“Stephanie met with us beforehand, and would stay in touch with us throughout, and anytime I had questions or anything. When she came initially, you could tell she understood how cats can be and wasn’t going to be intrusive toward them. She was considerate of our home, and even left the light on for us on the last visit knowing we’d be home soon. I’d recommend her!”
About: Hi, I'm Gessy! I have several years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, especially pit bulls and small breeds. I've done pet sitting, walking, feeding, playtime, and even given medications when needed. I treat every pet like family-gentle, patient, and dependable. Whether it's for a weekend or longer, your pets will be safe, happy and love with me and my family. I am currently a stay home mom, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weeks days. I do not have a fence yard i have a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company, and I can easily crate your dog if needed.
“Long time happy customer. Joanne and Brenda really go the extra mile to care for my cats and do such a nice job cleaning after them before I return — I am very grateful.”
“Merit, was wonderful with my HD. In fact he took to her the first time that they met. She was timely for each appointment, excellent photos of HD and I appreciated the feedback on each of her visits. Margaret W.”
About: Growing up I always had a house full of furry friends! I’ve had all kinds of pets from dogs to parrots to horses to ferrets. I was southern raised so I also grew up with goats and chickens as well! I spent a lot of time dog sitting for my neighbors while also working part time at a doggy daycare where I got tons of experience! I learned how to care for dogs of all ages. Puppies to seniors. I learned how to administer basic medication, identify and understand dog behavior and safety, and maintain proper diets and nutrition. I believe my passion lies in the animal field :) I do currently work as a chick fil a manager during the mornings and day but my evenings are mostly free! Weekends are available as well. I am unable to board any pets in my own home however I am open to pet sitting for a few hours and/or walking, feeding, enrichment, check ins, administering basic medications, etc! All services such as food, medication, and a safe environment to walk/play must be provided for your fur baby however for walking, per customer discretion, I can provide transport to dog parks and things alike! Toys and treats I can provide as well!
“Kira did an amazing job with our extremely active golden doodle. She came over twice a day and not only fed him and cared for him, but also played with him and loved him. She sent pictures all week and I could really tell that our dog Ace felt comfortable around her.”
“Donnis was amazing with my high maintenance Pomeranian. I am an overly anxious dog mom but she made me feel so comfortable while I was away. I’ll definitely be using her again in the future. Thank you so much, Donnis!”
“I can’t say enough good things! She did amazing with our wild pups. We loved reading their report cards from each visit. It’s a great feeling to know that someone is taking great care of your babies!”
About: I have always been very good with animals ever since I was little. I like animals more than humans so I promise to take care of your pet like it is my own. I have volunteered at the Human Society and I am going to college to work with animals so I would love to care for your pet to gain more experience. I am currently home from college so I am free all day, Monday through Friday. Then starting in August I will be home Friday through Sunday. I have an unfenced yard but plenty of yard for them to run around and I have a in ground runner that they can be put on for some freedom. I also have two fur babies to keep your fur baby company but they can always be kept separate if needed.
About: I have been involved in pet sitting and emergency animal rescue for 15 years. I also know animal CPR. YOUR RULES MY LOVE it's Great I am retired so any schedule works for me. Whether it is checking in on your animals or staying with them I am available 24/7 I have a roommate and she and I share dog responsibilities in our house. That's why I am available to sit overnight. We walk our dogs on leash.
“Really happy that I found my Rover person Rebekah. She is exceptional. She was very attentive to my two cats which we all know cats don’t really need that much attention. She took care of them and calmed my fears of being away. Thank you!!!”
About: At 28 Years Old, I have nearly always had a dog living with me. 8 dogs have been apart of my life in the past and currently 4 reside in our large loving home. Nearly every single one of my dogs have been rescued and cared for, where I try my best to change my own routine to better fit their needs rather than trying to change them to fit my own. In the past two years I have boarded relatives' dogs at my own home and would like to continue helping dog parents with any dog care they might need. Because I've had so many dogs in my life, I have had to experience both the beginning and end of their lives. I especially enjoy giving extra care to senior dogs to make sure they are most comfortable in the golden age of their lives. I am working only part time so I have plenty of time to give your dogs as little or as much attention as you need. My schedule is extremely flexible. Weekends or Weekdays are perfect for me. My home sits on a hilly and forested 3 acres, with fenced in portions as well as a long circular driveway perfect for walks! In the fenced area, there is a pool perfect for any water loving dog in the summer! There is also an enclosed run of chickens that are unbothered by any rambunctious and curious dogs. Currently we have 4 dogs, one an outdoor Rottweiler dog that is all too happy to play with another dog, but with her own separated fenced in area. We have 3 indoor dogs, 2 Rat Terriers and 1 Chihuahua. All of them have shown friendly tendencies to unfamiliar dogs of similar size. They have had mixed feelings over larger dogs and I know that not all dogs enjoy the company of others. Should your own dog be more comfortable being alone and dislike other dogs, our house is set up in a way that your own dog can have their own private space away from my dogs and still get whatever attention is needed while still allowing my own dogs ample space.
