About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats and hamsters for a couple of years first was my family dog, then my cat in college and roommate’s hamster I only work 2-3 days out of the week for only 2 hours and I am free weekends. Which gives me enough time to care for your pets and spend time with them. I can also care for smaller pets like fish or hamsters if needed. In my home,which is my dorm, I feed my cat twice a day and make sure his water bowl is always full and clean out his litter box at the beginning of each day. In case of a fire I grab my cat with his emergency bag and I have also helped my roommate get her hamster out during a fire drill. I always make sure to spend time playing with them as well. For clients I make sure to care for their pets as I would want anyone else to care for mine; providing the food as asked by the client and cleaning after the pet as asked which includes cleaning the litter box or going for walks and playing with the pets.

“Brinkley, Thank you so much for helping us out last minute with Duke and Wanda! You left us with no worries while we were away! Look forward to seeing you again soon! Thank you!”


“Lillie was great! She was communicative and punctual. She offered to do a meet and greet before our booking and the dogs loved her. She showed love, knowledge and professionalism. I am and have already booked her for more visits and an overnight. She has quickly become my regular and reliable sitter as I am new to the area and was in need. Thank you Lillie!”



“Great experience! Very helpful and has decades of experience working with bigger dogs. Terri had my german shepherd dog looking so cute in the pictures we received.”


“This was our first time using Rover. We recently adopted two “feral” cats that are not too feral. We had Mikaela come and check up on them while we were away. She was great and they were very happy to see her. She gave them their favorite wet food, filled the feeders, cleaned and checked water, and even got a few pats in. We were very pleased with Mikaela’s visit and the spoiled “ferals” look very happy, and relaxed, after her visit. We will definitely have Mikaela come again and recommend her to others.”


“Heather was on time, and took good care of our pups while we were at a wedding. We are from Indiana so it was stressful to leave our dogs in a rental for 6+ hours. Heather helped alleviate that stress by coming and taking the dogs for a walk, playing with them, and feeding them during the wedding. I would definitely recommend her services!”


“Sydney was great! Planned a trip short notice and needed someone to check on my 10 month old golden retriever puppy. She came the night before to meet us as this was my first time ever using the app. Will definitely use her again!”


“This was our first booking with Dixie B. She took excellent care of our Cat!...will use her services again.”


“My boy had a great time with Yolanda! Very caring family who did an excellent time watching my dog. Thanks for the stay! We’ll definitely be back next time we need someone.”


About: I am passionate about taking proper care of your pets and looking out for their needs such as exercising them and of course, belly rubs! I am totally flexible. I do not have any sort of other job or responsibilities. However, I do ask for at least one week notice. I specialize in doing overnight stays in your home as I do not have any pets of my own. No husband no kids, no grandkids. So I am flexible to spend a lot of time with your pets while you are gone. If you prefer, I can board your dogs in my home. I have a fenced in yard and we exercise every morning on a walk or an outing in a peaceful,safe and quiet country setting. I never have more than 4-5 dogs at a time, so everyone gets lots of individualized attention.

“She provided exceptional care for my two dogs during my absence. Her communication was excellent, and I highly recommend her services. I will definitely use her again in the future.”


About: I got my dog when I was 13 and she was the best thing that happened to me. She was the most loving and caring dog I ever met but lost her to a serious illness and I just love to give out my heart to animals and would love to spend some time with your animals. I am a stay at home mom and the moment. Son is five and in kindergarten and he loves animals just as much as I do but because I’m not completely over losing my dog I haven’t been able to get him a dog for himself. I’m home and have a dog park right now the road from me so keeping dogs a breeze. I always have an eye on the animals. Never feed food other then the kind given. Nothing in the rooms that they would stay in that could hurt them.

About: 🐾 We treat every pup that visits our home with the love and tender care they deserve. Whether it’s playing with them in our fenced back yard, taking walks around downtown Seneca, or simply lounging in the living room, we treat every furry guest like part of the family. We enjoy taking many photos and videos of your babies and writing frequent updates to let you know they are well and in good hands. As life-long pet lovers, we have experience caring for young energetic pups, and those mature friends that may need special care and attention. So, if you just need to drop off your best bud for the day so they don’t have to be alone while you work or doing errands, or for an extended stay while you enjoy a well-earned trip, we are here to be your pet’s home away from home. We offer multiple-pet discounts!

