“Nikki did a great job walking and caring for our dog today! She sent several pics, videos, and an awesome, detailed update. She even worked on some training with her. I will book her again for sure!”

About: With many years as a pet mom and animal rescuer, pets are part of the family and yours will be treated like part of mine. Available to offer bird and reptile sitting as well as drop in for aquatic feedings I'm currently finishing my degree online, so I'm readily available all day for walks and drop ins as well as time to actively engage with every pet for a well rounded experience. I live in a lovely neighborhood with sidewalks and access to parks for all of your pet walking needs. My home is multi level with plenty of space for pets of all sizes. I also have a small dog of my own to keep yours company as well as a cat who loves other cats and dogs.
“Sadie is so sweet and kind! She's great with my highly energetic dog, Scout. She walks him all around my neighborhood and is kind to all of our neighbors she meets on our walk. She's very dependable and has great communication skills. I am so glad I found her to help me with Scout!”

“Angelina was F A N T A S T I C. Communication was perfect, always there when we needed her, and she took SUCH good care of our Stewart, and that’s no small task because he’s kind of a dufus. But he’s our dufus, and Angelina made him feel like so happy and loved. He would absolutely lose his marbles as soon as he saw her pull into the driveway every day. We love our Angelina and can’t wait to hire her again in the future!!”

About: I have always had dogs in the household ever since I was born. More specifically my family had my sister and I grow up around Black Labs the entirety of my life. Neighbors as well as my immediate family have relied on me to take care of their animals. Whether it be a short walk or staying with them for an extended period of time, I was their guy! I have an extremely open/flexible schedule. I am self employed so I pretty much choose when I want to work my other job. Taking care of animals via Rover will take top priority unless my job situation changes. If that occurs I will make sure to update my profile accordingly! I have no other animals/roommates in my apartment. So your dog/cat will get all the undivided love and attention they deserve while you're away. Same rules apply if I am asked to dog/cat sit at a clients home!
About: I have helped take care of animals ever since I was 5. Over the years, I have dog sat for friends and neighbors along with providing support when needed. I have never not had a pet and have always made sure to do my research to ensure I am treating any pet in the best way possible along with ensuring what is and isn’t safe for different animals. I have many friends that come to me first when they need help, especially with their animals. Many of my friends have called me a dog whisperer. I currently work full time from home as an accountant. I tend to be home most weekends and my hours make it very easy to fit any animal into my schedule. I have a rabbit currently at my home and my neighbors have a dog, cats, and chickens. I would always make sure that the animal is supervised as I know how important a pet is and the responsibility necessary to ensure it stays safe.
About: I’ve been a dog mom for years to two amazing pups — a 9-year-old pitbull and a 2-year-old Doberman mix. They’ve taught me so much about patience, love, and understanding that every dog has their own personality and needs. Over the years, I’ve gained a lot of hands-on experience with both training puppies and caring for senior dogs, and I really enjoy tailoring my care to each pet’s routine. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which means I can give plenty of attention to the pets I care for. On weekdays or weekends, I’m usually available and love spending my time keeping dogs happy and comfortable. When pets stay with me, they’re treated like family — with lots of playtime, exercise, and round-the-clock care. If I’m in your home, I’ll follow your routines, keep everything clean and safe, and make sure your pets feel relaxed while you’re away. I’ll also send you updates so you can feel reassured that your furry friends are doing great.

About: I am a very kind person to animals and people! I try to treat people and animals as I would like to be treated.

We owned chihuahuas and we owned boxers and pugs. I also own a cat that I love very much! I hope that you will consider me to care for your pets when you are not able to. I promise to treat them as though they were my own. I hope that you will consider me to care for your pet and will do my best. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule.

About: I am a Certified Veterinary Technician and have experience in pet sitting and the veterinary field for the past 20 years. I owned a pet sitting business for 5 years (2008 - 2012) and experience in general practice, emergency, specialty, and shelter medicine. Having a medical background allows me to pick up on medical issues and emergencies in a timely fashion, allowing for treatment if necessary. I am also able to administer medications as needed. I treat others' dogs the same way I treat my own pets and keep daily routines as close to their normal as much as possible. I work full time at a clinic and part time at the local humane society. I am available limited days during the week for walks and drop in services. Please see the calendar for up to date availability! I discuss your pets routine with you so I can keep it the same as possible during my visits. This helps keep your pet's schedule uninterrupted and allows for calmer and happier experiences!
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I bring a well-rounded and deeply committed approach to pet care. I am the owner of Oh My Paws, a pet-sitting business I started during college, and have worked as a kennel technician, dog handler for Can Do Canines, and am currently completing an apprenticeship at a Humane Society. These roles have given me experience with a variety of temperaments, medical needs, and behavioral challenges. What truly sets me apart is my background in dog behavior and training. I am currently studying to earn my CPDT-KA (Certified Professional Dog Trainer – Knowledge Assessed) certification and have experience training service dogs through the Falcon Fetch program. This gives me a unique ability to understand body language, reduce stress in pets, and ensure a safe, enriching environment during their care. Pet care is a central part of my life and something I prioritize in my weekly routine. I have very open availability on weekends (Saturday–Sunday), and I’m also available on Mondays if needed. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent and dependable care, whether it’s for daily visits, overnights, or last-minute bookings. Because I run my own pet-sitting business and am actively involved in training and animal welfare work, I structure my schedule around the pets I care for. I take the time to provide each animal with individualized attention, exercise, enrichment, and a calm, safe environment. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I begin with a detailed intake to learn about each pet’s routine, medical needs, triggers, and preferences, and I tailor my care accordingly. I use positive reinforcement and clear communication to build trust with animals, helping them feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s usual routines as closely as possible to reduce stress. I’m respectful of the home environment, leave things exactly as I found them, and provide regular updates with photos and notes for peace of mind.
About: I have helped my family take care of our pets almost my whole life! Since moving out I’ve had my own pets (cats and dogs). I understand the importance of giving your pet attention while you’re gone, since they could be stressed with the change in routine! I’m a farm girl at heart! I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, sheep, ducks, chickens, cows, pigs, rats, hamsters….you name it! I work from home so I’m available to spend time with your pets throughout the day! As long as I have access to Wi-Fi I can work from anywhere! I am comfortable with crate training if your pet needs it. I follow direction very well so just leave me with a detailed note on how things run and I’ll keep it as consistent as possible for your pet!
About: I have been a CVT for 15 years, actively working at an emergency/specialty clinic. I can care for all ages and sizes of dogs and cats.

I will utilize your house to care for your pets so they are more comfortable and less stressed. I will follow your daily routines to keep them feeling secure.
About: Since my family got a chihuahua in 2011, I have loved dogs! And in 2021, my family got 2 new puppies! I only have owned small dogs but I volunteer at the Humane Society and have worked with dozens of dogs with different sizes and temperemants! Thursdays and Fridays are my most available days, but let me know what you need and I will find time! I am an online student so I don't have many time constraints!
