“Anna was the perfect person to care for our girls. Puppies are hard. Two puppies are even harder but she Rocked it. I wrote instructions for her and she followed them to the ‘T’ even using our ‘command words’. She even set in the floor cuddling them during a storm to calm her fears I will definitely use her again.”
“We booked with Lindsey last minute after an unexpected change of plans. Lindsey was so accommodating, she adjusted her schedule to meet our needs! Lindsey treated our lil guy like a Prince.

“Chryl is a delightful person. Her love of animals and her patience with learning them is amazing. I know that we will very relived and reassured to leave our fur babies in her care.”
About: Hello! I’m Alyce, and animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve spent years caring for dogs, cats, and other animals through every stage of life. Growing up, I helped care for family pets, assisted with grooming, and even learned early on how important patience, routine, and observation are when caring for animals. I understand that every pet has a unique personality. Some want to play the moment you walk in, some need a little time before they’re comfortable, while others might rather being completely left alone—and that’s okay! I believe in meeting each pet where they are and following their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether your pet needs a potty break, exercise, fresh food and water, medication, or simply companionship while you’re away, I’ll provide dependable care and detailed photo updates so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. I’m not just fitting pet care into my schedule—I’ve chosen to make it part of my daily routine! I’m intentionally keeping my availability open so I can provide dependable drop-in visits & dog walks around your pet’s schedule. Building my Rover business is something I’m genuinely enthusiastic about, & I’m committed to being reliable, responsive, & flexible whenever possible. I look forward to building lasting relationships with both pets & their people! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. During every visit, I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special routines your pet relies on. I’ll also make sure doors, gates, and crates are securely closed before leaving and will send detailed updates with photos after each visit so you know exactly how your pet is doing. My goal is to help your pet feel comfortable in their own familiar environment while giving you peace of mind whenever you’re away.
About: I love cats as much as I love dogs! These sassy, low maintenance, cuddly companions are a favorite among my family. I’m happy to care for your cat as much as I am happy to care for your dog.
About: I was a kennel worker for 2 years, providing daily care for dogs of various temperaments. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning and sanitizing kennels, supervising playtime, administering medications as directed, and monitoring health and behavior. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy. I make time each day for walks, feedings, and plenty of attention to ensure every pet feels safe and happy. I care for pets as if they are my own. I follow their usual routine closely and send regular updates to stay connected with owners while they are away.
“Hannah was so great with my recent rescue Hank! He's still getting used to new people but she was patient and got him playing no problem. Communication was awesome and the pictures were so cute! Very happy with our experience and will definitely work with her again.”
About: I’ve shared my life with cats for years — currently with my 10-year-old cat, Lux, who has taught me everything about patience, body language, and earning a cat’s trust. I understand that every cat is unique: some want constant attention and playtime, while others just need quiet companionship and a gentle hand. I’m experienced with everything from shy or independent cats to affectionate lap warmers. I know how to handle routines, feeding schedules, litter maintenance, and giving medication if needed. Most importantly, I take the time to make each cat feel safe and loved in their own space — with plenty of chin scratches, playtime, and peaceful company while you’re away.
About: All of my cats are well provided for and taken care of. The four of them have 2 litter boxes that hook into the plumbing that only need to be looked after once a year. I am well versed in those systems if you have them but can also do the old school scoop and dump if that’s what you’re asking for. ❤️
“Haley did a great job looking after my 3 pups. She came 3 times per day to feed them and let them out. She also played ball with them to give them some exercise. I do appreciate her help and would book her again in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of cats for 4 years now. I just recently got a baby kitten a month ago. I have family and friends who rely on me at times to feed their furbabies and also play with them.I absolutely love baby kitties and their different personalities.
About: I’ve had all sorts of animals growing up and to this day. I’ve always been responsible when it comes to caring for dogs and animals of all sorts. I’m compassionate and genuinely love being around them as well as caring for them. I’m currently a stay at home mom so I’m available all days and hours to meet every pups wants and special needs!

