“We were originally going to board our dogs during our destination wedding, but I got nervous last minute. Mackenzie saved the day for us. Our dogs loved her and they got to stay home with their routines instead of being anxious somewhere new. Would definitely rebook and highly recommend 💓”

“Ally is wonderful! She did such a great job with our three attention-loving goldens and gave us complete peace of mind while we were on our trip. We loved the sweet updates and really appreciated her attentiveness (she even reached out to ask about pain management for one of our senior goldens when she started looking stiff after fetch). Highly recommend and won’t hesitate to book with Ally again!”

“Kaylea was wonderful to work with! She was responsive, easy to communicate with, and really took the time to get comfortable with my animals routines. We appreciated the updates and photos she sent! We will absolutely rebook in the future! I’d highly recommend her”

“Lucas is a great dog sitter! He takes the best care of our big slobbery hound (and our house) so I don’t worry about anything while we’re away. I appreciate all the thoughtful updates and pictures he sends, too.”

“I can’t recommend Kiley enough. Managing three dogs is no small task, but she kept them happy, exercised, and on their routine perfectly. She sent great photo updates that really put my mind at ease. Beyond the excellent pet care, she went above and beyond by straightening up/cleaning the house, which was in pristine condition when I returned (the absolute best feeling after being away from home). She is professional, trustworthy, and clearly loves what she does. 10/5 stars!”

About: I have over 5 years of pet-sitting experience and have had dogs my entire life, giving me extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of various breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. What sets me apart is my commitment to providing personalized care and maintaining each pet's normal routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. In addition to pet sitting, I occasionally volunteer at a puppy nursery that cares for rescued mother dogs and their newborn puppies. This experience has given me additional exposure to caring for young puppies, monitoring their needs, and helping provide a safe and nurturing environment during an important stage of their development. I am comfortable caring for multiple pets, administering basic medications if needed, and providing extra patience and attention to puppies, senior pets, and animals with specific routines. Whether a pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply having companionship throughout the day, I adapt my care to meet their individual needs. I understand that every pet is unique, and I strive to provide reliable, attentive care while keeping owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. I am currently taking online classes over the summer, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, pet sitting, and overnight care. My priority is always providing a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for pets. I live on 12 acres in a quiet setting and have one small, very friendly Cocker Spaniel. While my yard is not fenced, pets are always supervised outdoors and can be kept on long leads for safe exercise and exploration when appropriate. I never allow pets off-leash unless specifically instructed by the owner and it is safe to do so. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their established routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while keeping their environment clean and secure. I understand that trust is important when someone is caring for a beloved pet, so I maintain open communication and provide regular updates and photos. I also pay close attention to each pet's behavior and needs to ensure they are happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout my time with them.
“Donna was great! She replied promptly to text and emails. Took the time for a meet up even though it was only a one-night booking. Donna was flexible and easy to work with. Our dogs, Rufus and Star would love to have her for another sleepover. We would definitely use her again.”
About: I've recently sold my home in Holts Summit & am moving to Hallsville, MO. To all my customers over the last year, Thank you so much for entrusting me with the care of your fur babies. I've meet wonderful people & most of all, thier wonderful pets. Until I've settled in my new home, I won't be taking on the care of furbabies. The main priority is getting my yard fenced so I can do so in the future. For those of you who want to continue with my services, I would be willing to meet in Ashland for pickup & drop-off. For any new customers, this is only my 2nd year doing Rover but I have lots of experience with animals. Rabbits, horses even cows & rabbits but mostly dogs & cats. My home is a calm space & works best for older calm, mellow pets. I'm home for most of the day & they get lots of potty breaks. I hope to be available for bookings by end of August, early Sep. Thanks again for allowing me to be part of your babies lives. As of now I am no longer working & will be home for most of the day except for the occasional trip to the store I have a small fenced in yard for my pets to use I also have a room set up with additional pet beds a dog crate and potty pads for accidents. The room is especially set up for the dogs. My son-in-law and daughter also do Rover and I take care of their pets on a regular basis. I also take care of my son's dog on a regular basis
“Michaela was terrific. She was very communicative and kept us updated a couple times a day. Our dogs and cats clearly loved having her over. It was a piece of mind knowing that our family was so well cared for.”
About: I am a professional young adult who has loved dogs my entire life. I walked friend's dogs all four years of high school and have a large dog of my own who I train and care for. As a college student, I currently have a very laid back summer schedule and have plenty of time to care for your pet during the weekdays and weekends! I love spending time outdoors and would love to take your dogs on long walks, provide them water, and spoil them with love and treats.
