“Sadie enjoyed her stay with Kaia & Desean…she is a very skiddish puppy and did incredibly well with them 😆 They sent a pic daily with an update, which was greatly appreciated!! We would highly recommend them to take great care of your beloved pet!!”
“We needed someone to watch a very active 1.5yr old Brittany, and we are really picky about who watches our animals. Sandra was recommended and boarding with her and Mark was the best experience ever. Missy’s stay with them was literally a doggy vacation with a Giant yard to play in, long walks, huge professional kennel for her to lounge in, and, picture/video updates every day! They even have a TV in the temperature controlled kennel space so our girl could listen to tv like she is used to at our house. I look forward to using them again. They are a bit of a drive for me but I will use them every time over trying any of the 15 closer results rover showed me. It is well worth the peace of mind knowing that your dogs are being pampered not just boarded.”
“We feel like Laura and Spirit have become pals. Laura treats her like her furry roommate. We plan to leave Spirit with her anytime that it works out. She has a true love for and knowledge of dogs, that is very obvious in talking to her. We would highly recommend her for your dog sitting needs!”
“I will forever be grateful to Katie. While I was giving birth, she watched my dog as normal, but it was able to incorporate, baby blanket and baby crying to help introduce our new daughter to him. I am so blessed that we found her as she is a wonderful human mom and dog watcher. You cannot go wrong with Katie.”
“Leaving Cooper for a full week over the Fourth of July was a big deal for me, but from the very beginning I knew he was in great hands. Kristen welcomed him into her home like he was part of the family and kept me updated every day with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. The best part was seeing how happy and relaxed Cooper was when I picked him up. It was obvious he had been well cared for, loved, and made to feel at home. I never had to worry while I was away, and that is priceless. I would absolutely trust her with Cooper again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of him!”
“Great experience! Our dogs were well cared for, and we appreciated the photos, updates, and the wonderful interaction with them. Thank you for taking such good care of our pets!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ms. Catherine was absolutely wonderful with Francois and Girbaud! From the moment we met her, I could tell she had a genuine love for animals and a calm, nurturing spirit that immediately put the boys at ease. She went above and beyond every step of the way—sending adorable photo updates, keeping me informed, and making sure they were comfortable, entertained, and well cared for the entire time. When I got home, both dogs were happy, relaxed, and delightfully tired—which to any dog parent means they had a great time! It’s clear she gave them plenty of exercise, play, and affection. Ms. Catherine treated them as if they were her own, and I truly appreciate her kindness, patience, and reliability. I can’t recommend her enough. If you’re looking for someone who’s attentive, trustworthy, and genuinely loves what she does, Ms. Catherine is the one. Francois, Girbaud, and I are so grateful to have found her! 🐾❤️”
About: I know every pet is different! I trained my own dog from puppyhood and treat every dog I care for with the same patience, love, and attention! I work from home, so I'm able to give pets lots of attention throughout the day! I only leave occasionally for work estimates, usually for just 1–2 hours, so your pet won't be left alone for long! Whether in my home or yours, I'll care for your pet like my own! I'll follow their routine, provide plenty of love, playtime, walks, and regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away!
“Donald took excellent care of Rani while we were away. He shared updates frequently with photos which our family appreciated very much. He cares for our pet like they are his own. We can tell she was given a lot of love. We have already rebooked Donald for Rani for her next stay, that should say it! Thank you, Donald.”
“Brian, his wife, and his home are the perfect place to board your dog. My dog Cali has felt right at home and couldn't be any more spoiled. The attention, energy, and love she recieved while staying with them couldn't have been more perfect. Their house was immaculate, the yard, and location is perfect. Brian is easy to communicate with and responsive and very flexible. I was going out of town for work and needed a place for my dog and wasn't sure how long I'd be gone. They were helpful and extending was easy. If you're looking for a loving home away from home you don't need to look any farther.”
