“Marissa is an excellent caretaker for our very energetic dog Squid. In fact, we're pretty sure Squid is eager for us to leave again so that Marissa will come back.”

About: Hello! With over five years of experience with in-home pet care, I’ve had the pleasure of working with a wide range of animals—from dogs and cats to chickens, horses and ducks—each with their own unique personality and needs. What sets me apart is my commitment to providing personalized care. I carefully follow each pet’s specific instructions to ensure their routine, comfort, and safety are always prioritized. Your pets are not just animals to me—they're family, and I treat them as such. With anxious & stressed pets, I really take my time to get to know them. I allow them to go at their own pace & provide them plenty of space until they’re comfortable. Having anxious dog myself, I understand the importance of patience & compassion. Not every dog or cat wants to be loved on by a stranger in their home and to be honest, I don’t blame them haha! With them I take my time & make sure I’m meeting their basic needs until they’re ready for lovin’s! In my experience i have also learned that it’s not just about taking care of your pets, but your home too. I will take care of additional tasks like spot cleaning, bringing in packages & mail, water plants, etc.! Please do not hesitate to ask! Willing to negotiate pricing for multi-pet homes (4+ pets). Thank you!!! I work full time doing Rover, which gives me the flexibility to offer reliable availability throughout the week. Whether you need a regularly scheduled visit or last-minute care, I’m often able to accommodate your needs with short notice. Safety is always my top priority. No matter the location or type of service, your pet’s well-being comes first. I take every precaution to ensure they are never put in unsafe situations and always cared for with caution, attention, and responsibility. Some listed below: Avoiding interactions with other dogs & people during walks No outside treats or human food unless directed to Constant supervision when your dog is outside & in areas of your home that may have hazards Limiting phone time during walks No friends or family brought over to your home without your permission Picking up & putting away any thing in your home that your dog may choke or chew on. Being vigilant for cars, people, & off leash dogs during walks I will not walk a dog that I do not think I can walk safely- knowing my limits Being vigilant when entering & exiting your home to ensure no escape artist sneak out. And so much more! Your pet’s safety is my top priority!

“Bella is AMAZING! My cat is obsessed with her. I had peace of mind knowing Bella was taking such great care of him while I was out of town. I fully trust Bella and highly recommend!”

“Luke was great with Ellie! And was great at sending photos of their time together. I always stress leaving her behind so his communication was very helpful in keeping my stress at bay.”

“Ella was great!! She made sure my pup was well cared for and went above and beyond to send me picture and updates while I was gone. I couldn’t recommend Ella more, she gave me so much peace of mind knowing that my dog was in great hands while I was out of town!”

“Eliza was absolutely terrific. She was so patient with our senior dog (15 yrs old) Also, our new rescue (9 yrs old) we have been workibg on house training her. Eliza spent the nights here as well (which not all dog sitters will do). I would highly recommend Eliza. She was here for 7 nights 8 days. Great personality and easy to communicate with. Bonnie”

About: I have taken care of my two pit bulls since the start of high school. I love giving affection to them, including others I have met in person. I used to have a senior dog who had joint problems and needed help on the stairs, bed, and sofa. I also love meeting my friends’ pets and giving them the same affection as I do with my own pets. I do drop in visits, house sitting, and dog walking. I would love to give your fur babies a bunch of affection and care. I’ll make sure to update you regularly with pictures so you know that your pets are in safe hands. Your pets safety is my top priority. For dog walking, I’ll make sure they stay off the road when the pavement is too hot and/or a car is coming. I will also stay alert to my surroundings. I am unemployed, so I have plenty of time to take care of your dogs and/or cats! I will be available Sunday through Thursday. I'll do my best in following your schedule so your pets won't get stressed by any sudden changes. I'll make sure to ask any questions on how to take care of your dogs and cats so I won't make any needless mistakes. I will also send you updates of your pets by sending you photos and texts.

“Chilynn is the best! Very knowledgeable and experienced with pets, and just a very kind and warm person. She was very reliable, and great with communicating and updates. She took good care of our buddies. ?highly recommend!!!”

“Skyla was responsive and incredibly attentive to our dogs. She was very communicative and anticipated the needs of our pets. Would definitely have her watch after our dogs again!!”

