“Patty worked well with my parents in the home and they were able to accommodate each other. Which is very appreciated, since I am nervous about my elderly parents going down the stair with no one home. Will definitely use her again if she is available. We have trips planned for the future and having Patty checking in on my kitties will be a blessing. My fur babies loved her. She gave my one kitty her pills without issue and sent pictures of both.”
“Michael and Heather were absolutely amazing dog sitters! From the moment we connected, they were friendly, reliable, and clearly love what they do. They took such great care of our dogs and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We got regular updates and photos, which meant so much and really showed how happy and comfortable our pups were. It’s not easy to trust someone with your pets, but they went above and beyond in every way. Highly recommend Michael and Heather to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring, and attentive dog sitters. We will definitely be using them again!”
“We have used Ruth several times now for Drop-In Visits for Ziggy, and Ziggy and Cashew previously. Ruth is consistent in how she cares for Ziggy, following care instructions, and in her communication. I highly recommend Ruth for any form of pet care. She is truly skilled and committed to taking care of our furr babies. Ruth, we appreciate you. Thank you. Ziggy, Lori, and Rick”

About: I have been around dogs and cats since birth! I have experience giving medicine to older pups and exercising the young ones! Spending time with dogs and cats is my favorite hobby! I am a student-athlete that is home for the summer. I train early mornings and late nights, so any time in the day works for me! I have a fenced yard with an open pool. A two story house with a gate if needed. A turf with space to run on.
“Michelle took great care of our senior dog! Took her on several walks, even in the rain and spoiled her like family. We truly appreciate her and will certainly use her again!”


About: I’ve had hands-on experience caring for dogs my entire life. Growing up, I always had at least one dog in the home, and at one point cared for four dogs at once, which taught me how to manage different personalities, routines, and needs. I also gained experience dog sitting for neighbors and school teachers from a young age, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, and providing attentive, loving care. Being around animals has always been a natural part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I currently have another career, but spending time with animals is something I genuinely love and enjoy. I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive care and making sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while in my care. My availability is: • Wednesdays & Fridays: Available starting at 9:00 AM • Tuesdays & Thursdays: Available after 2:00 PM • Weekends: Limited availability depending on schedule When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and part of the family. I spend genuine quality time with them through play, attention, and companionship so they never feel lonely or stressed. I keep up with their feeding schedules, take them on walks for exercise and fresh air, and make time for fun activities like playing catch and interactive play. I also pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs to ensure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: My animal experience goes back to when I was younger get having cats, snakes and birds. To then showing dogs and training puppies basic commands. To now having a turtle and fish. I drop in early mornings, late after noons and evenings. I can walk dogs early in the mornings or late evenings. Which ever works best. I have a brick wall for a back yard. I can send pictures of what your fur babies eats and at what times. I clean up and if need be, can bathe your fur baby.

About: I grew up with dogs of my own growing up and am always the go to gal for pet-sitting my friends pups! I’ve been around lots of bigger dog breeds growing up and love to run around and play with them. I have experience with reactive pups as well and can handle up to 90 pounds on leash comfortably. Currently have two pups in our home and I adore them. They are getting older and don’t run around and play as much so I am looking to not only make a little money on the side but mostly just have fun and play with the pups. I do love all animas and will take great care of any pet but I have a special place in my heart for dogs! Very much looking forward to caring for your pets :) I currently am not working full time and am pretty flexible with my schedule. I plan to do a part time seasonal job this spring/summer at a plant nursery and I do arborist work on the side but both flexible and not full time. Anytime I am caring for a pet in their home or mine I always treat them as if they are my own and make sure their safety and wellbeing is a number one priority. I have cared for crate trained dogs and have experience caring for big dogs who can be reactive and anxious. I also always make sure they feel comfortable and provide a calm environment to ease any nerves about a new person caring for them.
Black Mountain pet parents share their Rover experiences
Mya was great! She dropped in 3 separate times to check on our cat when we were out of town. No issues at all! She provided pictures, pet and gave company to out cat, fed and watered, and cleaned litter box. Communication was always very quick. Would hire again.

Olivia was so great to our Charlie while we were out of town. She played with him and made sure he got pets and love. She even went out of her way to put two unexpected packages in the house. Thanks again Olivia, for being a sweetheart to our four legged baby. Highly recommend Olivia for your pet care needs!! Will be booking her more often!

This is the second time we've had Alex look after our cats. She did a wonderful job, especially considering all three cats are seniors needing medications and one is rather shy. Alex is reliable, a great communicator, flexible and has an obvious affinity with animals. We will definitely be booking with Alex again and highly recommend her!

"Ana was wonderful! She looked after my elderly cocker spaniel and my blind standard poodle for the last two days. She was punctual, provided great updates, and made sure all medications were administered correctly. Both dogs seemed so much happier when I got home. Highly recommend her services!"
