About: I have had all size dogs since I was 12. I love that they love you unconditionally. I enjoy walking my dogs, and I can't help but laugh when they get the zoomies. I always try to be patient when they are unsure or need to take medicine. I work full time, but I am available in the evenings and weekends. I am available to come to your house to take of your animals needs. Your animal can also come my house for the weekend if needed. Please schedule in advance. I prefer to do a meet and greet, since I also have two rambunctious kids. I have two small sociable dogs that are both fixed. They stay in the kennel when I am at work, but when my husband has a break he will let them out. I have a large backyard that that is fenced in, and my neighborhood has sidewalks to walk dogs. My household is also high energy, but also love snuggle time and belly rubs.
“Renee was awesome!! She took very good care of our two doggies while we were gone for vacation. She was quick to reply and we never had to worrry about our doggies and just truly ejoy our vacation”
“Mackenzie did a fantastic job taking care of my cats! She was always on time and sent me adorable pictures with every visit. One of my cats is very shy and scrambles under the bed when visitors show up, but she grew to trust Mackenzie over a few days. Aside from her ability to take care of pets, she's also a wonderful human being. When my flights got messed up and I had to return a day later than I anticipated, she was very understanding and willing to check on the cats that morning. Highly recommend booking Mackenzie!”
“Having Becky drop in was a game changer for our kitties. They were much happier when we returned home after having dedicated attention and playtime every day. She also took great care of our chickens! We will definitely be rebooting if we decide to go out of town again.”
“Lacy did another fabulous job taking care of our cat! We really appreciate her punctuality, responsiveness, reliability, trustworthiness, daily updates, pictures, and genuine care for our cat! In addition, we extra appreciate her willingness to stay an extra day when our travel plans got derailed because of the weather! It’s worrisome to be away from our animal for longer than expected, but Lacy immediately put us at ease and let us know she would continue to care for our cat until our safe return! We highly recommend Lacy for all of your pet care needs- she is awesome!!!”
“Ashleigh did a great job making sure my boy was taken care of! I’ve never had to leave him home alone for so long before and was very nervous about leaving him in someone else’s care, but from day one she gained my trust. She was awesome at communicating and sending pictures each day. I had a wonderful experience leaving Orlok in her care and will definitely use her again in the future!”
About: **I have base access.** I have a lifelong love for animals and extensive experience caring for cats. I currently have a cat who is almost 10 years old, and my previous cat lived to be an amazing 24 years old, so I understand the importance of providing cats with loving, attentive care throughout all stages of their lives. I’m comfortable with cats of different personalities and understand that some are social and playful while others prefer a little more patience and personal space. I’m happy to provide feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, attention, and plenty of love while you’re away. With my own pets, I’ve learned how important it is to follow their routines and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home.
About: I love animals. I was a former foster pet parent. We ended up adopting. We have adopted three dogs and they are our families world. Can’t imagine life without them. I’m able to help with your pet after my work hours and before my 8 hour shifts at the hospital and on the weekends as needed. Would love to pet sit or walk your animals. I love pets and helping when needed. I usually work 8 hour shifts at the hospital.
“This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous leaving my fur kids with a stranger. I shouldn't have been though, because Miranda was fantastic! She spent extra time and attention on my shy kitties, and kept me updated with every visit. I will absolutely book with her again.”
About: I have experience watching dogs for family and friends, and I enjoy spending time with them and building a trusting relationship. I enjoy interacting with dogs to help them feel comfortable and safe. I’m going into my first year of college, so I wanted to find something flexible that I would enjoy doing and that would work well around my school schedule. I care for pets by making sure they are fed, have water, and are let outside when needed. I also enjoy playing with them and spending time with them so they feel happy and comfortable.
