“Trey was amazing! He provided detailed frequent updates. Responded to my messages with a very fast turnaround and went above and beyond. I would 100% recommend. Extremely happy with Trey’s attention and care for our animals. Thank you so much!”


“This was a wonderful experience for us and our little dog. Betsy was kind, caring, and loving. Her attention to detail and communication were superb. We had such peace of mind leaving our dog and home in her care- it made our days away so enjoyable. We are so glad that we met her!”


About: I have been a pet sitter for family, friends, and friends-of-friends for almost five years now, and I’ve seen it all! I am a true animal lover and wanted to expand my pet sitting opportunities on Rover! I’ve cared for big dogs, small dogs, puppies, and old dogs, as well as young, old, domesticated, and feral cats. I am experienced in administering medicine for both cats and dogs, and have had my fair share of pet emergencies too. To me, transparency is key. I feel confident in my abilities to care for your animal, but I will certainly let you know if there are any issues along the way and we can work through them together. You want what’s best for your furry friend, and so do I :) I work part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to love on and play with your fur babies :) I am completely free from Thursday (after 3pm) to Monday night/Tuesday morning. I work Tuesday-Thursday, 9:00-3:00. My work hours are flexible and I am able to work remotely if necessary. I prefer to meet with the owners before dog or cat sitting overnight, either in person or over the phone. I promise to treat both your pet and your house with respect and kindness :)

About: Hi! I love all kinds of different animals, and have a fair few myself. I have 3 dogs and 4 cats. Two of the dogs are indoor/outdoor dogs, and one is strictly outdoor because she doesn't like cats. I have experience with all different sizes and life stages of dogs. I do not have a fenced in yard, but we do have 10+ acres of land. I do have a part time job as a bather/preper for a groomer in Baxter, TN. But that only takes up a few hours of my day, not giving a lot of time with furbabies other than my own. I look forward to taking care of your pets in whatever way you may need. I'm currently working part-time, so that leaves me plenty of time to take care of your furbabies! I'm free every weekend and weekdays after 2pm. Let me help you by taking a little work and worry off your shoulders. I have 10+ acres ready for some exploring! I also have some outdoor toys to entertain the playful babies. I have two playful pups that are always down for company, and one that loves to laze around and sun bathe. I can crate your pet if needed.

About: I currently have two dogs of my own. I've had pets my entire life. I had dogs and cats growing up but I'm allergic to cats so I don't have any now. I had guinea pigs at one point as well. I love animals more than I can put into words. I like animals better than I like people. 🤷♀️ I dog sit for my sister and roommate all the time. I’m new to the Rover community so I’m definitely looking for long term and repeat clients! I’m open to all inquiries. I’m new to the Rover community so I’m definitely looking for long term and repeat clients. I am flexible and available on weekends. I prefer drop ins and day time visits. I'm not sure my exact schedule yet. I'm open to all inquiries. I'll need your instructions and details on how best to care for your babies. The more direction you can give me, the better. Within reason obviously. I love animals and I will take care of yours to the best of my ability.

About: I work with dogs almost everyday. I have experience with all types of pups. I have experience as I’m currently working a part time job at My 4 Dogs Academy and Spa!! I’m currently off for summer break, but I have experience with dogs from my current job. I’m available after or before my shifts at My 4 Dogs Academy and Spa. I hope to be your pup’s best friend!! 💗🐾 I have a fenced in yard with two big fur-babies! I watch pups very cautiously as you can never know what might happen! Your pup is my main priority!!

About: I have had pets my whole life, I love every furry pet as if it was my own! I work during the day at home and I am able to be flexible around walking times and will be able to follow any instructions. I’ve managed giving pets medication if your pet needs any type of medicine when in my care I can assist! I will enjoy helping with your furry loved one! I have one small shih tzu named Oreo she loves playing with other dogs and going on walks. She is one year old and super friendly. I look forward to meeting each new fluffy face! Thank you and please let me know how I can assist your family and your fur babies! Feel free to ask any questions prior!

“Nina is great with all FOUR of our dogs and gives them all the love. She's managed them with ease, gets them fed, some have meds and they can be a handful at times. She's amazing. I feel calm and know they're safe when she's with them ❤️”


“Mike was great! We just moved into a new home so our baby girl was in a more protective state than normal. Mike took the time to come out not once, but twice! to make sure she was comfortable with him before we confirmed our booking. By the end of his stay, she was giving him hugs so she loved him so much. Our baby boy is still such a pup and Mike was patient with him. He left our home as he found it and sent us pictures while we were gone so we could see our babies having fun. It was so nice to not have to worry about them knowing that they were being well cared for while we were gone. We definitely would like to book Mike for any future trips we take.”


“Our giant doofus of a dog loved her. She took care of not only the dog and cat but also two dramatic pigs and two stubborn goats. When we had last-minute scheduling hiccups she was flexible and understanding. We're grateful we found her!”


About: I have always loved animals from a very early age. With each passing moment, I become more certain that my life and future will revolve around them. I dedicate most of my time to caring for the dogs at my farmhouse, and I truly enjoy spending time with them and learning from their behavior. I am currently working in inside sales, which allows me to work entirely from home. However, I am in the process of transitioning to a full-time dog-boarding business. I am available both during the week and on weekends. As a highly professional individual, I prioritize staying actively engaged with the pets I care for. I enjoy taking them for walks and treating them as if they were my own, tailoring the activities based on their age and energy levels. When it comes to being in the owner's home, I am meticulous about maintaining cleanliness and ensuring everything is securely locked before leaving.

