About: I bring a calm, confident energy that pets naturally respond to. Whether it’s a playful puppy full of energy or a senior dog who needs a gentler approach. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs, special routines, and administering medications if needed. What really sets me apart is my attention to detail and the love I put into everything I do. I take the time to understand your pet’s unique habits and needs so they feel safe and at ease. I also keep you in the loop with regular updates and photos so you can relax while you’re away, knowing your pet is in good hands. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, mid-day playtime, or evening snuggles, I can easily adapt to your pet’s schedule and needs. Because I’m home most of the day, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. I can offer plenty of bathroom breaks, play sessions, and supervision—especially helpful for puppies, senior pets, or dogs with separation anxiety. Caring for animals adds so much joy to my routine, and I truly love making them feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, loving, and familiar environment. I stick closely to your pet’s usual routine. Mealtimes, walks, play, and rest. So they feel comfortable and secure. In your home, I treat the space with respect and make sure your pet gets the same love and structure they’re used to. In my home, pets have a safe, cozy space to relax, with lots of attention throughout the day since I work from home. I keep things clean, quiet, and low-stress, and I always provide regular updates so you know how your pet is doing.


“It was a great experience for our fur baby. Alyssa and her family treating him like he was apart of their family and you can tell he had a great time. We will continue to use her services moving forward. Definitely a 10/10!”

“Laura was amazing with my off the wall super energetic 3 month old springer spaniel puppy!! She is a super experienced trainer and was amazing at providing a balance between structure/close monitoring for safety and a lot of fun play time for my girl. She sent a lot of updates and advice that was very helpful for our training as well! Laura went above and beyond and even gave me tons of training tips outside of the visit because my pup is very difficult and has been struggling with separation anxiety. Best value out of a Rover stay I’ve ever gotten!”


“Lindsay was awesome! Super helpful with my last minute need for care for Millie and Thor. They spent the whole day there’s I received pictures throughout the day and she stayed in contact with updates throughout the day as well. When I went to pick them up they both seemed happy and well cared for. Very please with her service she was super friendly and welcomed my fur babies with loving open arms. I would definitely book again when needed. Thank you so much Lindsay!!”


“This was a last minute booking and Holly was more than eager to watch our Anakin. Holly was a delight to meet, very friendly, outgoing, and personable. She was great with Anakin and sent us updates, pictures throughout the day and had him play with her dog and asked if she could give him things before providing anything. Holly made us feel at ease and Anakin was very happy when we picked him up and even got a new toy which he has not let go. We highly recommend Holly for your pet care needs and will use her again if we’re in the area. Thank you Holly!”

About: I have raised two dogs (one large bread and one small bread) both from puppy to 16 & 17yrs old. I have had three cats (one still residing with me). Currently I dog sit two fur babies since 2020. In a week I am losing one of my buddies due to his parents relocating. I am already missing him and am hoping to make some new walking and cuddling partners. I work part time on weekends but can sit with advanced notice. Monday til Wednesday I am available for anytime on shorter notice. When I have your furry sweetheart I do not leave them by themselves at all,so I like to schedule when there is nothing to conflict with the time I have them. When in my house they have no restrictions from me, only what the parent wants. I have an outside bathroom area on leash for quick bathroom trips. I like to go for at least one or two long walks per day, weather permitting and your dogs abilities. I live in a walkable neighborhood and close to parks. When at your house I will follow whatever routine your partner is used to.

“Kimberly is super kind and chill. She watched my dog even though he had a cone. She kept me posted on how he was doing and was prompt at responding. I'll definitely be using her again!”


About: Hi! I'm Caitlin and I have worked with animals professionally for over 10 years in grooming, boarding, training and animal shelters. Now, I work remotely and spend my time with my 4 cats :) My specialty and preference is in cat care and senior dogs. However, I will consider all booking requests. I am currently not able to handle very energetic animals, or animals that are very strong. I am better suited to more relaxed pets. **Important** - I currently work a full time job from home and can be flexible with scheduling. I will work from your home if booked for house sitting, so it is required I have a reliable internet connection! - At this time I require m&gs for all house sitting services before bookings, to ensure our expectations meet and to make sure your pet is comfortable with me. For long term house sitting, I highly reccomend a trial run of 1 day of daycare or a drop in visit. I work from home full time so I am available during the workday when most people are away! I love being able to hangout with new friends during my work week. Safety is and always has been my top priority. I am proudly fear free certified and have worked on extensive safety training measures in all of my professional working environments.

