“It is such a relief to know that there’s someone I can totally rely on to take care of my cats while I’m gone. Kelsey did a great job with all instructions, communication, and keeping my babies safe.”

“Heidi was fantastic. My cats are pretty picky and they took to Heidi quickly. She also reached out immediately when there was a medical concern for one of my cats and offered to go back and check on her. She also checked in the next morning to see how my cat was doing, which was very sweet.”

About: Welcome! I’m happy to share with you that I’ve been caring for animals for over 30 years, including dogs, cats, reptiles, farm animals, plants, and homes. Throughout that time, I’ve had the privilege of caring for pets of all ages, personalities, and needs—from energetic puppies/kitties and large breed dogs to senior pets who require medication, extra patience, and specialized care. *Before we move forward; an important sidenote to share is that you might notice in my review section some people will call me by my nickname, which is Azraiel, I’ve had that name for so many years that I have to include it in this little section here so that everybody has clarity😇) Moving forward~ One thing that has always mattered to me is understanding that every animal communicates differently. Dogs tend to wear their hearts on their sleeves, while cats often express themselves in much quieter ways. Learning those differences has helped me recognize when they’re excited, anxious, playful, uncomfortable, or simply looking for reassurance. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, and mood because those small details often tell us exactly what our companions need. I believe our animals are family members who trust us with their lives, and I believe they deserve to be cared for with that same love, respect, and attentiveness that I would offer my own family. Every pet has their own personality, routines, and preferences, and I enjoy getting to know each one as an individual. I also know that consistency helps pets feel safe and secure, so I do my best to follow their normal routines as closely as possible—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medication, playtime, bedtime, or simply giving them quiet companionship when that’s what they need. I bring a calm, patient presence and allow animals to build trust naturally, never forcing interactions. Along with compassionate care, I believe professionalism is equally important. I value clear communication, thoughtful updates, and dependable service. I enjoy sending photos and messages so you can relax knowing how your companion is doing while you’re away. You can also count on me to arrive on time (usually a little early), carefully follow your instructions, and treat both your pets and your home with the utmost respect. I take pride in leaving your home clean, secure, and just as you left it. My goal is simple: when you leave, I want you to have complete peace of mind. And when you return home, I hope you’re greeted by companions who feel safe, loved, understood, and genuinely cared for. That’s the standard I hold myself to every time I care for someone’s home and the family members who share it. Lastly, I know what it’s like to place your trust in someone else to care for those you love most, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly! 😊❤️🔥 Thank you for reading my little note here, I appreciate your time and energy~ Looking forward to connecting with you and your pet fam! 🐶🤍😻 I have in the past few months opened my life up in a way I have never done before. I wanted to experience a lot more freedom and flexibility and so that’s exactly what I have:) Well, that doesn’t disclose an exact schedule, I do want to communicate that I’m happy to discuss whatever schedule may reveal itself. I’m sure we can work something out:) You’ll notice the similar theme in what I expressed here compared to the other sections, regarding safety, trust and environment. I don’t mean to sound repetitive, but considering that we’re talking about a person’s home and family, I think, touching on repeated themes of trust, integrity, and good stewardship are well worth a revisit: 🤓🥰 I know that when you invite someone into your home, you’re not just trusting them with your house—you’re trusting them with members of your family. That’s a responsibility I hold with great care, and I don’t take it lightly. My goal is to honor the routines you’ve created, provide calm and attentive companionship, communicate openly, and care for your home and your animals with genuine respect. I believe consistency helps pets feel safe, so I do my best to maintain their normal routines while also paying close attention to their comfort, behavior, and individual needs. Whether I’m staying overnight or stopping by for a visit, you can expect thoughtful updates, dependable communication, and a home that’s cared for with the same respect I give your companions. I strive to leave your home just as you left it—clean, secure, and well cared for. Above all, I hope you can leave with complete peace of mind, knowing your companions are safe, understood, and cared for by someone who truly sees them as family. My commitment is to provide faithful stewardship of both your home and the family members who share it.
About: From the moment I was born, I grew up surrounded by dogs and caring for them has always been second nature. Today, I combine decades of hands on experience with holistic healing tools to offer truly unique, heart centered pet care in Ashland and other parts of the Rogue Valley. I specialize in anxious dogs and dogs who cannot be left alone. I know how stressful it can be for both pets and their humans when separation anxiety is part of the picture. That is why I build my care around calm energy, predictable routines, and constant companionship. If I need to step out and you have approved it, I will bring your dog with me. Otherwise, I will never leave them alone for longer than three hours. I am also a Reiki Master and Emotion Code Practitioner which means I do not just care for pets physically, I also support their emotional and energetic well being. I often provide gentle Reiki sessions to dogs during my stays, helping them release anxiety and find balance. If your pup loves the outdoors, I am always thrilled to take them on hikes with your permission. Fresh air and exercise are some of my favorite ways to bond with dogs. I.