About: I bring real hands-on experience to every pet I care for — not just love, but knowledge: 6 years caring for cats — from playful kittens to senior cats who need medication and gentle routines. I understand body language, behavioral changes, dietary needs, and creating a calm, cozy environment. 5 years with bearded dragons — including proper temperature/humidity care, fresh salads, tank cleaning, supplements, and handling. I’m very comfortable with reptiles and their day-to-day needs. Comfortable with multiple pets, feeding schedules, and custom routines. I’ve also worked with pets needing medication, vet check-ins, and anxiety support — I always follow instructions carefully! Your pet will be treated like family and cared for with experience, patience, and daily check-ins 💛 Pet care is built right into my daily schedule — it’s not something I squeeze in, it’s something I plan around. Every morning starts with feeding, fresh water, and check-ins with my own pets, so I’m already in “pet parent mode” before the day begins. Here’s how I structure my routine: Morning: Feeding, potty breaks, or tank checks for my bearded dragons. I review the schedule for the day and confirm visits/walks. Midday: Drop-in visits, walks, medication if needed, and enrichment/playtime. Evening: Final check-ins, dinner feeding, and overnight care if scheduled. Flexible scheduling – I adjust my day depending on each pet’s routine so they receive care when they’re used to it, not just when it’s convenient. Since I already care for my own animals daily, adding your pet into my schedule feels natural. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own routine and keep communication open with updates, photos, and check-ins — no pet ever feels forgotten or rushed. 🚗 When I Care for Pets in Their Home: I follow your routine exactly — food times, treats, walks, meds, etc. I maintain your pet’s comfort & stability by keeping everything familiar Potty breaks / litter box cleaning Playtime and enrichment activities Fresh water at every visit Can administer medication if needed Clean-up included — no mess left behind Check-ins after each visit so you know how they’re doing --- 🐶 No Matter Where They Are — They’re Treated Like Family I provide love, patience, and care as if they were my own animals. Every visit or stay includes: Photo/video updates Routine check-ins Respect for boundaries & personalities Calm energy for anxious or rescue pets Safety first — always
About: I have experience caring for cats of different ages and personalities through both pet sitting and volunteer work at animal shelters. I frequently care for cats for friends and family, including feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, administering basic care, and making sure they feel comfortable and relaxed while their owners are away. Through my shelter volunteer experience, I became comfortable working with shy, energetic, and independent cats and learned how to create a calm and safe environment for them. I genuinely enjoy spending time with cats and understand the importance of patience, attention, and routine in their care.
About: I’ve had had the privilege of caring for many creatures across my life (dogs, cats, praying mantises, spiders…) and would love to help you care for yours! I’ve had my girl Cally for eight years and it’s been an absolute joy every moment. I’m recently 20 and it’s like she grew up with me! She’s definitely made sure that I’m experienced in cleaning the litter box, providing meals and water on time, and directing playtime.
About: I grew up with cats and fell in love with dogs when I started fostering in 2021. I've volunteered with animal shelters as a cat care specialist and dog walker working with dogs of all sizes, ages, and training levels. Energy, safety, excellent communication, and genuine care are guaranteed on every visit. As a work-from-home freelancer, my schedule is incredibly flexible. Though I travel often on the weekends, ask about availability! I can make any time of day work to suit your fur baby's schedule. I take gentle but firm care of fur babies of all sizes. Your escape artist won't get past me, and your scaredy cat will still get the attention they deserve. I'm experienced in pilling cats and dogs and happy to provide brushing or playtime after their basic needs are taken care of. Fetch is one of my favorite activities in the whole world.

