“Amina was a wonderful sitter for my two cats while my partner and I were away on a trip. She went above and beyond, frequently scooping their litter, playing with our energetic kitty, and checking in on our shy girl and taking her picture in her hiding spot. We looked forward to her updates (with the cutest pictures) everyday and she was super responsive and asked great questions when she needed to.”


About: I have taken care of dogs on and off for 2 years now, and have decided to make a more permanent space in my life for it. I love all doggies, and cannot wait to meet your sweet fur baby! I have experience with senior care and puppy care. I am currently a full time stay at home mom, so I am available any time to chat or answer any orations you may have. I have a non fenced in yard, but have plenty of time to take your pup on walks around town. I live in a friendly small town neighborhood!

“Kinzley we can’t thank you enough for your help with all our fur babies on our wedding day. I was able enjoy the day knowing they were in good hands. Will definitely reach out for future visits if needed. You’re the best!!”


“Megan was wonderful! Communicates very well took care of bear like if it was her own pet! Absolutely recommend Meagan! Looked after bear for about 6 months, I was very please.”


About: My family has had dogs my whole life. A couple years ago, I started professionally dog sitting and I greatly enjoy it. I'm patient, I learn each dog's personality, and I make sure they have a safe fun time. I currently balance different self-scheduled gig work. Having no set or minimum hours, my time is highly flexible. I can schedule to fit your needs. I keep a careful eye on pet behavior and surroundings. For yards, I make sure fencing/gates are secure and keep an eye the dogs. For walking, I ensure leashes, collars are comfortable but very secure and tied to my arm as a back up. I keep a bottle of water. I can walk fast and keep pace but also encourage the dog to not wear themself out.

“Miranda has been amazing in caring for our four kitties while we were gone for the week! We are so appreciative of her kindness and attentiveness to our fur babies. She did a wonderful job keeping us up to date on each visit she had with them. Would definitely recommend her to anyone!”


“Erika has been great every time I’ve used her. She carefully listened to how best to deal with all 3 of my dogs, including their weird quirks and anxiety. When I booked her again she remembered what I told her the first time so I only had to update her on anything that had changed. She always sends pictures and a lovely summary of each dog and how it went. I will continue to book her as long as she remains available.”


“Angie was great, filled in for us last minute! She was easy to work with and accommodated a virtual meeting to go over instructions to fit our schedule. We were very happy with the care our two cats received!!”


About: We have been taking care of pets for the past 5 years, we live on the outskirts of town on a farm so your loved one will have plenty of room for walks & gator rides! We have 3 corgis of our own as well as cattle, goats, sheep, & chickens! There is so much room to run and we take pride in giving your pet the experience of a lifetime! We recently remodeled the garage next to home into a kennel facility as well. This is great for some privacy while eating & sleeping! It is also heated! We understand that pets can be nervous, so this serves as a great spot to get comfortable! We can take care of your fur babies on weeks days & weekends with short notice & everything in between! We have three extremely friendly corgis, who love to play & snuggle! We are able to accommodate any times that are needed! I stay home with our little one so my schedule is flexible to fit your needs! We do have a kennel set-up so that your furbaby can feel it has a space of its own but we also have open doors when it comes to our home! We want your pet to feel the most comfortable during their stay with us!

“Tee-Tee overall is an exceptional at her job. She took good care of our dogs while we were away. We trust her coming into our home for the first time and she did not disappoint. Tee-Tee was not on the scheduled time that we both agreed upon. However she did communicate with me each time she was late to perform her duties. Overall I will definitely use her again because we are pleased with her service. :-)”


About: My name is Brittany, I have recently transitioned to working from home. I have a very flexible schedule, which means that I have open availability for walks or drop-ins and will be able to be with your dogs the entire time they are in my care! While I have just started out on Rover, I am still an experienced animal caretaker. Previously I have worked with horses, dog sat in college as well as for family and friends. I treat all animals just like they are apart of my family, this means they sleep in the bed, are allowed on furniture, and are given plenty of love and affection. My dogs and I also love to go on outings to the park, hikes, biking, find water to play in, as well as walks around the neighborhood. I have experience with dogs of almost any size and would be happy to welcome your dog to my family while you are away. I work from home, so I have open availability. This means I can do walks or drop-ins whenever needed. If your dog is in my care while being boarded, at doggy daycare, or house-sitting, I will be with them the entire time! I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do have a long line to allow your dog freedom to play in the yard. In my home we have rest breaks around meal times, and dogs will be separated for meals and to have personal time to themselves. I do have kennels if your dog prefers to sleep in a kennel while in my care. But my two German Shepherds love other dogs and would be happy to invite other dogs into our home. In a client's home I will go off what their schedule is so they have their normal day. I will treat your home just as my own and will leave it in just as good if not better condition than what I found it.

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was born. We are currently training a "super mut", Pudge, who is turning into such a good boy! Being around animals brings joy to my day. I work full-time, but remote four days per week and have a flexible schedule throughout the day. I love to walk! I am flexible throughout the day with my full-time, remote job schedule. I am happy to take care of pets throughout the day from early morning to evening. Lots of walks and play time in this house! I currently have a high-energy dog, so there is never a dull or still moment! Each dog is different though and I am willing to flex to fit the dogs needs.

About: I love dogs, cats, small pets, big pets, furry pets, scaley pets, pretty much all animals. I am attending college to be a vet. I have experience with all shapes and sizes and love them all. I'm available most evenings (M, W, F, anytime after 3:00, and Tu, Tr, anytime after 3:30) and weekends at any time. I can check in on your dog (or any other pet) and take them for walks, feed them, play with them, or clean any messes. I can stay over night with your dog provided I am the only person in the house hold and the dog is comfortable with strangers. Thank you for taking the time to learn a bit about me and what I can do for you and your furry friend. M-F after 3pm and weekends any time. There is some wiggle room and some times where I’ve got my own dog to look out for. We can always work it out! I’ve got a large home with a large fenced in backyard. My partner and I both love dogs, and we have one as well. We’ve got lots of treats(allergies friendly) and toys to play with.

About: I am a fun, loving 23-year-old who has owned and cared for a lot of pets growing up. I raise dogs so I have been exposed to all ages and stages of puppies. I also have and still occasional work as a vet tech so I am comfortable with lots of breeds along with cats. I am comfortable with injections and administering medications if necessary. I am a stay at home mom looking to spend time with my kiddo. I am looking for families. I have 2 miniature Schnauzers that live full time with me. I will be flexible and am willing to work with you and your pets needs. Feel free to message me with any questions. I will get back with you as soon as possible. I am free most week days, but like to spend time with family and travel on the weekends. I am free most times of the day working around my daughters naps and feeds. I will be able to do drop in visits to feed and water your pets, play with them, or take them potty on a leash (unless yard is fenced). I am also comfortable taking walks if weather permits.
