About: (TWO PEOPLE USING ACCOUNT ME AND MY BF) We both been taking care of our own animals and family members since the age of 9, I love animals with a passion and I will spoil them with affection care and maybe a few treats <3 My pet care has seamlessly become an integral part of my daily routine since childhood. As a pet enthusiast, I dedicate ample time and attention to nurture and care for our furry companions. Each morning, I wake up eager to tend to their needs, starting with feeding and providing fresh water. Throughout the day, I incorporate playtime and interactive sessions to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. During midday lulls, I set aside moments to engage in bonding activities, ensuring they feel loved and cherished. Evenings are dedicated to additional play, grooming, and relaxation, allowing our pets to unwind. By creating a structured routine, I maintain consistency in their care, which in turn fosters a strong and trusting relationship with our beloved pets. Without the confines of a job, I cherish the privilege to spend quality time with our furry friends, providing them with all the care and attention they deserve. Morning: - 7:00 AM: Breakfast time with fresh water - 7:30 AM: Independent playtime with toys Midday: - 12:00 PM: Short play session or interactive toy time Afternoon: - 3:00 PM: Nap time or lounging in a sunny spot Evening: - 6:00 PM: Dinner time with fresh water - 6:30 PM: Interactive play session or grooming Night: - 9:00 PM: Evening playtime or interactive toys - 10:00 PM: Calm and relaxing environment before bedtime

About: I have been caring for my own pets for seven years, as well as helping others with their pets. I have three very well behaved dogs of my own! I really enjoy going for walks so bringing a new friend would be awesome! I am a full time student at UCC, and work part time at planet fitness on the weekends. I am almost always available in the evening. I provide my pets with the food and water they need, bathe and groom them regularly, go on walks and to the dog park and they are maintained with their vaccinations. I love animals very much so I also give them lots of love!

“Amazing,came on time sent lots of photos . Very flexible. I really appreciate the attention to detail with the directions. Would definitely rebook”

“Samantha was a quick study, efficient, kind, and was able to touch my skittish cat at first meeting! I was so worried but she took my worries away and was so happy to get her reassuring words and pic while I was away. I was also happy to learn Sam is a local which provided even more assurance and even though I live a ways out she was willing to travel to me where others I contacted all said I was out of their area. I really liked her and my kitty Jack did as well, straightforward and got the job done. Thanks Sam, you were a life saver!”

Connie D.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, litter box maintenance, playtime, administering basic medications if needed, and providing plenty of affection and companionship. I understand how important it is to keep cats comfortable in their own environment and to respect their individual boundaries and routines. I’m reliable, attentive to detail, and always prioritize your cat’s safety, happiness, and well-being while you’re away.

“Pam did a fabulous job looking after our 2 kitties. She filled out the Rover card and we got to see daily updates of both pets. She communicated thoroughly yet concisely of what occurred during her visit. 100% recommend her, and we will be booking cat sitting with her again!”

Katherine K.

About: It’s easy to assume that cats are unaffected by their family leaving them for a holiday and truthfully most probably are, BUT, let’s not assume that play time, some good chin and ear scratches isn’t 💯 expected and deserved. I’ll always leave a litter box cleaner than when I found it but I can’t guarantee that your cat will use it…because their kind of cat-esque 😆

About: I am passionate about our animal friends and hope to add more pet play to my daily life! I especially love pup time and am always excited to meet more friends. I’d love to help you and your family by offering quality, caring service to your pets. (: As a lover of animals of all kinds, I take joy in tending to, caring for, and spending quality time with your pets! I’d love to meet them and give them the care and attention they deserve! I do have a service dog that I bring with me for work/school. He is good with cats and other dogs, if you have any questions feel free to ask! (: Currently I’m going to school part time MWF. I am available in the mornings/evenings those days as well as overnight! I’d love to work around your schedule and to help make things as accessible as possible! Currently I am not offering boarding or daycare in my home. I am in a shared living space and unfortunately don’t have enough room for more furry friends at this time.

“Megan was fantastic! She took great care of our two cats and sent great pictures and updates. She was and was very respectful of our house and left the cat area cleaner than when she started. She managed our more medically complex cat, and she got our more shy cat to engage and play with her. We’d love to have her back to watch our cats again!”