“From the very beginning, communication was clear and friendly, and I felt confident leaving my pet in Matthew and Brett’s care. During my dog stay, I received regular updates with photos, which gave me peace of mind and showed that my dog was happy and well looked after. It was clear that they genuinely cared about my furry baby, treating him with the same love and attention they would give their own. I would highly recommend Matthew and Brett to anyone looking for reliable, attentive, and compassionate care for their pets.”


About: With over 10 years of experience as a dedicated dog caregiver, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for a variety of breeds, from small Chihuahuas and Pugs to playful Beagles, energetic Aussies, and gentle Rottweilers. I offer everything from daily walks and potty breaks to teaching tricks and providing loving overnight care. My calm, patient approach allows me to build trusting relationships with every pet, ensuring they feel safe and loved while you’re away. As a true fur lover, I treat each pet like family, always giving them the attention and care they deserve. I’m currently stay at home so I will have enough time to watch your dog over the day and nights. Also available during the weekends. I have a fenced yard to let them go out on potty break whenever they need. I’m a strong person, so I ain’t afraid of taking them over walks, great relationship builder skills. I also can take them on a run if dog needs to canalize their energy.

“Melissa was very welcoming to us when we arrived. She and my fur baby hit it off from the start and she was very attentive to her needs. She would be someone I’d call upon again.”


“Julia was so sweet and helped Finney feel right at home. She was attentive to all his needs and even sent me pictures and updates throughout the day to let me know how he was doing. I’m so happy she could help me out!”



About: I grew up in the country, always having two dogs and two cats. This fostered a true love for them inside of me! I have 10 years of experience caring for not just cats and dogs, but farm animals as well. My experience also bleeds into house sitting and taking care of these pets over night. I used to have a dog who was blind and diabetic, so I am aware of how taking his blood sugar works, and how to administer insulin shots. I also have experience with puppies, as my dog had 11 puppies years ago. I would love to be entrusted in walking/playing with/caring for your dog. Please consider allowing me to keep your pets happy and healthy in my care. My partner and I work together to care for animals we are entrusted with. He works from home and I work part time, so together we are able to provide lots of exercise, walks, and naps for your animals. We have a large yard with a long line to let your dog out on to enjoy the outdoors. Our friendly retriever mix will be a great companion and give your pup some socialization as well. We have toys for them to play with as well.

About: I have had and cared for dogs since I was 5 years old. I just recently lost my elderly dog that I took care of for many years and through the end of his life. I have lived with up to 5 dogs in the house and can handle the chaos of multiple dogs and the high energy of puppies. I have lived in Chicago for the past 3 years and am familiar with the local dog parks. I am currently a fourth year medical student at Rush and am interviewing for residency currently. I am very empathetic and conscientious dog lover and hope to help you with all of your dog care needs. If you have any questions please reach out to me. I am currently interviewing for residency positions and have a lot of availability in my schedule, with most of my activities ending by noon or early afternoon. I defer to my clients for the needs of each and every pet that I take care of. I am able to crate train and take care of dogs with special needs.

Over 4 pet parents in South Ellicott have booked doggy day care
South Ellicott dog parents share their Rover experiences
Mindy provided day care for my aunt's dog, Sassy, while we visited Niagara Falls from Arkansas. Sassy had never been under someone else's care and my aunt was nervous about leaving her with a "stranger". But Mindy was wonderful and allowed us to come for a 'meet and greet' when we arrived in town the day before our booking. My aunt was still nervous about leaving her the next day because Sassy, being a Maltipoo, has separation anxiety. But Mindy knew taking Sassy for a walk right after we left would be a good distraction. She was also wonderful about sending pictures and videos especially that first day and that made us feel better about leaving her. By the second day Sassy was comfortable going straight to Mindy when we arrived. Also, she was very flexible regarding drop off and pick up times.

Very close to Buffalo hospitals. I had a procedure done and Mitchell and his pup, Leopold provided excellent accommodations for my pup, Finnegan. He was excellent at communicating and sending pictures. Finnegan seemed happy and well taken care of. Thank you Mitchell, you put my mind at ease.
