“Patty was absolutely amazing. Having an elderly dog, you always worry on how they will handle change and being around someone new. Patty took wonderful care of Tank and his needs. I will definitely use her again and refer her to all of my friends.”
“Meghan was great! She housesat for us for a few days and did a great job taking care of our three dogs. They can be quite a handful and also require some medication daily. She did a great job communicating and sent plenty of updates. She took great care of our home as well! We will definitely use Meghan again!”
About: I’ve had pets and animals all my life! Growing up on a farm I’ve seen it all! My wife and I have fostered dogs and pet sat for years!! I work limited hours at my primary job which allows me to focus on taking care of your pets in my spare time. I’m hoping this hobby of pet care takes off and I’m able to fill in some gaps with earnings made from caring for your pets. We currently live in the country and have plenty of room for pets to run. I primary plan on walking pets near where you live or care for pets in owners homes.
“Andrea is THE best! Our dog is very unique in several ways, but he loves Andrea. The first time she came to visit, he did not bark AT ALL. That’s a first for our very anxious and barky pup! She is a loving, calm presence, and also happy to play ball with over-eager fur baby!”
About: I have been watching dogs/animals for most of my life. I have also had experience breeding dogs and raising puppies. I have been trusted by numerous people with their most beloved pets and homes. I have 3 dogs myself with crates for each one if needed . I can also keep them in separate rooms if needed but hopefully they play well togehter. Each pet has different needs and this will be discussed prior to boarding. I have experience with puppies to older dogs that need medicine. I have experience hosting pets and going to house sit.
About: I’ve taken care of my family’s dogs for years, and I have two of my own—so I get it. I’m super dependable, really patient, and honestly just love being around animals. I care about doing things right and making sure every dog feels safe and happy. Right now I don’t have much going on, so I’m super flexible and can fit pet care in pretty much anytime. I’m taking a class, but I can work that around whatever schedule is needed. I don’t have a fenced yard, just being honest, but my dogs are super friendly and love other dogs. I can crate your dog if needed or keep them separate—we have a whole downstairs area I can stay in with them if that’s more comfortable. I’m also happy to take them on walks as often as needed to make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention.
About: I have a deep bond with animals and I have always had that connection. It just made sense for me to work with them! I started out working in kennels and dog daycare in 2006, but noticed there were quite a lot of dogs who would be much better off at home, due to fear, anxiety, fights with other dogs, old age, food specifications, allergies, medication, etc. I have a big heart for all animals and enjoy caring for them in their homes, where they are comfy. I have been a professional pet sitter and dog walker for years. I started in 2008 with a great pet sitting company in Atlanta, GA and went on to start my own successful business in 2009. I love having a job that I love! I am a full time professional pet sitter and dog walker, so my availability is very flexible! I hope to meet you and your pets soon! I am very detail oriented and will be on alert at all times for any escape routes or open gates/doors. I will write down all details that you go over with me as to how exactly to keep everyone safe and happy.
“Katie H. sent only relevant messages, arrived on time and was gracious above and beyond expectations. I first booked two dogs, Mandy and Clarice. At the last minute she agreed to my adding a third dog, Winnie. Clarice was old, was diabetic and was not friendly due to her condition. Mandy was a normal, active 3-year old and Winnie was a 5-month old puppy. Katie sent us a couple of photos, and all three dogs were perfectly calm when we arrived after our event. This was my first experience with Rover.com, and I am truly impressed thanks to Katie.”
About: My family used to own a dog business in Little Rock with almost every dog service there is. I grew up and worked there most of my life. I am currently working part-time as a server in Cabot. I only work 4-6 hour shifts at a time, because I have a dog of my own to take care of. I have a puppy of my own who is almost 2. He is neutered and he LOVES to play. He has never shown aggression towards any other dogs. I also have a fenced in yard.

Donna Z.
“Donna worked for us for many years and was always completely reliable and trust worthy. She also helped us look after our two dogs and it is clear that she is a dog lover and they love her. She can be relied upon to follow instructions exactly, but will also be proactive and creative when it comes to solving problems. She would make a great addition to Rover and anyone would be luck to have her as the caretaker for their pets.”
