“Brittany was awesome!! This was our first time using Rover and we were nervous about leaving our girls, but Brittany made it a great experience. She kept us up to date with pictures and comments. She even went above and beyond and brought our packages inside for us. 10/10 recommend. Will definitely be using her again!”


About: Long time dog lovers adopted by a pregnant stray cat shortly before our precious senior Brittanys passed. Our pet love has grown! 💜 I do miss the dog walks and silliness, and would be happy to share that again. I have a flexible schedule, and while our cats are mostly pretty chill, we have a separate space they can go if things feel tricky. At present I am a stay at home mom to one elementary aged child so my hours are flexible throughout the week. My husband frequently works from home and we are a pretty low key family of introverts. We have a large fenced yard for play and love to take walks on leashes. Our home is pet friendly and cozy. We have two cats who have their own space they can retreat to when needed. Our son is in kindergarten and has been around pets since birth.
“Sara was absolutely wonderful from the moment I first messaged her. This was my first time using Rover, and no regrets at all. She was incredibly accommodating with her schedule and ours, took excellent care of our pups, and was just so sweet with them and us the whole time. 100% recommend and will certainly book with her again!! THANK YOU SARA!”


“Did a great job with Coco, was very patient with her. Coco was a little nervous the firstt time she met Lindsey by herself. By their second interaction coco ran out the door with excitement.”

About: I’ve grown up in a family that always opened our home to animals- dogs, cats, and even the occasional bird. Whether we were helping friends, fostering, or adopting them into our family, caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. Once I started petsitting on my own, I realized just how special getting to know every pet’s distinct personality is. My goal is always to keep their routines steady and familiar while you’re away, so your pets feel safe, loved, and completely at ease. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly rhythm. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which makes it easy for me to plan my day around a pet’s needs- whether that’s morning walks, midday check- ins, playtime, or sticking to a specific feeding routine. Caring for animals isn’t something I’m squeezing in; it’s something I look forward to and can easily prioritize. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to make their world feel as steady and familiar as possible. I follow your established routine closely- regular potty breaks, mealtimes on schedule, daily walks, play sessions, cuddle time, or whatever your pet is used to. I pay attention to their moods and preferences so I can meet them where they’re comfortable, whether they’re energetic and playful or more shy and slow to warm up. I’m patient and gentle with new personalities, and I do my best to keep stress low by maintaining the rhythm they already know. I give plenty of attention and affection, and I make sure their physical needs, emotional needs, and little quirks are cared for with the same consistency you provide at home. I also keep your space tidy and respected while I’m there- clean food and water bowls, locked doors, lights the way you left them, and any small home routines you request. Most importantly, I’m committed to your pet’s safety and comfort. I’ll keep a close eye on how they’re doing, communicate with you throughout your trip, and make sure they’re cared for, loved, and fully supported until you’re home again.
“As always, Erica was amazing. She always communicates with us throughout the day which I really appreciate. This time we were gone the entire day and arrived home well after dark. Erica had plugged in all our Christmas lights and we came home to all our lights which I really liked, she also added a cute dog-themed tree topper to our tree (super cute), and brought in a package that had arrived while we were out. Erica goes above and beyond every time. She's not there just to walk the dogs and get paid, but really cares about the people she's helping and the dogs she's taking care of. Thank you!”

“Tiffany was a lifesaver as a last-minute walker! She was prompt, friendly, and our dog Maple loved her. I received updates throughout the walk, which was reassuring - I'll definitely be requesting her services again & highly recommend her to others in need of a dependable walker.”

About: Hi! I’m Jeannette, and I bring six years of pet-sitting experience to the table. Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine, and I love making sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I work from home, so your pets will always have plenty of attention and company throughout the day. My dog Theo is a friendly and playful pup who loves meeting new friends and will happily keep your dog entertained. We also have a fenced backyard, perfect for outdoor play and exercise! Thank you for considering me to care for your pets. I’d be happy to answer any questions and can’t wait to meet your pupper! Working from home allows me to provide flexible and attentive pet care. I’m able to adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs, ensuring they get plenty of love, attention, and companionship throughout the day. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize their comfort and routine. I follow detailed instructions, provide plenty of attention, and ensure their safety.
About: I’ve had/taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. My family always had big dogs, and my friends always had small dogs so I have experience with all ages and sizes! I am currently on summer break and working part time so my schedule is flexible. I have more than enough time to play and walk your dogs :) I treat every pet that I encounter like it is my own. I pay close attention to instructions and routine and ensure they receive more than enough attention and play.
About: I am a major lover of animals. From donkeys, chickens, and rabbits.. to horses, cats, and fish! I have owned them all and love to cuddle and get to know their personalities! I currently have three perfectly sweet cats of my own. I currently work a sporadic food service schedule, so it is easy to pick up any random emergency sittings or walks! I am off every Monday and ALWAYS available after 6PM every day. I can make available time to care for your pets with prior notice! I am very persistent in keeping rituals at home. Kitty eats when I leave for work, and when I return. His box is cleaned every night and he gets his scheduled cuddles and love right before bed. I enjoy as happy animal and a clean home for them and their owner to enjoy!
“Sarah has been a great daily walker for Sage. He's pretty high-energy when he walks, and she handles him perfectly! She's great at communicating and helping out with random things, like letting me know if I accidentally left my garage door open and bringing in packages. I will definitely keep her on the team as long as possible!”