“I had a great experience with Dominik boarding my two dogs. What stood out the most was that he was willing to take them in at the last minute, which helped me out tremendously and truly meant a lot. From the beginning, Dominik was professional, responsive, and made me feel comfortable leaving my dogs in his care. You can tell he genuinely cares about animals and wants to make sure they feel comfortable. My dogs were well taken care of, and I appreciated knowing they were in good hands while I was away. Finding someone dependable to trust with your pets is not always easy, but I would absolutely recommend Dominik to anyone looking for reliable and caring boarding services.”
“Kimmey is absolutely amazing! I was nervous with this being my first time away from my dog, but Kimmey made it easy to enjoy my time away with family knowing that my dog was receiving the best care. She frequently sent updates on how my dog was doing and took care to pay attention to my dog's individual enrichment interests and needs. My dog had a blast and she misses Kimmey and her wonderful family already! I highly recommend booking with her!”
“Heather is amazing! Super welcoming and friendly. She was really prompt responding before and during the sitting. We got pictures without having to ask and our pup was obviously well taken care of. She’s highly qualified, would definitely use her services anytime and highly recommend!”
“Allie was amazing! My little buddies were well taken care of, and that can be hard with three dogs with very different personalities. She took care to give updates and photos. I highly recommend”
“Rebecca was awesome!! First time using rover and was fortunate to find the best sitter in our area. Rebecca has great communication and I can tell Bruno had a great time and was well cared for.”
About: What sets me apart is how intentional I am with each pet. I pay attention to their behavior, energy, and comfort level so they feel safe, not just watched. I’m patient with puppies and can help reinforce routines like potty training and basic commands. I’m also gentle and attentive with senior pets, making sure they’re comfortable and cared for at their pace. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and I keep communication clear so you always know your pet is in good hands! Pet care fits well into my routine since I’m home part-time and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to plan my days so pets get consistent attention, whether that’s walks, playtime, or check-ins throughout the day. When I’m home, I’m present and attentive, and I make sure any time away is planned around the pet’s needs so their routine stays consistent. I prioritize making pets feel comfortable and cared for, not rushed. I have an open yard and leave near the marina. I’m happy to take them to the beach! They love to play in that area.

“Taylor was awesome. She took great care of our cat, Leonard, while we were out of town. She was communicative and sent great pictures. I will absolutely ask her to take care of our pets again in the future.”
About: Though I don't have a cat at the moment, -they would not get along very well with my dogs- I used to have a cat named Ellie and she was amazing. Since then, I have pet sit for cats many times before outside of Rover, so I have plenty of experience with them. I will make it my no.1 priority to make sure yours doesn't get lonely!

“Abby was fantastic! She took great care of our kitty and sent pictures everyday. Our cat loved her and it was evident that she was well cared for while we were gone. Can't wait to use her again!”
“Kailyn was wonderful with my cats. I was nervous about letting someone else take care of them, but she came by the week before my trip to meet them, sent plenty of photos, and spent time playing with them. She respected my oldest cat’s no-pet boundary while still including her through parallel play. She was also very patient and kind when there was an issue with the key. I would absolutely book her again!”
About: Hi! I’m a total cat lover with 5 years of pet care experience, and I absolutely adore getting to know each kitty’s unique personality. Whether your cat is playful and curious or shy and independent, I’m patient, gentle, and happy to move at their pace. I love interactive playtime, cozy cuddle sessions (when they allow it!), and making sure litter boxes, feeding routines, and daily care are perfectly handled. My goal is to keep your cat feeling safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away — and I’ll always send plenty of sweet updates and photos so you can see how they’re doing! 🐾✨
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I’ve grown up with them, and now have 3 of my own! Size does not scare me at all, so I would love to watch your fur-baby! I have a very flexible and open schedule. My schedule changes weekly, but it is always open and flexible! I am never gone for more than 6 hours! I have a fenced in yard, and crating a dog is no problem! They are constantly being watched for their safety! I really just try to match the routine the dog has now, so when they meet someone new, they will still have a constant routine!
