“I have used Amelia’s services multiple times now. My cats are getting quite used to her. Normally they hide but they come out for her every time which makes me very happy. Everything is neat and tidy and taken care of while I’m gone and I know that my cats are in good hands. Thank you so much. I will definitely book you again!”
“Isabella did a wonderful job dropping in and checking on my 3 dogs and cat. She came by to meet them and me before the booking, which was great. Also, my kitty needs medication, and I felt confident knowing that Isabella would be able to administer it. I received updates and pictures, so I knew my babies were in good hands.”
“Victoria is very personal and reliable. I met her for the first time and could see that she is very good with animals. I appreciated her communicating the time frame with arriving to the home. I would recommend her services.”
About: My household has always had a furry friend in it since the day I was born from small ankle biters like Chihuahuas to hefty cuties like my current Bully Pit that I can safely wrestle in some horseplay. Puppies, seniors, we don't discriminate 'round here! I don't mind getting my hands dirty and have small experience in clicker training younger pups along with an energy to match whichever personality I'm given. A boundless Collie? We can play all day! A sleepy old Bassett? We can chill with some TV. I'm not above being put to work either. Give me a litter box to clean. Give me medicine and I'll make sure it's getting swallowed. Toss a cat my way as well why doncha? I worked as a cat caretaker during my fall and spring semesters in Auburn University, as well as own a lovely kitten named Autumn, so having a feline to shake things up would be a nice treat! Trust me, my hands have a good pain tolerance. Beyond that, I know it costs major bucks to look after your pets. Or pay someone ELSE too. Sometimes a week stay for a pet can run up to $500! That's why you come to me. I offer affordable rates because I'm more concerned with the passion than the money. I have multiple pets of my own and I know the chip they can put in my wallet just from vet visits! So I won't let it get in your way! 🤠 I've graduated happily from Auburn University with a degree in Animal Sciences and am settling into a new job. This means that while I'm happy to take on new clients, my schedule is sporadic as it's determined on a weekly basis. It also means I will be gone for many hours at a time. My current work schedule and thus how long I'd be busy for July 28-Aug 3 is: Mon: 5-9:30 pm Tue: 4-9:30 Wed: 5-9:30 Thurs: Free Fri: Free Sat: 1-9:30 pm Sun: 10 am-7 pm Safety is a non-negotiable when it comes to our furry friends. Just like I do with my own pals, I stay by them at all times when outside and encourage their attention with toys or loving scritches when they're not doing their business. If push comes to shove, I am capable of safely wrestling an overzealous dog into calming down or tightening the 'ol leash if need be. With cats, responsibly scruffing rarely fails. Inside, unless stated otherwise where they're allowed to park themselves, I stay with my little friends on the floor and can crate them if specified to do so when it's bedtime. If they're free roamers, I let them tag along where I go! Except the kitchen. I also welcome animals who require daily or periodic medication. Bear in mind I charge $10 per day of administering medication, and it would cover all required meds for that day. Rest assured your friend will be taken care of!
“This was my first experience using rover. I was worried as I was out of the country for a week. However, Maegan exceeded my expectations. She was great with communication and updates. I knew my cat was in good hands and I didn’t have to worry. I will definitely be using her in the future. Thanks again!”
“Callie did drop in visits for our two cats while we were on vacation, she went above and beyond for their care and even water my plants.We were able to relax knowing they were in good hands.We highly recommend her.”
“I'm very happy with how my two dogs were cared for. One has a persistent problem with one of his ears, and she was very consistent with looking after it and giving him his medication when needed. Probably more consistent than I am normally. Usually by the time I get home his infection has gotten worse and requires a lot of attention to get it back under control. But this time he was his usual self when we got home!”

“Brenda F. did a great job with my 3 cats. She made sure they were well which was difficult since 2 were always hiding. I appreciate all that she did for my cats!”
About: I have many pets at home (10 to be exact) and they are the best part of each day. I would love to get to know yours as well! I just took a break from college, so I have a lot of free time. I am still available on weekends but not full time because of work. Weekdays are totally free! My main goal is to make your pets feel safe and comfortable with me. I will do what’s needed to make them feel as though they can trust me.
About: I've raised several puppies into adulthood throughout my life and I have experience in dog sitting that I have done for friends and family through the years. I'm currently searching for a new career, so I have plenty of time to take care of animals. I'm looking forward to a new experience! I have a fenced yard, and two small dogs to keep your pets company. I can also crate dogs if necessary! I have one big dog that stays in the back yard and in his crate.
“I am very happy with the service and care Kaleigh provided my two cats. I definitely recommend Kaleigh as a cat sitter. Kaleigh's courteous, pleasant and professional manner helped ease my mind so I could enjoy my trip.”
About: I'm new to pet sitting but have taken care of my furry friend a few times and really liked it. I’m calm, responsible, and make sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I'm home most of the time, so I have a very open schedule. I can give pets lots of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. At my home, visiting dogs have their own space away from my dog. I have two cats who are used to dogs, too. Since our yard isn’t fenced, dogs will be on a leash whenever we’re outside. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re here.

“La’kyerah has been looking after my dog, Mocha for almost 3 years and she is one of the best pet sitters I’ve personally every met! She goes above and beyond when she takes care of our mocha and she follows our every request with so much excitement even if it’s a little extra(such as dressing her (mocha) up in little outfits and sending us pictures of her just because we miss her! She’s also the only person mocha will take any form of medication from and we pet parents know how big of a deal that is!! She literally the perfect sitter!!!!!”

Caleb L.
“Caleb has loved animals since he was a young child. Our family had dogs and cats while he was growing up. He has always been drawn to animals and loved our pets. Dogs, especially, have been important in his life. We have our second Goldendoodle now and have had Labs, a cocker, and a shepherd mix. He loves big dogs but he has a sweet cockapoo now. He has loved them all. He has experience taking care of animals and would take good care of your fur-babies”
