“I am so happy that Ashley came to take care of our spoiled little babies. My dog Jack has the worst separation anxiety of any animal that I’ve ever known. He can’t be left alone, he will stress out so much, making himself sick and tearing up and house. Once he even chewed up the brass door knob. Ashley was absolutely wonderful with him, she was so patient and attentive to him. I thought our new Siamese kitten was going to worry her most but he was just playful and happy. All 3 of my animals were so well taken care of, if you need a pet sitter, I highly recommend Ashley. I will use her again and I will recommend her to everyone that I know 🥰”
“We had Ashley house sit for us for the second time and she was great once again. Super responsive and very attentive to our dogs specific needs, and took good care of the house. Would absolutely recommend to anyone!”
“Madison was great! All of my animals seemed happy and well taken care of when I got home and my house looked just like how I left it! All the cute photo updates were awesome to receive!”
“Kara was absolutely incredible! She stayed at my house to watch my dog, Cash, and took amazing care of him and my home. Cash seemed to have an absolute blast. Lots of playtime, attention, and love. I came home to a happy, tired pup and everything in perfect order. Kara’s genuine care and reliability gave me complete peace of mind. I’d trust her with Cash and my home anytime!”
“We knew Elena was a good match during our meet and greet. A polite UH student, in the National guard, who just misses her parents and dog back home. We normally board our dogs and use Rover visits for our cats. This was much less stressful, and affordable. Knowing someone was with the dogs day and night in our own home, it can’t be beat. We came home to a clean house and happy pets, we have been telling all our friends about her. Thanks Elena!!!”
“Julianna has an amazing connection with animals! All my fur and feathered babies loved her. She was very communicative and sent lots of photos and updates. I couldn’t have been more comfortable and confident with leaving my animals with her. She went above and beyond and I would highly recommend her services 💕”
“If you are thinking about booking her ,JUST DO IT!!!. I have been thinking for a year on whether to use Rover for the first time and I'm so thankful I booked Amy.

For the first time I going out of town , I had a peace of mind and was able to enjoy myself fully because she NEVER had me wondering how my fur babies were doing .”
“Ren has an amazing amount of patience with my rescues and the new puppy! Some just like to laze around and others have mass amounts of energy and Ren meets each of them where they are! Already have her booked for more dates!”
About: Hi everyone! A little about me, I have grown up on a 12-acre farm taking care of dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, goats, and even a ferret! Outside of my home I have taken care of dogs, cats, and a turtle. I will be working part time and studying full time so pet care might change depending on the week. I will have opportunity to walk or feed in the afternoons after I finish my responsibilities for the day. Preferably, I will care for your pets in your home as I believe it does not create more stress and allows optimal comfortability. I would love to keep your pet on their regular schedule as best as possible!

About: I have loved animals my whole life. My poodle lived to be 20, and my horse 25. I connect with animals, they can sit in my lap all day and it makes me happy!

I am recently retired and in need of a hobby, and what better hobby than spending time with your fur-babies. My daily/weekly routine is very flexible. I provide a loving and welcoming presence whether boarding a pet, house sitting, or providing a check in. Your pet will have my full attention and all the loving they care to have.

About: Hello! I am a graduate of Mars Hill University and have a degree in criminal justice! I have been a dog owner for 15 years and have 4 dogs and 2 bunnies :) friends and family have relied on me to take care of their fur babies like they are my own and would love to do the same for your babies😊😊 I currently work full time during the week typically getting done at 4:30. I am available for evening check ins or during the weekend when needed:) If I am doing a drop in visit and there is a fence I will gladly play with them! I am also willing to take them on walks with a leash:)
About: We’ve always had pets. We love to spoil them! If you prefer they not be on the furniture or sleep in a crate we can accommodate that, but if you don’t mind they’ll be allowed to lay wherever they’re comfortable. I go into work earlier and my husband goes in later in the day. We are only both gone for a few hours on weekday afternoons. I have a fenced back yard and a 4 year old dog to keep your fur baby company, as well as two dog loving children.
“Victoria is a nice lady and the dogs like her okay. But my roommate said that you did not do what I paid her to do. As in she did not walk the dogs one day and she had a hard time staying at the house if nobody was hanging out with her. If I had wanted to pay her for drop-ins I would have.”
About: Worked animal rescue and rehabilitation as a volunteer. I have never met an animal that didn’t like me. Except Mr.Freckles but that horse hated everyone. We ended up being cool but he wasn’t a great horse for beginners, mr and freckles cool now. More available late afternoon to evenings during the mon-fri week 100% available on the weekends. If any special medications and times are needed I am more than happy to adjust. I treat them all the same with respect and any special needs are welcome and accommodated for. I just genuinely enjoy the company of animals. I want them to feel at home while the parents are away.
“Bayleigh is an amazing dog sitter! She is so responsive, professional, and trustworthy. She has watched my two dogs twice now while I was gone. One time for three weeks and she treated them like her own dogs. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic pet sitter.”