“Jonah was amazing and so sweet in taking care of our Charlie! She always sent pictures of him, played with him, made sure his water and food were filled and litter box was maintained so cleanly! Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been around cats for about 10 years and have a deep appreciation for their unique personalities, routines, and boundaries. I understand that some cats are playful and social, while others need more time, space, and patience to feel comfortable. I had a cat named Nacho for 4 years, and that experience taught me how important it is to respect a cat’s independence while still giving them the care, attention, and affection they need. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, giving cats space when needed, and providing calm companionship. My approach with cats is gentle, patient, and observant. I pay attention to body language, mood changes, eating habits, and comfort levels so I can make sure each cat feels safe and cared for. Whether your cat loves cuddles, wand toys, quiet company, or simply needs someone reliable to check in and keep their routine consistent, I’ll care for them with kindness and respect. I know how much trust it takes to let someone care for your pet, and I’ll communicate clearly so you feel comfortable while you’re away.

About: With 10 years of diverse experience, I’ve cared for puppies, seniors, and exotic pets. I’m very patient, reliable, and studying veterinary science for added expertise. Pet care is a natural part of my routine. I balance it with school, while working part time, making time daily to give pets the attention and love they need. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, fenced backyard and a loving family that adores them. In clients’ homes, I follow routines and provide attentive care.
“Really nice folks and great fence in setup. Less than 12 hour notice and they said yes to watching our girl for the day while we rafted and ziplined throigh whitewater express. Next time we pass through there’s fun activities and good people we’ll trust again”
About: I have cared for animals my whole life. I've taken care of them when abandoned by the mother, sick, or disabled. I have experience doing basic training. My own pets pile on me the second I sit down. I've never had a pet pass the rainbow bridge before the age of ten. I love animals so much and I will love yours too! **** I like to send many pictures and updates. Please do not feel obligated to reply to each one. Dont worry, I know you are busy**** Taking care of animals is all I want to do. I am a stay-at-home mom and my youngest is 16. I have plenty of time on my hands and love. I have fully fenced yard in a safe neighborhood. I have a pug of my own who doesn't mind other animals. I usually keep him in the bedroom for the first couple hours. I have two inside/outside cats who are also very friendly to people and animals. If I am sitting cats and dogs together, I will usually keep the two separate. Cats upstairs and dogs downstairs. Don't worry about attention. There is plenty to go around! If I'm caring for your babies at your house, I will follow the rules you provide.
About: Our dogs have always been family and I can't recall any time in my entire life when I haven't had a dog at my side, sometimes two or three. I've had dogs of all sizes and energy levels. The longest boarding was for two months while the pup parent traveled in Asia. I've had dogs on my small ranch in NV and we rode trails together. They moved with me to CO and we enjoyed the mountains and front range together. I drove cross-country many times with my dogs, stayed in hotels and visited friends and family with them. My dogs are always a priority in all we do and I will care for your pups as I do mine. Be assured that I will follow any special instructions you give to provide your pet a safe, happy, stress-free stay. I recently rescued a deaf puppy who was in the middle of the road, and took care of her until a new, loving home was secured. I checked on her later and she is happy with her people and dog family. I am retired and always home. I spend my days gardening, cooking, squirrel and bird-watching, helping at church, and making greeting cards. My two dogs are with me the entire day. We will give your pup lots of company and love. I prefer to sit for one client at a time and max two dogs at a time. I look forward to meeting you and your pups. It's a good day any day that you meet new friends with fur. They bring joy to life. I have a 1/2 acre and a huge fenced yard for play and romping. Your dog will not be put outside for any length of time without my oversight. I am frequently out in the yard, relaxing, weeding, planting and pruning. Safety is number one and focused, pleasant care are my priorities. I want to be sure that the pups have my undivided attention. My two small dogs and I will give your pup lots of company assuring that he or she is acclimated and gets to know us. Our home is comfortable and happy. Does your pup enjoy endless belly rubs? Mine do and I have plenty to share. I prefer to sit for one client and max two dogs at a time. Photos of your pup's day are provided, if requested. I feed my dogs twice a day and give them one treat after their meals. I will feed your dogs at the time of day you prefer. We will only give your pup treats that you provide. I will follow your feeding schedule and administer meds if needed. My early career was 20 years as a hospital clinical laboratory scientist and then as a director. I've medicated my dogs and horses and given shots, so I know all the techniques needed to administer meds for your dog. Be assured, I recognize a dog's body language if in pain, stressed, or sick and will notify you immediately of any serious issues. I will follow your instructions if vet services are needed. My senior dog, Vivvie requires a special diet, so I make homemade dog food, veterinarian approved. No table scraps for her or for dogs in my care.
