Once again, we had an amazing experience having Emily take care of our two cats while we were away. Our new kitten warmed up to her immediately and she was amazing about helping to get his energy out and giving him plenty of cuddle time. We always look forward to her updates and great photos and definitely plan to utilize her help and care again in the future :)

Melissa sought to go beyond in caring for my cat. She even returned one day to check on his food and water when I was worried it might be low. She played with him and his toys and sent me pictures that he was doing well. I will be asking for her help again!

Molly was great with my cat Cinnamon while I was away for a few days! Cinnamon clearly took a liking to her despite being quite aloof with new people. Molly sent photos each day which I really appreciated so that I knew that Cinnamon was being cared for in my absence! Thanks, Molly!

Mary Rose did a great job feeding and watering my cat, Lily! She administered meds each day as well. She communicated effectively and sent pictures during each visit. In addition, she washed the dirty plates from the prior visits and left everything neat and clean. I would highly recommend Mary Rose, and I’ll book with her again!

Mikayla and Justin are simply great. They took great care of my dog Thelma, who can be very skiddish as she is a rescue. Mikayla and Justin spent ample time letting Thelma warm up to them before taking her out for a walk. I would 10/10 recommend them for any pet care and I will definitely be booking them again for Thelma!

About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a little kid. My experience includes overnight care, oral medication administration, dog walking, dog sitting, and playtime! I have worked with all different types of dogs in terms of socialization whether they’re more comfortable around people or other dogs. I’m very good with specific instructions and attention to detail to give your pet the best experience I can! I am currently a full-time student athlete looking to bring some light into my life through this position. I am looking to work with clients and meet their pets needs. I am mostly available mornings, evenings, nights, overnight, and weekends! I always am looking to improve my pets quality of life and provide the best care for them. My pets are part of my family and that’s how I intend to treat yours! My favorite part of pet care is playing and walking because I get to directly interact with the animal!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was about 13. I also have experience with quite a few animals due to being raised in a home with multiple different animals. I am currently per diem at work so I have a bigger availability for pet sitting. My schedule is more open in that case, making it the best fit. I am very attentive and cater to the pets needs. With the experience that I have it does not make things difficult for me in both matters.

About: I use to have the sweetest dog since I was 7 but she died a few years ago of old age. I have also looked after and walked dogs of family friends in the past. With this I know plenty about caring for a dog. I am a student currently home for the summer so I have all the time in the world and would love to spend it taking care of one of your precious pets. I will treat your pet as if they are my own. I will make sure they get the top treatment and will stay educated on what the needs of your bet no matter the species it may be.

About: To say I'm a dog lover is an understatement! I had a dog of my own, so I know the ins and outs of caring for one, and I have over 4 years of experience. I don't have the schedule yet to own a dog of my own, so caring for other dogs is the next best thing. I don't have any preference of size or energy level, so I would love to tend to the needs of yours whenever you need it. My areas of experience are pet sitting, entertaining, walking, and boarding. I would love the opportunity to care for your dog! I just started graduate school at Syracuse University and am looking to continue pet sitting in my free time! For the summer I have class Monday-Thursday but am available early morning and late afternoon to provide walks, drop in care, or be overnight with your furry friend(s). I am very flexible and whatever the request may be, I will try my best to fulfill it! Nothing is ever too last minute, I am open to all requests. When caring for dogs in my home/apartment, I like the be around the dog playing with them or just keeping them company. Whenever I do have to leave I make sure they have the necessities and that they are comfortable while I’m not there. Being an athlete I am very active already, so taking a dog outside for long walks or just a scenic walk in the city/park would be my pleasure! Aside from staying active with your dog, I am a huge doggy cuddler, so if your dog loves to be up close and personal, I’m the person for you! When caring for dogs in other homes, I am sure to keep the dog entertained. I always keep an eye on them and keep them comfy. When walking a dog, I like to walk them through nature filled areas or places that are scenic and for a good amount of time so they themselves can enjoy the walk. I almost always walk dogs for longer than the requested times—- I enjoy them just as much as they do! Also, I have many independent clients outside of Rover so I am open to doing pay/booking outside of the app to avoid fees on both ends. Just ask!
