“Libby was well taken care of and had a good time with Michelle. She was very friendly and sent pictures every day. I will definitely keep her in mind if I ever need a sitter again for Libby.”
“Wow! Kristin did an amazing job watching our high energy dogs! It's hard to find a person with such great expertise, love and care especially with our young puppy. Both of our dogs really enjoyed their stay and she is totally trustworthy and reliable. She really goes the extra mile in caring for dogs. I hope to book again with her in the future!”
“We’re so thankful to Jennifer for watching our dog Moose during our trip! She was a great communicator and kept us updated with photos. It sounds like my dog and hers became great pals. She made sure to check on his needs so he was comfortable. :)”
“Sofia has been the perfect host for Teddy ! I cannot recommend her enough. She was so gentle and caring for Teddy, he could not have been in a better home! Thank you again Sofia !”
“Ray and Sherry love dogs, it's so easy to tell. They're very caring, and pay attention to whatever needs the dogs may have. I could see by the pictures they sent that my pup was happy and content, and even a little spoiled!”
“Kate and her family are amazing! Our dogs were right at home and so well loved and spoiled, I wondered if they would even want to come home! I was very nervous to use a sitter I was not familiar with, but I swear they are basically family now. I cannot recommend her enough!!”
“10/10 fur-baby-sitter! Celeste and her husband were very helpful when moving the dog crate in and out of their home. Celeste would also consistently send me pictures and updates about my fur baby while I was away! They were very accommodating to his odd tendencies and high maintenance, and they even sent him home with a little doggy goodie bag! I think my pet had a fun little weekend, especially since he had other dogs to keep him company, and I am very happy with the service given by Celeste and their husband. I will be using them again whenever I take another trip out of town!”

“I can’t say enough great things about Chandler! Leaving my little man while traveling for a business trip was stressful, but Chandler immediately put my mind at ease. His genuine care, communication and attention made me feel completely confident that my dog was in the best hands. It’s clear he truly loves animals and treats them like family. I was able to focus on my work knowing my pup was safe, happy and well cared for. I’m incredibly grateful for the peace of mind he provided and would highly recommend Chandler to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pet.”

“This was my first time using Rover and was a little nervous about leaving our girls with someone we didn’t know. We’ve always boarded our two dogs(13yo and 4 yo) with our vet. Candace made the entire experience amazing. Instantly, I felt comfortable and at ease upon the first time our two dogs and I met her during the meet and greet. She took excellent care of our girls during the 11 day stay with her. She voluntarily sent several photos of them and reported in on how they were doing throughout the time she kept them. She was very accommodating with scheduling the drop off/pick up times and with administrating meds to them. She is our new permanent dog sitter when we travel. Highly recommend Candace!”
“The set up for dogs is amazing! Oreo definitely enjoyed her stay. I got pictures with updates and felt very comfortable leaving Oreo in capable hands. 10 out of 10 would highly recommend.”
“I was able to book a sitter short notice after the one i had booked canceled on me last minute. Everything went great. My dog seemed well cared for. Id recommend using her and would use her again.”
“Jessica was a last-minute reservation to keep Shelby for me as I had to fly out of the country. She gave me updates daily on him with pictures of how well he was doing, and I’m amazed because Shelby is such a mama’s boy that it’s too funny that he adapted to other people as well as he did I will definitely”

About: I have almost always had cats, my whole life. I put 20 years because here and there I've moved house and even country (But I am 33 years of age). My oldest cat is turning 9 years old this year. All three are well behaved and get along together which says a lot I think. I clean their litter box daily which is a necessity with three (and I clean under and around the one without a lid so I know what it means to really have to keep it in check). I have a water fountain which I scrub and refill periodically. They are fed Blue Wilderness because it seems to be the better quality food in stores. It's worth it for me because I love them a lot.
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have experience caring for cats with different personalities and needs. Friends and family trust me to feed, play with, and check in on their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, dependable, and make sure every cat feels safe and comfortable. I can also help with litter box cleaning, giving medication if needed, and keeping owners updated with pictures and messages.

“I have never left my small dogs with anyone or a doggie day care before. I am so thankful I found Sherry and Ray. They totally made my dogs feel at home and was very communicative from the start. It was a pleasure to do a meet and greet before the big day and to see their lovely dog friendly home and fenced in backyard. My dogs had a blast and enjoyed playing and hanging out with the other dogs. I felt very calm leaving them for the day and was so excited to go pick them up. I would highly recommend to board your small dogs and they would be safe and in very good care.”

