“I had Julie watch our very shy yellow lab. We are planning a vacation and I need our dog to get use to Julies house. Julie and her husband were really wonderful, we did a meet and greet first and then a over night stay. They have a completely fenced yard, couches have covers on them for a dog to sit on and a baby gate to prevent a dog from accidentally going out the front door.”

“We had an excellent experience with our dog sitter while we were away for six days. She took the time to schedule a meet and greet beforehand to ensure it was a great fit, which immediately gave us confidence in her care. Throughout our vacation, she provided consistent communication with thoughtful updates, photos, and videos, allowing us to truly relax knowing our dogs were well cared for. When one of our dogs experienced a decrease in appetite, she promptly communicated with us and worked through solutions, which we greatly appreciated. Her attentiveness, reliability, and genuine care for our dogs made our trip completely stress-free. We are very thankful to have found such a dedicated and involved sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.”

About: Pet Care Experience I have hands-on experience caring for my own dog and understand the responsibilities involved in providing daily care. My duties included feeding and providing fresh water, taking my dog on regular walks for exercise, grooming, cleaning up after them, and ensuring they had a safe and comfortable environment. I also monitored my dog's health and behavior, administered medications when needed as directed, and provided plenty of attention, playtime, and affection to support their overall well-being. Through this experience, I developed patience, responsibility, and a strong understanding of the importance of consistent, compassionate pet care. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine. I make time each day to feed my dog, provide fresh water, take them on walks, clean up after them, and spend time playing and interacting with them. I also make sure they receive any needed grooming and monitor their health and behavior to ensure they are happy and well cared for. Caring for my dog has helped me develop consistency, responsibility, and a strong commitment to meeting an animal's daily needs. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I follow the owner's instructions to ensure the pet stays on its normal routine. I provide fresh food and water, regular walks and exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I clean up after pets, keep their living areas clean, and monitor their behavior for any signs of illness or discomfort. If medications are required, I administer them according to the owner's directions. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment while treating every pet with patience, kindness, and care.

“Annie was a professional yet patient sitter with our cat, Cy! She did exacltly what we told her as a drop in sitter while we were away — giving Cy his good, water, and cleaning his litter box. Our cat is very shy with people and she was nice enough to just go and find him to make sure he was ok. She kept me updated with a follow-up text, making sure he felt was well cared for and comfortable. It’s clear she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. We came home to a happy, relaxed cat. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Highly recommend Annie to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and attentive. She is very trustworthy, very respectful to both your pets and home.”

This was my first time leaving them this long - they’re rescues so I was really nervous, but I felt so much better knowing they were in Roisin’s care, especially with all the pics/updates. She’s very trustworthy and followed their feeding schedule perfectly. I will absolutely be rebooking with Roisin. Thank you!”

We always stay outside with them. Inside the house is pet proofed with couch protection covers and scratching posts for cats. All kitty litter is gated off from dog access.

About: Hello there! After recently saying goodbye to our beloved senior Chihuahua, Moe, our home feels far too quiet without any furry friends. Starting this new chapter in pet care is very exciting, and I'm looking forward to giving your pet a safe and fun place to stay. I am the primary sitter but will be assisted by my girlfriend Sam who lives with me. Your dog will benefit from a multi-person home with plenty of attention and companionship. We have no pets or children so your furry friend will be the king or queen of the house! Whether your pet needs a quiet spot to lounge or energetic play sessions and walks, I am flexible to their personality. I have cared for pets of all shapes and sizes for family & friends over the years. I pride myself in being attentive to your pet along with flexible and easy to work with. My goal is to make your pet feel completely at home while allowing you to relax during your travels! I am happy to provide as many updates you would like. My longtime girlfriend and I both work from home everyday! We have plenty of time to care for your pet. We can accommodate your pets schedule however needed. Our home is free roaming and pet friendly. Doggies are welcome in bed or on the couch if they desire. We also have a very large backyard and enjoy walks if that is your pets preference.