Every dog is unique, and I tailor care so they feel happy, comfortable, and secure. I am a business owner and work remotely, which means I am home all day and can give your pets plenty of attention. Whether I am caring for them at your house or at mine, they will enjoy constant companionship filled with love, playtime, and calm energy. Whether your pup is in my home or yours, they will enjoy both outdoor time and quiet time indoors. I live one block from a dog park (Colver Dog Park) with separate areas for large and small dogs, which is a wonderful option for pups who like to socialize or run. If your pet prefers a quieter routine, we will enjoy walks around the neighborhood, indoor play, energy healing sessions, and relaxed time together inside. My focus is always on creating a safe, calm, and predictable environment so pets feel secure. Your pup is my priority. I give them the same love and attention I would my own, so they feel loved and safe while you are away.

About: I have grown up with a variety of animals, thus providing me with a wealth of experience. I grew up with a small and a medium dog, though frequently would look after larger and higher energy dogs for family, friends, and other folks in my community. I love cats and have one of my own! I have experience with medication administration for special needs animals or animals with health concerns and would be happy to assist your pet with these things so you can feel comfortable leaving home without worry for their wellbeing! I’ve worked with young pets and older pets alike! Minimal barriers here! I’d love to support you and your pet :) I do work a full time job at the moment, though am flexible in the late afternoon and evening! I am also available saturday afternoons, and all day sundays, and mondays for convenient weekend trips. Happy to work with you and your schedule to make sure your pets are treated like family! I am happy to provide care for your pets in your home, and would love to support with housework if needed!

I want you to feel calm and safe knowing how loved your animal is with me!

About: Hi! I’m Laura, and I would love to care for your furry family members while you’re away. Animals have always held a special place in my heart. I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, getting to know their personalities, and making them feel safe, loved, and at home. Whether your dog loves long walks and adventures or prefers cuddles and a cozy place to nap, I do my best to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I work primarily from home, which allows me to spend a lot of time with the pets in my care. I also have a small postpartum care business and occasionally visit clients, but those visits are typically short. I am rarely away from home for more than 3 hours at a time, so your pet will receive plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day. Dogs in my care enjoy daily walks, park visits, playtime, and lots of affection. Whenever possible, they come along with me on pet-friendly errands and outings, becoming part of my daily routine rather than simply being boarded. Many of my days revolve around the pets I’m caring for, and I genuinely enjoy having them by my side. I accept only one family’s pet at a time so that each pet receives plenty of individualized attention, affection, and companionship. My goal is for your pet to feel relaxed, happy, and loved while you’re away. I share my home with my sweet Maltese, Bella. She is small, friendly, and used to being around other dogs. If you are interested in house sitting, I would need to bring Bella with me, provided your pet is comfortable with other dogs and you are comfortable with the arrangement. Otherwise, I am happy to welcome your pet into my home where they can enjoy a safe, loving environment with lots of attention and care. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so I provide regular updates, photos and videos for peace of mind. There is nothing better than seeing a pet settle in, trust me, and start feeling completely at home. I treat every animal as if they were my own and would be honored to care for yours. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I work primarily from home, which allows me to spend most of my day with the pets in my care. I also run a small postpartum care business and occasionally visit clients, but those visits are typically short, and I am rarely away from home for more than 3 hours at a time. My days are structured around making sure the animals in my care receive plenty of attention, exercise, companionship, and affection. Dogs enjoy regular potty breaks, daily walks, park visits, playtime, and lots of one-on-one interaction throughout the day. Whenever appropriate, they may also join me on pet-friendly errands and outings. In the evenings, I enjoy relaxing at home, which means plenty of cuddle time and companionship for pets who enjoy being close to their people. Because I intentionally keep the number of pets I care for limited, I am able to give each animal individualized attention and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so it doesn’t feel like a job—it feels like having additional furry family members in my home. I strive to make pets feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible, whether they are staying in my home or I am caring for them in yours. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and personality so I can provide care that feels familiar and consistent. In my home, pets receive plenty of supervision, affection, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I have a securely fenced yard for potty breaks and outdoor time, and dogs enjoy daily walks, park visits, playtime, and lots of opportunities to relax and feel at home. My small Maltese, Bella, is friendly and enjoys the company of other dogs. If I am caring for your pet in your home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and bedtime routines. My goal is to keep their environment as stress-free and familiar as possible while you’re away. I provide regular updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind knowing they are safe, happy, and well cared for. Every pet receives lots of love, attention, and individualized care while they are with me.
About: I've had lots of experience especially with small dogs. I've been a foster parent for the humane society and ended up adopting a dog that I fostered. However, he recently passed so there are no dogs in my home at present. I may have a small dog in my home from time to time as I'm fostering again. I'm comfortable with senior dogs, too. My home is quiet and comfortable. I'm currently working very part-time, so I will have time to care for your treasured dog. I'm available weekends, too. I'm out of cell range during the day on some Thursdays. So if you try to contact me on a Thursday, it will take several hours for me to get back to you. Otherwise, my response rate is exceptional. I have a fenced back yard with a small lawn. If you have me care for dogs in my home, I have crates they can use. Environment is quiet and tranquil.
About: Grew up w/ small dogs and cats! All have been my favorite.😫 From bottle feeding week-old kittens to park-day trips, administering medication and probiotics. Baths for the pups are no problem, too! I am free twice a day at minimum for daily drops ins with optional extended bonding and play time, as well as weekend house sitting where your fur baby will be attended to for the remainder of the night! 🐾🐈🫶🏼 I use a baby gate as a “keep-out” tool if needed to be utilized in a specific area of your home. A provided crate for dogs that are destructive when left alone or in general would be appreciated!
“This was our first time leaving the dogs with someone we didn't know and we felt absolutely comfortable and she took such good care of them we started with a drop in visit for a day and when we got home they were happy 😊”


