Experienced and Loving Caregiver ❤️
Pet care experience
Hello there! My name is Anika and I used to be a pet caregiver on Rover a while ago when I was going through college, but decided to reactivate my account to come back on board! A little bit about myself... I received my Master's Degree from LSU and have been working in my career field for a few years now, but I still very much enjoy spending time with animals and thought that continuing with Rover was a great way to be able to spend time with animals while making an extra income on the side! I am currently working at a local hospital. Therefore, although I am newly back on Rover, I have been with Rover in the past. I am also a go-to foster and volunteer for several local rescue groups, so I have experience with all types of animals (mainly cats and dogs) and welcome all. I also often help train dogs for animal rescue organizations to get them ready for their new loving forever homes. I have also grown up with animals my whole life and my sweet beloved senior dog recently passed away; my "soul dog" as some may say. I had him for a little over 13 amazing years. However, being able to work with and volunteer with animals has really been great, which is why I definitely wanted to continue with Rover again. You can rest assure that when you leave your beloved fur babies with me that they are in great hands. I am a safe and responsible person. I am and always have been an all-around animal-lover. If your dog is a couch potato, that's fine... we can curl up and watch a movie on the couch together with some belly rubs! If your dog is more high-energy, that's fine... we can go for walks, jogs, play fetch in the yard, play with toys and more! The same goes for cats, bunnies and other types of animals; I can meet the pet client where they are at based on their personality. I have over 20 years of experience with animals from both personal and professional experience. I have experience with all types of animals of all ages ranges (from young to senior), sizes and breeds. Thank you for considering or choosing me and I hope you have a peaceful and restful 2026!

Anika responded quickly to my request with 24 hours notice. She and took an abundance of pictures and sent in timely fahsion. Thanks so much Anika!
Anika did a fantastic job housesitting for us (2 dogs & 1 cat). Great communication and updates. Lots of pictures. Would highly recommend.
Anika Ellis is truly an animal lover. I would recommend her to any and everyone for she has truly shown compassion and love to all living things. Truly a kind soul who is very protective,kind, and on time. Safety is the number one key and she makes sure that it’s safe and a fun environment. I think she is more than capable of handling the job. It’s as if it was meant just for her.