Safety First: Certified in emergency handling and reading subtle animal body language. Reliable Updates: Frequent photo, video, and text check-ins during every visit. I am currently at home most of the day, which means your beloved pet will receive constant supervision, love, and attention! Because of my open schedule, I can offer ultimate flexibility—whether that means hosting a fun staycation in my home, coming to yours for multiple daily visits, or doing quick midday 'let outs' while you are at work. I am proud to have a very welcoming pack of my own, including two sweet female miniature dachshunds and a friendly, medium-sized female terrier mix. All three of my girls absolutely love making new friends and are incredibly well-behaved with other dogs. Your pup will instantly feel like part of our family, enjoying non-stop companionship and a safe, joyful environment tailored completely to their daily routine! Your pup will enjoy the ultimate freedom and safety during their stay with me! I have a massive, 6-foot fenced-in yard that offers plenty of room for high-energy zoomies, fetch, and outdoor exploration. For absolute peace of mind, all gates are securely locked from the inside, making the yard 100% secure. When we are indoors, your dog will enjoy full access to the entire house, meaning they can lounge on the couch, follow me around, and truly treat my home as their own. They will never be restricted to a single room, ensuring they feel relaxed, comfortable, and fully part of the family.

“Denise was honestly incredible! It was pretty short notice and some people wouldn’t watch Caesar because he’s a pitbull, she rearranged her schedule to watch him. She gave me multiple updates and pictures throughout. When I came to pick him up, she gave me a painting he made (with the help of peanut butter and plastic wrap I assume)! 1000% recommend”

About: I’m a caring and dependable pet sitter with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, crate routines, and keeping pets company. I’m especially patient with puppies and energetic pets, and I pay close attention to each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. I’m happy to provide regular updates and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently in school, so I have flexibility in my schedule for pet care, especially during the daytime, evenings, and weekends depending on my class schedule. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and provide consistent, reliable care rather than rushing through a visit. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow your instructions, keep doors and gates secure, stay aware of my surroundings during walks, and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I’ll maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and communicate with you if anything seems unusual. I treat every home and pet with the same respect I would want for my own.

About: Hello there! After recently saying goodbye to our beloved senior Chihuahua, Moe, our home feels far too quiet without any furry friends. Starting this new chapter in pet care is very exciting, and I'm looking forward to giving your pet a safe and fun place to stay. I am the primary sitter but will be assisted by my girlfriend Sam who lives with me. Your dog will benefit from a multi-person home with plenty of attention and companionship. We have no pets or children so your furry friend will be the king or queen of the house! Whether your pet needs a quiet spot to lounge or energetic play sessions and walks, I am flexible to their personality. I have cared for pets of all shapes and sizes for family & friends over the years. I pride myself in being attentive to your pet along with flexible and easy to work with. My goal is to make your pet feel completely at home while allowing you to relax during your travels! I am happy to provide as many updates you would like. My longtime girlfriend and I both work from home everyday! We have plenty of time to care for your pet. We can accommodate your pets schedule however needed. Our home is free roaming and pet friendly. Doggies are welcome in bed or on the couch if they desire. We also have a very large backyard and enjoy walks if that is your pets preference.

About: Hi! I’m Nicole, and I work remotely as a graphic designer while pet-sitting! I’d love to hang out with your baby or take them on walks or just keep them company! The details: I’m currently open for a recurring lunch time walk/drop-in spot! I do have meetings throughout the day and work full-time, so it’s u likely I can accommodate any other weekday times. Weeknights and weekends are open though! I am open to sitting for all types of animals! I love to be outdoors, so walking and playing with your pet will be a treat for both me and them. I’m also cool with a little snuggle bug watching tv on the couch! I’ve walked and spent time with dogs of all shapes and sizes through volunteer work at a shelter in SK. You can count on me to love your pet as my own while I’m with them. I have no problem giving medication or any other special needs your dog might have. - I require meet & greets. - All pets must be up to date on vaccines. - All pets must be in generally good health. - I am not able to offer constant care during daytime hours on weekdays. (Additional costs will be applied for constant care). - Please let me know all about their personality, quirks, and habits! House Sitting notes: Every sitter uses this service a bit differently. For my services, house sitting = staying overnight in your home and caring for the pet between 5pm - 8am and 1 drop in around noon. Any additional needs require additional drop-in costs because I am not able to stay in your home the entire day (I must care for my own pet and another client daily). Don’t hesitate to ask questions if you have any! I'd love to hang out with your pet and work out a schedule! I do work full-time but have some flexibility in my hours. I currently have an opening for lunchtime walks or drop-ins, and I’m always open to doggy daycare. Weeknights and weekends are open! My home has a fenced in yard with lots of room to run and play, our house is small but we live in a quiet neighborhood with lots of good places to walk and sniff!

