“Savannah has been great! We’ve had her drop-in cat sit twice now and she’s given us great updates and showed great patience and care for our very... “particular” kitty 😸 We can’t wait to have her watch our pup!”



“Steve is great! It was the first time we hired his service and he put us at easy and took really great care of our cat. He communicated with us entering and leaving the house and sent us pictures.”


“This was our first time using Rover and it’s safe to say my kitty and I had a great experience. Coco sent tons of lovely updates and Sedona looked very happy and comfortable!! Everything went great, truly!”



“Michele took great care of our cat Veronica. Our shy kitty even came out long enough for Michele to take a photo, which is a first in all of our Rover visits! Thanks for everything Michele!”


“Terra was amazing! We found her on Rover somewhat last minute after some issues with our other sitter, and I am so glad we did! Terra was so flexible when we had to make some last minute changes to her care schedule due to our kitty, Nickel, coming down with a UTI the morning we were leaving for vacation. Terra proceeded to take such great care of Nickel. She kept us regularly updated about how Nickel was doing, and sent pictures, which were so comforting to see. Nickel was not so sure about taking his meds from a new person, but Terra did a great job working with him and trying different strategies to help him. All-in-all, Terra went above and beyond in so many ways, and we feel so fortunate that our little guy was in her care. We definitely highly recommend, Terra!”


“Elyea was wonderful with our three dogs! We have an old grumpy dog, and a dog with a bit of anxiety - she handled it all with ease. We got an update and pics with each visit which was reassuring for us while we were away. We will definitely be using Elyea again and would HIGHLY recommend her to care for your pets!”


“Annicka was kind and professional - I could tell that my cats were in good hands. Her home was clean, and she was very responsive to messages. Thanks for working with me so last minute! 🙏🏻”


About: I grew up on the family farm surrounded by dogs and cats and all kinds of animals - caring for them was part of my life. That lifelong connection led me to volunteer at a local dog and cat shelter where I've gained even more experience with pets of all temperaments and needs. I treat every animal like family and I willl give your pet loving care whether it's for a quick walk or an overnight stay. I have a very flexible schedule so I can fully prioritize pet care. My days naturally revolve around the animals I am caring for and I enjoy creating routine that suits their needs. My home, farm in the woods, is calm and pet friendly space where animals can relax, go for walks or play. In client's home, I'm respectful of their space and routines, I communicate with the owner, send updates and make sure the pet has all my attention.


“Shanelle took great care of our kitty while we were gone for a few days! She made sure to keep his litter box clean and food and water full while we were away. She also made sure to give him lots of love and playtime. We really appreciated the updates and pictures we got each day. It was also nice that we got to meet her ahead of time. Highly recommend!”

“Carissa did a wonderful job watching my two cats. She is a great communicator and is obviously very knowledgeable about cat care. My cats received lots of play-time and even got brushed! Highly recommended!”


About: I am a canine enrichment coordinator at a boarding facility and I teach basic and intermediate manners training classes. I have a degree in behavior science and I'm hoping to complete my KPA training certification in the near future. Ask about enrichment and basic training add-ons! I work as a full-time enrichment coordinator and dog trainer. As such, I have restricted availability. In general I am free Monday, Tuesday, and Friday evenings and all day on Saturdays. I am available for dog walking, check-in visits, and house sitting. I can also offer enrichment and basic training services as add-ons. Let's talk about some enrichment strategies to help your dog live a happy and full life!

About: Animals have always had an extremely special place in my heart. Ever since I was a kid I’ve helped care for my family’s own pets: feeding them, caring for their health, giving baths, taking them outside and on walks, and pretty much anything else having a pet entails. I also am in the process of beginning volunteering with the cats and dogs at Lawrence Humane Society! I am a full-time student, but I am available whenever I am not busy with classes. I also have a few volunteering shifts throughout each week that I need to work around, and a job (that I will be done with next month). I provide them with food and water, clean up their litter, play with them, take the dogs on walks, and show all the animals lots of love! I am also flexible and open to doing whatever I am able to.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a very little girl. I love all types of animals and my children and I would do anything to provide for any animal. I am a busy mom with a full time job, that being said us moms have super powers so I can make pretty much anything fit into my schedule. The workweek I would be available for early mornings and evenings but the weekends are open and flexible. I have a big backyard and a lovable shitzu and lab to keep your animal company. I enjoy taking walks and getting exercise and playing inside or outside.
