“Samantha has been great to work with. She is very responsive and reliable. Molly has some specific behavior needs and I felt reassured that she would be in good hands. Thank you!”


“Kamren took INCREDIBLE care of Luna!! He is amazing at getting her energy out, plays with her, and takes lots of great pictures. I am so thrilled with his care, and Luna is too! Very kind individual and wonderful with pets. Luna is *spoiled* and he gives her the attention she needs so by the time I come home from work she's not bouncing off the walls. I've already rebooked! Thank you, Kamren!!”


“Loved the recording of the peeing and pooping. Thanks much. On time and dogs got their full walks and the walker was very calm when one of our dogs growled getting her harness on.”


“Peggy was wonderful and helped us out on a day we had a jam and needed our pup walked. She was very professional and attentive to our active dog. We will be using her again”


“Brittani was the best dog walker ever! She drove from 20 minutes away and spent extra time with our girl 😭 she is a rockstar, you better book with her!!!”


About: Ive been a dog lover as long as I can remember, and as soon as I turned 18 I started working at a dog daycare/boarding facility. It was a blast! I loved getting to know every dog individually and watch them grow. After a few years I was ready to find more of a career with dogs so I switched over to dog grooming. I’ve been grooming professionally for the last 3 years and love showing dogs that grooming doesn’t have to be a scary thing. Keeping the pets safe and happy is always my top priority when working with them in any situation. I treat every pet like they are my own! Recently became a stay at home mom so my days are very open. I still do some grooming at peoples homes but it isn’t anything consistent so I am very flexible. I have experience using all different types of collars and leashes depending on each dogs needs. Safety will always be a top priority when taking dogs off of your property for walks and if their collars/harnesses are not secure I will have a slip lead on hand that can be used as a backup in case they slip their leads. I will also continue any training you are doing with your dog for loose leash walking/reactivity to make sure there is no going backwards! I also am very experienced going through doors/gates while dogs try to get through so no escapes on my watch!

“Amanda was great. She sent pictures every day and took good care of my three large dogs, including nice long walks. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again.”


About: My friends have relied on me to take care of their dogs/puppies trusting me with their furry babies. I can handle hyper to mellow dogs, I am very active but also laid back depending on the mood of your furry baby. I have been taking care of my own baby for 5 years adopted at the shelter, and oh boy I have learned so much from him (his name is Jarvis the muscular pitbull). I have a huge passion for dogs/puppies and will treat them like my own! If you have any questions, feel free to chat with me :) I am a graduate student and currently 8 months pregnant looking for extra income until maternity leave. I do have a part-time job but I will always find a way to hangout with your furry friend knowing the rewarding feeling when being around them. I am usually free Tuesday-Thursday any time of the day :) I have thought to be respectful as well as respectable to their things. I am very honest and responsible with everything I do. Since I still live with my parents, I am open to service your furry baby at your home giving them comfort and care.

About: I love all animals. I don’t mind the challenge of pets that are puppies or seniors or pets with behaviors or medical conditions. I am open to petsitting other animals Fish, hamsters, snakes, goats, donkeys, sugar gliders, lizards, ect. I will spoil them all. I work as a paraeducator. I am contracted to work 8:30-4:00, I have a hour lunch break 11:45-12:45, M-F. (Sept-June) open schedule for June-August :) Due to my primary position I have had many background checks and passed I feed, clean up after, and play/walk/training. Also, water plants,vacuum, & get mail.

About: I have personally had many dogs over the years, and that has given me great experience with them. I have had both large and small dogs of my own. Over the years I have dog sat friends and family's animals countless times. I also have good experience walking dogs, from my own animals, to friends and family's dogs, and volunteering to walk dog at the local humane society. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, and am comfortable with little Chihuahua to big Alaskan Malamutes. I do not mind the slobber or cleaning up after them, all doggies I love. I don't have any breed preferences, all types of dogs are welcomed. I am patient and can handle a rowdy bunch of pups too. As a college student on summer break, I have plenty of free time to dedicate to caring for your pets and making sure they feel loved and comfortable. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I’m flexible and available to fit their routine. With no strict schedule tying me down, I can give your pets the attention they deserve—whether they need active engagement, medication management, or just some extra cuddles. I’m ready to be their new best friend while you’re away! Providing a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment is my top priority when caring for pets. In my home, I ensure a clean, pet-friendly space where animals can feel secure and loved. Whether they need a quiet corner to relax or plenty of room to play, I adapt to their needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their routines and surroundings, maintaining a familiar and reassuring atmosphere. I take extra precautions with doors, gates, and feeding schedules to ensure their safety, and I always follow specific care instructions provided by owners. My goal is to build trust—with both pets and their humans—so they feel confident knowing their furry friends are in good hands.

