About: I have experience with taking care of my sister’s two dogs. Taking them on walks, giving them attention, and lots of love. I used to house sit my friend’s dogs when I was in high school I am available during the week and on the weekends, time is very negotiable but my schedule is also flexible, I just need to factor in travel on public transportation. I have a cat tree in my home for my cats, and lots of toys t bat around. The cats usually cuddle with me on the chairs, I feed and water them twice a day and pet and love them frequently

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my reliability, attention to detail, and hands-on experience working with animals. I’ve volunteered at Sean Casey Animal Rescue, where I helped care for dogs with different temperaments, energy levels, and backgrounds. That experience helped me develop a strong understanding of animal behavior and how to provide calm, patient, and compassionate care. In addition, I often take care of friends’ dogs when they travel or are away, so I’m used to maintaining routines like feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable while their owners are gone. I’m especially attentive with young pets who need structure and positive reinforcement, and I’m also comfortable caring for senior dogs who may need slower walks, extra attention, or medication reminders. I prioritize safety, consistency, and keeping pets relaxed in their environment. I also make sure pet parents stay informed by sending regular updates and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make every pet feel secure and cared for, and every owner feel confident their companion is in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible freelance schedule and currently no full-time job. This allows me to dedicate consistent time and attention to the pets I care for throughout the day. I’m able to plan my work around walks, drop-ins, feeding schedules, and playtime, making sure each pet gets reliable care and attention. Because of this flexibility, I’m also available for morning, midday, evening, and weekend visits when needed. My routine allows me to be dependable, responsive to pet parents, and fully focused on providing safe, attentive care for every pet. I provide attentive, reliable care that keeps pets comfortable and safe in their usual environment. In a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, taking dogs on walks, cleaning up after them, and making sure they get plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection. I also monitor their behavior and well-being to ensure they are happy and healthy while you’re away. For drop-ins or walks, I make sure pets get the physical activity and attention they need, along with bathroom breaks and any specific care instructions you provide. I respect your home, keep things clean, and send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is doing well. My goal is to make pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free while giving owners peace of mind.
“Charlie has been amazing with my dog Oliver. He walks him during the day and is always reliable, attentive, and caring. I can tell Oliver genuinely enjoys his time with him, which gives me peace of mind while I’m busy. It’s not easy trusting someone with your dog, but Charlie makes it effortless. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and kind dog walker.”

“First time arranging a sitter for my cat and I was nervous, but I got Christy and she has been amazing and lovely. Cats can be cats and I worried if my girl got overstimulated and took a “stop petting me now” swipe a sitter would be upset, but Christy gets cats! I got updates and photos every visit and she made sure I knew my kitty was doing well. It was such a relief that she genuinely likes my cat! Will definitely be using Christy again!”

“Sally was amazing! This is the first time working with Rover and was very worried to let anyone into my home. Sally was respectful and responsible. I would definitely book with her again and I highly recommend her.”

“Jasmine was such an energetic and patient sitter! I needed to find a sitter last minute for a weekend getaway and Jasmine was prepared to be flexible as well as thorough. Luna 🌑 is a shy kitty and he needs lots of patience and good energy, which Jasmine easily demonstrated early on! I also appreciated how communicative she was and how understanding she came off. Luna and I are so grateful for your love and care! 🩶”

“Jessica is wonderful. She came prepared to our meet and greet with questions and notes and she always responds quickly when you send her a message. She followed all feeding and medication instructions. My kitty was in great hands and was so calm when I came home. Will definitely use her services again in the future.”

