About: I have watched the pets of friends, family, and peers of mine and have had an amazing time doing it! I also had a family dog and I have a cat of my own! I have watched / walked pets of many ages, weights and temperaments and I have been happy with all of them! I am respectful towards boundaries of pets, and have experience grooming my own pets who are reactive at the grooming salon and are better at home. I also have lots of walking dog experience as well. I am working part-time on the weekends, I am able to stay overnight during weekends. I cannot bring any other pet home because of my own cat but I am able to travel and stay at other houses on the weekends. I am able to do one day pet sitting and short and long dog walks as well. I am able to also take dogs or cats on car rides if needed as well! I have cared for my family dog along side my family for her whole 13 year life, she was a yellow lab. I now have a maine coon who is 19 lbs and has double hip dysplasia and a bad knee who is 5 years old. I have groomed both of those pets, walked both of those pets on leashes and taken daily care and made sure any problems they have had, had been helped and treated with care. I safely take directions from owners whose pets I have watched and followed them fully and have reached out an asked questions and made them aware of everything that had happened when they were gone. I take pet care very seriously and I always bring up anything I notice is wrong and always make sure the pets safety and happiness is priority!
“We booked Devon to check in on our three cats while we were on vacation. Devon has high attention to detail and provided thorough reports along with plenty of pictures. We highly recommend!”

“April was amazing! She came through for me last minute on New Year’s Day and took wonderful care of both of my dogs. One of them is a difficult Pomeranian and she handled everything calmly and confidently. I feel completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. I’m grateful for her help and would absolutely book her again. Highly recommend!”

About: I have had a dog in my life since I was in the third grade. I now have 4 dogs of my own and foster for a local rescue, which means I have taken care of dogs of all ages I currently work Monday - Friday until 3:30 PM and am available after that. Weekends are usually free for anytime care as my job does not require me to work weekends. I do not have a fenced in yard but we do have a portion of the property that is far from the road and boxed in by trees. My dogs are friendly and love to run around and play.
“Carly is the best sitter for my two cats. She is so wonderful at caring for my cats,. I can leave my cats and know that they get the attention the need while I am on vacation.”


About: I have enjoyed spending time with dogs and keeping them company! I have 2 dogs of my own so I have enough experience to watch your furry baby! I am currently available morning in the weekdays, or anytime on the weekends! Some evenings may be available- just reach out and I will get back to you. I have a car, for reliable transportation. I also live around a park which has enough room for dogs to roam around, all depending on the dogs comfort.

About: As a teacher, patience, responsibility, and building trust are part of who I am every day. I naturally create calm, positive relationships and understand that every dog, just like every child, has a unique personality and deserves individualized care. Since I'm on summer break, I have a flexible schedule and can give your pet the time and attention they deserve rather than rushing through visits. Whether it's an energetic walk, extra playtime, or simply providing companionship, I strive to make every dog feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and my goal is to give you peace of mind by treating your dog like family. 🐾 As a teacher on summer break, I have a flexible daily and weekly schedule, allowing me to prioritize consistent, reliable pet care, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. I care for pets with patience, attention, and love—ensuring they are safe, comfortable, and happy through reliable walks, playtime, feeding routines, and gentle companionship.

About: I’ve been a devoted animal lover and pet owner for as long as I can remember. From dogs and cats to caring for pets with unique personalities and needs, animals have always been a huge part of my life. Currently, I share my home with a lovable, mischievous hound mix who keeps me on my toes and a cat who completely stole my heart. A few years ago, I lost my soul dog, Jersey, and that experience deepened my understanding of the special bond we share with our pets. I know firsthand how difficult it can be to leave them behind and trust someone else with their care. That’s why I treat every pet as if they were my own—with patience, affection, attention, and plenty of love. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in visit, playtime, cuddles, a walk, or simply a friendly face while you’re away, my goal is to make them feel safe, happy, and cared for. I also know how important peace of mind is for pet parents, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and communication throughout my visits. Because I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that often allows me to accommodate drop-in visits and pet care needs throughout the day. I’m committed to providing dependable, compassionate care and building a trusting relationship with both you and your pets. I look forward to meeting your furry family members and becoming someone you can count on whenever you need a helping hand! 🐾❤️ I work from home and have a decently flexible schedule. I have a young son and pets of my own but thankfully I share these responsibilities with my rockstar husband so I will be able to care for your fur babies. I understand that having a stranger in your home can be a little uncomfortable. I will 💯 respect your space and keep things clean in order for your while you are gone. Please let me know your preferences for my stay.

About: Hi, I’m Ashling! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier, spent my teenage years as the go-to neighborhood babysitter and pet sitter, and today, I’m a proud pet parent to two wonderful Wheatens of my own. Because of my personal experience with dogs of all backgrounds, I understand that every animal is unique. My philosophy is to always meet animals where they are at—building trust at their pace while providing a safe, confident, and structured environment. I'm currently accepting weekday appointments for now and will accept some overnights and weekends. I have a flexible schedule at this point and will be able to care for pets multiple times throughout the day and night. I will treat your home and your pets with the utmost respect and try to follow the schedule and routine to make sure your pet is comfortable in their home while you're away. Their safety and comfort is my highest priority.
“Leslie is a compassionate animal lover who provided outstanding care for my cat. She always had great communication, providing plenty of adorable photos and thorough updates. She is detail-oriented, going above and beyond to make sure all of our pet and home-related needs are met. Knowing I had someone so genuine and reliable looking after my pet and home was a huge peace of mind. I came back home to a happy, satisfied cat and a clean space with everything left in place. It's such a comfort and relief to find such a trustworthy and exceptionally amazing pet sitter. I would highly recommend her for any animal care needs!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs almost my whole life. Whether it was my family dog or checking in on others dogs while their family went on vacation. I do work full time M-F 7:30am till 6pm at night. I am typically free on the weekends outside of schooling which is only a couple hours a day. By caring for pets in my clients home, I first take them outside to do their business right away and stretch their legs.

Franklin dog parents share their Rover experiences
Amanda has been great to work with and she handled the craziness of our two four month old puppies wonderfully! She is great at communicating and provided a nice summary of her visit along with some pictures. We look forward to having Amanda watch the dogs again.

Patricia is an exceptionally warm, friendly, reliable and communicative professional! This was our first booking using her for our medium sized shepherd mix to do drop in visits. She performed all of the drop ins, walks and services on time, and communicated well with us. I will definitely be rebooking with her!!
