“Sujanna is an amazing person clearly cut out for the job that she does. She took amazing care of Rebel and was very communicative with Rebel’s daily activities. She sent pictures and videos detailing day’s events and best of all, Rebel was clearly so happy with her. I will not look elsewhere if I need a sitter again. Thank you so much Sujanna.”
“Irem and her husband did a wonderful job in caring for our 3 month old puppy for a few nights. Irem was in constant contact and gave timely updates of our pup’s stay. You can tell she genuinely enjoyed having our puppy at her home and took thoughtful care of him. We will absolutely be using Irem again!”
“Very positive experience with a 5 night boarding stay with Carolina's family. She's very pleasant to deal with, and she seems to be a very experienced dog owner. My dog seems to have really enjoyed his stay, playing with her Sheepadoodle. They have a very nice enclosed backyard where the dogs can plan outside. It made it very easy to go away on vacation for the week knowing our dog was in good hands. Will definitely rebook in the future and would highly recommend.”
“Fabulous interaction with Lynn from start to finish! Our pup had a great stay and we will definitely be booking with her again! Thank you for taking such good care of our little guy :)”
“My dog can be a little tough, but Britany took good care of her! She and Her family made sure that my anxious pup felt comfortable! I’d be happy to have my poodle stay with her again!”
“Siram and Rekha are a blessings to my family. Caliber my Golden Doddle is my whole world and the minute I met Siram and Rekha we bonded and I feel comfortable I was leaving Caliber in the best care and his 2nd home. Caliber gets along well with Milo. As long as they would have Caliber when I need a second home Siram and Rekha is my only option. Thank you both.”
“Rhea and Michael are very warm people. This was my Harleys first time away from us and he was happy and well taken care of. I recommend them to anyone is looking for a relaxing time away without worry. Rhea sent pictures and Harley looked very content!”
“We had such a great experience with Nataliya and her family. They took wonderful care of my dog and kept me updated the whole time, which I really appreciated. When my dog wasn’t feeling well, they were especially attentive and caring, and it honestly gave me so much peace of mind. You can tell they truly care and treated my baby like part of their family. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for loving, reliable care.”
“We had to leave our new dog with Morgan for a few days since we had a wedding to go to. We were worried about leaving him so soon after getting him. We were happy that he would be able to play with other dogs and when we came to pick him up we saw him having a good time outside! We would be more than happy to use Morgan again for any future needs we have.”
“So glad I found Brittany and Benji! Felt comfortable right away leaving my beloved furry friend with her ! My dog loves her and has a blast playing with her dog Benji! Communication was responsive and friendly all throughout my dog’s stay. Highly recommend!”
“This was the first time we used Rover and Jennifer. Our experience with both was great. Jennifer was so caring and Judge had a great time while there. We would definitely use her again and recommend her as well.”
“Lisa was very kind and caring with my Junie. She sent me texts and pictures and I was put at ease immediately. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”
About: I truly treat every dog like they’re my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pup with someone else, and I don’t take that lightly. Your dog won’t just be watched, they’ll be loved, included, and cared for in a calm, structured home environment. I have a sweet 2 year old Cavapoo who is extremely friendly and loves having company. She’s gentle, playful, and great at helping other dogs feel comfortable and welcome. If your pup enjoys socializing, they’ll have a built in bestie. If they prefer their space, I’m very attentive to personalities and make sure every dog feels safe and respected. I’m big on communication, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and reassurance while you’re away. I stick to your dog’s routine as closely as possible- feeding schedules, walks, crate time, and playtime. Above all, I provide a loving, dependable, and peaceful environment where your dog can relax and feel at home ! :) Pet care is already a huge part of my daily routine. I have a 2 year old Cavapoo, so my day naturally revolves around walks, playtime, and structured care. I take my dog on multiple walks throughout the day, so any pup staying with me will be included in regular exercise and outdoor time. I work my schedule around the dogs in my care to make sure they’re never left alone for long periods. I’m very consistent with feeding times, potty breaks, and activity, and I genuinely enjoy building my day around their needs. Because this is something I already prioritize every single day, adding another dog into our routine feels seamless, and they will become part of our little pack and get plenty of attention, movement, and love. I provide a calm, structured, and loving environment whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours. I follow your dog’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, and instructions, and I take multiple walks a day so your pup will get plenty of exercise and outdoor time. Safety is my top priority, and I carefully monitor interactions at all times. If needed, I can crate my dog or your dog to give them space, maintain routine, or ensure everyone feels comfortable and secure.
