoy caring for the two of them. After they passed, I volunteered at my local humane society, working mainly with dogs. When I was about 17, I convinced my family to adopt a puppy. I taught him basic commands, potty training, and basic leash skills. I currently own a cat who is equal parts sweetheart and menace. Being tasked with raising a kitten turned out to have a massive learning curve, but he is absolutely spoiled with playtime, toys, and treats. He is currently being leash trained and we’re working on anxiety associated with his crate. I have a PRN position at a children’s hospital, so I have plenty of time to check in on your baby/babies. I work a short Monday shift from 12-4PM. I have a hybrid pharmacy schedule, so I am able to attend classes from wherever I am. I care for all pets with love and respect. The main goal is to establish trust with new pets by allowing them to approach me with interest on their own terms, even if it takes a while. Providing pets with playtime and attention is a priority after their daily basic needs are met. I believe in gentle correction or making an activity more interesting with treats or a favorite toy when a pet is acting up or disinterested.
About: Hello!! My name is Brooklynn and I've been watching animals since I was 14 and absolutely love it. I'm a biology graduate student which allows me a flexible schedule throughout the day. I have lots of experience with both puppies and nervous rescues, and am happy to take care of any other pets too. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets :) In addition to adult dogs, I have experience watching puppies that are currently in training. If you need a sitter who can practice training/potty skills with patience, I have to experience to help keep up those skills while you're away. And a little fun fact about me: I'm actually getting my PhD in evolutionary biology right now studying nonhuman primates. My lab also studies dog aging and social behavior. Overall I really just an am animal lover and have decided to pursue that in my career. I can't wait to come meet your pets! I'm currently a graduate student at ASU, and my schedule is very flexible. I occasionally have meetings on campus, but a lot of my work can be done from any place with wifi! When I care for dogs overnight I will stay in my clients house for the duration of their trip. This usually makes anxious animals a lot more comfortable while their owners are away, which is always important to me! If the dogs are used to being walked, I make sure to keep up with their walking schedule and get them plenty of exercise.
About: I have helped take care of my own dogs since I was about 14 in any way I can. I am naturally drawn to animals and have a passion for helping them. I am on the pursuit to become a Clinical Psychologist. I love to give those who do not have a voice the treatment they deserve. I hope I can provide that warmth and comfort to your family! I am currently in college but have plenty of time outside of my classes. I am flexible with what people may need. I can accommodate certain situations if needed. I do not have home visits. My two dogs are both regularly bathed, fed and loved. They have been trained in the past but not by myself.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Kristen was amazing with Sterling! She was kind, communicative, and totally in tune with his quirks. I loved getting photo updates, and it was clear she treated him like her own. He came back happy and relaxed. I’d book her again in a heartbeat!”
“Taylor was very good with my dog and was super helpful when I had a sudden schedule change during the week. I really appreciated her picking up the walks when my usual walker was out of town.”
About: Hi! I'm Mckenna, a junior at Arizona State University studying Sports Business. When I'm not in class, playing on ASU's club soccer team, or working at Grass Clippings Rolling Hills, I love spending time outside—and I think every walk is better with a dog by your side! I've grown up with dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always come naturally to me. I taught my childhood dog several tricks and would take him on daily walks whenever I was home. Over the years, I've also cared for many friends' and family's dogs and cats, giving me experience with pets of different personalities and energy levels. Whether your dog loves long walks, quick potty breaks, a leisurely stroll, or an outdoor adventure, I'm happy to match their pace and routine. I know every pet is different, so I'll always follow your instructions carefully to make sure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and cared for. I'm also comfortable administering medication if needed. I currently offer dog walking and occasional pet sitting. While I don't have much experience with senior dogs yet, I'm more than happy to care for them and will carefully follow any instructions to make sure they get the attention and support they need. As a busy college student, I enjoy having something active and rewarding to break up my routine, and spending time with animals is the perfect way to do that. I'll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention during our time together, and you can always expect photo updates so you know they're having a great time! I can't wait to meet you and your furry best friend! As a junior at Arizona State University, I have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to care for pets. I only have classes Monday through Wednesday, work two to three evening a week at Grass Clippings Rolling Hills, and practice with ASU's club soccer team a few times a week. This leaves me with lots of availability for dog walks, drop-in visits, and occasional pet sitting. I enjoy getting outside and staying active, so spending time with pets fits perfectly into my weekly routine. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own routine, so I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. When caring for pets in your home, I'll treat both your pet and your home with respect, making sure everything is secure before I leave. I'll also send regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving the attention and care they deserve.
