About: I will show your animal the General love and care as I give my own! I love dogs and cats and would love to care for them when you’re unable to! I love giving lovings and napping with the animals they love cuddling in the bed together! I work full time Monday through Friday typically but am very willing to work around those hours to care for your loves! I typically am free in the evenings and can wake up earlier to take care of your babies if needed before work. I treat everyone’s home with respect. I know it is sometimes uneasy trusting someone new as some people have no respect for others and their belongings rest assured with me your house will be in the same condition you left it in!

About: Hi, I’m Emma Johnson, and I’m here to give your pets the same love and care I give my own. My husband and I are both animal lovers, and he often helps me with visits—especially when extra hands are helpful, like with larger dogs or farm animals. We work as a team to ensure your pet receives safe, attentive, and loving care. I’ve been caring for animals since I was 8 years old, and I now have over 10 years of personal and professional experience with a wide variety of pets. I hold both the Rover 101 badge and a Verified Enhanced Background Check badge, so you can feel confident that your pet is in capable, trustworthy hands. I specialize in cats, dogs, rabbits, and farm animals, including goats, donkeys, chickens, and ducks. I grew up caring for animals on a family friend’s farm while they were away, and I’ve also worked at a pet resort at a veterinary clinic. In high school, I earned the Gold CGSP award for excellence in service and professional manners. I provide drop-in visits only, which is perfect for pets who are most comfortable in their own home. I will follow all your instructions closely to maintain your pet’s routine and reinforce any training you’ve put in place. I’m happy to provide exercise, playtime, brushing, and even bathing during visits—just let me know what your pet needs! I am committed to punctuality and reliability. I do everything I can to arrive on time or even early, unless something unavoidable like traffic or an accident occurs. Availability: • As a teacher, I am currently available for weekend and holiday visits only. • I do not offer late-night services; my latest visit time is 7:00 PM. • My schedule is very flexible on weekends, and I’m happy to work with you to find the best plan for your pet. Whether your pet needs playtime, snuggles, or just a calm, familiar routine, I’m here to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Feel free to message me with any questions—I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! As a teacher, I am currently available for weekend and certain holiday visits only. I use my free time to care for animals, which I truly enjoy. I only offer drop-in visits at the pet’s home, where they are most comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I follow all care instructions closely to maintain consistency and reduce stress for your pet. I respect your home and your pet’s space, and I always aim to create a calm, safe, and positive environment during each visit. I also make sure to secure doors, gates, and any areas you’ve noted for safety. Trust is very important to me, and I treat every pet and home with the same care I give my own.

Daisy has taken care of our fur babies for us on two different vacations. It is so nice to be able to leave them in our home and have them not be stressed and exhausted from boarding. Daisy does a great job!

About: Hi, I’m Ashley! With over 10 years of experience caring for pets, I’ve had the joy of working with dogs, cats, and everything in between. From playful puppies and curious kittens to senior pets needing a little extra TLC, I treat every animal like they’re my own. I understand that each pet has a unique personality and routine, and I’m committed to providing consistent, compassionate care tailored to their needs. Whether it’s long walks, feeding, medication, litter box cleaning, or just quality companionship, I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. You can always count on me for clear communication, reliability, and plenty of photo updates. I know how much your pets mean to you—because mine mean the world to me too! I’m currently a stay at home, so my availability is pretty open! I’m happy to discuss dates and times privately. Please feel free to reach out! When I care for your pets in their home, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment that sticks as closely as possible to their regular routine.

Bobby did a fantastic job dropping in to take care of our two German Shepherds. We used him for 3 days total and he dropped in as requested. He came an extra time just to make sure they were well taken care of and were able to use the bathroom. We will be using Bobby going forward for all our needs as long as he is available and will have us. When he came to drop off the garage door opener, the two of them went sprinting for him. They were barking in a high playful pitch because they loved him so much. Highly recommend!!!

Eric was professional and punctual. I mentioned my puppy has separation anxiety, and he chose to spend extra time with him than I had booked him for. I 100% recommend Eric, and I will absolutely book him again in the future.

About: I’ve had pets since I was born and trained all of them, just simple commands. I love all animals and have pet sat for friends and family often! I’m currently a stay at home mom so I am free all weekdays and most weekends. I have no issues giving your pets the care and love they need. I can give each pet specific, catered care. My goal is to ensure your fur babies are emotionally and physically taken care of. From high energy, to low energy, I can adapt to almost any requirements.