About: I have over 15 years of experience with all types of animals. I have a deep affection for animals and understand the importance of their well-being. Whether it’s a playful dog or a curious cat, I always take the time to understand their unique behaviors and needs. I am attentive and patient, ensuring they feel comfortable, loved, and secure. For pet owners, knowing that I can offer reliable care provides peace of mind—whether it’s a quick check-in, a thoughtful response to any concerns, or simply understanding how to make their pets feel at ease. My love for animals is grounded in the belief that pets deserve kindness, respect, and consistent care. I focus on building a trusting bond with each pet so they feel comfortable and safe in my presence. For pet owners, this trust is invaluable—it means you can leave home knowing that your furry friend is not just in good hands, but in the hands of someone who genuinely loves and cares for them as if they were my own. I will be taking this position fulltime ensuring exercise and playtime, feeding and medication routine, rest and comfort. Incorporating pet care into my daily and weekly routine ensures your pet receives consistent attention, love, and the appropriate level of care to keep them healthy, happy, and safe. Your pet’s well-being is always a priority, and my routine revolves around meeting their physical, emotional, and social needs. My home is pet-proofed to ensure there are no hazards, such as toxic plants, sharp objects, or unsafe areas that your pet could access. All windows and doors are securely closed or locked to prevent any escapes, and I always monitor pets closely when they’re outside to ensure they’re safely contained. Your pet will have a designated, cozy sleeping area that is safe and comfortable, whether it’s their bed, crate, or a spot they’re familiar with. I will ensure that this area is free from distractions and potential dangers, allowing them to rest peacefully and securely. I’ll keep your pet’s daily routine consistent, including feeding times, exercise, and rest. If they’re on medication or need specific care, I will ensure they receive the correct dosage at the right times. Sticking to their usual routine helps minimize stress and makes them feel more at home in my care.

They are extremely spoiled, and I love them dearly. I would definitely extend this love towards a client's pet because I love animals, no matter the size or species!
“Top notch! Our 1 year old Boxer loved his stay with Allison and Regan and their pups. The next day he was missing all his friends and, from the pictures, it’s evident that he received plenty of cuddles and playtime.

While we currently are a pet free home, we have been thankful to have owned and cared for a black lab, yorkie poo (lived until 15), two German Shepards (currently guard dogs in Haiti), rabbits and many goats. While your pet is with me you will receive multiple updates and feel secure in the fact that they are being loved and taken care of just as you would! I would love the privilege to care for your beloved dog while you are away! I am a stay at home homeschool mom and have the ability to care for your animal all day. It is so fun to incorporate dog walks and playtime with your animals in my daily schedule. I can easily crate your fur baby, or they can sleep in a comfy dog bed. We have a large yard, with a small portion fenced. Since we are a homeschool family, we spend a lot of time out doors and I love to take dogs for walks and let them join us outside if that is what your fur baby enjoys. If you need help with drop in services at your own home, I can arrange those services to meet your dogs needs.

“Heather was absolutely phenomenal! From the moment I dropped my dog off, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. She was warm, friendly, and so communicative throughout the entire day. I received regular updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease and made me feel connected while I was away. My pup had an amazing time playing and clearly felt right at home in her care. It’s easy to see how much Heather loves what she does, and that energy really shines through. I’ll definitely be booking with her again—highly recommend her doggy daycare services to anyone looking for a safe, fun, and loving environment for their pets!”