About: I’ve grown to love the company of animals over people most days lol. I’m a doggy mom to a big Pitt/Hound 8 month old puppy named Cocoa & he’s about 75lbs already! I’m also a mom of 4 so I’m pretty good at multitasking. Im a chef & I also own a small cleaning business & have often times been entrusted with the tasks of pet sitting, feeding, walking & bathing of their fur babies while on jobs or just as help on days outside of cleaning jobs. I have healthy recipes for animal treats & love to watch them gobble them down once permission is granted by mom or dad of course. Animals tend to gravitate towards me & I absolutely adore the good feels I get from their pure energy & love. I would be more than happy to meet your new fur babies & take part in spoiling them a little. Im an entrepreneur so my schedule is pretty flexible outside of my kids… I usually only need a days notice of a needed appointment for smoothie sailing on both sides but I’m definitely open to being on call of sorts if ever needed in an emergency situation. I can make accommodations for pet sitting during the day or over night whenever needed but only in the clients home as my home as small kids present always. I have no issue with crating your fur babies if needed. I’m knowledgeable on how to harness a dog & I know how to restrain them if transportation is ever required. I’ll care for your pets just as I would my own, with love & kindness.
About: I have have been caring of all types of animals since I was 7+ years old. I have taken care of new born puppies, kittens, raccoons and reptiles of all types throughout my life and I love it!! If I could cuddle a gator I would!!! I have also done whelping services for many family members. I have done a lot of fostering and bottle feeding both puppies and kittens. I’m currently working only for Rover. So I can dedicate all my time to your fur baby and his/her needs and the loving care and schedule you want for them. However I am instructed to. I am there to make you and your pet comfortable while away. It can be stressful for pet and pet parents when they are not together. I try to keep your pets schedule as similar to what they are used to with you. Feeding/ walking/ playing/ sleeping/ waking up will all be as close to their normal schedule as possible. Their comfort is my first priority.
About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my entire life and they’ve always been at the center of my world. My most recent pup, Effy, was with me for 15 years — she was truly the love of my life. While I’m not quite ready to have a dog of my own again, I couldn’t imagine my life without them, which is why I’m so excited to be here on Rover! Your pet will be loved and cared for like my own. I can’t wait to meet them I work from home Monday–Friday, so your pet will have my full attention throughout the day — no long stretches alone. I am able to work remotely so care during the day is no issue. I live in an apartment in Meraux above my dad’s office, so while there’s no yard, we have plenty of space to get outside for walks. There are stairs, but I’m happy to carry pets up and down as needed.
About: I’ve always had dogs and cats, the occasional hamster, growing up. I love animals! I’m from the south and have come across all types of puppies (including gator pups) I have no problems in gaining new friends :) I am currently free lancing in artistic endeavors and having a friendly pet would help with the time I’m at home needing a little company and a less… talkative version than human conversation! I love animals and have experience with all types! (I’m from Louisiana so I mean ALL types) including the senior doggies ;) I have a closed in front patio with a little nature-esque ground for quick potty breaks and just to sunbathe when the need arises. I take walks often and live in a neighbor hood away from a busy strip so I can keep pets safe and exercised!
“Ayanna did a house sit with Lamborghini over the holidays and left the house looking great. She had a bit of a tough case with my anxious cat but she worked hard to keep Lamborghini as comfortable as possible and on her routines. I appreciate her care.”

“Amber was truly the best person to leave my sweet puppy with for the day! She kept me updated through text with pictures and videos throughout his entire stay, she invited me in when we arrived to give me the assurance of knowing where he would be for the day. Her home was very clean, tidy, and she was inviting to make me more comfortable. My anxiety about leaving him for the day was immediately relieved. Do not hesitate to let her care for your pets!!”

