“Jillian was great! She came over to meet our fur baby a couple days before she was set to stay with him overnight. She got down on the floor and was playing with him and he was so excited! She sent us pictures throughout our trip so we could see how he was doing. Will definitely ask her to come back in the future!”

About: My experience includes puppy training and group integration, command training, end of life palliative care, medicine administration, grooming, and lots of recreation/enrichment/engagement! As for dog types all are fur babies and I'll see that they are treated as such! Currently in-between full-time employment, ready to devote my time to the lovely care of our fur companions. I tend to be free on the weekends and the beginning of the week. I follow set instructions laid down by the owners, any preferences or quirks of individual pets will be accommodated for your pets' and your family comfort.
About: I am a big time dog lover! I work from home and am able to be here with the pets all day and take them out at least every 2 hours or as needed. I have a big house with a decent sized yard (NOT fenced). I'd love a few more companions hanging out with me and my dog, Lola! There aren't a lot of pet sitting options in this area so here I am making it an option :) Please come check me out! I work from home so i am here all day with the pets and able to tend to them as needed. i get an hour break for lunch and thats usually when i take my dog out to play/walk. I am available for day time pet sitting during the week. If needed me on a weekend we can most likely work something out-case by case basis-but it wasn't something i wanted to promote on my profile.

About: I always tune into the unique personality of each animal and I don't rest until I'm sure the animal knows its safe, loved and cared for. Since I was born I have loved animals so genuinely and patiently that I've never encountered a problem, even with the hard to figure out ones. I love them all and my husband does as well. Therefore we treat our pets like they're one of us, with plentiful attention. We are complete home-bodies. We like spending time outdoors, and going for walks. Our home is very inviting as well, with a fenced yard, multiple spare rooms, close to many trails near by and lots of spare blankets and pillows. Feel free to give any advise on how to care better for your dog, and I will be more than happy to accommodate.
“Rhonda was so kind and provided detailed information on how my elderly dog was doing while I was away. Her communication allowed me peace of mind that my dog was well cared for. I would absolutely recommend her, she took excellent care of my dog and even got her to eat her meds which she typically refuses to do’”

“Mac was in the absolute best hands with AnnaJulia and Raphael. I truly couldn’t have asked for better communication during my time away. I received consistent updates, great photos, and so much reassurance that my guy was not only well cared for, but genuinely happy and loving life. It was clear he felt completely comfortable and at ease the entire time. After experiencing such a high level of care with a personal touch I can’t imagine trusting anyone else to watch Mac in the future.”

“Eliot was on time, flexible, and great with the dogs. We had a great meet and greet where she walked us through how she sits. She set clear expectations and made us feel very confident about leaving our dogs in her care. We have three high energy dogs and she kept them happy and healthy throughout her stay. We came home to happy dogs and a clean house. We couldn't be happier with the job Eliot did and hope to have her sit again.”
About: I have always had a dog growing up. Currently have a two-year-old pup named Anna K. I also house sit for a friend our mine down the road every now and then. I can be very flexible making myself available. If you can, a couple days notice would be better. But if not, you can still ask! Have tried multiple training techniques with all the dogs we have had, electric fence, leash, a tie-out cable, and some we eventually let out on their own when they are ready. No small objects around, especially as a puppy, try not to feed them anything but their required food.
About: I have worked at a Veterinary Hospital for about 5 years, working to keep their experience as comfortable as possible, along with growing up with cats, dogs, and farm animals.I do work another job so for house/dog sitting I would be getting to the location usually between 6:30-7ish depending on location, so keep this in mind when considering booking me While I work full time my schedule is set so there will not be likely to have unexpected changes giving your animals a good structure to work with I can come to your location to let your dogs out/take them for a walk, as well as feed them and get in playtime while keeping them in a space they feel comfortable.
“Lauren was an absolute pleasure. She gave my sweet girl lots of loving, adventures and snuggles. She left the house in great condition. I highly recommend her for all your pet needs!”

“Richard was extremely patient with my rescue, when Richard arrived she decided she didn't like him. My other dog joined in. After some treats and patience on Richard's part, they warmed up and went out for him!”

About: Hi there! I’ve been dog and cat sitting for over 15 years, and in that time, I’ve developed strong connections with both the pets I care for and their owners. I treat every pet like a member of my family, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and entertained while their owners are away. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of building lasting friendships with the families I work with, which has made my job even more fulfilling. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or just cuddling on the couch, I provide personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs and preferences. My goal is to give both pets and their owners peace of mind, knowing they’re in trusted hands. I'm comfortable with giving medicine and/or any personalized needs your pet needs! I'm always communicating with the pet's owners to ease their worry and sending pictures to show how much love they are getting. I look forward to meeting your furry friends and continuing to share the joy of pet sitting! I'm currently working full-time, 8:30-3:30pm but have evenings off and weekends off. I am also willing to sit on my vacations and have summers off. When pets stay with me, they get to enjoy a comfortable, safe, and pet-friendly environment. I have a cozy space for play and relaxation. I provide daily walks, interactive playtime, and lots of cuddles to ensure they feel at home. I follow any specific routines your pet is used to, including feeding schedules and bedtime routines, to keep them comfortable and stress-free. When caring for pets in their own home, I strive to maintain a familiar and loving environment. I follow your pet’s usual routine to keep them relaxed and happy. I provide companionship, regular feeding, walks, and playtime, along with any additional care they may need. Whether it's administering medication or keeping your home tidy, I take the responsibility seriously. My goal is to ensure your pets feel safe and loved while you’re away, and you can rest easy knowing they’re in great hands.
“The best dog/house sitter ever! Our dog was very loved and the house was spotless when we returned! She was also very good about keeping us updated with pictures of our pup when we were away. We will definitely use Maggie in the future!”

“Alexis went above and beyond to make our trip stress-free while caring for our three dogs and cat. She was always quick to respond to texts and was happy to do multiple meet-and-greets so everyone felt comfortable before the stay. She followed all of our instructions and clearly took great care of our pets. She even went the extra mile around the house (laundry done, etc.), which was a very appreciated surprise. We’d happily book Alexis again!”

“Kelly is a true gem! We are new to Rover so we had no experience and did not know what to expect. We could sense Kelly's genuineness and caring demeanor at our first meet and greet. Monroe was so well cared for while we were away for 5 days! Kelly went above and beyond in so many ways. Thank you for giving us this gift of time away with no worries about our little old Yorkie.”

Locke Mills pet parents share their Rover experiences
There aren’t sufficient words to describe how grateful we are for finding Michelle - like most, our furbabies are beloved members of the family - like finding a babysitter or nanny, it can be unsettling to entrust the care of your loved ones to a stranger, even more so when they stay in your own home… not only did Michelle spend 2 hours during our meet and greet getting acclimated with our home and the history of each pet but also bonding with all of the furbabies so they were quite familiar with her when she would arrive to sit and we wouldn’t be there for introductions … throughout the time they were under her care she reached out with updates and photos… she was not only responsible for keeping our dogs out of mischief during our absence but also administering medication to our 19 year old cat… it was the 1st time we were away, overnight, from the “kids” and Michelle was a blessing - her care went over and beyond any expectations we might have had - i highly recommend Michelle and cannot give her enough praise or kudos for all that she did
