About: I feel so honored when my friends ask me to care for their pets because it requires reliability, trust and patience. I can provide plenty of cuddles and enrichment! I’m also comfortable around animals with special needs. I always provide pictures and updates! I’m free all weekends and I’m pretty flexible with weekdays depending on the location. I’m more available in the mornings and evenings for drop ins and house visits! I always introduce myself to pets with a warm welcome and ensure they are comfortable with me before I care for them. I let them take their time getting used to me. I always make sure fur babies are fed, walked, had a potty break, and are played with!
About: As a kid, my family had a couple of dogs and several kitties. All of my adult life I've been owned by cats and loved by dogs. All of my pets have passed away, so If you have a pet you love, I will love it, too! I am a retired widow with plenty of available time to care for your furry loved ones. I have few commitments, and can be away overnight. My cats had a large cat tree to climb and play, lots of interactive toys, and a tidy litter box. I went to puppy school with our Collie.
About: Hey I’m Taylor McDaniels and is 23 years old. I have been having pets my whole life. Sometime in the future I want to be a veterinarian. Also, I have experience of taking of other pets even had business of my own doing dog walking and pet sitting. I had also volunteered at an animal shelter cleaning kennels, dog walking and just simply playing with them. Right now I have two reptiles living in my home a snake and a bearded dragon. I had 3 cats, 5 dogs, a hamster, an iguana and rabbit. I enjoy a pets company I have no problem taking care of any pets. I have been wanting to be a vet since I was in 6th grade and love working with pets.
“Noelle was awesome with our kitties. Sent many pictures and took time to play with them. She also maintained great communication with us and kept us updated. Thank you so much for helping us out Noelle! Would highly recommend Noelle to anyone!”
“Adelle was lovely! She came and did a meet and greet and goomba loved her. She took great pics of him playing around with all his fave toys and sent a summary of what she did :)”
“Alexis was great with our very energetic but sweet 70lb labradodle. She made visits 2x daily while we were gone and came as promised to feed her and keep her company. It was also a nice surprise to see that she did our dishes while away. Would definitely recommend Alexis to care for your fur babies :)”
About: I have had dogs growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I love being with them! I am willing to go behind your expectations and work hard. I can’t wait to get to meet your pups! I’m currently part time and have a lot of my days free. I will be starting college soon but I will still be available Monday-Sunday! Safety is my biggest priority I will take care of your doggy as of it is my very own. I live in a great neighborhood/ community we have sidewalks all over and I have a fenced backyard.
About: ***Attention*** To all of my pet owners *** Duty has called for my service to deploy and I will be unavailable for Rover services starting March 20th. I will miss my regulars and should return sometime in October. I hope to see you all in the future. Blessings to all I’ve taken care of pets since the age of 8 and have experience in a variety of ages from 2 months old to senior dogs. I’ve fostered dogs for a few years in various conditions. I have tons of toys and a large bark park for your pup to do zoomies until its heart desires. I can take female dogs in heat and dogs not crate trained on a case by case bases. I work Monday-Friday and typically away no more than 8 hrs. I usually arrange my schedule so I’m gone for a shorter amount of time when I watch other dogs until I know they are comfortable. Typically house trained pets will be allowed to roam freely throughout the house as my dog does while gone. In the early mornings, afternoons, evenings and weekends, pets will be given walks/bathroom breaks and play time. I have a bark park, great neighborhood with sidewalks and very low traffic, and large park nearby to bring your pup to for playtime. If house trained, pet will be able to roam freely while I’m away and at night while they sleep. If not we can crate your pet or I can setup my office to lounge while I’m gone. The area is puppy proof for safety and I have a camera with speaker for monitoring.
“Karinne watched one of our 10 months old puppies (husky/lab mix) for us named Marlow, for 3 days. We requested visits 3x a day (feeding, walks, playtime, and bathroom breaks). She took care of him during some pretty hot summer days and made sure he ate ice cubes, doggy ice cream, and was entertained inside during the hottest parts of the day. She even made sure to move the fan closer to his dog pen to make sure he had enough ways to cool down in between visits. Karinne sent me texts w/ pictures and videos of my pup throughout the stay (even on walks). She also paid attention to his bowel movements and tracked things just in case he had any digestion issues (we had recently changed his food). I had a family member at home during the whole time who was caring for a sick family member upstairs so she also told me that Karinne followed all of my directions and showed up during the requested times. We own 2 dogs and having Karinne watch over our boy dog at home made him comfortable and anxiety free. He can't go to doggy camp because he is not neutered at this time and has a heart murmur. Karinne made our time away from home worry free knowing our pup was in good hands. I will use her services again. Thank You!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Ariana! She did drop-in visits for our two dogs, Nickle and Dax, over the course of three days, and we couldn’t be more pleased. From the start, Ariana eased my anxiety with her consistent communication and the absolutely adorable pictures she sent of our fur babies during each visit. Both dogs warmed up to her quickly, which says a lot—she clearly has a natural way with animals. Ariana was professional, punctual, and clearly took her responsibilities seriously. It was such a relief knowing our dogs were in kind and capable hands. We’ll definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
“My cat Charlee was content and happy when I arrived home after a 5 day vacation. Anna's daily visits made all the difference in keeping my cat feeling safe, secure & loved.”