About: I’ve had my family dog, Princess, a Pomeranian-Papillon mix, since I was four years old. I was the one who named her, and she’s been my best friend ever since. I’ve cared for her through every stage of her life, from a playful puppy to now as a senior dog, so I understand that pets have different needs as they get older. Senior pets have a special place in my heart, and I’m always happy to give them the extra patience and love they deserve. I’m a college student home for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I usually only take one family’s pet(s) at a time (unless otherwise arranged), so they’ll get lots of one-on-one care and won’t have to compete for attention. I’ll stick to your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, and I ask that owners provide their pet’s food, medications (if needed), favorite toys, and any other essentials. If I’m caring for a cat, I’ll also need their litter box, litter, and other supplies. Communication is really important to me. I’ll send plenty of pictures and updates, and if you’re missing your pet, I’m even happy to FaceTime so you can check in. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable while you’re apart. I’m currently a college student home for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pet. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they get lots of attention throughout the day. I usually only care for one family’s pet(s) at a time (unless otherwise arranged), so I can focus on giving them the care and attention they deserve while sticking to their normal routine as closely as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and I share my home with my senior dog, Princess. She’s older, independent, and usually keeps to herself, but I’ll always make thoughtful introductions and make sure everyone is comfortable. I only accept one family’s pet(s) at a time (unless otherwise arranged), so I can give them my full attention and closely monitor their interactions. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, medications, potty breaks, and any special instructions. I’ll keep your home tidy if I’m caring for your pet there, and I’ll always make sure water is fresh, the environment is clean, and your pet feels safe and comfortable.

“We had an excellent experience with our Rover sitter and couldn’t be more grateful for the care our dog received. Being over 1,000 miles away from home, peace of mind was incredibly important to us, and they absolutely delivered. From the start, communication was consistent and thoughtful. We received regular updates, photos, and little notes that reassured us our dog was not only well cared for, but genuinely happy and comfortable. It made a huge difference knowing everything back home was running smoothly. Our dog clearly bonded well with them, and it was obvious they treated her like their own. When we returned, she was relaxed, healthy, and in great spirits—which says everything. If you’re looking for someone dependable, attentive, and kind, we would highly recommend them without hesitation. We’ll definitely be booking again.”
“I’m so glad I found Sandy! I was hesitant about taking my dog to daycare because she can be very reactive when meeting new dogs. Sandy immediately put us at ease. She obviously has a lot of experience with animals and their behavior. My dog loves going to daycare and has even become less reactive on walks and in the car.”

“We have been taking our puppy to daycare with Sawsan nearly every week for the past three months, and he is so happy there. Unlike many sitters, Sawsan operates as a full time business and gives all of her focus and attention to the dogs. We are so sad to have moved from the neighborhood, and are yet to find anyone even close to this level of care!”

“I was nervous to leave my quirky dogs with a stranger, but Tyler quickly put my pets and me at ease. He took the dogs on a walk early on, to make them feel at home. He has a large, secure backyard, that the dogs loved. He let the pets be part of his day and provided good feedback about the pups. Thanks Tyler!”
About: I’ve been very hands on with dogs for years, including raising and caring for my own pitbull, so I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes especially larger, high energy dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and good at reading a dog’s personality and body language. I can also help reinforce basic habits like potty routines, leash manners, and calm behavior for younger dogs. I treat pets like they’re my own and focus on making them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for instead of just “watching” them. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and adjust to what they need, whether that’s extra playtime, reassurance, structure, or space. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they always know how their pet is doing. I plan my days around feeding times, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and making sure pets get plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m consistent with routines and make sure pets are supervised and comfortable. I provide a calm, safe, and stress-free environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I have a fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and always supervise pets during walks, playtime, and interactions with other dogs. I also have a smart camera in my home so I can keep an eye on pets if I step out briefly. For added safety and comfort, pets can be kenneled if needed or preferred by the owner.
“Kristin was so amazing!!! She treated my babies as if they were her own, and for that, I appreciate her! I will definitely be a repeat customer! Thank you and I highly recommend!!”
About: Patience and empathy are a major part of my approach to animals in general. I have realized that these beautiful creatures respond well to me because my love does not come with any strings. I have a Jack Russell Terrier named Kameha and a cat named Sushi. They are my world. Sushi's mother was a stray cat and not in good shape. I helped her heal and she ended having Sushi and several other kittens. Kameha was rescued from a bad home and she had worms as a puppy. Now she is full of life. My values include but are not limited to: safety, integrity, responsibility, respect, and dependability. I am entrepreneur and full time father and I am looking for supplemental income. Thank you for your time and consideration.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have years of experience caring for animals of all kinds. Growing up with horses taught me responsibility, patience, attention to detail, and how to confidently care for animals with different personalities and needs.

I’m also a proud dog owner to my dachshund, Pockets, who I absolutely adore as well as my two horses Jessie and Seven and my three miniature ponies, Lloyd, Peaches, and Peanut.