About: I have owned pets my whole life and have a passion for taking care of furry friends! I began sitting for friends and neighbors when I was really young and grew up helping my grandmother and aunt who both ran their own doggy daycare and sitting businesses. I am well versed in dog walking, stopping in to check on pups, and overnight stays. While I am most experienced in smaller to medium sized dogs I have watched over all types of breeds and I am confident in taking care of any dog! I currently have a part time job that only takes up about 6-7 hours a week. I am extremely flexible and available early mornings and late nights. Pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I make sure to create a clean, safe, and comfortable environment to make sure your dog feels at home. I am extremely attentive and take care instructions very seriously. I will always ensure that your dog receives the right amount of supervision, exercise, and affection!
About: My experience caring for family pets began at 16 years old. A noteworthy pet sitting involved caring for a household with one female dog, her six newly born puppies, two adolescent dogs, and a senior dog for a week and a half. I believe this highs shows my ability to handle diverse pet household needs. Also, I have gained some experience in pet care for cats since October 2023. I work 12-hour shifts from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, and every other Wednesday. I am available every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, along with every other Wednesday. I can inform you if I have that week's Wednesday off or not when you send your request. As a pet owner of a dog and a cat, I understand that each pet requires a unique approach to their daily habits and needs. I will stand by your instructions for the care of your pet(s), with the consideration I expect when others care for my own pets when I'm away. I hold no judgment over their care needs.
“Ashley arrived promptly and followed all instructions getting into the apartment for my 14 year old madam Biba … Biba would take Ashley for her walk and Ashley was lovely to be patient, Ashley also sent photos everyday of Biba loving her early morning walks. I highly recommend her and will be using her when we get back after the summer break.”
About: I’ve been rescuing animals all of my life and I love doing so . There’s nothing better than being able to nurture such beautiful creatures . I don’t work so I have nothing but time and an open schedule for any one that needs it . Your word will actually be catered too I treat them just like they are my own pets with nothing but love cuddles and play time I am a true fur mom and take pride in so !
“Zack was on time and communicated when he arrived to walk Lily. He was kind enough to send pictures of her. Very professional and I appreciated that he took the time to meet with me before walking her. Will definitely go to him for more walks and drop in services!”
About: There is something sooo special about cats and dogs. I try and read their minds and it’s fun. I’m super affectionate but also understand that each one of them are different and deserve the connection they require to be happy and to feel supported -and entertained. I can manage a flexible schedule. I’m flexible in general. I can take care of other duties needed while I’m caring for your home and pets. Weekends I’d be primarily be stationed at the client’s home and during the week, it depends on the day/s. I am a quiet person who likes to read, write and create. Being around animals does something for my soul and is why I am looking for pets to care for. I will accommodate what is needed for you to be able to continue the love and support your pets get from you while you are away.
About: I’ve had all types of pet dogs (small, medium, large) that I’ve learned how to take care of. I have been paid to watch and clean family members dogs in the past. I am young so I am able to do more labor. I am able to give dogs oral medication, and have experience using medicinal creams on dogs. I am able to (and love to!) play with dogs to make sure they have fun. I am no squeamish with cleaning up after animal mistakes, and I can care for multiple dogs as once including puppies and seniors! I’m soon to be enrolled in college full time. I can care for pets over weekends for the full day, and Friday’s after 10 am!! Until school starts though, (August 9th) I am free every day at every time!! If needed, I can watch animals at my mom’s house which has a nice, fenced backyard to play in along with 3 others dogs and 2 cats. (Will mention, one cat is more fiesty with other animals, but i will be putting her in a separate space, and the most she could do is claw) I don’t think I would recommend my mom’s home for seniors or puppies due to an overstimulating environment and a 5 year old.
“Angel is the best! He Is very responsible and cares a lot for our puppy! He loves to play and spend time with him like he’s his own dog. His compassion and education about animals Will help him become a great VET in the future. We are lucky to have Angel as our repeat sister!”
About: Current Biomedical Engineering Student at ASU, past Vet Assistant. I’ve always loving dogs and cats, but can’t have any, and wish to work with them! During Mondays, I am available until 10AM and after 1 PM. On Tuesdays, I am available after 3 PM. Weekends I’m completely free after 12 PM. I’m a full time student, so I provide time spans that give flexibility so I won’t let you and your pet down! I’ve learned to maintain control of my environment for the safety of your pet as well as those around us in terms of being in your home or neighborhood.
About: My mom was a veterinarian, so I grew up with pets. Not only do I have a deep love for animals, like my mom, but I also have true experience caring for them. I’m free Friday-Sunday and occasionally have free days during the week. I currently work part-time and attend ASU part-time, so I’m not available for anything last minute. I always care for pets in their home the way they would be cared for by their owner to avoid causing them any stress or anxiety.

