About: I am a reliable and trustworthy person, with 6 years of dog care experience. I taught my own dog how to sit, do paw, and roll-over as well as play dead. I was also my family’s pioneer in getting our dog by creating a very persuasive slideshow! I do not have many commitments so I will be free to take care of your pup at any time of the day and in whatever capacity necessary! I will be sure to follow all instructions provided and engage with your pup with great care. I will also leave everything how I found it and be flexible with any changes!

About: Hello! My name is Maddox. I’m available for all your pet sitting needs. I have always loved animals, and I have experience with senior pets and pets with disabilities or medical needs including diabetes. I’ve also worked with a wide variety of temperaments and personalities, from shy and timid to energetic and stubborn. You know what’s best for your pet, and I will work to address their unique needs within your specification. It's a privilege to look after your most special furry family members. I work from home part time so I have a very flexible schedule. I am available 9-5 every day, plus 5-8 on Mondays, Tuesdays, and weekends. I have a fenced yard and no other pets. I occasionally foster dogs, during which period I won't be available for boarding services. I have a spacious house, dog toys, and am in walking distance to a lovely trail and dog park to keep your pet entertained.

Liza was AMAZING! It was our first time using Rover. We have two dogs and a cat and we’re feeling nervous about leaving them. Liza was so good with them, cuddled them, and always left us with the best visit details with really cute pictures! I know we can’t wait to book with her again. Highly recommend!

Paul was amazing with Marley and obviously loves dogs. It was such a relief to find my new puppy such a wonderful person to scoop him up, take him for a walk, and give him lots of love. Paul made our day, and I am going to rebook him today. Thank you, Paul!!

About: Hello! My name is Sylvia. I have several years of experience pet sitting dogs, cats, birds, and rabbits, although I’m open to all kinds of animals. Since my family does not currently have an animal to keep us company, I jump at every opportunity to walk, feed, and spend time with any pet. I am currently home for the summer, so I’ll have plenty of time to play! I am also babysitting on the side, but my hours are very flexible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize making sure the dogs feel safe and comfortable with plenty of attention and exercise while the owners are away. I understand every pet has unique habits and personality, so I try to stick to the routine they know.

Big thanks to Natalia and Edward for taking such amazing care of our two cats! They were very attentive and communicative and made sure everything went smooth while we were away. I could tell my cats were happy and well-loved, which says a lot of the care Natalia and Edward provided. I really appreciated the updates—they kept me totally at ease. I am particularly thankful for the daily pictures and for flagging that one of the automatic feeders wasn't working properly. Reach out to them if you’re looking for trustworthy pet sitters.

About: THIS IS A NO-SMOKING HOUSEHOLD! I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your furry family members. I provide attentive care, daily walks, playtime, feeding, medication administration if needed, and plenty of love and companionship. I am patient, responsible, and committed to making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, or simply some companionship, I can accommodate their routine and provide regular updates while you’re away. My flexible schedule allows me to be available on weekdays, evenings, and weekends as needed. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs to ensure they feel secure and well cared for. In your home, I will respect your pet’s established schedule and environment while providing plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I am reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾

About: About Me: Hello, My name is Cassy and welcome to my profile! I'm 27 and have been around dogs and cats all my life. I live with my boyfriend and my cat, Link. Link likes most dogs. He is a little afraid of very large dogs with tons of fur, which is why I require a meet and greet every time to ensure that they get along! :) I also do overnight stays in your home, as an option! I would absolutely love to meet your very special child and help/care for him/her and spoil them! Please reach out to be regardless of my calendar, depending on where you are in relation to me I can work with you. My job is very flexible, I am the owner of a local company. Why I love dog sitting I was about 2 years old when I lived with my grandfather and he had 2 dogs, Brendel and Brittany. Brittany was a Collie and Brendel was a lovable mutt. Years passed and a lil pup named Sebastian came to us in the middle of the night scratching on the door. My dad let him in and he has been with us ever since that. I consider him to be my very best friend and I will always love and adore him. My experience administering medication If the owner is fine with me giving medicine to them. I am CPR/First Aid certified and have experience giving oral medications and injections.

She was punctual, informative and responsible. This was my first time using rover and I had a great experience thanks to Jazzel. I will definitely work with her in the future.

Jonathan is very friendly and nice. He came to meet and see puppies before the actual book to get to know them. He’s well taken care of them and dogs are very happy. He did a big favor for us. I truly recommend him as dog sitter.

Ilana was fantastic.Ilana took excellent care of my dog Duke while I was out of town for three days. She was reliable, professional, and clearly cared about Duke’s well-being. She handled feeding and walking him twice a day, and giving his daily medication without any issues. It gave me real peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend Ilana to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.

Melanie is a true gem! She is amazing with my fearful dog - patient, calm, and understands how to build trust at my dog’s pace. When I recently had a family emergency, she went above and beyond to care for my dog, giving me peace of mind during an incredibly stressful and difficult time. I’m so incredibly grateful for her kindness, reliability, and dedication. Highly recommend!