“Leda helped us out with a last minute request for walking services for our 12-year-old Lab while we were on vacation. She was great to work with! She always answered my Rover messages right away, did a meet and greet with us, and provided timely communication while we were gone. She used Rover to track her walks and sent pictures, so we always knew what happened each day. My husband and I are pretty anxious dog parents and felt like we had really great care with Leda.”
About: I have a love for all animals, as a child growing up I have always wanted to be a Veterinarian Assistant. I began doing foster care for dogs in 2020 after doing this for a while I felt a much greater need to help even more. I began my own dog rescue in 2020. I walk, play, love and care for each animal. I have rescued and rehomed several dogs to safe and loving homes. I treat them as if they were my own. The unbreakable bond between pets and their people is something that will forever warm my heart! I’m currently working part time. I’m available after work and on my off days. Just message me and we can make things work! I’m more than happy to help! I have three fur-babies of my own and they love to run around and play outside, there is 7-acres of land, and the best part is not by any main roads, it’s private. I also walk my dogs or let them play inside with some toys. Depending on your pet and your instructions for your pet, I’ll make sure that your pet and you as well feel comfortable with things. If it’s a client’s home then whatever instructions are given I’ll make sure to go by!

I am new to this site. Be my first client 💜🐶 I am currently able to sit at your home which is less stressful for your fur babies. I work full time as an elementary teacher and otherwise will be available. A typical day is arriving to work at 7am and home by 4. Mid day visits can be possible with some prior notice depending on location Our pets are part of our family and are treated as such. Animals bring such a sense of purpose to our life. I will treat your pets the same as I treat my own.
About: I treat every pet like my own, offering loving, reliable care with attention, comfort, playtime, and patience so your pet feels safe, happy and at ease at all times. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly schedule. I’m available most weekdays for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. I am in the wedding industry and specialize in bridal makeup. My weekdays are pretty much my free time. On the weekends, I’m Available before & after my bridal parties are finished to stop in & check on your pet, stay over night if needed. Luckily, I have a flexible schedule! Although I do not have a fenced in yard, if given the say so, I have dog parks around me. I also have a 4 1/2 lb Pomeranian who I take to the dog parks as well to get all her zoomies out.
About: I love animals and have had pets since I was a little girl! I have a mini golden doodle and a border collie mix now. They are my best friends. I’d love to meet and hang out with your pets and love on them like their my own!🐶 I work 2-3 days a week. But only for 5-6 hours a day. I can be free from work if needed to watch your pet! I have a fenced in yard and have a back yard to let your dogs run free. I have plenty of toys to play with and lots of love to give! I also have a walking trail close by that I take my dogs on regularly. I have a doggy door that your dogs can go in and out as well.
About: I grew up on a farm, had lots of dogs, cats, and all sorts of other animals to care for. As an adult, I’ve had quite a few cats, and I’m the current owner of three small dogs. I am currently working from home. Travel once a month. So I have plenty of time to check on the babies, play with them outside, and give them occasional treats. I have a fenced in yard that is designed for small dogs, a large dog would likely jump over. But it works great for the small dogs, plenty of shade, plenty of grass. And in the house, I have an abundance of pet beds, and blankies.
About: I have 4 well taken care of cats at home right now. In my youth, I had a Pomeranian named Mufasa that was equally adored. My parents took over raising him when I left home and sent updates regularly. He has since passed away and ascended the rainbow 🌈. I am interested in taking care of other animals while in California. Since Mufasa, I have taken care of my small fleet of cats, all with their own personalities, and even two flocks of chickens over an 8 year period. I am interested in all animals and can adjust to accommodate any of their needs. ❤️ I’m currently working as an event coordinator in El Segundo. The event that I’m working is not starting for another month so I’m looking to spend time doing something that I love which is taking care of animals. I cannot host right now, as I am living in apartments that are too small to accommodate other animals, but I treat others environment as I would my own. With respect.
About: Animals have always been part of my daily life — I currently share my home with a sweet 10-year-old cat and a 5-month-old terrier puppy, so I’m no stranger to different personalities or energy levels! Training my own puppy from the start taught me patience, structure, and how to keep even the most playful pets focused and happy. I also have a close relationship with a licensed veterinarian whom I can consult at any time. While I’m not a medical professional myself, this connection gives me added confidence in handling emergency situations calmly and responsibly. I treat every cat and dog like family, making sure they feel loved, secure, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet needs calm companionship, structured puppy play, or just someone who understands both meows and woofs, I’ve got it covered. Your pets will get personalized attention, plenty of affection, and the same love and consistency they’re used to at home. Hi there! Currently working part time while I study for my courses and exams for cybersecurity. I’m a smart, quick thinking guy with a big heart - especially when it comes to animals! I will be sure to follow any and all safety guidelines you provid. Your pet’s safety and security is my number one priority, and they’re in excellent hands!
About: I’ve taken care of animals all of my life I’m good at bathing them and following feeding instructions! I love dogs the most and I get along with all of them! I am currently enrolled at Pearl River Community College so pet sitting on weekends or over night works best right now! I love dogs the most and I understand their body language well! I follow to do lists very well. I understand dogs social ques when they are uncomfortable or stressed or when they want outside. I’m good at making sure they are comfortable and I don’t push myself onto them. My family has a lot of dogs so I understand them very well!

