“Another wonderful job by Amanda! Our elder dog Chelsea was getting over not feeling well and Amanda cared for her like she was her own. She gave lots of feedback and pics. Showered our Chelsea Girl with attention. Will book again!”
“Michelle stayed in our house with our dogs while we were away for 9 days and sent happy pictures, kept us informed, left my house just as she found it and was just very thoughtful. Can’t say enough how much easier it is to enjoy your vacation when you know your pets are in such good hands.”
“Kathy knows her business and has a natural connection with dogs. Our little Chihuahua mix is very shy with strangers, but Kathy gave her a "massage" that immediately won her over. We were very comfortable knowing Kathy was taking care of our dog and two cats for the holidays. Highly recommended.”
About: I absolutely love animals!! I had a Schnauzer named Loki but he ran away. I decided I wouldn’t have another puppy, but I’ve been having a blast watching other people’s dogs. It’s kind of like a fun uncle type of situation I’ve been thriving on lately. I have tons of experience watching and handling animals. Since my youth, I’ve been in love with nature. I even became an Eagle Scout! I’m passionate about animals and all life in general. I even thought about becoming a vegan, but that’s another topic of discussion… I’m attending in-person classes at University on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10AM to 3PM. Also, I teach Yoga at POSE Studios on Mondays at 5:30PM. There’s still tons of availability though because my days start early. I’m available: Mon. 6AM to 4:00 / 6:30PM to 10PM Tues. 6AM to 9AM / 3:30PM to 10PM Wedn.. 6AM to 10PM Thurs. 6AM to 9AM / 3:30PM to 10PM Fri. 6AM to 10PM Sat. 6AM to 10PM I am very communicative and attentive, so you can expect multiple text messages with updates on how your puppy is doing. Expect mini photo shoots!
“Kelly was a pleasure! We met in advance for her to meet the fur babies, which I really appreciated. She helped watch 3 of our animals, one being a senior English bulldog that needs extra care and it was comforting to know while my husband and I were away, they were in good hands. They loved her! Which is also comforting! Thanks Kelly!! :)”
“Kim is awesome! I felt 100% comfortable leaving my pup knowing he was with her. She clearly both loves and understands dogs and is reliable, a good communicator, and lovely to deal with. I came home to a happy and well cared for dog. Thank you!”
“We had Sonnie of the duo stay at our house with our pups and we’ve never come back from vacation before and had the dogs been so relaxed. Sonnie did such a phenomenal job caring for our animals and our house. We felt incredibly comfortable leaving them in Sonnie’s care after two pre-vacation visits where our pets simply could not get enough of Sonnie. Sonnie showed kindness and understanding, sent us daily updates and pictures. I would definitely hire Sonnie again when we go away or just to let the pups out or walk them when we have a long day away. Thanks so much Sonnie!”
“Staci is a phenomenal dog sitter! She stayed at our place for a whole week and watched two of our pups, one of whom is really quite a challenge. He has health issues and an attitude and Staci was able to accommodate his needs. Thanks to her we were able to take our first vacation together in three years!!!”
About: Hi! I'm Cat, and it is my literal pleasure to care for your dog, cat, lizard, bunny, or parrot! What you can expect from me: -Fast, clear, and concise executive-level communication. -Deep breed-specific knowledge of behavior underpinned by my time as a vet receptionist -High quality photos -Easy, flexible scheduling -Complete focus and attention to detail -Genuine joy and enthusiasm to care for your pet In my previous life, I was a design program manager within corporate tech (Meta, Comcast, Pinterest), and I'm thrilled and privileged to pivot into pet care. I have cared for dogs of every size, flavor, and temperament. I have extensive experience training dogs, and quite frankly, I've watched a whole lot of Westminster dog show. In particular, I have specialized experience with shy or nervous dogs and will provide them the space and understanding needed to relax and feel comfortable. I am happy to walk or jog to help burn canine energy. Not afraid to get down in the dirt and play! I have been deeply involved in cat rescue since 2020, when I began working remotely. I have fostered dozens of cats over the years. This includes kittens with complex medical issues. I am very capable at medicating cats and kittens as well as identifying when a cat may be feeling unwell. When you board with me, your pet will not be left alone for more than 1 hour. I only board pets from one household at a time and provide dedicated personal care. When your baby is at my house, they are family. Feel free to reach out with any additional questions. I'm currently working remotely doing project-based contract work, so I have plenty of availability and scheduling flexibility. If boarding or house-sitting, I will be fully available and no pet will be left alone longer than an hour. I have a friendly chihuahua mix (8 lbs) and 2 cats, but if needed, I have plenty of room to give everyone their own space. I have an unfenced backyard with plenty of room to romp. Dogs will always be leashed or tethered in yard.
About: I’ve always possessed a deep love for animals and have grown up around pets my entire life. I have several years of hands-on experience working at a grooming salon, where I assisted with bathing, feeding, and caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I’ve also volunteered at local animal shelters, which helped me better understand dog behavior, body language, and each pet’s unique emotional needs. I’m patient, dependable, and committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I would be honored to care for your furry family member like they’re my own! 🐾 I recently graduated and am taking a gap year, pursuing additional courses as an aspiring physician assistant and working part-time in healthcare. My schedule is very flexible throughout the week, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and care to your pets. I’m generally available most weekdays and weekends, except Thursdays. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always take the time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and needs to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m attentive to body language, feeding schedules, medications if needed, and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free in their own environment. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind.
“Gerri is fantastic with our little pug! We have no worries at all and feel completely confident and secure with leaving Bourbon with Gerri in our home. She's extremely kind and personable, communicates and sends photos often. Highly recommended!”
