About: With years of experience in private and public pet boarding, I strive to uphold YOUR standard of love and care for your furry family member(s) while you’re away. While working part time at a daycare, coming home to care for my furry family members is a full time job. Although no two pets are the exact same in their care, I can assist in helping them stick to their regular routines while you’re away. Caring for pets in a clients home will be done in the same manner as they care for them while they are home. I intend to maintain regular boundaries and be consistent with rules that have already been implemented.
About: I have been taking care of animals of all kinds for 7 years now. Starting with volunteering at Front Street Animal shelter, to pet sitting for family and friends, to finally getting a dog of my own-a Maltese named Heera. I am skilled in handling small dogs, and various behaviors such as leash pulling, resource guarding, aggression of varying degrees, and biting. I also have successfully potty trained numerous dogs! I know that your pet is an important part of your family, and with me, they'll be treated as such! I'm looking forward to meeting you and your beloved companion 🐾 I am currently on summer vacation from college, in which I am a full time student, so I can give your pet my full attention for the entire day! All of the doors remain locked unless actively being used, and any dangerous items such as cleaning materials are kept in safe locations out of reach of pets. The home is extremely dog friendly, with beds in almost every room, water and food areas on both floors, and a doggy door with access to the backyard when the door is opened. The neighborhood is quiet and has access to a park and a walking trail, both at a 5 minute walking distance.
“I'm so happy to have found Samantha to walk my dog while I'm at work. She responded to my initial request almost immediately and has been very responsive ever since. I needed someone on short notice and Samantha was super accommodating which was a relief. She was great with my dog at the meet and greet and I know she'll be great with her every time! She's wonderful to work with and I'm looking forward to my dog seeing her on a regular basis.”
About: I have 3 dogs of my own: Harley, Haku and Haven. I have loved all animals since I was young. I am a caring, responsible, respectful and fun animal person.

My husband and I are available on the weekends and would love to care for your fur baby.

I also have play pens and a crate to keep your fur baby safe if needed. I am home all day during weekends, so I will be with your fur baby the duration of their stay.

“Sydney is wonderful with our 21 month old ALD, Ginger. Ginger looks forward to her arrival and always comes home full of excitement. I like getting the report cards the most. I highly recommend Sydney to anyone who needs a gentle and loving pet sitter.”
About: With 8 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I treat every pet like a member of my own family. I've cared for both kittens and puppies under a year old, as well as senior dogs aged 10 and up. Staying at home allows me to dedicate my time and attention to your furry friends, just like I do with my own beloved dog. Your pet's happiness and well-being are my top priorities! I'm like a pet concierge, but instead of booking spa days, I'm giving belly rubs, playing fetch and going on walkies. I am very flexible and can watch/ walk your pets from daily and on weekends. Depending on my availability I can care for your baby up to a week if needed. After walking your pets, I usually ask where and how you would like me to leave you pets at home whether it be their crate, just in home or outside in their yards. For caring at my own home for your pets be rest assured that they will be receiving the upmost attention and no leaving their side as I stay at home and care for my own pup who is 1.

About: Hey there! While I’m new to Rover, I’m definitely not new to caring for dogs. I’m a proud dog mom to my sweet girl, Hlub, and I know just how much love, attention, and care our pups need (and deserve!). I treat every dog like family—with patience, playtime, and all the love they need to feel safe and happy. I might not have a list of Rover reviews yet, but I make up for that with genuine care, strong attention to detail, and a huge heart for animals. I’ll follow your dog’s routine exactly, send you lots of updates, and make sure your pup gets all the cuddles, walks, and play they need while you’re away. I’d be honored to earn your trust and your dog’s tail wags! Pet care is a natural part of my daily life because I have a dog of my own—my sweet girl, Lu. Every day revolves around making sure she’s happy, healthy, and loved, whether that’s morning walks, playtime, feeding her on schedule, or just relaxing together. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs, and making them feel safe and cared for is something I do with joy, not obligation. I have the flexibility to include pet care into my routine, and I always plan my days with my dog’s needs in mind—so doing the same for your pup would feel like second nature to me! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my approach is all about making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable—just like they would with you. In my home, I keep a clean, cozy, and pet-friendly space where your dog will get lots of love, playtime, and structure. I stick to their usual routines (like feeding times, walk schedules, and any special instructions) so they feel right at home. I also make sure they have plenty of room to relax and play, and of course—lots of cuddles if they want them! In your home, I’m super respectful of your space and routines. I’ll follow all your instructions closely—whether that’s medication, feeding, crate time, or just how your pup likes to be greeted. I’ll also keep you updated regularly so you always know how your fur baby is doing. No matter where I’m caring for your pet, their comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities! *There’s a trail and pond right nearby so we are always enjoying plenty of walks outside.
“Jill was excellent and so caring with my puppy! She provided my puppy with love and guidance. She was also kind enough to try a new leash to correct some of my puppy’s bad habits. Will definitely request Jill again in the future.”

8. Sudha D.
“Sudha is an amazing, loving, and responsibly dog mom. Since high school and up until now in college, her dedication to shelter animals and her dog Heera amazes me. Even though I am also a dog mom, she teaches me how to provide pets with the right care and how to place their needs as a priority. If there ever was a health problem with any animal, not just dogs, she would be the first one to resolve it and provide extra love for it. When she talked to me about her time at the foster shelter and how much she loved interacting with every dog and cat, that is when I knew she not only is an amazing person but an above-and-beyond individual.”
