About: I’ve loved animals my whole life, especially dogs. I’ve been around them since I was a kid, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Over the years I’ve helped take care of family pets, neighbors’ dogs, and friends’ pups—feeding, walking, bathing, playing, and making sure they feel safe and loved. I’m comfortable with different breeds and personalities, and I pay close attention to each dog’s needs and routine. Your pet will be treated like family with patience, kindness, and lots of care. As a fellow pet parent, I always want to provide the best care possible. My rates reflect the time, love, and attention I give each pet, along with the platform’s service fees I work from home, so pets get to be part of my daily routine—aka my favorite coworkers! I take plenty of breaks for belly rubs, walks, treats, and playtime. Since I’m around all day, your pet gets lots of attention and very little alone time. My flexible schedule makes it easy to keep them happy, entertained, and feeling right at home. I like to take the time to make sure every pet in my care feels safe, comfortable, and right at home. I provide a clean, pet-friendly space and a fully fenced yard where dogs can play, explore, and get their energy out while staying secure. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including scheduled feedings, fresh water, and any needed medications. Whether we’re inside relaxing or outside adventuring, I keep a close eye on them to ensure they’re happy, healthy, and well cared for.
“Aubrey is seriously a dog whisperer!! Our dogs are super skittish around new people and from the moment our meet and greet started we knew it was a perfect fit!! I would recommend her a million times over!!! She goes above and beyond to make sure your pups are well taken care of and makes sure to send a tons of pictures while she’s watching them!!”

“Cheryl was amazing! I couldn't have picked a better person to sit with my baby while being out of town! She gave me daily updates to let me know how my kitty was doing! I would highly recommend Cheryl!! Thanks again!”

About: I am training to be a dog trainer so I could help train you dogs/cats. I don't have any dogs of my own right now but I would love to help others people and their pets. I would love to take care of pets. I will only stay at your house with your pet if you need me to or would like me to. I can walk them as long as it isn't too hot or too cold for them. When pet sitting I could help teach you pets how to do new tricks.
“Lucy cares so much for my bratty little terrier. We've used her multiple times and my dog enjoys having her around after she realizes I'm not coming right back. Can't say enough good things about Lucy.”

About: I’ve had a dog all growing up and want to take care of yours as if they’re my own. No matter the size, I want to be the best sitter I can be for them and for you! I’m available mornings, lunch and evenings to make sure your dog is well taken care of while you’re gone. I have lots of free time to make sure they are loved and taken care of! I’m used to making sure that your dog enjoys their walk, bathroom break or anything else while making sure they are safe from running away, other people or other dogs! You can sleep peacefully knowing they’re in good hands!
“Our dog is not easy and not good with people. Amber won her over AND truly cares about our dog. Amber always does the little things to make sure all is good. Good communication and care.”

About: For over 10 years, I loved and cared for my own beloved dogs before they passed away a few years ago, and for the past 4 years, I have been occasionally sitting for my neighbor's dog. I have a 6-year-old daughter and a 7-year-old son who share my deep love for animals, so your pup will get plenty of gentle affection and enthusiastic playtime from our family! In our home, your fur baby will have a secure, fenced yard to explore. Whether they prefer high-energy fun or just lounging around and getting belly rubs, we adapt to whatever makes your dog feel safest and most comfortable. I am a Special Education teacher currently on summer break, which means I have a highly flexible schedule and open availability! My own children are in summer camp Monday through Friday during the day, giving me plenty of dedicated, uninterrupted time to focus entirely on your pet's routine, walks, and care. I am available for boarding and daytime companionship, ensuring your fur baby gets plenty of attention and love. As a SPED teacher, I bring patience, structure, and deep reliability into my pet care. I offer a very secure environment with a fully fenced yard for safe playtime. Because my husband works night shifts and sleeps during the day, our home maintains a wonderfully calm, quiet, and peaceful atmosphere during the daytime hours—perfect for dogs who get stressed by loud noises. In the evenings and weekends, my 6 and 7-year-old children join the fun, and they are incredibly gentle and respectful animal lovers. Your pet will receive 100% of our family's care and focus!
About: I personally have grown up taking care of all kinds of pets. I also completely understand the importance of taking care of others animals like they are my own.

I do have a job that I attend but can still provide care and potty breaks in between. I currently have a fenced yard. As well as I do have a dog that is 2 that would love a companion to play with.
“This was my first time using Rover in my new area, and I am so grateful that Holly was the one taking care of my dogs! Holly was punctual, responsive and really cared about taking care of my animals. She even brought in a package that was delivered which was very nice of her. I would 100% recommend Holly and will requesting her again!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies and playful kittens to senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, cleaning litter boxes, and maintaining routines that help pets feel safe and relaxed. What sets me apart is my reliability and communication—I keep owners updated and make sure each pet gets consistent, attentive care. I also have experience with basic puppy training (potty training, leash manners) and understand the unique needs of cats, as well as senior pets who may need slower-paced care and closer monitoring. I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m able to maintain consistent routines for pets, whether that means early morning walks, midday visits, or evening care. I plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m caring for, making sure they get reliable attention, exercise, and companionship every day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk routines, medications, and any specific preferences your pet has. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their own environment by giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I’m also respectful of your home—keeping things clean, secure, and exactly as you left them. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I always double-check doors, gates, and leashes, and I stay aware of each pet’s behavior to ensure they’re happy and safe at all times. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands while you’re away.

About: I currently have a cat and understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pet. I have worked in nursing homes and provided home healthcare for veterans which has taught me patience, responsibility, and attention to detail. I am also currently attending Wichita State University to earn my degree in Elementary Education. Between caring for people and my love for animals, I am committed to making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. Whether your pup needs a walk, or cat needs playtime, or extra attention while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. 🐶🐈⬛💕 I’m currently working part-time while attending Wichita State University, but I’m working toward making pet care my full-time focus. My schedule is flexible, and I do my best to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet care throughout the week; I’m happy to help whenever I can. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. As both a pet owner and someone with experience caring for others in nursing homes and home health settings, I understand the importance of trust, responsibility, and attention to detail. I will follow your pet’s routine, respect any special instructions, and make sure they receive plenty of care and attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident while you’re away. 🐾💕
About: I’ve worked at a doggy daycare and volunteered at the humane society- I have also had dogs and cats for 17 years of my life! Currently, I have purposely left my schedule completely open for pet care during the week. I am available day or night, 7 days a week. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog in my home. I am very good at reading dog body language and knowing their limits while caring for them.
About: I’ve always had cats and dogs growing up and was even around more exotic pets like bunnies and snakes. I love animals especially dogs and cats and have even fostered cats for the humane society in the past. I don’t own an animal due to working full time and moving frequently. I work full time so I can board pets on the weekends from Friday - Sunday most of the time. Occasionally on long weekends as well. I can also check on pets after work. I do not have any pets at the moment but may start to foster cats in the future. I have rooms to keel animals separate if needed. I also have a fenced in backyard.
