About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and breeds, and in 2023, I completed a puppy training course to stay up to date on the best training methods. I currently have a mini Goldendoodle, Nova, who loves making new dog friends, going on walks, playing ball, and soaking up all the cuddles he can get. While I’m new to Rover, I have plenty of hands-on experience dog sitting for family and friends. Whether your pup loves to play or just needs a cozy lap to curl up in, I’d love to give them the care and attention they deserve while you’re away! I’m available to walk or hang out with dogs most of the day. I am a stay at home mom of a mini golden doodle and baby. I only leave for errands or out for walks/hikes, but then the dogs come. There’s plenty of time to add another furry friend to the mix. I can let out for potty breaks. Take for morning, midday, evening walks/hikes/runs or just hangout for cuddles. I have a fenced yard and a little golden doodle to keep your pet company. I enjoy non busy area walks, and if I need to leave it’s easy to crate your pup if preferred.

About: I have 6+ years of experience house-sitting and taking care of people's pets of all ages and breeds. Taking care of an animal and making them feel loved are two different things... I make sure to do both. I work remotely as a virtual assistant and content creator so my schedule is very flexible. I have two cats of my own that I get to spend all my time with. Whether it's just a drop-in or a walk, I provide you, your animal, and your home with respect, trust, and transparency. I can follow your lead and instructions while providing love to your furry friends.

About: A lifelong animal lover, I will love your pets just like you do! I can drop by your place for a doggie visit, so your dogs can be let outside mid-day, and I can take them out for a good long walk, let them sniff around, handle their business, burn a few calories. I can give snacks, or feed as instructed, even brush or snuggle with dogs and with kitties too, in your home or mine! I even pick up poop and clean litter boxes. ;) I volunteer with Stray Hearts and have completed Foster training, and walk dogs occasionally. I can board dogs at my place too, I'm located north of Questa in the small "town" of Cerro, close to the Wild Rivers Rio Grande del Norte National Monument. I'm flexible, schedule is usually wide open except for a few appointments or photo shoots. I retired from the Army in 2016, basically now a stay at home mom to a teenage boy, who also loves pets, and part time online student, (completing Bachelors in the next 3 months) and normally just volunteer with my church, Salvation Army, VFW Post 9516 and PTA. My family and I have 4 acres of fenced in yard, (gate will have to be closed at driveway for dogs to roam freely) but I have a small front courtyard which I can keep small dogs inside, with artificial grass for them to potty on and an extra large crate to use when they're ready to nap indoors. My family and I have a new baby puppy- Chocolate Lab named Bella, a super friendly 4-year old yellow lab named Gracie who just loves to play, and one 9-yr old tabby cat who is happy minding his own business: sleeping.

About: I have a wide range of experience caring for pets and homes- from off grid homes with dogs and goats to cats in the middle of the city. I am a professionally trained intuitive animal communicator, and I love bonding and supporting your furry loved ones! I work for myself, so my schedule can be pretty flexible! I can usually work with you depending on what you need, and I’m especially available in the late mornings and weekends. I treat any home I am in like a sanctuary, and I’m fabulous at tending to your pets needs and making them feel at ease with me.


“Great first meet-and-greet with Caitlin! She is very friendly and is a very capable and loving dog-person, even with challenging dogs. We are looking forward to having her walk and stay with our dogs again soon.”


About: I'm an animal communicator and energy healer, so if your animals are in need of communicating anything to you I can relay that information. I've been around all types of animals my whole life and have always had a special way of communicating with them. I have a very calming energy that is very healing for the animals I care for. I’ve taken care of dogs and have been a pet sitter for over 20 years now. I'm a go to sitter for my friends, family, co-workers as well as their friends, family and co-workers. I’m very attentive to the animals needs and wants and can pick up on things intuitively that your pets are going through or experiencing. I treat every animal I care for as if they are my own and take the responsibility of caring for animals very seriously. I also will get down and play with them and interact with them on a soul to soul level. I understand that your pets are part of your family and I treat them as such. I often get told I take care of people’s animals better than they do. I have a deep love for animals and I always share that love with the animals I care for. I'm well-versed in administrating medication, dog walking and grooming. I had a job as a pet groomer, so if your animal needs a bath and brush during our time together- you can add that to our time together. Please note, I don't do nail trims or coat trims- only bath and brush. I also have a special skill set of working with breeds that are picky eaters and have digestive issues such as Shih Tzus. My schedule is flexible as I currently work remotely so I have time to spend with your pet and show them the attention they need. I’m also an introvert and empath so I don’t spend long hours away from the pets I care for. I’d rather be playing or hanging out with animals any day of the week. I'm available for overnight pet sits, check ins as well as dog walking. I take care of pets in client’s home with the utmost respect and care as possible. I take responsibility of the pet and home as if they were my own. If there are instructions left for the pet I will follow them to a ‘T.’ I also have the ability to intuitively pick up on the pets cues of being anxious, uncomfortable, happy, sad and any emotion in between. I'm very attentive on dog walks, always scanning the area for cars, other dogs, stray dogs, and people. Your dogs safety is my highest priority.