About: I have worked with animals off and on my whole life. I’ve had four dogs growing up including my current dog. I do have experience with epilepsy since my current dog does have it. I can also help with basic training such as walking nicely on a leash. I am currently trying to find a new career so working with doggos in the meantime will help me in that journey. I am open for walks or checks in during the week, but can only do stayovers on the weekends. I unfortunately can not have pets at my current residence as it is my parents, but I am more than willing to multiple stops or even overnights for your pets. I will love and care for them as if they’re my own.

“Grace did an awesome job taking care of Derps and our house. Derpie was limping when I left and I was worried about him, but Grace took good care of him and kept me updated as he got better throughout the week.”

She was prompt in returning messages and sent us photos too. She even made friends with our very shy cat who will normaly never even be around strangers. She's truly a "cat whisperer"! We recommend her highly!”

About: I am a Registered Nurse with a deep love for animals and extensive experience in specialized pet care. I currently volunteer at my local animal shelter, where I walk dogs, assist with basic training, and support rescue animals in need. Caring for these shelter animals, and working with pets on Rover, has become a meaningful way for me to channel my grief after my beloved 15-year-old rescue dog, Winnie, recently crossed the rainbow bridge. At home, I also share my life with a sweet, 4-year-old rescue cat named Chip. My background in nursing makes me highly comfortable administering medications and injections. Additionally, thanks to my many years of loving Winnie, I am no stranger to senior care, complex medical needs, or the gentle patience required for elderly pets. I have great flexibility throughout the week! I'm available most weekdays and weekends to help take your dog out or drop in to check on your kitty. Last-minute bookings are welcome, provided I have at least 24 hours' notice. While I don't offer boarding in my own home, I specialize in keeping your animals safe, happy, and comfortable in theirs. Whether it's a drop-in visit, a walk, or overnight house sitting, my priority is maintaining your pet's familiar environment to keep stress low. I am committed to building trust through reliable care and clear communication. For your peace of mind, I am fully trained to administer specialized care, including CPR, standard medications, and medical injections, ensuring your furry family members are always in safe hands.

About: I’ve owned multiple dogs my entire life, I’ve owned rescues and know how to correctly deal with any issues they might have with their trauma. I also have a 16 year old westie who’s still living his best life. I will never mistreat your pet. I just graduated college with a bachelors in business administration and a minor in marketing. So I am currently job hunting so I have a lot of free time. I will follow any instructions to the T! I can let your pets out however much they need and if they are being too roudy I can put them inside or in a kennel if needed.

About: I grew up with shelter dogs my whole life, and we always had three dogs at a time, so I’m very used to different personalities, energy levels, and behaviors. Having rescue dogs taught me a lot of patience and helped me learn how every dog has their own needs and routine. Something that sets me apart is my hands-on experience with training my German Shepherd Husky mix at home, so I’m comfortable working with high-energy dogs and helping reinforce good habits. I also have experience with dogs of all ages, including seniors, so I understand the extra gentleness and patience they sometimes need. Honestly, I just really love being around dogs and miss mine at home, so I’d love the chance to spend time with some furry friends and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I am in school full time and I work at Chick Fil A part time, but I am done with classes most days by 3pm so I am willing to walk dogs on those days! I also do not go home hardly ever, except holidays so I can do weekend care as well! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to stick closely to their normal routine because I know how important consistency is for dogs. One of my dogs at home, Maui, will even get sick if breakfast is more than about 30 minutes late, so I truly understand how much pets rely on their schedules for comfort and health. I’m also very comfortable cleaning up after pets and handling any accidents quickly and responsibly. Being an only child, I’ve always been the one to step in and take care of messes at home, so it comes naturally to me to keep both the pet and the home clean and comfortable. I also know how reassuring updates can be for pet parents. Whenever my family goes on trips, my mom loves receiving photos of our dogs, so I always plan to send picture updates and little check-ins so owners know their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: I’ve had dogs for 12+ years. Two I’ve raised from puppy’s and worked on behavioral training such as, going on walks, sitting, laying, and many other things. I have also trained show pigs for the last 9 years. I am available Monday through Friday most day hours. I am available some evenings and some weekends. I enjoy working with animals and helping out anyway I can. I treat the animal with respect and follow instruction as needed. I believe in consistency so that the animal doesn’t get confused. I think it’s important that the dog feels comfortable, gets cared for, and gets plenty of exercise.