About: I truly love animals, and it shows in the way I care for them. I don’t just “watch” pets, I bond with them. I’m patient and energetic enough to keep active ones happy and engaged. I pride myself on being dependable and keeping owners updated with messages and photos. I currently work full time from 8 to 4:30 PM. Once I am off work I focus my attention on your fur babies making sure they get the energy out of going on a walk! I do not keep pets at my house due to having 3 dogs of my own. In your own home I will keep their routine consistent as possible. I follow feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special instructions closely. I make sure pets feel secure in their familiar space while keeping everything tidy and respecting your home.

About: I have hands on veterinary assisting experience, strong understanding of animal behavior, and my ability to care for a wide range of species not just dogs and cats. I’m comfortable supporting pets with structure and routine. I have experience caring for neonate puppies who need consistency and extra monitoring, as well as senior pets who require patience, and gentle handling. I’m also confident handling large and powerful breeds. Pet care is already a central part of my daily life. I run an online freeze-dried raw pet treat business and spend most of my time working from home or actively caring for animals. At home, I spend a great deal of time with my own dogs through structured activities like long wooded walks, socialization, and desensitization work. I also work with clients who need support with whelping and early puppy care. I provide structured, calm care with safety as the priority. Dogs are supervised during free time and I believe in crate training as a positive tool for rest and security. Feeding is done separately to respect space, followed by quiet crate time after meals to help prevent bloat. Once rested, dogs return to supervised free time.

Cassandra was awesome dropping in for home visits with our two big and energetic dogs for a long weekend. We always have a little anxiety leaving them at home for more than a day, but Cassandra took such good care of them and kept us updated with pictures during each visit. We really appreciated the constant communication and will definitely choose Cassandra to take care of our dogs in the future.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals including dogs, puppies, cats, poultry, and horses. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, cleaning, exercise, socialization, and monitoring animal health and behavior. As someone who raises animals on a homestead, I understand the importance of patience, safety, routine, and compassionate care. I treat every animal like family and strive to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care. Since I homeschool on our homestead, I have a very flexible schedule and open availability throughout most of the week. I care for our own animals daily, so pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine. While I’m unfortunately unable to provide overnight stays in your home due to having small children, I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to provide loving daytime care, check-ins, walks, feeding, and companionship for your pets. Coming from a homestead lifestyle and caring for animals daily, I understand how important consistency, patience, and supervision are. I’m experienced with dogs, puppies, cats, poultry, and horses, and I’m comfortable handling different temperaments and energy levels. In a client’s home, I always respect the space, keep things clean, and provide updates and photos for peace of mind. In my home, safety comes first, with supervised interactions and a calm family environment.

About: I've been petsitting since I was 13. I have experience with multiple different dog breeds both high and low maintenance. I can bathe, walk, administrator medicine and more. I also have lot of experience with more skittish/shy dogs. I'm and auburn student home from college Dec. 13- Jan 10th. I'm happy to stay the night and house sit up until a week before Christmas (I can still pet sit just not house sit). I can do house checks every 3-8 hours. I might also have a part time job while I am home but I should still have a pretty open schedule. I can ensure pet safety by following client instructions, administering medications as directed, and providing regular exercise and playtime. On walks I carry pepper spray and an extra choke leash to ensure pets safety in case approached by another dog or animal.

About: I have been a pet owner since I was 14 years old. Family members have also allowed me to pet sit their fur babies with regular walks, feedings, and required medication needs. I have two senior dogs myself and understand the dynamics of the extra care and needs they require. I am currently seeking a career change for something that brings me joy, which is ofcourse fur babies. I am willing to discuss any clients times/days that work for both of our needs With effective communication of your pups needs I can provide a safe and happy environment while you are away. This can vary from food, medications, walks, temperament concerns, and etc.

Megan is the best Rover! I always feel great knowing she is taking care of my pups while I’m away! She is so amazing with our dogs! We have an older 75lb pit mix and a 35 lb frenchie, and she manages them so well even when we have special requests like medications! She communicates very well, and always sends the best pictures! I can’t recommend her enough!
