About: My household has always had a furry friend in it since the day I was born from small ankle biters like Chihuahuas to hefty cuties like my current Bully Pit that I can safely wrestle in some horseplay. Puppies, seniors, we don't discriminate 'round here! I don't mind getting my hands dirty and have small experience in clicker training younger pups along with an energy to match whichever personality I'm given. A boundless Collie? We can play all day! A sleepy old Bassett? We can chill with some TV. I'm not above being put to work either. Give me a litter box to clean. Give me medicine and I'll make sure it's getting swallowed. Toss a cat my way as well why doncha? I worked as a cat caretaker during my fall and spring semesters in Auburn University, as well as own a lovely kitten named Autumn, so having a feline to shake things up would be a nice treat! Trust me, my hands have a good pain tolerance. Beyond that, I know it costs major bucks to look after your pets. Or pay someone ELSE too. Sometimes a week stay for a pet can run up to $500! That's why you come to me. I offer affordable rates because I'm more concerned with the passion than the money. I have multiple pets of my own and I know the chip they can put in my wallet just from vet visits! So I won't let it get in your way! I'm not paying your vets though, to specify. 🤠 I've graduated happily from Auburn University with a degree in Animal Sciences, meaning my schedule will be pretty open until I finalize my long-term job! I can fill my days with plenty of slots for your cuties. :) Safety is a non-negotiable when it comes to our furry friends. Just like I do with my own pals, I stay by them at all times when outside and encourage their attention with toys or loving scritches when they're not doing their business. If push comes to shove, I am capable of safely wrestling an overzealous dog into calming down or tightening the 'ol leash if need be. With cats, responsibly scruffing rarely fails. Inside, unless stated otherwise where they're allowed to park themselves, I stay with my little friends on the floor and can crate them if specified to do so when it's bedtime. If they're free roamers, I let them tag along where I go! Except the kitchen.
“We have used Victoria for a 30 minute walk and an all day doggie daycare for our 7 month old lab / golden retriever mix. It was overall a 10/10 experience. Victoria was very responsive and had the perfect, doggie friendly space to take care of our puppy. Victoria even schedule a meet and greet session with us before our first booking to make sure we were comfortable with the set up. We will be using Victoria again!!”
“Dalton was absolutely amazing! We need a sitter for several weeks in a few months and I was very anxious about leaving my furbabies to be taken care of by someone else. I scheduled two dog walking sessions so the boys could get familiar with Dalton and it could not have gone better! They were beyond excited to see Dalton when he arrived for their second walk. I am so happy to have found Dalton and feel completely at ease with him watching my pups while we’re out of town.”
“Couldn’t ask for anyone better for my pup! Justin & Jasmine were flexible with my last minute requests which gave me such peace of mind. I received thorough reports with plenty of photos. I know Prince was well taken care of and had an amazing time walking with Jasmine :)”
“Isabella was great.”
“Priya was AMAZING! She took such good care of Scout and always sent us the cutest pictures. She was always on time and kept Scouts routine the same every day. 10/10 would recommend Priya!”
“Amelia did a great job! Will use her again!”
About: I have walked and dog sat family, friends, and neighbors for years now and I am always excited to make new four legged friends and maybe two legged ones too :) Currently taking time off to focus on life and looking to help anyone who needs an extra hand! I love animals and have 2 of my own both with high energy! I have a fenced in acre yard and love to take dogs on car rides and walks! I always run errands with my dog in the car when we pick up curbside orders and coffee XD
“Kaleigh was great. She was there each time we requested and took our fur baby for her walks. She was a great communicator. I will use her again!!”
About: Hello, my name is Michael and I'm ready to care for your pets! I have many years of pet care experience but my main selling point is that I work from home and can offer round-the-clock care, attention, and love. I look forward to getting to know your furriest family members! Also, I'm very large so large dogs are more than welcome. I work from home so I am available pretty much anytime that my clients will need. I am also working on a personal project so I do not get out and party very much so I am happy to keep your pets company for as long as they like. As a long time pet sitter, I know how to handle all aspects of care including medicine, diets, exercise, and enrichment. I will be happy to care for them in your homes and will bring my own food and water so don't worry about me raiding your pantry.
About: My name is Clea Kate. I am 25 years old and have been petting for about 5 years now. I have had several jobs for people in my current city of residence. I do own a car and am available for transportation if desired. I love animals and have a Golden Retriever and a cat of my own. I have always been an animal lover and am good at taking care of their needs. I have experience house sitting with animals, walking, and drop in care for them. I am excited to find new jobs and keep a job related to being around animals. I look forward to these new experiences. I am available after 4pm, Monday-Thursday and Fri-Sun anytime. I will be available for walks, drop in care, and bathing during those times and days. I have an indoor cat so saftey is my biggest concern. I always am very careful with entering my home in order to not let her out and am very attentive to dangers around the house that she could harm or be harmed on. I am very attentive and can fit a client’s particular pet needs.
About: Growing up on a farm meant loving and caring for all animals. As an adult, I have had animals on the smaller side including rabbits, dogs, and cats. I often pet sit for family, friends, and neighbors when they need a helping hand. I genuinely believe in creating a safe and caring environment for these beautiful creatures. I work from home and get to decide my schedule. This allows me to schedule as many drop-ins and walks, or board your fur babies. For a drop-in or walk I will ensure your pet is provided care and love. I am happy to collect mail and water plants if needed. For boarding your canine friends, I offer a cozy and loving home. I have my own medium sized dog that is a sweetie and loves other animals. I also own two cats that are used to dogs but I can also separate them if needed since they have their own room to escape to.
