About: Hi! I would love to get to know your pets and give them all of the cuddles <3 I have experience cat and dog sitting for family and friends. I have grown up with dogs my whole life! My family dogs have a special place in my heart <3 They are between the ages of 8yrs and 10yrs. So, I've gotten transitional experience into taking care of senior dogs. The littlest of the two was diagnosed as a diabetic 3 years ago. So, I am well versed in administering under-the-skin injections and oral medications. Currently, I only have one cat living with me. She is a domestic medium-hair, and just over a year old. Even though I adopted her last May, she still has so much kitten energy and keeps me on my toes. As a graduated senior, I am quickly approaching an open-schedule. I work with the university, but my shifts are incredibly flexible. Additionally, I make it a point to not work the weekends, so I have 100% availability. I have the pleasure to have a fenced in backyard in a quiet, residential neighborhood. Your pets will have quick access for potty breaks and outside play time. The B-line trail is also just behind our house, so we can plan for plenty of walks while in my care. My cat, Mali, is a fully indoor cat and on Revolution Plus. As of June 2025, she is up-to-date on all of her vaccinations.
About: I've had my 2 cats and dogs for 12 years and adore them! I make new feline and canine friends easily so I'm happy to sit/walk yours as well! My work schedule is light right now so I have a lot of availability for sittings and walks and have done this a lot for friends. I am open to your specific directions for caring for your animals and am flexible. Write down any specific details and I will follow them. I am trustworthy and have house sat and dog walked for many friends and neighbors! People count on me!
“Kalee could tell I was nervous about leaving my cats for the first time. She was great - spending high quality time with them, sending me great pics. It put me at ease. I highly recommend Kalee.”
“Excellent care for our 2 indoor/outdoor cats! Always nervous having a new caretaker for our pets while we are away. From day 1 Regan made us feel confident that our Cats were in good hands!”
About: I frequently watch my family dogs, two golden doodles, along with caring for other pets (nannying, dog sitting, etc.). I also love going to the animal shelter and giving the animals some play time. I work 9-5, so outside of those hours during the week, and anytime on the weekends! I am flexible though, please just let me know! I have various dog parks around my property and am willing to drive to houses to take dogs for long walks. My environment is very pet friendly!
“Chloe did such an amazing job with my two cats! She went above and beyond. She had great communication throughout her time with them and always sent me lots of photos. I was able to enjoy my vacation more knowing that they were in good hands. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a kind, reliable cat sitter!!”
“Audrey has been an absolute lifesaver and an amazing sitter. Our dog adores her and is always tired at the end of her visits from all of the fetch they play! We are thankful to have someone so reliable to call when we have a weekend trip or vacation that we can’t take our dog on. This was our first couple of times using Rover and we would recommend Audrey to anyone!”
About: Hey there! 🐾 Need someone to take care of your furry friends? Look no further! I'm Kelsie, a passionate and reliable pet sitter. Trust me to give your pets all the love and attention they deserve while you're away! 🐶🐱🐾 I have a few years of personal experience with caring for animals along with a few years of work by along side a local humane society helping foster furry friends till they find their forever home. With me currently working from home I have a pretty open availability to work with different pets and on their schedules. I am available to take them out or on walks as need and at set times. I do not have a fenced in yard but we do have a pretty safe and big yard for your dog to roam around in and always provide leads for them to play outdoors safely. I also have a spacious living area for them to roam around freely indoors with plenty of toys and our own dog and cat to keep them company.
About: I've had a pet dog for as long as I can remember. My parents taught me the value of having a happy, healthy companion and instilled a love of pets and pet care that will last a lifetime. I've interacted with a variety of dogs over the years, both in my house and in friends' houses, from small Pomeranians to medium Beagles to large Black Labs and Great Danes. I currently have a Boxer/Bulldog mix who I've had since he was 6 weeks old, so your puppy will be comfortable with me! I know that trusting me with your pet is trusting me with a member of your family, and I take that honor very seriously. I look forward to meeting your fur baby! I currently work part time sporadically throughout the day, so I have plenty of opportunities to visit your pet during the day. I also have full availability in the evenings and at night, so overnight visits are not an issue. As I mentioned, I currently have a Boxer/Bulldog mix who would love to keep your pet company! I live in a quiet neighborhood a short drive away from Clinton Dog Park, so on nice days, we can take a trip to the park and run around there as well.

“Katie is truly amazing with animals! She’s incredibly loving and gentle with our 14-month-old kitty cat, Mali — always cuddling with her, playing, and making sure she feels safe and adored. Katie has two dogs back home, Gracie and Luna, who absolutely adore her, and she treats them like her babies. She’s constantly feeding and petting the neighborhood cats, and she lights up every time she sees an animal. Her phone is filled with thousands of photos of her furry friends — each one loved like family. Katie is kind, reliable, and has a natural, heartfelt connection with animals. You can trust her completely to care for your pets as if they were her own.”

GAGE E.
“Gage was the perfect dog sitter! Extremely communicative and very attentive. I definitely plan on reaching out to him again next time I need someone to take care of my pets.”
Marisa H.
“Marisa adopted a puppy two years ago, and I have watched her develop into a fantastic dog mom these past two years. Marisa demonstrates extraordinary patience, love, and commitment to not only her dog, but all animals she meets. The first thing she does when she comes home is greet her dog, Cow, with the biggest smile. She always has time to give him plenty of love and attention. Cow has lots of special needs due to allergies, and Marisa is amazing at being accommodating and caring for anything he requires. I promise that if you hire Marisa to care for your furry friends you can expect her to provide the same level of love, attention, and care to your pets as she gives her own. I would trust her in a heartbeat to watch over my own pet, and I can guarantee you will feel the same way. Book Marisa while you can!”