Therefore, I have a very flexible schedule as I usually only work from 7 A.M. to 12 P.M. four days a week. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I prioritize safety, structure, and stimulation. In a client’s home, I strictly follow all instructions and respect their space while maintaining a calm and clean environment for the pet. In my own home, I ensure pets receive plenty of attention, mental stimulation, and physical activity through regular walks and playtime. I truly strive to create a comfortable setting where pets feel secure and cared for at all times!

“Kenmarie was great with our dog and very flexible with our timing as we had to switch from daycare to boarding with short notice. It was a pleasure to meet her and our dog did not mind the separation because she provided such great care.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies who need training reinforcement to senior pets who require patience and gentle handling. As a veteran, I bring reliability, attention to detail, and calm leadership that animals naturally respond to. I’m comfortable administering basic medications, supporting senior dogs with mobility challenges, and keeping up with energetic pups who need exercise and structure. What sets me apart is consistency—you can count on me to be on time, communicate clearly, and treat every pet like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I structure my days so I’m available for morning walks, midday drop-ins, and evening care. I'm home constantly, which allows me to focus on the needs of each pet. Whether it’s regular daily walks, weekend sitting, or last-minute bookings, I ensure pets receive consistent attention and care when their families are unable to be there. Safety and trust come first in every home I step into. In a client’s home, I respect their space and routines while making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding schedules to walk routes, and I keep a close eye on doors, gates, and leashes to ensure pets stay safe. I provide plenty of positive attention, consistent communication with updates and photos, and a calm presence that helps pets feel secure. My goal is to give every family peace of mind knowing their pets are safe, happy, and treated like my own.

Honestly she was a complete godsend for me when I really needed someone to watch my pup!”

About: Hi! My name is Lianna and caring for dogs is truly something I love. I have over 5 years of experience fostering and working with dogs, and I’m also comfortable with basic training and handling dogs with different personalities. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes—from tiny 5 lb pups to large 100+ lb dogs—and I’m comfortable with all breeds. Because of my fostering experience, I’m used to reading dog body language and helping dogs feel safe, calm, and comfortable in new environments. When your dog is with me they will get: • Lots of love and attention • Safe, attentive care • Plenty of playtime and potty breaks • A calm and comfortable environment I treat every dog like they are my own, and my goal is always to make sure both you and your pup feel happy and stress-free while you’re away. Your baby will be in caring and experienced hands with me! Since we recently moved here for my husband’s military assignment, I’m currently home full-time, which allows me to give dogs my full attention throughout the day. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine, and your pup will never feel like they’re being squeezed in between other commitments. I live in a large, dog-friendly two-bedroom apartment with a dog park right downstairs, as well as a large park and walking trail just up the street. This makes it easy to give dogs plenty of exercise, potty breaks, and fresh air. Throughout the day I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playtime, and (with your permission) trips to the dog park so they can burn off energy and have fun. Because I’m home most of the day, I’m able to provide consistent care, attention, and companionship, making sure your dog feels comfortable and happy while you’re away. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. With over 5 years of experience fostering and working with dogs of all sizes and breeds, I’m very comfortable reading dog body language and making sure each dog feels calm and secure in a new environment. My home is a clean, calm, and pet-friendly space where dogs can relax and feel at home. I’m attentive about supervision, safe walks, and proper introductions with other dogs if we visit the dog park. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully—whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, training routines, or special needs. I also believe communication is important, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident and relaxed knowing your pup is in good hands.

