About: Whether it’s a high-energy puppy who loves to play fetch or a senior dog who prefers cozy naps and gentle walks, I tailor my care to fit each dog’s unique needs. I’ve handled everything from feeding routines and medications to cuddle sessions and zoomie breaks — and I love every minute of it! Your dog isn’t just a guest — they’re treated like family. As a full-time dog care provider, my schedule revolves around the well-being and happiness of your pet. I’m available throughout the day, offering flexibility to meet your pup’s needs, whether it's early morning walks, midday playtime, or frequent potty breaks. I prioritize consistency and reliability, ensuring that each dog gets the attention, care, and exercise they deserve — every single day. With my full-time dedication, I’m able to provide a personalized experience for each dog, whether it’s a quiet day at home or an adventure-filled outing. Rest assured, your pup is always my top priority! I have 1 walk, and 1 drop in for dogs outside my home scheduled daily. This requires me to be outside the home at a time for a maximum amount of 1.5 hours per each visit depending on the distance and length of visit. Please prepare accordingly if your pet requires crating, diapers, or anxiety support during my appointment times. Potty break and treats are provided before I leave and after I return. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I've ensured that all play areas are free from hazards. I take every precaution to provide a safe space for dogs of all sizes. Pet first aid kits are in home and with us on adventures. Medicines like dog calming peanut butters and digestive help for dogs with diarrhea are on hand at no cost. I will send you a message for the ok-go to use them if they're needed. Any medications or soothing helps you have are needed and appreciated in your dogs overnight bag during their stay. Each dog gets it's own drawer so medications, treats, doggy bags, etc. don't get mixed up with other pets items during their stay. I have equipment for administering liquid medication as well. You can relax knowing your dog is in caring hands, receiving the attention, love, and supervision they need. With plenty of cozy spots for naps and lots of opportunities for play, your dog will feel right at home — and you’ll feel confident knowing they’re in a safe, loving environment. **PLEASE READ: It's rare, but on occasion I find special care and fees must be applied to some dogs I sit for. I prefer transparency so I've written the rest of this section so there are no surprises. For dogs that are found to have a penchant for rolling in poop, dogs with diarrhea that requires more than baby wipes, dogs that potty inside my home and on my belongings, and dogs that destroy belongings or furniture - any needed dog baths, privates grooming, cleaning costs, and repairs will be added to the stay or negotiated through Rover support depending on the damage. Incident documentation and photographs will be provided to you in our visit conversation. Prices for grooming will be as listed below in, "A Typical Day" and on the menu. Cleaning will be $5 for each inside potty. I can purchase diapers for owners and add them to the visit fees to prevent further necessary indoor potty cleanup. If extensive damage is done we will go through Rover. If you are aware your dog has any of these problems, please notify me before hand. I'm better able to prevent these things from happening if I know in advance and we can plan better together for the care your dog will need during their stay. Dog diapers must be provided for dogs with the bad habit of going potty indoors or for dogs in heat. I provide restroom breaks every 2 hours maximum but this is sometimes not enough for some pets. Crates are required for dogs with destructive habits. This is to ensure a safe, disease-spreading free, hygienic environment for your pet, other pets staying with us, and our family. I do 1 walk and 1 drop in for pets outside my home a day. So for pets that need crating: treats are given going in and coming out of their crate when I leave and return for positive reinforcement. Time crated lasts no longer than 1.5 hours. Potty breaks are given before and after crating. Crating will be utilized if provided during indoor potty clean up to keep your pet away from the initial bleach treatment. If not provided, pets will separated from the area by going into the bathroom. Crating is not used for time outs in our home, only safety. Dog crates remain open as a safe space for your dog to retreat to unless I'm out of home. Other than my dog care outings, I or my husband are always present.**

“Meaghan was fantastic! She was very responsive and took our reservation last minute which was a life saver. Our doggos were so happy and well taken care of. We loved the pictures she sent when she stopped by! Thank you again!”



“Valerie did amazing watching my cat while I was out of town for the weekend! She was very attentive and communicative, so I never felt worried about the care he was receiving while I was away. When I got home, he was very content and happy and I knew he loved having Valerie drop in every day!”


“I have two cats who always act so stressed out when I leave and even more stressed when I first get back. After leaving them in Jen's care, they seemed so relaxed and happy. She took great care of them and my place while I was gone. Would definitely recommend.”


About: I've been both a long term and short term pet sitter for both dog and cats. I enjoy walking and playing with dogs. I do require meeting your precious pooch before accepting an assignment. My availability varies from week to week as a substitute teacher. I would love to drop by to make sure your friend is well-fed, walked, and relieved. I am available seven days a week for overnight stays to ensure your baby is not alone. I do require that I meet your pet before overnight stays. I like to assess our friends personality and hear about their unique needs and routine.

About: I’ve been a pet owner since 2000. My family has included dogs, cats, and fish. As an adult, I have had my own dog but, since her passing, I am looking to fill in the dog loving gaps with pet sitting! I am a nurse so I typically work 12 hour shifts three days a week. This means I have four entire days off. My work schedule is very flexible I have a fenced in large back yard with plenty of room for your pup to run. I am also comfortable with schedules and crates. I know how much I appreciated picture updates so I will be sure to return the favor

Sand Hills pet parents share their Rover experiences
Elana was amazing. She made sure to take great care of my cat while I was away for a couple weeks. She sent me updates with pictures and notes of the visit, letting me know how things went. She was always so communicative, and I’m absolutely going back to her when I need a cat sitter. 10/10!

Valerie is AMAZING! She took such amazing care of Frank and turned out to be a cat whisperer too! My very skittish cat, who usually hides from most people that are not me, came out for love and treats from Valerie. The animals cannot rave about her amazing care enough. Thank you, Valerie!

Julianna did a fantastic job taking care of Papaya over the Christmas, New Year break. She is communicative, responsive and reliable. We appreciate Julianna going above and beyond to clean up after Papaya and we know for a fact that Papaya is going to miss playing with her! We would highly recommend Julianna to take great care of your fur babies! 💗
