About: I’ve always loved animals and currently care for my own Yorkshire Terrier puppy, Molly. Being a pet owner has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and paying close attention to a dog’s needs. As a college student and part-time employee, I am responsible, dependable, and committed to making every walk safe, fun, and enjoyable. I will treat your dog with the same love and care I give my own I’m currently a part-time employee and a college student, which gives me flexibility to provide reliable pet care. I’m available for dog walks during my free time, including evenings, weekends, and many weekdays. I always make sure each pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and care during every visit. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I always keep dogs securely leashed during walks, follow each owner’s instructions carefully, and provide fresh water if needed. I pay close attention to each dog’s behavior and avoid unsafe situations. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same care I give my own dog.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my hands-on experience, patience, and dedication to providing loving, attentive care, especially for senior pets. Over the past four years, I’ve cared for my dog, Pancho, who became sick and needed consistent monitoring and extra attention. I’ve helped manage his medication, previously every 12 hours and now every morning, while making sure he has fresh water and receives his meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. This experience has taught me how important it is to be patient, attentive, and responsible when caring for senior pets or animals with special needs. I also have a cat, Tyson whom I care for daily and feed on a consistent schedule. Caring for my own pets has helped me understand that every animal has unique needs and deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m comfortable providing extra attention, maintaining feeding routines, monitoring pets closely, and helping with medication schedules as directed. Whether caring for a senior pet, a puppy who needs patience and guidance, or an animal who needs a little extra care, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I primarily work from home, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule and provide consistent attention to pets throughout the day. I also work at a gym on Mondays and Sundays. I’m organized with my time and can plan accordingly to ensure pets receive reliable, attentive care. My home is smoke-free and has a fenced-in yard, providing a comfortable environment for pets. I also have a crate available if needed. Pets are welcome on the furniture and will be treated like family, with plenty of love, attention, and care. I’m happy to follow each pet’s routine and accommodate their individual needs to help them feel safe and comfortable. I do have two dogs, Rocky and Pancho. Both are males, ages are 2 years old and 9.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all different sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’ve always loved spending time with dogs and making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I also have experience caring for dogs while babysitting for families, including feeding them, taking them outside, playing with them, and giving them plenty of attention. I’m responsible, dependable, and would love the opportunity to help care for your dog like they’re my own! I’m currently a graduate student, so I have a pretty flexible schedule with plenty of openings between my classes. This gives me a lot of availability throughout the week, and I’m happy to work around your schedule and your pet’s normal routine! I always want pets to feel safe and comfortable around me. I allow each animal to move at their own pace when getting to know me and give them the time and space they need to build trust. I never force interactions and will always respect your pet’s boundaries while making sure they feel cared for and loved.

“Very professional and responsive and extremely understanding to all a new puppy owners questions!”

About: I’m a responsible, active, and caring dog lover who knows how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. As a Division I college athlete, I’m disciplined, dependable, and great at managing my time and responsibilities. I miss my own dog while away at college, so I love getting to spend time with other dogs! I’m happy to help with walks, playtime, feeding, and giving your pup lots of attention and affection. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! My field hockey season is over so I have lots of time to help care for your pups! I am very active but also love a good nap with a furry friend. Being away at college has made me appreciate even more how special it is to have a dog around! I love giving pets attention, whether that means going on walks, playing outside, or just relaxing together. In your home, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while sticking to their usual routine. As a Division I athlete, I’m responsible, dependable, and organized, and I’ll treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own!

About: Over the past 10+ years, I’ve gotten the joy of caring for two high-energy, adorable Australian Shepherds, as well as my sister’s playful German Shepard and well-loved family Dachshund. I enjoy long walks, runs, and I’m always open to provide well-earned treats and belly scratches. As I await my own four legged friend, I would love to love on yours! I look forward to meeting you and your pup. I am currently a full-time emerging mental health care professional building my caseload. I currently have consistent availability week to week, but feel free to reach out regarding alternative times. Safety is essential part of caring for your beloved furry friends. I prioritize cultivating a non-stressful environment and attuning to your dog’s needs moment to moment.