My goal is to make pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I work a consistent schedule and have a reliable routine, which helps me provide dependable care.

About: I’ve grown to love the company of animals over people most days lol. I’m a doggy mom to a big Pitt/Hound 8 month old puppy named Cocoa & he’s about 75lbs already! I’m also a mom of 4 so I’m pretty good at multitasking. Im a chef & I also own a small cleaning business & have often times been entrusted with the tasks of pet sitting, feeding, walking & bathing of their fur babies while on jobs or just as help on days outside of cleaning jobs. I have healthy recipes for animal treats & love to watch them gobble them down once permission is granted by mom or dad of course. Animals tend to gravitate towards me & I absolutely adore the good feels I get from their pure energy & love. I would be more than happy to meet your new fur babies & take part in spoiling them a little. Im an entrepreneur so my schedule is pretty flexible outside of my kids… I usually only need a days notice of a needed appointment for smoothie sailing on both sides but I’m definitely open to being on call of sorts if ever needed in an emergency situation. I can make accommodations for pet sitting during the day or over night whenever needed but only in the clients home as my home as small kids present always. I have no issue with crating your fur babies if needed. I’m knowledgeable on how to harness a dog & I know how to restrain them if transportation is ever required. I’ll care for your pets just as I would my own, with love & kindness.

About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my entire life and they’ve always been at the center of my world. My most recent pup, Effy, was with me for 15 years — she was truly the love of my life. While I’m not quite ready to have a dog of my own again, I couldn’t imagine my life without them, which is why I’m so excited to be here on Rover! Your pet will be loved and cared for like my own. I can’t wait to meet them I work from home Monday–Friday, so your pet will have my full attention throughout the day — no long stretches alone.

There are stairs, but I’m happy to carry pets up and down as needed.
“Ayanna was such a wonderful person to have walk our dogs while my mom was away. One of our dogs takes a little time to warm up to people but after a day when she realized Ayanna was there to help her, she gladly joined her sister in their daily walks. It was great knowing they were in good hands! Thanks you, Ayanna!”

She was really communicative and drop off and pick up was smooth. We live in the city with not a lot of room in our backyard so our dog got lots of playtime in their big backyard! Would definitely book again :)”

About: I’ve been very hands on with dogs for years, including raising and caring for my own pitbull, so I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes especially larger, high energy dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and good at reading a dog’s personality and body language. I can also help reinforce basic habits like potty routines, leash manners, and calm behavior for younger dogs. I treat pets like they’re my own and focus on making them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for instead of just “watching” them. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and adjust to what they need, whether that’s extra playtime, reassurance, structure, or space. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they always know how their pet is doing. I plan my days around feeding times, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and making sure pets get plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m consistent with routines and make sure pets are supervised and comfortable. I provide a calm, safe, and stress-free environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I have a fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and always supervise pets during walks, playtime, and interactions with other dogs. I also have a smart camera in my home so I can keep an eye on pets if I step out briefly. For added safety and comfort, pets can be kenneled if needed or preferred by the owner.