I have no problem working with timid dogs or rescues, and understand the nuance and patience they may require. Your pet’s comfort, health, and happiness is my priority. Reach out today, I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! ☺️🐾 I’m currently working part-time, which leaves my schedule very flexible for all your pet care needs! I work 2 days a week but even on those days I am available after 3. In client’s homes, I always check that fences and gates are secured before letting a dog outside. For dog-walking, I’ll make sure your dog’s gear is fitted properly and cannot be slipped. I always carry an extra leash and high reward treats. I don’t let client’s dogs meet other dogs we may come across on our walks. I will feed based on whatever schedule you provide me with.
About: I've taken care of all kinds of pets since I was a little girl. I have tons of experience with bathing, walking, and even giving meds. I have schooling but I graduate soon. I'm online so I have plenty of time on my hands. Taking care of animals is what I love and is a perfect way to fill my schedule. I have a large land (8.9 acres). I only have 2 dogs and they are very well trained. I was raised to "leave it better than I found it" so I will never snoop or trash any home.
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I was always the one bringing home and caring for animals that needed extra love and attention. I even wanted to become a veterinarian — but my heart is just a little too soft when it comes to animals. Caring for pets isn’t just a side job for me — it genuinely makes me happy. I truly love spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Your dog won’t just get a quick visit — they’ll get someone who genuinely enjoys being there. I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to accommodate walks and potty breaks every few hours. Your dog’s routine and comfort will always be a priority. I currently offer drop-in visits and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to stop by every few hours if needed. During each visit, I make sure your pet gets potty breaks, fresh water, feeding (if needed), and plenty of playtime and attention. I truly love spending time with dogs — whether that’s playing fetch, going for a short walk, or just giving belly rubs and keeping them company. I always follow your pet’s routine closely to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m very clean and respectful of your home and treat every space as if it were my own. My goal is to make sure you come home to a happy pet and peace of mind.

About: I've always had pets and I grew up on a dairy farm. I've bottle fed calves and lambs, raised dogs and leash trained them, cared for horses, chickens, almost always had cats, and even kept pet rats! I worked at a dog kennel and groomer at one time briefly, although the environment of a kennel leaves much to be desired as animals kept as pets are best kept in a home environment where possible. My 20 years is just an estimate of collective time with animals really, I am 33 years old. I have commitments to my church every Wednesday and Saturday evening and Sunday mornings. But during the days and even after services I can make time for potty visits or litter care etc. I am courteous of others' belongings and if I am doing a house call I will be diligent to leave things in good order, even in an improved state if possible.
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 8 years in all stages of life and am certified in canine/feline CPR. I believe the best place to care for pets is in their home, where they can feel safe and confident. I can give pills and non-injective liquid medication I currently live with two dogs- one Lab/Great Dane, mix age 10 and one Coton De Tulear, age 11. I want to care for other dogs just as I have them. I believe the best place for pets is where they are able to feel safe, confident, and calm. That place is their home, and I will care for them to my best ability.
About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was 4 we recently just had to put down our 15 year old pit Bull. I have a 10 year old pit mix that I hold near my heart. I hope as you look at my profile and see me you also believe that I will treat your dog as one of my own and give them the best care while you are away. As of right now I work from home, so that means I am free all day to give your dog the love and care they deserve! I do not have a fenced in yard but i am a couple blocks down from a dog friendly park that we could walk to or even just play in the spacious back yard. I also have a friendly fur baby who would love making a new friend.
About: I love any dog that crosses my path I have experience with lots of small dogs but also some very large dogs and am able to handle them both. I have experience with older dogs who may need more help with certain things but also the most energetic younger dogs who need to be played with and walked many times a day I am still a student athlete in college so I have classes and practices throughout the week but your pet will never be left alone for longer than about 2 hours at a time which will be a very rare occurrence, my classes end in April so ill have a lot more free time soon as well Making sure they are fed in a timely manner, I love playing with dogs so as long as they have energy ill be there to play with them, making sure they get walks and potty breaks often, and taking care of any special needs they might have that ive been made aware of.
About: I have 3 dogs small and large. All super well taken care of and walk atleast a mile everyday. I also groom my own pets every month. I make sure that all my pups and me get our daily exercise together by taking walks or runs. I always plan my schedules for the week around my dogs and the time I need with them. I give them so much love and get all the exercise and energy they need in the day out. They are my number 1 priority
About: I’ve taken care of 5 of my dogs for as long as they were with us on earth, my friends and family have relied on me to watch, feed, walk, run with their pets and we are all happy… pets happy, busy owners chilling, and I get to enjoy them for a while too. I’m currently working a few days a week and my schedule is somehow very flexible so I can be available to help you with your pet needs. I would care for your pet/fury baby as my own in your home and most important always respecting any routine that you might have for them.

