About: I have had cats & medium-to-large breed dogs my entire life. I have experience with senior dogs, especially grumpy cats, and giving oral medications. I am currently a stay-at-home dog mom to my spoiled rottweiler, Remington; so I have time during the day for walks or check-ins. I am a stay-at-home dog mom, so I have my days & evenings free to do check-ins or walks. I do NOT currently offer housesitting or boarding because of my spoiled rottweiler. 🐶💓 I ensure leashes are well fitting and follow all instructions provided. I secure any escape routes, and double check doors are locked or secure. I also make sure any choking hazards are put up or disposed of. Ensuring the safety of your pet is my number 1 priority.
About: I grew up on a farm! So from chasing chickens to rounding up horses, I’ve had the best time being around animals. The current lady of the household is named Stix. I am full time dog mom! I work full time but always find the time for my Stix girl. We take many walks throughout the day and all the pets you could imagine! My dog at home has a safe loving environment. I’d love to provide that to your loved fur baby by staying true to your wants and needs for them.
About: I am currently a veterinary assistant at a large local animal shelter in fort wayne. I worked mainly in the feline department for a year then moved to the medical sides of things. I want people to rest assured that I will treat their pet as if they were mine I go to school full time and work part time but I will be as flexible and as helpful as I am able to be! I have a spare bedroom if need be, but I will travel as much as I need to, to make sure your best is being cared for!

I’ve worked with cats to hamsters to farm animals! I’ve given animals the proper medications that were needed. I absolutely love working with pets and animals they bring me so much joy and purpose! I am currently working part-time so that allows me more time to spend with your pets! I am currently available Monday-Friday from 8:45am-2:00pm and later that evening 6:45pm-9:30pm. No day is the same, so I might have some free time in between! I have a fenced in yard, and plenty of space for your fur baby to get some exercise. The pets that come to visit, love how peaceful the environment is, they have plenty to explore.
About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover with 5 years of experience caring for pets, including pet sitting for family, friends, and people in my community. I’ve always been someone others can trust with their pets, and I genuinely love getting to know each animal’s personality, quirks, and routines. 💗 I have pets of my own, so I understand how hard it can be to leave your fur babies with someone else. When they’re in my care, I treat them like my own with plenty of love, attention, playtime, cuddles, and the (not so) occasional treat! 💗 I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats, including pets with special needs. I have experience administering oral and injectable medications to both dogs and cats and am comfortable following detailed instructions and maintaining their normal routines. 💗 I also always like to do a meet & greet before accepting a booking. It gives me a chance to meet you and your pet, learn their routine, go over any special instructions, and make sure everyone feels comfortable. 💗 I’m also naturally a clean and tidy person and am great about cleaning up after myself. I’ll take care of your home just as thoughtfully as I take care of your pets and will always do my best to leave things as clean, or even cleaner, than I found them. 💗 I do unfortunately work full time, but my schedule varies throughout the week and I only work 3/7 days a week. Other than that, I’m a free woman willing to watch your fur babies for you. I am great with communication so we can always discuss availability! On the days I do work I get off at 6:30 PM and I’m free for the rest of the night for drop-in’s, walks, or an overnight stay! I will always respect your wishes in your home. I’ve always been a respectful and trustworthy person, I clean up after myself (and any fur babies), I’ll even leave the place better than I found it. When I’m caring for your pet, all my focus is on them and their needs, I keep a tight ship around here! I love the idea of pet sitting in your pets home because it keeps them comfortable in their own safe environment and stick to the routines that they are used to.
About: Ive taken care of pets my entire life, but professionally over the past four years in shelter settings! I have also recently graduated with a bachelors in animal science and have gotten to meet lots of intelligent animal lovers. I love getting to know a pets personality and meeting their needs fully! I will always respect boundaries and be there to be a comforting friend to your pets! i have yet to start my full time position but my partner works 3rds so i am often left bored at times! Even when i work during the day or mornings, i have a busy brain and like to stay that way! I will always meet your pets needs fully! Each pet is individual and deserves to have specialized care that meets their needs 100%! I will always respect a pet and their home!
About: Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and trustworthy pet lover who would be happy to care for your furry family members. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, and I’ll treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or simply some company while you’re away, I’m happy to help! I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re gone. I also love keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾❤️ I currently have a lot of free time! I’m can give your pets the time and care it takes to keep them comfortable while you are away. Whether that is overnight visits or daytime drops in. I have the time and patience to give your pets the undivided attention they need to be comfortable. I can spend as much time with them as your request. :)
About: I have been taking care of my 18-year-old cat since she was born. She has recently gone deaf and requires more attention. For two years, I frequently took care of a family with 5 children and 2 Great Danes. I give my cat attention daily, making sure she feels loved and content. This often includes filling her food, water, and changing her litter box, as well as many pets and cuddles. I would love to walk, play with, and take care of your pets. At home, I make sure my cat has a clean litter box and plenty of attention.
“Taylor did a wonderful job taking care of my girls. I received a picture every day and that reassured me that the girls were doing okay. I will definitely be having Taylor watch my girls again!”
“Makayla has been absolutely perfect. She has been doing drop-ins for my cat and dog. Responsible, timely, communicative, and so much more. She’s a sitter you can count on to go above and beyond. She had been sending so many pictures/videos of my fur babies and I’m so extremely grateful for that. She’s super flexible as my schedule was a bit chaotic so I loved that too. I would 100% book her again. My animals seemed to love her!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - New Haven
Edmy is our favorite cat sitter! She is always so kind and sends us lots of pictures! We have an older cat with medical issues and Edmy has always informed us of any issues or concerns she has about him. I know she truly cares for our kitties like we do. I use to worry about leaving our older cat, but since we have found Edmy I can rest easy knowing he is in the best hands. Our other cat loves to play and Edmy always tells us just how playful and fun he is. She sends lots of cute pictures of them playing together! Hands down the best sitter around!

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
