Alexis is phenomenal with my 3 pups. I’ve been working longer hours at work and she has been an absolute blessing in helping me care for them. She is kind and proven to be very trust worthy. Thank you Alexis for caring for mine as if they were yours!

Bridget did great with our cats while we were out of town. She cleaned up their messes and gave our older cat her meds every day. Her communication was great, and I got pics every day! Will definitely use her again!

About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life, from farm animals to household pets, big and small, healthy and sick. Saying I love being around animals would honestly be an understatement! Over the years, I’ve helped care for ducks, horses, hamsters, rabbits, dogs, and more on a daily basis. I grew up with my own pup, Klare, and spent years taking her on daily walks and activities to help her burn off all that pit bull energy. Currently, I help care for a Pomeranian, a Wirehaired Pointer, and a Pit Bull mix, giving me experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes and strengths, and I’m very attentive to animal behavior and body language to help keep pets safe, comfortable, and happy. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, companionship, or overnight care, I will treat them like they’re my own. I’d love the opportunity to walk, care for, or pet sit your furry family member! ❤️🐾 I am a full time student with a rotating clinical schedule, but I have availability throughout the week and on weekends. I keep a flexible schedule and am happy to work with pet owners to find times that fit their needs. 🐶🐾❤️ Im very respectful of one’s accommodations and requirements. I take full responsibility to leave you happy and worry free with everything your pet needs. Need an update? A picture of ur pet on the walk or while you’re gone? I got you! I can apply myself to any tasks needed.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs. I’m comfortable maintaining routines, administering medications, and providing calm, attentive care. I’ve completed training and obedience work through Cincinnati Canine Companions, giving me a strong foundation in positive reinforcement and canine behavior. I tailor my care to each dog’s needs, with extra patience and gentle support for senior dogs. After recently losing my dog, I wanted to continue sharing care and companionship with dogs while offering calm, reliable support to their families. I treat every dog with the same care, patience, and respect I give my own. Pet care fits smoothly into my routine. I have a flexible schedule with availability some mornings, most afternoons and evenings, and weekends, allowing me to accommodate routine care, last-minute needs, and consistent visits. I prioritize safety, trust, and clear communication at every visit. When possible, I like to meet pets and owners in advance to help build familiarity and reduce stress. I carefully follow established routines, medication instructions, and household guidelines. I’m especially attentive to senior or anxious dogs who may need extra patience, gentle handling, or slower-paced care. I respect your home, secure doors and gates, and provide calm, reliable care so your pet feels safe and supported while you’re away.

About: Dogs are the most awesome pets to have. I love spending every free moment I have with mine Toby and Lance. They bring me happiness whenever I see them. They put me in check with what is important. I would have 20 of these little guys of my own if that would be possible. So instead I decided to become a pet-sitter and enjoy other people's pets. This also gives my dogs play time and social interaction with others. The greatest and most memorable times are the times spent with dogs. These guys deserve the best care and happiness we can provide them. So now Rover.com has provided me the opportunity to share my love for animals. You will not have any worries or doubts your will be in great hands of a responsible and attention to detail pet sitter.. Thanks for checking out my profile. I hope you book me soon for your pets!

About: I’ve been in pet care for many years taking care of my own pets and other pets in my pre-vet collegiate career. I have background experience in agriculture and large animal care as well. I work from home so my pets are my day long coworkers! They help give me structure and a routine instead of sitting at my desk all day long. Spending time with them is always something to look forward to. I treat any animal the same as I treat my own pets. My dog is the light of my life and I know other pet parents feel the same about their own babies.

About: I am active and love to be active with a canine. I moved back to Louisiana from Hawaii in 2021. I have been an active Rover sitter in Honolulu since 2018. I love dogs and enjoy when they visit my home. My sweet Bear passed away last year so opening my home to care for other fur babies is extra special. I would really like to share the love I have to give with your dog/s. Also, I know dogs miss their owners and get lonely when their loved ones are away. I enjoy being able to keep your dog/s company and make sure they have all of their needs met; love, attention, treats, activities, etc. I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals (wild and domestic). I have owned dogs, cats, cows, horses, rabbits, chickens, sheep, goats, pigs, guinea pigs, hamsters, skunk, fish, turtles, sugar gliders, and prairie dogs. I have a college degree in biology and I worked as a veterinary tech while attending college. I work and babysit part-time so my schedule is flexible. I am home to cuddle and spend time in the yard as needed. We love to play outside. I have a fenced in yard with quite neighbors. It is very peaceful in my backyard. I love to spend time outdoors in my yard unless it is extremely hot or raining. I also love to take fur babies on outings to parks and wildlife areas.

Chelsea was a real life saver. I put a request in at the last minute and she was able to accommodate my needs. She communicated clearly, helped me navigate Rover, and sent me updates with pictures of my happy pup. And she was even able to give the cat some love - which is rare since he’s a jerk. I would use Chelsea again in a heartbeat!

About: I’ve been taking care of pets for over 7 years and have had cats and dogs my whole life. I truly love all animals and have cared for many, including some from birth who lost their mothers. From playful pups to senior pets, I treat every animal like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I currently work full-time during the day, but I’m off in the evenings, on the weekends and have half days on Wednesdays and Fridays. When I’m free, I plan on dedicating to pet care and schoolwork. I have an inside cat, but he is house trained and yard trained. I also did this with my grandparent’s dog who they’ve had since 2018. She is a very playful dog who loves outside play. They had a fenced in yard, but I would take her to the park often to give her more room to run around.

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated, long‑time animal care professional with over 5 years of experience as a veterinary technician and another 5 years working in animal rescue and adoption services. I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments, including seniors, special‑needs pups, and dogs who require behavior‑savvy handling. My vet tech background means I’m comfortable with medication administration, monitoring health changes, basic first aid, and recognizing early signs of stress or illness. My rescue work has given me deep experience with fearful, energetic, or previously underserved dogs, and I always meet each dog exactly where they are—patiently and positively. Above all, I’m an all‑around animal person who truly loves building trust and making sure your dog feels safe, understood, and well‑cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, enrichment, cuddles, or keeping a consistent routine, I’m here to give your pup the same level of care I’d want for my own. I currently work full time but will make your pets a priority. I can drop in any time in the morning/afternoon. Weekends are a breeze and I can do over nights. I can be flexible to any pet parents needs. We have a doggy park, or I can leash walk in my own yard. I have 3 very friendly, senior dogs. I can crate animals or leave them out. I can pretty much do it all in whatever environment if comfortable for clients.

Callie did great overall! I’ve never booked with any professional sitter before so I was a little nervous about my cat being taken care of. She reassured me, sent check in pictures of Bee, and followed the list I gave her. My only complaint is we requested our litter bag to be thrown out 1-2 days before our arrival, and I figured that automatically implied the outside trash can, as we were gone on our honeymoon, so when we got back our house snuck horribly from the poop and pee in out kitchen trashcan.

Alexis is the only person I trust with my pets. She always goes above and beyond to ensure they're cared for, and she is an excellent communicator as well. Genuinely, I would rather adjust my plans than choose another sitter.
