“Landon was wonderful with our cats! On his first visit, he went out of his way to spend extra time with them and made sure they were well cared for. He cleaned the litter box daily and was even kind enough to take out the trash. We’ll definitely be using Landon again!”
“My cat is usually very shy and takes several meetings to come to new people but I could tell he took to Jeanette immediately in the photos which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was on a long trip. When I returned home he was happy and stress free so I know Jeanette took wonderful care of him.”
“Amanda was amazing with the girls! Greatful for her detailed updates/photos every visit. It felt like our kitties got all the love they would normally get at home and then some! 5⭐️”
“100% recommend Jessica and her husband! They were very flexible and reliable. They gave us detailed reports with pictures. Our pets loved them and their care was unmatched. We definitely will be using Jessica again.”
“This is the second time we’ve used Nora. We have three dogs, so it’s quite a bit of juggling! We totally appreciate all the help she has done with feeding, letting out, and pills. We will use her again!”
“Megan was very attentive and awesome looking after our two cats! Her updates we always looked forward to and our cats certainly appreciated her presence as well. She was nothing but awesome and definitely cares about your animals like her own :)”
“I left Kota with her for the day while at work and she kept me updated and made sure to give him attention. I got picture and video updates while at work and had an easy drop-off and pick-up. Would definitely recommend her and go back to her in the future!”
About: Hi there! I’m Jamie, and if I’m being honest... I love animals more than humans most days. With over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for everything from puppies to parrots—and even the occasional goat—I’ve built a life around making animals feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether you're headed out of town or just need a hand with your furry (or feathery, or scaly) family members, I'm here to make things easier for both you and your beloved creature friends. My goal? Zero stress for you, and tail wags, purrs, or chirps of joy for them. 🐶🐱🐥 Who I Care For: I care for all kinds of animal companions, including: Dogs (all ages & sizes) Cats (sassy to snuggly) Birds (my personal favorite!) Reptiles & Amphibians Rodents, Rabbits, Goats, Chickens... you name it! If they’re not human and you love them—I want to care for them. 🐕 Dog Experience: Puppies: potty training, basic commands, playtime! Seniors: medication, gentle physical therapy, stroller walks (yes, I have one!) Experience with dogs from 8–85 lbs and ages 2 months to 17 years 🐈 Cat Experience: Comfortable with all cat personalities (aloof, cuddly, spicy) Experience with elderly and sick cats, including medication administration 🐦 Bird Experience: Over 2 years of bird care experience Former bird rescuer & re-releaser (yep, I caught lost birds in buildings!) Passionate about bird behavior, feeding, handling, and enrichment 🦎 Amphibian & Reptile Experience: Experience with frogs, toads, turtles, and even an axolotl Open and eager to follow your specific care routines 🐾 Other Critters: I may not have decades of experience with rodents, bunnies, chickens, or goats—but I follow instructions to a T and learn fast. If you tell me what your animal needs, I’ll make sure it’s done right—with love and care. 💬 My Care Philosophy: Every animal is unique—and so is every pet parent. I never assume I know better than you when it comes to your pet's needs. I’ll love your animal like family, but I’ll always respect your rules, routines, and preferences. You can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and compassionate. 🌟 New to Rover, Not New to Animals While I’m just starting out on Rover, I bring decades of animal experience and a deep love for every creature I meet. Give me a chance, and I promise—you’ll be able to relax knowing your animal companions are in caring, capable hands. Let’s chat about how I can help make life a little easier—for you and your creature friends. 🐾💛 I’m currently not working and I’m ready to be there to play with your pups or other critters when you need me. I can generally respond to last minute requests if necessary, but appreciate as much of heads up as possible. I have a fenced in yard, one small, elderly and kind of cranky dog, two cats, and three teenage humans (who all love animals as much as I do!). When it comes to caring for your pets in my home, I have to be a little more discerning as I have the needs of my own animal friends to consider. I can care for potty trained, non-dominant, non-aggressive, and very calm dogs and cats in my home. I can also care for caged or tanked creature friends in my home.
