Personalized care for your dog or cat - Matheson

“Started with a welcoming meat and greet with Michelle and her family. My dogs were surprisingly shy. Their family has rescue experience and are patient and loving and work great with the dogs. During our time away we got photos and updates which were great. One of my dogs had a hurt foot prior to me dropping her off. I had no idea what happened. Michelle and family pampered her and treated her foot with a creme and bandage. Very appreciative for the extra attention. I recommend her and her family for other families and certainly would use her again with my dogs”

About: My family and I use to foster puppies all the time when I was little. We also always had our family husky lab dog. I now have my own Husky who will be carried for at home while I care for yours. have been in the dog sitting business for so long with just friends and neighbors. But I ended up getting this one gig where the lady herself boarded dogs and no joke she had at least 6 dogs one time when she asked me to stay overnight. All had different food and some medication. There were 2 chichas downstairs together. and the other 4 were left lose to sleep with me. I'm looking for jobs now, so I'm pretty open on schedule. So please feel free reach out with the time you want for your animals. I live in a house with 2 other dogs for my Husky to play with. Which I will leave my dog there when im out looking after others, as she has a loving little tribe at home with my roomates and her dog friends. I'm use to my husky needing run alot and having alot of energy so nothing is new for me in that department of dogs. If needed to live in with the dog, then I will fully move in for that time frame so the dog isn't lonely. I love play tug of war and ball with dogs and some cats even have played fetch for me. I love getting cuddles from little furry pets and giving them the love and attention they deserve.

About: Hi there! I’m Mae — a lifelong animal lover with over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and personalities. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them truly brings me joy. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and attention that I would give my own. One thing that really sets me apart is my integrity and reliability. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your beloved pets and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is always to provide peace of mind while you're away, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m very attentive to each pet’s unique personality, routines, and needs — whether that means playtime, cuddles, sticking to feeding schedules, administering medications, or simply providing calm companionship. I’m especially patient with shy or senior pets and always make sure animals feel comfortable and secure. You can expect dependable communication, lots of love for your pets, and a sitter who genuinely cares. I’m happy to send daily updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in great hands. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pets and become someone you can rely on whenever you need care. 🐾

I have experience with friendly cats and not so friendly cats, and I am comfortable around them all!! I enjoy just hanging out with them, or having a play session! Cats deserve love, attention & play time too!

About: I have had animals my whole life, and have always loved taking care of them. I have done a lot of house sitting and animal sitting while growing up. My schedule is constantly changing so i can be available on random days of the week. I have every Sunday off from my current job. I would follow all rules you have for your animals and treat them like my own the whole time they are in my care, I have one dog at home that I love to take care of.

About: Living in a military town everyone needs to make sure their fur babies are taken care of when they need to go into the field or need a little vacation. We treat our dogs like family and will treat your pet the same. I have dog hammocks for car rides, food stands, hard and soft toys, soft pillow dog beds, water proof dog beds, and countless treats. Experience in chicken and rice diets, giving medications, nail clipping / grinding, and cleaning. Hopefully, we won’t have a vet visit while you’re on your Army vacation, but that’s not a big deal if a dog gets sick for whatever reason on our watch. Just make sure that you have your vet information saved in your bio because if there isn’t any information we might take them to a vet they aren’t comfortable with. We have extra collars and harnesses for walks to the park, but we recommend bringing their own. I work from home and make my own schedule. So the dogs are not waiting on walks or to go. I feed on a schedule or can leave it down for your baby. I prefer the dogs to have a crate if I have to leave them in the home and go out. The dogs in my home are sweet and old and treated like children. We have a fenced yard with rocks around the bottom to prevent from digging. We have a 6 foot fence. We are deep in a neighborhood so there are no busy roads nearby. We have many parks with in a mile (4) and we will walk to one daily. We have handled medications for years with dogs and cats.

“Amazing sitter! First time on Rover and I have an older dog that started having problems making it out on time when pooping. Picking up poop and Great Dane poop is not fun. Unfortunately he didn't make it out as much as I thought he would and she never once complained. She loved both my boys and did an amazing job! She took many pictures and gave me full updates. Would highly recommend her to anyone!”

K C.

“Michelle is amazing! She welcomed us enthusiastically with very little notice ( the night before needing care when we were in a bind). Michelle arranged a met n greet right away, and although our pup was shy with Michelle at first, our pup came away from doggy daycare with new forever friends! Michelle made our pup feel like she was a well-loved little queen! If Michelle is willing to work with us in the future, we plan to have her caring for our pets regularly. I told Michelle that she is a gem! And she is just that - a rare gem and a kind soul! Michelle cares for her clients pets as if they are her own. Highly recommend Michelle!”

Michelle J.

“Thank you so much for getting the girls out, I really appreciate it. Candice is the BEST, very responsive and helpful while I was away from work.”

Conagher H.

About: Ever since I can remember, I've been a huge dog-lover. Growing up in my family, we always had dogs in our home and they were treated as part of the family. Nowadays, my love for dogs has actually sort of transformed into a huge necessity for my emotional and mental well being. They've become somewhat therapeutic for me. Because of this, I've always offered my time to friends and family to take care of their dogs while they were at work or out of town. Before apps like Rover existed, I would often do this for free just because I enjoyed it so much. Now that I've found this opportunity, I'm excited to help owners take care of their pets as a career path. Since I work for myself as an entrepreneur, I'm very flexible with my schedule. If I'm not already tied up with other projects, I fit in pet care to my schedule whenever I possibly can. Since I have a fenced in yard, I typically allow my own dog to run free or relax in the sun. From time to time, I take them on little adventures out in nature or just for a good walk for exercise. Depending on the dog/owner, I adjust the activities to meet their needs the best that I can.

About: I have taken care of Friends, Family and others people's pets for years now. I have experience and love animals!! I walk, feed, adminster medication, bathe, and keep company. Pet care fits with my daily routine around my work schedule. I have weekends off, but I can watch during the day. I sometimes work a couple hours in the early evenings, but I am usually home. I have a freindly older dog of my own to keep your dog company, I can crate your dog if you want, but I do have a good size fenced In backyard for them to run around and play.

“Started with a welcoming meat and greet with Michelle and her family. My dogs were surprisingly shy. Their family has rescue experience and are patient and loving and work great with the dogs. During our time away we got photos and updates which were great. One of my dogs had a hurt foot prior to me dropping her off. I had no idea what happened. Michelle and family pampered her and treated her foot with a creme and bandage. Very appreciative for the extra attention. I recommend her and her family for other families and certainly would use her again with my dogs”
