About: I’ve taken care of dogs for family friends and my own pets for almost 15 years! I’ve had about a ton of dogs throughout my life, most of them have been bigger dogs like labs or pittie mixes but I love dogs of ALL sizes!! Besides from owning a dog that is dog selective and has anxiety, I’ve worked at a doggie daycare/boarding facility so I have confidence in caring for dogs with anxiety or aggression!! I also am confident caring for senior dogs or giving dogs meds. I have a deep understanding of the unique needs and personalities of our furry companions. I believe that pets are family and deserve the same level of care and attention as any other loved one. That's why I strive to create a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for your pets while you're away. Whether it's long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just some good old-fashioned TLC, I am dedicated to making sure your pets are happy and healthy during your absence. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends and providing them with the love and care they deserve! Let me be your go-to pet sitter for all your pet care needs! I have four dogs and three cats so I know a thing or two about pet care!! I’m very good with routines so if your pet needs special care I’m here! I’m very observant and your pup will never leave my sight outside!! I’m very good with routines so if your pup has a special routine I promise it will not be interrupted with me!!

About: Hi! I've been a dog dad for over 30 years and know how important your fur baby is to you. I have experience with all different breeds, ages and levels of health. My promise is to focus on your dog's happiness and comfort level during their entire stay; further, I will follow all nutrition/medication needs, potty/feeding/play time/walking schedules, and will truly ensure they're loved and cared for just like they were my own. I’d greatly appreciate the honor of welcoming them into my home. You will receive frequent updates as much as you like. I recently lost my dog of 17 years. Now live alone, and have a strict one-dog policy, so yours will receive the individualized 24/7 attention they deserve. I work full-time from home, same employer for 20 years. I am available all seven days/nights for whatever attention your dog needs or wants, and any potty schedule your dog is accustomed to. I require little to 0 notice for booking or cancellations, and able to travel when needed. My house is on a quiet culdesac with no through traffic. The back yard is secure and completely fenced, very enjoyable space for your dog to play in. Dogs are welcomed on all furniture. Home is smoke-free. I can also travel to the client's home for all necessary dog sitting/walking services.

16. Addison H.
About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and have had many pets over the years, including dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, chinchillas, hamsters, gerbils, mice, parrots, fish and various reptiles. I started working at doggy daycares/boarding facilities when I was a teenager. I now work in the veterinary industry and pet sit for fun! I’m new to Rover but not new to pet sitting. I’m available to stop by your house several times a day to feed, walk, and play with your pets as needed. I’m happy to drive your pets to any grooming/veterinary appointments as well. I can do drop in visits or board exotics at my house if preferred (they will be kept away from my dogs at all times) - you can provide a cage/enclosure, or I have several spare ones of various sizes/styles I can set up if you let me know ahead of time. I can board dogs as long as they’re dog friendly - I have an energetic Phu Quoc ridgeback puppy who loves to play and an older schnauzer mix who prefers napping. Both are good with other dogs. I live on an acre property and have a fully fenced yard. I have access to veterinary care 24/7 should it ever be needed.

18. Katie S.
“Katie has been pet sitting for me for years! She loves my pets like I do so I don't worry when I take a vacation how my pets are doing. I have 2 dogs and 4 cats. They are all on special foods and the dogs cannot have some foods as it makes them sick. Katie is very attentive to that and they have never gotten sick when she has watched them. She exercises them, takes them to play ball, and just is an overall fantastic pet sitter!”
19. Joe R.
“Joe is a patient, loving dog sitter that can handle taking care of multiple dogs at a time, elderly dogs that require medication or a hyper dog that just needs to play. He has watched my pet multiple times for years and I have never had any issues.”
20. Denise F.
“Denise is great with animals. Our 3 dogs absolutely love her and get so excited when they see her. She has a friendly personality. I have not met a single dog that doesn’t love Denise.”