About: I have had dogs in my life from the time I was 8 years old. I am 59 now. I have been a dog trainer for over 20 years and know the importance of exercise and impulse control. Lack of exercise is one of the main contributors to "destruction" in and around the house. If I am walking your dog, we are walking - not sniffing around. I am pretty fit for an old man! With other client's dogs, I can generally walk a mile in 17-20 minutes. If I am boarding, I will "entertain" your pup with games, walks, fetch and plenty of other outside time as much as possible. I live on a nice quiet street that will be safe for them. Give me a call to get things set up for your pooch! I have had dogs off and on (mostly on) since I was 8 years old. A daily routine to take care of dogs is nothing new to me. In fact, it is important to me to have a structured schedule for feeding, potty time, playtime, etc. so the time is easier on human and canine. I try to have a pretty rigid schedule so the dog knows what’s going on and approximately when it will take place. Daily walks and/or play time is daily on my quiet street or in my fenced in backyard. Taking care of dogs is basically what I do 24/7. I am a dog trainer so basically dogs, not just my own, are my life and my livelihood. I have a fenced yard and a dog of my own. I will not just open the door and let the dogs run out to play. I am out there with them every step of the way. I am mindful about whether certain dogs get along or not. I am very meticulous in my care.
About: I have given great care and love to many animals through nearly my entire life. I have a drive and passion to put forth the exact same effort and care to your furry friends! Skills and traits include: *Dependable *Accountable *Great experience with animal care *Work-Ethic *Efficient I am a full time student and cadet at ERAU which can get kind of busy during the week days, but during Summers, breaks, and weekends I am all for grabs! I am devoted to working my schedule around the need your pets! I always maintain a safety oriented mindset as that is a major part of my school studies. I have always been know to have great situational awareness and can seek threats and risk with ease. I have a great understanding of thinking first and acting second when it comes to dealing with animals.
About: I have owned dogs my entire life. I have also been fostering and volunteering for dog rescue for over 20 years. I currently have 2 dogs: 1 pit mix and 2 dachshunds (both are rescue babies). Now that my kids are grown, I am looking to fill my extra time doing what I love. I love being able to spend time loving on dogs. I am mainly looking to do drop in visits after 3pm during the weekdays and anytime on the weekends. I follow the pet parents instructions. I am comfortable letting them outside in a fenced yard or going on walks. I can also give medication as needed. I always make sure to send pictures and video's to pet parents to let them know how their fur baby is doing.

“Olivia was great with our Gracie, she kept her for a week. Olivia did an awesome job caring for our little wiener dog!! When we returned from vacation, Gracie seemed as if she didn’t miss us.”
Joey S.
“We hired Joey to help us begin our training with our Australian Shepherd puppy. One of the reasons we chose Joey was his flexibility and coming to our house. When we started our training our puppy had not had all her shots so didn't want her around other dogs yet. He worked with our schedule to ensure that my husband and I were at home together. He brought a lot of suggestions on training her and encouragement to us to stay the course. He was available for phone or text conversations if we were having an issue between classes. We worked on behavior, commands and potty training. He worked inside and outside at our house and one of our classes went with us to the local dog bark. This really helped ease our fears about being there. I would recommend Joey as he has experience working with dogs and will give your pet the attention they need.”
Ciara M.
“Great experience! Ciara was kind and loving to our fur babies and kept us up to date. Highly recommend!”
Mason B.
“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Mason Burgess to care for my dog, Chance, while I was on vacation. Chance is a very anxious dog with severe separation anxiety, so I was naturally nervous to leave him at first. However, once I met Mason, he immediately put my mind at ease. He asked plenty of questions about Chance and his needs, listened to my concerns, and took the time to build trust with my skittish dog. His genuine care for Chance’s safety and well-being was incredibly reassuring, and I can confidently say he did an exceptional job. I will definitely be hiring him again in the near future!”
Crystal M.
“Crystal has been our dog sitter for over a decade now. There is no one like her, she loves our dogs so much. Her attention to detail and care is top notch. We literally plan our vacations around Crystal’s availability because there’s no one else I’d trust with our babies. She has a true heart for animals, has worked for rescue organizations, fostering and adopting dogs in need. She is so good with my senior dogs and can easily manage their medication and dietary restrictions. She sends photos and gives great updates. Look no further, Crystal is the best.”