About: **I have base access.** I have years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have five dogs, ranging from 1 to 9 years old and from small to large breeds, and all five have successfully completed the Canine Good Citizen course. I also have a cat who is almost 10 years old, and my previous cat lived to be an amazing 24 years old. Caring for my pets has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, exercise, training, and, most importantly, giving each animal the love and individual attention they deserve. I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs, and I would treat your pets with the same care and attention I give my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I’m a stay-at-home mom and currently only work two days a week, so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. This allows me to be available for pet visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and other care throughout the day. I’m able to work around each pet’s individual routine and give them the time and attention they need while their owners are away. I provide pet care in your home, where your pets are already comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I believe staying in their own home can make your time away much less stressful for them because their routines, food, toys, sleeping areas, and everything they’re used to are already in place. I’ll follow your instructions and your pets’ normal routines as closely as possible, while giving them plenty of attention, playtime, care, and affection. My goal is to make your time away as easy and comfortable as possible for both you and your pets.

I’m very dependable, easy to communicate with, and always happy to work with pet owners to find a schedule that works best for everyone. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your pets and your home, and I always treat each home with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities, and I make sure to follow all instructions carefully to keep them happy and secure. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to creating a calm, safe environment while you’re away, while also keeping your home clean, respected, and well cared for.

Being around dogs isn't just something I do—it's something I've known my whole life. I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, learning their unique personalities, and making sure they feel loved, safe, and happy while you're away. Every dog deserves care that feels like home, and that's exactly what I strive to provide. I currently work Monday-Friday (8am-5pm). I can take care of pets after 5pm and on the weekends. We can arrange timing if needed. Thank you! I have a very spacious loft downtown I can have them in. Also have space for kennels if needed. Lots of parks near by and sidewalks to walk them. I’m also willing to take care of them at the clients residents as well. Whatever is needed for the job at hand!
About: I have had my own cat since I was 4 years old and I grew up caring and watching over her and she is still by my side to this day. Throughout the years I have taken care of other animals within my family and my friends. I have more knowledge and experience with cats but I would love to watch over dogs more often. I have a job at Starbucks and my schedule fluctuates but I get my schedule three weeks prior and I am willing to work with anyone to be sure I can give their animals the care they need. Currently, I am treating my cat of her hyperthyroidism and early signs of kidney disease. I give her her medicine on a set schedule, a full dosage in the morning and a half-dosage at night. And even if work overlaps with that time I am sure to be flexible so I can get to her in time for her medication.
About: I have had pets and cared for others pets my whole adult life. I have cared for, bathed, walked given medicine to fur babies of all ages. I do not have an outside job so my schedule is pretty flexible. I am available to work with most schedules during the week. Contact me and we can make a plan! I have a fenced yard, a doggy door and 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby/babies company. I am ready and willing to take instructions and care for your baby in a way you feel most comfortable. If they need to be crated, I can crate them. Whatever is needed. Pet care is my focus. It is a dogs world in my home and I am home most of the time. I am a home body and try to run the needed errands when I don’t have pups. I have a fenced in backyard with a doggy door so they can go in and out when they want. I have 2 mini dachshunds to keep your fur baby company and they love when friends come over. I put all pups in my room at night with the door closed. I can crate your pup/s, they can sleep on a doggy bed on the floor or sleep on the bed with me…whatever they prefer. I feed pups separately to make sure all pets are safe during feeding time. I have gates on all my bedroom doors so there is plenty of space to separate all.
About: I’ve had had the privilege of caring for many creatures across my life (dogs, cats, praying mantises, spiders…) and would love to help you care for yours! I have two wonderful dogs: Ozzie and Lily. They keep me on a strict schedule for activity time (walks, playing, etc) and feeding. Trust me, they’ve trained me well! I also grew up with two cocker spaniels, Droopy and Floppy, and a German shepherd-beagle mix, Scooby. Every dog has so much character and it’s an absolute joy to learn their unique personalities! My work schedule tends to vary weekly and I can start as early as 9am and leave as late as 9pm, but I am generally available everyday to play with your critters! We can discuss times before booking. I am also a college student with class on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. I care for pets based on their individual needs with insight from their owners. For example, I can trust my dog Lily to behave herself home alone, but with Ozzie, I know I have to provide him a spacious kennel to prevent him from getting anxious and chewing up the carpet. Regardless, I provide them lots of love, playtime, and outside time whether it be a walk or a potty trip. I have a fenced backyard personally and my dogs (and even my cat with supervision) love to spend time out there.
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I grew up on some acreage which allowed my family to be able to house dogs ranging from toy fox terriers to big burly St. Bernard's with all kind of barn/house cats along side them. I have worked as a Veterinarian Assistant for 3 years and continued my animal journey by acquiring an Animal Science Degree. Over the years I have cared for animals on the side to supplement my love for them and now I can finally try for full time under my business Animal Wrangler, LLC! During my time as a Veterinarian Assistant I have gained experience administering several different kinds of medications to dogs, cats, and farm animals. As mentioned in my bio I do farm sit as well. I have cared for horses growing up and have experience with goats, cattle, alpacas, llamas, pigs, and several other exotic animals. Please feel free to send farm inquiries through to me as well. I'm currently a stay at home wife so I am available most of the time as long as I have ample heads up to get you on the schedule. I have experience with a wide variety of animals that have a wide variety of jobs! With the dogs I can provide walks, play time, and even work some working dogs. I do have a vehicle that I can take dogs to parks and places to swim. For the cats I really leave it up to them! I can read cat body language well so I will take the playtime at their pace, if that pace includes walks in the park then I am down to clown.
About: I grew up with cats and fell in love with dogs when I started fostering in 2021. I've volunteered with animal shelters as a cat care specialist and dog walker working with dogs of all sizes, ages, and training levels. Energy, safety, excellent communication, and genuine care are guaranteed on every visit. As a work-from-home freelancer, my schedule is incredibly flexible. Though I travel often on the weekends, ask about availability! I can make any time of day work to suit your fur baby's schedule. I take gentle but firm care of fur babies of all sizes. Your escape artist won't get past me, and your scaredy cat will still get the attention they deserve. I'm experienced in pilling cats and dogs and happy to provide brushing or playtime after their basic needs are taken care of. Fetch is one of my favorite activities in the whole world.

