“We are so grateful that Marilyn took care of our two dogs while we were away for two weeks. She sent to us pictures every day, updated us on their behaviors and even facilitated new medication for one of our dogs. I can’t recommend her more highly. She’s trustworthy and a loving caregiver for our pets. We will be using her again.”

“Rob took very good care of our boy Toby, sent us daily updates with pictures and videos which lowered our anxiety and made our trip more enjoyable. He followed all our instructions to a "T" to keep Toby on track with our daily routine with feeding times, walks and playtime. We would recommend Rob to anyone looking for a live-in dog-sitter to care for their pet.”

“Shannon did an outstanding job, housesitting and taking care of Tate. She was impressive with her quick response, then suggestted a pre-visit to our house and to meet with Tate. She was right on time for the pre visit, also on the first day with Tate, along when she left. The house was spotless when we got home, she took out the trash, I think she did some laundry as well. We will defenitley use Shannon for our future trips out of town. Thank you.”

“Casandra was amazing! I asked her to pup sit last minute over the holiday and she responded promptly and took great care of my dogs! Plenty of updates and pictures while we were away.”

About: I have had a pet for as long as I can remember! From dog, cat, Guinea pig, hamster, bunny you name it! I love animals and I would love to help their parents/owners make their life better by walking them, keeping them company, or just checking up on them while their parents are away. I hate the idea of them being left at home along for too long. I have experience dog sitting for my cousins at their house for multiple days in a row! I have been dog sitting for them for 3 years now:) I am a Graphic designer with a remote role that allows me to choose my hours! I love walking and dogs so I thought why not combine the two while helping others take care of their pups while they away at work:) I would treat them like they were my own dogs:) animals are sweet and they deserve to be treated like our best friends. if they ever got dirty under my care I’d be sure to clean them before they went home!
About: I am semi-retired with lifelong experience caring for dogs. I provide attentive, loving care, including walks, feeding, companionship and medication when needed. I am extremely reliable. I work part-time (two days a week - two 4 hour shifts). Therefore, I am readily available throughout the week for various pet sitting needs. I plan to take care of the pets in their homes and will make sure that the pets feel very comfortable and loved during my stay.
“Megan did a great job watching our dog Rogan this weekend. She sent me updates and pictures. She played with him and walked him. She applied his meds for his skin outbreak as I asked. She really made me comfortable and really cared about Rogan. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again! 5 stars for sure!”

“Brooklyn was excellent with our pups and bird. She was attentive to their needs and provided daily updates and pictures. She accommodated our early return for an emergency. Would not hesitate to use her again. Thank you”

About: Dogs only want to give and receive love. They are, perhaps, Gods greatest creation. I've worked at a Veterinarian office/Doggy Day Care nearly 5 years, caring for all ages and sizes. I volunteer at the Sheriffs Animal Control Shelter in Supply. I believe dogs enrich the lives of the people around them. I've always been able to bond with dogs. A mutual trust has always come easy. They're all beautiful, and people could learn a lot from them. They make me laugh every day. Dogs will always be safe and happy with me watching over them. I wiil provide great companionship and a soft, warm touch while you're away. I guarantee that you will feel completely secure and confident with my abilities to maintain a safe, fun experience for your dog. Having someone you trust to care for your dog is invaluable. I will be that person. We love to be at home. Being on a walk or hanging outside is what we enjoy. I work at a doggy daycare and can fit pet care at home easily. Daily care of our dog is walking, feeding, brushing hair and teeth, love and cuddles, and of course playing games. We love to take our pebbles with us everywhere. We will give the same care to every dog we meet.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and even a pet lizard. Being around animals has always brought me joy, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with love, patience, and attention. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or companionship, my goal is to help your pet feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away! Pet care fits really well into my weekly routine! It is something that I genuinely love doing and am very passionate about. My schedule is incredibly flexible which allows me to be available for walks, drop-ins, and other care throughout the week as needed. I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I follow their normal routines and pay close attention to their needs so they feel relaxed and at ease. I’m careful during walks and visits, and I always make sure pets are supervised and secure. My goal is to build trust with both pets and owners so you feel confident and worry-free while you’re away.
About: I’ve had my dog Chloe since she was a pup, I’ve crate trained her, she knows how to sit, shake, and speak when given a treat. I work full time but willing to work around my work schedule and my days off to take care of your fur baby to feed, walk, potty breaks. I care for my pets with lots of play time, cuddles, love and attention, walks in the neighborhood. I make sure I follow their routine schedule if they have one.

