Julia was so flexible with her schedule and truly seemed to care most about taking care of my dog. It’s easy to know when you meet an animal lover, and Julia is for sure an animal lover!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for several years through friends, family, and neighbors. I am comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, providing companionship, and following their regular feeding and care routines. I understand how important it is for pet owners to know their pets are safe and happy while they’re away, and I always treat every dog as if they were my own. I am dependable, responsible, and committed to providing attentive, loving care. As a college student home for summer with a flexible schedule, I have time throughout the week to provide attentive care for your pets. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and companionship. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I’m committed to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any special needs. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I provide a calm, clean, and supervised environment. I take the time to build trust with each pet, pay close attention to their behavior, and make sure they receive plenty of affection, exercise, and care. I also provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: I grew up raising puppies and have spent most of my life around big dogs. I also have experience with larger farm animals. I have 4 years of dog sitting experience since I became a working professional after college and 7 years of dog walking experience on various other apps. I have cared for and helped train puppies and have senior dog experience, including grooming, teeth brushing, nail clipping and more. I am looking to spend as much time outside with pets both for exercise and because I love animals. I am available weekdays and weekends, I work part time so will sometimes be away from the animal for 4 hours at a time. I am quick to learn about clients homes, very neat and always help my clients around the house. I think animals are most comfortable in their own environments so I like to stay with them rather than the other way around. If the pet parent has a yard, I make sure to play with the dog in the yard, otherwise I will take the dog on multiple walks through out the day!

Thien-Nha is absolutely wonderful and I’m so lucky to have found her. She’s reliable, responsive, and incredibly kind. Even my super shy kitty came out of hiding to say hello when Thien-Nha came over. I feel she really goes above and beyond for our pets and that is simply invaluable. Will definitely hire her again for our next trip.

About: We’ve fostered around 20 pups and volunteered at a senior center with our pup, bringing comfort and joy to others. These experiences shaped our calm, patient, and loving approach to every dog we care for, with 20+ repeat clients. We both work remotely from home, which means your dog will have constant supervision, companionship, and attention throughout the day. Dogs in care are never left alone for long periods and settle into a relaxed, home style, cozy routine. We focus on providing a calm, peaceful environment. Dogs are treated like family, enjoying neighborhood walks, playtime, naps, and quiet time. Only accepting calm, well mannered dogs who are comfortable sharing space and not prone to resource guarding, which helps maintain a safe and stress free home. The home is set up for comfort and calm, providing extra dog beds in multiple areas, cozy resting spots, and a variety of toys and enrichment items to keep dogs comfortable and engaged. Dogs are free to relax, play, nap, and move around at their own pace. Because we work remotely, pet care fits seamlessly into our daily routine and, with always being home, allows for frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. Plenty of grassy areas and walking paths near our residence, making outdoor time easy and enjoyable. The schedule is structured but flexible, adjusting to each dog’s energy level and normal routine. Available on weekdays and weekends, can accommodate extended stays, and aim to support last minute bookings when possible. Your dog’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. Our home is clean, calm, and well supervised, and the dogs are never left unattended. We follow each pet’s routine closely and introduce dogs thoughtfully to maintain a peaceful environment. We take dogs out for frequent potty breaks and daily walks, always with safety in mind. Crate if requested, but most dogs relax freely indoors with cozy spaces to rest. To help you feel confident and connected, we provide daily photo and video updates, and we're always happy to send additional photos, videos, or text updates on demand. You’ll never have to wonder how your pet is doing. We also recommend a meet & greet prior to boarding to ensure we’re a great fit and that your dog feels comfortable in our home.

Regina is amazing with our zoo. We have three larger dogs that each have different preferences for play. She makes sure all three get the attention they need and have some good play time. She even started helping us train one of the dogs to file her own nails! Regina also does walks with the dogs and they are always so excited to see her and have a great time. She is thoughtful, reliable, a great communicator, kind, and patient! I would definitely recommend Regina for any of your pet care needs!

About: I have been cat and dog sitting since I was 16! I have experience walking and pet sitting for neighbor’s, friend’s and family’s animals. I also grew up with dogs so I am very comfortable with all ages and sizes of animals! I have experience volunteering at the Wisconsin Humane Society from college so I have formal dog walking training! I just finished a contract working at Stanford and have some extra time in my day now. I am big on taking my daily walks outside and any pet can join me! Other than exercising I spend most of my day doing work and reading being a couch potato. I always try to work with the pets routine and stay flexible. I am big on making the pets comfortable (usually with treats and floor time) around me. I like to spend time with pets in their home before taking them on walks or letting them out. I can follow any rules set and any training that needs to be enforced as well.

