Holly makes taking a long weekend or vacation so stress-free knowing she is taking care of our beloved pets! Not only is she prompt, communicative, and very obviously caring, she also does a wonderful job of writing up a nice summary after each visit & sends the sweetest photos. We can’t thank Holly enough for all that she does for our kitties and will continue to use her services as needed!

Rhianna was beyond amazing at taking care of my cat Lucille and my home while I was away. She sent detailed updates daily and plenty of photos showing what all they got up to each day, and constantly went above my expectations. The care she showed for my pet was clear, and I couldn't appreciate her more!

Cassandra was WONDERFUL! My cats were happy when I got home, but I could tell that they were lovingly cared for. Cassandra sent me pictures every day and messaged me to see if there was anything else that she could do for me. The house was immaculate when I came home and the sheets were washed. I would HIGHLY recommend this lovely caring young lady!

Tori is such a delight. She eased our mind about our one problem child pup that likes to chew couches while we’re gone. She was fantastic and very timely on showing up as well as keeping us updated on what was going on. She sent lots of pics of all the kids and we felt very comfortable with her being in our home while we were gone. We will definitely use her again next month when we go out of state for a few days. Highly recommend.

About: Excel in animal care with over 15 years experience working with a variety of species from exotic fish, rodents, dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, wildlife and livestock. 3 years experience as a Vet Tech, 10 years as a ranch hand and 3 years as a wildlife rehabber. All while caring for my own personal pets like rabbits, fish, dogs, cats and horses. I am passionate about animals and strive to provide the upmost care. I am knowledgeable on pet products, medications, vaccines and can give nutritional advice. I also have an interest in training and behavior and am strong advocate for positive reinforcement training. During the week I can provide enrichment activities after 4PM but on the weekends I can do that more than once a day and also provide relaxation time. I live in a no pet household with a small unfenced yard but in a very animal friendly neighborhood next to dog parks and trails.

About: I grew up with dogs, birds, and fish. That does not mean I have not cared for other animals. I spent a lot of time at a family members farm growing up, so I also cared for cats, newborn and adult cows, chickens, goats, etc. I have always had a love for animals/pets and am well rounded in that area. I have been pet sitting for various families over the years and have really gained experience by caring for pets of all ages. I can easily deal with puppy messes and senior dog needs. I have an unmeasurable amount of love for animals, and I figured I could put that love to use and start offering services on Rover. I am currently a college student home for summer who works part time. My schedule varies week to week but I am open to any requests! I will care for pets exactly as the owner requests. Your pets happiness is my #1 priority so I will make sure they are well fed, exercised, and happy. All pets are different, and body language is a huge part of getting to know new animals. Luckily I am very knowledgeable about animal body language. I will not overstep your pets boundaries and will let them become comfortable with me first. That way they feel safe and secure. I treat all animals as if they were my own and since I am an animal lover, I form a strong bond with pets.

About: I have been a pet owner my entire life and have also enjoyed pet sitting for friends. I have a large farm with plenty of room for pups to run as well as 2 pups and 3 kids to play with. I firmly believe dogs are family and promise to treat your dog the same way. My schedule is very flexible and I am more than willing to work with families to find a schedule that works for everyone. I live on a 120 acre farm with 3 kids, two dogs, and three cats. My kids adore dogs big and small. There is always someone around and available to give pets all the extra love they need. Both of my dogs are submissive and have never shown any signs of aggression with other dogs. I currently work a flexible part time schedule, so I am often available to take new clients. I am always willing to work with clients to make a plan that works for everyone. The pets in my home are treated like family. My schedule is flexible and my daughters are homeschooled, so there is always someone available to love and play with your pup.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life. Once I was about 11, I started pet sitting for family members and family friends. That would include walking, bathing, and any litter needs for the cats. I currently have two pups, both rescues and a very large cat. I can walk any sized dog or care for any kind of kitty. I can accommodate the needs of puppies, senior dogs or any type of cat. I know all animals have special personalities, but I’m here to meet the needs of any pet. Pet care is my priority! As long as I have an opening, I can make time for anything. I have reliable transportation and can work with any schedules that meet the pet owners requirements and needs. I do not provide services of bringing animals to my home because I do already have several pets of my own. I can make time on my schedule any day of the week to provide services at the pet owners house. I’ll provide care at the customers home (walking, bathing etc.) and I have a larger car so I can drive dogs to the vet in case of any emergency situations while the pet owner is away. Just so there is peace of mind.

About: I have had many pets that lived well past their life expectancy just taking the very best care of them possible. From feeding, bathing, teeth cleaning and regular exercise. This produces a happy and well rounded family member! I am retired with a small part time job. I am available most weekends. Your pet would be treated as though they were mine. Mine are very loved. I am very adamant about keeping pets safe on leashes and have a great walking area. Dogs are curious kids and can dart after anything that catches their interest. I have 2 dogs and a little cat.

About: I've cared for cats and dogs of all ages. Any pet in my home lives a long, full, and happy life. I just love animals. I'm a High-School Senior (Cyber School), so my routine goes around that and work. I care for my pets first thing in the morning and last thing at night! They always are a first priority. My animals lounge around my home anymore, lol. When I had a dog he got daily walks and outside time multiple times a day! He was one happy camper.

Ava has been an excellent pet sitter! We have 1 dog and 2 cats. We had a vacation when our puppy was still small and Ava stayed in our home to provide the necessary level of care for our new family member! She even reinforced our goals for puppy training! Ava has also helped us with letting our dog out on long work days, and has been reliable even on short notice. We love Ava and highly recommend her!

Diana takes care of her dogs just like she cares for her houseguests (me), excellently. Her dogs are well behaved and one would not even know the dogs are in her house yet she makes sure the two dogs are fed and walked daily by her without interruption. I am not a pet owner, yet I marvel at how she makes all this happen seamlessly. She is mindful of their health and makes sure they see a veterinarian. I would definitely recommend Diana to care for any doggy!