“Thank goodness for John. The original dog sitter canceled last minute due to unforseen circumstances, and John was able to take care of our boy without problems. He sent updates and made sure he was happy.”
“Bayan Z and her amazing family have looked after Odin a few times now and she has been amazing. Excellent communication, smooth pick up and drop off and just a delight to work with. Her and her girls are so good with Odin. I usually have awful guilt leaving my giant little guy for too long but I know he’s getting all the love and care when he’s with Bayan!”
“We had a fantastic experience with Kelvin and Monica leaving our Ace in their care 🥲. From the moment we dropped Ace off, we knew he was in great hands. Kelvin - thank you for showing us around and having Ace get comfortable with his surroundings. Thank you for providing us with regular updates, photos and the occasional video ❤️, which put our minds at ease. Ace came back happy, healthy, and well taken care of. Kelvin and Monica went above and beyond to cater to Ace's food needs and high energy. We highly recommend Kelvin and Monica to anyone looking for top-notch care for their furry family member{s}. Thank you for providing such a wonderful experience for Ace! The Santanas 🐶🐕 ❤️”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and caring for them has always been second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve also dog‑sat for friends and family giving me experience with different breeds, personalities and routines. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy and loved while you’re away. Because I work from home, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which means plenty of time for walks, play breaks, feeding and keeping an eye on your pet’s comfort. I build my work schedule around their needs so they get consistent attention and companionship instead of long stretches alone. Whether it’s a midday walk, extra snuggles or sticking to their usual routine, I’m able to give them steady, reliable care all week long. I have a quiet, calm and pet‑friendly home that’s perfect for animals who enjoy a peaceful environment. Since I don’t have any pets of my own, your dog gets my full attention and a stress‑free space with no competition for affection. I keep my home clean, safe and comfortable and I have a deck where pets can relax outside, enjoy some fresh air and soak up the sun.
“Thank you Jillian and Andrew for taking care of our 8 month old puppy overnight! It was his first time sleeping out of our apartment, and we are happy that you were so flexible and caring. We loved receiving pictures of him while we were gone!”

“This was my third time using Rover and was extremely pleased! We recently moved so we needed to find a new cat sitter. It was comforting knowing Nacho was in great care with Sarah. Since Nacho is a Covid pet, he can be skeptical with new people, but over the 3 days he quickly warmed up to her. She always answered messages quickly, took tons of photos, and wrote detailed messages about her time with Nacho. I would highly recommend Sarah, 5 stars!”
“This is the second time that we have used Andrew to drop in on our cat while we are away. Each time he has sent amazing pictures and given great updates for us so we would not worry while away. He is always quick to respond, and we know that he is going to care for Buggy just like we do. I definitely recommend booking with Andrew and know we will continue anytime we are away!”
“Joe is amazing pet sitter! He took such great care of my kitty! He sent pictures and videos of her ! He followed all the instructions to care for her! He also Loves animals! I will definitely hire him again!”
“Arabella took great care of my two cats while I was away for the long weekend! She followed all instructions and stayed a bit longer to clean up after them. She was very easy to correspond with and she sent photo updates. I would ask Arabella to watch my cats again!”
“Avital was great my Moonbelle. It was my first time leaving her and was very nervous. Avital reassured me by sending me pictures daily and updating me on her visits. They had a lot of playtime. Thank you so much! Moonbelle and I appreciated having her take care of her while I was away.”
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated cat lover who believes every cat deserves respect, patience, and care on their terms. Whether your cat wants nonstop cuddles, quiet companionship, or to pretend I don’t exist (I respect that too!), I meet them where they are.

I know how stressful it can be to leave your cat, so I provide frequent updates and photos to give you peace of mind. Your cat will be treated like one of my own—spoiled just the right amount.

“Pam was great, very timely visits and lots of updates. My kitties looked very content in their daily photos and I felt like they were in very good hands while we were away. Definitely highly recommend and will hire again!”
“I have too many adjectives to describe Colleen. She was extremely trustworthy, communicative, accommodating, caring, thoughtful, kind, responsible and prepared. I always stress when I go away and leave my girls but Colleen alleviated that feeling almost entirely. She even stayed longer than needed the first night. I am very happy with how my girls were treated and will definitely pick Colleen as my sitter next time.”
About: My very first pet was a cat, and my love and understanding of cats continues to grow with me. From spontaneous antics of kittenhood to administering medication in their senior years, I’ve seen many cats through it all and look forward to meeting many more.
