“We absolutely love Chrystal. She truly loves and takes great care of our big fur babies. We’ve booked sometimes at the last minute and she’s always been accommodating and willing to help. I love the pics and updates of our babies during each visit. It’s really nice to know we have a very dependable, trusting, and caring dog lover that we can trust to take care of them while we’re away.”

About: Since age 12, I've loved and cared for a lot of cats and dogs of all sizes and personalities.I have a soft heart for senior animals, and the playful energy for the little ones! I'm currently a student with a flexible schedule for walks and sitting for your pet. I'm available for house sitting, drop ins, and walks, during weekdays and weekends. When you trust your pets to me, you can rest easy knowing I'll care for them as if they're my own. Communication is key, and I'm happy to accommodate to your pet's schedule and routine, providing frequent updates to ease any anxiety.
“Liliana sent me pics and freq updates. When I expressed that Dewey might be hungry bc he didn't eat in the morning, she gave me well-timed and helpful suggestions for how to get him interested in his food. It is comforting to know you're leaving your furry friend with someone who genuinely adores them!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently care for my own large dogs and chickens, and I run a local pet service business in the Statesboro area. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for when you’re away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including large breeds. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, a calm companion, or someone dependable to stop by and check in, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and attentive to each animal’s unique needs. I’m happy to send photo updates and messages so you know your pet is doing great while you’re away. Whether it’s while you are at work or on vacation, I’m happy to help your 4 legged or 2 legged friends! I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits depending on your pet’s needs. Because I run a local pet care service, I’m used to planning my schedule around animals and making sure each client receives dependable, on-time care. During drop-in visits I make sure your pet has fresh food and water, a clean litter box or yard break, and plenty of attention based on their personality and needs. Some pets love playtime and interaction, while others prefer calm pets and attention , and I’m happy to adjust to what makes them most comfortable.
About: I have cared for different animals over the last 9 years or so. I have cared for dogs, cats, pigs and chickens and love doing so! I currently homeschool Monday through Thursday and also clean a house once a week. With that being said, I normally have a pretty flexible schedule. I am able to go feed and water the animals and spend time with them. I can send pictures of the animals to the owners and give them peace knowing their animals are being loved and cared for.
“Cheryl watched our cat while we left her alone for the first time, and she gave us peace of mind while we were away. I hope she’s available to watch her again during our next trip!”


About: I've had animal experience as long as I can remember. I've had a ton of pets growing up, from ferrets, to fish, to cats, and of course dogs. I had to take care of all of them and all of the responsibilities in taking care of a pet. Animals make me a happier and better person. One day I plan on owning and operating my own pet day care, where you can bring any animal you'd like and myself and my crew will take care of them Every morning when I wake up, the first thing I do is take care of my pet; I let my dogs out and I feed them. They go out multiple times a day and get fed twice a day. I will provide your pet with as much outside time as needed. If you have a crate and they consider their crate as their safe space, I will be more than happy to set it up in my home.
About: I have grown up with dogs all of my life, like most people. However, I have learned to be patient with them yet stern. I used to pet sit all over my neighborhood because they all knew me as the dog whisperer. I take care of their needs while their owners are busy with work or are enjoying a much needed vacation. During the summer I do not work since I am a teacher and I know many families like to go out of town to enjoy their time. That is why I do not mind opening my time and home to other pets so the owners do not have to worry about their pets while they are away. I have a fenced in yard that dogs can run around in. There is even a dog park a mile from my house if the owner wants them to have more freedom. If for some reason, other pets do not get along with my cat, I have plenty of bedrooms and I would rotate the animals being able to roam the house.
About: Hi I’m a college student who loves animals and especially dogs. I grew up with dogs and I actually have my own pup named Shelby! She is a gorgeous mixed who I adopted from the pound. We love to spend time playing and training together! It helps keep us both stimulated ☺️. Me and my cat Greyson love to cuddle and he loves to play tag with his sister sometimes! I have been pet sitting since the age 10 and I have dealt with small , big, young and the old dogs. I’m able to make connections with any type of dog. I have dealt with dogs with special diets and needs. I love all dogs equally and would love to get to know your babies each. I do have doggy treats and toys but I would love to have any future friends bring their own. I also have experience working for a doggie day camp named pet paradise where I was taught and trained to understand dog and cat behavior so trust that your furry friends are in the best care! I currently have an open schedule and am home most days so I have complete flexibility to spend time and play with your furry friends! I have a one active friendly dog who loves to play and chase so if you are comfortable she is looking for a play date! I love to go on long walks and trips for treats! For my cats it depends on there comfortable level but for mines we do tons of chase play and cuddles!
“Hannah was absolutely wonderful! She communicated well and went above and beyond to make sure our kitties (and house) were cared for. Bonus- she also takes great photos :) We will definitely use Hannah again for future rover requests. Thank you, Hannah!!”

“Helene showed up on time and took great care of our family which consists of cats and dogs. The drop in visit gave our family the break and attention they needed. I have used Helene a few times and I will continue to use her.”
About: I have 2 pets of my own. A dog and a cat and I love them with my whole heart. 3 years ago I started watching my neighbors large size dogs and fell in love with it.

I am free Monday - Friday and on the weekends as well! I currently have a dog and cat that live with me. As for watching my neighbors dogs I have had them in their crates because that’s how the owner had them. I now live in Statesboro full time and sadly they moved away and I do not watch their dogs anymore.
About: With over 10 years of experience caring for our furry-companions, I guarantee that each pet feels happy, secure, and right at home. As a pet owner, I know how important it is to know that our pets are comfortable, fed, and cared for when we are away! Beyond our furry friends, I have over 5 years of experience in reptile care including Bearded Dragons, Leopard Geckos, and Snakes! I work-full time, so my boarding availability is limited to Friday-Sunday. This gives you an opportunity to plan the perfect weekend getaway! During the week, I am more than happy to provide services after 5pm. As a pet owner myself, safety is a top priority. Our home is complete with a fenced-in yard and plenty of windows for your pet to sun bathe in! For those with outgoing pets, we have a pup who loves friends! Our kitten is shy, but she never passes the opportunity to share her toys!
About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. I have some experience in training dogs and puppies. And my family has trusted me numerous of times to watch after and bathe their pets. Pet sitting fits in my schedule as I’m looking for work right now, I’ll be able to come by and take the time your pet needs to insure he or she is safe and went outside. In my home my dogs are on leashes when outside and walked more than I can count. I let them free roam inside until it’s feeding time. Once it’s feeding time they go to their designated areas and eat. If you select me for my services I’ll make sure to follow your rules you have in place and treat your pet as one of my own.

About: I’ve grew up with dogs, cats, birds.. you name it. I love all animals! That’s why this app is a perfect side job for me. 😊 (I also have also volunteered at an animal shelter for a bit when I was in high school). When I was younger me and my family raised German Sheppards and I would help out with taking care of them and getting them wormed, bathed, etc. I am currently only doing door dash right now, and occasionally taking care of my grandmother who is battling cancer, so I have a lot of down time! I can follow any special instructions you may have for me about your pet. 😊 I will make sure they are crated if need be, or if they have a special diet, I will make sure they get that!