“Laura was great with the dogs. She came on short notice and met us and our dogs. She was very friendly and did a great job with our fur babies. We will definitely use her services again. She is highly recommended.”


About: I’ve had cats almost my entire life, and small dogs for a few years as well, so I’m familiar with their personalities and needs. I treat every animal like they’re my own. I take time to learn each pet’s personality quirks, favorite toys, and cuddle preferences. I pay close attention to details, routines, and aim to make every visit feel like a mini vacation for your pet, and peace of mind for you! I go the extra mile to make sure your pet(s) feel safe, loved, and never alone. I send plenty of cute photo updates as well!! Pet care fits seamlessly into my weekly routine because I work part-time at home with a flexible schedule. I am a photographer as well, so I spend much of my day on my computer, which makes it easy for me to stay at your home and give your pets plenty of attention. I also co-parent three cats with my sister, so when I’m away, they’re well cared for, no worries there! They all have vastly different personalities, and dietary needs. This experience helps me understand the needs and comforts of pets in a busy but caring environment. I care for furbabies in my clients homes by following routines for feeding and providing fresh water, keeping the litter box clean, and offering playtime and cuddles. I offer gentle attention based on their personality, whether they want to play or just chill nearby. I keep an eye on their health and mood to ensure they stay happy and comfortable in their familiar space. I also send daily updates with photos or videos so you can see how your pet is doing. I’m experienced with cats of all personalities from shy, high energy, anxious, senior cats, to playful kittens. I’m also experienced with medication giving and different diets. Your pet’s comfort and routine are my top priority!

About: Throughout my six years working with animals, I have worked in an animal shelter as well as a training company. I have also begun pet sitting in my free time! I work from home so I’m always available to meet your pets needs! I’m also very comfortable coming to meet you and your pets prior to my stay! I care for each pet as they are my own and ensure that I am following all requests by the owners. I also send regular videos/pictures! I am willing to do any side work to help out as well while you are away!

About: I have been surrounded by pets my entire life, from dogs to cats to bunnies. With experience in overnight sitting and caring for senior dogs, I provide reliable and loving care.

About: I’ve pretty much been taking care of dogs & cats my entire life! I grew up with animals and have always been very passionate about my love for them! I’ve taken care of dogs on special diets, dogs with health conditions, young dogs, old dogs! I don’t discriminate against the breed, I love them all! I’m a currently a student, I’m taking classes online. My schedule is pretty much free to care for you pups! I’m very flexible, and looking forward to meeting your pups! I treat your pup as if they were mine! I am very loving, very playful, yet know when to be stern. I love dogs with my entire heart. I am very respectful to your house rules, as far as your home goes and your furbabies!

About: I am currently available to any last minute holiday sitting! I grew up surrounded by four dogs of various ages and breeds, giving me firsthand experience in tailoring care to their unique needs. From energetic puppies to senior companions, I’ve learned how to provide the attention, exercise, and care they require. Currently, I share my home with a cat, which has deepened my understanding of feline care and affection. My experience with both dogs and cats ensures your pet will receive personalized, loving care while you're away! My schedule is flexible, and I’m always willing to work with the needs of my clients to ensure their pets receive the best care. I can check on your pets before and after work, and on my days off, I’m happy to provide 24/7 care or house-sitting as needed. While my work schedule is currently fluctuating, I’m more than happy to discuss and coordinate times that work best for you and your furry friends! When caring for a client’s pet, my approach is always tailored to the unique needs and personality of each animal. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all method because every pet is different—some thrive on active play and social interaction, while others may need a quieter, more structured environment. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special requirements they may have, ensuring their well-being and comfort are always prioritized. Whether it’s managing specific dietary needs, administering medications, or adjusting to their energy levels, I plan my care based on what works best for them. I’m naturally affectionate, so I ensure that pets feel loved and secure in my care. Housing arrangements would include plenty of attention, cuddles, and interactive play to make them feel at home. For dogs, consistent walks and outdoor activities are part of their routine to keep them physically and mentally stimulated. My goal is to provide not just care but companionship, treating every pet as if they were my own. Ultimately, I strive to create an environment where pets feel happy, safe, and cherished while meeting their specific needs.

“Abbie spent 4 days and 3 nights watching our home and our two babies, Kya and Greta. Greta is a highly active 1 year old German Shepard and Kya is a 7 year old less active Shepard. Abbie kept my wife informed daily with text and pictures, my wife just returned home to find our home in order, well kept and most of all our girls safe and happy!!! Thank you Abbie we’d happy to use you again!!”


About: Ever since I was a child, I've always loved animals, specifically cats. Something about them just clicked with me. My grandmother used to foster animals in Modesto, California. I helped her out frequently, by keeping the animals company and taking care of their needs. Now that she's retired, I wanna continue to be around animals as much as possible without her help. I work part time, so I have a lot of time available. My schedule is very flexible, and I work best in the afternoons and evenings. I am currently customizing my home into an environment where a cat could be comfortable. I'd say the essentials for are a happy kitty are wet food packed with protein, a clean litterbox, places to scratch, and lots of personal space. A happy dog is one that has outlets for their energy. I can stop by and feed your cat, clean it's litterbox, and play. I can also come over for a few days, making sure your feline friend is supervised while you're away. I love to play with cats, I'd never turn down a play session, and I'm also a big cuddler. What matters most to me is that your cat feels safe.
