About: I've worked at Tendercare Animal Hospital for 4 years as kennel lead. Taking care of the dogs and cats in boarding. Making sure they are well taken care of while you're away! I work at Tendercare Animal Hospital in Morton i have a flexible schedule and can work with you for your needs. I do work 30 hours a week but hoping to make this a job for me. I have a vehicle for transportation as well as 4 years hands on experience at work. I can give medications as well and feeding and taking out for potty.
About: I have been around animals my whole life, and I have done dog and cat sitting a few times over the years for neighbors or friends. I’ve had cats and dogs in my home since 2014, and I am very comfortable around both. I currently have a full time job; I work primarily in the mornings with evening shifts thrown in here and there. I don’t do much outside of that, so I am pretty available otherwise. I want to keep all pets feeling comfortable, following their routines/schedule, and keeping them company (within their boundaries). I no longer live with my cats and miss them greatly, so I will make sure they receive extra attention, pets, and playtime (within their boundaries).
“Audra did a fantastic job! She sent us updates and was very communicative which we loved! We definitely recommend her!”
“Lucy was awesome! My first time asking her to sit for my two dogs for an extended period of time. She was super responsive, sending me daily updates and pictures and she followed my dogs needs and wants exactly as I asked. She was also very respectful of my home! 10/10 would absolutely ask her to sit for my dogs again.”
“Kara did a great job house sitting and watching our dogs while on vacation. The pups were well loved while we were gone. Will definitely rebook!”
“Jam is such a lovely human. Our dog Spike adores her and frankly doesn't want her to leave after she dogsits. We feel at ease leaving our dog in her hands. I would recommend her to everyone with an animal. We are so happy to find someone locally like her.”
About: I love dogs and want to adopt all of them! I had a Boston Terrier who was my little shadow. Since I don't have the time to adopt a new dog, I figured pet sitting would be a great way to fill the spaces left that only dogs know how to fill. I work as a nurse at the hospital M-F 730-4. I can do drop in appointments before and after work, or could pet sit overnight. I have 2 indoor cats. I'm unsure of how they are with dogs but they get along with other cats well. If needed, I could keep the animals separated. At your home, I would follow whatever directions are given, offer some play time or snuggle time, and send updates about your pet.
“Best dogsitter I've had on Rover. Conscientious, communicative, and the dogs love him! Thanks, Brady!”
“Carly watched my cat Raspy for a long weekend trip. My cat can definitely be picky on who he likes and he loved Carly! She did a great job and will definitely be using her in the future to watch Raspy!”
“Danielle was an excellent dog-sitter! She arrived promptly, kept our sweet boy company for the visit and was respectful of his space and our home. Will DEFINITELY rehire!”
“Jesse was a pleasure to have here in my home with my critters, she walked them several times a day and sent me pictures of them. She cleaned house and even changed the sheets, she went way out of her way to make sure everything looked good for when I got home. This was my first time to have a house sitter and I will again. Pleasant experience!!”

About: Hi, I’m Sherman. I provide dependable walking and sitting services for both dogs and cats, with experience handling pets of all temperaments—including reactive dogs and shy or anxious cats. I focus on calm, consistent care tailored to each animal’s needs, whether it’s daily exercise, drop-in visits, or overnight stays. Pet owners can count on clear communication, punctuality, and a respectful, low-stress approach to in-home care. I’m currently on summer break and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pets plenty of time and attention throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, or evening visits, and I’m committed to providing consistent care I care for pets in their own home to keep them comfortable and stress-free. Services include feeding, walks, litter box cleaning, and playtime. I follow your routine closely and provide regular updates so you can feel confident while you’re away.
“Abby is amazing! She took great care of our pets while we e were gone for a week. I felt so much better leaving them knowing she was here with them while we were away. She is so kind. Our dog even broke a door latch stopper thing we use to keep her out of the basement where the litter boxes and cat food is and Abby replaced it for us. We appreciate everything she did for us and our babies. We will definitely be using her again in the future.”

Sherman K.
“Sherman King is an excellent dog sitter. We have a reactive German Shepard who does not like anyone, making it very challenging to leave him. Sherman demonstrates a genuine love and compassion for animals, making them feel safe and comfortable. He is patient, responsible and has a great attention to detail. We have used him several times and are always very happy.”