About: I have had animals my whole life, particularly cats and dogs. I am comfortable working with medium and large breed dogs, high energy pets, senior animals, or pets with medical needs. I have helped family and neighbors care for their fur babies and would love the opportunity to help others! I specialize in caring for senior/special needs pets. I had two cats with varying degrees of kidney disease which required special diets and constant monitoring. They made frequent messes so I'm not afraid to clean up pet accidents. I'm happy to help any animals that need some extra care. I am available most weekends and holidays to care for your pet. Dogs staying at my house get potty breaks as often as possible. There will be lots of playtime and naps for both dogs and cats throughout the day. Dog walks will take place when the weather is decent and typically in the afternoon/evening. If I go out for errands, dogs are expected to stay in a crate (exceptions are considered. Please reach out for more details). Any animal that stays with us will be treated like family. Meet and greets are highly recommend for all services to make sure owner(s), sitter, and animals feel comfortable with one another. Dog Boarding/Day Care: I have a large fenced yard and three high energy pups that would enjoy having new friends to play with. I have lots of toys from stuffed to plastic to rope toys to keep them entertained. Dogs should be crate trained in case I need to leave for an errand (exceptions are considered. Please reach out for more details). Dogs must be okay around cats as they may interact with them when they are in the house. Dogs MUST be okay around children as I have a toddler (the child will never be alone with the dog). Dog Walking: We can walk around the neighborhood or go to a park. I will NEVER go to a dog park. I will only bring my dogs along for a walk if approved by the owner. Vaccines: All animals that enter my home must be up-to-date on vaccines. Dogs MUST have rabies and bordetella (kennel cough) vaccines. Owners must provide vaccination records for confirmation. All animals must be treated for fleas and ticks (as a precaution). This is a year-round requirement. I highly recommend Elanco K9 Advantix II for dogs. If needed, I can provide the medicine and apply to the pet for an additional cost (please reach out for more details). Drop Ins: I'm happy to stay for as short or long as needed to take care of the pet (feed, water, potty break, scoop litter box, administer medicine, etc.) and give them attention.

About: I have been working with dogs since i was 7, growing up with 5 german shepherds i have done puppy training to senior dog care. I love working with animals and I always give my all to the animals and make sure their needs are met ( even the gross stuff.) I can do grooming too like nail-trimming, brushing and bathing. I am also experienced with taking care of cats and fulfilling their needs. My schedule is very flexible. I am available most times you need. I have a job were i work 3-7 most days and 12-7 Monday and Tuesday. I have house sat for many people. I can do whatever you need from me, if you want update pictures. I can do it. Need me to give them medicine I can. need me to crate them I can. An emergency happens and they need to go to the vet I can drive them or call the vet.

About: Hi! Since I’m new to Rover, I appreciate you considering to book with me! As a pet owner (I have a 4 year old Chihuahua mix!), I understand the stress knowing someone else is taking care of your beloved pets so I’ll always treat your pet as if they’re my own! Our pets are family and I can guarantee your pets are in good hands with me. I have experience taking care of dogs and cats from babies to ill/elderly pets. I’m happy to do basic training when needed. I am currently in between jobs, so have plenty of time and flexibility to take care of pets! Most days and times will work great. I promise to follow all rules set by owners, as I understand how important it is to keep consistency for your pets. I also will always try leave a space better than I found it.

About: I have taken care of animals all my life. I have trained, groomed, bathed, and even helped birth puppies as well. When we’ve friends leave out of town I am always the one to watch them. I am currently working a full time job but I always have Mondays and Tuesdays off. I’m very active and I love helping others with their animals. I have a fenced yard, a doggy pool for the water dogs(mine is) I also have two lovely dogs that love playing with others. And I have a cat but he loves other dogs as long as they don’t chase him. I also help with training, grooming, bathing and if you are an expecting doggy parent I can help with that too

“Taya provided excellent and fabulous care. She was enthusiastic and was a pleasure to work with. Indy was well taken care of and I know he enjoyed his time with her. I highly recommended her!”


About: From fancy dogs with special diet and grooming regimens to skrungle cats who eat trash exclusively, I've run the gamut when it comes to pet care. I'm also experienced with giving meds to both dogs and cats via pill, liquid, or injection. I am currently enrolled in school, but I'm only a part-time student (3 hours per day) so I have basically the whole day to hang out with your animals. Creating an accommodating environment for animals is important as the person caring for them to keep things safe and comfortable for everyone. Abiding by set routines and following house rules is something I'm personally big on. I also have a fenced in back yard at my house for short term stays if needed.


“Andrea took great care of Ace and kept me up informed on how we was doing. Very friendly and professional, would definitely reccomend her to watch your pet!”


“I had ankle surgery 9 months ago and haven’t healed as quickly as I should have, as much as I’d love to take my dog out for long walks myself I’ve been instructed by my doctors not to for a while. That’s why we’ve had to search for outside resources and I’m glad I did! This was my very first time with a dog walker for my recently-ish adopted dog so I didn’t know what to expect, but it was a great experience. Enrique was awesome from start to finish, honestly couldn’t have gone any better. He was easy to communicate with, helpful, made it simple to book him through the app, prepared, updated me throughout the walk, seamless handoff of my pup back to me. My sweet dog doesn’t always trust people so I was anxious of how she would do being led off by a stranger, but she did good and needed the exercise, tried her out for a great nights sleep. I will definitely be reaching out to Enrique in the future, don’t hesitate on trusting him with your fur babies!”
