“Samantha did a great job checking in on our cat, Louie. On a previous vacation, he came to a cat with a UTI because the person we hired (not through Rover.com) did not clean his box properly. Samantha kept us up to date on how Louie was doing and kept his boxes clean. We came home from vacation to a happy and healthy cat. I will definitely use Samantha again!”

About: I love animals of all kinds! At home, I have one dog, Stryker, one cat, Kimber, and two pet rats, Top and Henry. I have also previously had an aquarium with some tetra fish :) I am currently studying zoology, so I am always around animals of all shapes and sizes! From my schooling and previous work, I have experience with puppies, adult and senior dogs, small birds, cats, small mammals (ferrets, rats, mice, guinea pigs, hamsters and rabbits), goats, chicken, reptile, and some fish and amphibian experience. I also have experience with pets who have strict diets, medication, take live food, and other dietary issues. I am a full time student at Otterbein University, with a part time job on campus. I am available on weekends and most week nights. I am flexible and can work with you, so that we can find the perfect schedule for your furry friend! I am a reliable, responsible and respectful individual. My mission is to make your pet feel as loved by me as they do by you, while respecting your space, your rules and most importantly your pet! I also keep with me a pet emergency kit should any accidents happen!

“I have not only got the pleasure of watching Taleasa handle her own dogs but also gotten the chance to watch her learn even more as well. I run a Service Dog Training Organization and work with her quite often. She is always looking out for the best interest of her dogs and how to better herself. You will most definitely be pleased with any service she provides for you.”

About: I’ve been taking off friends cats dogs birds. Since I can’t have my own pets due to husband allergies I surround myself helping care for my friends pets when at work or on vacation I work 7-4p but have flexibility to come and go as need for potty breaks. Being an empty nester I have ample opportunity to walk and play with your fur babies. I prefer to care for your family let in their home so they feel safe and comfortable. I am open to taking them to parks and. Neighborhood walks or even the local dog park.

18. Jaclyn L.
About: I have two cats so I understand the finicky felines! I don’t have any dogs currently, but I grew up with dogs and love to spend as much time around them as I can. Walks, play time, snuggles, or training, I’m up for all of it! I work mornings full time, but I have some time during my weekend (Tuesday and Wednesday) as well as normal weekends to help care for your pets. My cats don’t want me bringing any outside animals home, but I would love to visit your pet and give them some TLC. I have taken care of friends/neighbors pets and am always careful in their homes. I will be respectful of your privacy and property.