About: Reliable, Experienced, and Offering Intro Rates for New Clients! I’ve trained and cared for my own anxious, high-energy golden retriever, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with big personalities, anxiety, or unique routines. I also have experience with large breeds, leash training, and making every walk safe, structured, and fun, with plenty of sniffs, movement, and positive reinforcement. I’m currently offering discounted intro rates to build my Rover profile, and I’d love to meet your pup! Whether they need a quick potty break or a long energy-burning walk, I’ll treat them like family and tailor our time together to their comfort level. I’m calm, dependable, and available for both one-time walks and recurring weekday slots. Message me to book, your dog will get physical and mental enrichment, and you’ll get peace of mind Due to flexible work, I’m available most days from morning through early evening. Depending on what works best for you and your pup, I’m happy to help with last-minute walks and recurring schedules. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I use secure leashes, avoid unsafe areas or overstimulating environments, and always walk with calm, consistent energy. I tailor each walk to your dog’s needs — whether they need structure, extra sniff time, or a confidence boost. I follow any home access instructions carefully and always treat your space with respect. Your pet will be cared for like one of my own.

About: I have never known life without at least one dog in my household. As an adult, I have raised two dogs from puppyhood and two cats from when they were kittens, as well as day check ins and walking for other friends and family pets. While I have no formal pet training, I have read plenty of books in preparation for my own dogs and their training. I am currently a stay at home wife, so my schedule is very flexible! I am an early riser and can come later in the evenings if needed I treat all my fur clients as if they were my own. I can text photos or videos so you can see how they are doing as I provide food, walks, snuggles, and love when you’re away. If possible, I would prefer a meet and greet before any service for the pet to get to know me and for myself to get to know them! Also if needed, my car is set up to travel with pets, as my own dogs love going for car rides

“Second time using Ashley for a drop in! She is invaluable!”


About: I've raised and cared for dogs and cats my entire life! I'm familiar with them at all stages, ages, and sizes with basic or special needs (medication, extra snuggles, house rules, etc.). I'm also skilled with caring and training pups! My current dog, Duck, was raised and trained using Zac George's inside-out training which enforces positive behavior and builds a strong relationship with your pup. Duck has also experienced some long-term healthcare needs and emergencies, all of which were handled with absolute care, precision, and peace to cause less stress on him. I'm familiar with medication regimens and adapting to an animal's needs. As for cats, I have two of my own that I love dearly! I'm here to provide any care they need as well including snuggles, treats, and playtime. **NOTE OF AVAILABILITY** I'm available all day Sunday-Tuesday for pet care. On Wednesday and Thursdays, I'm unavailable 12:15 - 6:15 due to work, and again I'm unavailable on Fridays 11:15 - 5:15 due to work. I can check in on your pets or walk them anytime before or after! As the owner of a rambunctious pup, I understand the value of rules! If visiting or staying in your home, I'll obey all house rules for myself and your pet. I clean up after myself and your pup as well as crate them, treat them, or whatever else they need.

About: I’ve taken care of pets of all shapes and sizes as well as house sat for 4 years. I also own a big dog and have owned medium dogs and cats when I was younger. I’m currently working from home so I’m available most days, anytime, except Sunday mornings. I am comfortable house/dog sitting on holidays and extended periods of time as well. I’m more comfortable with watching pets in their own space so they are comfortable too. Pets need lots of exercise, play, and attention. I like to stick to the pets schedule so they have an easier time while their family is away! It’s also important to me that they aren’t alone long. Company, care and companionship are essential! Trust is also essential. I’m very organized and to myself. You would never have to worry about me rummaging in your things or areas I’m not designated to.

“Julia was perfect with Maggie. On her first visit, she spent a long time trying to earn Maggie’s trust, and by the end of the three-day sitting, Maggie eagerly waited for her at our doorstep. Even when we got home, Maggie stared at the door waiting for her to come back again. We will call on Julia again in the future without hesitation.”
