“Samantha is the best cat sitter. I can tell she really cares about my kitties. She’s been great at giving meds when Milo needed it. And I appreciate her notes on how the kitties are doing each day. She is very through and caring.”
“Super fast response to messages and great with my cat. So glad to have found Kenzie close to home and so sweet with my baby! I’ll definitely leave Mocha with her again! Thank you so much! :)”
“Jennifer and William took amazing care of my babies. I was so nervous about leaving my dogs, but they made me feel so much better by sending me pictures, videos and updates during the visits. My dogs seemed to enjoy Jennifer and William’s company and when I came home my dogs were happy and didn’t even seem to miss me at all! I will definitely contact them in the future. I can confidently say I trust them with my babies!”
“Megan did such a phenomenal job cat-sitting for us. We have three VERY high maintenance furballs. It was clear Megan took time to play and cuddle them daily. We plan to only hire Meghan in future if possible. Very trustworthy.”
“Chrystal was fantastic! She is quick to respond and sends detailed info about each cat with each check in. Even sends pictures to go along with it. Extremely trustworthy! Will 100% use her again!”
About: I meet my first cat named Melly when I was 20 and she immediately took to me. She later had my baby Greyson who I fell in love with and ever since then I have been taken to cats! I have watched several cats before and I am aware and understand how each cat is different and require so much! I would love to meet and treat them as though they are my baby Greyson!
“Aurora was so great with my 2 cats!! I had a last minute booking due to a cancellation, but she was super kind and accommodating! My social kitty loved her and was a total lap cat during her visits. I even caught a clip on the pet cam of him crying at the door after she left because he loved her so much! She was also understanding of my super shy kitty who likes to hide. She was worried about him and made sure to check all his hiding spots. Their litter robot had a little malfunction on a day where she wasn’t even supposed to check in, but she still dropped by and went out of her way to fix it. I’d recommended her to anyone!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of all types of cats ever since I was 16 years old. My parents and I had a cat adopt us when our oldest dog was sick. He showed up out of nowhere and became her best friend until she passed away. His name is Gizmo and is the sweetest old man. I love cats that love to cuddle and purr all day. I love naps and love napping with them.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, whether that being pets growing up or my dad taking me to the farm. I’ve been working at Cindy Lou’s Do’s for 3+ years now and I do weekend boarding every weekend for dogs, cats and even pigs every so blue moon. My compassionate and fun personality will ensure the best care for your pet. I work part time at 2 jobs currently and i’m a college student but im always home and have breaks in between classes and things. my work schedule during the week is either 7am-12pm or 12pm-5pm. On weekends I also do dog boarding and the times I go in to walk and check on the dogs are 8,12 and 5 so most weekends i’m free to stay for boarding as long as i’m able to leave in between. I live in a gated neighborhood with one dog and 3 cats occasionally when the one outside wants to come in. They are all friendly and get along well with other pets. Pets to me are like children and need to be watched at all times and basically coddled, that is no problem for me whatsoever. quite frankly i enjoy it.
“Hannah was absolutely wonderful! She communicated well and went above and beyond to make sure our kitties (and house) were cared for. Bonus- she also takes great photos :) We will definitely use Hannah again for future rover requests. Thank you, Hannah!!”
About: I have 2 pets of my own. A dog and a cat and I love them with my whole heart. 3 years ago I started watching my neighbors large size dogs and fell in love with it. I have graduated from Georgia Southern University with my Bachelors degree in Criminal Justice. I live in Statesboro full time and I am just trying to make a little extra money on the side! I am free Monday - Friday and on the weekends as well! I currently have a dog and cat that live with me. As for watching my neighbors dogs I have had them in their crates because that’s how the owner had them. I now live in Statesboro full time and sadly they moved away and I do not watch their dogs anymore.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Dover
About: I've had animal experience as long as I can remember. I've had a ton of pets growing up, from ferrets, to fish, to cats, and of course dogs. I had to take care of all of them and all of the responsibilities in taking care of a pet. Animals make me a happier and better person. One day I plan on owning and operating my own pet day care, where you can bring any animal you'd like and myself and my crew will take care of them Every morning when I wake up, the first thing I do is take care of my pet; I let my dogs out and I feed them. They go out multiple times a day and get fed twice a day. I will provide your pet with as much outside time as needed. If you have a crate and they consider their crate as their safe space, I will be more than happy to set it up in my home.
“This was our first time booking with Jorja and it went really smoothly! Daisy had a great time, and I really appreciated getting videos to see how much fun she was having. Communication was easy and I felt confident she was being well cared for. Would definitely book again!”
“I could not be happier with my puppy’s stay with Sabrina! She was so willing to care for my puppy short notice. She sent the most precious pictures and provided so much play time! He did not want to leave. I will definitely be using her again! Thank you, Sabrina!”
“We reached out to Maria for a last-minute request and she was not only able to accommodate, but was very flexible with us. Sika had an awesome time lounging around with Maria and her family; I thought we may have a hard time getting her to come home with us! 🤣 We will definitely be reaching out to Maria in the future for any of our sitting needs for Sika in this area!”

