Pet Sitting Russell

“Ciera was a lifesaver today!! We had a sitter cancel last minute and needed someone to drop in on our baby so he wasn’t alone for 12+ hours. Definitely recommend!”

“Desiree was approachable, kind hearted, responsive, and accountable. I could tell she wanted to care for my dog to the best of her abilities by the questions she asked. She wanted to not just care for my pet, but be respectful of my home. Highly recommend!”

Spence K.

“Eleanor did a great job! She was responsible, communicative, and took good care of our dog. I really appreciate her professionalism and dependability. We will definitely book her again.”

Michelle B.

“Jenna saved the day on very short notice. She arrived right on time and my girls seemed to like her. This was only her first visit but she seems very reliable. I would definitely book with her again.”

About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life, and now have my own dog and 2 cats who I adore and spoil. I love any excuse to be outside and going for walks, and even better with a pup or two! I live in Germantown in my house with a fenced-in yard, I have cared for senior dogs, raised a puppy, and managed multiple chronic illnesses with my cats - all worth it, and I am passionate about taking care of all animals. I have a hybrid work schedule, and work only a couple miles from my house, so I am consistently home and caring for my animals, and am happy to work with pet schedules that may need frequent check-ins! I have my own home, with a fenced in backyard. I walk my dog at least once a day, and am happy to accommodate different energy levels and needs

“Meadow is AMAZING! What a warm loving human - would have no hesitations to rebook again.”

“She did go above and beyond at doing drop in with my dog it was her first time I left her with someone she dint know and my dog was not happy the first few drops she did but did keep coming back till my dog decided to warm up to her at least enough to go on a walk”

About: I've been surrounded by critters since I was a little girl - from fish to foster puppies, reptiles, rats, bunnies, dogs, cats, and everything in between. Basically, you name it, I've hugged it. In the past year, I've started dog sitting regularly for several families in my hometown of Louisville, as well as in South Hadley, where I go to school. I love spending time with animals and look forward to getting to know yours! I'm a student in Richmond for the summer with a flexible schedule - I have plenty of free time all day, every day, and would love to spend my free time with your critters! I know all pets have unique needs, and am always willing to adhere to what you feel is best - whether that means six walks a day, regular litter box cleanings, or three-hour playtimes. I will always leave your house clean and make sure that your pet has all of their needs (and more) taken care of.

“Donai was exceptional! I knew when she came to meet Alice and Hank and she got on the floor to meet them, and asked for some treats to win them over, that she had already won over my approval. She gave me daily updates and daily pictures. It made me so happy on my trip to both see them, and also see that they were being well cared for and loved. Would definitely book Donai again!!”

“Saved the day when I needed a last minute drop in. Huey seemed to love him. Will be booking rover and rover again. 🙂”

Darlane B.

“Bayley did a great job with all 3 of our dogs! She came over in the morning for breakfast; as we needed help because our reg dog-sitter's schedule changed. She jumped right in and was very flexible! Def will use Bayley again!!”

About: Although I’m new to Rover, I’ve had the opportunity to care for dogs through family and personal experience! I’ve pet sat for my brother’s four large dogs in his home, making sure they were fed, exercised, given plenty of attention, and kept on their normal routine while he was away. My sister recently adopted a puppy and I puppy sit him overnight every other weekend as well, I help potty train and with socializing him. I once had a senior dog of my own who was truly part of my family. Caring for a senior pet taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of paying close attention to a dog’s comfort, health, and individual needs. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I strive to make them feel safe, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away. I look forward to treating every dog in my care as if they were my own and providing regular updates so pet parents can have peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work as a full-time Lyft driver, which gives me a very flexible schedule. Since I create my own hours, I’m able to adjust my availability to meet the needs of each pet and their owner. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday drop-ins, evening care, overnight stays, or last-minute requests, I can easily structure my schedule to provide dependable, attentive care. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I strive to be as accommodating as possible to help them stay comfortable and maintain their normal schedule while you’re away. I provide a safe, loving, and attentive environment where pets are treated like family. I live in a spacious four-bedroom condo-style apartment with access to a fenced-in dog park, giving dogs a secure place to play, exercise, and enjoy the outdoors. When caring for pets in my home, I do my best to keep them on their usual routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by their owner. When I’ve cared for my siblings’ dogs, they’ve slept in bed with me (if that’s what they’re used to), and I bring them with me whenever it’s appropriate so they’re rarely left alone. I enjoy having them by my side and giving them plenty of love, attention, and companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s home. I’ll follow all care instructions closely, provide lots of affection and playtime, and send regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Sarah was wonderful with our dog! She gave great communication, was timely and followed instructions perfectly! We will definitely be booking again! Highly recommend.”

