About: I am a dog mom of a rescue Yorkie for the last 6 years. I have walked, done drop ins, and dog sat many other dogs. I understand that all pets are unique and require individual care. Happy to help on weekends or weekdays after my 9-5. I work a in hybrid model so let me know what you’re looking for and we can see if we can work something out! I have one small dog that gets along great with other dogs. I have a good sized yard and am very close to multiple parks.
About: I’m the guy in a crowd your dog will want to meet. I grew up with dogs and want them to feel as comfortable with me as they are at home with you. I’m available most days and times, and with sufficient notice and proximity, can be flexible for your pet care needs. Overnight and boarding is negotiable. I live in a dog-friendly community with a park across the street. No other pets live in my home, so your fur baby will feel safe and secure. Your pet will get a playdate and exercise during our visit with me.
About: I’ve always loved spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away! I have experience cat-sitting and regularly caring for my roommate’s cat when she’s out of town. I enjoy playing with him, giving him plenty of cuddles and attention, and keeping him entertained—even turning on the TV so he can watch bugs jumping around! I’ve also helped walk and look after my neighbors’ dogs, spending time playing with them and keeping them company. Whether it’s going for a walk, having a little playtime, giving lots of affection, or simply hanging out together, I love making sure pets get the attention and companionship they need. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and making them feel comfortable and loved. Hi my schedule is very flexible! I am able to make time to care for your pets anytime! I am also available on weekends. Please let me know what works best for you. I’d be happy to care for pets in their home by keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I can provide fresh food and water, playtime, walks, cuddles, and plenty of companionship. I’ll also make sure their space stays clean and comfortable and give them lots of love and attention while their owner is away.
“We had an emergency and needed a last minute walk on a Saturday afternoon. Britney replied right away and was flexible and very communicative. She was great with our pups and I felt that I could trust her. One of our dogs has been reactive on the leash lately and she was confident it wouldn’t be a problem for her. Would totally recommend and have her again!”

About: I’ve been an owner and cared for pets from a very young age. My first ‘jobs’ as a young kid were walking family members’ dogs and pet sitting for them. Since then I’ve loved doing this for friends and hoping to do more! I am looking to house sit and do drop-in care, but not currently looking to host pets in my space as I have 3 cats and my landlord does not allow dogs in the apartment. I'm currently working full time on a hybrid schedule. I go to the office 3 days a week and the other two days are spent at home when I am remote. On the weekends, my schedule is mostly flexible unless I have plans to attend to. I am a loving pet owner who is very attentive to my pets’ needs. I am happy to meet all of your pet care needs, as dictated by you. I am looking to house sit and do drop-in care, but not currently looking to host pets in my space as I have 3 cats and my landlord does not allow dogs in the apartment.
About: My unique approach to pet sitting is centered around personalized care and a genuine passion for animals. Unlike other pet sitters, I prioritize building strong connections with both pets and their owners, ensuring open communication and peace of mind. My work consists of experience not only adept at handling various pet needs but also trained in specialized areas such as basic puppy training. I intend to go above and beyond to create a safe, nurturing environment that fosters happiness and well-being for your beloved furry companions. In my own routine, pet care holds a cherished place, intertwining seamlessly with my daily and weekly activities. Each morning begins with a loving embrace and a playful romp with my furry friend, setting a joyful tone for the day ahead. Throughout the week, dedicated time slots are carved out for walks, grooming sessions, and engaging playtime, ensuring my pet's physical and emotional needs are met. Whether it's a midday cuddle break or an evening stroll under the starlit sky, every moment spent together strengthens our bond and brings immeasurable joy to both of our lives. In both my home and my clients' homes, pet care revolves around creating a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment for our furry companions. This entails adhering to a structured routine tailored to the specific needs and preferences of each pet. For pets in my home, I ensure they have designated spaces for rest, play, and nourishment. Regular exercise, interactive play sessions, and mental stimulation are integrated into their daily schedule to promote physical health and mental well-being. When caring for pets in clients' homes, I prioritize maintaining a sense of familiarity and routine. I adhere closely to the owners' instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special requirements or medications. Additionally, I provide companionship, affection, and personalized attention to alleviate any stress or anxiety the pet may experience in the absence of their owners. Overall, whether in my home or a client's home, my approach to pet care is rooted in empathy, responsibility, and a genuine love for animals, ensuring that every pet feels cherished, safe, and content under my care.
“Haowen has been an INCREDIBLE help! He was very thorough in our initial meet and greet to understand my dog and her needs, taking extra time to do commands and let her feel him out. My bulldog has taken to him right away, and he has been very patient as she adjusts to my work schedule. He is quick to respond, gives updates about every walk, and eases my mind about leaving my girl in his care while away. Haowen is very professional and kind and I am lucky to have him as my walker now on a weekly cadence !”
About: I've cared for dogs for as long as I can remember! I have experience with both large and small dogs and even dogs who need some extra attention. I worked in a local dog store for a few years in high school so I have a few tricks up my sleeve! I can truly say I find joy in caring for and entertaining your pets when you can't be there for them! I’m currently in a career switch and looking to make some extra cash while I build my digital portfolio. Therefore, I am very flexible and can work with you to find a plan that fits for both of us! I am very respectful of owners in-house routines for their doggos. I like to make sure to follow feeding/walking schedules to ensure comfort for both owners and their furry friends.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Winthrop
Jake is a really great dog walker! He is so communicative and kind and really cares about making sure my dog is able to get out and get some exercise without forcing her to do anything because she can be a bit nervous. She is such a fan of him and loves the days he comes over to take her out!
When my flight was delayed, Mia came through last minute to help with multiple walks while I was away. She had great communication, took him on nice long walks, sent lots of photos, and even went the extra mile to clean his bowls during feeding. I really appreciated the extra care and felt great knowing he was in good hands!
We had an emergency and needed a last minute walk on a Saturday afternoon. Britney replied right away and was flexible and very communicative. She was great with our pups and I felt that I could trust her. One of our dogs has been reactive on the leash lately and she was confident it wouldn’t be a problem for her. Would totally recommend and have her again!
We had such a wonderful experience with Jennifer. She took amazing care of our dog and was so thoughtful and attentive the entire time. You can really tell how much she cares about the animals she works with. I especially appreciated all of the updates and pictures. they made us feel so relaxed and reassured knowing Pancakes was in such good hands. Our dog clearly loved her, and it meant so much to know she was being cared for by someone so kind and compassionate. We’re incredibly grateful and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy, loving care for their pet!

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
