“Indiana was phenomenal to work with. Took excellent care of our cats, was super respectful of our home and helped take care of a few things here and there in our house. Was also very communicative and let us know what was happening with our pets. 10/10 she’ll be our go to pet sitter whenever we are in need and she should be your go to as well!”

“Darnell took such great care of Monroe. He was very communicative and kind to my girl. She has separation anxiety so I was stressed leaving her at first l, but Darnell eased that very quickly. Will definitely book with him again in the future. Thank you Darnell!”

“Best experience! She was amazing, patient, and caring! I will definitely book again, and recommend her to my friends! My cats had never been clipped, and they were skittish, but she helped calm them, and get the job done. No issues, they act as if nothing happened! Wonderful experience!”

“I traveled for a full week and needed someone I could trust to take care of Cat. I've booked Emily before and she is attentive, communicative, and overall a great sitter. Highly recommend!!!”

“Jessica has dropped by on my pupsters on two separate occasions, and I would trust her anytime I need some help. She always provides adorable updates and is communicative. The pups have a great time with her. I will book Jessica everytime if she's available!”

“Monique and family were great! Always on time as requested. They didn't just come to the house and feed our 5 dogs they actually took time with our dogs. Definitely recommend them to anybody!”

About: I've had pets my whole life from the biggest of dogs to cutest of cats. I'm a very active mom, and fitness lover that could always use a furry partner. 🐕🦺🐈 I'm currently working mornings 7am-3pm, so anytime before 6 am or after 4pm drop off works best for me. I have a back yard as well as 1 lovely cat that usually doesnt mind other cats or dogs being around. My home is clean warm and inviting to all animals. Hooray! As a mom pet care fits into my schedule perfectly. My kids have a lot of fun with all animals that come to our home. I currently moved into a smaller place but my 6 year old son and a young wild & free 3 year old son, who can't get enough of the running he gets to do during my sits.
About: Hi- I'm Rikki & Pearl is my adorable, furry shadow. Since delivering her eight puppies, I knew I had found my calling of caring for animals. I pamper animals with holistic care that leaves them feeling squeaky clean and Zen. I’m also dog CPR certified so if tails stop wagging, I’m the lifesaver ready to jump in with treats, belly rubs, and superpowers. I also have extensive experience in senior dog care, ensuring that older pups receive the extra love, attention, and specialized care they deserve. Our home, Pearl's Palace, is like an animal "spa" surrounded by a welcoming community of pet-loving neighbors. With round the clock attention and care, we hope you and your pets find our home as comfortable as we do. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have, Pearl makes a great secretary! From the moment your pup arrives, they’re welcomed like family. Mornings often start with a friendly sniff-and-greet, followed by some outdoor play or a stroll around the neighborhood to stretch those legs. If the weather’s nice, supervised pool time keeps things exciting (and doubles as a workout). Midday brings rest in a shaded spot or inside the home, with fresh water always available. Throughout the day, dogs enjoy a mix of play, cuddle breaks, and light grooming—nail checks, brushing, or a spritz of my handmade lavender-infused conditioner for relaxation and bug protection. Afternoon activities may include fetch, enrichment games, or lounging by the pool while soaking up the sun. Evening winds down with a final potty break, gentle pets, and plenty of praise before pick-up or bedtime, so your dog heads home happy, relaxed, and maybe just a little spoiled. I have a tall privacy fence and a Great Dane to keep your pets company. Walks are regular and so is meeting new dog friends. Instructions for in-home care are followed as specified below. *Now Available* LIVE feed to owners so you can talk to them and check in!
“Cassidy was wonderful. There were daily updates and the cutest pictures. Even added a last minute walk since my pups were feeling cooped up. She let me know if there were any problems and I came home to happy pups.”

“Grace sent us lovely updates and pictures of our cats each day which made being away much easier. The cats were well played with and barely seemed to notice when we returned 🤣.”

