“Ashley was so great! She took great care of our pup, who can be a little difficult. She kept us up to date, spent quality time with Zoey, sent several pictures and took her on several walks. We can’t thank her enough!”
“Stacey was an absolute pleasure to meet, and I can tell our boys loved her because the shy one came out for photos! The boys were both happy and healthy when we got home, and even more important, they were both…chill. Serene, not anxious. She obviously spent time with them so they wouldn’t feel lonely or upset. In short: we are extremely happy and look forward to a long happy pet-sitting relationship!”
“This was my very first time using someone from the Rover app and I couldn’t have been anymore happier with Sydnie. She was prompt and attentive to my cats. She left notes and pictures of how my cats were doing each day. Sydnie was great!”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life, they truly make me happiest to be around them. Myself and my family have owned cats & dogs of all sizes throughout my life. Would love to hang out with your pet!

About: I have taken care of animals (horses, chickens, cats, dogs, fish, alpacas, pigs, etc.) at multiple houses and farms. I was always the one people would turn to when it came to taking care of their household of animals when they were away. I am in the process of becoming a dog trainer as well as groomer! I've had experience with giving animals shots, pills and liquid medication as well as care after surgeries. Since I am self employed that gives me more open time to play, walk and care for the animals. Currently I own 2 cats and 2 dogs that live with me, I will need a few times a day to let them out a couple times a day. In my home I have a dedicated animal room that has beds, crates, a dog couch, lots of sunlight and a deck for the dogs to hang out on. I also have a pen that I can use if there are dogs or puppies that cannot hold their bladder and have frequent accidents. Blankets and toys galore for the dogs anytime they need them. There is a large yard for the dogs to roam around in or hiking areas for us to walk on. In your home I will make sure to take care of your lovely pet as I would with any of mine! Cuddles and snuggles as well as springs and tug-of-war, whatever activity the animals need to get their energy out as well as keeping them feeling safe and happy. The directions given to me from you will be taken to heart. Feeding, walking and sleeping schedules will be upheld to a T.
“Jennifer was awesome checking in on my 2 cats while I was away at a conference. We texted and also spoke via phone about each cat’s need, how they may respond with a new person, and my expectations. She spent the time of the short check in to ensure they were fed, watered, and did play time with them. She also kept me apprised the entire time. I plan to use her in the future and highly recommend her!”
“Nick did a terrific job watching my cat while i was away, made sure her food and water bowls were replenished, even scooped her litter every day! Everything went very well- grateful for the overall care he took during the process.”

About: Hello all, Different kinds of animals and pets have been apart of our lives since we were both very young. Our family has had many pets over the years but we currently have 2 dogs which are a golden doodles and a poodle and we also have 2 tabby cats. We live on a 3 acre property on the mountain where we have built a huge fenced in area for the dogs to run around and have fun. Dogs are allowed in just about every room in the house except the basement, which is fenced off. Walking the dogs, letting them outside to play, give them lots of water and making sure they don't get into mischief is second nature to us. We would love to be able to help out by letting you get some away time and not have to worry about your pet. We live less then a mile away from Lake Shannondale and the Mountain Lake Club. Maybe you want to stop by the lake for a swim and don't want to take your dog so feel free to drop them off and go have fun! If you're looking for someone to love your dogs as much as you do while your away then you've found them. let me know if you have any questions and we'll do our best to respond quickly We have a great partnership between a work from home dad and a stay at home mother. We take turns making sure the dogs get let let outside, fed, and plenty of exercise. The care of each pet is different from one to the other. We keep track of each dog and learn their behaviors and take note of how they interact with each-other. If there is special instructions we can of course oblige! We do appreciate any heads up about any little kirks or habits as well just so we can be sure to take note. We have a huge fenced back yard and we also have a few separate rooms that can/are used for kenneling or to be separated if needed.