About: Hello! We are RuthAnn and Brandon, a husband and wife duo of lifelong dog lovers. We know that your dog isn’t just a pet… they are FAMILY! That’s why when your pup stays with us they aren’t just “guest dogs” they become a part of our family too. Plus there’s two of us so this means TWICE the love and attention of a regular sitter :) A little bit about us: We are the proud “aunt and uncle” to our family dogs, West and Sadie. We’ve added them to our profile so you can get to know more about them there. While they don’t live with us they visit us often and they are very friendly, so if they happen to be over during your pups stay, that just means more friends to play with! I am currently a nursing student in my last semester and my husband works in sales! So one of the biggest perks of booking with us is that our schedules are flexible. At least one of us is always home. So your pup will have constant companionship, potty breaks and plenty of belly rubs thought the day. We also have a large fully fenced yard that’s perfect for zoomies or a game of fetch! We want you to have total peace of mind when you book with us, so we offer meet and greets prior to booking, as well as regular updates, photos and videos of all the fun your dog is having. We can’t wait to meet your furry best friend! Seamlessly because we are home based and flexible. Between the two of us, your dog will have constant supervision and a routine tailored to their needs! We live in a fully fenced home so your pup has full access to a safe fenced yard for supervised play of course. Because Brandon and I are home, your pup gets a perfect balance of activity and rest. We follow your specific feeding and medications to a T (we know how important this is) and we love to provide plenty of belly rubs and cuddles on the couch. We keep a tidy dog proofed home and we keep fresh water available at all times!! We are a team that’s big on communication so you’ll receive daily updates with photos and videos so you can see exactly what your baby is up to. If your dog enjoys company, we love to facilitate play, if they are on the shyer more timid side and prefer one on one time, we can accommodate for that as well.

About: I have been an animal lover my entire life. They deserve to be loved in the same way they love us. Personally, I was raised with a cat and he lived till he was 21! (Insane, I know.) Volunteered in a cat shelter in my teens, actively donate to the charity A.C.T - “Animal’a Can’t Talk.” My father’s side had a variety of pets over the years. Always two dogs, two cats. Dogs have always been attracted to my playful demeanor; ironically once they’re done being nuts I provide a calming effect with them. I trust them, they trust me. I have the disney princess effect. I’ve watched all ages from puppies to 20 year old dogs - if I’m dealing with puppies, tip me well bc they CHEW 😂 I give medicine, I’m patient, studied behavior in college, I work in an emergency room. The difference being animals are nicer 😂 Open to any questions always and I am flexible with time. I also always send tons of videos and pictures. Unsure if it’s more for you or for me (they’re all so stinkin’ cute!) I work in an emergency room from 3-11, part time. I will have mornings and afternoons to assist you with care for your loved one. My schedule is flexible and I respond quickly to texts and messages. My job is to keep your pet on their schedule and keep them safe and do what is asked of me. This is YOUR pet, not mine. If I notice a particular behavior, I will certainly let you know and keep you informed about all activities. How much food I gave, send pictures of your animal. Whatever makes you feel safest having me with your animal is my main goal. And that they are loved and fed and happy!
About: Each dog is treated exactly the same. Let me know of any allergies or specific cravings your dog has or needs! This is important. I observe each dog and their habits. I care for each dog as if they were my own. I am a loving and caring individual. I care for animals more than anything. They deserved to be treated fairly. Each dog is unique in their own way and I appreciate that the most! You are to bring food and treats if needed for your dogs, but mostly remember they are in great hands! No worries. I am to make your dogs life happier! Dogs are more than pets to me. They are family. If you are interested, Inquires feel free to contact me! Thanks guys
About: I've taken care of all types of pets since I was 8. Ranging from 3 month old puppies to 15 year old seniors. Family and friends have relied on me to walk and care for their pets. I am also currently in college pursuing a career in veterinary medicine. I'm currently in college and working part-time but I will have more than enough time to truly care for and walk your pups! I will put great amount of time and energy into each walk. I have 3 dogs which I have cared for, for many years and take on extensive walks 3-4 times a day. I know how to leash-train and can deal with pulling. Dogs tend to trust me quickly because I take time to let them know I’m here to care for them. I make sure my animals and those of others feel all my love.

Utopia pet parents share their Rover experiences
Dorothy and our cat Bamboo got along great. She allowed us to enjoy our weekend away without worrying and took great care of our little guy. We will definitely be asking her to watch him the next time we go away and feel relieved to have an animal lover watch our cat .

Charlie very gracefully accommodated our last minute request to drop in on our two cats, which we really appreciate. He did an outstanding job ensuring they had food, water, and litter, and was very responsive. We loved receiving updates on the cats every day. Would book again if I have the opportunity.