About: I'm friendly energetic and I can't wait to take care of your little buddy!! My family and myself have had dogs as part of our family my entire life. I'm usually the go to friend to watch my friends dogs whenever they are away or taking a vacation. So I thought this would be a great opportunity to do something I love. I work a full- time job during the week but I am home every night and available most weekends. As long as I have at least 1 days notice I should always be available ☺️ I have a large fenced in yard and 1 small very friendly fur baby of my own. Your dog will be free to roam my home, cuddle on my furniture and experience all the love and companionship I give to my own dog. I have plenty of space for any size dog crate so if your dog is crate trained I can accommodate their stay that way too.
“Carol is a great pet-sitter! She was so kind and loving with my cats, and she kept me updated everyday with notes and pictures! This was my second time with her, and she is very reliable. Highly recommend!! Thank you, Carol!!!”
About: I have owned pets my whole life. My two Bernese Mountain Dogs both recently passed and I would love to care for your pets as I get over their loss. I work 7:30-4:30 in Hiawatha Monday-Friday with a 1 hour lunch for letting the dog out at noon, all my other time is available before and after work. I am not currently offering in-home pet care. Will update if this changes in the future. No pricing has been provided for this particular service.
About: I have two dogs of my own who love I take on daily hikes and walks and would love other doggos to hangout with us! We love to bike and hike in the summers and ski and snowshoe in the winters. I’m currently a student so I have most of my classes remotely so I am home most of the day to hangout with the pups! I have 2 crates if needed and walking trails nearby. Please let me know if there is anything you need to accommodate your animals needs.
About: I have always been with animals when I was a kid and everyone counted on me to take care of their animals. They trusted me. I work full time Monday through Friday. Open on the weekends. Message me about times due to my hours are different on Tuesday & Thursday. I have a friendly neighborhood, family is nice, own one dog that is friendly, loves to play. Great environment. Big open place to run around.
About: I’ve taken care of pets my entire life and I’m currently working as a kennel assistant/weekend boarding manager. I’ve also worked as a veterinary assistant so I am well equipped to handle all pets of all sizes, ages, and breeds. I’m currently working part time so my schedule is pretty flexible. I work at a doggy daycare in the mornings on Monday, Tuesday, and Fridays, and 7-11 + 2-5 on weekends. I am available for pet/house sitting on weekends if you and your pet(s) are comfortable with my schedule. Weekdays are very flexible for me. At the clients home i will walk them or let out in a fenced yard whatever is available to make sure your pet is well cared for. For yards I will pick up any waste your pet leaves behind. I am also more than happy to take your dog for a walk around a trail or neighborhood or wherever U would like me to.
“Brittany was wonderful with Dixie, making sure she was using the litter box! She'd check for poops and pees, because Dixie's on medication for both issues. She would contact me regularly with texts and pictures! I could see Dixie playing with the laser red dot and other toys! When I arrived home, it was clear that Dixie had been well taken care of! Brittany is a professional! I would recommend Brittany! And I'd hire her again! Thank you, Lynne”
“Mellette was so patient and great with our cats while we were out of town. She encouraged them to spend time with her without overwhelming their space. She let them get used to her at their own pace. We loved getting daily report cards and photos from Mellette. We will definitely use her again!”
About: I have taken care of my brothers dog who is 8 years old (Rottweiler/Lab 70lbs) for almost three years now. And once in a while I watch over my sisters dog who is a 2 year old American bulldog. I’ve taught my my brothers Rottweiler how to stay, sit. He is a very needy dog but I’ve learned to be patient. I taught my sister puppy to sit, give me his paw and leave it. Doggies can be so energetic but that’s the fun part. I’m currently working overnights (10pm/6am). And my mornings/ evenings are pretty flexible. The only days I wouldn’t be able to be free is on Tuesdays evening. At my apartment building we have a fenced yard made for pets if needed. Otherwise my apartment is pet free and your pet is safe. I can also watch them at your place if needed.
About: I’ve had a dog in my life since the day I was born. I love to spend time with dogs by going for walks or car rides (if the owner allows it of course!) I have a cat and a dog of my own that I care for daily. All the usuals like feeding, letting outside, cleaning the litter box, but I also love to take my dog for walks and car rides or play with her in the back yard. I have so much fun playing with my cat and just giving him love! I’m usually very good about being able to let dogs out every couple of hours and love to hang out for a while to keep your pets company while you’re away!