“Melanie and Anthony are absolute gems as pet sitters and house guests. They are so kind and caring- both towards animals and towards us humans - taking great care of all of us during their stay. They sent lovely photos of our pets being adored and living their best lives in our absence and they took great care to be respectful about my needs as a person with Celiac disease, even leaving extra GF staples for me and cleaning the house! They are truly great humans and we feel so lucky to have found them. Booking them again ASAP!!”
About: I have grown up around animals my entire life and have had Bernese Mountain Dogs since I was born, including having three Bernese at one time. Caring for large dogs has given me extensive experience with feeding schedules, walks, grooming needs, exercise, and providing attentive care. In addition to dogs, I have also raised two bunnies and two hamsters, giving me experience with small animals and understanding the importance of patience and gentle care. Currently, I care for one Bernese Mountain Dog, one bunny, and two French Bulldogs. My lifelong experience with both large and small pets helps set me apart as someone who is comfortable, reliable, and genuinely passionate about caring for animals. I’m currently home for the summer from college so most of my days are free. I am currently working part time, two days a week at night. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In both my home and a client’s home, I follow feeding schedules carefully, provide fresh water at all times, give pets plenty of exercise and attention, and make sure they have a clean environment. I am experienced caring for both large and small animals, so I understand that each pet has different needs and personalities
“I recently used Tricia for the first time for two nights of pet sitting with my senior chihuahua, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! She was incredibly professional, attentive, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. She took such amazing care of my dog and kept me updated the entire time with thoughtful messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It meant everything knowing Winnie was in such good hands. I will absolutely be using her services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”
“Shannon was such a great sitter. The pups took an instant liking to her. She was excellent at communicating and keeping me updated. I certainly will book her again should the opportunity arise. Highly recommend! Thanks Shannon.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for 8+ years. My experience includes puppies, full grown dogs, elderly dogs, kittens, & full grown cats. I also have experience in making sure they receive any medications they may need to take. I work remotely, so I can/will be at the house all day, making sure your fur babies are not alone for hours on end and getting plenty of love and attention. I am a very clean house guest. I clean up after myself as well as the animals and respect any boundaries the homeowner may put in place. I make sure to clean the kitchen & bathroom before I leave and will even wash/change the sheets on the bed if requested. ***Please note that I require a meet & greet with you and your pet(s) prior to the care starting***
About: I have grown up with different dogs my entire life. My best friend was a Rottweiler named Sampson and I had him from a pup. I create trained him as well as click trained him to become a good citizen. I have experience with large breeds as well as small. I have cared my many fur babies in this own homes, keeping them happy with conversation, brushing, play time and long walks. I feel that all breeds deserve love regardless of the negativity they may get from others who don't understand the breed. I have owned pitbulls and have found them to be loyal and loving and don't judge any animal. I have experience training my own dogs as well as freinds and family. I'm currently working PT as a home health aid and have flexibility and free time Tuesday through Saturday to walk and hangout with your beloved fur baby. I would come to your home and watch your dog, take them for a walk, snuggle, feed, play, brush and engage them with conversation and provide them love and support.
Terryville pet parents share their Rover experiences
Emma and Trent were amazing sitters. They took great care of my senior dog which meant tricking him into taking medication. Emma took him on adventures to the tulip festival and softball game which by the photos she sent I could tell he was so happy. She also won over our skittish cat who is usually afraid of strangers. Best of all we came home after 10 days to a pristine house. Thank you Emma and Trent!
Alexa is a diamond in the rough. While hesitant, having never used Rover nor had someone other than immediate family watching Buddy, and with a trip closing in, Alexa came in the clutch and went beyond and beyond my expectations for my nearly 17-year-old senior Buddy. One to two years ago, Buddy would have been a breeze to watch. Now, his hind legs, mind, and bladder (no accidents for over 16 years) aren't the same as before, and he requires more attention. Alexa provided that attention, and some. Cleaning up his accidents, picking him up onto the couch or bed (he refuses to sleep anywhere else), letting him out as soon as she could, hanging out with him outside, cleaning up after herself and Buddy, following guidelines, and way more than I can fit in this review. Alexa is very communicative too, providing updates and pictures. All in all, Alexa rocks, and I'm happy I found someone who cares just as much about Buddy as I do. Book her, you won't regret it!
Paul watched our two new rescue German Shepherds for an overnight when we went out of town after only having the dogs for 2 weeks. It was such a relief to find someone close by who is a GSD lover. Both dogs took to Paul & his wife immediately. We loved getting photo and video updates while we were away from our new fur babies!
Louis was amazing! He took great care of Scooby while I was away, sending me regular updates and photos. Scooby seemed to really enjoy his company, and I appreciated the extra attention and love he received. The communication was great, and I felt confident leaving Scooby in louis’s care. I would highly recommend Louis to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. Thanks again for taking such great care of Scooby!
Jessica did a wonderful job caring for both our pups and our Rabbits. She kept us updated regularly and stepped up when Roscoe got sick and needed extra bathroom breaks. We truly appreciate how she cleaned up after all the animals and even washed the rugs that Roscoe had accidents on. We will definitely be booking with her again.
I’ve used Alexis multiple times to take care of my three dogs, each with their unique personalities. She consistently does an excellent job while we’re away. Alexis is always professional and respectful of both the dogs and the house. Working with her is always a pleasure!
Kyle watched our lab at our home while we were away for a week. He took great care of our dog and home, sending daily pup pics which were much appreciated. He was easy to communicate with and reliable. I would definitely recommend him and would book him again. Thanks Kyle!
