“Rae’na was fantastic with Thanos! She send pictures at every check in. She was very sweet did a meet and greet before and Thanos loves her! Thanks again Rae’na, I will be booking again!”


About: I have been a pet owner since I brought my first dog home at 12yo and told my parents "they said we could keep her overnight to see if we liked her. We currently have three dogs, and my roommate has two. I truly believe that people don't deserve dogs, they are the best! I decided to take a break from working full time, and this is my only job right now. Coming from working 12 hours a days, I understand the guilt that come along with that for pet parents. I'm happy to step in where you can't! I'm used to working with an array of dogs, big and small along with those that have special needs, like my own. I will take whatever precautions necessary, and follow all owner guidelines.

About: I’ve always had animals big or small. I know the feeling of a set schedule. So I’d be so happy to be there for your animals set schedules. I have time in my schedule to hangout with your animals. I can do anything from stopping by to let them out or feed them. Walking and getting exercise would be fun with an animal. My dogs love outside, laying down, playing or going for walks. I can do those for your animals or just hanging inside relaxing and keeping them company.

“Cydney was wonderful and a huge relief to our family as we were scrambling to find a last minute carer for our socially needy cat over a three day weekend! She consistently communicated with us with updates, including photos that showed us how relaxed our cat was with her presence during visits. We were very lucky to be able to book with someone who understood our human & cat needs during our time apart. Highly recommend :)”


About: I grew up around dogs my whole life. I have pet sat both dogs and cats for neighbors and family members! I have walked, fed, and played with pets when under my care. I work full time Monday through Thursday but am looking for jobs in the evenings and on weekends! I am free starting at 6:30 on weekdays! Or anytime on Fridays! I will follow all directions and expectations given by the owner when taking a job. I care with love and with what is best practice for everyone involved.


“First time booking wirh Michelle. She lives in the same town, has all kinds of pets & loves cats. We scheduled a meet & greet to learn what the pets needed. I appreciated that very much. Michelle took fed & watered & took photos of my outdoor cats and also tried to have cuddle, offer affection & pet them time as booked, but cats werent used to her. I thanked her for trying. Good experience and very reliable.”


About: Hi! I am a college student who loves dogs but does not have time to get one full time! I am looking to help you out by taking care of your furry friend while also gaining personal happiness from your pup! I have experience with any age dog including seniors! I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to take care of your pet! I am available MWF anytime and T TH anytime after 11 am! I am available weekends anytime. I am a huge dog lover! When caring for a dog, I ensure they have a safe and comfortable environment with access to fresh water and nutritious food. I provide regular exercise and playtime to keep them physically and mentally stimulated. Additionally, I offer plenty of love and attention to keep them happy.

“Miranda was fantastic. She stopped to meet Zelda before the scheduled walks. She kept me updated and everything went perfectly. Zelda feels comfortable with her already and they get along great. Highly recommended!”


About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my extensive pet care experience, which includes training puppies, providing specialized senior pet care, and a genuine love for animals. I’ve volunteered at the shelter, where I gained invaluable experience fostering dogs in need, including the special bond I formed with my best friend, a rescue dog. I understand each pet's unique needs, whether it’s active playtime for young pups or gentle support for seniors. My commitment to creating a safe and nurturing environment ensures every dog feels at home with me. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine as I work a flexible remote job. This allows me to dedicate ample time to walk, play, and care for your dog throughout the day. I can easily adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs, ensuring they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve while you’re away. Whether it’s regular feeding times, play sessions, or cuddles, your furry friend will always be my priority. In my home, I create a safe and welcoming environment for pets by ensuring all hazardous items are out of reach, providing cozy resting areas, and maintaining a clean space. I have secure play areas where dogs can enjoy themselves without risk. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect their space by following established routines and guidelines. I prioritize safety by keeping doors and gates secure and monitoring pets during playtime. Trust is built through consistent communication, regular updates, and attention to each pet's individual needs, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away.

About: I’ve cared for animals for over 15 years and have fostered more than 50 kittens and puppies along the way. Whether I’m helping a senior dog feel safe and comfortable or keeping up with a playful pup still learning the ropes, I show up with patience, confidence, and love. Your pets are treated like family while you’re away. I maintain their routine, provide consistent care, and make sure they feel seen, safe, and adored. I also keep you in the loop with regular photo updates so you can truly relax knowing your pets (and your home) are in good hands. I take on a limited number of bookings to ensure each pet gets the focused attention they deserve. If you’re looking for someone experienced, reliable, and genuinely passionate about animals, I’d love to connect. After fostering over 50 kittens and puppies, my daily routine has always centered around animal care. Feeding schedules, potty breaks, medication routines, and one-on-one attention are second nature to me. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze in. It’s part of how I live each day. Whether your pet needs structure, flexibility, or a little of both, I’ll meet them exactly where they are. In your home, I care for your pets the same way I care for my own: with consistency, presence, and respect. I follow your routine closely to keep them feeling safe and settled. From walks and meals to playtime and downtime, they’ll get the care they’re used to. I keep your home clean and cared for, and you’ll receive regular photo and message updates so you always know your pets are safe and loved.

About: I have 3 large dogs of my own so I am no newbie to walking big pups! I absolutely love all dogs and am lucky to have the summers off to give them long walks and provide much needed potty breaks! I am off for the summer (June - August) so weekdays at anytime work for me. I also am free to cover while you go on vacations :) I am extra cautious with our fur babies and their safety, happiness, and well-being is of utmost importance When I am in a client’s home or backyard, I am always sure to check the environment so ensure it is safe for pets (i.e. fence is locked, no small pieces around for choking, water available, etc).

About: I am very passionate about dogs and making sure that they receive the care and attention they deserve. I cater to both you and your pets needs, whether they need a quick stroll around the block or a hike through the park. I make sure to provide them with love and care as I would my own pets. Your dog/cats safety and wellbeing is my top priority. What you can expect from me is punctual, dependable, attentive and personalized care. Your animals will be in great hands! My goal has always been to hangout with pets all day. I typically aim for my earliest walk to be around 9am and the latest be closer to 5 or 6pm. I appreciate being able to provide care in an environment that is familiar and comfortable for the animal. I will be attending to your pets every need and prepared for any occurrence.

Mary S.
“Mary is the best!! I have an eight year old anxiety riddled Doberman who is a bit needy and misses her momma. I also have a two year old cat Karen who is full of energy! They both love Mary and enjoy her visits. It gives me great piece of mind to know that my dog and kitty are well cared for while I am away on my vacations. Even if it’s a long work day she can stop during the day to give my dog a break outside and companionship. I live in Garden Prairie and am so glad I found Mary. If you love your pets, give Mary a call. Both your pets and you will be glad you did!! Amanda”

Marengo dog parents share their Rover experiences
Lisa was a great sitter! She was very kind and attentive, and took great care of our animals. They were happy and content when we got home 🙂 Our GSD is a very itchy girl and usually stress itches badly while we're on trips (even with a cone, she's sneaky and also uses her back feet to scratch). This trip, she didn't seem to stress itch herself at all which is an AMAZING sign. I will definitely be a returning client, thank you Lisa!

Our first drop-in visit with Lisa went great! She proactively messaged us the day prior, showed up right on time, sent some photos and promptly added follow-up notes on the visit. We feel very confident inviting Lisa into our home for a one-week stay coming up later this month.