And on the days I go into work (depending on which shift I’m working), usually half of my day is wide open, as well! I am able to travel to your home and check on and/or walk/exercise your pet. I am also capable of house-sitting, if needed! We can discuss more specialized services you may be needing for your pet, as well (senior, special needs, etc).
About: I have always loved animals. I started walking my neighbors dog when I was 15. I have dog sat for many ranging from family, friends, neighbors, and mutuals. I am a recent Auburn grad and do not currently have a full time job. Not many jobs offer me a flexible schedule like this does and I am trying to save money and keep my self busy post-grad. I am always available unless otherwise noted on my calendar. I do not have a dog in Auburn, only when I travel to Foley to stay with family is there a dog in the house. I will abide by the owners preferences but I don’t promise I won’t fall in love with your dog. I love all shapes and sizes of dogs and will take care of them as they are my own. I will give your dog as much attention as he or she wants.
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life — all 24 years of it. From the moment I was old enough to pick up a food bowl, I was right there helping to care for them. That means over two decades of feeding, walking, playing, and loving dogs of all shapes and sizes. For me, caring for dogs isn’t just a job — it’s second nature. During the day I work, but I have the flexibility to step away and check in on any pets in my care. Evenings are generally when I’m most available, so your pet will have plenty of attention and company after hours. I treat every pet in my care like they’re my own family dog. Your pet won’t just be looked after — they’ll be loved, spoiled, and made to feel right at home.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I’ve grown up with them, and now have 3 of my own! Size does not scare me at all, so I would love to watch your fur-baby! I have a very flexible and open schedule. My schedule changes weekly, but it is always open and flexible! I am never gone for more than 6 hours! I have a fenced in yard, and crating a dog is no problem! They are constantly being watched for their safety! I really just try to match the routine the dog has now, so when they meet someone new, they will still have a constant routine!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 5 years as I have three dogs of my own, so I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine. I’ve helped care for family and friends’ pets by walking, feeding, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I’m patient, dependable, and love spending time with animals. Whether your dog needs a quick check-in, a long walk, or some extra attention and playtime, I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and cared for as if they were my own. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, or special needs. I’m in college but I have plenty of time to care for your pups! I’m available for drop-in visits and dog walks throughout the week and will do my best to accommodate your pet’s normal routine. I know consistency is important, and I’ll make sure your pup gets the care they deserve! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I have three dogs of my own and understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. During visits and walks, I’ll carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and any special needs. I’m happy to send photo updates during each visit so you know your pet is doing well! I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect that I would expect for my own family.
About: I’ve been taking care and looking after dogs as long as I can remember! I’ve had friends and family rely on me to care for their fur babies! I always make sure they are comfortable and well entertained to the point they enjoy their experience! Every fur baby is cared with intention. I’m currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty availability for the pups!! I’m available for boarding during the weekend and weekdays! I currently live in an apartment! All pets will need a crate! I also have a lovely fur baby to keep company with your fur baby!!
About: I have many years of experience in pet ownership and caring for other’s pets! I also have experience in caring for rabbits and other small animals! I am currently a college student with another part time job (in animal care), so every day’s schedule differs. Please contact me to see where I can help! I offer drop-in pet care, so that could include me taking your pet on a walk, cleaning your pet’s litter box, feeding and watering them (of course!), or any other everyday activities!
