“Savannah helped all my worries about leaving my cat! She gave great updates and I could tell in the photos that skettie loved the visits!! I would recommend her to any animal parent!!”


“We cannot say enough good things about Caitlin. Traveling with Hoss and Lucy was last minute and we had to make arrangements quickly! Caitlin responded promptly and answered all of our questions. She was dependable and met all of our needs. We had to change the scheduled visits several times and she was always quick to respond and very accommodating. We will definitely call on her again the next time we are in the Pineville area. Thank you Caitlin for taking care of Hoss and Lucy!”


“This was my first time giving Rover a chance, and I cannot say enough good things about the dog-lover I was connected with! Ashley went above and beyond for my (slightly odd) dog, Jesse. He’s not the easiest dog, but Ashley did her best to make him comfortable. She sat with him and gave him all the lovies! We got pictures and videos of each visit. I definitely recommend her services to anyone who is thinking about trying Rover out!”



About: I've loved dogs my entire life, while in highschool I had so much fun with my German Shepherd, Ginger. Once I bought my house 3 years ago, I immediately began to look for a another dog. I was lucky enough to rescue my beautiful Lab-mix, Jetta. I've cared for her since she was 2 months old and she is now three. She's super friendly and loves to play with other dogs. I have experience with providing medicine to puppies and fully grown dogs. I'm more than willing and capable to provide any special treatment your dog will need. I look forward to taking your dog for long walks and playing fetch in my backyard or the nearby fields. I work from home full time, so I can take care of all your fur baby’s needs. Whatever it maybe from taking them to the vet, administering medicine, I can do it all. I have 2 other dogs for yours to play with, along with a fully fenced in backyard. We’ll play fetch in the backyard and go for walks in the neighborhood

“Would definitely recommend Kayli. She was so so great with my dog Rose while we were out of town. She did in home visits, communicated with me so well and took plenty of pictures during her visits. I will definitely be using her again when I have to go back out of town! ❤️❤️”


About: I have never had a dog on my own before. But I have watched dogs in the past so I understand their needs to take care of them properly. I recently graduated from college and I am looking for a way to make some money while I am preparing for my boards. So since I have no more classes to go to I am pretty open whenever. I will be able to do whatever your availability is and what it is that you need. I care for pets by ensuring that there is nothing dangerous out in the house for them to get into. I also make sure that there are no wide open windows and that all doors and windows are locked when a pet is home alone for a long period of time.

About: I’ve always loved all animals, and while I loved the cats we had growing up, every year for Christmas the only thing I asked for was a dog. And I was always told no. So, as early as 10 years old I started putting up posters in my neighborhood to start dog walking. I did walks, dog sitting, begged neighbors to let me come over just to play fetch with their dog, made yearly powerpoint presentations showcasing why I deserved to get a dog (which was always rejected), you name it. At 19 the wait was over and I got my first dog, Kodiak. And the wait was worth it. It taught me patience, understanding, overall training her was a labor of love but so worth it in the end. It taught me effective methods for safe walking practices, how to instill basic principles of discipline, and how to better understand body language on their part for their needs. Pet care mostly available weekday evenings, and most times on weekends Friday-Sunday. Early weekend morning jogs for the dogs is preferred! Or evening outings to get their energy out. We have an acre of property my dog roams on, if another dog were brought on I would keep them leashed during outdoor time as the front of the property is not fenced. We have multiple open areas inside that can allow for safe indoor play and can kennel your pup if you require it. If I am caring for a pet in the client’s home, I carry my own leash and treat supplies (generic or grain-free per preference) to ensure my and your dog’s safety. I have experience clicker training and carry one if the client has utilized it as a training tool in the past.

About: I've just always had a passion to treat all pets with love. If I can help someone out whether they're away or having a busy schedule, I will always be there any time of day or night. I have experience in pets from days old to senior pets who need a little extra patience and love. I'm a stay at home wife who takes care of my own two pets! I'm always free at anytime, even if it's a quick random pop in. I will always be that person who will listen to you and your rules about your pets, with added love! If you have a schedule for you pets then I will follow it down to the second.

About: I have grown up with pets and critters my entire life! Having labs, boarder collies, German shepherds, boxers and even a chihuahua growing up, I have been around a wide range of dogs for as long as I can remember. I have also grown up around livestock and other household pets, especially horses, and have been trusted to farm sit for families going on vacation who have a long list of pets they needed care for. I have experience with dogs of various energy levels, health concerns and behavioral concerns and strive to accommodate their specific situation the best I can! P.s. - I'm also a photographer and (obviously) adore dogs so you will probably (definitely) get pictures of your pup while you're away! I currently work from home and have rather flexible work hours so I can make almost any time work for visiting and walking your dogs! Whether it be a simple potty break in the backyard or a longer walk, I am happy to make it happen! I currently plan to offer walks and drop in visits but will eventually offer more services in the future. Safety for your dog is my top priority! During my time with them, I plan to closely follow your directions for their specific needs and preferences. I am happy to walk them (or let them out) in the areas you have allotted and return them to the area you prefer them to be left in, whether that be crated or not. I have been around many dogs with various needs and am happy to accommodate to your pups situation!
