About: Hi, I have been a dog owner pretty much my entire life & have been dog/house sitting for years. I have experience with small breeds & large breeds, young & elderly. I love to play fetch with dogs & take them for nice long walks/hikes. I am a work from home mom so I have great flexibility in my schedule. I am available for overnights, check ins, walks, & can have 2 well behaved dogs in our home. I am available to bring in trash cans, water plants, bring in mail, pick up dog poop, administer medicine & care for other pets in your home. I work from home, so I have a lot of flexibility in my day to care for animals. We have plenty of space in our home and can easily accommodate 2 well behaved dogs. I have a fenced yard and live near a great regional park that I love to take dogs out on walks to. I have a teen and tween daughter who also love animals and especially like to play and cuddle with.

About: I've been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember, growing up with a lovable dog named Marley (in my profile picture). At just 10 years old, I started walking dogs around my neighborhood, and that grew into a passion for pet care. While I’ve mostly catsat over the years, I’ve also had the unique experience of snakesitting! Whether furry, scaly, or somewhere in between, I love all animals and treat every pet like my own. My schedule is currently open and will be until this upcoming school year. My other passion is working with children and i’m planning to be a substitute teacher starting this fall! I grew up with the notion “leave the place better than you found it.” I’m very aware of leaving a clients home nice and clean. I’m not afraid of picking up pet messes and i’m very good at putting things back where I found them. I pay close attention to care instructions as I believe it’s important to keep a pet on their familiar schedule.

About: I have been a pet sitter for many years starting when I was 12 where I was puppy training and house sitting twice a week for 3 years. I love animals but I am allergic to cats so I will need to know about cats before hand. My schedule is very flexible this summer so I can work whenever. I have a few trips planned this summer but other than that I am free Monday-Saturday until September. I love playing with animals taking them on walks, playing with toys and teaching them tricks if I can. I consider myself an athletic person so I mostly would spend my time taking the animal on walks if I can.

About: I have been dog sitting for years but started Rover in 2022. I started out caring for my two pugs and cat, and have been sitting for family, friends, and folks on Rover. I am currently working as a flexible overnight nursing assistant, so I have plenty of time to take care and play with your pet! The rest of the days I am here to help, so they can get all the love and attention they can get while you’re away! When I am at a client’s home I make sure fencing is secured if needed. My home has a fence as well. I also make sure they have enough place to play whether it could be inside or out. I prefer to be outside with them! I love being active with animals but if you’re pet is somewhat a couch potato OR old, I can comfort them in whatever way they feel comfortable.

About: At my youngest age, I balanced on the lines of wanting to be a veterinarian or a marine biologist. My passion for animals and other life forms on this planet fuels my love and enjoyment of spending time with the pets I have and had in the past, along with new furry friends to meet. Currently working a flexible internship with a good amount of free time. Happy to fill it walking doggos, checking in on any furry friend, and love pet sitting over night. Safe and quiet home environment with a private backyard and lots of windows to catch sun rays. Play space and plenty of toys to choose from. I am also a person who enjoys talking to animals so I will consistently talk to them!

About: Animals have always been a significant part of my life, offering a journey of continuous learning and growth. My experience spans nearly a decade in the veterinary field, where I gained invaluable expertise in caring for sick and injured pets, as well as horses, cows, goats, sheep, donkeys, and pigs. This diverse background has enriched my understanding and approach to animal care. The greatest source of joy and personal development has been my American Staffordshire mix, Kai. His unique needs led me to explore behavioral modification programs, culminating in my apprenticeship with a lead trainer. I was honored to lead off-leash pack walks for groups of 6-8 dogs, many with ongoing behavioral challenges. For 10 years, I owned and operated a dog boarding, day care, walking, and training company. This experience allowed me to provide comprehensive care and training services to a wide variety of dogs, further honing my skills and passion for animal care. Additionally, I have enjoyed pet sitting and boarding for family, friends, and neighbors over the years. Kai and I are active adventurers, frequently exploring the mountains, coast, and open road. I specialize in caring for sick pets and administering medications and treatments, and I am excited to now offer my skills in animal communication. Rover is my full time job and I dedicate myself fully to pets in my care. I care for them like they are my own. Being an animal communicator helps with this aspect in that I can ask them what they need or what’s bothering them. I have a huge variety of experiences to pull from and will ensure that your pet is cared for as if you were still home. I appreciate keeping close communication with owners/guardians especially when a pet is new to me.

About: Experienced with all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs. I provide calm, attentive care, stick to routines, and handle meds or special needs confidently. Pet care is currently my top priority at this time, allowing me to be able to focus on your pet and their specific needs every single day. In clients' homes, I follow their pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and meds as needed. I keep the space tidy and pets comfortable, safe, and stress-free.

“Alison is so wonderful! We are very thankful to have found her through Rover. She is so prompt and a joy to communicate with. My dog enjoys his time with her and loves his walks around our neighborhood.”


About: I have had dogs my entire life and have owned and operated 2 dog boarding and daycare centers. I am a retired nurse waiting for grandbabies to come along....

I am not available on weekends or major holidays and I don't provide any overnight services. I am happy to abide by whatever wishes you have for your dog(s). If you prefer them crated when I leave, I'll make sure they are comfortably crated. If you need them fed, let me know how much to feed. I'll always refill water dishes with fresh water.

On my days off, I'll be with them all day. I frequently go hiking and to the beach so if they like outings like that we'll have a blast. I live in a house with a fenced in yard that is a good size! They must be flea treated prior to staying in my home. I live with my Partner who loves animals as well so they will get double the love. And they will be loved and treated as if they were our own. If you are crate training and provide me with a crate and instructions I can help out with that too.

Anna Z.
“5 stars for Anna for dog sitting. Her kindness, compassion and love for animals is wonderful - traits passed down through her darling daughters as well. Your dog will be in the best care with Anna!”


Alexia F.
“Alexia has taken fantastic care of my 2 cats, and I can't recommend her enough! She's extremely responsible, and I trust her completely. My instructions were complicated since my cats have some special instructions, and she did every ask like a pro. I even felt comfortable enough leaving my pets with her while I was camping with zero cell service since I knew she'd be reliable. Another great aspect about Alexia is that she loves animals, so you can tell she's having a great time and animals pick up on that too. She also made sure to take pictures and send them to me, which I really really appreciated! It's a relief to know my fur babies are in good hands while I'm away, and I would definitely go back to Alexia again in the future!”