About: I have had lots of different types of animal experiences since I was a child including always having a cat in the household and volunteering with animal shelters. My specialty is cats but I have a few years experience with sitting and walking dogs as well. I am always up for a new challenge and am very capable and adaptable. I have worked in many animal shelters, as well as managed a cat shelter and a cat cafe, so I am very comfortable approaching all animals. I also currently work at a traveling pet vaccine clinic and am going back to school to be a vet tech! I have a very flexible schedule because I run my own cat oriented business and make my own hours. My whole life is animals, so I love to fit them into my life as much as possible. I currently only offer services in my clients’ homes, and to ensure that their pets are always safe and secure, I am very on top of communication and checking in with my pet parents. I like to review all instructions together to make sure I don’t have any questions and know exactly what contacts are (vet, ER, friends) for emergencies. I always respect other people’s space and will leave things exactly as I left them, if not better. Letting someone into your home to take care of your fur family requires a lot of trust and I feel honored when someone allows me that privilege.

About: I’ve loved being around pets for as long as I can remember, and growing up with dogs taught me just how special they are. Caring for animals is my absolute passion! I am dedicated to providing a safe, loving, and fun environment for your pups, and I can't wait to meet your fur babies! Because I maintain a fairly flexible schedule, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I structure my day around your pet's established feeding, walk, and play schedules. Whether your pet needs early morning check-ins, midday play, or evening snuggles, I'm able to prioritize their specific needs so they stay happy, comfortable, and on track while you're away. Your pet’s health, safety, and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every animal in my care with the same patience and devotion I give my own. Every pup is unique, so I customize my approach to fit their specific needs—whether that means high-energy playdates, quiet 1-on-1 neighborhood walks, or specialized care for timid and senior dogs. I maintain a secure, calm environment and keep you updated every step of the way with photos and notes for complete peace of mind.

About: Hi my name is vanessa. I have had pets (cats, dogs) since I was young. I love working with any type of animal. I am available 7 days a week and can work around your schedule. I'll ensure that your pet is loved, gets tons of attention, walked, toileted (go and do their business) and fed at the appropriate time. If the pet family member happens to require medicine, I am more than willing to give it to them. Your pet will be entertained with play. If I'm staying at your house, I can also do any light cleaning and get the mail. You can definitely count on me to do the job right and get it done. I look forward to taking care of your pet. I'm available 7 days a week to either pet watch in my home or stay at your home. I cannot do daily visits as I do not drive. I live in a condo complex that is very far set back.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and worked in dog training for over a decade, and I’m comfortable with all sizes and breeds! I’ve also helped raise puppies to become guide dogs for the blind, and am experienced with senior dog care as well. I am a grad student and am available on weekdays, evenings, and weekends for pet sitting, house sitting, and dog walking! I can also be available on certain vacations and holiday breaks for pet sitting, house sitting, and dog walking. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds. I have 12 years of dog sitting and dog training experience and am more than happy to stay at your home with your dog(s) in order to make sure all of their needs are met. I have cared for senior dogs primarily over the last five years, so I am very comfortable and experienced with older dogs and their specific needs. I also have experience administering medication to dogs both orally and topically.

About: I've been around animals my whole life and they are very comforting. I became a dog foster parent 4 years ago & enjoyed every moment! While fostering these lil puppies, I would train them & take them for walks. My availability looks very flexibly. During the week Monday thru Friday is opened, and the weekends I can work around (if its something that you are needing) I will spend lots of time with them, giving them extra love & playtime, just like if you were there with them so they wouldn't feel so alone!

About: I had a dog since I was in 2nd grade, for around 15 years. I have experience in young puppy care and senior dog care. Just getting into the Rover business, but eager of learn and would love to help! So I’m currently a 3rd Resident Physician at the hospital, so I do have more time on weekends to do sit ins and walks. I miss having a dog and taking care of one so this is my way to give back! I also can do late night sit ins or walks after my shift which usually ends at 630pm. I have an apartment with a doggy park and a pet cleaning and bathing area. The doggy park is fenced with toys and water. I’m great at following instructions and will take great caution and care in others home.

I’ve owned multiple shelter dogs and understand many of the problems that can arise with pets. Through my own pets I also have years of experience dealing with health issues and behavioral issues.
