About: Hi, I’m Debbie! I’m a lifelong animal lover and a proud cat mom. ❤️ I currently have cats of my own, so I understand how much our cats mean to us and how important it is to know they’re safe, comfortable, and cared for when we can’t be there. I’ve also cared for friends’ and family members’ cats while they’ve been away on vacation, making sure they have everything they need and, just as importantly, some love and attention while their people are gone. I’m happy to provide drop-in visits tailored to your cat’s personality and routine. Whether your kitty is playful and social, independent and prefers their space, or needs a little extra patience to warm up to someone new, I’ll take the time to make them comfortable. During a visit, I can provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, playtime, cuddles and attention (if your cat wants them!), and plenty of TLC. I’ll also keep an eye out for anything unusual and let you know how your cat is doing after each visit. I know how much peace of mind it gives you to have someone you trust looking after your pets while you’re away. I’ll care for your cats as if they were my own and make sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for until you’re home. 🐾❤️ Because cats may not need a walk—but they definitely need a little love while you’re away! 🐱💕

About: I have taken care of cats of all breeds from the age of 10. I had at minimum four cats, always, growing up. I do have experience administering medication to cats.

“We highly recommend, Kayla! We recently adopted our pup from a shelter and wanted to make sure he was in someone’s home while traveling to avoid any more trauma and she did a great job making sure he was comfortable. The second time we dropped him off he went right in! Our boy loved Kayla and we will definitely use her again. She is excellent with communication and you can tell she truly loves dogs. Thank you for providing a great environment for Arrow!”
“Tiffany was amazing!! My dog gets a little nervous when left at daycares but Tiffany made him feel right at home. The updates showed that he was relaxed and happy right away. Not only did Tiffany do a great job in taking care of him, she was also one of the most communicative daycares I've come across. You can really tell how experienced she is and how much she loves animals”

It was clear our puppy was loved and cared for like family. We are beyond grateful for her kindness, reliability, and exceptional care. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable, we highly recommend Erin and her family!”
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs and cats for most of my life. My life has been enriched by caring for kittens, puppies, adults, and seniors. I’ve given pills and eye drops to both cats and dogs. I love playing with cats and dogs and seeing them happy! It would be an honor to care for your pet. I’m the owner/operator of a new pet transportation business and have taken care of puppies during 200+ mile trips. This includes giving them water and food, cleaning them and their crate up (if they got carsick ☹️), sitting with them on breaks while they roamed the back of my SUV, and snuggles. I am excited to take care of fur babies at your home or mine! I have two cats of my own, a calico (7 yrs old) and a Siamese mix (6 yrs old), and they are amazing! 😻 I have a fenced in backyard and swimming pool (which can also be fenced off if desired by pet parent). I can feed, water, do short walks, and give medicine or eye drops (to compliant pets). I have 2 cats and am happy to provide care to cat friendly dogs at my home or I can come to yours. I’m available M-F 8-4 and for overnight stays.
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Tom and Tolley (and their sweet and kind children) provided for Rudy! From the start, communication was excellent—they kept me updated and made me feel totally at ease. They have a great backyard that gave Rudy plenty of room to play and burn off energy. It’s such a relief to know Rudy was in such good hands. Highly recommend Tom and Tolley!”

“Marisa is a wonderful caregiver for our Aubie. Great communication, very much in tune with what’s important to us and Aubie. Appreciated the updates and photos while Aubie was in her care.”
About: I have loved dogs my whole life despite not being aloud to have any growing up. My parents just didn’t have the same love for animals as I did. Any chance I got I would go to friends houses or family’s houses and give their dogs love. It was very clear what my plan was after moving out of my mom’s house. Me and my now husband moved in together and very shortly after adopted our fur baby Luna!! Almost a year later we decided to add to the family and we got our other fur baby Salem. It’s been an amazing 3 years with Luna so far and 2.5 years with Salem!! After having them occasionally getting dog sat on rover for a few years now I realized I would love to be one of the awesome sitters to make your babies feel loved just like they are at home. While I feel as if I have more experience from being around other dogs my whole life I do think it’s only right to limit my experience to the years I’ve had with my own dogs. It is definitely different than just spending time with dogs. I also have decided to start with smaller dog breeds since I am currently pregnant and have a toddler. I am a stay at home mom with plenty of time to care for your pups, even more time once my husband gets home from work everyday. Me and my toddler love getting outside for walks and would make sure to have your pup join us. I will be taking a long break from sitting once our new baby is here. I will arrange my schedule once that is happening. I’m so excited to meet new pups and help out other owners! As I mentioned before, I am a stay at home mom with an active toddler who loves going on walks. I also have 2 dogs who have an active schedule so the pet care routine is already part of my daily routine as is the walking. I can cater to your pup however I need to if they have different needs. While your pups are in my home I can provide them exercise with walks and play time with our 2 dogs. They are very active dogs and we do walks often because we do not have a closed in back yard yet. We do plan on putting up a temporary fence around our back patio. Your dogs will get the same amount of attention and care as ours. My toddler is also very gentle with dogs of all sizes and if needed for older dogs we have child gates to create separate spaces. While yes, my husband and toddler are part of the household, I will be the sole caretaker of any dogs that I sit and that will not change. If it does change, my profile will be updated to a joint profile with my husband.
“Keith and Wendy were fantastic. They took great care of our anxious dog. They took him for several walks, gave us regular updates and pictures and did everything they could to keep him comfortable.”
“We are really happy we found Deborah on Rover to care for our lovable playful girl! Deborah took great care of our Pixie girl, and reassured us with updates and pictures. Pixie had fun playing and slept very well when she came home.”
About: Hello my name is Alexis I’m 18 years old and I have 3 years of pet sitting experience. I took a break for a short period of time and now I’m wanting to get back to pet sitting because I enjoy it and I want to get back to doing something that I really enjoy doing.