About: Family and friends tell me that I have a special affinity for animals. Dogs have always been in my life. They’ve protected me, grown up and matured with me, and made me a better human being. I’m the person the horse no one else can catch comes to. I love my 5 goats and sometimes take them for walks with Archer, my super people amd dog friendly 9 month-old shepherd mix. I know how to maintain control while also staying calm, patient, and consistent, even in stressful situations. I also look for the fun side of life. It’s important to play. Since I work from home, I happily spend my free time with furry friends of all kinds, both mine and yours. I work from home with a very flexible schedule. That means that my days are often dictated by what my (and your dog) want to do. I live on a couple acres with 5 goats , chickens, a pup and a cat. The goats and chickens are separated from the human/dog yard with a 5' fence. The dog yard is large and grassy. Im home most days and am able to spend quality time with the animals. My dog, Archer is so happy to have guests over and will be so pleased to entertain your pet.
“Louis was very professional and incredibly easy to work with. Our cats and tortoise were well cared for. Louis communicated clearly with us while we were gone, and even caught an error I made in the booking times. He obviously has an eye for detail and cares about the pets he watches. Thank you, Louis! We will definitely reach out again to book in the future!”

“Emma was the bright candle on my Thanksgiving and birthday week! I became suddenly ill and had to find help fast! Emma was available and worked with me at the last minute to secure care for my 4 cats while I recovered. She is very sweet with my kitties as they are very shy. Great job Emma!”

About: EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE WITH SENIOR AND SPECIAL NEEDS ANIMALS. Having had the privilege of caring for many of our own geriatric pets, I have a special interest in the needs of our “golden oldies.” I have years of experience in animal welfare, fostering and rescue. In addition to sharing my life with my own pets, I am a certified Wildlife Rehabber (CA) and am currently volunteering with Jackson County’s Friends of the Animal Shelter organization. I am a freelance graphic designer. Having my own business allows me the flexibility needed to have time to pursue my love of caring for animals. I understand the responsibility that comes with looking after your pet. I am extremely experienced and hyper-responsible. Your pets safety and wellbeing is my priority.
“Sandra got our why cat to come out to play! Not always possible. Thank you, Sabra, for your care of Aziraphale, being consistent each day and keeping us posted with photos! Will be on touch again next time we need someone to drop on in while we're away!”

About: Hi I’m Victoria! I consider myself an animal lover who’s grown up around cats, dogs, guinea pigs, bunnies, fish, lizards, and more! I currently have one cat, Theo, who I consider my baby. I'm the go to person among friends and family for pet care, and I have a special love for senior pets, enjoying lounging around with them all day. Whether it's walks, treats, baths, or simply keeping them company, I find joy in creating a comfy environment for these furry buddies, seeing their happiness in tail wags and purrs. I am currently unemployed but starting nursing school in the fall, so my schedule is flexible and open! I currently have open availability, as I am not working. I am open minded and up for any challenge! Please reach out to me if you have any questions. :) I am familiar with creating a safe and fun space for your fur babies to enjoy. They will be pampered and cared for as if they were my own.
About: I have been involved with dog rescues throughout my entire life. I know how to work with dogs with big personalities and those that are a bit shy, as well. I have a lot of patience and understanding when it comes to dogs with challenging pasts and I am happy to help them work through any trust issues at their own pace. I have owned dogs for as long as I can remember and I am always the friend go volunteer to walk other people's dogs when they need help. I know the value of exercise and enrichment for dogs and I know how to make those connections with them. I am experienced in bathing, walking, playing with and feeding dogs of all sizes and breeds. Over the summer I have completely open availability and any consistency would be appreciated as I am getting married this summer and need the funds for my wedding. I can ensure that the dogs are fed, have plenty of water, have had play time and have gone on walks. I will make sure the dog gets a lot of interaction time.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
