About: I can’t remember a time when I didn’t have an animal in my life. From shepherds to terriers, I have experience with large, medium, and small dogs. I also have experience caring for cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve trained my own dogs, cared for foster puppies, and have experience handling pets with different needs and temperaments. I’m very open to feedback, learn quickly, and always strive to provide the best care possible. When you book with me, you can expect meaningful, attentive, and reliable care for your pet. Your fur baby will have my full attention, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times. Rain or shine, I will show up and give every pet the patience, attention, and care they deserve! Over the summer I am working fully from home. Which means I have an open schedule to care for your pets. I am open from morning to night. I can do daily visits, weekly visits, and more. When house sitting for your pets, I prioritize a respectful and responsible approach. I value clear boundaries in my own life, so I make it a point to treat your home and privacy with that same high level of integrity. I’m fully open to your specific rules and feedback, and I’ll keep you connected with consistent updates so you never have to wonder how things are going.

Felisha is an absolute GEM 💎 she took such great care of our baby boy Maverick while my Aunt was watching him for us! I believe Maverick even walked better for Felisha then he does for my husband and I 😂 My Aunt couldn’t say enough great things about Felisha and stated ANYONE in the area that needed some help with their pup 🐶 should use her! Thank you so much Felisha we will definitely use you again!

About: What sets me apart is that I have real hands-on experience with animals of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I’ve owned both big and small dog breeds, cared for puppies, and also have experience with senior dogs. Right now I currently own two dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ve also owned cats, ferrets, and other kinds of animals, which has helped me become very patient, attentive, and adaptable to each pet’s unique needs. I truly love animals and care deeply about their well-being, so I always do my best to treat every pet like they are my own. I currently work from home half of the week so I’m available Friday Saturday Sunday Monday all day and Tuesday-Thursday I have less time personally but both my mom and sister work from home so they would still be taken care of by then I have two of my own dogs one is a senior the other one just turned 1! We love animals in this house! And your fur babies would be looked after with the upmost care! I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for whether they are in my home or in a client’s home. In my home, pets have space to play and get exercise since we have a fenced yard, and there is also a football field right in front of us where they can play too. We also take our dogs on walks often, so pets staying with me would get attention, activity, and lots of care. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. That includes feeding them on time, giving them fresh water, taking them on walks, playing with them, and making sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I always try to make pets feel relaxed and cared for while their owner is away.

Melanie does an amazing job with both of my dogs. They come back happy, exercised, and ready to relax which I greatly appreciate. I can tell the dogs love their time with her because they will bark out the picture window begging her to come back for more. Melanie is super attentive and willing to accommodate any schedule changes and additional asks, with excellent communication throughout. Highly recommended, and very thankful I was able to find someone my dogs love so much!

About: I have been surrounded by the love of four paws my entire life between friends or family and my own sweet fur babies (and cute gecko). I have been trusted to care for others’ fur babies from dog walking to pet check-ins over the last 5 years. My love for all animals guarantees exceptional care (and lovings) for your pets! My flexible career schedule gives me plenty of opportunities throughout the week to provide mindful walks, attentive care, and lots of love for your fur baby! I am mindful of my surroundings at all times to ensure there is safety, which applies for your four legged friend as well with my attentiveness for their care.

About: I have watched dogs of all ages I used to live on a ranch and frequently our family friends would go hunting so I had to watch all the animals. Dogs,Cats,Chickens, and horses! The times I am unavailable is 8:30am-8pm Monday through Sunday. I am up very early in the morning so I can do walks or drop ins before 8:30am & after 8pm! I have one cat at home and she’s very friendly she loves cats and especially dogs. I can separate the pets based on what yours needs, friendly or not. My cat is very spoiled and has treats frequently. If you don’t mind I will spoil your pet just as much!