I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy while following their routines closely, and I always make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and care.

I prefer morning and afternoon schedules, allowing me to provide consistent attention, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship.

When I returned, my dogs were calm and relaxed, which says everything about the level of care they received. I’m so grateful to have found her and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate dog walker”

About: Hi! Currently we have a 7 month old toy Australian shepherd puppy. I am a very active person that loves to love on pups by taking them for walks, playing in my fenced yard or offering snuggles! You can expect a total dog lover who will follow your rules and make your pup feel comfortable. I prefer smaller dogs with lots of energy because I love to walk dogs! I work from home. I enjoy taking the boarded pups for 1-2 walks per day. Our senior pup recently passed but I love the oldies too! Lots of love for them! I have a large, fenced yard and many routes for walks. I am an avid runner and can run with your dog at a pace of 8-9 minutes per mile for a minimum of 1 mile and maximum of 6 miles, after that I get tired!

Being something that I like to do since before coming to this country is something that I want to dedicate myself to for an indeterminate time. I have a fenced yard and at the moment I don't have small children, so all the attention will be focused on pets for as long as they need it.

About: I have owned a pup for 13 years and taught him how to be the best behaved dog at home - not to mention, I give the best doggy hugs and kisses :) My Fiance and I work from home all week so it’s usually not common for any dogs to be left alone. I give them all of my attention, and assure you are updated with all my pupdates!! I make sure to give them enough time outside, feed them, hydrate them, and of course give them unconditional love! Currently work from home and a very flexible job so I am able to provide most attention towards your pup and in general I have a lot of free time I got on multiple walks every day, I prefer walks over letting them out for potty breaks in a fenced yard. Getting their energy out on a long walk always calms them down a bit more throughout the day and I ensure they get all attention throughout the day :)

About: From my first family dog at 5 to taking care of my grandparents dogs growing up, I have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I have easily spent more time with them, than without. I was a friends go to for taking care of their Boston Terrier when they went on vacation in my teenage years, and more recently I have been the same for a carefree Husky and loving Rottie mix during longer family vacations, and soon a pair of awesome sibling Samoyeds. I am currently in an off year for school, so I have the privilege of having open availability. I used to work overnights so I tend to be awake late in the evening, but am not against pet care earlier in the day. I am a very patient and caring person and I understand your relationship with your dog is important. With that said I am willing to accommodate the needs of your pet and you. Whether they need plenty of playtime, affection, or guidance, I am more than excited to provide.

About: Natural born dog whisperer. Wanted a Pit bull ended up with a Chihuahua. I truly believe Cuco, my dog, was my animal soulmate. Although he has since passed, I loved caring for him full time and now hope to have the opportunity to care for your pup part time. I am a patient walker — even if that means infinite stops to sniff stuff. Will always speak to them as I would to a human child. Plus, no human children in household only your pet child. Can help with potty training and social/public anxiety relief. Guaranteed good belly rubs, affection, and fresh bowl of water/food at all times under my care. I’d be thrilled to take very photogenic pictures of them and send them your way along with updates. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any additional questions and/or concerns. I am a remote employee and am home 100% of the time with your pet. Pups are welcomed to join me for a day of work, enjoy window views (bark at delivery drivers) and take all the naps desired. Sliding door for them to look outside while inside. Indoor cameras to keep an eye on pup if up to trouble from my office. Designated space in the living room, kitchen, office, and loft for them. This is our home, and we hope to make your pup feel right at home too—pups are allowed on all furniture (couches, human beds). My partner Martin also lives here—he’s a very loving caretaker of dogs and often helps keep them busy on weekends or when he’s not at work.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have always had a love for animals. My current dog, Ellie, is a 4-year-old Shih-Poo. Before Ellie, our family dog was Cora, who was also a Shih-Poo and lived to be 16 years old. I also volunteered at a local dog shelter for 4 months, where I walked and bathed dogs of all different sizes. I helped my dad train Ellie, and I regularly help with her bathing, walking, and grooming. I’ve also dog-sat for family and friends while they’ve been away on vacation. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I would treat your dog with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. 🐾 I work full-time during the week, so my availability for pet care is primarily on weekends. I’m committed to being dependable and making sure each pet feels comfortable and well cared for while they’re with me. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly 4 year old dog. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I’m happy to take the time to get to know them and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll also keep pet parents updated so they know how their pet is doing.

