“Dani is great -- my dog loves her! She's communicative, trustworthy, knowledgeable, and clearly loves dogs. She takes great care and even sent me a photo of something she noticed on my dog, which I truly appreciated. I can relax knowing my dog is in great hands with Dani!”

About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life, I've had a dog for 11 years, so I understand firsthand what it means to care for a pet like family. I have hands-on experience with dog sitting and walking, and I'm comfortable with daily routines, exercise needs, and making sure dogs feel safe and comfortable in any environment. Your dog will always be in caring, attentive hands! I work part-time, which means I have plenty of flexibility throughout the week to give dogs the time and attention they deserve. Whether it's weekday walks or weekend sitting, I'm available, your pet always comes first. When caring for pets in your home, my top priority is keeping things consistent and stress-free for your dog. I follow your established routines: feeding schedules, walk times, and any house rules, so your pet feels comfortable and secure in their own space. I treat every client's home with respect, ensure doors and gates are always secure, and provide updates and photos so you always know your pup is happy and safe.
About: I've been a dog person my entire life, I enjoy hiking and I love nothing more than being out in nature with a pup by my side. My schedule is extremely flexible so I can be there whenever you need me to be. And inclement weather doesn't stop me from getting your pup out! I have a fully fenced in yard and am walking distance to Winslow Park. I'm also a short drive away from Compo Beach if your pup likes to swim.

“I felt very comfortable going out of town and leaving my new cat in Kathy's care. He's very shy but she managed to see him. There was good communication and I found her to be very caring.”

About: I’ve dealt with pets of all kinds. Big, small, medium, and ones that aren’t potty trained. However, I love all animals! You’re pet will be my top priority, and they will be in good hands for the duration of time that I am needed! As a college freshman on summer break, I have plenty of time on my hands to tend to your pet. Even after finding a job, your pet will be my priority! I own a mini-dachshund who you will find either bubbling with energy, or basking in the sunshine in the back yard. His activity level is completely dependent on our behavior! Thanks to his loving personality, he is always by our side and being loved. He has free access to water whenever he needs it and is fed twice per day. Rocky would never run away, as his he too emotionally attached and can’t stand to be alone for even five minutes!

About: I’m a hard working professional who works remote and looking to spend some time with animals. I’ve always had a dog growing up and am looking to pet sit until I get a dog of my own again.

About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong dog enthusiast with over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all shapes and sizes. I have been surrounded by dogs my entire life- currently, I share my home with the light of my life, Apple - my sweet pup of 4 years. I attend dog training classes every Sunday with her and use top-quality treats to reinforce positive behavior with love, patience, and play. I am also familiar with reactive dog training and advanced tactics to help dogs feel at ease, especially when in their own home environment. My goal is to make every dog feel happy, safe, and well-loved! Whether it's a quick walk or extended care, your pup will be treated like one of my own! I am an elementary school teacher during the school year, so my schedule is very flexible in the summertime. I'm not available for overnights, since I have my own dog at home, but I am available the rest of the day, including most weekends! I am a firm believer in a walk at least every 4-5 hours and ample play and exercise throughout the day. Dogs need stimulation, whether that be through tug, fetch, training through tricks, or sniffing walks. Oh, and lots and lots of belly rubs! I can also take care of any hygiene requests including, but not limited to baths, brushing, and teeth brushing depending on the dog.
“Jenny was an amazing cat sitter! She was so attentive, my cat was immediately comfortable with her, and she sent great updates to let us know how things were going while we were away. I will continue to use and recommend her”


About: I’ve grown up taking care of animals my whole life, assisting my family with our array of pets. I’m great with bigger dogs who may require more strength to walk.

I also am very active and can take your dogs for long walks/runs/hikes if requested! I currently have no pets in my apartment besides my fish tank.

“Pam was so great with our two kitties while we were away. She was on time every day and we truly appreciated the extra steps she took like vacuuming and offering to take out the trash. Would definitely book again. Thanks!”

About: I have been babysitting for my neighbors, friends, and family. They really rely on me to take care of their babies when they are on vacation, at work, or running late. They have also asked me to run home and take care of their animals. I'm currently working a part-time job, so I have plenty of time to walk and play with your pups! I'm available on the weekends and weekdays. I have a multiz male dog who is very friendly and playful. He is used to being around other dogs and loves to go to the dog park to play with them.

About: I had a wonderful cranky dog for most of my life. I trained him and learned how we worked together. I helped take care of him into his old age where I learned how to give him his diabetes injections and his anxiety medication. Recently, (post his passing) I have been volunteering at animal shelters taking care of a range of dogs. I have a philosophy with dogs that they deserve respect if they need space, love, or want to make a right instead of a left. When it’s their time, it’s their time. I will also respect your rules. I have no intention to let your dog sit on my couch if that’s not your thing! I’m here to make leaving your dog a little less worrisome, difficult, and sad. We all know how that can be, why not make it fun! I’m currently taking some time off from work to figure out my next career move. So I have loads of time and a very flexible schedule to care for the best dogs around.
About: I owned and adored many animals from the day I was born until I was 21 when my beloved golden retrievers passed away. It wasn't until my dad began walking and boarding dogs for Rover that I realized how much I wanted to help. He started at a local senior living home, where we met Clouseau, a dementia patient's dog we adopted. I also worked there for two years, serving food to the residents. Clouseau was the first of many dogs my dad took in for his Rover job. There were usually up to 7 dogs in the house at a time, including ours. I love dogs, so naturally, it was heaven to me! I assisted my dad with daily walks and took on one of his client's dogs. His name is Scout, and I've been walking and boarding him for three years since he was a puppy. I have consistently been a dependable dog walker for Scout and a trusted and reliable resource for pet-sitting services during other friends' vacations. I enjoy working with Scout so much that I started my Rover account to expand my knowledge of animals and spend my time aiding in their healthy, happy lives! I aim to treat every animal as my own since I don't own any pets. I guarantee safe, loving, and attentive care. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate early morning, lunch, and late afternoon walks. I am also available throughout the week to suit your pets' needs. My home is a secure apartment with ample space for pet care. I ensure their safety by using proper equipment and maintaining clean, well-supervised areas. While there isn't a fenced area for your pets, numerous safe spaces are available for walking and play. Rest assured, your pets will be in a secure and comfortable environment under my care.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and currently have three dogs and two cats of my own. Growing up, I gained a lot of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My mom is a veterinarian, so I’ve learned the importance of proper animal care, safety, and recognizing when something may not be right. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their routine, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I can often accommodate last-minute requests. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make it a priority to give each pet the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a lifelong pet owner with three dogs and two cats, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I always follow owners’ instructions carefully, maintain a clean and secure environment, and pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs and personality. Having grown up with a veterinarian as a parent, I’m comfortable recognizing signs of stress or illness and know the importance of responsible, attentive care. I’ll treat your pet as if they were my own.
