About: I've had cats my entire life, and I currently have two cats of my own who have very different personalities and don't always get along. Because of this, I'm familiar with all kinds of temperaments and understand that every cat has different needs, boundaries, and routines. Whether your cat is playful and affectionate, shy and reserved, or prefers plenty of personal space, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I'll keep litter boxes clean, make sure fresh food and water are always available, and provide plenty of attention and affection based on your cat's individual personality. As a lifelong animal lover, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I'll treat your cat as if they were my own.
“Lauren was absolutely wonderful with Kann! Her communication was top-notch — she kept me updated throughout the entire visit and sent so many great photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was thorough and attentive, making sure Kann was fed, his litter box was cleaned, and he had plenty of playtime. It was clear she genuinely cared about his comfort and wellbeing. Kann warmed up to her right away, and I could tell he was in great hands. I would highly recommend Lauren to any pet owner and will definitely be booking with.”
About: Hey there! I'm Emma White & I'm an outgoing, goofy pet lover. Since I was little, I've had a special place in my heart for animals. I'm comfortable caring for a wide variety of animals & getting to know their individual personalities, routines, & needs. I've cared for dogs, cats, fish, frogs, lizards, turtles, guinea pigs, chickens, & goats. I love getting outside, playing, & giving pets plenty of attention. I'm no stranger to nervous or shy pets, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, & building trust at their own pace. I also have personal experience with large breeds, including English Mastiffs & Great Danes (they're secretly just big babies!). I have experience caring for pets with additional needs, including GI issues, allergies, vision or hearing impairments, & special dietary requirements. I'm comfortable following specific feeding instructions, medication schedules, & other care routines. I'm also Animal CPR certified, so I understand how to properly care for unexpected situations. I want you to feel just as comfortable as your pet does, so I provide regular updates & photos to keep you in the loop & give you peace of mind while you're away. Whether your pet needs an energetic playmate, a patient companion, or simply someone reliable to keep them happy, comfortable, & cared for, I'd love the opportunity to meet them! I have a pretty flexible schedule working from home. I’m able to make time for walks, playtime, feeding, & check-ins. I’m also happy to work around a pet’s normal routine & make sure they get the consistency & care they’re used to! I like to keep pets as close to their normal routine as possible, especially when they’re staying in their own home. Whether sticking to specific feeding times, medications, walks, or other care routines, I focus on not missing any details. During drop-ins, I make sure to provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, & companionship rather than simply checking in and leaving. For house sitting, I treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I keep things tidy, follow any household instructions, and ensure pets feel comfortable & cared for. You can expect regular updates & photos so you know your pets & home are in good hands.
About: Along with dogs and other animals, I have lived with and cared for cats my whole life. I've learned the joys that come with newborn kittens and senior cats, street rescues and purebreds. Every cat is different and I have had the amazing opportunity to meet so many of them. I can accommodate any need one might have, such as diets, medications, flea baths, assistance in moving around the house, a safe lap to cuddle on, or a safe boundary if they are not comfortable with new people.

“Jessica spent quality time loving on my dogs and quickly picked up on their individual personalities. She was flexible, punctual and highly responsive. I would recommend her to all my friends and absolutely book with Jessica again.”
“We’ve been using Rover for a few years now. My wife and I take a lot of short trips and an occasional long trip. Being able to know our cats are well cared for when we are not here means we can have peace of mind when we travel. Brian was great. Cats were in great shape when we got home. Their area was clean and the house was in good shape. Could not ask for more. We have already booked Brian to come back. Very happy. Thanks Brian!”
“Ashley did a fantastic job watching our two dogs! I felt very at ease having her over at our home. I trusted she would take care of them and be attentive to them while we were out town for a long weekend. I would definitely have her back to watch them again!”

