“Jacob took care of our three cats for our week-long vacation, providing daily medication to two of them. He was punctual for his visits and provided updates on how they were. I appreciate his reliability and taking good care of everyone while we were away.”
“She was very kind and knowledgeable! Was understanding of my forever changing schedule and made me feel safe leaving my cat with her! Hope to have her again if I need another pet sitter”
“This was my first time using this app. Kristin was great and my kitty was well taken care of. She left through notes and sent pictures, I was never worried!”
“Nafawna was absolutely wonderful with my 2 cats. I could tell from the pictures she sent that they loved her right away! Amazing communication and she is very kind. Highly recommend.”
“Kayla has been truly awesome with watching my cats! She is diligent in sending daily Rover Cards with photos, and letting me know how things are going! I trust her completely with my pets!”
“I was so relieved to have found Madison. My senior rescue cat is incredibly afraid of anyone new, but I knew it was a good sign when she sniffed Madison when she reached out to her! She was gentle with her. It gave me peace of mind to see photos of my little fuzzball when I was away (even when she was hiding). I’ll definitely ask for Madison’s help again in the future.”
About: As an animal person since birth I work hard to understand the specific needs and wants of each animal family member. I have worked with a wide variety of animals my whole life, in vet clinics, animal rehabs, farms, and homes. I can provide walks, hikes, senior care, interactive play time, personal attention, socialization, and general bathing and maintenance. I am incredibly intuitive and patient and pride myself in providing unique adaptive care to each pet. No pet is too big or small; too young or old! I care for all species as well. (dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, etc.) All animals deserve love and care! My work schedule is currently very flexible so most days are available at any time. I make sure to keep my calendar up to date. The safety of your pet is number one. I am more then happy to put in time to build trust with your pet. I even have a very patient dog of my own who can provide a friend to your dog or cat and help with socializing young or nervous animals. I not only care for your pet but your home. Any mess made by me or your pet I make sure to clean!
About: I've taken care of many foster pets from puppies to seniors and have always had 2 or more dogs in my household. I volunteered for a few years at a local shelter cleaning cages and giving those babes as much love and attention as I could. I hope your pup and I can have a great time! I'm currently not working so I am available for your pup anytime! I'm dedicated to giving them the best care that I can and often! I have a sweet rescue husky of my own who loves to meet new friends. Your pup will enjoy running around on our 3 acres or even a trip to the park! If your pup prefers walks I live in a large suburb with many great routes!
“Brittany took great care of our cats! They are both older and have special needs. I felt comfortable leaving them in her care and enjoyed the pictures she took.”
“I feel so lucky to have someone so reliable and caring to check in on our cats while we are away!”
About: I’ve had plenty experience caring for pets since I was young. It started off with family friends, neighbors, etc and now I’m several of their first resorts when they need someone to care for their animals! I have the most experience with adult age animals but have had some experiences with puppies/kittens and a few senior animals. I am currently on Summer break so I have more free time than usual, but just let me know what you need and we can work it out! I always appreciate and respect any rules you may have for your pet or that have to do with your household, in fact I tend to prefer it to make sure there’s no confusion or miscommunication on either end! I find it makes the owners feel more reassured and gives a better overall experience!

About: I’m a college graduate. My major was in animal assisted therapy. I am cpr certified. I’m all about what is best for the animal. I love animals that is why I choose this profession.

“Lillian is super friendly and kind, and Stuart loves her which is so important! She's definitely a great animal person and it's such a huge relief to have somebody so nice to check in on the little guy while we're out of town. I'm sure he appreciated her visit as much as we did! She's very communicative and sent us a bunch of pictures as well. Will definitely be hiring her again in the future!”
About: Student Affairs professional for OHIO and love all furry animals. I had an amazing Norwegian Elkhound Mix and 2 cats. Now I have 9 month lab mix and 1 cat. Both very friendly and good with everyone. I'm very patient, optimistic, and kind. I have experience with pups & senior dogs. I'm comfortable administering medication, including injections and promise to love your pet unconditionally while they are in my care. Depending on the needs of your pets they'll enjoy at least one walk a day, potentially a hike, and get plenty of attention throughout their stay with me. Before rescuing my current dog, I trained two Great Pyrenees from 6 months to 3 years for a friend. I'm comfortable with all dogs and cats and hope I can help provide care for you soon! During the school year I work from home 2 days a weeks and in the summer 3 days! This gives me plenty of flexibility to check on your pets as needed. Additionally, I have the flexibility to check during my lunch break if needed when I'm in the office. I have a fenced in backyard and will gate off sections of our home until we know the dog is comfortable in our home and with our dog & cat. We block off the stairs to keep them on the ground floor with us.

I have no problem cleaning up litter boxes, brushing, and even giving medications if needed! I’m currently in college and working part time. Right now i’m mostly available Tuesdays and Thursdays after 4. Summer is coming up so my availability will open up! I have no issue cleaning up after the pet and cleaning litter boxes. I can also ensure they have fresh water and if needed food at my visits.

Paige K.
“Paige is WONDERFUL, and I would trust her with my dog any day :) when I had her watch my pup for the weekend, she took amazing care of him. She did the obvious (let him out, fed him, walked him), as well as took him on a long hike so he could get out, get some fresh air, and let his energy out. She is someone who genuinely cares about animals, and she would do an exceptional job with any animal who is in her care.”
