“Jaron did a great job taking care of our kitties while we were away. He showed up on time and provided great updates for what he saw of them and how they were doing. They are not too fond of other people but our most shy cat even came out to greet him both times! Jaron was also able to stop by and meet our cats before hand to make sure everything went smoothly. I will definitely be using Jaron again for my next vacation!”
“Thank you Sarah for helping me meet the needs of my cat while I was out of town! Although he didn’t cooperate fully, you never gave up on giving the best care you could. I arrived home to a well fed and happy cat!”
“Allyson is wonderful! Our boy is quite a bundle of energy and hard to manage, but he LOVES.Allyson!!! He knows he will get lots of exercise, playtime and attention, and we know she will be reliable. We are thankful to have her.”
“She did a very great job taking care of my babies. She actually made another visit in between times so they wasn't inside to long. Highly recommend her. I'd definitely have her do it again if she is available. Great job”
About: I've been a registered vet tech since 2020, but working in vet clinics prior to then, and house sitting/daily check-ins for even longer. I am also fear free certified and CPR certified. I can easily adapt to your kiddos needs. Animals are my passion. I grew up on a hobby farm, so I've handled all sized dogs and cats from neonatal to geriatric. I would love to meet you and your kiddo before I take care of them. This way I can learn about your kiddo and their needs. I work from 7 am to 6 pm. I alternate between weekends and weekdays every other month. I am flexible and willing to see what I can do to help care for you babies while you're away. I prefer at least 1-2 weeks in advance notice. I have a fenced in yard for my two German shepherds. I also created a large rabbit pen for my rescued Mini Rex. My husband and I built a large coop and pen for our chickens. I take my boys for walks on a local trail especially on cool days. I always monitor the weather to make sure they are comfortable on their walk. I would be happy to provide the same care for your pet! I will offer all the approved treats and get as much activity in as possible to assure your baby isn't stuck at home full of energy.
“Claire was wonderful with our fur babies. She sent photos to keep us updated and worked to make friends with our smallest one who was shy. So appreciate Claire and her help.”
About: My love of animals started from a young age. I grew up on a farm with a variety of pets, from dogs and cats to pigs and horses! I have fostered and boarded a variety of dog breeds and cats, and I currently have a dog and 4 kittens - so you can trust your pet will be in great hands! I am an active teacher, so I stay busy throughout the week, but I am off on holiday breaks and weekends, which is when I will be most available! I do also have afternoon and nighttime availability thought out the week on occasion. I provide personalized care for your pets by sticking to their routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs they have. I ensure their environment stays comfortable and safe while you’re away, offering companionship and attention to keep them happy and relaxed. Regular updates and photos will keep you informed, so you can rest easy knowing your pet is in great hands!
“Kelley was nothing short of amazing! She handled everything perfectly and was consistent and on time. It was a great feeling to know that my fur babies were being well taken care of. If you want someone that pays attention, is on time and great with animals.. call Kelley!”
About: Hello! I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life even though I’ve never had any of my own. This includes looking after and taking care of family members’ pups while growing up. Other than family, I’ve watched the same dog on multiple occasions, including two separate 3-week stays where I was responsible for feeding, walking, playing, and keeping him company. One of those stays was in my own space, so I’m comfortable managing a dog’s needs independently and keeping up with their routine. I don’t currently have pets of my own, but I’m very attentive, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I offer drop-in visits, walks, and in-home sitting, and I’ll send updates and cute photos of your pup so you feel at ease while you’re away. I work from 12–8 M-F, so I’m available in the mornings and later in the evening for walks, drop-ins, and check-ins. I can also do overnight house sitting depending on the situation. On weekends I have more flexibility and can spend more time with pets or do multiple visits throughout the day. I’m pretty consistent with my schedule, so it’s easy for me to plan around a pet’s routine and make sure they’re taken care of. I know every dog is a little different, so I try to stick as close as possible to whatever routine they’re used to. Whether that’s specific feeding times, walk schedules, or just how they like to hang out, I’ll follow what you leave for me. I’m pretty mindful in general, so I’m always making sure doors are locked, they’re not getting into anything they shouldn’t, and they’re safe and comfortable the whole time. I’ll keep you updated while you’re gone so you don’t have to worry, and I’ll treat your home and your pet with respect. My goal is for you to come back to a happy pet and everything exactly how you left it.