“Melinda is totally amazing. She and her husband were so sweet, and cared for my pooch so well. He loved being in her fenced yard with the other dogs. He was so happy (and nice and tired) each day I went to pick him up, and it was clear he was not stressed in any way. The yard has plenty of shade for hot Texas days, and the home has concrete floors to help keep pets cool. They clearly take great care of their place and their pets.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - La Junta
About: I've had animals my entire life, and I currently have four dogs and two cats of my own, so I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I treat every animal as if they were part of my own family and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and care. I also volunteered at a wildlife sanctuary, where I learned the importance of patience, responsibility, and paying close attention to an animal's needs and behavior. Whether your pet loves playing, going for walks, or simply relaxing and cuddling, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. You can count on me to provide dependable care, regular updates, and lots of affection for your furry family members. I work PRN at a hospital, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to plan my availability carefully around bookings. I only accept requests that I know I can fully commit to so that every pet receives the attention and care they deserve. I also have animals of my own, but I'm not the only person caring for them, so their needs won't interfere with my ability to care for your pets. My goal is to maintain your pet's normal routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. When caring for pets in my client's home, I treat both the pet and the home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow the owner's instructions closely, keep pets on their normal routine, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they are away. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I take the time to learn their habits, boundaries, and preferences. I prioritize safety by keeping doors and gates secure, following feeding and medication instructions carefully, and providing regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind.
About: Hey, my name is Javan (rhymes with Gavin). I am currently in school for wildlife and conservation science to pursue animal welfare as a career. Since my courses are online, my schedule is generally wide open. I've taken care of animals all my life--from dogs to cats, salamanders to crabs, parakeets to parrots, and bunnies to hamsters. I have yet to meet an animal I didn't love and, more importantly, one that didn't like me! My experience involves caring for rescued pets, so I understand the importance of patience and boundaries. I have also cared for newborn, adult, and senior cats and dogs. I'm well-rehearsed in accommodating dietary restrictions and administering medication. There is no pet too big or too small, and none too needy! I pay close attention to each pet's needs and have a strong passion to make sure those needs are met. I suppose the only downside to hiring me is your pet may not want me to leave. I work part-time and do Rover part-time, so my schedule is usually open for petsitting or walking. I also attend school part-time online and will have plenty of time to engage in play with your pets! I make it a priority to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, and any other special instructions. I also understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I take the time to earn their trust and give them as much space as they need.
About: I grew up with dogs of all different sizes and breeds along with the sweetest cats. I showered them all with love and affection as well as playing and walking the dogs. I am available all day and every day! I can take care of your little or big fur babies anytime and provide the attention and care needed! I have a fenced yard with four dogs that love to run around and play in. They love to chase each other around and are quite talkative to one another!
“Was very helpful accepting my request last minute. Came here for a meet and greet and was very curious about any potential trial issues my dog may have while out on walks. Was very good at communicating when she was coming and when she arrived and even saved me when I accidentally overlooked that she was booked for ongoing walks and a payment was submitted that should not have gone through. Highly recommended from this customer. Hard to find someone willing to take on the challenges of walking a large breed Cane Corso like mine.”
“I’m working on a systematic desensitization of one of my dogs and she was so patient with her! I also accidentally sent her to the wrong address and she still came to hang out with my creatures lol”
About: 🐾 Where tails wag, paws play, and dogs enjoy their own little vacation! Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s something I genuinely love. I’ve always had a strong connection with animals and take time to understand each dog’s personality, needs, and comfort level. Dogs staying with me get plenty of attention, exercise, and enrichment. I have a yard where pups can safely run, explore, and sniff to their heart’s content. We go on walks tailored to their energy level, play fetch 🎾, practice basic training and commands, and enjoy interactive toys and mental stimulation games. On warm days, dogs can cool off in a kiddie pool or splash around with the hose 💦. My own dog is friendly, well-trained, and comfortable around other dogs, helping create a calm and positive environment. I also offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, so your pet can stay comfortable in their own home if that’s what they prefer. During visits, I make sure they’re fed, let out, played with, and given plenty of attention and care. Whether I’m boarding, walking, visiting, or house sitting, I focus on patience, consistency, and kindness so every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I offer flexible availability throughout the week! I do step out for 3–5 hours a few days per week for work, but I always make sure pets are cared for before and after. I’m available mornings, and evenings and I keep my schedule updated so your pet gets consistent attention and care 💛 In your home and mine, I stick to whatever routine your pets already know—meals, treats, potty breaks, walks, playtime, cuddles, or quiet time. I make sure they feel comfortable and loved, and I keep your home safe and clean while you’re gone. I send lots of pictures and updates so you can relax knowing your pets are happy.
About: I have had a love for dogs all my life. Last couple of years I have worked with dog rescues as a foster, that is how I found my dog.

I can normally plan my trips outside of the home. I have fenced in yard and crate for dogs that are custom to using one. I have 1 dog, foster gone wrong. I only have 1 dog so I can foster when needed.
About: I am compassionate for every animal's health and happiness. Skilled in medical administration to young and senior pets. I treat every pet like my own. I have a part time job so I am able to visit once to twice a day to care for any pet on a work day. I am freely available on non-working days. I play with them using their toys, feed them on their normal schedule, provide affection, keep their area clean on a daily basis, and maintain their physical fitness with plenty of walking activities.

About: Ever since I could remember, I have been raised in a household with multiple dogs. I was allowed to supervise them while my parents would go on vacations, which was always a blast. While working for Rover, I have gained much experience handling elderly animals, administering oral medications, and learning how to bond with even the most timid animals. I love working with dogs and cats since it is a rewarding experience. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, as I work as a Rover pet sitter and dog walker while completing my online master’s program. I have flexibility throughout the week to schedule walks, drop ins, and pet sitting visits around my coursework. I do ask for about two days notice when possible so I can plan ahead and set aside dedicated time for each pet. I’m committed to providing reliable, attentive care while balancing my school schedule. I am also very strict with frequent restroom breaks for the pets so they don't experience discomfort under my care. If needed, I can administer oral medications to both cats and dogs. In addition, I'm always careful with animals and their body language. Your pet must be feeling safe and comfortable with me, so I always encourage owners to meet with me for a meet and greet before I begin visits!
About: I have experience with horses dogs, puppies, birds and cats.
