“Angelee did a great job with our dog during his first “alone” time in the house during vacation. She reliably kept the routine and was super communicative, making sure we knew all was well. We’ll be sure to ask her again :)”

About: Hi friends! I am excited to be able to help you with your fur babies around the holiday season! I have 2 dogs, 2 horses, and 1 cat. I have my bachelors degree in equine science and I am a professional horse girl, I just came back from working for a horse trainer in Australia so I am home for the holidays! I am happy to care for any dog, cat, or barn animal! I am available pretty much whenever! I would be happy to discuss more details of my availability with you as well! Feel free to message me:) I can provide it all! From check ins to walks to pet sitting. I also don’t mind taking your pup to a dog park or on a hike if you wanted that too!
“Chay is wonderful! Appreciate the updates and great pictures when she spends time with my dog Pearl 😊 Means a lot when you have long days at work away from your pup!”

About: I've been taking care of animals (both cats and dogs) since childhood! Family pets are near and dear to my heart. I can provide quality care for your furry friends and provide prompt updates and photos when you are away from them. I have experience working with both cats and dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’m currently working part-time before starting medical school, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to offer dependable drop-in visits on both weekdays and weekends. I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s routine and make sure they feel cared for and comfortable while you're away. I care for pets in their own homes where they feel most comfortable. I offer reliable transportation to reach your home and can transport pets if needed. During drop-in visits, I provide loving attention, fresh food and water, playtime, and prompt updates with photos to keep you at ease. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and routine are always my priority.
“Delaney is very good with my dogs. They love her! She is always on time and does a great job! I highly recommend her for anyone needing some to help with their pets. Great personality and very professional!”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and truly love getting to understand what makes each one unique. I raised and fully trained my own puppy, who is now five years old, and recently completed a Dog Psychology class focused on reducing stress and promoting positive behavior. I’m also pursuing research in animal cognition, which helps me better understand how animals think, learn, and communicate. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and care. I’ve also looked after cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, turtles, and I currently have a seven-year-old leopard gecko. I treat every animal I care for with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own pets. As a college student with a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to spend with your pet throughout the day. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just hanging out for some company, I’m around and available. I know how important it is to keep pets feeling loved and comfortable while you’re away, and I genuinely enjoy the time I get to spend with them! When I care for pets, I treat them like they’re my own for the time I get to spend with them. I make sure they stick to their usual routine (feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles) so they feel comfortable and safe. I love sending photo updates throughout the day because I know how reassuring it is to see your pet happy while you’re away (and I just can’t resist snapping cute pictures!). As a college student, I truly relish any opportunity to have a “pet” for a little while. Being around animals brings me so much joy! Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I always make sure they get plenty of attention, love, and care.

“She’s amazing, so glad she came to the rescue last minute. Very bright cause I really didn’t know where I left the leash, or poop bags, but she was a savior today. Thank you so much! #recommend”

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 8 but began house sitting when I turned 16. I have experienced taking care of dogs, cats , horses and even chickens. while looking after your fur babies they will be given excellent care as if they were my own. A love to photograph animals so with my care come a free mini photoshoot. With your permission of course! My 1 year old black lab absolutely loves to play with others. So if your pup needs a buddy to burn off some energy she’s your pup . I work 6:30am to 2:30pm but I’m free the rest of the time to do pop in or walks. If I’m staying at your house I bring in my own food and drink. And stay with your fur baby the whole time. If I’m in home sitting I do a minimum of 3 30 min walks a day. 1 before work ,after work and before bed. And depending on your fur babies energy I’ll add in extra play time if needed. I’m stuck to strictly feeding schedules so whatever time you have them eat I’ll make sure to do they same. To help keep them in their normal routine. If I’m doing a drop in I can go walks /runs for about an hour unless you need me to take them for more time.
About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’ve helped my friend with everything from daily walks to overnight stays, and I always make sure each dog feels safe, happy, and understood. I’m patient with shy dogs, gentle with seniors, and playful with energetic pups. I follow feeding schedules closely, keep routines consistent, and make sure every dog gets plenty of exercise, bathroom breaks, and attention. Whether it’s a calm walk, fetch in the yard, or quiet cuddle time, I adjust to whatever your dog needs. I also provide frequent photo and video updates so you can feel connected while you’re away. Your dog will be cared for with love, respect, and the same attention I would give my own. I’m currently a graduate student with a very flexible schedule. I spend most of my time at home, so I’m able to check in on pets frequently and keep their routine consistent. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting throughout the week, including evenings and weekends. Your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, and care every day. I take safety very seriously and always follow your instructions exactly—whether it’s feeding, litter care, medication, or keeping doors secured. I’m calm, patient, and respectful of each pet’s space, especially shy or anxious animals. In your home, I make sure everything stays clean and comfortable, and I send frequent photo updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every pet with the same care and kindness I give my own.
About: I have experience with nearly every pet - from small animals to horses, and everything in between! I have researched for countless hours, bettering my knowledge to care for my furry (or not!) friends in the best way possible. I make my own schedule, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pet! I am very flexible and understanding, so I look forward to your pet being a part of my day! We all know what is best for our pets, so I will gladly follow all directions and care plans specific to your pet. I will update you as little or as often as you’d like. I will match the energy of your pet, so we will always have fun 🤩
About: I have my own 11 year old cat, and just took in a stray cat this year. I also had a cat and multiple dogs growing up. I have helped care for my friends young kittens when she was out of town, and also have offered support to family members - both cats and dogs. I have a full time corporate job that I work from home Monday-Friday. It is very flexible so I am able to offer support throughout the day. I won’t be offering pet care at my own home due to having my own cats. In terms of a clients home,I will be respectful of the home. Offer a safe & comfortable support for the animal, make sure they have everything they need, and give them some good human interaction! I bring a warm & soft energy with animals and build their trust :)
“Kara was willing to work with my schedule when I desperately needed her last minute! She detailed what went on during her walk and took great care of my baby.”

About: I am an engaging pet sitter while also providing a good amount of discipline in needed areas. I have had two goldendoodles for 6 years since they were puppies and take great care of them by always taking them to explore new walking trails and trying to teach them new tricks! I am currently in school however I have a fairly open schedule and am always looking to care for and meet new pets! I am usually free Mondays from 11-2:30, Tuesdays 1:30-10, Wednesday 11-10, Thursdays 11-6, Fridays 11-8, Saturdays 9-12, and Sundays all day! I am completely willing to cater to my clients needs for the service provided! I can take dogs for walks in multiple different areas and even possibly check in on dogs throughout the day. I do not currently have the space to board a pet as I live in an apartment but I hope to next year!
About: I’ve had pets for most of my life. I’ve had a cat for the last 8 years and I have had a dog for almost 2 years. I have experience giving cats and dogs medication as well as cleaning up after them. I love using Rover and wanted to return the favor. I work full time but I work from home two days a week and I’m available most weekends. I also tend to be available during some holidays. I have a puppy who loves new friends and is good with every dog he has met so far. I have a park right behind my house so it is easy to give your dog some exercise. If I’m in your home I’ll be sure to stick to your rules.
