“Tiara was so great. She did a meet and greet prior to the dog sitting and my dogs really liked her. The day of she showed up on time and stayed with the pups while we were on a day trip. She was so easy to communicate with and such a sweetheart. I would definitely use her again!”


“JoAnne was amazing. She took my dogs out on multiple walks, let them cuddle up with her while we were gone and we came home to happy dogs! Means so much to have someone we trust with our fur babies when we have to leave town for the weekend! Thank you again so much! Will definitely be booking again.”


“Eva is a doll! She looked after our older girls like they were her own. She handled our tricky pill-spitting Miso like a champ lol. We were provided with daily updates and pictures, she was also kind enough to also take in our packages and left our place cleaner than how we left it. Most importantly our dogs were unstressed with our leave with Eva and we will definitely be reaching out to her again. Thank you Eva!!”

“Brittney was great! She even came by a couple times beforehand to meet Luna. She was very sweet and friendly and knowing that our dog quickly warmed up to her says a lot! She was great with getting her out of the house on walks and spent quality time with her. We would definitely work with Brittney again!”


“Stephanie took great care of Paulie! Paul can be apprehensive of new people and on the first day she sent a great video of them having a ball in the yard together. Stephanie was on time and took good care of our home. I'd absolutely love it if Stephanie became part of our Paul care team and continued to sit for us on the future!”


“Sarah did a fantastic job watching our pup. Lulu was so happy when we got back and was extremely well taken care of. She kept in touch all the time, and we never felt worried about how Lulu was doing. Sarah is a super kind person and we would definitely recommend her to watch anyone else’s pet and we’d be lucky to have her again!”


“This was my first time leaving my cat overnight since adopting her a few years ago, so I was definitely a bit nervous but Katherine made the whole experience completely worry-free. She provided frequent updates and adorable photos that gave me peace of mind while I was away. She was incredibly friendly, responsive, and accommodating throughout. I also came home to a spotless house, exactly how I left it. I’m beyond grateful for the care she gave my cat and am absolutely certain I’ll be hiring her again for any future cat-sitting needs. Highly recommend!”


“Zakiya is a wonderful doggy caregiver. She house sat for my elderly dog while I was away for work, and provided thorough and thoughtful care for my dog who was unfortunately stressed due to her humans being away. I will definitely hire her again.”


About: I’ve been a dog handler at the wags club for 3 years now working with all breeds, size, and temperament. During my time there I’ve learned a lot about dogs, basic body language, and how to keep them safe and happy. Please feel to reach out about my availability! I’m currently working full time at a doggy daycare from 7am-4pm. After my shift I’m completely free with not much to do & it’d be a pleasure to continue being around dogs that bring so much joy into my life as well as theirs. I don’t have dogs of my own because the place that I stay at doesn’t allow dogs unfortunately so taking care of your pup and ensuring their well being and safety definitely makes up for it. If they’re is anything that your pup needs to make him or her feel comfortable while your away I will be more than glad to accommodate your pups needs. My priority is to make sure your pup is safe and supervised at all times while your away from home.

“Gaby was wonderful and I have already booked her for the next time I'll be out of town! Very sweet girl with a kind heart that just loves dogs. She was great at communicating with me and sending pictures of my pup. I highly recommend!”


“Khristina was so great! She was so communicative and responsive and I really appreciate her watching my sweet Teddy over the weekend. He is an elderly dog who takes medication so I’m always so scared to leave him with anyone, but she gave me such peace of mind and she took great care of him!”


“Haley was so incredible. She was on time and was so good with Angel. Angel is partially blind and requires a lot of one on one attention, and Haley went above and beyond for her. I’m so glad I was able to book her on Rover and am looking forward to working with her again.”


“Marlene was a life saver during a trip we had to extend unexpectedly! She was so great with our Eva girl and when we got back she was happy. Definitely will continue booking with her!”


“Jacqueline watched my two very large dogs, one whom is very reactive. She kept me updated on her arrival and departure time. My dogs looked very at ease and happy with her. When she left, she washed my sheets and left everything in great condition. Would definitely rebook”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life - both young and old. I also have experience working with both cat and dog rescues and fostering. Most of my experience is with sporting dogs and toy dogs, so my expertise runs the gamut! I currently have a 5lbs senior Maltese named Minnie who is with me when I pet sit. She mostly keeps to herself but gets along with all animals. I am currently available weekdays and some evenings per week - mostly Thursdays through Sunday. Please see schedule for specific info when booking your service. I will take care of your pet in my home as long as you need. I am good with puppies, senior dogs, giving medication, basic health care and also certified in pet first aid. At my house I have a lovely grassy yard and spacious backyard for the dogs to play in a comfortable environment for your pet. I am happy to give a tour of my home prior to your booking - so you can see inside and out.