“Kristen took wonderful care of my 3 cats while I was away for a long weekend! She updated me and sent photos. One of my cats needed oral medication, which was not a problem for her. I would definitely recommend her to watch over your furry family!”
“Wendy was amazing! She took excellent care of my cat, I appreciated her so much! She made sure my fur baby was happy. She sent me lots of pictures which really eased my mind and I appreciated. Definitely will use her again next time I need a cat sitter!!!”
“Aletris was wonderful with my cat Lucy. I really appreciate the care she took with her. When you have to be away from home, it makes all the difference to have a trusted caretaker for your pet.”
About: I’ve always had cats and understand how different each one can be. I’ve also cared for rescue cats, including one with injuries, so I understand the patience and attention some cats need. I’ve cared for multiple cats at once and have experience administering insulin injections for a diabetic cat, so I’m comfortable with medications, feeding routines, and litter care. I’m very attentive and make sure your cat gets real care and attention every visit. You’ll always receive updates so you know they’re safe and doing well.

“I was passing thru the area and wanted to make a brief stop to see the lilacs at the NJ Botanical Gardens. Since I read that dogs were not allowed, I needed to find a trustworthy sitter nearby. Wenxin to the rescue! She was so sweet and attentive, and my shy Havanese quickly warmed up to her. Should I ever be in the area again, I will definitely bring Cleo back!”
“Our little golden Havanese had a wonderful time with Irem and her husband! She spent the day with them on Friday, and was eager to go back the next day. She made a new friend, a beautiful golden retriever, who she enjoyed spending the day with. Irem gave her plenty of snuggle time, and she seemed perfectly content both days when we picked her up. This was our first Rover experience, and we were grateful it went so well! Thank you, Irem!”

“Milo was well cared for and loved with Christine. She sent pics and videos. We were also running late and she has no problem with it. Fantastic sitter we would definitely use again.”

About: Hi! I'm A lifelong dog lover and dedicated pet parent who understands how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your dog! I currently have two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, whom I am actively training, so I'm very comfortable with daily routines, consistency, and positive reinforcement. I also previously raised a Boxer-Catahoula Leopard Hound mix from puppyhood through his senior years, and he lived a happy life until about 16. That experience gave me hands on knowledge with energetic puppies, adult dogs and seniors who need a gentler approach. I treat every dog as if they were my own-with patience, attention, and care! I have experience with small, medium/large dogs, including puppies and seniors and I am comfortable reinforcing basic training and good leash manners. At this time, I'm excited to offer dog walking, drop-in visits, daycare and boarding Tuesday, Thursday through Sunday. Come summer time I will have 7 days per week availability. I'm currently offering discounted rates while I build up my Rover profile and reviews without cutting corners on care and attention. I am not offering doggy day care or boarding at this time until my own puppies are fully trained. My focus is 100% individualized one-one-one care for your dog in their familiar environment. You can expect a timely visit that includes safe and attentive walks, fresh water, feeding and clean-up, if needed. I can provide photo updates and a brief summary after each visit. My approach to care is calm and assertive! I understand that every dog has a unique personality and I take the time to learn what makes your dog feel safe, happy and confident. I am a caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with your dog.
About: My 10 year old and I love it when your babies enjoy a swim in the lake in the summer and/or a walk around the lake with us. Rest assured your fur babies will be happy and healthy while you are away. Our standard poodle is my daughter’s best girl. We go for walks at least once per day around the lake (1.6 miles around). Sometimes we even go more than once and we all get a good workout in! We usually care for dogs here at home, however, I am open to caring for your fur babies at your house, if you prefer! Let me know!

“Morgan was very accommodating. She took my little girl on such short notice. When she greeted me at her home I was very please to see how happy the other guest were. When I picked up Marley, she came home clean and happy. (Had a bad experience at a kennel). Her yard is here like a dog park. No wonder why my little girl was so happy! I highly recommend Morgan. I will most certainly be using her again as I travel often. ”
“Sriram & Rekha S. was super sweet and attentive to Ace. He communicated with me during the whole day. And contacted me as well once my sister picked up Ace. Will be booking with him again!”
“Great job. Attentive, friendly and flexible and kept us updated throughout with pics for a stress free morning and afternoon. Looks like the dogs also really enjoyed the outing. Highly recommended.”