Don’t hesitate to ask questions if you have any! I'd love to hang out with your pet and work out a schedule! I do work full-time but have some flexibility in my hours. I currently have an opening for lunchtime walks or drop-ins, and I’m always open to doggy daycare. Weeknights and weekends are open! My home has a fenced in yard with lots of room to run and play, our house is small but we live in a quiet neighborhood with lots of good places to walk and sniff!

About: Just an RN looking for a fun side gig (and an excuse to spend more time with dogs! 🐶❤️) While I'm new to Rover, I’ve been a dog lover/owner my whole life and have had up to 3 dogs at once! I have experience with overnight sitting for family and friends and will treat your pup like my own. 🐾 I’m responsible, caring, and always happy to give plenty of walks, playtime, and belly rubs! I can't wait to meet your 4 legged family members! My schedule is quite flexible! Weekday mornings/afternoons are usually best, but let me know what you need, and we can try to find something that works for you. I'm a rule follower and great at following instructions, so you can rest assured your pup is in great hands. I will make sure to follow your dog's normal routine and get them home safe!

About: I’ve taken care of many pets! From dog to tarantula I’ve had them all. I’ve handled the stubborn breeds like bull terrier to the loving breed like Labradors. I’ve raised multiple kitten litters and helped them get adopted out and took in many strays. I treat every animal as my own. Im available every week day after 8am! If im needed earlier I can make it work as well. My schedule may be more open soon depending on jobs. Pet care come first for me so no need to worry about anything preventing me from that. I can easily crate your dog if needed and have a fenced in dog park. I do live in an apartment complex so room isn’t as spacious as a house.

Hank had the best time, from playing in the fenced in backyard to making friends with her sweet dog. We definitely recommend Amy!”

About: Pet Care Experience I have hands-on experience caring for my own dog and understand the responsibilities involved in providing daily care. My duties included feeding and providing fresh water, taking my dog on regular walks for exercise, grooming, cleaning up after them, and ensuring they had a safe and comfortable environment. I also monitored my dog's health and behavior, administered medications when needed as directed, and provided plenty of attention, playtime, and affection to support their overall well-being. Through this experience, I developed patience, responsibility, and a strong understanding of the importance of consistent, compassionate pet care. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine. I make time each day to feed my dog, provide fresh water, take them on walks, clean up after them, and spend time playing and interacting with them. I also make sure they receive any needed grooming and monitor their health and behavior to ensure they are happy and well cared for. Caring for my dog has helped me develop consistency, responsibility, and a strong commitment to meeting an animal's daily needs. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I follow the owner's instructions to ensure the pet stays on its normal routine. I provide fresh food and water, regular walks and exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I clean up after pets, keep their living areas clean, and monitor their behavior for any signs of illness or discomfort. If medications are required, I administer them according to the owner's directions. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment while treating every pet with patience, kindness, and care.

About: I’m a caring and dependable pet sitter with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, crate routines, and keeping pets company. I’m especially patient with puppies and energetic pets, and I pay close attention to each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. I’m happy to provide regular updates and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently in school, so I have flexibility in my schedule for pet care, especially during the daytime, evenings, and weekends depending on my class schedule. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and provide consistent, reliable care rather than rushing through a visit. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow your instructions, keep doors and gates secure, stay aware of my surroundings during walks, and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I’ll maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and communicate with you if anything seems unusual. I treat every home and pet with the same respect I would want for my own.