“Wow! Kristin did an amazing job watching our high energy dogs! It's hard to find a person with such great expertise, love and care especially with our young puppy. Both of our dogs really enjoyed their stay and she is totally trustworthy and reliable. She really goes the extra mile in caring for dogs. I hope to book again with her in the future!”
“We’re so thankful to Jennifer for watching our dog Moose during our trip! She was a great communicator and kept us updated with photos. It sounds like my dog and hers became great pals. She made sure to check on his needs so he was comfortable. :)”
“Sofia has been the perfect host for Teddy ! I cannot recommend her enough. She was so gentle and caring for Teddy, he could not have been in a better home! Thank you again Sofia !”
“Kate and her family are amazing! Our dogs were right at home and so well loved and spoiled, I wondered if they would even want to come home! I was very nervous to use a sitter I was not familiar with, but I swear they are basically family now. I cannot recommend her enough!!”
“10/10 fur-baby-sitter! Celeste and her husband were very helpful when moving the dog crate in and out of their home. Celeste would also consistently send me pictures and updates about my fur baby while I was away! They were very accommodating to his odd tendencies and high maintenance, and they even sent him home with a little doggy goodie bag! I think my pet had a fun little weekend, especially since he had other dogs to keep him company, and I am very happy with the service given by Celeste and their husband. I will be using them again whenever I take another trip out of town!”

“Melanie and her family were wonderful with Maya. Her dog Georgie was also so sweet and was able to put up with our high energy pup. We are so grateful for the great care that was provided and we would trust our furry ones with Melanie any day.”
“I can’t say enough great things about Chandler! Leaving my little man while traveling for a business trip was stressful, but Chandler immediately put my mind at ease. His genuine care, communication and attention made me feel completely confident that my dog was in the best hands. It’s clear he truly loves animals and treats them like family. I was able to focus on my work knowing my pup was safe, happy and well cared for. I’m incredibly grateful for the peace of mind he provided and would highly recommend Chandler to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pet.”
About: “Unlike many sitters, I’m home all day which means your dog gets consistent attention, care, and companionship. I maintain a peaceful, structured home environment and only take a limited number of dogs to ensure each one receives personalized love and supervision.” “Being home full-time allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. Your dog will be included in our day with regular walks, playtime, and constant supervision in a relaxed, loving home environment “Dogs in my care enjoy a spacious, fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor play and exercise. I live in a quiet, safe neighborhood ideal for stress-free walks, and I’m located less than a mile from Loxley Municipal Park for extra activity and enrichment opportunities.”
“I am so pleased with how Luna was cared for. This was the first time I have left her and I received daily pictures and updates and Luna was great! We will definitely book with Ashleigh again”
“This was my first time using Rover and was a little nervous about leaving our girls with someone we didn’t know. We’ve always boarded our two dogs(13yo and 4 yo) with our vet. Candace made the entire experience amazing. Instantly, I felt comfortable and at ease upon the first time our two dogs and I met her during the meet and greet. She took excellent care of our girls during the 11 day stay with her. She voluntarily sent several photos of them and reported in on how they were doing throughout the time she kept them. She was very accommodating with scheduling the drop off/pick up times and with administrating meds to them. She is our new permanent dog sitter when we travel. Highly recommend Candace!”
“The set up for dogs is amazing! Oreo definitely enjoyed her stay. I got pictures with updates and felt very comfortable leaving Oreo in capable hands. 10 out of 10 would highly recommend.”
“Jessica was a last-minute reservation to keep Shelby for me as I had to fly out of the country. She gave me updates daily on him with pictures of how well he was doing, and I’m amazed because Shelby is such a mama’s boy that it’s too funny that he adapted to other people as well as he did I will definitely”
“Reanna was so easy to work with. Mowgli loved staying with them and was sad after coming back home and missed his buddies over there. Reanna communicated the entire time and kept me updated with pictures and videos which put me to ease to enjoy our family trip. Thank you for keeping Mowgli! Highly recommended her 💜”
“Halley was great! She was super nice and friendly, and she kept me updated on how my babies were doing while I was away. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in good hands and having fun. 10/10, I would definitely book with her again!”
“We found Kathryn at the last minute (two days before vacation) after the our dog didn’t pass the temperament test at a local boarder. This turned out to be a big blessing in disguise, because we were a little nervous about leaving our adopted dog with out us for the first time. Kathryn set our minds at ease with the awesome communication and flow of photos that reassured us our little buddy was in good hands and having a good time. We are SO, SO thankful to have found Kathryn and definitely plan to have her dog sit again in the future. Thank you!”
