About: I have always loved taking care of animals of every kind and I have been doing it for forever. If you let me take care of your pet, they will be loved and cherished and you will have a trustworthy and respectful person in your home. I am currently a college student so I am hoping to work with your pets on my breaks at home. On breaks or weekends I will be over to see your pet regularly and I will make sure each pet is well taken care of. That means working them into my daily routine. At your home, I am putting your pet and your house first. I will clean, take care of and watch anything you need me to while you give me permission to be at your home with your pet. No matter what I will make sure your house is taken care of and your pet is comfortable around me.

“She took such great care of Matilda! Loved the regular photos and updates!”
“Very communicative, dependable, and very kind to my timid kitty! I would definitely hire again!”
About: I have taken care of my household dogs, cats, and bird since I was 6 years old. I started watching family members animals when I was about 13 years old, giving me 5 years of experience with pet care. I grew up on a saddlebred farm, so I am very used to taking care of all types of animals. I am also very used to giving medication to dogs. I am a current college student at the University of Alabama and take classes from 10 am to 2 pm. However, I am dedicated to taking care of your animals and will prioritize them after my classes are over. During pet sitting I will walk, feed, and make sure your dog has water before I leave for class, and then come straight back to the house to walk your dog again. When I am pet/house sitting I will follow your guidelines on feeding times and rules. When it comes to walking I will ensure they will get a lot of outside time whether that includes letting them outside to play in the backyard, or taking them on several walks throughout the day. When I am overnight pet sitting I walk them at least once at night.
“We have a senior fur baby who is very shy around strangers, but Elizabeth kept us updated, and had him sitting on her lap in no time! She also had to do a little bird-wrangling after one flew into our garage, and bless her heart, she kept at it, so it wouldn't die. We will definitely be calling her again!”
About: I am an animal lover who has trained and cared for a variety of species since an early age. I have experience with dogs, cats, fish, rabbits, guinea pigs/cavies, chickens, pigeons, goats, sheep, pigs, cattle, and horses, though I have primarily focused on the first eight species listed. I have shown poultry and rabbits in 4-H and at national-level shows, and I have a heart for both pet and exhibition or working animals. Large dogs or creatures that need a little extra coaxing or finesse do not phase me. My current living situation does not allow me to own pets, so I am hoping to serve pet owners through Rover while also satisfying my love of animals. My husband and I recently moved back to Hillsdale (we were students at the college a couple years ago). I will be entering the Graduate School of Classical Education in fall 2024. I'm currently a stay-at-home mom to my 9-month-old son, which means I have a pretty flexible schedule. I expect to have enough flexibility to engage in pet care even after I start school this fall. I care for all pets calmly, gently, firmly, flexibly, and with attention to detail. Safety is a top concern, whether it involves making sure all doors or gates are closed securely, keeping dogs on-leash until I know them well enough, double-checking the kind and amount of food I am giving a cat, handling a rabbit in a way that protects its vulnerable spine, etc. I greatly appreciate well-trained animals, and I enjoy training them, but I am very willing to work with young and less-trained animals, too.
“Judith did an amazing job taking care of my cat. I’ve used her before and booked her again. I would highly recommend her and would use her again.”
About: I grew up around dogs and have often been tasked with dog sitting, walking, playing, basically anything. Most of my family are dog people, and I was in charge of a lot for my childhood dog. I work nights, so I’m available during those busy days when you can’t find the time! I’m the perfect flexible carer during this hectic summer. I am incredibly respectful in spaces that aren’t my own, and while I can’t currently welcome your fur babies into my home, I’m comfortable in new environments and taking the pups for a walk anywhere!
“Hailey did a wonderful job taking care of my cat! My cat is usually shy around new people, but he warmed right up to Hailey. I will definitely check about Hailey’s availability before my next trip.”
About: I have grown up on a farm my entire life and absolutely love animals. I have 3 dogs a Shih Tzu, Austrian Shepard, and English Shepard, so I have worked with a few different sizes and energy levels. I also have lots of cats that I absolutely adore. In addition, I have taken care of some family friend pets and loved it so I thought I would give this a shot! I’m currently in college and I am missing my pets. My workload is pretty light right now so I thought l this would be a great way to use my time and hopefully I can save a little as well. Currently, my schedule is pretty workable on both weekdays and weekends! I know that when I am way I want to make sure that my pets are in good hands. I hope that I can be those set of good hands for you! I am able to do what needs to be done in order for your pet to feel safe and taken care of.
About: Hi there, I’m Brittany. Animals make me happy. When I see a pet, I see a child. They are a member of the family. They have the sweetest souls and biggest hearts and I wouldn’t treat them any other way. I have one dog and I was raised with 3 dogs and 2 cats. I have always been an animal lover and I always will be. Every day I take my dog on at least one walk and many times I walk him multiple times per day. I treat my fur babies like family and how I would want to be treated. I am not only here to help you during your busy schedule but to become a friend to you and your fur baby. To house sit during longer durations, I can travel to anywhere. I would love to bring my golden retriever with me if your pets like to socialize and make new friends, he loves other dogs and gets along with them great, he is very social and has been to many dog parks and households with pets, but if not that is ok and my mom can help me care for him while I am gone. Also, I have a boyfriend that loves animals and has 2 children of his own, I would love if he could come hang out with me during my stay if the family was comfortable with it, but if not I can leave and visit him from time to time at his house. For drop in visits, I can assist at my base rate within a 7 mile radius and if it exceeds that I will ask for an additional rate to help with gas reimbursement towards a further commute. If you choose to book me, thank you for trusting me and I won’t disappoint you! My schedule is very flexible, and I would love to help accommodate what you need help with, whether that is daily or weekly. I am always picking up new work bookings. I will treat your animals and home as if it were my own, with love, trust, and respect. I have helped out for many years taking care of people's pets and homes. I have many references.
About: I was born into a family of pet lovers. We have had a wide array of pets in our home-cats, dogs, lizards, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish and more. I have become my church and friends' go-to pet sitter for years. I not only provide the love and care that pets need, I am also a licensed pet massage therapist, so your pet will get extra love! I am self-employed, so my schedule varies and is very open for providing top notch pet care. My day is better when I am able to provide love and care for animals! I provide pet care in your home and am able to work with your pet(s) specific needs and schedules. I want them to feel as unaffected by your absence as possible!

Daniel H.
“Danny watched Bliss and Bella while we went away for a father's day week trip. We had him come over, meet the dogs and they loved him right away. He is such a natural with dogs and I felt comfortable with him right away. Our dogs are fed a raw food diet and have treat allergies, but none of this scared him away! (Which we were very thankful for) He was on time, let the dogs out multiple times a day, kept up on their normal schedule, played outside with them and even gave them puppy massages! Our dogs were well taken care of and I would recommend anyone to have their dogs watched by Danny! He was amazing and made leaving for vacation so much easier!!”
