About: I’ve been caring for pets and pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family since I was young. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love spending time with them. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, including larger breeds such as Pit Bulls, XL American Bullies, and Cane Corsos. I’m comfortable handling strong, high-energy dogs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and safety. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or just lots of attention and affection, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I promise to be dependable, responsible, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I am currently a college student home for the summer and do not have another job, which allows me to offer a very flexible schedule. I am available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and boarding. If your pet is staying with me, I will be home for most of the day aside from occasional errands or appointments. This allows me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, exercise, and companionship to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I live in a house with a yard and access to a dog park within my neighborhood, providing plenty of opportunities for exercise, play, and enrichment. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, walking, and care instructions provided by owners and will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your pet’s stay. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or senior, I will provide attentive care tailored to their individual needs.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 5 years now, from dogs to frogs! Some of my own and some from others I give each animal the love and care that they deserve. I love being outdoors in any climate whether that be hiking, jogging, or simply sitting in a field. I’d be more than happy to burn some energy with your fur baby! I work part time during the night which leaves lots of free time during the mornings to walk, feed, and check in on your pets. I occasionally have classes during the week, so I’ll already be up bright and early! I will provide your pets with loving attention, frequent walks and bathroom breaks, even playtime. I am sure to create a safe environment for your fur babies, if that means a mini play date or introduction session before sitting I am down for it all. I will stay loyal to the given instructions with proper feeding times and administer medication if/when needed.

Michaela took wonderful care of our pups while we were on our vacation. She even sent pictures and updates while we were away. I will definitely be using her services again soon and highly recommend her to anyone. This is my first time using Rover and I was extremely nervous about a “stranger”. I’m so blessed to have found Michaela!

About: I have been around animals my whole life and I love them! I have a 4 year old kitty named Bunny and she is everything to me. My best friend has a mini Australian shepherd that is very friendly and I love being around him. I also have watched my brother and sister in law’s dogs for 2 years now. They ranged from having 4-8 dogs at different points and I would love to go stay with them, feed them, and get to play with their fluffy selves! I am working limited hours at this time, so I am available weekdays 8 a.m.- 2 p.m. and 5:45 p.m.- 9 p.m., and also weekends any time! I will monitor the animals needs and be there in any way I am needed. I will take them outside as much as directed, feed them, make sure they have water, and love on them!

About: I’ve grown up with animals! I’ve always had a cat to take care of! I got my first kitten when I was around 5 years old! ever since I’ve had an amazing connection with all animals but especially cats more than anything. I have watched over dogs many of times. I can handle a big dog but I am mainly used to small/medium dogs ahah:) I’ve currently have dealt with puppies and them being sick! I have learned many new things along the way! I am so excited to learn more things about animals as I watch over them. I have only ever pet sit once through rover, but I can assure you I have plenty of experience and knowledge when it comes to animals! Your dog/cat would be so lucky to have me watch over them:) I currently work a full time job, I usually work 10-4 Tuesday-Saturday I am currently in school working on getting closer to being a veterinarian assistant:)) my schooling is completely online though so I can bring it wherever I go. I am majoring in Animal Science! At my house I have a big back yard so the dogs go out can can play with lots of land and room to run and use the restroom! we no longer cage our 2 dogs, we also have gotten chickens and ducks:)) so please beware if you send your dog to my house to let me know before hand how your dog is with other animals and around farm animals! your dog could sleep inside with the other doggies or inside the sunroom! when I am gone! I tend to walk my dogs daily! I also have 2 kittens I am leash training so if your cat likes to go on walks I can work with that too!

About: I love animals. I have lots of cat experience and a bit less dog experience. I love to pet sit for my friends when they go out of town and I enjoy walking dogs for my daily exercise. My favorite thing to do these days is to stay home and watch movies with my cat or my parents’ 3-legged dog. I’m very attentive to the needs of animals to include their safety, cleanliness and health. I’m a nurse and I work 12 hour shifts. This means my schedule gives me more days off during the week when compared to a 9-5 job, but my schedule is not the same each week. If we schedule pet sitting in advance, this is what I would prefer. Last minute appointments would be fine too if I am off work for the day. I’m a bit of a night owl so weird hours are fine too. I have a fenced back yard and have hosted puppies before that I was fostering for a local rescue. I have a cat so dog friendly cats are preferred if you want them to stay over at my place. I can also stay at your place if preferred. I have a car

About: I have raised several puppies successfully and have helped a family member with caring for large litters of Great Danes. We have had senior dogs that have required medication administration, including insulin. I also volunteer at the heart Humane Society in Georgia taken care of the cats and the dogs that are waiting to be placed into a forever home. I currently work par-time so I have plenty of time for pet care. I do have other family in my home that can care for my pets if I am needed for over nights. I love caring for pets it makes me feel rewarded when pets respond positively with me. I have 2 dogs in my home both weigh approx. 50 pounds. Our yard is fenced in so they go in and out. I take them on walks and hikes to nearby waterfalls. They are fed twice a day, just dry food once and with shredded chicken the second time. I also bath them and trim their nails and brush their teeth. I would be happy to assist where I can with your pets routines.