About: I've been a pet owner my entire life and pet sat for friends and family since I was around 12 years old. In the last few years, I've also become something of a pet expert through my freelance writing. That same experience means that my schedule is very flexible and I can easily work while hanging out with your pets in your home. I'm currently training to become a dog trainer and behaviorist, and I have first-hand experience with reactive dogs through my own dog, Ginger. I've also cared for special needs dogs in the past, and have a special needs cat, Pepper, of my own. I carry my own pet sitting insurance and am happy to provide proof of insurance upon request. I'm a freelancer that sets my own hours, so I can work in pet care at any time. I can even stay full-time at your home the entire time you're away. I prefer to care for pets in clients' homes. I find that most animals are more comfortable in their own environment anyway, plus there's no concern for how well they'll get along with my own pets.
About: Family, friends and neighbors have relied on me to care for their furry loved ones when they need help. I care for them as if they were my own. I work from home so your dogs will have constant company and potty breaks. I love the idea of helping others pet owners when need. I have a fence in yard that backs up to a pond. Very quiet and peaceful. All boarded dogs will come to my home, I will come to your home and walk your dog, if requested, play fetch, give attention, and gentle love to them in your place which services you request. Feed them if needed.
About: I've taken care of animals for the past 17 years. My husband and I love animals and treat all of your guests as our own. We love cuddling and spoiling your fur babies if allowed! my husband and I work opposite schedules where we are able to be with your fur baby (almost!) around the clock. We overlap for a few hours otherwise someone is home to care for your baby! We have a black lab named Ruby who loves other dogs! We are able to take you fur baby on walks as needed and enjoy sitting in our backyard with them. We do not have a fence, however we do have a long lead (they can use only while we are outside if given permission; they will never be unsupervised). We also enjoy sitting on our porch while they are on their leash.
About: I have 2 dogs and a cat of my own I am very trust worthy with animals I am going to college to be a veterinarian I have experience training puppies or doing needs for older dogs I love to take the dogs on walks or even just sit and give them company I am available through out the week and weekend mon-sun anytime I try to be flexible as much as possible if needed I would love and come walk or take care of your animals I am a very trust worthy person if I’m staying to watch your your animals I will like to come a day before just to meet you and meet the baby I will meet all the standards that your fur baby will need
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, from bird dogs and rescues to cats, horses, goats, and everything in between. Growing up in a home full of working dogs taught me patience, confidence, and how to read different personalities. I’m comfortable with calm, easygoing pets as well as high‑energy or high‑strung dogs who need a steady, reassuring presence. No matter the species or temperament, I believe every animal deserves love, respect, and gentle care — and that’s exactly what I bring to every pet I look after. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I’m able to give pets consistent attention throughout the day — whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company. Since I’m home, I can adapt to each pet’s needs and maintain their normal routine without rushing or interruptions. When I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and reassurance. When I’m in your home, I treat it with the utmost care and respect, just as I would want someone to treat mine! Your pet’s comfort and your home’s privacy and cleanliness are always top priorities.

“I 've used Chrystal for daily drop ins and a drop by walk. She is great and I am glad I found her for my senior dog. Dottie took right to her and even one of my cats visited with her while she was there. I will certainly use her again. I appreciate all the pictures from the visits!”
About: Hey I’m Brooklyn, I’m going to make this short and sweet but info packed! I have grown up with dogs, I currently have an Irish setter named Mac, while also having two French bulldogs at my parents whom I am constantly watching. I have been dog sitting since I was around 10, I am well versed in all types of dogs including breed, temperament, and signal's dogs use. I have taken care of senior and special need dogs, including a beautiful Mastif named Matilda. I am well versed in giving medications/shots to dogs as well as how to help them stand, get up, lay down, and use the restroom while not being able to do so fully by themselves. If I am unfamiliar with how to do something I will be upfront and honest with you and either have you show me how to do said task, or do research! If you are nervous about leaving your dog with someone you do not know let me help! I can meet up prior to you even booking and try to ease your mind. I know it can be scary leaving your dog and I want to help you and your pup feel comfortable! If you dog is aggressive I would be more than will to watch them! Aggressive dogs are not bad dogs, they are scared. I have owned an aggressive dog myself, as well as worked with quite a few. If you have tricks you have found worked for your dog I would love to hear them. If not I have done hours of research, reading, and experience with aggressive dogs. Training, if your dog is in the process of training or needs to learn simple sit and lay down type of commands I would be more than happy to work that in to ensure the best for you and your pup! I am also more than happy to do baths for your pets I’m so excited to get to know your babies! Feel free to reach out if you need more info on a specific topic. I am a college student, I have classes mostly in the morning but very spaced out. My schedule is flexible other than my classes. Sundays I do go to church but if need be I can find my way around that. Dogs are not just dogs, they are family. When in my care your dog will always come first not matter what the situation is. Your home will always be treated with respect and left better than I found it. The dogs needs are extremely important even if it is a ball stuck under the couch! I will listen to what your dog need from you and your dog, I will treat your animal with respect and the upmost care.
“Hannah was such a huge lifesaver in my situation. She was super responsive and friendly. She went above and beyond to make sure she was there for my dog when I couldn't be. I never want another dog walker aside from her, honestly. Very trustworthy and my dog loved her.”