About: Hi, my name is Kimmie. I am an experienced veterinary technician(almost 21yrs; although I'm currently taking a break from teching at the moment), and I am an extreme animal lover. If you’re wondering why there's not a lot of reviews in my profile it is because a lot of my clients which, I have many, & repeat clients have come from work or word of mouth & aren’t on this app. But if you wanted some more references I can definitely give you them. I have a large fenced in yard that your dogs will love playing in. There is also a-lot of places in my neighborhood that I can take them for walks. I have been working with animals for years now as mentioned, whether it be as a vet tech or pet sitting, and I absolutely love it!! I do pet sitting/ dog walking outside of Rover as previously mentioned again if you wanted more references (than the 2 reviews I have on my page here I would be happy to provide you with them). I will take great care of your animals as if they are your children, which let's face it they basically are. I can take care of any special needs or elderly dogs or cats( I just can’t board cats but can house sit or do drop in visits for them due to someone who lives upstairs from me is highly allergic), give injections,&’ and any type of medication. It's one of the pluses of being a vet tech and pet sitting, not only because I get to work more with the animals I love so much, but because I am trained to know what to do in certain situations if need be, and what behaviors to look for if god forbid something was off or going on with your pet. This hasn't happened yet and I hope that it doesn't but I am always prepared just in case. And if they need anything at all more than I can do myself , I can go to the animal hospital with them (whether that be the one you bring them too or call the doctor/owner of the practice I work for if need be ; whichever you’d prefer) to make sure they are getting the best care and love while in my care. I am open to all different breeds and ages of dogs & cats, including puppies/kittens and senior animals as well. I am always able and willing to watch other little pets such as Guinea pigs, hamsters, ferrets, and other little fur babies like those. Your pet will be in great hands if you choose to use me as their pet sitter/dog walker. I really have a passion for caring for and being around animals. It is my happy place and it is what I truly love to do! I have loved them since I was a young child and feel so lucky to be able to do what I do today and work with them. So just know that if you decide to choose me to care for your fur babies, they will be in the best hands! ♡ Right now I am taking a break from Teching. So I'm open more for pet sitting. I can house sit if it’s just for a few days on a weekend -Friday night thru Monday night sometimes Tuesdays depending on the weekend because I work every other Tuesday 3pm- about 7:30ish. There are insists where I could house sit for a whole week it would just depend on the week. Otherwise days I work I can stop by before work, depending on location during my lunch break, and after work if it’s for just drop in visits or dog walking/ cat care.. like I mentioned earlier, I do work every other Tuesday and if I’m working that Tuesday then I am off that Thursday. (I know it’s a bit confusing) but my days off I’m available to stop in or dog walk more times per day even when I have work. But aside from the Tuesdays I work, I only ever really work till 4:30-5pm. The every other Tuesday I work 3pm-7-7:30pm(ish) so I could drop in, in the morning, before work, and after work. I can explain it to you better if you reach out to me for a pet sitting/boarding job if you are confused by my schedule because as I said it is quite confusing. Any other questions you may have regarding anything please reach out to me and I try to respond asap if not right away! 😊 The only time it may take me a little bit longer to respond is if I’m at work but even then I try to respond very quickly definitely within 8hrs of getting the message which as I said would only be if I was at work. I have a nice big fenced in back yard where they are able to run around and play. I am unfortunately unable to board cats just dogs and puppies. I do not have any animals of my own right now ( unfortunately due to not being able to have them where I live but I am able to board here one pet or if it’s say two dogs same family) so it would just be your pet with me to receive all my attention and love if they were staying with me at my home. If they need help (meds for older pets or any pet with medical issues/ if they need help going upstairs to go outside not a problem either esp since there’s only 3 or 4 steps up/down into the backyard. Or if you use a crate for them for sleeping at night that’s not a problem either. Any rules you have set for your pet I will follow them. For example if you do not want them on the couch or bed then then I’d follow your guidelines or if you like them to be walked there’s plenty of places I can take them for walks on too. It’s of course whatever you prefer when it comes to anything regarding the care of your fur baby!! If I am house sitting of course same thing however you normally do things with you’re pets I will follow (ex: not allowed on couches or beds; anything at all that you prefer or do with them I will do the same)!!