Kirk H.

About: I can care for a wide variety of animals. Care will include lots of physical and mental stimulation, as well as anything else you’d like! Let me know if your animal(s) needs any additional care such as medication administration or needs to be kept separate from other animals, and I will be more than happy to accommodate your animal’s needs. There will also be an opportunity to become a private client to avoid the insane Rover fees, so you can save money and I get the full amount that you pay! (Currently, Rover takes 20% of my pay AND charges you even extra!) I do have full time school 3 days a week, so will be gone a good part of the day during those days. Dogs are required to be crated while I’m away. I will do my best to be flexible and use effective communication with all my clients. I have 2 dogs, a cattle dog and a golden retriever. I also have 2 cats at home as well. Let me know in advance if your animal(s) are reactive or aggressive to people or dogs. All dogs will have plenty of physical and mental exercise, and anything else that they need during the day. Bring toys, food, leashes, crates, and whatever else is needed at drop off.

“Thank you for checking in on my babies. Great job as usual!”

Erin grey K.

About: I have one client who has two cats, one of which needs medications administered each morning and night. I’ve also had my own cat for about 4 years now

Eric B.

About: I have grown up with dogs, raising all of them from puppies (starting at 10 weeks). I also worked for four summers at a dog daycare with dogs of all ages and breeds. At work, I learned how to perform basic grooming procedures, worked with many dietary plans and restrictions, and handled medications. I have also volunteered with shelter dogs and cats with various behaviors and needs. I currently work 4 day weeks, but I have ample free time on my days off I have included in my calendar. Let me know how I can best fit your pet’s needs. I have a dog of my own who is very timid and territorial, so I do not offer services in at my own place. However, I will treat your fur babies with the same love as my own.

“Tom has been doing a fantastic job! He deserves five stars. Will definitely use them again and again, it's great to find someone who cares for your dog , And your dog cares for him.”

George H.

“Wonderful care and communication each day!”

About: I’ve taken care of many different kinds of since I was a kid, from horses, to chickens, to just cats and dogs, I’m comfortable and confident I can provide exemplarily care to your fur babies. I have just started fall term of college. I have all my classes strictly online. I can be very flexible with my availability as long as I’m not needed for more than a few hours at once. If pet sitting, I would be willing to bring my homework to your house if you’d prefer your pet have round the clock care. If pet sitting( in clients home) I would check on your animals regularly making sure they are fed and happy. I would love to hang out with them and give them all the attention they need to put them at ease while there parents are away 💗 For dog walking, I would be willing to exercise your dog as far and frequently as you would like. I love to walk and I would love a furry partner!

About: I’ve been taking care of friends and families dogs since I was 16 years old. I have had my own dogs my whole life. My current dog is a 9 year old German Shepherd named Nala. I have had her since she was 6 weeks. My fiancé and I have had many family friends leave their puppies with us for a week or so and we potty train them! I am a full time grad student at USC (virtually) and I currently work from home part time. I am very active, I work out 5-6 days a week, therefore, long walks excite me for some cardio! I will follow ALL directions that are provided. If a dog needs to be crated, left in a specific room, bowls filled, medications provided, toys in reach, anything that is asked of me I will make sure to do it as the comfort and safety of the dog is my first and only priority. I will stop on walks to provide breaks, water, treats, etc. I will follow all direction re interaction with other animals, walking route, picture updates, etc.

About: I absolutely love dogs ! They truly are man’s best friend till the end. I have two dogs of my own , whom I love very much ! I have experience in dog sitting as well as dog walking and I am passionate about providing good care and excited to meet new pups! I fit pet care into my day/week routine because I have two dogs of my own. One is a pit bull and another is a boarder collie so to say they need care is an understatement. They have the upmost energy. I will play with them and wear them out so they get a good nights sleep. With that being said we walk, hike, run, go to the beach, play fetch , etc. as much as we can. I treat my puppies very kindly , if not they’re quite spoiled. 😉 I care very deeply about animals and I aim to help when I can !