“Missy was wonderful! This was my first Rover experience and I was very nervous with my cats needing medication twice daily but Missy was on time and great with communicating. I really appreciated the cute pictures she sent with each visit and I would definitely schedule with her again!”

About: I grew up in a home full of animals, including two cats, a dog, a bearded dragon, and a tank of colorful fish, and also loved taking care of neighbor's pets when they traveled. I also had the opportunity to look after my sister's senior cat during the pandemic, including administering his bevy of daily meds. Although my current state in life makes having a pet of my own impractical, I continue to spend lots of time with animals, including my parents enormous rescue dog and a neighbors' sweet orange cat who I look after when she travels. I would love to help out with your pet care needs, and can even attempt to teach your furry friend anatomy or pharmacology (I'm in med school), although I can't guarantee they'll listen :) As a student, my schedule is fairly flexible and I can work with you to find a time that is ideal for both of us. Generally, I'm free for drop ins in the morning and evenings, as well as any time on weekends. I know that it's a huge act of trust to allow someone into your home and even more so to have them take care of your pet. Having always had pets growing up, I know that they all have their own quirks and different personalities, often known only to their owner. I promise to care for each pet as an individual, taking into account their (and your) preferences and wishes. I also aim to maintain good communication so you never have to wonder how they're doing in your absence.

“William is an awesome pet sitter! He paid attention to each cat and their needs. We have 4 of all different personalities and he was awesome with them.”

About: I am a dog owner available to watch dogs of any size. My home is cozy and comfortable. They can relax and play with the many toys I have here. I give every dog plenty of attention, affection and playtime so dogs feel comfortable while there owners are away! I’m the dog dad of the cutest French Bulldog who is super friendly! I’m able to short or long dog walks in the afternoon or evening. Let me know your dogs specific needs so I can accommodate! I have owned dogs my whole life and am a responsible pet owner. I’m happy to follow any rules you may need to keep your dogs routine as consistent as possible! I work full-time and am home by 2:30 on days I’m not off. Once I’m home boarding is my focus, I always look forward to playing and giving dogs I’m boarding plenty of attention. I’m able to be with your dog while using the bathroom, I have a yard but it’s not fenced so I walk them around the yard on the leash while going potty. My dog loves having friends around so your dog will feel comfortable during their stay!

“We appreciate you so much! Emily genuinely cares about our dog’s welfare and health and will go out of her way to help and make him more comfortable. He is not the easiest pet, but despite his sometimes confusing behavior, Emily goes above and beyond to provide the highest level of care.”

About: I have years of experience providing reliable and passionate pet care for all ages and sizes. I am also experienced in puppy training, senior care, and providing medication if needed. I take the utmost care to ensure that your pup's safety and wellbeing are always my top priority. I work from home so I am flexible in that regard. I can take my work around any space if needed and work around your schedule. I clean up after pets thoroughly as well as provide them with lots of potty breaks and exercise. I never have them meet new dogs for their safety.

“Rileigh responded to messages in a timely manner. She was able to extend the period of service when my travel plans changed. My kitties were happy when I got home and their boxes were clean.”
