About: I have had pets all my life growing up on a farm ranging from Guinea pigs to horses. I have trained hunting dogs for most of my childhood from puppies to senior. I previously worked as a pet sitter every summer. I have experience accommodating for dogs with illnesses, medications, or disabilities. I work remotely so I’m present and available throughout the day. Typically, I take my dog for a 20 min walk 3 times a day. With additional backyard time throwing the ball, training, or relaxing. I love my dog unconditionally and all I want is for pets to have long, happy, and healthy lives. I adopted our dog when he was 3 weeks old and have been through all the ups and downs of puppy care. I actively research healthy pet food brands and chews to ensure my dog is not consuming anything harmful. I keep a clean house so nothing is left on the ground or anywhere my dog can reach it. I have an active, outdoor lifestyle so exercise is built into our routines. My dog has me wrapped around his paw and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
About: I bring hands‑on, compassionate experience with pets of all ages, temperaments, and needs. Over the years, I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies learning the ropes to sweet senior pets who need a gentler pace. My approach is always the same: treat every animal like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, understood, and genuinely loved. I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I am constantly around animals having to commit myself to taking care of them. i’m comfortable around all dogs and am willing to learn and adapt to take care of your dogs specific needs. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk them, I will dedicate my time to loving your dog. I would love to be able to take them to a dog park where they can interact with other dogs while you’re away. I have a French bulldog of my own who is full of energy and curiosity. create a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I stick to their normal routines as closely as possible—regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and plenty of affection. I make sure they get consistent exercise, mental stimulation, and lots of one‑on‑one attention so they never feel lonely or stressed.
About: Hi! I’m a Marine Biology student who loves animals and enjoys caring for pets. I have experience caring for my grandparents’ cats, working with cats at an SPCA, and looking after dogs for family and friends. I know every pet has their own routine, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, litter box cleaning, or just spending time with them, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. If I’m house sitting, I’ll also take great care of your home. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m currently a full time college student with a flexible schedule trying to fill some extra time up. I’m available fully on weekends and most weekdays after 12 pm. I prioritize a secure and happy environment for your pet, making sure all safety requirements are met. Communication is also super important for me and I provide picture/video updates throughout the visit.
“Debbie was great with our pups while we were gone. She gave prompt updates and even cleaned up after one of our dogs upset tummies (sorry Debbie! ?). We hope to book with her again in the future. ❤️”

Although I do not have professional training experience, I will say I put all my patience into providing simple tasks that can better your dogs skills. Whether if it’s during walks, crate time, or a simple sit and stay, I will provide my best efforts for your pup to succeed in these things. Along with training, I always make sure to spend quality time with my puppies because we are what’s most important to them. I believe playtime is very important to keeping a dog young and healthy! In any clients home, I make sure to spend as much quality time with the clients dog to build a strong connection.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