“Danielle was amazing! Very kind and responsive. She kept me updated with pictures of our dogs throughout the day! I highly recommend booking with her”

Samantha B.

“I highly recommend. Alicia went above and beyond. She was so kind and accommodating. She provided sweet photos and important updates. It was so nice to know my dog was in such good care.”

Brittany B.

“Jackie did wonders for my puppy, Oggie! He’s still very new to my home and I was so worried about what I would do for the first few days while I’m at work. She kept Oggie occupied and happy. He came home and just wanted to sleep 🥰. She sent plenty of photos and updates on how he was doing throughout the day. I’ll be working with her in the future! Thank you so much Jackie!”

Rachel G.

“Danita is amazing and kind. She is so communicative and def treated Benny like her own beautiful doggie Anu… I cannot say enough good things about her and can confirm that she is a gem and so is Anu. I have no doubt whatsoever but that your pet would be safe with her and, just as importantly, adored!”

Jennifer W.

About: I've been taking care of animals my whole life ranging from dogs to farm animals. I've had dogs of my own for over 40 years and I love them more than most people. I'm retired so I have plenty of time to care and love your fur baby. My boxer, Rocky, loves to play and is dog friendly. He loves to play. I have a fenced in yard and a large crate if needed. Your fur babies safety is my top priority and I also have the rooms to separate any problems that may occur.

“Wow! Heather is awesome! She was able to help out with some walks on pretty short notice and went above and beyond for our pup Duke. Would highly recommend!”

Matthew B.

About: Compassionate, communicative, safety focused and respectful of my clients and their buddies of all different shapes and sizes! not to mention we live in such a beautiful part of the world and dogs just make it so much better to share with! I can be the good guy or the stern guy, all depends on the situation and the needs of your babies! I’m a merchandiser for a well known pet food company so well versed in animal nutrition. My dogs dabble in Top Dog events here and there so I’m definitely well versed in the challenges of some breeds and I’ve also been a house/animal sitter (all types of animals large and small) pretty solidly for the last few years with Trusted Housesitters. I have 5⭐️ reviews for all of my sits, repeat sits and more importantly life long friendships with my clients and their animals. Let’s just say that I have a ton of furry nieces and nephews 🤣 I’m taking the plunge with ROVER to keep active, to continue my flexible income goals and to support my stupidly expensive fishing habit. But all jokes aside this is ridiculously serious to me because it’s a nightmare when you can’t take a holiday or travel or focus on work because you don’t have the trust or faith that your pets will be cared for at the same level as you do. A few years of Veterinary Tech and Grooming work gives me a fairly mature and solid base of animal husbandry practices and procedures that is always an asset as well as SO MUCH LOVE and APPRECIATION that we get to be loved back by all the critters! Pet care encompasses every waking hour because I’m a dog mom of three! In saying that I can’t afford the perfect life of hanging out with my dogs 24/7 although I keep trying! I’m super flexible with my job. No set hours so whatever suits your pets needs/schedule works for me! Socializing, insane nature walks, or sitting at a picnic table or bench just taking it all in and reflecting, because you 💯 know that our pets are the masters of reflection and taking it all in❤️Flexibility and open mindedness makes everyone’s life better. I don’t offer my home for boarding but we do live on 10 acres of property that is full of madrone trees, creeks, challenging terrain or relaxing flat logging roads for an epic leg stretch! Every animal is different and has their own individual needs and wants so once we assess those we can create a program that will be pure stoke for your pet! I’m an outdoorsy chick who is always scouting for fish so my walks are generally planned around a watershed for the most part. One thing that I can promise you is that there’s a good chance your pet will be pretty pumped to see me again🫶 Your home=your rules🤙

“Great with my pups!”

About: Greeting, My name is Helen. I’ve recently completed my contract in the military.

It’s really not a hardship spending time with loving pups. I do have experience with pets that have special needs. I look forward to hearing from you and your fur members.

About: I have been an animal lover since I was born! I grew up on a farm that included all farm animals; mainly horses, dogs, and cats.

I have a 7 year old Golden Retriever that gets along well with other dogs, but also has a place to stay if your dog needs one-on-one attention.