About: Cat Expert: Six years of caring for my own cat taught me how to give long-term love and support (feeding, grooming, and lots of cuddles!). Dog Buddy: I easily connect with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I am confident in providing active, safe walks and giving your pup plenty of one-on-one attention. Cozy Overnights: I would be happy to stay overnight at your home! This is the best way to ensure your pet doesn't miss you too much, their routine stays perfect, and they feel safe and secure while you are away. I'm currently unemployed, so I have plenty of time to look after your pets. I'm available from 6 a.m. and can take care of your pets at a time convenient for you. I don't work on Saturdays. Unfortunately, I can't host your animals at my home, but I'll be happy to care for them on your property. Rest assured, they won't get bored.
“Kim was the perfect choice because of how attentive, thoughtful, genuine and sweet she is! Beyond pleased and thankful for the exceptional care she gave our elderly chihuahua. Will definitely be booking her again in the future!”
“Jessica is consistent and friendly. Our cats have grown to greet Jessica with leg cuddles and excitement. She has looked over our boys twice now. Each time she went above and beyond to care for our furry family while we were away.”
“Chelsea is amazing and took wonderful care of my two kitties. They are very different cats with unique needs and she was very patient and loving towards them, as well as detail oriented. I can’t emphasize how much I appreciate her approach and care with my cats.”
“Karen and Matt are great people. They watched Bruno while I was gone. They communicated well, informed, and updated me. They were kind, loving and gave lots of attention to my dog. I highly recommend them. Thank you!”
“We’ve used Piper several times now, and she’s absolutely wonderful! She’s kind, reliable, and really pays attention to our dogs and their needs. We just adore her and couldn’t ask for a better sitter!”
South Hill dog parents share their Rover experiences
Samantha was great! On the last day of our trip our rascal pups got all muddy in the yard and she helped clean them up and make sure our home wasnt too dirty when we got back. We didnt ask, she was just helpful and thoughtful without a word or hesitation. Awesome!
Thank you, Nikki, for taking such great care of Winston and walking him while I was out of town. I really appreciated the updates and knowing he was in good hands. Winston was happy, well cared for, and clearly enjoyed his time with you. Thanks again for your kindness and reliability!
From my early labor to an emergency surgery (3 months apart), Mikaila went above and beyond to be available to help care for our dogs. She was communicative, reliable, and incredibly kind. It gave our family peace of mind knowing our dogs were well cared for during such a stressful time.
Tiantian was absolutely wonderful! I am so extremely grateful to have had her watch my little old lady pup while I was away. She was extremely punctual, compassionate, and attentive. I got stuck in the northeast due to a blizzard and she was so accommodating and willing to do 4 more visits that were not originally scheduled. Her flexibility was the reason my pupper was cared for and comfortable during all of the craziness. I got home this evening and the house was tidy, my pup was asleep, and I felt so relieved. I would 10000% rebook and recommend that you do as well!!!!
This was our third time booking Ariana for drop-in visits, and she continues to be amazing! Nickle and Dax are always so comfortable with her, and we have complete peace of mind knowing they’re in such caring and reliable hands. She’s communicative, dependable, and always sends the sweetest updates and photos. We’re so grateful to have found her and will absolutely keep booking with her!
Tabatha has done a wonderful job taking care of my cat and my two senior dogs, one with special needs! She was always attentive to signs they were giving her and adjusted what she did to meet those needs. She also put in extra effort when one of the dogs got sick and was able to work with me on my fluctuating schedule that sometimes needed last minute adjustments. Always communicative!
Loved my experience with this capable dog sitter! She spent her own time to come and meet and greet the dogs and make sure she became familiar with their set up and what they needed. She was punctual and gave great feedback about how the visit went. I will absolutely use her again! The dogs really like her!
