“Anna took wonderful care of our dog and cat while we were away for several days. This was our first time using drop-in over boarding and we couldn’t be happier with the level of care that our pets received. Upon receiving our first detailed update along with the pictures, we knew that we made the best decision for our pets. Thank you Anna for taking such great care of Cash and Miles.”

“Was very friendly and met all my expectations. This was a last minute booking and she was available on a holiday weekend. She was there for both my dogs when we couldn’t be! 5 stars!”

About: Hello! My name is Megan and I am a 25 year old nursing student. I plan to graduate in December 2024 and already have an RN position lined up at my current employer, Deaconess!I signed up for Rover because I grew up around animals and have always been a dog lover. I have two dogs of my own! Milly is a 7 year old chocolate lab mix. Don’t let her age fool you, she is a ball of energy!! I also have a 1 year old miniature dachshund named Chip! My fiance and I like to say that he keeps Milly young. They are best friends! Some of our favorite things to do together are to go on car rides and walk the USI/Burdette trail when the weather is nice! I love working for Rover and I figured why not help those who don’t have the time to take their furry friends themselves! I would love to be that helping hand for you! I am very flexible, so contact me and we can get something figured out to make you and your furry friend’s life easier! I am currently in school full time, but I am in my last semester of nursing school. My hours are very flexible. I also work 12 hours a week at Deaconess as a Patient Care Technician. I make my own schedule there, so I can work around what you need! I do not have a fenced in backyard. However, I do have multiple leads to tie outside that would allow your friend to run free with my supervision. My lab, Milly, uses her lead almost daily for exercise. Both of my animals are very friendly! I also have an area for them to be crated, if needed.

About: I've taken care of animals since I was 10 years old. Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets while they were away. I am going to school to be a Vet Technician and hopefully one day own my own clinic. I do have a large dog, so I have plenty of experience dealing with them. I have worked at a vet clinic so I do know signs of stress and can also give mediation as needed. I am minoring in Animal Behavior so if you need some help, I will do what I can! I am currently working 40 hours a week. Housesitting is not an available at the moment but if you do not wish for me to stay the night at your home please make sure that you select drop in visits instead of boarding if you are wishing for your animal to stay in your home. I give treats! (Only if It's okay with you of course) I love praising dogs and giving them all the love I can. Inside of my home, my dogs are super friendly! So, prepare for your puppy to make new friends! I absolutely adore having new friends for my puppy! He loves it when friends come to stay the night and have sleepovers. On summer days, we break out our little pool for them to play with frozen pet friendly popsicles. In the winter, we do warm soups, that are pet friendly. And during holidays we do pet friendly, baked goods. Pet care is always going to be a part of my daily routine due to the amount of animals that we have. Drop in visits are little bit more difficult due to my hours at work. Typically I stop by once in the morning, once during my lunch, and once at night before I go home. I cannot provide an exact time due to my work hours fluctuating. I have large fenced backyard. I have one large fur baby, and five fluffy cats to keep your fur baby company. we all enjoy sitting outside in the screened and patio watching the fish in the Koi pond. Due to the amount of sleepovers, we have plenty of dog beds! We have a very strict routine when it comes to food, food allergies are a very real thing among cats and dogs! All animals get fed in separate rooms, and the food gets put up once they are done. We have fostered a numerous amount of animals, so this house has seen plenty of paw traffic. Since I have experience working in Vet clinic, once an animal leaves, the home, we do a deep sterilization. Common chemical solution that we use is odoban to sterilize floors and carpets. We take all blankets and bedding and put it through a sterilization cycle in the wash. Everything gets wiped down with disinfectant wipes.

About: I've been an animal lover since I can remember. Always taking in the strays. I am a registered nurse but my true love is taking care of animals. I have never met a dog that hasn't like me. I have owned dogs and cats but currently do not due to previously working full time and being a single mother. Im ready to stay home with my kids while earning money doing something I love. I am home everyday most of the day. I am a stay at home mom. I have three kids. Only time not home is running errands. I have a large yard outside of town with a lot space. my kids love playing with animals and taking them on walks. Active family.

14. Kami C.
About: I love to play & am not afraid of getting scratched or bitten! I think play is imperative for the mental health & happiness of your pet! My schedule is free and open to any arrangements. I would absolutely love to be booked & busy! I’m looking forward to hearing from you! I don’t have kids or anyone in my home that would affect the wellbeing or safety of your pets! I’m very cautious when it comes to animals, as they are super important to me!
15. Aysha B.
About: I’ve taken care of pets for as long as I can remember! Growing up my family and I had many dogs from large Saint Bernard’s to as small as Chihuahuas. As well as other animals. (Cats, Horses, Goats, Chickens etc) I am always ready to give your pets the love, care and patience they need during our walks. I also have years of experience dog sitting. I currently work part-time as well as dedicate time during each week to do volunteer work. This allows me to be flexible with my obligations and responsibilities so I am to be a dog walker as well. Because my schedule is a bit more flexible, I am able to dog sit in homes and give more attention to your pets, I also take time to play and get their energy out when needed!
16. Holly M.
“Omgosh I can not say enough good things about Holly. Not only is she punctual and easily available, she has the animals best interest at heart. My Heidi girl was from a shelter and was extremely timid. I simply could not put her in a busy doggy daycare and I found Holly and I'm forever grateful for her!!!! Heidi was shy at first, but Holly and her extreme patience for Heidi persisted and she went to Holly's home 3x a week for doggy daycare. Heidi gets so excited on her Holly Days😁 She wags her tail and jumps right up in the car. Heidi is no longer shy and we can have family and friends over and she is social. You won't be disappointed in hiring Holly. Simply Amazing”
17. Angie F.
“Angie is wonderful, she spent the night with my 2 dogs for 5 nights when I needed to leave town for an emergency. She stayed and kept them very happy, while I didn't have to worry. I was very happy with her communication, as she sent pictures and video throughout my entire trip. When I got home, I even noticed she took her time to even sweep and mop my wood floors as they were covered with hair when I left. I will definitely use her again. Very kind, outgoing, fun lady. I enjoy her.”
18. Olivia S.
“Olivia is an exceptionally responsible person and one of the few people I trust with my pug. She is conscientious, caring, and kind. All things you’d want when looking for someone to care for your best friend.”
19. Nicole B.
About: I have had dogs nearly my entire life of all different breeds and ages. I have taken care of dogs post surgery or with special needs and requirements. I currently work midnights and have flexible hours during the day once the kids go to school or daycare. I need to get a bit more active anyway, so I am very open to taking your pups on some walks or stopping by to play with them! My dogs are welcome anywhere in my house including in bed with me and on the couch. I have an underground fence for the dogs to be able to go outside without being on a leash. I currently will not be doing petsitting at my house though due to having a toddler wandering around.
20. Kristal S.
“My pack of 4 dogs and 2 cats can be a handful but Kristal took care of all my pets for 2 weeks without any problems. She even took the dogs on walks to their favorite place and cleaned my house better than it was when I left!”