About: Hi! My name is Logan, and I’m a current college student at the University of New England with a strong background in studying animal behavior. I have several years of experience pet sitting, caring for my own pets — my dog Riley and cat Nadia — and working with local animal shelters. I love animals of all sizes and understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. They’re family, and I take that responsibility seriously. You can count on me to provide loving, dependable care and to treat your pets with the same attention and compassion I give my own. I'm currently looking for a part-time job until Rover takes off, so as of now, pet care is my 100% focus. I spend every day caring for my cat Nadia and my family's dog Riley. I'm hoping that I will get to spend a good amount of my time also caring for other peoples pets :). When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while also following any feeding schedules, medication instructions, or special care requests closely. I always prioritize safety by keeping pets supervised, securing doors and gates, and maintaining a clean, calm environment. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I take the time to build trust and make them feel safe and cared for. Whether it’s an energetic dog who loves long walks or a shy cat who prefers quiet companionship, I adapt my care to meet each pet’s individual needs. My goal is to give owners peace of mind knowing their pets are being treated like family while they’re away.
About: - Have had multiple dogs since age 5 - have taken care of neighbors dogs since age 10 - Volunteered at a stables at 11 and then again at 13 - Taken care of my aunts dogs since I was 16-22 - Have been called on multiple cat sitting jobs just to play with the cat for a couple hours I am a freelance photographer, so my schedule is very random so I am available most days and can work my schedule around your schedule! My entire life I have always had an animal around, it just makes my day better! I spoil them big time and I would treat them like they were my own animal!
“I am beyond happy that I found Katherine this is the second time she watches my 3 pups. She sends me updates throughout the day. She sends me videos as well. I’m at peace knowing that my pups are in good hands. I’m moving to a different area in El Paso but I will definitely be driving to Katherine’s when I need her services. I wouldn’t leave my girls with anyone but her. Thank you Katherine Jade, Rosie and Bella love you 🩷🩷🩷”

“Alexandra is incredibly kind and gentle. She was so patient with our Lani, who’s scared of just about everything, and really respected our request to keep greetings and goodbyes calm and low-key to help prevent separation anxiety. She takes her time, used the treats for getting boots on!) And gives Lani the full walk time without rushing. We feel very comfortable with her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive walker.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and caring for them has always been second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve also dog‑sat for friends and family giving me experience with different breeds, personalities and routines. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy and loved while you’re away. Because I work from home, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which means plenty of time for walks, play breaks, feeding and keeping an eye on your pet’s comfort. I build my work schedule around their needs so they get consistent attention and companionship instead of long stretches alone. Whether it’s a midday walk, extra snuggles or sticking to their usual routine, I’m able to give them steady, reliable care all week long. I have a quiet, calm and pet‑friendly home that’s perfect for animals who enjoy a peaceful environment. Since I don’t have any pets of my own, your dog gets my full attention and a stress‑free space with no competition for affection. I keep my home clean, safe and comfortable and I have a deck where pets can relax outside, enjoy some fresh air and soak up the sun.
“Amber has been great taking care of our large but nervous rescue pup, Teddy. She is clearly knowledgeable in how to work with dogs who are not immediately trusting and more reserved. Now Teddy really enjoys his weekly walks and getting to sit with Amber for some treats. I would continue to recommend her for any of your pet care needs.”
About: Hi! I'm A lifelong dog lover and dedicated pet parent who understands how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your dog! I currently have two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, whom I am actively training, so I'm very comfortable with daily routines, consistency, and positive reinforcement. I also previously raised a Boxer-Catahoula Leopard Hound mix from puppyhood through his senior years, and he lived a happy life until about 16. That experience gave me hands on knowledge with energetic puppies, adult dogs and seniors who need a gentler approach. I treat every dog as if they were my own-with patience, attention, and care! I have experience with small, medium/large dogs, including puppies and seniors and I am comfortable reinforcing basic training and good leash manners. At this time, I'm excited to offer dog walking, drop-in visits, daycare and boarding Tuesday, Thursday through Sunday. Come summer time I will have 7 days per week availability. I'm currently offering discounted rates while I build up my Rover profile and reviews without cutting corners on care and attention. I am not offering doggy day care or boarding at this time until my own puppies are fully trained. My focus is 100% individualized one-one-one care for your dog in their familiar environment. You can expect a timely visit that includes safe and attentive walks, fresh water, feeding and clean-up, if needed. I can provide photo updates and a brief summary after each visit. My approach to care is calm and assertive! I understand that every dog has a unique personality and I take the time to learn what makes your dog feel safe, happy and confident. I am a caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with your dog.
