“Lily was amazing with our kitty Vera. She is on a special diet and medicine and Lily ensured she ate and received her medication. She sent updates every morning and was very responsive. Will definitely use Lily again.”

About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life (as well as a few chinchillas, parakeets, racoons, fish, etc.) I love all animals and look forward to caring for yours. I recently retired so I have maximum flexibility to meet your needs. Weekdays or weekends are fine. Long-term or short-term both work for me. I am flexible. I live a short distance from a dog park and walking path. Let me know any of your pets special needs and I would be happy to accommodate them.

“Allison is wonderful. She is very thorough and our cat was in good hands with her.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 11 years old. I have had a few of my own and was relied on by neighbors, family, and friends to take care of their dogs while they were away! I am currently a college student, and also work part time. I am off work for a couple months, so I have plenty of time to feed, let out, and play with your animals! I do not have other animals come to my house because I have one older dog of my own, and my house does not have a ton of room for more animals.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for about 4 years now and I love all animals! I can do puppies all the way to senior pets and I have no problem with any breeds! I also love reptiles and rodents if you have any in addition to dogs or cats, i’d happily do anything you need me to do for them! I am a college student at siue but I still have a super flexible schedule and i have a lot of free time to hang out with pets! i’ve grown up with pets all my life and even worked at a doggy daycare in my hometown so i’d love to be there for pets who don’t like daycares and prefer to stay in their own space. Also, weather doesn’t bother me so i’ll walk your pet in rain or shine!

About: I started my care for animals 22 years ago in a non profit animal shelter. Since then I’ve been able to gain my experience through many different roles within the field of non profit shelter work and finally working up to a vet tech. I’ve been able to use the skills of vet tech in shelter as well as a private practice for the past 10 years. I’ve handled everything from neonates who need round the clock assistance to senior pets who need special medications/care or even I pets that are diabetic and need insulin. I’m an avid animal lover and protecter. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have a very flexible schedule so fitting in pet care is usually no issue. Whether dropping off pets in the morning or in the evening for boarding, drop ins, walks, dog/cat sitting, I will make sure scheduling is accommodating so that every pet I care for gets the proper love, care, and attention they need. 😁❤️ I care for pets the same as if they are my own. They will be let out to potty every 2-4 hours. I have dogs and cats in my household so they would need to be friendly with other pets but I’m alway good with sitting at your home as well. I will treat your home with the same respect I give my own. I can accommodate a pet that needs to be crated as well.

“Great experience - My first using rover.com. Katie was fantastic and took care of the stray cats as well as several other things I needed her to do for me. Two thumbs up & 5 stars!”

About: I am an avid pet lover. I’ve been around dogs all my life (minus a short time when I lived in an apartment and couldn’t have a dog, so we decided to adopt 2 cats!). I am a pretty active gal, and am able to take dogs for walks (and even run if they want to). I'm open to drop in visits, housesitting, walks, etc. I am unable to provide boarding at my house, as our Chloe is selective about her friends. We are working with her on being more tolerant of others. If boarding is your preference, I would be open to a Chloe meet-and-greet to make sure your dog and Chloe are comfortable with each other. I work locally around Columbia, so I am able to do some petsitting during the week. I have more availability on the weekends. If my schedule allows, I can drop in on lunch to check on your pets. Your rules are my rules. As long as the dog/cat/etc. is happy, I am happy. My dogs are allowed on furniture and have the run of the house. Of course, they are not chewers and (typically) do not destroy things.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life and have always been the one to care for them. I’m dependable, loving, and comfortable with pets of all ages. Your pet’s well-being is my main focus. I’m available on weekdays and most weekends to provide them with consistent, loving care and attention they’ll enjoy.” I live in a neighborhood that’s great for walking dogs and very safe, with quiet streets and plenty of green spaces. It’s a peaceful area where neighbors look out for each other, making every walk enjoyable.