About: Ive spent my entire young life with animals of all shapes and sizes from horses to birds to many different breeds of dogs and cats. I walked many neighborhood dogs all four years of middle school, worked at Bow Wow Meow for some time in highschool, and Smilin Dogs just a few years back. A few of the things i took care of while there; bathing and nail trims, caring for 20+ dogs at a time with light training, feeding on a schedule and putting dogs down for naps or bedtime. I have two puppies and a three year old dog at home, aside from that i have all the time in the world to care for your furry family members! I can help with basic training for dogs young and old, i believe no dog is past the point of learning a new trick or two. I can also follow any kind of schedule you set as far as feeding, walking, and naps/bedtime.

About: I’ve shared life with animals for 23 years—starting with my cat Chiquita (14 wonderful years), a rescued lab-beagle Hooke, and two rambunctious pups: Tiger (adopted 4 years ago) and Lou (3 years ago). Tiger lives confidently with epilepsy, so I’m well-versed in seizure monitoring, timed oral meds, and sub-cutaneous injections when needed. Right now my own dogs are staying abroad, so caring for your pets fills that furry void. With this hands-on medical experience, I’m equally comfortable looking after seniors, puppies, and other special-needs companions. Your dog receives one-family-at-a-time attention, calm positive-reinforcement handling, and daily photo updates. Standard neighborhood walks and yard play are included; beach days, trail hikes, or extended runs can be arranged for an additional fee to cover travel and time. I work locally but not on a strict 9-to-5 clock, so pets start their day with a 7 AM walk and breakfast, get a mid-day potty break (between 12-2 PM), and enjoy a long evening adventure after 5 PM. Weekends are wide open for beach runs, parks, or lazy couch snuggles. Boarding stays include one family movie night—dogs pick the film!—and lights-out around 10 PM. I never book more animals than I can give individual attention. Your pet’s wellbeing is my top priority. I host one family at a time in a clean, smoke-free house with a fully fenced yard, so dogs (and adventurous cats!) can sniff around outdoors under my watch whenever the weather’s nice. Inside, open space, and plants are pet-safe. For outings, I’m fully kitted out—seat-belt harnesses, water packs, etc. I ask for current vaccines before booking to keep everyone healthy. You’ll get time-stamped photos and quick replies throughout your pet’s stay, so you’re never left wondering how your best friend is doing.

About: I’ve been a compassionate counselor/ caretaker for human children, and am taking a break to get back into caring for animal children instead! I have taken care of friends/ neighbors cats and dogs for around 4 years, but never through Rover. I am hoping to increase my work via this platform! I recently moved to the area, therefore I have a very flexible schedule and can meet the needs of your animal with whatever schedule works best for you. I am open to staying where you and your animal live if needed! I am flexible to either take your pet to my home or to stay near/ at your current residence. I am a quick learner and will ensure that I follow all expectations and guidelines when spending time with your pet at the home or elsewhere!

About: I would love to take care of your dog or cat! I am a foster parent with the Peninsula Humane Society/SPCA who was recently laid off from a tech job, so I now have time to spend loving and caring for animals. I grew up with a dog (a Golden Retriever) and two cats. As an adult, I had a cat for 17 years who required daily shots, so I am comfortable and used to giving injections and pills. I recently adopted one of my foster kittens, who is very friendly and wants to play with all animals. I was featured in the Huffington Post for my foster work. Rover won't let me post the link, but I am happy to send it to you ask. I was recently laid off from a tech job, so I am available full time to care for your animal while I look for another job. I have a fenced yard that a dog could run around in. I have a 1 year old cat who loves cats and dogs and would love to play with yours, or I can keep him separate if your animal is not a fan.

Huei D was so incredibly amazing taking care of our finicky black 14 year old cat. She made friends so quickly and was always responsive and gave us updates throughout our trip. I honestly think Nyx is going to be disappointed when we come home to not get daily visits from her new friend. Recommend completely!

Genesis was great from the start kind, reliable, and easy to communicate with. My cat is usually very shy and keeps to himself with new people, so I was honestly surprised (in the best way) when he came out and greeted her right away and seemed completely comfortable. That really stood out to me. She was responsible, dependable, and communicative throughout, and everything went smoothly. I would absolutely book Genesis again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.
