“Charlotte was on time and professional, taking care of my golden retriever Honey like she was her own! She took her out to go potty, played with her tennis ball and gave her lots of love and attention. Honey was very happy and I would definitely recommend Charlotte to watch your furry friend.”

“Cecelia did a great job! Even grabbed my packages from the porch. Lucy was nice and relaxed when I got home. She's only been with me 5 months. She's an older shelter rescue. I wasn't sure what to expect. I will hire Cecelia again.”


“Megan is an amazing sitter who took great care of my special needs dog when I had to leave town for work. She gave him his insulin without any issues and gave me great notes on how the visit went. She went above and beyond in every visit and she is at the top of my list for future needs. She really kept my heart at ease when I couldn’t be home and made me feel good about leaving him in her care.”
“Morgan was so thoughtful and communicative and cares just as much for my pet family as I do! She was very attentive to all of the little things and quirks of my Delilah’s routine and made sure to send me photos or questions if she needed to. What a joy! I will definitely recommend her to anyone.”

“Melissa was absolutely amazing. She was prompt, CLEARLY concerned that she had all the information she needed to take care of my cats, and flexible about some last minute complications with my plans. Melissa sent me awesome pictures and notes each day, and had my shy, timid boy eating up her affection. I would not hesitate to recommend her.”

“Andrea has been so good to my mini dachshund. My dog is sometimes anxious, stubborn, and can lash out a bit if she is triggered. But Andrea has remained patient and given me frequent updates on her visits. She is great!!”


“Paige was amazing with our pups! Loved the pictures and the updates. Our dogs can be a handful, very loving and playful but a handful, haha. Paige took great care of them, was on time, and did a great job. Definitely book her!”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life! I love animals and currently have an Anatolian Shepherd who is 4. I am good with big and small dogs. I also have a cat! I work part-time with great flexibility for mornings & afternoons even some evenings, allowing me to easily adapt to your pet's specific routine, potty breaks, and daily exercise needs anytime. Whether in my home or yours, safety and trust are my top priorities. I strictly follow your pet's exact feeding, potty, and medication routines to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In your home, I respect your space and keep environments completely secure. In mine, I ensure a fully pet-proofed, supervised setting, keeping you updated with photos along the way.
“Sandy made us feel at ease while we were away on our honeymoon for two weeks. She made sure our cat got played with, got some cuddles, and cleaned his litter box every visit. Her updates were very thorough and she paid close attention to him to make sure everything went smoothly while we were gone. She sent plenty of photos that made us know he was being loved and cared for. Would absolutely book her for our next trip!”

“Mimi was WONDERFUL with Enzo. I had not planned on adopting so soon, but fell in love with the little man! I had business travel already scheduled so I needed someone quickly and who would give him a little extra care since he’s new and just a baby. I will definitely book them again to watch him in my home! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”

About: I have had dogs throughout my life, but over the past 7 years I have taken care of several dogs for up to a week at a time, staying at their homes. This has included a couple of senior dogs requiring extra care. I now have my own dog and can’t stay overnight, but would love to check in or walk dogs of any kind! I’m in medical school, and my current schedule is quite flexible. Right now, I can do mornings sometimes, and my evenings and weekends are often open/flexible. I will be completely respectful of your home and ensure that I’m spending quality time with your dog. I’m happy to play with them, let them out, and/or take them for walks. I’m comfortable getting a dog into their crate, feeding them, etc. and tailoring their care however you want.
About: I’ve taken care of pets for family and friends for as long as I can remember. I love going on walks and seeing new parts of the city and would love to have a companion on my adventures. Our family dog passed a little over a year ago and I miss having a pet in my life. I will care for your pet as if they were my own. I am currently on summer break from work and would love to take care of your pet in my free time. My schedule is fairly open and flexible. I have a fenced in yard in a quiet neighborhood and own a crate if needed for their comfort. I foster dogs so I have raised food and water dishes, a bed, and other essentials to make their stay comfortable.
“Absolutely fantastic experience with our pet sitter, Erika. She did an amazing job caring for my two cats, who are usually very wary of new people. By the end of her time with them, one of my cats even let her hold him which is a huge milestone and really shows how patient, calm, and gentle she was with both of them. Erika was very professional throughout, followed all instructions carefully, and always replied quickly, which really helped ease my stress while I was away. I felt completely confident knowing my two cats were in great hands. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”

About: My connection with animals involves compassion, patience and communication. I have experience taking dogs for walks and home sitting with pets for an extended period. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide pet care part-time. I’m generally most available on weekends, with additional availability throughout the week. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for every pet in my care. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions and respect the pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks and any other needs they might have.
About: I grew up in a home full of pets, ranging from dogs and cats to rodents and reptiles, which only encouraged my love for animals. Over the last decade, that interest has lead me to pursue multiple paths in the pet care field. I have learned how to care for many types of animals, how to provide a safe and stress-free environment for pets, and how to keep an open line of communication with pet parents. The greatest takeaway, however, has been building a better understanding of animal behavior and how to interact with everyone at their own pace! At the moment, I am available for two drop-in visits per day, Monday through Sunday. I am unavailable at specific times certain days of the week. Those are: Tuesdays 9:30am-11:30am, Saturdays and Sundays (and some Fridays) 8am-10am Your pet's routine and comfort are my priorities! That leads me to focus on leash safety, home safety and security, and food/medication schedules. Regular communication is important to me, as it is the best way to ensure all needs are met.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Carthage is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Carthage
Hannah went above and beyond when taking care of Lady! Kept in contact with me, asking questions if needed. She gave Lady lots of love and care! She took the best pictures of my lil Lady, including the process of giving Lady her daily pill and nebulizer! She made sure to be gentle and accommodating, (cuz Lady can be shy at first) which led Lady to feel comfortable and trusting around her! Did amazing taking care of my elderly cat with medical needs! :)

Charlotte was so awesome! She learned how to do Stonks' insulin and gave him a lot of love and attention. When he ended up getting sick, she was extremely communicative and took extra time out of her day to watch him and keep me updated as I made the trek back home. Would absolutely use her again!

Eric went above and beyond for my two kitties! He is great and takes phenomenal pictures!! He took excellent care of my babies and even offered help outside of caring for my animals when my home unexpectedly flooded from a severe rain storm. I would highly recommend him to anyone!

Hailey was amazing! We really missed our cats on our trip and Hailey sent multiple pictures everyday. We were so excited to see them playing and snuggling with her each day. Hailey provided a variety of activities for the cats, including playing with different toys and providing stimulation like opening the windows. We really appreciated her help!
