“Crystal is absolutely wonderful! She took detailed notes and took care of my boy exactly how I asked her to. Most importantly, she played with him a lot. She was neat & clean & was respectful of my home. She is delightful to work with. She is the best cat sitter ever!”

“This was our 2nd time having Sheila stay with our hyper and energetic pit mix. She was responsive, clean, and every helped with other household things (skimmed pool, watered garden). Our pup takes medication which was given as prescribed. Sheila sent photos and updates and I felt very at ease knowing our house and pup were in good hands. We will definitely be using Sheila again and recommend her to anyone.”

“Jessalyn was AMAZING. She was so thorough in taking notes in our meet and greet, and went out of her way to make our dog comfortable without forcing any interaction. She sent regular updates and adorable pictures, and we felt so good knowing Beanie was having a good time. Our dog even ate the first day Jessalyn was there, which isn’t typical when we aren’t home. Knowing she had experience with reactive dogs was also a huge relief. She is an incredible find, and anyone would be fortunate to book her to care for their pets! We have already rebooked!”

“Rowan was amazing! We have two dogs and three cats that she took great care of. We got pictures and updates everyday we were gone. She played with everyone and gave them all plenty of love! I definitely recommend her to take care of your fur babies!”

“Cian was great with our dogs while we were away. He was on time for the pups and kept us apprised of Colby’s upset stomach. The house was in great shape when we got back as well. We could have done with a few more photo updates but other than that we were very happy with Cian.”

“Elizabeth is such a sweet and caring dog sitter. Our more anxious big dog took to her at the Meet and Greet which made me comfortable about the actual stay. She was very honest and accommodating of all our questions during the M&G too. She was very flexible on our departure day because we were delayed due to weather. The actual stay went well, no issues with the dogs or house. The house was all tidy when we returned so I couldn't tell she stayed for 5 days. Plus she took such cute pictures of our dogs while we were away. Def recommend her!”

“Andrea did an amazing job watching our 4 month old blue heeler pup 'Tillie' and our low maintenance dude cat 'Pickles'. She was at our home for almost 12 hours and kept the pup from getting into trouble. She's still in that biting/chewing stage and loves electrical cords. Andrea sent me photos of the pets throughout the day and I was extremely assured that we had the right person to watch them both. Thank you Andrea! I'm looking forward to the next time!”

About: My first “job” was taking care of neighbors beloved pets - from Dogs to Cats to Fish. Now that I am all grown up, I have two dogs of my own and have also fostered for CARE. I am experienced in giving medication - my coonhound has both epilepsy and allergies. I am also experienced with reactive dogs that may need extra attention. If there is one thing I have learned from fostering is that you must have patience and empathy. I look forward to making new animal friends! I am currently working full time, however I keep my availability updated and my location radius closer to home to ensure your pets get my full attention. I am dependable when it comes to caring for the fur babies - I always treat them as my own. I also do not hesitate to reach out if there is anything that my gut tells me is not right. I am the type of person to double check things, whether it is locking up, ensuring the yard is safe, or there is enough fresh water available.
“Olivia was awesome with our pups! We just relocated and needed to find a new dog sitter quickly for a business trip and we’re glad we found her. She took great care of our boys, took them for walks and gave them all the attention they needed. Will definitely be booking with her again! :)”

“Taylor stayed with our dog for two nights over the weekend. She gave her so much love and attention, of course communicating with us throughout her whole stay. Taylor was amazing!”

“Elizabeth was absolutely amazing to work with, easy to communicate with and was comfortable taking care of our senior dog. She went above and beyond and we are so very grateful for her and will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Nikka is absolutely wonderful! So great to have her watch my kitty, she was friendly and wonderful to work with! Took such good care of my kitty, sent me pictures and was very communicative! I would rebook her in an instant!”

“Lily is excellent. She took excellent care of our home - during a blizzard no less and even better care of our dogs. She is kind, and very responsive. I cannot say enough good things about lily. We highly recommend her.”

Carthage pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sophie was fantastic! We have quite the crew (3 dogs, 3 cats) which she handled like a champ. We didn’t worry at all going away for the weekend knowing Sophie was at home holding down the fort. She was very responsive and so easy to work with, we will definitely schedule her again in the future. All the animals loved her immediately during our meet & greet!

Cara did a fantastic job taking care of our home and dog for a week. Our house was spotless and our dog was so happy and calm when we came home. She is not only responsible and great with communication, she is also a lovely person. She even left us a sweet note. We will definitely use her again!

My 10 night overseas trip left Winnie at home alone with a dog sitter for the first time. She’s cautious and lacks confidence, so I was pretty concerned. Katherine communicated daily, sending pictures and updates which really eased my worries. She is very responsible, reliable, and kind. Katherine loved my girl as if she was her own, even getting Winnie to sleep with her at night! I highly recommend Katherine as a dog sitter and hope she will be available the next time I travel.

I can’t recommend Konane enough! She took amazing care of our two dogs—attentive, communicative, responsible, and clearly a true animal lover. We came home to happy, relaxed pups and regular updates that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Phenomenal job from start to finish! We will definitely be using Konane regularly!