“Absolutely amazing and showed a lot of love for my 4-year old good boy. I definitely recommend reaching out to her before anyone else, as she is very caring and kind, and will make sure your pet is well taken care of. Thank you Shanelle!”
“Kayce did an excellent job of visiting with our 18 year old Spikey. He required additional care due to his age and Kayce did an outstanding job of performing the additional services. She is very thoughtful and kept us informed with daily updates and pictures. She did a great job. Thank You”

About: I’ve been in the veterinary field for 3 years and I’m going to school to be a technician! I love helping animals and their owners. I’m currently working full time but can come over during lunch breaks and play with your animals or even go for a walk or play fetch! I can stay at your house or do walks a few times and day as well as feeding and giving medication if needed. I like playing with animals and making sure they’re having as much fun as possible while you’re away!

About: Animals have been a massive part of my life for as long as I can remember, and growing up in a household with both dogs and cats taught me how to read their unique body language and personalities. Today, I am a proud pet parent to two wonderful cats of my own, so I know firsthand just how much your pets mean to you and the level of care they deserve. I have hands-on experience handling pets of all shapes, sizes, and ages, which includes raising a family dog from a puppy and training him to sit, as well as managing and pet-sitting two energetic 80-pound dogs simultaneously. I am also entirely comfortable with the less glamorous sides of pet care, as I am highly experienced in administering oral pills and various medications to both cats and dogs, maintaining strict routines, and handling unexpected bathroom accidents or cleanups calmly and thoroughly. I work full-time Monday through Friday, making my daytime availability perfect for early morning or evening walks, check-ins, and feeding routines. I am also available for overnight housesitting during the week, though this is typically best suited for independent adult animals who are comfortable being alone during standard work hours. My weekends are completely open and flexible for overnight care, extended daytime sitting, and drop-ins. Because young puppies require constant, round-the-clock supervision and undivided attention, I only accept puppy-sitting bookings strictly on Saturdays and Sundays to ensure your little one gets the dedicated care they need. Building a foundation of trust is my top priority when entering your home to care for your pets. For dogs, this means maintaining strict leash safety during walks, keeping a watchful eye for hazards, and following their established feeding and bathroom routines to minimize any anxiety. For cats, I prioritize a calm, respectful environment, giving them the space they need to feel secure while ensuring litter boxes are pristine and food is fresh. I treat your home with the utmost respect—keeping it clean, locking up securely, and handling unexpected messes or accidents quickly and thoroughly. Whether keeping a energetic dog safe on a walk or administering medication to a sensitive cat, I am committed to providing a secure, stress-free environment so you can have total peace of mind while you are away.
About: I have pets of my own and have been pet sitting for over four years. I would love the opportunity to come visit your dog during the day. From the tiniest little pup to the largest or oldest pup I love take care of them. I cant wait to meet your furry friends and take care of them like they are my own. I am currently working part time so some weekdays I will not be available until after 4. Most weekdays( when im not working)I will be available anytime during the day. I am available on weekends as well. I will always leash pets on walks and do my best to ensure their visits or walks are fun and safe for your fur babies.

“Lilliana was excellent and extremely professional. She was on time and went the extra mile to make sure our pets were taken care of. I will definitely be using her services again.”

Petersburg cat parents share their Rover experiences
Emily was fantastic! Her updates were thorough, thoughtful, and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away from our babies. She was attentive, punctual, and clearly cared about making sure they were happy and well cared for. It made such a difference knowing they were in such good hands. I would absolutely book with Emily again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.

I HIGHLY recommend booking with Emily, she was a god-sent! Emily quickly replied to my request; was very thorough and mindful when discussing Luna's needs; responded within a timely manner AND follows through with her "Personalized Pet Companionship" motto. Not only was this my first time using Rover, it was my first time leaving my fur-baby behind and Emily soothed my nerves and anxiety every step of the way. With every visit I received multiple photo updates and a full report of the visit- food & water intake, play time, cuddle time, the full works, etc. And when little things needed to be added to the visit or Luna's routine, Emily did not hesitate to provide. I would definitely rebook with Emily whenever a cat-sitter is needed again.

Best experience! She was amazing, patient, and caring! I will definitely book again, and recommend her to my friends! My cats had never been clipped, and they were skittish, but she helped calm them, and get the job done. No issues, they act as if nothing happened! Wonderful experience!