About: Hey everyone! I am Izzi! I am a remote personal assistant & because of this I have lots of flexible hours. Apart from loads of childcare experience & nannying for many families with pets ranging from dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, I also frequently house sit & pet sit in the area Philly suburb area! I am super easy going & very flexible, I love all animals & being outside in nature. I grew up with two HUGE amazing & cuddly Bernese mountain dogs. Marshall, who is still with my family, has a ton of health problems, so typically feed him special food, provide his medication & ear drops when my parents aren’t in town. They have a place in FL & the Bernese would just be too hot in that climate so can’t go down with them! I am extremely active and enjoy yoga, hiking, skiing and running! I joined Rover because I have ample free time & would love to spend it loving your furry friends! I typically have 1-2 remote meetings a day between 9:30-1pm ET. During these meetings though I can provide house sitting services. Before & after these meetings I have tons of free time. If you need super early pet care, late/overnight care, & even during the day I am mostly free! I grew up with 2 large berneses! One is still living with my parents, who split there time between PA/FL so I often take care of him. He has TONS of health issues. He gets special mix of wet and dry food w/ coconut oil each morning, daily allergy medication, & ear drops. I’ve had to administer different medications for him as well such as fever medicine. I typically roll this medication in some cheese & that’s how he gets it down! I am capable of any type of care for any animal such as feeding, walking, giving medication, taking to the vet, taking to the park etc. My roommate also has a Pitt mix & is in Vet school, so I occasionally feed & walk him for her when she is busy. He is very enthusiastic & strong so I can manage these types of dogs !

“Alison was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond for our dog Oliver who needed some minor medical attention when we were unavailable. I can’t thank her enough for helping us and taking car of our sweet Oliver.”


About: I'll walk, sit and board your dog while you're away! Whatever you need. I'm a graduate student with open availability. I can come to your place for a quick or long visit. While boarding, I'll feed and walk; watch movies; play or just lounge around. I was raised on a farm with many animals and currently have a well-behaved dog of my own. Let me know the fine details of what you prefer and I'll make sure to see it through. I live near a dog park and I travel around the outdoors and hiking places your dogs will love, too.

About: I am a lifelong lover, owner and caretaker of animals. I was raised on a ranch and was around horses, chickens, dogs, cats and more for the better part of my childhood and have owned dogs and cats ever since. While I currently do not have any pets, I have dog and cat sat for friends and family for years and understand the importance of having trustworthy, loving people take care of your fur babies! I am currently working from home for 10 hours a week and trying to get a service industry job for 3-5 days a week. While my schedule is not concrete, I will be available for drop ins, walks, and animal sitting of scheduled in advance. I have a large fenced in yard and live in a fairly remote area. I love comforting animals, playing with them, and letting them know how good of boys/girls they are and that they’re owners will be home soon.

“Had a long work day and staying in an Airbnb that’s a hard to reach location. Victoria was super flexible with everything and worked with me as I was on calls when she picked up and dropped off Harlow. He got his steps in (thanks to Fi tracker) and was exhausted for the rest of the day. Recommend!”


About: Hello! I am an active small business owner with a flexible schedule, and I am excited to help out in caring for your pup or kitty. I have lifelong experience caring for animals, and currently have a crew of 2 cats, 2 goats, and 1 rescue doggie at my beautiful 2 acres in Tres Piedras, NM. My work consists in leading local hikes with the assistance of the Nigerian Dwarf goats, "John Waters" and "David Lynch."

We take a minimum of 1 neighborhood or forest walk/hike each day with all of the animals, and we have everyone inside for dinner by dusk, followed by a final potty break before bedtime. Accommodations include the following: - Supervised unfenced outdoor activity time on our 2 acres with my own dog, Daisy - Supervised indoor time in my 1-bedroom cabin - Sleep in solar sunroom attached directly to the bedroom in my cabin, along with my own dog - Hike in neighborhood and National Forest daily

About: I have a love for all dogs big, small, young and old. For the past 2 years I have worked at a doggy daycare and boarding facility which included puppies, senior dogs, and dogs that require extra understanding. I have 2 dogs of my own and it has taught me that every single dog is different and truly understanding them isn’t something you learn in a book, you gain that knowledge by listening to them…and their humans of course! I am currently not working so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pups. Boarding, house sitting and walks can be done any day of the week. While taking care of a dog in their own home, I know it is their space and I respect that. If your pup is a little restless and wants to play or go for a long walk, 1 of my dogs still has the energy of a puppy and would love to join!

“We could not be happier with the quality and care that liz gave to our pups. Our older dog always get so stressed out when we leave him and he usually takes a few days to get back to normal. The environment and care that liz provided must have been stress free and fun. Our dogs weren't stressed when we picked them up and were actually excited to see Liz the next time we dropped them off. She has made our (and our dogs) lives easier. Now we don't stress about leaving town without them. Thanks you Liz!! We appreciate all you do.”
