“Marissa was awesome. She loved our pups so much when we were away. We came home to a clean house and happy pups. Allie was telling me all about it. She sent pictures daily and responded when immediately when I texted her. So glad we finally found our go to sitter.”

“Stephen is very experienced and mature, not to mention friendly. We only needed to him to be a companion initially, but we will trust him with much more complex situations if one arises.”

“Brady was fantastic. He communicated with us throughout our entire trip letting us know how Holly was doing and making she we knew she was happy and well cared for. He took care of and respected our home. We would not hesitate to have him back!”

About: I have loved dogs since adopting my rescue dog when I was a child. Ever since then I have learned a lot about being a pet owner! I can walk, bathe, play with, feed, and love on your sweet fur babies! I am also able to administer medicine if needed & I am open to learning any special care your pet may need! I was previously a veterinary assistant for 2 years, and have a bachelors in Animal Science. I have taken care of many of my neighbors animals, including cats and dogs all sizes. I can change litter and love on cats as well! I am able to go on long walks and I love to be outside and active with pets. I also love fetch! I have a flexible schedule most days and reliable transportation every day. I can’t wait to meet your pups!! I work full time, but have flexible mornings Tuesday and Thursday, and shortened days Wednesday and Fridays. My weekends are typically open and I am happy to do overnight stays. I don’t accept pets in my home, due to living in an apartment. I am happy to come to your home where your fur baby already feels safe and comfortable!

“This was the first time our two older golden retrievers had stayed with a pet sitter that was not either part of the family or a close friend. Lori handled them very well, even though one was quite stubborn for her. She texted me daily pics and was great to work with. Highly recommend!”


About: Throughout high school I worked for Stoney Creek Vet Hospital where I was a vet tech assistant. I have also dog sat several times for friends and have many pets of my own. I am currently not working so I am very available at any time throughout the week. I also have a car so I am easily able to go places. I have 4 dogs at home so I am currently only going to client homes. I am a big pet lover, I am very punctual, and I will always be responsible when caring for your pets.
About: What sets me apart is my variety of experience with pets at every stage of life. I have experience caring for cats as well as dogs, and I’m attentive to their comfort, routines, and any extra care they may need. I also currently care for rescue kittens, so I’m comfortable with young animals who need gentle handling, consistency, and extra supervision. Overall, I provide calm, reliable, and genuinely loving care, treating every pet as if they were my own. 🐾 I have 2 7 month old kittens so daily pet care is very important to me! I give them enrichment time, lots of love, and regular litter scooping and changes. I grew up with dogs, so walking, feeding, and caring for dogs is very important to me! I care for pets with a calm, attentive, and respectful approach, always following their usual routines to help them feel safe and comfortable. In your home i’ll help maintain consistency in their routines. I’ll keep their feeding on schedule, refresh water, provide whatever enrichment your pet needs, any medication administration, and clean up whatever mess they may get into!

“Nessa was a great communicator and easy to work with! My dog seemed to love her. She sent pictures every day throughout the day and was flexible with her schedule. Barkley is excited for his next visit from her! She stayed in my home with my dog and left it neat and tidy. My dog has medications and some interesting eating habits. She was able to handle all requirements.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for years everything from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. Whether it’s a long walk, a quick drop-in, or cuddles and feeding time, I treat every pet like my own. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy, and cared for while you’re in need Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I start most mornings with a workout or walk, so adding pet walks or drop-ins during the day fits perfectly. My work schedule is flexible, which allows me to check in on pets throughout the day and evening. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your routines closely feeding schedules, walk routes, and house rules to make sure your pet feels secure and stress free. I take time to earn their trust with calm energy, patience, and plenty of affection.
“Mary is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ten plus stars! She was a very attentive loving honest caretaker of our 2 pugs & kitty. Mary attended to their needs daily especially our pug Simon and his very important heart medication. Mary went above and beyond and we highly recommend her to care for your pets!! 🩷 We will definitely have Mary come stay with our pets again in our home. Thanks 😊 Mary!!! Xoxo Bronson Simon & Boots 🩷”

About: Hey there! My name is Emily and I am a recent grad who has moved back to the area. I have always been an animal lover, and during grad school, I was able to broaden my animal care experiences! I am a dog mom to a German Shepherd named Gemma. She is a rescue and dog-reactive (but loves all people!), so I have extensive experience with walking and handling reactive dogs! Rest assured, when I care for your pets, Gemma will NOT be present. I was an avid foster and volunteer while in grad school for organizations such as Big Paws of the Ozarks, Fayetteville Animal Services, and Best Friends Resource Center. We have had fosters of a variety of ages and breeds. Additionally, I spent most of my Saturdays at the local farmers market with an adoptable shelter pup working on socialization and leash skills with fellow volunteers. Lastly, before moving, I was also a part-time employee at a pet resort that offered daycare, boarding, and grooming services. Hereto, I was able to care for even more dogs (and even some cats!). I am passionate about animal care and would love to take care of your pets, whether it be for walks, check-ins, or house sitting. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I am happy to chat :) I am currently located around the 19464/19343 area. Note: I am able to do check-in visits for cats and hang out for a bit, but cannot house sit because I am allergic. As a recent grad on the job market, I have a ton of free time to take care of your pets! Whether it be morning, midday, or evening walks or check-ins, I’m your gal! In your home, whether it be for a walk, check-in, or housesitting, I am happy to follow any rules that you have in mind! Since I am used to walking a reactive dog, I am extremely observant on walks for anything that might trigger a reaction.
“J. Paul was such a pleasure to work with. He seemed to understand the special needs of an anxious dog and did everything we asked of him with pearl. We came home to a dog that didn’t seem to be bothered in the least that we had left. That’s exactly what we wanted. I would use him again and recommend him to anyone who is concerned about dogs with anxiousness or other needs that come with a rescue pet.”

“I would highly recommend Keerthi and Jay! This was our first experience using Rover, so we were a little nervous, but everything went smoothly. Mandy was well taken care of, as well as our home. We loved their daily photos and are booking with them again!”

We had a great experience with Meghan! She cared for our dog, Luna, in our home while we were away. Communication was excellent with regular texts, pictures and pup-dates. It was clear that Luna was well cared for, comfortable, and happy. I would recommend Meghan to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter!

Michaela is amazing! My poor pup had an unexpected tooth extraction, and I had to take her straight from the vet to Michaela. She handled everything and the vet notes, and Gizmo's tooth healed great. She also communicated her concerns to check in with me on whether her adjustment behavior was normal and it was. I am so happy to have a sitter in the same community. Gizmo gets stressed in unfamiliar environments, and needs a human or companion around to feel comfortable. Gizmo was def spoiled with pets while she was there. Michaela also helped work with my schedule when I need up getting back later than expected. Thank you so much for being great dog mom on short notice <3

This was our first time using Rover and Aaron did not disappoint! Aaron stayed at our home with our sweet doggo for a week and a half and we are so appreciative! Mabel doesn't like thunderstorms and we were glad Aaron was with her during one (and a power outage) and it couldn't have gone more smoothly. Aaron was communicative, even volunteered to meet Mabel beforehand, and sent the sweetest pics daily while we were away. This was probably the first time we were able to go away and not worry about our dog (she doesn't do well in the car, otherwise she would have been with us), because of Aaron. We knew she was in good hands and it showed. We can't thank Aaron enough - and will certainly book again - without hesitation!