“Morgan was great, and was willing to walk our < 3 month old puppy twice a day on VERY short notice. She was extremely nice, professional, and even sent me pictures to let me know how my pup was doing. We will definitely be using Morgan’s services again, and would recommend her to anyone looking for some help with their dog.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life, from tiny puppies to senior pets, so I understand the care, patience, and attention each stage requires. I have also worked with pet rescues and fostered several dogs while they awaited their forever homes. For years, I’ve been the go-to sitter for friends and family, caring for everything from high-energy puppies to shy rescues. I’m experienced with administering medications, crate training, leash walking, and working with anxious or energetic pets. I work at home most days during the week. I will plan my day around whether I have a special pet visitor, doggie walker, or cat visit. In my home, pets are treated like family. I provide a safe, clean, and cozy environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and walks. Pets are never left unattended for long periods, and I always follow your routines for feeding, exercise, and rest. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch or some playtime, I make sure your pet feels right at home. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and your pet’s routine. I follow your instructions carefully to keep things consistent and stress-free — from feeding schedules to favorite walking routes. I make sure pets get the attention, exercise, and affection they need, while also keeping your home tidy and secure.
“Irem, Walked my pup this week while he was recovering from neutering and she was wonderful. She took good care to keep him from over exerting himself and was patient with him.”
About: I’m available full time after leaving the corporate world lol. I’m happy to work with puppies, high energy dogs, senior dogs, and potentially up to 2 dogs (from ongoing experience lol). I’m vegan🌱 and love animals. I can’t wait to meet your best friend! ☺️ I am available full time. Please let me know with a day’s notice. I have a car of my own to get to our walking destination. I have two dogs (Peach and Willow) of my own I walk daily. Our home has a fenced in yard. We walk through our local dog park, parks, and trails (when the weather allows!)
About: Hello! My name is Corinne and caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. Whether it’s a playful puppy or senior dog, I treat every pet like they’re apart of my family. I have a combination of reliability, communication, and personalized care. You will never have to guess how your pet is doing as I provide you with updates and photos! You will always feel at ease as I give each animal the patience and love they deserve! From long walks to affection, I will always make sure your pets get the care and attention that they deserve. Every pet deserves trustworthy care and I cannot wait to care for your furry friend. I am currently in school for MRI. As of right now, I can do weekends and even weekdays depending on your schedule and routine! Starting January, my schedule will become a lot more flexible as I will have more pet sitting hours available throughout my school year. I am more than happy to work with your schedule and make any necessary adjustments to care for your pet and help make your life easier. When caring for pets in your home, I focus on keeping your pet comfortable and safe while respecting your household routines. I will follow all instructions as every pet is unique! I maintain consistency and comfort that your pets know best so that they feel secure. Safety is always a first. Doors and gates are always locked and secured while all walks are handled safely and carefully. I treat your home with the same respect I give my own by cleaning up after your pet and keeping your home neat. Communication is key for me as I will always keep you updated and contact you when needed. My goal is to give your pet loving, reliable care while giving you a peace of mind while you’re away from home.
About: I’ve had all sorts of animals from small to big since the age of 7. I currently have a German shepherd mix, and he’s been with us since March 8th of 2021, having the time of his life. I’ve had my share with senior cats/dogs, as well as being able to handle oral medication and specific routines. I‘m open and available any day of the week and usually at any time. My calendar is up to date all the way until August. I will treat your pet and your house with utmost respect and privacy, and treat your pet with the love, comfort, and care they deserve and more. They’ll always be safe in my care.
About: I truly treat every dog like they’re my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pup with someone else, and I don’t take that lightly. Your dog won’t just be watched, they’ll be loved, included, and cared for in a calm, structured home environment. I have a sweet 2 year old Cavapoo who is extremely friendly and loves having company. She’s gentle, playful, and great at helping other dogs feel comfortable and welcome. If your pup enjoys socializing, they’ll have a built in bestie. If they prefer their space, I’m very attentive to personalities and make sure every dog feels safe and respected. I’m big on communication, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and reassurance while you’re away. I stick to your dog’s routine as closely as possible- feeding schedules, walks, crate time, and playtime. Above all, I provide a loving, dependable, and peaceful environment where your dog can relax and feel at home ! :) Pet care is already a huge part of my daily routine. I have a 2 year old Cavapoo, so my day naturally revolves around walks, playtime, and structured care. I take my dog on multiple walks throughout the day, so any pup staying with me will be included in regular exercise and outdoor time. I work my schedule around the dogs in my care to make sure they’re never left alone for long periods. I’m very consistent with feeding times, potty breaks, and activity, and I genuinely enjoy building my day around their needs. Because this is something I already prioritize every single day, adding another dog into our routine feels seamless, and they will become part of our little pack and get plenty of attention, movement, and love. I provide a calm, structured, and loving environment whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours. I follow your dog’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, and instructions, and I take multiple walks a day so your pup will get plenty of exercise and outdoor time. Safety is my top priority, and I carefully monitor interactions at all times. If needed, I can crate my dog or your dog to give them space, maintain routine, or ensure everyone feels comfortable and secure.
