3. Alexis M.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind ever since I was a kid. I’ve grown up in a house that has always had at least one dog. I am available for almost all services including walking, playing, and boarding! I’m currently working full time, but I have plenty of time in my spare time to play! I have two days off a week, and usually work weekends. Although I live in an apartment, we have plenty of space for your puppy to run around! I can also crate your dog if needed.

“Courtney did a fantastic job with our girls! She is so kind and patient, and the girls loved it. She treated our girls like they were her own! Would recommend her 1000x over!”


5. Lillian P.
About: I grew up on a farm with many dogs. I have experience with giving medication and bottle feeding puppies. I have dog sat for a neighbor on many occasions, as well as I have helped run dog shed hunts. I am a college student right now, so my schedule is pretty open. I don’t have any classes passed 1:00, so pet care fits perfectly in my routine. I care for pets so that the pet can be as happy as possible while their owner is gone and make sure the owner has reassurance that their precious fur baby is in good hands.


6. Kirsten K.

“We loved having Kirsten here staying in our home with our two cocker spaniels for 3 days/2 nights. She did a wonderful job and our pups loved her. She followed all directions and gave us daily updates. We will definitely have Kirsten again and we were very comfortable having her stay in our home.”


7. Kaylee N.
“We were so thankful to find Kaylee on Rover to care for our pets while we went on vacation. We have 4 dogs and 2 cats and were needing someone who was comfortable and willing to provide care for them for 4 days in our home. Kaylee was willing to meet with us for an informal interview and meet all the pets so we could all determine if it was going to be a good fit. Needless to say within minutes of meeting with her we knew we found our person! And over the 4 days she kept us updated with pictures and texts. She exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend her!”


8. Tereus H.
“When our Sir Palboy and Princess Angel are told their Tereus is coming, they run to window to look for him. As soon as they see his vehicle, they run to do the door. They know he gives the best tummy rubs in the world! They LOVE their Tereus. Tereus is a caring and thoughtful person. He has set high standards for himself. He is committed to fulfilling them. We and our Sir Palboy and Princess Angel TRUST Tereus.”


9. Maisie B.
About: I have had pets my whole life and have cared for family pets as well. I have many animals myself some might even say a zoo. I am going to school for marine biology and love all furry friends. I am in college at Fort hays state university I have classes in the morning but am done by 3 most days and have breaks in between. I also have 22 animals at home I take care of. Every animal is diffrent I would feel most comfortable meeting animals beforehand with owners present and learn what they do for their schedule so there isint much change. I'm ok with grooming walking feeding and anything else that is needed pretty much.

11. Makenna W.
About: With years of dedicated pet care experience, I've cultivated a deep love and understanding for our furry companions. Having nurtured dogs and cats alike, I've cherished every moment spent catering to their needs and building lasting connections. With my own canine companion by my side for nine enriching years, I've honed my skills in providing attentive, compassionate care. From playful pups to serene felines, I embrace the unique personalities and quirks of each animal I encounter, ensuring a safe and joyful environment for all. I am currently at home from college for the summer and would love to take care of your furry companion. I am pretty much always free and can find way to work around my schedule if needed! When entrusted with the care of your beloved canine in your home, rest assured that I prioritize their comfort, safety, and well-being above all else. With a tailored approach to meet each dog's individual needs, I ensure a seamless transition by maintaining their familiar routines and surroundings. From regular feeding and exercise schedules to administering medications or adhering to specific dietary requirements, I am diligent in providing attentive and personalized care. Whether it's engaging in stimulating play sessions, leisurely walks in the neighborhood, or simply offering comforting companionship, I strive to create a nurturing environment where your dog feels cherished and secure in the comfort of their own home. Your pet's happiness and contentment are my utmost priorities, and I am committed to going above and beyond to ensure their time away from you is filled with love, care, and joy.


12. Jadynn D.
“Jadynn is the absolute best for our girls! She takes great attention to detail with their routine and care. Normally they won't eat while we are gone, but Jadynn kept their anxiety down and they ate no problem. She is super trustworthy as well. Will definitely recommend her to everyone.”


13. Benjamin W.
About: Growing up, my father was allergic to both dogs and cats, so we often kept smaller pets in our house. I have taken care of small-dwarf hamsters to energetic bunnies within that segment. As I got older, I took the responsibility of watching after my neighbor's dogs and cats, whether it be taking them on walks or playing with them, as well as feeding them. I have never owned a larger animal such as a dog or cat, however, I understand their behavior and am more than comfortable being around them and supporting their needs. I am currently a part-time student so I will have time sprinkled throughout the week to take care of your pet! Typically, Tuesdays and Thursdays are my "days off", but I am more than flexible. During weekdays, anytime after noon works best. On weekends, I am usually available from morning to evening times all around! I always want to respect the home, the homeowner, and the pet I am taking care of when in the space to work. Saftey and comfort of the pet is my #1 priority and I take precautions to make sure the pet is well fed, comfortable in the environment, and that any restrictions are met.


14. Jaelah J.
“Jaelah is by far the best and most trustworthy sitter we have used for our pups by far. She is responsible, respectful and incredibly loving to our pups. Jaelah has never given us a reason to worry about our dogs whether we are gone for a day trip or week-long trip, we know they are in good hands.”
