Cat Sitting in Akins Corner

“Dawn is great. She is easy to communicate with and always gives me updates along with pictures of my kitty. My kitty loves her and I always feel comfortable when Dawn is visiting my kitty.”

About: I am a mature adult and I have just started taking care of others pets. I have had dogs my entire adult life. I rescued Great Danes for a while as well as owing my own. I’ve had small to large dogs. Puppies & geriatric. I am skilled at giving meds. Most importantly, I want to just love your pups the way you would while you are out of town. I work from home so I am here all the time. If I do run errands I have cameras to check on the dogs while I’m gone. I am also available for drop ins for pets that are close to my home. I have a fenced yard. We have a great neighborhood to walk in. I recently lost my last Great Dane. I haven’t gotten another yet. My dogs have always slept in the bed with me. I will honor the owners requests. Most of the time I move their bed from room to room wherever I am going to be so they are with me. I have an area set up for food & water

“Very thankful for Angela’s care. It has made life better. For humans and animals.”

“Shea was awesome! My dog loved her and took to her right away. Shea showed up when she said she would and sent lots of pics of our baby🥰. I would definitely recommend her!!”

About: I understand the patience and determination required when handling and taking care of dogs and cats. Some animals require minimal attention and supervision while others need constant attention. I will happily tune to whatever needs the animal may or may not have. I’m in between jobs at the moment, and even after getting a job I would still love to help out on weekends and whenever I can. While in your home I will respect every guideline provided while also respecting the boundaries a guest should have when in someone else’s home. If your pet makes a mess I will clean it, among making sure they are behaving well. While there are times where pets might not listen or might be difficult, it’s understandable when they have so much going on in their little worlds.

“Genevieve was so wonderful to work with! This is my second time using Rover to find someone to let our pup out a few times a day while we were on vacation. My experience was wonderful this time! She showed up on time with each drop-in and would leave sweet detailed messages about her time with our fur baby. I will definitely be calling her again the next time we need someone to take care of our pup while we’re away! If you’re searching and have landed on this review… she’s the one! Contact her! Guarantee you’ll be as happy as I am!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs (and all kinds of pets!) for as long as I can remember. Growing up surrounded by animals and pet sitting for families in my community has given me years of hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. From playful puppies to senior sweethearts, I’ve truly seen it all—and I love every minute of it. What sets me apart is not just my experience, but the genuine joy I find in building trust with animals and giving them personalized, loving care. Dogs are my favorite animals, and getting to care for them professionally feels like a dream come true. I'm patient, dependable, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’ve also cared for guinea pigs, fish, birds, and bunnies—so I’m happy to help with your non-canine companions too! Whether you’re heading out of town or just need an extra hand, you can count on me to keep your pets happy, safe, and loved. I'm a college student who has 2 full days of class on Tuesdays and Thursdays (8:00am-5:00pm), 2 half days of class on Mondays and Wednesdays (8:00am-12:00pm OR 1:00pm-5:00pm), and Friday off! When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it my mission to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. Whether it’s playtime in the yard, peaceful walks around the neighborhood, or just snuggling up on the couch, I give each pet the attention, affection, and comfort they need while their family is away. I follow all feeding schedules closely and make sure they’re eating, drinking, and taking any necessary medications on time. I’m also happy to send photo or video updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I’ve been dog sitting since high school, providing walks, feeding, and grooming for dogs. I currently live with an English Mastiff, whom I occasionally care for by feeding him and taking him on walks. I currently work part-time, giving me a flexible schedule to accommodate pet care needs. I’m available for bookings on both weekdays and weekends, including daily walks. I am highly schedule-oriented and prioritize ensuring pets feel comfortable and safe. I monitor their well-being closely, and if I notice any signs of discomfort, I promptly notify the owners. If a pet makes a mess, I clean it up and inform the owners.

“Kristen came to my house to check in on my two cats while I was out of town. My very independent cat warmed up to her very well, and she kept our boxes clean and did everything single thing I asked for! She had great communication as well. Thanks!”

About: I have had experience with both senior animals and puppies and kittens! I know how to care for, train, and be patient with animals! I am very flexible and caring! I work part time, but typically early in the mornings! I am off every weekend so I can take care of all your weekend needs! In my home, I walk my dog out on a leash or watch her outside, she does not run away. I will care for your animal however you want or need!

“Very reliable and sends the cutest pictures of my puppies on her check ins!”

“The meet-n-greet with Cayleigh went very well, and all requirements of the visit with the dogs were discussed. She followed up with a good visit where all requirements were met with no additional information needed. Good Job.”

About: I have been dog sitting since i was 15. whether it was my friends, neighbors, family, i have dog sat for long or short periods of time. sometimes it has just been feeding and letting them out for a quick minute, a full weekend or week, or even 3 full months. i have also watched anywhere from 1-6 dogs at a time. i am very experienced and have had animals since i was born, so i’ve grown up around them and get along with them very well. i am a huge animal lover, so i make sure to give them lots of love and attention, especially because i know they are already in distress with their owner being gone. please feel free to reach out to me, and i have multiple references as well!! i do have kind of a chaotic schedule at the moment. however, i am an early riser so i would have plenty of time to get them the attention they need that morning (if needed) and would make sure i can attend to them in a timely manner! if i am needed to stay the night, that is totally fine with me. the dogs can sleep wherever you prefer or what they are used to, even with me, so that they are comfortable. i care for them based off of what you tell me they are used to, or how you would like, and make that work with my schedule. even if i am not needed to stay the night, i still can stay over there for a few hours to make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention.

About: I have always been an animal lover and had pets all my life. I have rescued and fostered many dogs and have also been a foster fail a few times because I became so attached. I am down to one pup now named Charlie. He is my pride and joy and he is spoiled rotten. I have volunteered at the Humane Society , been a pet sitter for many of my friends in the past. So I decided why not do it as a job and then I can be around them a lot more. So that's what I am doing. I have lots of references that will vouch that I indeed do love animals. I am retired since 2009 and do work a very part-time job. So I can give your fur babies all the attention they require and need. I can care for pets in my home as long as they would get along with my dog, Charlie. There would have to be an initial meeting first to determine that.

“Phoenix was amazing! He was right on time everyday, extremely patient with my wild bunch (I have 3 big dogs). My babies aren’t used to being with out me so we had a couple of accidents..Phoenix responded like a champ when I feel like some people would have said that wasn’t what they were getting paid for. I think my dogs might prefer him over me at this point because he gave lots of treats. Would definitely use again! Thanks Phoenix!”

“My 3 dogs have never boarded anywhere so we found Maddie on Rover. She came and spent time with them and became their best friend. I would highly recommend her for your furbabies! Great job!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and have had one in my home since the age of 9. Friends have trusted me to pop in and check on their pets while away as well as family has trusted me to care for their dogs when need be for I am super friendly and seem to be a “dog whisperer” I currently work as a receptionist at The Pet Hospitals and can take time after some shifts to go take care of pups in need I typically allow the doggos free space to roam if need be when they are house dogs and can easily make sure spaces outside are closed off so I can safely monitor and control play time

About: I’ve had dogs, cats, fish, turtles, livestock, you name it! I love every single one of them, but specifically cats and dogs! The companionship they bring is unimaginable, and I love spending time with them and seeing them happy! :) I work almost full time hours, and get a new schedule weekly (every Friday) for the following week! Once I have that schedule, I will work around those hours make your babies a priority! I can’t bring animals to my home, due to the amount I have at my house. I feel like if I did, it would put stress on your babies because of the changed environment and new animals. But, in your home, I will do whatever is instructed of me, and give your animals a fun play date and hang out!