About: I’m a travel nurse who loves dogs! I work in the NICU with babies of all sizes, and love every moment of my job. (I do work nights so I usually start my day a little later than most) I have had a dog since I was 7 years old. One was a westie (lucky), I have also had a biscion (Winston) and a German Shepard (prince)! I love walking and being outdoors, as well as, doing yoga, exploring new cities and I love to travel locally (and internationally)! I have always watched friends and families dogs and cats while they have been away. I have always held animals in a special spot in my heart and understand that your pets are more then just pets, they also are family! I hope to take the best care for you furry family members while you are away! They are in good hands. I take care of my dog daily and work remotely making it easy to step away and love on my pets easily. They are fed twice a day, and go out for a walk once a day with frequent potty breaks You know you’re dog best and I will make sure I take care of your dog like you would. I love to give dogs special attention and follow their lead on what they need in care

About: I have been an animal lover since a young age. I have a three year old puppy that loves other dogs. I have pet sat and boarded many dogs and they were nothing less than spoiled! I live on a lake so if your dog loves the water it will have the time of its life, if not, that’s okay too! I am very active so walks can happen frequently. If you are interested in boarding with me I require that your dog is house trained (exception for puppies because they are learning and I can work with that), good with dogs, and doesn’t mind kids nearby. I currently work at a daycare 3 days out of the week from 8AM-6PM with an hour long break that I will use to spend time with your pet! But, my weekends are completely open! In my clients home I would care for their pets the exact way that they do and how they instruct me to do so! :)

About: I grew up helping train my grandparents’ corgi, and I still help my sister with her dog when she’s at work — letting him out, feeding him, and taking him for walks. So I’m very comfortable around dogs and can care for them when needed. That said, I naturally connect with cats and prefer working with them, so my services are focused on calm, low‑stress cat care. I work full‑time from home, which gives me a very steady routine and plenty of flexibility for pet care. I can easily step out for feedings, litter scooping, or home check‑ins throughout the day. I build visits around your pet’s normal schedule so they stay comfortable and relaxed. Evenings and weekends are usually open, so I’m able to give consistent attention and keep your pet’s routine running smoothly. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress‑free as possible. I handle feeding, fresh water, litter scooping, and any medications exactly the way you outline. I spend quiet time with your cat so they feel comfortable, whether that means playtime, brushing, or simply sitting nearby while they warm up on their own terms. I can also collect mail or some small house stuff as needed!

About: We live in a gated community in Homestead with a fenced in yard. Growing up my family owned various businesses dealing with animals including a kennel, groomer and obedience school. I have been immersed in the dog world since I was a small child. Currently, I have two miniature dachshund who love to go to the beach or lounge around the house. Since we are a military family, I can not have more pets so I decided to start doing rover. My pups are use to being surrounded by dogs and are ready to meet some new friends. I will keep you up to date on your pets day and hope you enjoy photo updates :) I work from home Monday through Friday and am available for doggie daycare + overnights. I can accommodate for dog walking, sitting and weekend care! All surfaces within our house are dog friendly but if desired I am capable of crating dogs. I can assist you with training and can administer medication including pills and shots. My dogs are bell trained and have taught other dogs how to use it to verbalize what they want.

Katie has been walking my two fur babies for a little while now. They can be a handful, but they love her and she is so great with them. No matter what is thrown at her, (one of our leashes broke during a walk) she takes care of it! She keeps me updated daily and sends great pictures! The dogs get their mid day exercise, and they are happy, which makes me happy!

About: I have owned pets my entire life. I can’t think of a time when there hasn’t been a pet in my home. I’ve owned mostly dogs and cats, but I’ve even owned chickens and rats in the past! I use Rover myself when we are out of town, so I know the importance of finding someone you can trust with your pets while you are gone. I currently own 2 German Shepherds, 1 French Bulldog and 2 cats, so I have the day to day experience to care for your pet/pets. I would love to meet and take care of your pets! I currently work from home Monday-Friday, so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I am open to weekdays and weekends. Transportation isn’t a problem either as I own my car. I can care for pets in any type of environment. I find pets love to be in their own home, so my job is to make them feel safe and well cared for while you are away. I can feed them, give treats, administer medicine, clean them, clean up accidents or messes, etc. I have also owned my share of old dogs/cats, so I can provide the gentle care they need.

Katelyn was so gentle and patient with Pippen. He’s a little hesitant to walk with others, even family. But after a house or two down he was on his way. I liked Katelyn’s vibe and her friendly professionalism. Will definitely have her and Pip walk again!