“Charlie had a great time with Patricia. And he loved spending time with her doggie as well. We are so happy we found someone who could watch Charile while we went to dinner.”
“We left our dog Bentley with Lauranne for the day just so Bentley and Lauranne could get to know each other before Bentley’s 7 day stay with her. Bentley had a great time. Lauranne has a great home perfect for pets. She has a large fenced patio. I would highly recommend Lauranne as an outstanding sitter or day care.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 20 years and currently live with four of my own, so I truly understand multi-dog households, routines, and different personalities.

About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember! My family has always had multiple pets in our home at a time. I currently own a dog named Jax, and two cats named Milo and Lee! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperament. I have taken care of puppies, blind/deaf dogs, big dogs who like to take you on a walk instead 😅, cuddly and energetic labs, shy dogs who may hide, and I love them all the same! I am a nanny, so I also take my part in loving and taking care of their animals in their home or when they may travel! As a pet mom myself, I understand how big of a decision it is to search and trust for someone to look after your fur baby. That’s why I will always focus on communication and providing updates and pictures so you can feel at ease and comfortable. All animals are family, and I will treat your pet as if they were my own.

About: Hi, I’m Debbie! I’m a lifelong animal lover who truly believes dogs are family. ❤️ While I’m new to professional dog walking, I have many years of hands-on experience caring for dogs in a variety of situations. I’ve had dogs for many years, cared for my sister’s dogs, helped with the arrival of multiple litters of puppies, and have experience caring for senior dogs. I’ve also recently fostered dogs and regularly walk dogs at my local animal shelter, where I get to spend time with dogs of different personalities, ages, energy levels, and backgrounds. I especially have a soft spot for rescue dogs and love helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every dog is different. Some pups want an energetic adventure and lots of exploring, while others—including senior dogs—may need a slower pace, extra patience, or a little more TLC. I’m happy to meet your dog where they are and give them the individual attention they need. I genuinely love being outdoors, hiking, walking, and spending time in nature, so getting outside with a dog is something I truly enjoy—not just a job. My goal is for your dog to get exercise, attention, companionship, and plenty of love while you’re away. And I’m a cat lover, too! 🐱 I currently have cats of my own and would be happy to provide cat drop-in visits as well. Whether they need food, fresh water, a clean litter box, playtime, or simply some company and attention, I’m happy to help. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets like they’re part of my own family. Their safety, happiness, and comfort will always come first. ❤️🐾 My work schedule changes from week to week, so I don’t have the same days off every week. I keep my Rover calendar updated with my available days and times, so what you see on my calendar reflects my current availability. If you have a specific date in mind that isn’t showing as available, feel free to message me and I’ll see what I can do! 🐶🐱❤️ Trust means everything when someone is caring for your pets and entering your home. I don’t take that trust lightly. I’ll treat your home with respect and your pets with the same care and attention I would want for my own. Safety always comes first. I’ll follow your instructions, stay attentive to your pets, make sure doors and gates are secure, and be mindful of their individual needs and surroundings. I’ll also keep you updated so you know how your furry family members are doing while you’re away. Whether I’m taking your dog for a walk or stopping in to care for your cat, my goal is simple: keep them safe, happy, comfortable, and loved—and leave you with peace of mind. 🐶🐱❤️
“Amanda communicates to me with our dog’s behavior and makes me feel confident that our dog is happy. Would recommend her to anyone needing care for any dog big or small, young or mature.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have always loved taking care of animals. I have experience with dog and cat sitting, as well as some experience with dog training. I currently have two Border Collies and a Border Collie/Australian Shepherd mix, so I’m very comfortable with high-energy dogs and keeping them active and entertained. I know every pet is different, and I’ll make sure your pet gets the same care, attention, and love I’d give my own. 🐾 I currently work part-time at a local restaurant, but my schedule is pretty flexible, so I can easily work around pet care. I’m also taking college classes online, which gives me the flexibility to be available wherever I am. This makes it easy for me to give your pet plenty of time and attention! I take the safety and well-being of my own pets very seriously, and I would give your pet that same level of care. I’ll make sure they are safe, comfortable, and properly cared for while they’re with me, treating them with the same responsibility and attention I would give my own pets.
About: Growing up, we always had multiple dogs that were my responsibility to care for, and I loved every moment of it! I have spent the last several years helping my family and friends with watching, caring for, and walking their dogs when need - I'm the go-to person for them because they know their fury friends are in good hands with me! I have two cats of my own (one male and one female - both spayed/neutered), but I do not have any dogs of my own. I work full time - typically Monday-Friday away from home from 8:30amuntil between 3-5:30pm. Occasionally I work a few hours on a Saturday or Sunday, but this is the typical. If your home is near my work, I usually am available to do walks or check-ins on my lunchbreak. I have a small, non-fenced, yard that works well for quick outside potty breaks but live in an area that is good for dog walks. I have a decent sized home, so any size dog would feel comfortable playing inside. All pets are welcome on the couch - especially for cuddle time - and I have a spare bedroom where they would be welcome in the bed. I have space to hold dog crates if your dog is more comfortable in their own space for sleep.

About: I have had animals my whole life, from dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, iguanas, and rabbits. I have lived with them, fed them and kept them clean. I am currently only working part time so I have tons of time to help these animals have some fun while their parents are away! I have a very large yard and live nearby to parks. I have a crate if needed and will be willing to accommodate whatever is needed.