“Aileen was awesome! She is very punctual, reliable and knowledgeable when it comes to taking care of fur babies! I felt very much at ease that Aileen was with my dogs! She communicated frequently to let me know things were going well and sent pictures daily!!! Woild highly recommend!!!”


About: Experience with a variety of dogs from small to large and young to senior. I love them all! I’ll make sure they’ll get their steps in. I’m currently a student so I’ll have time available during the week to give your pets their needed walks and play time during the day. I have experience with my 8 year old Labrador as well as experience pet sitting my family members 5 dogs. I love providing them a safe and fun experience.

About: With 22 years of pet care experience, I am a highly knowledgeable and reliable pet sitter. My extensive background means I can confidently handle various situations and pet needs. Over the years, I've honed diverse skills and managed crises effectively. My commitment to continuous learning ensures I stay updated on the best practices in pet care. This wealth of experience allows me to provide personalized, high-quality care for every pet I look after. I recently graduated from SMC and my schedule is free as I'm preparing to transfer into my University. I'm usually pretty free any day of the week When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow specific feeding, watering, and exercise routines, ensuring pets always have fresh water and their waste is cleaned up promptly. I monitor their health, administer medications as needed, and provide plenty of companionship. For dog walking, I prioritize safety by using leashes and harnesses, I choose safe routes, and I manage behavior positively. I keep effective communication with clients and I respect their property. I also believe being prepared for emergencies is crucial and that these practices ensure pets receive the best care while their owners are away.

About: I’ve had a dog my whole life and have been an animal lover for just as long. I studied animal science at Tuskegee University so needless to say I’m definitely an animal person. I love all animals and understand the care that goes into taking care of them. I look forward to meeting you and your pet and most of all looking forward to providing quality care. Give me a try, you’ll be happy you did! I will prioritize my dog care responsibilities but i also run a small business daily. I’m home mostly but may leave out for a few hours each day depending on what I’ve scheduled. I provide exercise in my backyard and lots of attention, love and care based on the needs of the dog. I have a fully closed in yard and 360 cameras for extra security.

About: Hi! I have experience with both furry and non-furry friends; age groups ranging from puppies to our old senior pals. I’ve always found myself surrounded by animals & whether or not it was by choice, it was always a blast getting to learn and meet a new face. As a pet owner myself, I understand the possible struggles you may face caring for pet and I’m looking to alleviate some of that stress for you. I can guarantee you that your pet will have 100% of my patience and attention as I strive to never turn a blind eye. Your pets health and safety will always be at the top of my list. As for services, I can offer baths and nail trimming. Although for the safety reasons, I will have to refuse these services for any frantic and anxious pets. And if interested, I can teach your dog a few basic tricks like sit, paw, and lay down and possibly even jump! I am full-time student currently on break so I have more than enough time to tend to your pets. I am available all week long; Monday-Fridays and occasionally Saturday and Sundays. Care for each pet will look differently depending on requests and suggestions left by owners. Though, a lot of the time, this care will look like regular walks, playtime, and frequent updates! I have two dogs of my own, Eevee; a fairly small dog, and Harley, a pit-mix. While Eevee is rather skittish and tends to keep her distance from new comers, Harley is an older dog who tends to be a lot more curious but minds her business. Harley is STRICTLY an outside dog and only stays in the backyard. I am always open to questions and suggestions because your pets safety is my #1 priority.

“🌟 Amazing Pet Care by Temi! 🌟 I recently had the pleasure of leaving my cat, Strawberry, in Temi's care and I couldn't be happier with the experience! Temi was incredibly attentive and loving towards Strawberry, making sure she was well-fed, entertained, and most importantly, comfortable while I was away. She provided regular updates, including photos and messages, which put my mind at ease knowing that Strawberry was in such good hands. It's clear that Temi truly cares about the pets she looks after, and she treated Strawberry as if she were her own. If you're looking for someone who will go above and beyond to take care of your furry friend, I highly recommend Temi. She is reliable, compassionate, and an absolute gem when it comes to pet care. Strawberry and I are so grateful! Thank you, Temi, for everything! 🐾❤️”