“I’m extremely grateful for her! I chose to try Rover for the first time after I felt guilty for their frequent boarding situation and just seeing the photos of them looking so calm and lovey really made my day! She went above and beyond taking care of them and I’m sure my kitties would love to see her again :)”
About: I provide dependable, attentive care and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I understand how important consistency and patience are while owners are away. I can help with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication reminders, litter box care, and giving pets plenty of attention and companionship. I’m especially focused on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free in their home environment, while also keeping owners updated with photos and communication throughout the stay. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m able to plan my days around walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and check-ins to make sure pets get consistent attention and care. I’m also reliable with communication and updates, so owners can feel comfortable knowing their pets are being well cared for while they’re away. I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and low-stress environment for every pet in my care. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any household rules or instructions. I make sure pets always have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention and supervision. I’m respectful of clients’ homes, keep communication open with regular updates and photos, and prioritize making pets feel secure and cared for while their owners are away.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have been taking care of family, friends, and neighbors dogs since I was 12. I love big dogs and small. I’m very active and love walking and running around with my pets. I’m a college student home for the summer taking remote summer classes so my schedule is extremely flexible and I’m available a majority of the week. I am surrounded by a large open grass yard and plenty of space in my home for inside or outdoor play. I also have a dog bed that I wash between every visit.
About: I've been dropping in to aid family and friends with their dogs, cats, and other pets since I was in high school, and have been online doing general pet services for the last 3 or so years now. I myself have 3 cats and a snake. I have experience with giving cats eye medication, oral pills, medication mixed with treats/food, and creams. For dogs I've given creams and medication mixed with food/treats. I'm currently doing freelance work so my schedule is pretty flexible. Other than my own pet's schedule, I'm happy to find time for your pet's needs. I always make sure to check in with my clients to ensure they feel comfortable with me in their house. Things like where they're comfortable with me going and doing, where the pet(s) are allow to be, any routines that need to be done, and anything else they'd like to precaution or worry about.
About: Hi! My name is Allison, and I would love to care for your fur family member! I have grown up around dogs and have been the primary caretaker for our family pets. Not only have I cared for our family dogs (labs & golden retrievers), but I have also dog-sat and walked dogs for other family members and friends since I was 10 years old. I have experience with other animals as well. I am currently taking a summer college course (M-Th mornings) and have late morining though early evening availability. I have some weekend availability as well. I believe compassion, respect, and structure are the keys to keeping your pet safe. My goal is to do what is right for the animals in my care while building a good relationship with their human parents. I will treat your fur family members and their homes with respect and care.
About: Hey there! As the daughter of a veterinarian, growing up around animals was a given so I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and health statuses (if your pet needs any specific care). I also have two cats of my own! I look forward to meeting your pets! I currently work a full time day job, so my availability at the moment is mostly evening/weekend, but certain circumstances may allow for additional availability depending. I’ll be sure to help your pets just as safe with me as they feel with you and try to maintain their normal routine to the best of my ability.
About: I’ve taken care of animals for just over 10 years. I’ve done house sitting, drop ins, and boarding for neighbors and friends. I have helped to train puppies, and taken care of senior dogs. I’ve also been in charge of bathing dogs, cats, and even horses! Currently I am working part-time, I am free early in the morning as well as after 3:00pm. I can house sit or board on the weekends! I have a big yard to play in! I also have a rambunctious 2 year old puppy who loves making new friends. I can easily crate your dog if needed. They will get lots of play and rest time. (Along with snuggles!)
About: I provide experienced, reliable dog care focused on dog walking and drop-in visits. I'm available for house sitting on the weekends. I grew up around working dogs, helping my grandfather and stepdad, who were coon dog haulers. From a young age, I was responsible for feeding dogs, cleaning kennels, and learning how to read behavior and body language. As an adult, I’ve worked with a wide range of dogs, including nervous and reactive dogs. I also fostered a dog with aggression issues, which gave me real experience with triggers, stress signals, and safe handling. I focus on structured walks and drop-in visits that support a dog’s natural needs—sniffing, movement, routine, and mental stimulation through enrichment activities. I am home-based and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate a variety of timing needs, especially mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on the day. Meet-and-greets are required to ensure safety and a good fit for every dog. I have a 5-year-old Springer Doodle who is social with most dogs, and I always prioritize safe introductions. I have plenty of time for walks and Drop in visits. I would love to play with your pups and spend quality time with them. I will treat your home with the utmost care and your pet with affection. You'll receive consistent updates and photos for complete peace of mind".