“Excellent communication and dogs and cat were well cared for. She sent pictures of them as well. Would definitely recommend and use again. Dogs and cat seemed entirely happy with her.”
About: Hi, my name is Kimmie. I am an experienced veterinary technician(almost 21yrs; although I'm currently taking a break from teching at the moment), and I am an extreme animal lover. If you’re wondering why there's not a lot of reviews in my profile it is because a lot of my clients which, I have many, & repeat clients have come from work or word of mouth & aren’t on this app. But if you wanted some more references I can definitely give you them. I have a large fenced in yard that your dogs will love playing in. There is also a-lot of places in my neighborhood that I can take them for walks. I have been working with animals for years now as mentioned, whether it be as a vet tech or pet sitting, and I absolutely love it!! I do pet sitting/ dog walking outside of Rover as previously mentioned again if you wanted more references (than the 2 reviews I have on my page here I would be happy to provide you with them). I will take great care of your animals as if they are your children, which let's face it they basically are. I can take care of any special needs or elderly dogs or cats( I just can’t board cats but can house sit or do drop in visits for them due to someone who lives upstairs from me is highly allergic), give injections,&’ and any type of medication. It's one of the pluses of being a vet tech and pet sitting, not only because I get to work more with the animals I love so much, but because I am trained to know what to do in certain situations if need be, and what behaviors to look for if god forbid something was off or going on with your pet. This hasn't happened yet and I hope that it doesn't but I am always prepared just in case. And if they need anything at all more than I can do myself , I can go to the animal hospital with them (whether that be the one you bring them too or call the doctor/owner of the practice I work for if need be ; whichever you’d prefer) to make sure they are getting the best care and love while in my care. I am open to all different breeds and ages of dogs & cats, including puppies/kittens and senior animals as well. I am always able and willing to watch other little pets such as Guinea pigs, hamsters, ferrets, and other little fur babies like those. Your pet will be in great hands if you choose to use me as their pet sitter/dog walker. I really have a passion for caring for and being around animals. It is my happy place and it is what I truly love to do! I have loved them since I was a young child and feel so lucky to be able to do what I do today and work with them. So just know that if you decide to choose me to care for your fur babies, they will be in the best hands! ♡ Right now I am taking a break from Teching. So I'm open more for pet sitting. I can house sit if it’s just for a few days on a weekend -Friday night thru Monday night sometimes Tuesdays depending on the weekend because I work every other Tuesday 3pm- about 7:30ish. There are insists where I could house sit for a whole week it would just depend on the week. Otherwise days I work I can stop by before work, depending on location during my lunch break, and after work if it’s for just drop in visits or dog walking/ cat care.. like I mentioned earlier, I do work every other Tuesday and if I’m working that Tuesday then I am off that Thursday. (I know it’s a bit confusing) but my days off I’m available to stop in or dog walk more times per day even when I have work. But aside from the Tuesdays I work, I only ever really work till 4:30-5pm. The every other Tuesday I work 3pm-7-7:30pm(ish) so I could drop in, in the morning, before work, and after work. I can explain it to you better if you reach out to me for a pet sitting/boarding job if you are confused by my schedule because as I said it is quite confusing. Any other questions you may have regarding anything please reach out to me and I try to respond asap if not right away! 😊 The only time it may take me a little bit longer to respond is if I’m at work but even then I try to respond very quickly definitely within 8hrs of getting the message which as I said would only be if I was at work. I have a nice big fenced in back yard where they are able to run around and play. I am unfortunately unable to board cats just dogs and puppies. I do not have any animals of my own right now ( unfortunately due to not being able to have them where I live but I am able to board here one pet or if it’s say two dogs same family) so it would just be your pet with me to receive all my attention and love if they were staying with me at my home. If they need help (meds for older pets or any pet with medical issues/ if they need help going upstairs to go outside not a problem either esp since there’s only 3 or 4 steps up/down into the backyard. Or if you use a crate for them for sleeping at night that’s not a problem either. Any rules you have set for your pet I will follow them. For example if you do not want them on the couch or bed then then I’d follow your guidelines or if you like them to be walked there’s plenty of places I can take them for walks on too. It’s of course whatever you prefer when it comes to anything regarding the care of your fur baby!! If I am house sitting of course same thing however you normally do things with you’re pets I will follow (ex: not allowed on couches or beds; anything at all that you prefer or do with them I will do the same)!!