“Our pup had a great time with Adam! Adam kept us informed of her behavior, since she was very shy and timid at the first meeting we were concerned how she would be with him. Adam sent us pics and kept us up to date daily while we were gone from her. Adam did set up a meet and greet the week prior to watching our pup and spent time to get to know her ! Highly recommended! Thank you Adam!”
“1st time using Rover, could not have been happier! Brooke and her family are awesome. Thank you for the pics and flexibility. Appreciate the ease and kindness!”
“Rachel and her family were so wonderful to my dog Benny. I am so glad to have booked them. I never had to wonder how he was doing, and Rachel was so easy to communicate with from start to finish. She provided many thoughtful updates and photos of how Benny was doing throughout his stay. I could tell that my dog had a great time with them and I really appreciated all their TLC. Will definitely book again! Thanks Rachel and Family!”
“Maritza was wonderful and gave me daily updates and photos of Otis. Her two young daughters were also pictured with Otis and they were loving towards him. Otis appeared content and happy. I would definitely recommend Maritza as a loving and caring pet sitter. I will consider her as my first choice in the future.”
“Alani was great with Nic! She contacted me everyday, and was very patient and understanding of me working with a new sitter. Her house is adorable, and so is her dog jack! They became fast friends which is saying a lot since my dog doesn’t get along with a lot of dogs! Will definitely use her again:)”
“Ezra and Reina are fabulous. I went on a 3 week trip to Europe and was quite anxious to leave Aurora because she has a few issues. Their description of their home and way they take care of the dogs sounded like I would take care of my dog. I explained what I wanted including 3 meds and specific food requirements. They were not fazed at all with my requests; including walking Aurora each morning. I received photos and updates regularly throughout my 3 weeks away. They are now go to folks when I need to leave Aurora. Thank you.”
“Marina is the best! She helped us out when plans changed last minute and took care of my dogs as though her own. She sent videos and provided updates the whole time.”
“You will not find genuine caring honest to goodness people like this FANTASTIC couple. This was my first time ever going away and my dog was not only cared for but utterly loved the entire time with Bill and Rebekah. Can't express our gratitude more for their passion. Maple was greeted and welcomed with an adorable welcome banner We were updated everyday and received videos and photos of my dogs stay . Upon pickup Maple had an Aloha Hawaiin flower barrette they put to surprise us ! The world would be perfect if there were more people like Bill and Rebekah.”
“Christina is very responsive and helped put my mind at ease when leaving my pup for the first time. My dog loves Christina and her family and has so much fun while he's there. He has so much fun playing and is always worn out when I pick him up! 🐶”
“Darbi and Nathanael took excellent care of our three pups. They offered a meet and greet ahead of our first booking, which was wonderful. We felt reassured and worry free leaving our pups in their care traveling. They paid careful attention to each pup’s needs and shared updates of how it was going. When we picked up our pups, they seemed to have had a wonderful time and were very content. Thank you for your care! We appreciate it and will rebook.”
“We got so many updates & pictures while away & our dog was so happy staying with Madison. We felt way more comfortable leaving him with her than boarding at a kennel. We would definitely use Madison in the future :)”
“Ashley has a wonderful home to accommodate pups! She was very responsive and provided updates during our trip. Thank you Ashley for keeping our pup safe during our trip!”
“Jocelyn was GREAT! My dog unfortunately had a couple of accidents while visiting her home because it was a new place and he had anxiety and she was so understanding and considerate. She kept me updated throughout my trip and even dropped off my pups for me after. Can’t recommend enough, I will definitely use her again!”
About: Hello! My name is Liz and I can say with gratitude that I have been raised besides dogs. I can’t remember a period of time where I haven’t had a dog by my side. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I work a full time jobs but am very lucky to have the ability to work from home so I am able to spend majority of the day at home with your fur baby! This gives me the ability to be extremely flexible! I have a doggie myself who takes some time at the spa (her grandparents home) when I get to spend time with your doggie! I truly will treat your pet as my own, I know how important it is to have trust in a sitter. I take multiple pictures a day and give active updates to give you that peace of mind.
“Nique did a great job for me. I contacted her with very short notice (about 48 hours from needing a sitter) and she was still able to accommodate and work with me. My dog Achilles stayed with her for a week and was treated very well, thank you!”
“I’ve had amazing experience with Huaqing. My cat is very shy and scared of people. Huaqing took great care and was accommodating to all my requests! She provided daily updates with pictures even when my cat gave hard time while taking them. I felt quite reassured on my trip knowing my cat is at safe place. She sent my cat off home with extra treats and toys and a handwritten card. It’s a 10/10 experience and I would love to board my cat with Huaqing again. Thank you for being an awesome sitter!”
“Jemaury was good with my pup! I actually enjoy knowing she’ll be playing with other doggie friends. Jemaury sends me pictures throughout the day, and is flexible with time.”