“I highly recommend Roziny! She was absolutely fantastic with our dog, Midnight. We were especially impressed with how she took the time to understand her personality and needs. She was always punctual, reliable, and sent us updates and photos throughout the walk. Midnight loves going on walks with her, and it was clear that she felt safe and cared for. We would definitely book her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker!”
“Lauren was so perfect for us—She watched, walked and took care of Katie, our two year old Golden Retriever, for us for a full afternoon. Lauren was communicated with us perfectly in the booking, was punctual for the meet, was immediately smitten with Katie (and importantly, Katie with Lauren). It was just so wonderful to have a responsible, loving animal lover look after our Katie. I wholeheartedly recommend her for your pet needs.”

“So great! First time boarding my dog so I was nervous, but Jaxx was in great hands. She sent me photos and updates while I was gone. My dog got along great with her pup and they got to play in a fenced in yard and everything! Would take him back there if I went on another trip for sure.”
“Ashtin was an amazing host for our pup! She was accommodating, responsive, and we loved getting the picture updates. Tuck had a blast running around in her backyard and came home a happy, tired pup. We would definitely book with her again!”

After she received a treat and everything was good. Kristen sent clips show she was petting her. I will use Kristen again for Mrs Allie. I got a chance to relax on my trip and not worry about Ms. Allie.”
“Marci was a great sitter for my dog Hank! I could tell from get-go that she’s experienced with taking care of pups and that she treats her pup Sadie amazingly too. She was a great communicator with fast responses, and answered all my questions to make me feel confident about having her watch Hank. Would absolutely recommend and use her again!”
“KK had the best stay with her new animal friends! She played so hard that she mostly napped the rest of the day after I picked her up. Scout was super easy to work with and sent pictures of my girl with updates. Highly recommend!”
“Larry was great! Our dog Buck is on a raw food diet which was no issue for Larry. He sent us regular updates with pictures, and communicated very well throughout our 10 day vacation. He made us feel very comfortable from the time of dropping Buck off to the time of pickup. Will be asking Larry to watch our dogs in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Huge thanks to Loria! I was a first-time Rover user and she made the whole reservation comfortable and easy with daily updates! She was also very cognizant of my dog’s needs, nursing a healing injury. Thanks so much! I would (will) gladly book again!”
“My dog stayed with Samantha and Matthew twice and he loved it. I feel very comfortable leaving my dog with them and am confident he’s well taken care of. They are my first choice when I need a sitter in the future.”

“Thomas has watched my pups for years now! This most recent snowstorm put me in a predicament, needing to be to work days in a row and stuck at the hospital. He kept my pups safe and warm. Very thankful for him!! Highly recommend”
“Amber sent photos every day, and Buster seemed very healthy and happy when I picked him up after a month's stay. Amber clipped Buster’s nail and bathed Buster too. Thank you.”
“Leaving Marley with Rachael gave me peace of mind that she was being taken care of. She kept in touch and sent pictures. I was able to enjoy my trip knowing she was doing well.”
“Once again, Pepper had a great time at Jackie’s house. She always looks healthy and well taken care of when I pick her up. She sees Jackie’s house as a second home and hides when I come to get her because she doesn’t want to leave. I truly believe any pet is lucky to stay here and any pet parent will appreciate the love and care Jackie gives their pet for your peace of mind while you’re away.”
About: Hi, I’m Angie! I’ve been a dog lover and “dog mom” my entire life, and caring for animals has always been a big part of our family. My daughter is in her third year at LSU Veterinary School, and my son is a senior at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville. When he’s home, he loves being my sidekick for walks, outings and dog activities. Dogs really are a family affair around here! I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes and personalities, from energetic dogs and multi-dog households to seniors, rescues and dogs with special needs. I’m comfortable with medications, detailed routines and adapting care to what each dog needs. I’ve also been on the client side of Rover, so I know how important it is to find someone you genuinely trust with your dog. I’ll keep you in the loop while you’re away, so you can relax knowing your dog is in good hands. I love getting to know each dog’s personality and what they enjoy. Whether that’s walks, backyard play, enrichment, a new place to sniff and explore, or just hanging out together, I want their time with me to feel less like being “left with a sitter” and more like spending time with someone they know. I have a flexible schedule and offer walks, drop-ins, daycare, boarding and house-sitting. I keep my schedule intentionally manageable so I can give the dogs in my care plenty of individual attention and flexibility. For Daycare and Boarding, I keep things small and personal rather than caring for a large group of dogs at once. Dogs are part of my day and get plenty of attention, playtime and outdoor time. For dogs who enjoy getting out, I’m also happy to mix things up with walks, enrichment, new sniffing spots or an occasional “field trip”. For house sitting, I follow your dog’s normal routine and get plenty of attention and companionship. My senior Golden, Stella, comes along with me, so I just make sure everyone is comfortable together first.