About: I bring hands-on experience from working in both kennels and animal shelters, where I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all breeds and temperaments. My time in these settings has taught me the importance of routine, trust, and compassion. I also have a unique skill set in caring for exotic animals, making me versatile and prepared for any type of pet. Whether it's a playful puppy, a senior dog needing extra attention, or any other kind of pet that requires specialized care, I’m ready to provide the best care for your furry (or scaly) friend! As a college student on a pre-vet track, I’m used to balancing a busy schedule while still making time for animals. I have multiple availability blocks throughout the week, which makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my routine. I’m organized and plan ahead, so I can make sure pets get consistent care whether that’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or check-ins. Caring for animals is already a big part of my life and future career goals, so I naturally prioritize it in my day-to-day routine. I care for pets by treating them like family and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their usual routine for meals, walks, and playtime so they stay comfortable in their own environment. I’ve had many pets of my own over the years, so I understand how important it is to give them not just the basics like food and water, but also attention, patience, and affection. Every pet has their own personality, and I enjoy getting to know what makes them feel most at ease.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs half of my life. My great grand dad taught me everything about dogs and he trained them while I was his student. I have sat with dogs often mostly when veterans get sick and I care for their fur babies. I also have 4 dogs of my own 3 boxers and one terrier. I will walk them bath them feed them and play with them. I’m a retired vet I have plenty of time on my hand unless it’s a doctor appoint I have to go to! I’m ready for your pups! I will come to client house and feed them walk them play with them and whatever my clients ask of me to do. I follow every detail that’s given

“Abby was amazing at taking such great care of Doogie & Otto on their twice-a-day walks while I had to travel for work. Having one 2 year old and one 12 year old makes the walks a challenge, and she managed to strike the right balance to make them both happy! Additionally, the little extras she did like checking that the litter box was clean, was so helpful! We definitely would recommend Abby to care for your pets, and we definitely plan to use her services over and over!”
About: Experienced, trustworthy and organized dog and cat sitter who’s cared for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies/kittens to sweet seniors. I had a dog for 9 years and currently help care for my roommate’s 3-year-old cat. Whether your pet is high-energy pets or a total couch potato, they’ll get lots of love and attention! My schedule is what works best for you! I'm currently home from college for the summer with a very open schedule so i'm willing to be very flexible!

Your pet’s safety, and your home’s, is my top priority. I’m dependable, respectful of your space, and always make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for during visits and walks.
About: In high school, I worked locally as a dog daycare attendant, a pet boarding attendant, and a veterinary assistant, so I have plentiful experience working with dogs of different types and temperaments in professional settings. I frequently pet sit for family and friends, so I have experience in a less-formal setting too. I also have a pet cat, dog, and fish of my own. I am working part-time in a wildlife rehabilitation setting, so I am happy to fit dog walking and drop-in visits in my schedule when able. I have experience administering oral and intramuscular medications, adhering to routines, and following strict dietary requirements for animals, so I am eager to follow instructions and give the proper care that your pets deserve. I strive to treat all animals with respect, compassion, and attentive care.

“Sadie enjoyed her stay with Kaia & Desean…she is a very skiddish puppy and did incredibly well with them 😆 They sent a pic daily with an update, which was greatly appreciated!! We would highly recommend them to take great care of your beloved pet!!”
“We needed someone to watch a very active 1.5yr old Brittany, and we are really picky about who watches our animals. Sandra was recommended and boarding with her and Mark was the best experience ever. Missy’s stay with them was literally a doggy vacation with a Giant yard to play in, long walks, huge professional kennel for her to lounge in, and, picture/video updates every day! They even have a TV in the temperature controlled kennel space so our girl could listen to tv like she is used to at our house. I look forward to using them again. They are a bit of a drive for me but I will use them every time over trying any of the 15 closer results rover showed me. It is well worth the peace of mind knowing that your dogs are being pampered not just boarded.”
“We feel like Laura and Spirit have become pals. Laura treats her like her furry roommate. We plan to leave Spirit with her anytime that it works out. She has a true love for and knowledge of dogs, that is very obvious in talking to her. We would highly recommend her for your dog sitting needs!”
“I will forever be grateful to Katie. While I was giving birth, she watched my dog as normal, but it was able to incorporate, baby blanket and baby crying to help introduce our new daughter to him. I am so blessed that we found her as she is a wonderful human mom and dog watcher. You cannot go wrong with Katie.”
