“Jessika is wonderful! She genuinely loves my dog and he is always excited to see her. I always get lots of pictures and details. Even though it’s just a 30 minute walk, I appreciate the extra effort. Would absolutely recommend!”


“Cindy made my pupper's first time with a Rover Professional easy and enjoyable. He's a gluten for attention and she was more than happy to provide him with all the attention and affection that he could take. A spectacular first impression for the services provided. 10/10 Would recommend.”


“Jessica was my lifesaver!!!! I injured my knee and was suddenly unable to walk my dog. She was available on short notice and responded quickly. I was in such a panic but she reassured me that she would take great care of my baby! She was flexible, patient, and kind. I had the worst day and I was being so spastic and crazy and she was sooo sweet to me. I am thankful to have found her . My dog absolutely loved her! She took notes about specific things concerning his care, and she followed all instructions given and had a successful walk with him! She took him to the park, his favorite place :) I am so thankful that Jessica has experience with large breeds and was able to handle my 70 lb dog. She sent me updates and pictures which helped my bad day get soo much better and put my mind at ease seeing my dog so happy and in great hands! She is reliable, responsible, and trustworthy. I would highly recommend Jessica and will definitely have her continue walking my dog until my leg heals (and after that too!) Thank you Jessica- you are the absolute best !!!”


About: I’ve had a dog in my household ever since I was 5 years old and would love to meet and help you with your fur baby! I go to school at Paul Mitchell Cosmetology 3d days a week, and work at a restaurant 2 days a week and take care of my pup every night when I get home, I also own a bunny rabbit named e.b.! I love my pets like they are family and will treat yours like they’re my own. Your pets safety and the safety of your home is a top priority!

About: I've had experience taking care of dogs since I was the age of 10 years old. I have done this for family and friends for many years and even assist with grooming needs. I also have experience with giving medications to pets as I have worked as a veterinary assistant in the past. I am currently working at an elementary school but going to school to allow me to have a work from home job. Until then I am more free in the afternoon and evening but I am able to free up some time in the morning to help out. During the summer I do summer camp, working the afternoon/evening shift; however, I am able to adjust my schedule as needed. I have a fenced in yard here at my house so my dogs have free range of the back yard, however when we did not have one we had them out at least every hour. Our dogs get feed twice a day, morning and night, but I can switch however to fit your pet best! During my free time my boyfriend and I like to take our dog, Rico, to go hiking and swimming. We would love to be able to bring him a friend!

“she was very polite and aware of the dogs needs, definitely stayed in touch with me the whole time which made me feel safer. Definitely will be rebooking with her! Give her a chance, you won’t regret it.”



About: Hello my name is Ashley and my lifestyle is perfect for your every need! I worked in a vet clinic in High School, and in a pet supply distributor after college at Auburn University. I have always had a way with animals: active, sick, older, etc. I want and can work with them and help them thrive. I have been pet sitting for over 10 years- walking , caring for, and loving other people's pets. With a flexible schedule I work from home and I have my own car. I am happy to bathe and or brush your animals, but cannot use clippers or scissors or do nails. I am looking forward to meeting you, and your pets since I have none of my own it will fill that void. My family and I cant wait to meet you soon. I am always available. We are able to be home all the time with the family and have a flexible schedule. We would like to include your pet into the day while you are away. I have a fenced yard and a house perfect for pets. We are always here as a family to care for any needs. We include them as if they were our own, or our families pets. We haven’t had the time to commit to getting a new pet and we miss having one so much we would rather you leave them with us to love on then have them be alone.

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, I provide loving, attentive, and reliable pet care tailored to each pup's unique needs. I’ve worked with senior dogs, anxious pups, and dogs with medical conditions—including those requiring daily medication, injections, or special diets. I’m confident handling everything from post-surgery care to mobility support, and I always make sure pets feel safe, calm, and cared for. Whether it’s belly rubs, slow walks, or a strict medication schedule, I’m here to give your dog the same level of care and attention I’d give my own. I work part-time, so I have lots of flexibility to spend quality time with pets during the day and evenings. Whether it's walks, hangouts, or just keeping them company, I can fit it into my weekly routine. I'm also open to overnight stays if your pup needs a buddy at night! I care for pets in their homes just like they’re my own—keeping their routine, giving lots of love, and making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and right at home while you're away.

“Shan was awesome with Bear & Rosie! Bear can be a bit shy and standoffish at first, but she was patient with him to gain his trust (which is very rare nowadays). She sent lots of pics, did the full time walk & even more. She relayed any questions or concerns promptly. Did great, would definitely book again”


About: I've taken care of dogs since I was small. I get along well with and enjoy being around them. I was even able to teach a blind rescue I took in how to learn our house and surrounding areas, so he could move freely. I have a flexible schedule and work from home and in the field with clients. Because of this, I am able to spend a lot of quality time with your fur babies. I have a fenced play area and two sweet dogs of my own. Lucy my Labradoodle and Bean my chihuahua. I am able to crate your baby if needed, and I also have a play pen for smaller dogs. Please bring their food, treats, and medicine. You are more than welcome to bring their special blanket or bed, but I have plenty of bowls here to share. Regarding drop offs and pick ups, I appreciate if you would limit the timeframe within an hour. Though I often work from home, I am also a graduate student and work out in the field, as well.