About: I have previous experience working as a dog kennel attendant at Camp Bow Wow, where I was responsible for supervising groups of up to 25 dogs at a time. My responsibilities included cleaning up after the dogs, preventing altercations, playing with and exercising the dogs, and making sure each dog felt comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I closely monitored their behavior, energy levels, appetite, and overall condition to quickly recognize any signs of stress, illness, injury, or discomfort and communicate concerns when necessary. I also have two cocker spaniels at home that I frequently look after, and I regularly pet sit and dog walk for friends while at college in Columbia. I love working with dogs and would love the opportunity to continue doing so while home for the summer. I’m currently working part time, so I’m home for at least half the day and have plenty of time to give your pup attention, walks, playtime, cuddles, treats, and loving care throughout the day. Your dog will be welcomed into a calm, dog free beach house with just me and my sister, filled with beach walks, porch relaxing, poolside lounging, treats, attention, and lots of love.
About: I've been caring for dogs for many years, both through pet ownership and helping family and friends with their pets. Over the years I've owned a Golden Retriever and currently have a high-energy Border Collie, giving me plenty of experience with active dogs that need regular exercise, play, and attention. I've also cared for multiple Golden Retrievers, a Mini Australian Shepherd, and a Lab mix. My experience includes dogs of all ages, from raising puppies to caring for senior dogs, and I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs. During the summer, I have a flexible schedule due to being off from my full-time job, which allows me to accommodate a variety of walking and drop-in visit times. I'm happy to work with your dog's routine and can often provide weekday and daytime availability. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a longtime dog owner and caregiver, I understand the importance of patience, attentiveness, and building trust with every dog. I've cared for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs, and I always tailor my approach to each dog's personality and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, fetch, or a slower-paced outing, they'll receive plenty of care, supervision, and affection while they're with me.
“Stacey was amazing with my boxer, Piper! She is so sweet, very informative, and extremely reliable. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind on my long trip, and she even continued checking on Piper after the visit. It’s clear she genuinely cares about her pets, and I would absolutely book with her again!”

“Jo-Anne is THE BEST! She was very communicative and took time to send thoughtful updates which I really appreciated. In addition to being such a great caregiver to Darla she left my home in immaculate condition which she did not need to do. I look forward to having Jo-Anne back anytime! You will, too.”

About: Hello, and thank you for looking at my profile. My name is Jess and Jason (my husband) and I are full time puppy trainers (they live in our home with us). I'm a Certified Master Dog Trainer in Search and Rescue, Pet Dog Training and Behavior Modification. I offer puppy and dog boarding and for an additional fee, I offer training as well. Jason and I are both Pet CPR and First Aid Certified. We love dogs and specialize in puppy training/boarding. Dog training from my home is my full time job so I'm there to offer lots of walks and free time. I'm also available to get up at night with puppies, who need additional walks. Your pet's safety is our priority. We can tailor our services to what's needed. We live in a gated community, in a quiet, wooded area.
About: I've taken care of animals with many backgrounds including dumped and abandoned animals which can be very difficult at times but I have always been able to break through and care for them accordingly. I can administer medications whether oral or external with ease. I am able to follow instructions and will feed each pet as asked. My animals are well loved and behaved and cared for. You will have no worries under my care. I am quite flexible with my availability. If I am unable to accommodate your request I will kindly decline. I will gladly do early morning and late afternoons. Whatever works best for you and your pets! With 10 plus years of animal care experience including 1 year working as an animal care technician, caring for 100 plus animals 5 days a week. I am able to provide your care requests in a timely manner.
About: Since a child, animals have been my passion. As an adult, I decided to make them my career as well and became a Veterinary Technician 15 years ago. I started pet sitting long before that as a teenager. I feel like I know animals better than I do people sometimes! I really do love giving pets my time and love while alleviating stress for their moms and dads. I’m available just about any time! I may go out of town occasionally but not for long. I’m very accommodating to owners’ needs and wants. If pets stay in my home, I ask that they be ok with cats as I have one blind cat and another cat with a brain injury. They are used to dogs and have not had any problems. Also, potty trained is preferable, but if they need work learning, I can help. I’m easy going and just want your pet to feel at home. When I go to a client’s home, I follow their instructions precisely and will communicate with them without hesitation if need be.
“Ryan was an amazing dog sitter! He was attentive, caring, and kept great communication throughout. My dogs were very comfortable with him, and I felt completely at ease while away. I’d definitely book with him again!”

I cannot recommend Lauren enough! From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease leaving our dog, Picasso, in her care. We were gone for over a week and she was incredibly attentive and followed all of our instructions regarding medications, feeding and walks perfectly. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away and when we came home we could tell our little guy was happy and had been well-cared for. We will absolutely be booking with her again!"

This was our first time using a 2-day house sitter for our two small dogs through Rover and only realized on the first day of service that our expectations for care was different than Krystina's so it caused us some stress and concern. While we did have a meet and greet the week before, we somehow had mixed messages over the type of care we were looking for and she delivered. In the end all was fine and Krystina took great care of our house and our pets and was responsive through texting while we were gone. I would definitely recommend clearly defining your expectations and requesting she defines her expectations prior to care.