About: I consider myself a "mother of nature," because no matter what what kind of animal it is I am a natural at nurturing everything from fur-babies to feathered friends. I grew up with dogs, and I've always helped my disabled mom with her 4, now senior, dogs (two pitties, a rat terrier, and a chiweenie.) I love taking them on nature walks, and I even cook chicken or ground beef and rice for them, and use holistic remedies to keep them in top shape for their ages (15+). Animal rescue also comes naturally, because I feel humans are meant to be the keepers of the earth. Every night I feed a colony of stray cats and their neighbors (raccoons, opossums, and ducks.) 😁💖 It's a joy to me to help and have fun with cats and dogs, because I love animals. That's why I'm your fur-baby's favorite auntie! If you feel like I would be a great fit for your pet, let me know when you need me to be available. I'm an entrepreneur, so I can make exceptions and be flexible with scheduling. Currently, I don't have any pets in my household, besides two cats that I allow in for feeding and sometimes sleeping at night or when the weather is bad. They usually prefers to be outside. I take my disabled mom's dogs out every evening, so it's like I have 3 dogs. Although, they don't live with me.
About: I’ve had tons of experience caring for my sister’s big pups, and I absolutely love it! From long walks to house visits, im experienced in both and I am somebody to count on. I’m super comfortable with larger/high energy breeds and always make sure every pet feels happy, safe, and loved in my care :)! I currently work part-time at a restaurant, which means I have plenty of time to spend with your furry friends! I’m off on Mondays and Thursdays—perfect for longer walks, extra playtime, or drop-in visits! Even on my workdays, I’m flexible and happy to fit in some tail-wagging fun around my schedule! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved! I follow their routines, keep things clean and cozy, and give plenty of playtime and cuddles. You can trust that I’ll treat your pets like family and keep you updated every step of the way!
About: Throughout the years, I have taken care of my own, my family’s, friends’, and neighbors’ dogs! I’m an outdoor person, so walks and playing comes easy! I have a flexible schedule for work, so your pet needs come first! Whatever day or time you need, I can make it happen :) Although I’d rather take care in your own place, I am ready to take walks, car rides, or trips to dog parks if that would work best for your pet!
“Delaney was a lifesaver!! Took a few trips and our skiddish dog doesn't like strangers, but took to Delaney right away. She's very professional and attentive to notes. Would 100% book her again 😊”

About: I’ve worked with a local business for 5 1/2 years, and have received training over general knowledge about animals, providing pet aid, and knowledge about pet behavior. I love animals and I am familiar with all ranges of animals from domestic to live stock and reptiles. I am familiar with distributing oral and injection medications as well. I love my current job, and I am passionate about spending time with, and taking care of everyone’s babies! I have three dogs and two cats of my own, and I know how it important it is to have peace of mind when you are away from them! I look forward to helping you and your fur babies! I’m working part time at a local pet business, and would love to add some extra work and hours to my schedule for the week. I am familiar with what to look for when walking animals or letting animals outside. I also know what to look for when an animal is experiencing medical issues. All the while, distributing lots of love and attention!
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals all my life, always opening my heart and home to rescues. Dogs hold a special place in my life, and I take pride in giving them the same love and care I would my own. Friends and family often trust me with their pets, knowing they’ll be safe, happy, and well cared for. I am very flexible and I have open availability throughout the week and weekends. Please let me know what I can do to help in any way! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I follow each client’s care instructions closely, whether it’s diet, routines, or special needs, to ensure consistency and trust. Beyond that, your fur baby will enjoy a loving, safe, and healthy environment filled with attention, play, and plenty of pets.

First time using the app as well as Coco's first time being walked by Lindsey. She was patient and very caring of coco. At first Coco would not want to go outside with her. Now Coco enjoys her walks and will go with Lindsey no problem. She is really nice and communicates very well. I appreciate her taking care of Coco. Will continue to have Coco walked by Lindsey.
