Its so nice to know she was alright and that my pets were well taken care of...my neighbors and she kept in touch as well in case she needed help.. Thanks Chloe!!!”
About: I’ve always had pets growing up and some would say I prefer animals over people. I’ve been involved in rescue since 2004 and have seen firsthand just how cruel people can be. As a former vet tech, I promise to take care of your babies just like my own. You have nothing to worry about while you’re away. Lots of check ins, photos and love! I do work full time M-F but am available before and after work. Depending on location, a quick trip at lunch to say hi may work too. I’m totally available on weekends. while visiting your home, your kiddos will be safe with me. Whether it’s playing in a fenced yard or on leash, They will get all the exercise they need.
“Kelsey was absolutely amazing! She was very responsive and also proactive in sending us pictures of our Lacey girl. She left our home in excellent condition and super clean. Such a sweet kind person and wonderful with our fur baby. We will be booking with her again!”
“She did an amazing job with our two dogs. She stayed overnight & the house looked exactly how we left it & she cleaned up dog poop. 😆 We will definitely have her watch them again when we need.”
“MicKayla was great — she was on time everyday, sent pictures, stayed in contact with us with any updates or questions and came home to our pets being happy in house the way we left it — highly recommend to anyone and we will be booking again with her next time”
“Haley did a great job taking care of our dogs for a week while we were out of town. She took them on several walks despite the Columbia heat in July. I could tell they were well loved from the pictures she sent while we were away. She also was very helpful with a water issue we had at the house while we were gone. Definitely would use her in the future!”

“Emily was so sweet to our dog, Odin! In the pictures she sent, he looked so relaxed and happy, which just warms my heart and makes me feel better about leaving him with a Rover sitter. Emily was communicative and left our house in great condition. We look forward to having her sit again soon!”
About: I have personally had pets my whole life and have taken care of them. I have mainly had dogs, cats, and one bird. I am fully open to all types of care for animals I have also cared for senior animals who need a lot more attention. I have a full time job but would be open for staying with any animals over night or walking dogs after I get off work. I am also completely free on weekends. I prefer to care for animals in the clients home as my house and yard are not equipped for other animals. I will follow all rules given by the clients and treat their animals as if they are family.
About: Animals have been a part of my life since day ONE- I grew up as an only kid on the family farm, so my pets were truly my best friends. That early bond gave me a deep, intuitive understanding of animal behavior and body language. I’ve raised and cared for dogs, cats, horses, goats, rabbits- you name it- since I was little and have always been able to tell when an animal needs space, reassurance, play, or just a quiet moment. I also have experience working with injured and/or sick animals; administering IV/IM injections, wound care/first aid, breathing treatments, etc. Today, I share my home with a sweet dog and cat, and we also own a horse who is boarded just outside of town. I care for every pet like they’re my own and develop deep bonds with the animals in my care. Whether it’s snuggling on the couch, a slow walk for a senior dog, or calming a nervous horse, I take pride in reading their needs and meeting them with patience, kindness, and care. I’m currently between jobs and using this time to re-evaluate my career goals- so I’m home during the day and have a very flexible schedule. The only regular commitment I have outside the house is feeding horses at our barn twice a week, which takes about two hours— so even on those days, I’m not away for long. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and relaxed. At my home, they’ll have access to a large, fenced backyard, playtime with my friendly terrier mix Robi and lots of attention from my middle school aged kids who love animals. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. I treat every pet like part of the family, wherever they are.

I am a stay a home mom & have open availability to help care for your sweet babies. I also enjoy spending extra time with your loved ones for playtime. I have a fenced in backyard and 1 friendly dog that loves to play and run around. I enjoy spending extra time with your babies to give them all the loves.
About: Ive been taking care of dogs for over 10 years as well as raising a kitten in college. I love spending time with them and making sure theyre taken care of like they are my family and that goes for all animals. Currently working remotely and have plenty of time during the day to take care of your furry companions all day. They will be well taken care of with lots of attention I believe pets do best when theyre in their own environment where they feel safe. I will strive to make sure their daily routine is not interrupted so they have the least amount of stress while you are away from home so you can enjoy your time away and handle what you need to without worrying about your furry family

“Braelyn was great. Pearl was calm and at ease with her (even though there were massive thunderstorms and electricity went out one night). Communicative and helpful. Would definitely ask her to sit with Pearl again.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 11 and watched over my family’s dogs. I’ve taken care of my coworkers’ animals and my 3 neighbors’ dogs to let them out to the bathroom, feed them, clean their ears/teeth, and give them baths. I’m working part-time Monday-Friday so I have a lot of free time to hang out with some animals!! I’ll be available throughout the week after 12:30pm. I’ll make sure the dogs are always comfortable, loved, and safe! When going outside I’ll keep the dogs on the leash and keep them away from other dogs just in case (unless you want them to interact with other doggies)!
