About: Since i was younger I’ve always loved dogs. Whether my own or volunteering at a shelter my passion has always been animals <3 When i heard about Rover i was ecstatic. Having the chance to meet more fur babies , getting to know each personality, and learning more everyday is something i am looking forward to. I do work full time but an early morning shift (4am-12pm) I have the rest of my day, why not fill it doing something i love? Which is pet care! I take pride in animals and often feel as though i can connect with them better than humans! Other than working in the morning my day is free! I live in an apartment which does not have a yard, but there is a park less than a 2 minute walk from where i stay! My neighborhood is dog friendly and does require leashes on every dog! I can crate your dog if needed, and make adjustments as requested.
“Rebecca was AMAZING! I was more than grateful that she was able to watch my baby last minute for a trip. I loved seeing all the pictures of them cuddling lol loving on my baby as I would have if I were home. Communication was excellent. We will definitely use her services again.”

About: I’ve loved these animals my entire life. I can’t explain my connection and passion ! It would be my pleasure to board your loved-one. I have lots of space and company, (if preferred) and I also specialize and am very experienced with aggressive, traumatized, puppies, seniors, and even special needs. I’ve decided to go out on a limb and do this full time. I am typically available 24/7 that is subject to change but availability will be updated I have a fairly large, secure, and gated backyard. I also own a large professional grade kennel and also smaller (sleeping kennels ) for privacy and securitycurrently own 2 dogs both both large but friendly l. My male Django is my 11 year old male he’s old, wise and very gentle. Rose is my loving dog daughter who is about 5 and very sassy, active, but also very obedient . They are accustomed to having company come and go. Your dog will be receive love … cleaning… attention and careful provisions CHARGE FREE. The only service I currently charge for is boarding . Everything else is FREE
“Ann is so great with our 2 pups. They are great at communication and sending updates during and after their visit. We will definitely be booking them for future needs. 10/10 would recommend! Thanks always Ann!”

“Kristen followed my instructions perfectly! It’s really hard to find someone to trust with watching my fur babies but Kristen’s care and communication is top notch and I will be happy to use her services in the future.”

“Very happy with the service that Murphy provided. He came through for me last minute and followed directions to the T. Thank you again and will use Murphy in the future.”

About: I’ve grown up around pets my whole life — including three dogs, two turtles, two hamsters, and several fish — so I’m comfortable caring for animals with different personalities and needs. While I currently live in a student apartment an hour away from my family’s home (where my dog lives), I stay active in pet care whenever I visit and love spending time with animals whenever I can. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure every pet feels comfortable and cared for, whether that means playtime, walks, or simply keeping them company. For me, it’s their stay, their way! They lead me on their walks, so I allow them to safely do what they want, within reason of course. I might even bring them along for a walk request and make a new friend! Pet stores are a given. Any specific requests for them? Let me know! I allow them on my bed and couch, unless you prefer them not to. I always keep the water bowl full and pets happy and healthy. Allow me to meet yall and lets play fetch! I do board only one family pack at a time. I’ll even give them a bath if you want! Just bring their shampoo if they have sensitive skin! Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine because I love spending time with animals and enjoy being active. I’m usually up early for work or school, so I have plenty of time for morning walks, feedings, or playtime before starting my day. In the afternoons and evenings, I have flexible hours that allow me to check in on pets, go for walks, or provide overnight care when needed. Even though I live in a student apartment, I regularly visit my family home to help care for our dog — feeding, walking, and spending quality time with him. Caring for pets is something I naturally make time for because it’s relaxing and rewarding for me. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always make sure to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. I take time to learn each pet’s feeding schedule, favorite toys, walking habits, and any special needs they may have. I make sure they always have fresh water, get plenty of playtime or exercise, and feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I also keep the home tidy and send regular updates or pictures so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for. If I’m caring for pets in my own space, I make sure the environment is safe, calm, and clean — with no hazards and plenty of attention, affection, and comfort.
“Thomas did a fantastic job taking care of my dog! He was communicative, reliable, and sent great updates that gave me total peace of mind. I came home to my dog happy and well cared for. I will absolutely book with Thomas again and highly recommend him! 😊”

“Cecil was great! Our three cats are trouble makers but Cecil made it so that we didn’t have to worry about them while my husband and I were on our honeymoon! Will definitely be booking with Cecil in the future (:”

About: I've taken care of animals of all ages since I was a child. So your senior pets are safe with me. Your pets needs medication? Not a problem. I know how to preform CPR if an emergency were to happen. I set my own work schedule. Which in turn let's me have plenty of time to care for your pets in the way they need. I have a big yard which let's your pets have plenty of room to explore. I have one pup of my own so your animals will feel comfortable in my home. I have a room dedicated for pet sitting if they get overwhelmed and need their own space.
About: I offer a wide variety of pet care from puppies to senior pets!! I am familiar with giving medicine (as needed) and giving accommodations for pets that need it. I have experience with training pups and the ability to uphold the training already given. I currently have sunday-tuesday off and am available for walks and drop in visits on those days. I am available for boarding at my house all week. Other availability can be made upon request. I respect everyone’s space as I would want to be respected. That extends to you entrusting me to care for your fur baby. At my house, pup’s will be crated when I am not home and will have time to exert energy daily. At your home, I will assume whatever routine you provide me until your return.
About: What sets me apart is my calm, caring approach and experience with all types of pets. I’m comfortable with any pet whether it is senior care, and pets that need extra patience. I treat every animal like family and always keep you updated with photos and messages so you know they’re in good hands. I work from home and have the ability to be available for your pets needs. I will provide regular potty breaks, walks, and attention. They will feel right at home. I have a fenced yard and two other fur babies ( 2 dogs male and female) along with Tweenie bop children. Our dogs roam the house freely and are spoiled with attention.
“She was really nice and patient definitely will have her sitting my maya and Lucas again if needed she is very trustworthy thank you so much for last minute booking approval.”

“Brittany is a fantastic pet sitter and just plain nice. Her relaxed demeanor was so impressive that my extremely shy babies came out to see her when she dropped in.”

“Whitney did a great job of taking care of our pup while we were gone! It was my first time leaving my dog home alone and Whitney helped ease any concerns! She was a great communicator throughout the process and always had updates and photos for us. Will use her again in the future!”


“Took care of the cats as requested and made sure to ask questions! She made sure to clean the litter box and provide the cats plenty of attention ! Great cat sitter and would definitely book again”

“Darayell was absolutely amazing with our pups. She went above and beyond to take care of them. She always made sure they had their toys and bones in their crates with them and made sure they were always safe. She did everything that we asked and more. We highly highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone to care for their pups while they are away.”