About: Aside from having a dog in my family my whole life, I've taken care of many dogs over the years. From my neighbor's golden retriever in high school (who I would sneak over to play with when she was out in the yard) to a few dogs in my neighborhood now, I love to get to know the dogs that I help take care of. I have experience dog walking and pet sitting, both in my home and visiting the dog's home. I'm also happy to provide baths and other special care as needed. As a stay at home dad, I have a flexible schedule and can provide a lot of attention for dogs visiting our home, as well as work in a daily walk if that's part of their normal routine. We have a large fenced yard that your dog can enjoy. We've had a variety of dogs stay with us either with or without crates and we can create separate areas with gates if necessary. If your dog stays with us, I have a flexible schedule to provide a lot of attention and with a family of 5 there's always someone around to play with, pet, or sit with your dog. Our friendly beagle is always happy to have a new friend to play with and he's more than willing to share our daily walks around the neighborhood with another friend.

“Sarah was awesome! Her knowledge from working in a shelter came in handy when one of my dogs was being difficult. She took great photos and left a wonderful description about their time together. Can’t wait to have Sarah come back to hang out with my boys.”


About: My wife and I have both grown up around dogs and absolutely love the warmth and loyalty that they provide. I had a Dachshund growing up, while my wife had a German Shepard, Mastiff, Yorkie, and a Vizsla. We currently have a rescue Jack Russel/Beagle mix who is absolutely full of love and energy every day! We both have experience with puppies and senior dogs. My wife has also had lots of experience with dog walking and sitting including caring for Golden Retrievers and Labs. I am originally from Roanoke, VA. After moving to Florida and working for the Walt Disney Company for 5 years, my wife and I moved back to Roanoke to be closer to family. We are fully available to help care for your fur baby! We have experience with crates and will happily crate any of your pets. We will always use our utmost respect, care, and love with your pets!

About: I haves been around animals all my life. I currently own two cats and two horses. When I was younger, my mother and I fostered countless animals for local shelters specializing in puppy and kitten care. I absolutely adore animals and think they deserve all the love one could possibly give. I have extensive knowledge of animal behavior after working in-depth with at an animal shelter in IN and WV. Almost all of my animals have had to take medication, so I know how to administer pills, oral gels, and flea/tic repellent. I have experience working with all ages of dogs and cats as well as many of the different species ranging from chickens to horses. I would love to meet you and your furry friend :) My job is not a normal 9-5. I have flexibility in mornings, afternoons, and evenings to drop in, do daily chores, and walk/play with your furry friends. I make sure water is clean, food is full, and litter/poop/potty is cleaned up. If needed, walks can be arranged along with play time in the yard.

About: I have always had fur babies and pets and animals seem to take to me right away. I have experience with all sorts of dog temperaments, and breeds, from Yorkies through Roddies. i’m new to the area and want to work hard to establish my business here. I have lovingly cared for senior dogs and cats, as well as puppies. A walk or a visit with me is fun! When I visit or walk your family pet they will be treated like the special creatures they are! You never need to worry about your furry family members when you’re at work or away! Loving attention and quality time will be given to your fur baby/ies when you enlist my help. I will follow your instructions and make certain that your pets needs are taken care of-so you can focus on work or vacation and know that they are in good hands.

Nicole S.
“For 9 days, Nicole took excellent care of our cat, Tigger, while we were on vacation. Nicole came over daily, gave him food and water, cleaned his litter box, and gave him attention. She did exactly what we asked her to do. Before our vacation, Nicole was nice enough to come over 3 or 4 times so that Tigger could start to get used to her (she didn't ask to be paid for this, but we paid her anyway.) Tigger doesn't like strangers, but Nicole was able to be his buddy while we were away. When we arrived home, we found Tigger to be happy and well taken care of. We hope that Nicole is available next year to watch Tigger for us when we take another vacation.”

He's very detail oriented and follows directions for feeding, walking, and any other scheduling needs animals have, including medication management. There is no better person to walk or watch your dogs, I guarantee it.”

“he is doing a fabulous job with our pitbull Ramona, who is only four months old. He’s gentle with her and sweet and gives her the attention she needs.”


Cyndi C.
“I have witnessed Cyndi C (Caleca) interact with her own Cat as well as Dogs and Cats she had either just met or belonged to people, like my sister. Cyndi always ask the owner before handling the animal, she is basically excited to deal with every pet I have seen her meet, even ones that may just run over from a neighbors yard and may jump on her while wagging its tail and trying to lick her. Recently when leaving her house from a visit, she pointed out to me what appeared to be a gopher or groundhog maybe 25 yards away in the middle of the street, just sitting there. She carefully approached, making sure not to get to close and scare it, but wanted to make sure it didn't get hit in the middle of the street. She called me after I was home, letting me know she had called animal control to try and get it help due to it appeared to possibly have a hurt leg and was just walking in a circle. By what she said, she stayed out near, watching until police came to let her know the animal control was running late but they would watch until proper authorities showed up. By this time it was dark and she had watched the injured animal for about 2 hours, to keep it safe. She has shown me images of a dog she used to have, told me stories of their adventures. Just watching her face and hearing the tone in her voice as she told me the stories as well ad when I see her interact with animals, it is easy to see she has true love of animals and the care that they receive. I believe she would be a perfect fit for you and your clients, shes caring, honeat and can be counted on. Michael McClanahan”
