About: I’ve been handling animals ever since I was 13, this includes cats, dogs, and even bunnies! (I had one that I let free roam). Cats and Bigger dogs are always a personal favorite but I truly love animals and even considered going into veterinary sciences! I can assure you, your animal is in great hands seeing as I have a cat and two dogs myself! I’m a virtual senior high school student with only two classes and my job only schedules me around two days each week, so I have literally all the time in the world to pet sit and I would love to see cute furry friends whenever I can during that free/down time! Whenever I’m at my Aunt and Uncles for up to a week dog sitting and house sitting for them, I make sure to feed both of their dogs and let them out at least every 1-2 hours especially after feeding them, and they stay outside for about 30mins-1 hour, but i don’t mind walking animals at all either! And of course I like to cuddle up with animals if they allow me too and give them play time as well as a little down time to cuddle up and be content!
“Emma was AMAZING! One of our dogs has a hard time being away from us but he took right to Emma. He ate his food and was very relaxed when we came home. She also took lots of pictures and videos of our dogs while we were away!”

“Cam took excellent care of our fur babies and home! She very attentive to their needs and special feeding requests. I was very impressed with how responsible she was and the level of care she took of our home while staying here. We will absolutely hire her again and would highly recommend!”

“Haven did such a great job taking care of our Libby while we were away! Libby was very happy when we got home, which I can’t say the same for previous times we’ve had to leave her. She took her on walks, played with her, and spent time with her which we really appreciated. We highly recommend Haven!”

“Catherine is the best! She is so sweet and intentional, and my sweet Knox had the best time with her. She even offers crafts, homemade treats, and paw-decures!! 💅🏼 Will be booking again”

“This was the first time we used Kathleen. She did a great job. It gave us peace of mind while we were visiting our son and daughter. To be at the birth of our first grandson. Thank you, Kathleen.”
About: As a husband and wife team, your pet gets double the love and supervision. We’re attentive, patient, and committed to following your pet’s routine the best we can to make them feel comfortable, just like at home My wife Sore works from home, so she’s here most days. You can be at peace knowing your pet(s) will get lots of attention, cuddles, potty breaks, and playtime! We have a big fenced yard for security and a nice deck for sunbathing! There’s plenty of room for exercise, if your pup enjoys the outdoors.
About: Growing up I had experience with a lot of types of animals, from cats, dogs, sheep, pigs, cows and horses. In my adult life, I have had a lab mix and have had 4 boxers (3 currently still in the home) and a siamese mixed cat. I learned a lot about dog behavior when I got my first boxer through training, and feel like that has helped me with other dogs too. Two of my current boxers are seniors and they take meds so I am familiar with those types of things and my other one is 8 months old so I am currently also in the puppy phases as well. I do have a full-time job. Evenings and weekends are the best time for me on some days. I often work from home later in the week so I can be flexible those days. I am definitely open to chatting about options. I will keep my calendar up to date based on my availability. If your pups are coming to my house, I have a fenced in yard. I do have a pool, but I go outside with all pups for safety reasons. If your dog loves to swim let me know! I also have a quiet neighborhood for a nice leashed walk. I do have a lot of stairs so if you have a senior dog that has mobility issues my house might not be the best option. If they go out on a leash this would be less of an issue b/c I can take them for a walk out front. I crate my puppy when I am gone, and can crate your dog when/if you would like me too. I would like any special instructions about medications/food/behavior etc that are specific to your pets. I would need any specific instructions for your in home stays with your pets.
About: Growing up we always had dogs in our family. My Experience in pet care is from having my own pets and caring for friends and families. I love animals and have over a decade of experience in caring for dogs, cats, horses, mules, donkey's and pigs. Now I just have my two dogs but the are like our family. I have 5 years experience caring for elderly dog (my own) that needed special care and medications. I am currently not working any other jobs at this time and will have plenty of time to spend with you sweet fur baby or babies. I have a fenced in back yard with 2 of my own fur babies. I love spending time with them in the back yard, going for walks and playing fetch. I live close to a nature trail with a lake and love to take the dogs for walks there. We love that outside time. Inside I have room to play with toys and chill with your buddies.
“Very professional and was very pleased with Lydia’s service. She set picture updates throughout our whole time away. Will def recommend her to anyone and will be using her again when we need a sitter!”

