About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, growing up with both dogs and cats, which gave me a deep love and understanding of their needs. For the past two years, I’ve been pet sitting for clients, providing personalized care based on their preferences. I have experience with a variety of animals, including birds, kittens, puppies, dogs, and cats, and I’m comfortable administering medications when needed. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or ensuring pets stay on their routine, I’m passionate about giving them the best care possible! As a full-time student with classes spread throughout the week and a part-time job, I balance my schedule to ensure I can provide attentive and reliable pet care. My flexible routine allows me to accommodate pet-sitting needs, whether it’s daily check-ins, walks, or overnight stays. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make sure to prioritize their well-being while managing my academic and work responsibilities. I exclusively provide pet care services in my clients’ homes to ensure the best experience for their pets and mine. By caring for pets in their own home, I help maintain their routine and comfort, making the transition easier for them while their owners are away.
“Very communicative and personable- will book again!”
“Raenette took amazing care of our little girl, Chloe!”
“Rhonda took great care of our cats while we were away. She provided timely updates on them and was very easy and responsive to communicate with. Will definitely rebook with her again!”
“Wonderful experience - we had to rush out of town twice because of an elderly parent’s health. Samantha was there for us both times even though it was short notice. She saw to our cats needs and even helped out with an issue with unplugging a machine that was left running. Wonderful lady!!!”
About: I grew up with two dogs in my house that I was the main care taker of. We have also had Guinea pigs and rabbits. My work schedule rotates. So I would be available different days In the week. My schedule will be updated on that app weekly for my current schedule I will care for your pets like they are my own. I enjoy meeting new pets and making them happy. Dog walks are my favorite!
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and took the responsibility of taking care of and training our family dogs. They all turned out great with my first dog becoming a therapy dog helping children. Can’t imagine a world without a dog by your side! I currently work in a school system so during holidays, school breaks, and the summer I’m the most free but can always help once I get out of school as well. Great backyard with a pup to play with. Lots of shade and fencing. Many toys and such to play with as well. Great spot for dogs to relax.
About: Growing up, I had a Lab and then a Boxer and two cats. I've also helped my aunt at the doggie daycare she runs out of her home where she often has more than 10 dogs at a time. Everything from a Great Pyrenees to German Shepherds to Doodles to Yorkies. And it's always so much fun! The care I'll give your pets will really depend on them and their needs. There's a very large unfenced grass area behind my apartment building that would be perfect for walks or play. And there are multiple parks in the area too we could explore. At yours, I'd keep whatever their normal routine is. Whether that's taking walks, throwing the ball or just sitting and chilling and scratching butts. Their butts of course!

“I am very grateful to Christine for the excellent care she took of our fur family. Going away can cause anxiety for us humans, but we were able to enjoy ourselves knowing our cats were in good hands. They maintained their routines and were happy and well-adjusted when we got back, which is everything. Christine was communicative, sent pictures, and took great care of our home as well. We couldn't have asked for anything more in a sitter. Thank you, Christine!”
“This was my first time using Rover and Clint made me feel comfortable about it. Asked good questions about my dog beforehand and sent good updates and pictures while with Lucy. She looked like a happy girl!”
“Melissa is fantastic! She took excellent care of our cats- one of which requires medication- while we were away. We are always nervous to leave them for an extended period of time, but Melissa kept us updated and we felt confident that she had it handled. We will definitely ask her to care for our pets again!”
“Ashley took amazing care of our two kitties while we were on our honeymoon. We were able to have a stress-free trip knowing we could count on her to be there twice a day to feed them AND spend time with them! I will definitely be booking Ashley next time we go away, and you should too! She’s very sweet and intentional with animals. ❤️”
About: Growing up, my very first chores were dog- related, so animal care has always been integral in my life. While I sadly no longer have any furry friends of my own, I am an animal person at heart. I’ve pet-sat for family, neighbors, friends, Rover clients, for pets of all breeds and sizes, and I’m very comfortable around any dogs. I grew up with 2 German-shorthaired pointers, and I was responsible for their care daily before and after school. As we (me and the dogs!) all got older, I was the primary caretaker of them in their senior years, so I’m very familiar with the struggles and ailments that come with elderly dogs. I am strong enough to lift most dogs if stairs are any issue- our dogs were around 60-70lbs. I have had roommates with cats who I’ve become very close with. I’ve always loved cats, so learning to care for them and earning their trust was so exciting. I’ve cared for the cats for a week’s time before, so would feel comfortable caring for cats as well. I love pet sitting- it’s nice to have a furry friend to visit since I lack one in my own family at the moment! Any client of mine gets all the pets and attention they could ever dream up. I am also very active, and I walk or run every day, so having a companion there is a bonus for us both! I look forward to your consideration, and if you have any questions about my experience or anything please let me know. I am currently between full-time jobs but keeping my calendar updated very frequently with my summer availability as I am hoping to pick up work either ongoing or on a one-time basis! Depending on the comfort of each pet, I always spend some time introducing myself and getting to know them at first. Spend some time petting them and getting them comfortable with my presence in their space, and next playing with them if they’re up for it. Once they know they can trust me, we’ll take the day ahead together and they’ll alternate resting, playing with toys, and walking outside. I also love to share photos with owners, so I’ll be sure to keep you posted on what we’re up to.

About: Pre-vet student with years of pet care experience; moderate experience in puppy/dog training, senior care, and medication, providing expert, compassionate attention to every beloved pet!

About: Hi there! I have 15 years of pet experience, especially with dogs, but most importantly love animals. Beyond prior pet care and volunteer experience, I've spent the last 5 years fostering dogs and have had my own dogs, one stubborn pup currently (house sitting without her), giving me the opportunity to care for and work with dogs of a wide range of needs both health wise and behaviorally. I love getting to know new pups of all ages, shapes and personalities and will be sure to provide them with the best time away from their family possible, following any routine and needs they have. Although notice is great, I am happy to take last minute bookings. With my work I can easily fit my schedule to your dog's typical exercise, engagement, and feeding routine. I would care for them however you request, and however they’re used to being taken care of. I’d follow whatever care instructions you provide along with any notes shared with me during our meet and greet.

“I’ve had the pleasure of trusting Alex with my dogs multiple times, and I can confidently say he is one of the most skilled, compassionate, and reliable people I’ve met when it comes to working with dogs—of any breed. Whether it’s a high-energy shepherd, a stubborn bulldog, or a timid rescue, Alex knows exactly how to approach each dog with the right balance of patience and kindness. His calm demeanor put both dogs and owners at ease. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, experienced, and genuinely passionate about dogs of all shapes and sizes, Alex is the one. I highly recommend!”

She’s been great with our dog and will be a wonderful caregiver to your dog or cat.”

“Tina watches my cat and dog. She has done drop in visits as well as pet sitting for me. When Tina does a drop in visit, she is prompt and spends time with the pets. As a pet sitter, she is reliable and trustworthy. In both scenarios, her first inclination is to the well being of my pets and making them feel as safe and loved as they are with me. Both pets enjoy her company. I would highly recommend Tina to take care of your pets.”
Chrissie D.
“Chrissie has taken care of my dog, George, for about half a year now. I completely trust her with him and more importantly, George loves her company. Whether I'm going out of town or George needs a quick walk, Chrissie is my go-to dog sitter. She's very responsive and is very easy to reach. I appreciate that she's always taking the time to ask questions about George's habits and health. I'd recommend Chrissie to anyone looking for a caring, responsible dog sitter.”