“Irem and her husband did a wonderful job in caring for our 3 month old puppy for a few nights. Irem was in constant contact and gave timely updates of our pup’s stay. You can tell she genuinely enjoyed having our puppy at her home and took thoughtful care of him. We will absolutely be using Irem again!”
“Very positive experience with a 5 night boarding stay with Carolina's family. She's very pleasant to deal with, and she seems to be a very experienced dog owner. My dog seems to have really enjoyed his stay, playing with her Sheepadoodle. They have a very nice enclosed backyard where the dogs can plan outside. It made it very easy to go away on vacation for the week knowing our dog was in good hands. Will definitely rebook in the future and would highly recommend.”
“Fabulous interaction with Lynn from start to finish! Our pup had a great stay and we will definitely be booking with her again! Thank you for taking such good care of our little guy :)”
“Siram and Rekha are a blessings to my family. Caliber my Golden Doddle is my whole world and the minute I met Siram and Rekha we bonded and I feel comfortable I was leaving Caliber in the best care and his 2nd home. Caliber gets along well with Milo. As long as they would have Caliber when I need a second home Siram and Rekha is my only option. Thank you both.”
“We had to leave our new dog with Morgan for a few days since we had a wedding to go to. We were worried about leaving him so soon after getting him. We were happy that he would be able to play with other dogs and when we came to pick him up we saw him having a good time outside! We would be more than happy to use Morgan again for any future needs we have.”
“So glad I found Brittany and Benji! Felt comfortable right away leaving my beloved furry friend with her ! My dog loves her and has a blast playing with her dog Benji! Communication was responsive and friendly all throughout my dog’s stay. Highly recommend!”
“This was the first time we used Rover and Jennifer. Our experience with both was great. Jennifer was so caring and Judge had a great time while there. We would definitely use her again and recommend her as well.”
“Lisa was very kind and caring with my Junie. She sent me texts and pictures and I was put at ease immediately. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”

“Thank goodness for John. The original dog sitter canceled last minute due to unforseen circumstances, and John was able to take care of our boy without problems. He sent updates and made sure he was happy.”
“Bayan Z and her amazing family have looked after Odin a few times now and she has been amazing. Excellent communication, smooth pick up and drop off and just a delight to work with. Her and her girls are so good with Odin. I usually have awful guilt leaving my giant little guy for too long but I know he’s getting all the love and care when he’s with Bayan!”

Kelvin - thank you for showing us around and having Ace get comfortable with his surroundings. Thank you for providing us with regular updates, photos and the occasional video ❤️, which put our minds at ease. Ace came back happy, healthy, and well taken care of. Kelvin and Monica went above and beyond to cater to Ace's food needs and high energy. We highly recommend Kelvin and Monica to anyone looking for top-notch care for their furry family member{s}.

“Jen is great! Clearly very caring and capable! We felt completely comfortable having her watch our dog, Peggy, while we were on vacation. Thanks so much, Jen, for making our vacation relaxing for us, and for Peggy!”
“Marisol and John were the best to take care of our pups! They are so sweet and caring. They have an amazing fenced backyard! Our pups ran their hearts out everyday! My dogs always try to leave in a hurry from a sitter, but this time they didn’t want to leave. Our pups love them; I think more than they love us.. lol .. Marisol and John are very attentive and have a very warm household. The entire family is awesome!”
“Tricia was an amazing sitter for our pup, Milly. She incorporated water play, activity, and snuggles for our baby. We know she had an awesome time. Tricia was very communicative and detailed in her care. We received so many pictures of Milly during her stay. Peace of mind! Thank you Tricia for being so loving to our Milly.”
“I had a great experience with John. I booked on short notice and he was very flexible with scheduling, which I really appreciated. He took excellent care of Carl while I was away and gave me real peace of mind the entire time. Communication was solid, and I received updates throughout Carl’s stay — it was clear he was being very well looked after. When I picked him up, he was calm, healthy, and completely himself, which tells you everything you need to know about the level of care he provides. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with John again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter.”