About: I am the daughter of one amazing veterinary technician, I couldn't resist joining the field myself. Growing up, we had almost every animal you could think of, and I love all creatures big and small. In my 15 years of veterinary experience, I've had the pleasure of caring for so many of these wonderful creatures. I am very patient and understanding when it comes to animals, and I think they sense it. I know the do's and don'ts for many animals, especially cats and dogs. I've given subcutaneous fluids, insulin, made sure medications are given on time. I am capable of noticing signs in animals that would require a trip to the vet, or when they are needing a little extra T.L.C. I would be honored to care for your loved ones. Thank you for considering me. I make my own schedule at work, and I work from home a lot, which makes my schedule highly flexible. So your baby(s) will never have to be in need and they will receive the full time care that they deserve. I have a fenced in yard that my dog absolutely LOVES to run and play in. The house I moved into has 1 unoccupied fully furnished bedroom and my bedroom is always open for snuggles at bedtime. My house is my pets house, they are allowed on the furniture, and there are toys, beds, and blankets for them everywhere. However, if there are certain rules and training that needs to be followed I will be more than happy to accommodate. My Violet (45lb Black Mouth Curr mix) is only a year old so she has a lot of fun playing with other dogs big and small, she sweet, kind, and gentle. My cat Thackery Binx is an 8 year old cat so he normally just sleeps in his cat tree or sees what I'm up to in the kitchen. I have plenty of room to accommodate your furry loved ones, and all the comforts of home. My pets are fully vaccinated and I would be happy to provide their paperwork upon request.

About: I have owned dogs ever since I was a little kid. I currently have 3 dogs who are all great dogs. I am currently a teacher but like hanging out with dogs in my spare time. I have worked for a dog boarding facility for 5 years and have all the training needed to care for your pups! I am a full time teacher but wake up extra early to walk the dogs. When I am at work the dogs will spend time inside I have a fenced in back yard where your dogs could spend time playing. I do not allow dogs to stay outside while I am gone
“Jessica was amazing! She kept us informed and sent pics! she was so sweet and kind and I know our pupps loved her. The next day when she was gone they went straight to her “room” when they woke up. That made me so happy knowing they were very well loved on. She even made sure the floors and bedding were clean when we came home and left the sweetest pup report cards! I hope she will always take care of our babies🩵”
About: I would love to walk/ hike with your pet, care for it at your home, or drop in to let them out. I have always loved animals ever since I was little. My first job was a pet sitting service, I was frequently asked to watch neighbors dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, etc. My friends often rely on me to take care of their animals while out of town and I have experience with older dogs as well as puppies. My dog passed away earlier this year and I won't be ready for anther dog anytime soon, but I would love to share love with your animals. I work seasonally and am currently off for my winter season. I would love to spend time with your animals either at your home or on walks/hikes! I can not watch pets in my own home but in my client's home I make sure to follow their rules and ask the important questions up front. I make sure to not leave pets alone too long and to be there for feeding times and to keep them company at night.
“Alyssa is absolutely the BEST! She goes above and beyond for your baby. Our sweet Pig Pig adores her and we have even booked again for this weekend! We are so blessed to have Miss Alyssa as she is extremely loving and compassionate towards the babies. She is an angel and Pig Pig misses her already!”

“Alexis was great with my babies while I was gone! My dog does not take easily to new people, but she relaxed around Alexis pretty quickly in our pre-sitting meet up. I also didn't have to hunt down my cat like I usually do when sitters are over...which is a change. It's not them, but Xena doesn't like anyone...lol. She came in before I even had to look for her! Alexis is a good communicator and sent photos regularly to let me know how they were doing. I'll definitely hire her again.”

Chalkville pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kathleen did an excellent job following our directions and taking care of our pups. House was just as clean as we left it and pups were in good spirits. Kathleen provided us daily pictures and updates and was quick to respond to our communications! I would definitely use Kathleen again!

Sarah was absolutely wonderful! She is super communicative, very detail oriented, and followed all of our many instructions perfectly. She did a great job administering medications and kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We never once worried about whether our dogs were being cared for and loved. She handled our three dogs, each with different ages and temperaments, with so much patience and care, and it was clear she genuinely cared about them. We came home to happy, well cared for pups and a home that was clearly well looked after, and we would absolutely book with her again! Highly recommend!
