About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my years of hands-on experience caring for pets in a home setting. I've been pet-sitting since high school, providing not just daily walks and care, but also overnight stays and home care, ensuring both pets and their homes are well looked after. I’m experienced in caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need extra playtime to senior dogs who require gentle care and patience. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I make sure to follow their schedule closely—whether it’s feeding, administering medications, or just giving them extra love and attention while their owners are away. Beyond pet care, I also respect and maintain the home by keeping it clean and secure, so clients can travel with peace of mind. I provide regular updates with photos and messages, so pet parents always feel connected. My goal is to ensure that your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for in your absence, and that you return to a happy, stress-free home! Now that I’ve graduated, I have a more flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and energy to provide reliable, attentive pet care. I’m able to accommodate a wide range of needs, from midday check-ins to extended overnight stays. I follow your pet's usual schedule, including feeding, walks, playtime, and bedtime to minimize stress while you're away. I make sure your dog gets the right amount of exercise, whether that's a daily long walk or a short potty break. I spend quality time with your pet, giving them affection, playtime, and attention to prevent loneliness. For home care, I keep the house tidy, bring in mail, water plants, and ensure everything stays secure while you're away. I send daily updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and cared for.
“Carla was able to accommodate me and my cat TK with very short notice. She went above and beyond what I would expect from a sitter. I would highly recommend and will absolutely book again.”
About: Growing up on a farm means I have an abundance of experience with animals of all shapes and sizes. This experience has only grown thanks to the 1000+ hours spent caring for a great variety of animals thanks to my preparation for and training in veterinary school. I have worked in several veterinary clinics, a couple of shelter settings, and a commercial aviary. This means I am incredibly comfortable caring for all kinds of pets of any age, as well administering medications and keeping up with unique needs. Much of my love for veterinary medicine comes from the opportunity to bond with people and their pets, and providing pet care is another amazing chance to do just that. I would love to serve you and your four-legged family! Being a student allows for a very flexible schedule, perfect for attentive and personalized pet care! Much of my course work can be done online, so I am often free to hang out with your furry friends while I study throughout the day. I try to build my schedule where I don't need to leave pets alone longer than 6 hours maximum, and I am willing to adjust according to your pet's needs. I take great care to keep your pet's routine as similar as possible to their normal to minimize stress. I love to schedule a meet & greet beforehand to get to know you and your pet, and get to know all the details of their routine. I know what questions to ask to make the process as enjoyable and stress free as possible. I also know how nice it is to come back to a clean home. Therefore, when staying in a client's home I take great care to leave everything exactly as it was or better. That way you can relax knowing your pets are well taken care of, and you have nothing to worry about when you return.
About: I’ve dog-sat (and house-sat) for friends for a while, and nothing brings me more joy than seeing happy dogs! I love taking them for long walks or runs, spending the day playing with them, and of course giving them plenty of hugs and pets! ❤️🐶 I’m currently working full-time, so during the week I’m available to go on short walks during lunch and make sure your dog is fed and can use the bathroom. I can spend time with them in the evenings as well, and I’m also available for house sitting to keep them company while you’re away! I don’t have any pets of my own at home, but I’ve had plenty of experience caring for pets of friends and family members. I like taking them for walks through neighborhoods or parks where they can meet other dogs or people and see new places!
“? our little guy Max fell in love with Jackie the moment they met. She worked well with our short notice, and was the first stranger we’ve ever let watch Max while we were away and we are glad to have met her. Looking forward to using her as Maxis doggo sitter again!”
About: I love animals!! I’ve had 6 dogs growing up and now I have 2 hamsters, 1 betta fish and 1 dog! I’ve always loved animals and I always will! I’ll be there for your dog for anything you want me to be and for whatever they need or want as well. I’ve always loved animals I work 6am-3 on monday-Friday so anytime after 330 if you want to to stay the night I can do 6am-330? and anytime on Saturday-Sunday just contact me and I’ll dog sit! I’m free anytime this week I’m not available July 25-27 I feed your fur baby, and play with them with their favorite toys! Anything that satisfies you and your pet, I will make sure I do! ! I will always make sure your pet is safe, loved and well taken care of!

New Rome cat parents share their Rover experiences
This is my third time working with Lacey to watch over my cats. Cats can be pretty elusive when they want to be, so I know my cats are well cared for and comfortable when I see the daily pictures. It gives me such peace of mind when I’m away. Thank you Lacey!
Rebecca is WONDERFUL! She took care of our two cats while we were traveling recently and she really put our minds at ease. She stopped by to meet the cats before our trip so I could go through all the things with her. I highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future. Thank you, Rebecca!
