“Jaclyn went above and beyond! She took such good care of our dogs while we were away! One of our dogs was having bad anxiety and she did everything to help him calm down. Her communication was great and we will be reaching out in the future!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We could not have asked for a better pet and house sitter. Ashley did an amazing job caring for our home and pets, and went above and beyond in every way. She sent us updates and pictures every morning, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Ashley also administered our dog Wade’s insulin injections, and she handled it confidently and carefully. Knowing Wade’s medical needs were met so well was incredibly reassuring. What truly meant the most to our family was how Ashley also helped care for my dad—making sure he had food every evening and checking in on him. That extra level of kindness and responsibility speaks volumes about her character. She is dependable, thoughtful, communicative, and genuinely caring. We felt completely comfortable and confident knowing everything (and everyone) was in such good hands. We would 100% use Ashley again and recommend her without hesitation.”

“Auntie Ty is the best! She was so attentive to all of our animals and cleaned up after our messy cats like a champ 💪🏻 She’s also a great communicator so you will always know your fur babies are safe, healthy, and happy! ❤️”

“Angela was our first dog sitter and we are so lucky to have found her! My doggies immediately liked her, at the start of the meet and greet (great sign!), and as a bonus, she has an extensive background working with animals. This made us very comfortable knowing Lily and Gracie were in good hands! My girls were well cared for, and Angela was a perfect house guest while we were on vacation! We will have Angela watch our pups again! Thank you Angela!”
“Eliza was wonderful and my dogs certainly gave her a run for her money this go around haha! One who snuck some goodies off the counter and another who decided to chew on a windowsill lol and she handled it all like a champ! Will definitely use her again!!”

About: From my experience in shelter care and veterinary medicine, I am very comfortable with caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and medical needs. I have dealt with strays and owned pets from every imaginable background, and I believe every animal is worthy of patience, respect, and affection. I’m currently unemployed so I have a very open schedule for watching your dogs and cats! I typically let my own dogs out about 4-5 times a day, and they each have their own feeding schedule that I attend to as needed. I am very flexible right now, and would also be available to do fluids, injections, and other specific medical and behavioral needs (e.g., extra walks, extra play time, etc.). I have a fenced in yard and three friendly dogs, and two sweet cats, to keep your furbaby company. I am comfortable crating dogs and have an extra crate for a small-medium dog. One of my dogs is a senior dog with special needs, so I am perfectly comfortable housing and caring for dogs who have their own special needs. I also have a dog with epilepsy so I am very used to dealing with seizures and the safety precautions that go along with them. These dogs have also never met a stranger, and our home is an overall very welcoming environment to all creatures (I even have a pet spider!).
“We are so very thankful for Kayla! This was our first time using Rover so we didn’t know what to expect. Kayla updated us every day with photos and info about the pups, was so flexible when our plans changed, and gave us so much peace with leaving our pups in her care. We will absolutely use her again for our next trip!”

“Jessie looked after our soon to be 19 yr old kitty, Bella. She's a tough one...blind, deaf in one ear, has asthma and in renal failure (but is still going strong). Oh, Bella also has attitude...aka...tortietude...the kind a Persain tortoiseshell, senior cat would have. Trust me, I had reservations leaving her for one night, but I did. Thankfully, Jessie came through. Jessie was reliable in every way...even when it came to medicating Bella, which turned out to be more difficult than the consult. I guess, because Bella is now blind, taking a treat, with medication hidden inside, from a stranger, is a no-no. Anyway, we were able to talk things through, and ultimately, late in the evening, Jessie was able to manually give Bella her medications...and I was able to sleep soundly knowing Bella was in good hands. Jessie is a kind soul, has patience, and cared enough to meet Bella where she was. For that, I would hire her again in a heart beat.”

About: My sweet rescue Izzy could tell you, I have the biggest heart for her and always aim to make her feel safe and loved. I have taken care of cats and dogs of all kinds, including puppies! I am a teacher that is on summer break from June to July. I have pretty open availability to get to know your babies this summer. I can check in on your pet, take them for a walk, or just play with them during the work day! It is important for them to get stimulation throughout the day.
About: I’ve been a pet owner for 35 plus years. Currently we all work hard to maintain our cat Cricket’s luxurious life of sleep treats eat and repeat. With 10 years experience being a Housekeeper I had the privilege of meeting some special 4 legged family members who in turn I began to pet sit for. I’ve done lots of drop in visits for cats and dogs. Now that I’m a semi-empty nester with one child still in college I’d love to meet and help with your pet. Thanks for considering me! I’m currently a homemaker and volunteer with our church including Sunday School and a Kids church teacher. I have lots availability at the moment and openings for weekdays and weekends. My backyard is fenced and I have one indoor cat. I prefer to do drop ins or daily walks at this time weekdays and weekends.
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 go above and beyond for every one of my pet owners to make sure their babies are safe, well taken care of, and spoiled!! I have experience with all breeds, of all sizes and ages as well. I do everything I can to make sure your pets are happy and healthy. I also buy treats and toys (specific to your pups needs/wants). I'm currently working full time, from 8:30-3:30. So I will be with your babies in the morning from 6:30 AM to the time I go to work, come back around 3:30-4 PM, stay for a few hours, and then make one more night stop. Or, I just stay if im staying at my pet owners house. I dont do boarding but I am able to bring your babies to my house if need be whike i watch them. I have 2 dogs and 4 cats (2 of which are kittens) that would love to play with them and I have kennels if necessary as well. When at my pet owners house, I like spend quality time with all of the babies, make sure everyone is fed and taken care of and play until all that energy is out!

“Brooke was phenomenal! She and our skittish little dog, Bingo, hit it off right away during a "meet & greet". She took great care of Bingo, sending us pictures & updates on a regular basis. we were able to fully enjoy our 10 day trip, knowing our home and fur baby were in such good hands. We will definitely want Brooke back the next time we leave town.”

“Melissa came to the house early Sunday morning to be with Tootsie and Gizmo. She stayed with them until Saturday evening. They were well cared for. Thank you very much, Melissa.”

“Dimecia was wonderful with my girl Darcy! She came for a meet and greet before even on a last minute request! She sent pictures of her visit and updated me about my girl. She spent time snuggling and giving belly rubs in the evening just like my baby loves! I could tell Dracy felt the love and made a friend for life! I will definitely be using Dimecia again in the future .”

About: I have been a dog sitter for friends for the last 5 years and have been a volunteer dog walker at the Seminole County Animal Shelter in Longwood, Florida and now at the Humane Society of Memphis and Shelby County. Spending time with dogs and giving them all the love is so rewarding to me. I love to give back and help others, when needed. I'm currently working part-time (2-3 days a week), so I have extra time in my schedule to help others and care for your dogs! Whether in my home or the client's, I will do my best to make sure your fur baby feels comfortable and safe. I live in a secured area and would need to let management know of any temporary dog stays, but my yard is fenced and large for your dog to run around and play.
