“Deborah is awesome. My Frenchie puppy loves her and she is consistent and reliable. Communication is easy and she replies back quickly as well. I would highly recommend her :)”


About: I have had and cared for pets my entire life. Highly experienced with dogs and cats from puppy/kittens to seniors. I am comfortable enough with all animals that with some instruction I can care for anything. Experience in administering medication, even with cats. Patient with all animal personalities. I am very detail oriented and thorough. Reliable and great with instructions. I love animals and since semi-retiring I thought it would be nice to spend time caring for them when owners are on vacation or just need a little extra help. I practice reward based motivation. Semi-retired with plenty of time to play with and care for your animals. Happy to care for in home or take for walks. I can do multiple drop-ins a day. I am very good with instructions and will abide by any house rules and needs required for your pet. Experience house and pet sitting prior to joining Rover.

About: I have taken care of animals for friends and family for years! I love taking care of dogs and cats, and giving them extra love. I’m temporarily unemployed (actively looking for a job) so I have all the availability in the world. Once I have a new position, I’ll readjust! I’m a very adaptable person who love rules and information, I’ll always work closely with you to ensure your fur babies’ have the consistency needed.

“Leah was so great with my two cats! I went out of town for two weeks, and she was very attentive and caring while I was gone. One of my cats has new health issues, but I never worried about them. She was always great about sending photos and updates every day, so I could see what they were up to as well. I'd definitely have her watch my cats again, and would definitely recommend her!”


About: I’m usually the first person my family calls when they need someone to care for their cutie pets while they’re away. As a grad student and pet owner myself, I understand the emotional support that animals can provide! Pets are family members and I understand what it takes to look after family. I send daily photo updates and report back any information requested. I have experience maintaining training schedules for puppies. I’m diligent at following care plans and requests. Overall, I truly to enjoy connecting with animals and their owners alike! Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and considering me. I’m currently working towards my graduate degree and have a flexible daily schedule. I am able to stop by routinely (in between classes or internship commitments) to take care of your pet! I am available most weekends and weekdays. My schedule is subject to change in a few weeks with the start of a new semester. My goal is to continue the quality of care that your pet is used to. I want to reduce the amount of stress they might experience in the absence of their loving owner(s)! Keeping their routine as similar as possible is key. Meal times, walk times, crate/no crate, on/off furniture, treats, etc. are all things I try to attend to. I am open to specific requests your pet might need!

About: I’d describe myself as a professional dog walker as I have two of my own, as well as grown up taking care of dogs in all age/size ranges! I’d love to meet up with the pups and help them get some good exercise. I’m currently working part-time and have been looking for good ways to get active. My love for dogs is keeping me in shape! I have lots of free time to put towards helping other dog owners in need. My dogs are taken on walks or to the dog park at least once a day! They are also great with other dogs if doggy play dates are something your dog would enjoy! Or not, for the older more calm dogs who just need to get their steps in!

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for over 25 years and I wouldn’t have it any other way! I currently have four cats, including one with chronic kidney disease and another who has idiopathic cystitis. So when it comes to special needs, medications, and keeping a close eye on health, I’ve got plenty of hands on experience. I also have a rescue dog who is reactive, which has given me firsthand experience with patience, understanding behavior, and creating a safe, calming environment. In addition to my cats and dog, I also have a crested gecko and maintain both a 10 gallon and a 40 gallon fish tank. I understand the unique needs of reptiles and aquatic life, including habitat maintenance, feeding schedules, and environmental monitoring. If needed, I am able to clean fish tanks, perform water changes, and ensure your reptiles or fish stay healthy while you’re away. Just let me know in advance if there will be any other animals that need care, so I can be fully prepared! I know firsthand how nerve wracking it can be to trust someone else with your pets. That’s why I treat every pet with the same level of love, attentiveness, and kindness as my own. Whether your pet needs a playful buddy, a calm companion, or someone to keep their routine just right, you can count on me. Your pets will be safe, loved, and spoiled while you’re away! I currently work four days a week and have a flexible schedule. With a bit of notice, I can usually adjust to make most days or times work. I don’t work weekends, so I’m generally available then as well. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved, whether they’re in my home or their own. At home, my pets thrive on a routine, so I understand how important it is to stick to the schedule they know. I will follow instructions closely and always make sure your pets get lots of attention, playtime, and cuddles!

“It was an absolute pleasure to have Katherine taking care of our cats and our house! She is very organized, prompt, proactive, thoughtful, and kind. Katherine has fantastic animal intuition and quickly figured out how to make our two cats comfortable. We could tell that she quickly won over our shy cat by the wonderful pictures and videos that she sent us throughout our vacation. Katherine communicated exceptionally well: before, during, and after her stay. And from the pictures and videos, it was pretty clear that the cats were enjoying being with her and enjoying life in general, which gave us great peace of mind. She even figured out a way to easily give one of our cats his medication – a process that I have now adopted! Katherine left the house clean and tidy. We whole-heartedly recommend Katherine!”

About: I’ve taken care of fur babies for as long as I can remember. I have also volunteered at the shelter. I currently have 1 dog and 7 cats of my own that I rescued and adore. Animals have a special place in my heart. I currently work a full time job but now that my children are grown I have evening time Monday-Friday after 5:00pm and every weekend open. I can provide any and all necessary care for your pet. Feeding/watering, litter cleaning, play time, walks and administering medication if needed. I would care for them as if they were my own.

About: I’ve had dogs anywhere from Springer Spaniels to Cane Corsos, and I absolutely adore every breed. My experience doesn’t end with dogs; I have taken care of tortoises, bunnies, and guinea pigs, too! I know how to give medication, and of course all the necessities. I have also taken care of dogs with disabilities, and injuries. I know how to wrap stitched wounds, as well as change gauze, and apply ointments the correct way! I am here to help and would love to meet y’all’s pups! I have many pets at home, so I am very used to what an animal needs! I am aware of their schedule, and how often most pets need to be taken outside, for walks, or fed. I start with lots of love! I will, of course, greet any dog with some pets, then go into whatever service is booked! I am very enthusiastic, and patient with pets.

About: I have been house sitting and taking care of pets throughout high school and college. I have two cats of my own. I treat any pet as if it is my own when watching them! I am free a lot of the time and can work around many different schedules. I am easy to work with and am very flexible! I play with my own cats every chance I get and make sure they have everything they could need or want. I do this with the pets I watch as well because that’s how I would want my cats taken care of!


About: Dogs are a marvelous source of companionship. I show them compassion and are attentive to their needs. I enjoy running with dogs, playing fetch, holding, and petting dogs. I have experience in playing with dogs, grooming, bathing, feeding, and walking dogs. While growing as a young child, my dad brought home various dogs at sundry times. I was the dog's main caregiver. My mother eventually would release the dogs because she did not like them, but I was able to build a solid experience and bond with them before she did. In Jamaica where my parents were born, their are many outdoor dogs roaming the streets. I easily befriend them and usually play with them and feed them. My schedule is flexible with me usually being available in the morning. If the price for my service is not suitable for you, I am open for negotiation. Call or text me. God bless you and your family.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, currently have an Australian shepherd named Birdie who i love with all my heart. I know how important it is for dogs to be able to get that energy out with a nice walk. Im available basically whenever just need a days notice. I typically prefer mornings most days. But im not opposed to other types of scheduling! Just let me know! Im just available for walks. You can definitely trust me with your dog. I know how important dogs are to a family. My dog is like my child.

“Lauren took excellent care of our pets during a recent trip. She was timely, had great communication, and made sure she knew all of the care details in advance. She even took in all of our packages while we were away! Definitely would re-book next time we need a sitter!”
