About: Hi there! I have had animals at home my whole 30 years of life! From cats to dogs to rabbits & chickens! I have been professionally watching peoples pets for the last 4 years. I did attend a vet tech program in 2018. I have experience with puppies, all the way to senior care. I am comfortable and experienced at administering meds as well! I am a stay at home mom to a school aged boy. I am home pretty much all day every day. Making my availability extremely flexible. All pets will be at the main floor of our home, we do have a basement. We are not fenced in but are completely surrounded by woods on our 5 acres of land! Most of the dogs I watch will be put on a leash outside unless I am told they won't run away! Also, will crate if that is what they are used to!
“I found McKenzie through the Rover app, and she did an amazing job with my fur babies!! They were calm and content when I got home. I LOVED the picture updates and communication while I was away. McKenzie took good care of my home and belongings, and I will definitely utilize her services again in the future! Thank you McKenzie!!!”

About: I have owed my own pets,Dogs,Cats,turtle I have also attended to my friends and family's pets when they go out of town. I love animals. I am available mostly after 3 and evening to go let your pet out for a little while. Throw a ball with the ones that like it. Keep them happy I will stay the night if needed I have my own two dogs. So I would not want to bring your pet to my home. I believe most want to be at their home instead of a strange atmosphere
“Molly is wonderful!! She took fantastic care of our home and our two rambunctious fur-babies! It was so nice to be able to relax on vacation knowing that Molly had everything handled. We have the utmost trust in her and would be delighted to book her again in the future.”

“Melissa took amazing care of our dogs for the long weekend. She sent pictures and when we returned the dogs were happy and the house was tidy so we couldn’t have been happier!”

“Bonnie was absolutely wonderful with our dog Bruno, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Before the booking, Bonnie took the time to come over for a meet and greet so we could go through Bruno’s routine, needs, and any special instructions. That immediately gave us confidence that Bruno would be in great hands. While we were away, Bonnie sent thoughtful updates throughout the day, which we really appreciated. She was a fantastic communicator, prompt, reliable, and very attentive. She took Bruno on a nice long walk, and the sweetest surprise was when she gave him a little St. Patrick’s Day scarf. It was adorable and showed just how much care she puts into the dogs she looks after. When we returned home, she had also left a lovely “thank you for choosing me to look after Bruno” card along with special treats for him. Such a thoughtful touch. Bonnie was incredibly gentle, kind, and clearly loves what she does. We completely trust her with both our dog and our home, and we would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter. Thank you again, Bonnie, Bruno already misses you! 🐾”

About: I have worked with many different dogs including dogs who require medication, dogs with anxiety, dogs who are slow to warm up to people and dogs with energetic personalities. I also work very well with cats and have a lot of experience caring for both indoor and outdoor cats. My family has owned pets ever since I was a kid so I have grown up with animals and am very comfortable around them. As an entrepreneur I have a very open schedule. I am available all times of day on weekdays and frequently have availability for weekends. I have some availability for Holliday’s. I closely follow the owners instructions for how they want their house and pets treated while I’m there. If you do not have a yard to let your pets roam free in I am able to take them on walks as often as needed. I follow feeding instructions and I am extra careful to make sure that dogs with special diets get what is needed and don’t receive what they can’t have.
About: I have experience with small and large animals. You name it, I’ve probably taken care of it. From farm animals to companion animals to some exotics. I’m a full time working mom but I have extra time in the evenings and weekends to care for your furry friends! Available for weekend boarding. Available every other weekend for over night stays in your home. My yard is not fenced but I do have a picket line for the pups or I can take them out on a leash, whatever you prefer. I am also able to crate if needed. Pups are allowed on the furniture and are treated like family.

About: I have grown up around animals my entire life between pet sitting, breeding, owning, walking, bathing you name it i have done it. I am currently in training to become a dog groomer. I am very passionate about animals and i love them like my own I’m currently training to become a dog groomer twice a week so i’m looking for side jobs to help through it and pay for my tools I have a fenced in yard and live with my mom who is retired i have 3 dogs and 2 cats but am able to separate animals in the house if needed
“Rebecca was fantastic! She housesat for 11 days and took great care of our anxious Australian Shepherd, Bailey. This was our first time leaving Bailey with someone outside of family, but she warmed up to Rebecca right away. Rebecca checked on her regularly, provided daily (picture) updates, and left our home spotless. We’re so grateful for her help and will definitely reach out to her again in the future!”
About: Hi, I’m Alex. I’ve been caring for pets for friends and family for years — dogs, cats, and various small animals. I understand that pets have social and emotional needs as much as physical ones, and I make it a priority to give them attention, companionship, and care that matches their personality and routine. I enjoy spending time with cats and making sure they feel secure and engaged, whether that’s playing, cuddling, or simply being present. For dogs, I’m comfortable with both high-energy breeds that need plenty of activity and older pups who do best with a slower pace. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walks, and overnight stays, and I always aim to be reliable, attentive, and consistent so you can feel at ease knowing your pets are in good hands. Right now I have a very flexible schedule, which means I can easily fit in drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays throughout the week. I like to build my day around the pets I’m caring for - whether that’s making sure dogs get the exercise and attention they need or setting aside time to play with cats and check in on them. Having that flexibility lets me give each pet consistent care without feeling rushed. In a client’s home, I always follow their routine as closely as possible so pets feel comfortable and secure. This includes feeding on schedule, making sure they have fresh water, taking dogs out for walks or playtime, cleaning litter boxes, and spending quality time with them so they don’t feel lonely. I’m respectful of the home, keep things tidy, and make sure pets are safe and cared for until their family is back.

“Carolyn is thoughtful and attentive to both her two and four legged clients. She checks in with us and sends pics of our pups. They love when she comes to visit and we feel so comfortable leaving them with her!”

“Gabby has been our pet sitter exclusively for over 2 years now and there is no one else I would trust with my fur baby. She takes incredible care of my very spoiled cat Luna - making sure she receives the same love and attention as when I’m home with her. After a few less than ideal pet sitters, it’s been amazing to have Gabby who cares for your pets (and home) like they are her own.”
