“Emily is the finest dog sitter we’ve ever had and that is over the last 50 years. She is prompt, efficient, creative, has excellent communications, and most of all loves and cares for each dog individually!!!”



About: I love dogs. I have always rented and never had an opportunity to own my own pets. Rover will give me a chance to get my pet fix in. Here in a few months I will be able to work from home 2 days a week. In the meantime, I am available mornings, during my hour lunch break, and after work during the week. I have flexible availability on the weekends. I treat clients homes how I would want my own home to be treated. I will always leave a home better than I found it. I pay close attention to detail and will go above and beyond for your pet.

“We booked Ellena last minute for check-ins and she was awesome with our fur babies! She communicated with us wonderfully and even sent pictures during her visits! will definitely book again when we need her!”


“Nathalia visited Ziggy for his first ever drop-in without me home since I got him earlier this year. He loved his time with her, and she took plenty of photos. I also had some significant instructions for her first time here without me, so she was good with being communicative and asking questions where necessary.”


About: I got a puppy for my son back my May of this year (2023) and we have had so much fun with her! Rather than getting our puppy a puppy to play with we thought we would try out dog sitting as a way to get some more fun furry friends in the house! We take our golden doodle on a walk every day for about 20-30 minutes. She has free access to the backyard whenever she wants through the doggy door. My 5 year old plays with her both inside and outside depending on the weather. Charlee goes to the groomers about every 8 weeks for her spa day. I will treat your fur baby just as I treat mine! All the snuggles, play, and love they deserve! My son will also provide more than enough to wear them out I promise that haha

About: My name is Chelsea. I am married and have two daughters and a son. They are 10, 6, and 3. I have a wonderful German Shepherd and a 20 pound cat named Karen. We love caring for other animals. We also live on three acres so there is plenty of room to run and play! I can come to your home or board in ours. We are very active individuals. Both my husband and I are runners. Just let me know if you have anymore questions and I would be more than willing to answer them! We are very flexible with our schedules. My husband works full-time, but I drive for Uber so I can make my own schedule when needed. We try to stay as active as possible and play with pets in the home. We have a German shepherd that loves the extra play time!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have always loved being around animals. I have experience walking dogs and have also done overnight pet sitting for both dogs and cats from time to time. I’m reliable, patient, and treat every pet like my own—with love, attention, and care. I’m comfortable and confident with dogs of all kinds—big or small, shy or energetic—and always prioritize their safety and happiness. I’m a student-athlete at Washburn and also work part-time, but I always make time for pet care because I truly enjoy it. My schedule is flexible around classes and work, especially in the mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m great at planning ahead and will always make sure your pet gets the attention they deserve. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, their safety and comfort always come first. I follow any instructions carefully, keep a clean and calm environment, and make sure pets feel loved and secure. I take time to build trust with each animal and always respect their routine and space.

About: Since childhood, I have enjoyed the companionship of dogs. The first family pet I knew for nearly its entire lifetime was our rescue beagle my family adopted when I was about 8 years old. I have pet sat in the past, both overnight/in-home sitting, in addition to drop in visits to feed and let dogs outside for potty time. I have experience caring for senior pets, adults and puppies. I am available to care for your pets during weekday late mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, and for overnight stays with your pet(s) as well. I am comfortable crating dogs if necessary and I have some experience caring for dogs with special needs, more specifically senior dogs that have mobility challenges.

About: **About me** I have always wanted to move to the country and care for animals all my life. My husband (Patrick) and I currently have three rescue dogs and 5 outdoor rescue cats. We also have two horses Valentine and Peanut that love to walk the trails with us. My passion is caring for animals and I have had years of experience raising all breeds and types of pets! We live in a small home built on 31 beautiful acres. We have a fully fenced large back yard and several wooded trails, a beautiful pond in the front yard and lots of room to play! Your pets will love coming here and it will truly be like they are on vacation. I have 4 grand pups that come to the farm regularly and they get very excited to visit. **About my home/services** I will provide a loving and fun environment for all pets that come here to stay! They will be safe and will love every minute of their stay! **About my neighborhood** We live on 31 acres with only 1 neighbor close. We have a fully fenced back yard and a pond to fetching toys if your pet loves to swim. We have wooded trails that we often take walks on and we will have lots of exercise or just hanging out in the back yard.

About: I’ve been a pet owner for 10+ years. My fur babies are my world. I believe all animals deserve to be loved. Choose the best. I’m going to school part time and I would love to enjoy my free time taking care of some fur babies. Ask me your questions. I have a fenced in backyard. I live right by a park and university. I have an upstairs and downstairs in my home. Many space.

About: I have an immense love for animals and treat my own as if they were my children, giving them endless care, respect, and affection. Their happiness and well-being are my top priorities, and I go above and beyond to ensure they feel safe, loved, and understood. This deep connection extends to every pet I care for, making me an exceptional pet sitter. I am patient, responsible, and attuned to each animal’s unique needs, whether it’s playtime, special diets, or just providing comfort. My dedication and genuine passion for animals make me someone pet owners can trust completely. I am always at home. I do work from home. But that is a few hours per day and my schedule can be adjusted to the needs of any animal. I have a lead setup but all dogs will be taken on multiple walks a day. During bed time they would be with me unless requested by owner to be crated.

About: As someone serving in the Army, I bring a strong sense of responsibility, structure, and reliability. You can trust that I’ll always show up on time, follow instructions exactly, and treat your pet and home with the utmost care. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I already prioritize structure, responsibility, and physical activity through my Army background. I start most days early, so I’m used to being on a consistent schedule — which pets really thrive on. Whether it’s early morning walks, feedings, or just keeping them company during quiet afternoons, I make sure they’re cared for with love and attention. Even with a busy week, caring for animals gives me a sense of calm and purpose. Plus, I’ve already built pet care into my own life with my one eyed cat so it’s more than a routine; it’s second nature. When I care for cats in a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and seen — especially since cats are creatures of habit. I stick closely to their feeding schedule, keep litter boxes clean, and give them space to warm up at their own pace. Some cats want cuddles and playtime, others just want a quiet presence — I respect each cat’s personality and adjust my care to match. I always check for signs of stress or illness, and I send daily photo updates so you know your fur baby is doing well. As a cat mom myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet.

About: I'm not certified to train animals, but I'm happy to continue working on any training already in progress, and I'm able and capable to give meds as needed. I am done with school and I work part time so my schedule is flexible and allows me to take care of your animals when needed. I help give my own dog her required nightly meds. Previously, I've house sat with animals and let them out to go to the bathroom as needed and fed them as instructed.

About: I have three large dogs who are often very hyper and sometimes are more stubborn than I would prefer. I'm used to taking care of them and have no problems going above and beyond to fulfill whatever needs your furry friend may have! My schedule allows me to take care of pets early in the morning before school, after school, and into the evenings. Additionally, I am available almost all day on the weekends, and I can also house-sit overnight on weekdays or weekends. When caring for pets in my home, I ensure they have a comfortable and safe environment. This includes providing appropriate food, fresh water, regular exercise, and plenty of attention and affection. I have a large, fenced-in yard and plenty of space inside of the house. If I'm caring for pets in their home, I'll make sure to follow the owner's instructions carefully, maintain their routine, and provide updates on their well-being. Each pet is unique, so I tailor my care to meet their specific needs and preferences.
