“This was my dogs first time boarding in several years, and she can be very anxious. Finding a place where she can be in a safe and welcoming home environment was a blessing! It was great to have daily feedback on how she’s doing and photos of her time there. It is clear that Emily and her family love dogs!”
“Abbie was great! I had a great experience having my cat stay with Abbie for two nights! She was kind, attentive, and took great care of my cat. I felt completely comfortable knowing my cat was in good hands, and I really appreciated the updates and care she provided. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter!”
“We were so nervous to leave our puppy for two weeks, and Alicia and her family were incredible. Our puppy had summer camp/ dog manners boot camp, and we had peace of mind. She sent photos, communicated clearly, and gave her a great experience.”
“We left our goldendoodle pup with her for a few days while we were out of town and she did so well with him! He loved playing with her pup all day and Trinity made sure to keep me informed of how he was doing :) 100% recommend!”
About: I have trained my dogs for the last 10 years, I have bathed and clipped my dog and cats nails for 10 years, friends and family have relied on me to watch, walk, feed and bathe their pets for over 20 years. I currently am a stay at home mom which allows me to pay more attention to animals in my care. I currently take my dog to the dog park multiple times a week along with walks daily to help keep her active and healthy. Adding your fur friend will be an added bonus for us. I do not have a fenced yard so I prefer to watch them in my clients house, this also helps with the stress the pet may feel with being with a stranger.
About: What sets me apart is the level of supervision, structure, communication, and individualized care I provide for every pet. At Pawshank Redemption, I focus on creating a safe, engaging, and low-stress environment where dogs are not just watched — they are genuinely cared for, entertained, and treated like family. I am home the majority of the time, allowing for near 24-hour supervision, consistent potty breaks, structured routines, enrichment activities, and close monitoring throughout the day. I also provide personalized updates, photos, videos, and fun “court report” style progress updates so owners feel connected and reassured while away from their pets. I have experience working with: - Reactive and anxious dogs - High-energy dogs - Senior dogs needing extra patience and monitoring - Dogs requiring medication administration - Dogs with unique personalities and behavioral needs My background in healthcare has helped me develop strong observation skills, patience, attention to detail, and the ability to remain calm in stressful situations. Safety, cleanliness, routine, and communication are extremely important to me, and I take pride in making sure every pet feels secure, comfortable, and loved during their stay. I also focus heavily on enrichment and preventing boredom through supervised play, mental stimulation, structured activities, and individualized attention — because a tired dog is a happy dog. 🐾 At Pawshank Redemption, we specialize in “breaking dogs out of boredom” while keeping your inmate safe, entertained, and cared for every step of the way.

I am home the majority of the time, which means your “inmate” will receive around-the-clock monitoring, structured potty breaks, playtime, enrichment, and plenty of interaction instead of being left alone for long periods. I maintain a calm but engaging environment where pets are closely supervised, kept on routine feeding schedules, and given individualized care based on their personality and energy level. Whether your dog prefers relaxing, playing, cuddling, or burning off zoomies, I make sure they feel safe, entertained, and cared for at all times.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Taylorville home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Taylorville.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Taylorville sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OR ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