“Leaving Cooper for a full week over the Fourth of July was a big deal for me, but from the very beginning I knew he was in great hands. Kristen welcomed him into her home like he was part of the family and kept me updated every day with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. The best part was seeing how happy and relaxed Cooper was when I picked him up. It was obvious he had been well cared for, loved, and made to feel at home. I never had to worry while I was away, and that is priceless. I would absolutely trust her with Cooper again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of him!”
“Great experience! Our dogs were well cared for, and we appreciated the photos, updates, and the wonderful interaction with them. Thank you for taking such good care of our pets!”
About: I know every pet is different! I trained my own dog from puppyhood and treat every dog I care for with the same patience, love, and attention! I work from home, so I'm able to give pets lots of attention throughout the day! I only leave occasionally for work estimates, usually for just 1–2 hours, so your pet won't be left alone for long! Whether in my home or yours, I'll care for your pet like my own! I'll follow their routine, provide plenty of love, playtime, walks, and regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away!
“Donald took excellent care of Rani while we were away. He shared updates frequently with photos which our family appreciated very much. He cares for our pet like they are his own. We can tell she was given a lot of love. We have already rebooked Donald for Rani for her next stay, that should say it! Thank you, Donald.”
“Brian, his wife, and his home are the perfect place to board your dog. My dog Cali has felt right at home and couldn't be any more spoiled. The attention, energy, and love she recieved while staying with them couldn't have been more perfect. Their house was immaculate, the yard, and location is perfect. Brian is easy to communicate with and responsive and very flexible. I was going out of town for work and needed a place for my dog and wasn't sure how long I'd be gone. They were helpful and extending was easy. If you're looking for a loving home away from home you don't need to look any farther.”
“Heather is amazing! Super welcoming and friendly. She was really prompt responding before and during the sitting. We got pictures without having to ask and our pup was obviously well taken care of. She’s highly qualified, would definitely use her services anytime and highly recommend!”
“Allie was amazing! My little buddies were well taken care of, and that can be hard with three dogs with very different personalities. She took care to give updates and photos. I highly recommend”
“Rebecca was awesome!! First time using rover and was fortunate to find the best sitter in our area. Rebecca has great communication and I can tell Bruno had a great time and was well cared for.”
About: I have lots of experience caring for friends and family’s pets when needed. This includes walking, playing, feeding, washing and staying with overnight! I aim to make the experience as perfect for the animal and owner as possible! I am currently a student at Auburn University but have a very flexible schedule. I am free all day Monday, Wednesday and Friday as well as weekends! Tuesdays and Thursdays I can check in with an animal before 11am and after 3pm! I currently live in a 3 person house with plenty of side walk trails for walking. I live with two friends who also have pet watching experience so this wouldn’t pose an issue! I do not own a crate or dog bed here so that would be the only barrier if boarding was needed unless you could provide those for temporary use!
“Korol was an amazing sitter for our senior dog. She walked and played with our dog every day and it was clear that she gave our girl lots of love. It was the first time our dog seemed to really enjoy staying with a sitter. 5 stars!”
“Mary Michelle was the absolute BEST! She sent multiple photo updates every day full of walks, snuggles, and playtime. I have a 5 month old puppy and was nervous about leaving her, but she was happy, calm, and brushed and clean when I picked her up!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience caring for and training my own pets. I grew up with two dogs and a cat, and now that I live on my own, I have two cats and a dog of my own. I personally trained my dog, so I’m comfortable working with basic obedience, reinforcing routines, and helping pets learn through patience and positive reinforcement. I understand that every pet has a different personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to get to know what makes each animal feel safe and happy. Whether I’m caring for an energetic puppy, a playful dog, or a more independent cat, I’m attentive to their individual needs and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m also comfortable maintaining feeding schedules, administering basic care, keeping pets active and entertained, and giving them plenty of attention and affection while their owners are away. I am recently post-grad and work as a server full time. My schedule is very flexible and my availability is open across the week! We are closed on sundays as well! I ensure a safe and happy environment for your pets to have a fun time whilst making sure theyre staying active and playing all the time!
