About: I've been around animals my entire life and currently care for two horses, a donkey, and a dog as part of my daily routine on our ranch. Growing up, I was surrounded by dogs, cats, and several reptiles, giving me experience with a wide variety of animals and their unique needs. Caring for animals is more than a responsibility for me—it's something that brings me genuine fulfillment and helps keep me grounded. From feeding, grooming, and exercising animals to monitoring their health and well-being, I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and attentive care. As a pet sitter, I strive to provide the same level of love, safety, and attention that I give my own animals every day. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their regular routine, I will make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you're away. I am reliable, trustworthy, and committed to treating every pet as if they were part of my own family. Pet care is already a major part of my daily routine. Early every morning, I get up early to feed my two horses, donkey, and dog. I make time to check in with each of them, give them attention, and make sure they're happy and comfortable. I also ensure all water troughs are full, muck stalls and runouts, and provide turnout time in designated pastures for grazing, exercise, and enrichment when appropriate. In the evenings, I bring the horses back in, separate them into their individual stalls so they can eat safely, feed everyone again, check that their environment is secure for the night, and close up the barn. Caring for animals every day has taught me the importance of consistency, attention to detail, and maintaining a reliable routine. Because animal care is already built into my daily schedule, caring for clients' pets fits naturally into my day. After completing my morning ranch chores, I have the flexibility to visit and care for other pets, and I treat them with the same attention and care I give my own animals. I enjoy making each pet part of my routine and ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I believe every pet is happiest when their routine is respected, so I take the time to learn each pet's needs and follow the owner's instructions closely. Whether I am caring for a pet in my home or in a client's home, my goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience. For drop-in visits, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, receive exercise and bathroom breaks as needed, and get plenty of attention and companionship. I also monitor their behavior and overall well-being so I can quickly notice if anything seems unusual. If requested, I am happy to provide updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they are away. Having experience caring for a variety of animals—including dogs, cats, reptiles, horses, and a donkey—I understand that every animal has its own personality and comfort level. Some pets want lots of playtime and affection, while others prefer a calmer approach and space to relax. I adapt my care to what makes each pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive reliable, attentive care while their family is away.

“This was my first time using Rover. Riley came to meet us before we left on vacation, which was reassuring. It was nice to know we were in good hands! Riley always spent time with our cat, Lexi, even when Lexi was not being the best company! Riley is dependable and was great with Lexi!”

“She saved me and took care of my girl while I was out on emergency job I found out about that morning. I feel so much better when she’s with my dog”

“Sara was fantastic! She came over before our scheduled day to meet our dogs and familiarize herself with our dogs schedule and details for their routine. We have never hired a dog service before and we’re apprehensive at first. The day of service she kept us informed and even sent pictures of our fur babies to let us know how they’re doing. We felt comfortable knowing Sara was tending to them. We definitely recommend hiring her services and will be using Rover and requesting Sara for future dog sitting services. :)”

About: I've been a pet/house sitter for about 10 years, I started when I was a teenager helping my family friends and neighbors to now as an adult. I've grown up my whole life surrounded by animals and I couldn't imagine it any other way. Love connecting with the pets and fellow animal lovers! I do my sitting job full time so I'm available for more attentive care and easy contacting. I do house sit as well if you'd like me to stay with your pet overnight for a peace of mind and comfort of the animals. I don't like to overlap my jobs so that I can give each person and their pets my full attention and presence. I'm always very aware of animals boundaries and environment, wheather that is separate feeding or toy aggression. Taking any necessary walks or have play time to keep their energy and spirits up. Also, I always try to keep everything as you left it. I always clean up after myself and the animals if needed, I'm consistent with any schedule given, and I also give frequent updates including pictures of your pets so you know they're doing good!

About: I have been in the pet food industry for three years, I used to leash train puppies, and I have been dog sitting/cat watching for three years as well. I have full availability on the weekends and have some flexibility during the week, specifically weeknights Monday through Thursday. I love doing check ins, walks, and housesitting. I respect peoples things, and appreciate when there are written instructions. I don’t do boarding because I have a Cat that does not do well in stressful environments. However, I am fine doing multiple check-in as long as it works for you and your pet.

“Carol does an outstanding job as a car giver for my cat. I highly recommend her!”

“This was our first experience using Rover.com, and we couldn't have been happier! Our sitter, Elaine, is terrific! Not only did she capture amazing pictures of our two Bengal cats, she even managed to win over Shiloh, who normally runs and hides under the bed whenever a stranger comes into our home. My husband and I could hardly believe our eyes when we watched the video of Shiloh letting Elaine pet her. It was nice, too, to come home to a clean and tidy area where the food dishes are as our cats always like dropping their food on the floor before eating. I highly recommend Elaine.”

“I can’t say enough about Lainey and her care of our pets June 3rd -19th. She is a very responsible, kind and diligent. Lainey understood how important this was for us, and she clearly cares very much for the animals in her care. Communication was fantastic right from the start and throughout our trip. Lainey went above and beyond our expectations. and we would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone trustworthy to treat your pets as family. Thank you Lainey!”

About: Tailored pet care with over 30 years of experience. I provide a warm and nurturing environment, ensuring that you and your pet feel loved and protected. I work full-time in a position that offers the flexibility to work from home, allowing me to split my time between the office and the comfort of my own space. On average, I work from home about 50% of the time, which gives me a great balance of productivity and personal time. My office is just a short drive away, so I’m never far from home and can easily make the commute whenever needed. This arrangement allows me to be present for both work and home life, ensuring I can stay connected while also enjoying the benefits of a flexible schedule. I live on a peaceful, country property spanning three acres, surrounded by nature and wide-open spaces. The entire property is securely fenced, ensuring a safe and enclosed environment where your pets can roam freely and explore to their hearts' content. With plenty of room to run, play, and enjoy the outdoors, it's an ideal setting for furry companions to stretch their legs and soak up the fresh air. Whether it's chasing after a ball or simply lounging in the sun, your pets will have all the space they need to feel at home.

About: Your pups new bestie! I have had animals most of my life growing up since childhood and was raised with how to properly care for them. I also have a dog that I love so much! I thoroughly enjoy walks, runs, hikes, and playing with him. I am a big dog person! I currently work part time and am home most of the time. I’m usually home a lot as most of my work can be done from home. The flexibility is very nice and works perfectly with having dogs in our home! We currently have our own dog and so caring for yours will fit naturally into the flow we already have going! I have a fenced yard, where my pup and yours can play as much as they want! We have trails and parks near by for walks and runs, if you’d like for your pup to have exercise in those ways as well.

“Justin is easy to work with and a great communicator. We appreciated that he got back to us right away to confirm his availability and provided twice daily updates on our dogs. We won’t hesitate to recommend him to our friends and neighbors. Thanks Justin!”