“Ann keeps being wonderful to use! 2 weeks in a row that I have needed her daily and she always shows up and even an extra visit at the last minute.”
About: I've been taking care of animals ever since I was just a little thing. I've taken care of animals that require lots of TLC (Rabbits and Geckos) with specific needs to have proper care as well as cats, dogs, gerbils etc. You name it, I've probably watched over at least one in my lifetime! I have worked for MJ the Critter Sitter as an actual business pet sitter. This also includes me working as my own pet sitter for friends, families and also clients on Rover. With that, you can rest at ease with your baby being in great hands! I’m currently working night shift at a hotel. So I have mornings and afternoons available for stop ins and also time for walks! For late night care, I could come around after work as I get off at 11 PM. :) I have worked for MJ the Critter Sitter as an actual business pet sitter. This also includes me working as my own pet sitter for friends, families and also clients on Rover. With that, you can rest at ease with your baby being in great hands!
About: A little about me: I am retired from AT&T, live next door to my son and his family and have a life long love of all animals. I’ve had experience with aging pets of my own and I’m able to give oral and topical medications. I’ve also had a lot of experience with pets with anxiety. Being retired allows me plenty of time to care for your pets. My routine will be adjusted to fit caring for your pet; not having your pet adjust to my routine. I can only board pets who get along with cats because I have one that means a lot to me. So, please understand if I don’t take your booking if you’re unsure how your pet will react to cats. I have a large fenced backyard for your pet to run and play in. If I’m house sitting in your home, I will follow your routine pet care.
About: I have taken care of all types of pet my entire life I would love to provide on the go families an opportunity to work or relax. I’m available at any time to take care and or play with your pet I’m also available for walks and grooming.I love spending time with all types of animals getting to know their personality I have a play are in the home for your pet to be inside with plenty of doggie toys. I have a big back yard for the pet to have fresh air and personal time
About: Thanks for checking out my profile! I've had a variety animals all my life, and my parents instilled in me that animals deserve the best care possible. Animals are too good for us, and I always want to make them feel loved and well taken care of whenever I can- gimme all the cuddles! I have almost 9 years of paid experience as a puppy-sitter, and I absolutely LOVE it! It's a big thing to let a stranger into you home to watch your family members, so I am more than happy to do a FaceTime/Zoom call or we can meet up at a coffee shop to get to know each other! When I watch your babies, I request a written list of all items/food times needed for each animal so that I can make sure everything is taken care of and all babies are happy and healthy while you're away! I'm working part-time right now, so I have lots of time to be with your babies and to make sure they have all the love they need. The longest I ever plan to be gone from your babies is 6 hours. As per my request, I will follow the written list to a T. I want to make sure your babies are taken care of while you're away, and realize that that can be a scary thing for animals. I always strive to make sure that your animals are comfortable and that they feel loved!
“Brenna was so amazing with Kenney and Sean, they had such a great experience with her and I’m so happy we were able to find her with such short notice! Thank you so much Brenna we are so grateful!!”
About: I’ve always lived in a household with dogs for my entire life, ranging from a chow chow to a husky mix to a cat and hamster. I I always felt that I had a special connection with animals and feel as if they really are another child in a family. I would take upmost responsibility in caring for whatever animal I’m charged with, since I would want someone to do the same with my own animals. I would make sure your pet will feel as loved and cared for as possible, as if they were mine. Animals really are a mans best friend, and they deserve to be treated as such. You don’t have to worry about leaving your animals with me, they will be in responsible and loving hands!! I'm currently an independent artist, so I have lots of time in between projects to check on and or stay with your pet. I love the art that I do, but it keeps me in the house a lot, and having a job that allows me to get out of the house and care for an animal sounds not only rewarding, but helpful on my end as well! I'll want to ensure any needs the animals may have - aka any allergies or triggers that would need to be avoided. I'll also want to know any house rules that the dogs need to follow and that I need to follow as well. Some folks are more lax than others, it all depends on the client.
About: I started off as a bather at PetSmart and realized the immediate connection and adoration I have for fur babies. I completed grooming school and when Covid hit I started my own mobile pet grooming and boarding service since the world was shut down. I currently own a mobile pet grooming service which allows me the flexibility to make my own schedule. I don’t have set days that I work and base my schedule off of my customer's needs. I speak at length with the pet parent to get information regarding the pet’s routines at home. Mimicking at home routines allows the pet to get used to being in a different environment. I also make sure when I take the fur baby outside of my home to use the restroom or transport them that they are secured by a leash so they won’t get away.

8. Ashleigh L.
“I am a dog and cat owner. Ashleigh is a natural with all animals. She is patient, loving, and very attentive when caring for my furry friends. Since I am working from home, Ashleigh helps out during the week to walk my dogs. They know what time she is due and wait for her by the window. She also looks for fun and new areas to walk the dogs, even if it's a short drive away. She is very good at keeping the dogs active, mentally busy, and they are always ready for a nap when they come home from their excursions. Of particular interest is that Ashleigh takes the time to get to know your animal. If she notices the slightest change in the any of my animals' behavior or habits, she promptly will let you know what changed. I recommend Ashleigh to anybody who doesn't settle for the very best when caring for their animals.”
