Highly-rated overnight sitters - Walden
“Kyrie has been doing a great job with my Brandi girl. This is her first time away with someone other than family members and she settled in really well with him. He has been extremely helpful to ease our parental worries too, along with giving tips about her harness and walking so she doesn't pull as much. He is calm and soft spoken which I feel really is comforting to her as well.”
“My wife and I like to take weekend trips as often as we can and Ray is our go to sitter in Macon. Our pup has anxiety issues and he does a great job caring for her. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing in house boarding!”
“Brittany was great! She communicated well throughout King and Dova’s stay. She provided me with pictures and videos of how they were doing. She spoiled them a little. I definitely think they enjoyed themselves! 🤭”
“Valerie did an excellent job of caring for my old girl while I was away. It gave me peace of mind knowing that my Princess was being cared for and given the attention she needed. I will book Valerie again and recommend her to anyone who is looking for a responsible, caring person to board their dog.”
“This has been the best imaginable experience. My dog is challenging (110 intense pounds), and he was skillfully introduced to the pack and welcomed into the home. My dog was loved, played with, exercised, and was never bored or lonely. I am beyond satisfied and will definitely be back. I even learned about a great new (to me) grooming tool. Thank you so much!!”
“This was my first time boarding or as I like to say sending my senior dog to“sleep-away camp,” and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Scheduling, drop-off, pick-up, and everything in between was seamless. Ms. Kim took such wonderful care of my girl and kept me updated the with photos and videos, which truly helped me relax while I was away. My dog had an absolute blast, and it was clear she was in experienced, caring hands. Kim’s communication, professionalism, and genuine love for animals made this whole experience exceptional. I’m so grateful and will absolutely be booking “camp” with her again!”
“Brishuna was great! I loved that she gave updates and sent pictures to keep me informed on how my pup was doing this was my first time being away from him and she made it a great experience I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Dana and Brandon were great. Clean and welcoming environment. Kinda felt like dropping our fur-kid off at a friends house for the weekend. They stayed in touch with us and sent updates and pics. We will definitely be calling on them in the future and recommending them to our friends.”
“Thank you, Shaniece! You kept my furry baby so I could get some "me" time. I was able to enjoy my vacation even more when you sent a video, showing how much fun he was having. We'll see you again soon!”
“I love booking Julia when it comes to find a sitter for my pet. She's always great with her and I'm never concerned about my pet's well being because Julia sends me updates all the time. I highly recommend Julia as your pet sitter. She's always quick to respond even on short notices. Thank you so much Julia for caring for my pet!”
“Imelda is such a sweetheart! She did such a good job taking care of my big baby boy Henry LOL he is so sad whenever I leave and she was able to pull him out of that funk and keep him entertained while I was gone. She also was able to take care of big guy Lou and keep him said well the whole time lol. Thank you so much imelda, they can't wait to spend more time with you next time!”
“Kristin is amazing. She kept me informed of our 3 fur babies throughout the week I was gone. I received daily pictures of what they were doing. I will definitely use her again!!!!”
“Another FUN time for Fiona. She obviously played hard with Roo because she slept like a log all night when she got home. I was pleased to see that Fiona got a lot of one-on-one attention. I loved getting the photos of her playing or relaxing.”
“Kayla did a great job with my precious Honey - a 3 year old American Terrier Pit Bull. Honey received so much love and attention. Pictures and updates came around the clock. I will be booking her in the future.”
“Brodie seemed to enjoy his time with Dylan, his dogs, and his young son ! Frequent updates and pictures were sent. They have a big backyard perfect for for playing fetch and running around !”
“Awesome sitter! They took great care of my two dogs for five days and kept me updated throughout the stay with daily messages and updates on how they were doing. It was clear that my dogs were happy and well taken care of, which made me feel much more comfortable being away from them. No complaints at all, and I would absolutely book with them again when we need a sitter. Highly recommend!”

“Kalia was wonderful. I was worried about using Rover for my 6 week old kittens but they were in good hands with her. Great communication and my baby kitties really seemed to like her. 10/10, I would schedule her again.”
“Awesome experience, was out of town for quite some time and had no doubt that my babies were in good hands. Great communication through the whole time. Thank you Bailey!”
“Ladonna was amazing, she took care of my furbabies while we went away on an impromptu trip. Definitely will be more open-minded to rover again as this was such an easy and enjoyable experience with Ladonna as well! Thank you for all your help we genuinely appreciate you so much!!”
“Leia did an amazing job looking after my sweet Whispur for a week. She sent tons of photos and put on a lot of effort to get my shy cat to play instead of hiding from her the entire time. She left our house just as we left it before our trip. I would’ve never been able to tell that someone was here if it weren’t for the photos that proved otherwise. 10/10! Would book again.”
“I definitely recommend Naomi. She stayed overnight to take care of my cat. She is very trustworthy and respectful. She left the house clean and offered to get the mail and take care of the trash. I will be booking her again soon. I’m grateful that I found her.”
“She was absolutely amazing to my Zuko. She sent me videos and pictures of him, and it really made my feel better about him being taken care of. She also made sure he was fed and had water. Highly recommend! It’s comforting to me that she is a vet tech and has her own cats, so she understands. But definitely will be using her again to take care of my baby Zuko.”
About: I’ve grown up with cats most of my life and have been caring for cats outside of my home for the past five years through various cat-sitting jobs. I have experience with cats of all personalities and temperaments and am comfortable providing the patience, attention, and care they need.
“Wonderful! Reese is a great pet sitter. She touched base and kept me in the loop with my two cats and how they were doing each day with several pics. She even got my timid cat out to play each day and this is extraordinary. Can’t recommend enough!”
About: Hi! I have 8 years of experience caring for pets and do well with animals of all ages and sizes. I love making pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, so I always strive to make both the pet and owner feel comfortable. I treat every pet with the same care, attention, and love I would give my own! (The pfp is my baby!)
About: I have been around cats my whole life. I love cats! My mother had 12 cats when I lived at home they were all indoor and outdoor cats. I always told her the cats talked to each other and said hey if you go over to that lady's house she will feed you and give you a place to live. So we recently just had to put down her 16 year old baby girl Shad. She was like one of my mom's children and we loved her so much. I held her as she took her last breath, and I don't think I have ever cried that much in my life. I never knew how much ypu could love an animal until you have them. So I have customers that I clean for when they go out of town I will watch and check on the kitty. I give fresh water, leave treats out and change the cat litter. I've learned some cats like their treats put in a certain place. You learn that animals are just like humans. They have feelings just like we do. If you choose me to take car of your fur babies just know that I will love them and care for them just like I do my own children. My baby dog is my very best friend and I love him as much as I love my family bc he is family too.
About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for over 15 years. I grew up in a cat-loving home, where my parents welcomed seven cats into our family. My siblings and I all shared the responsibility of caring for them, so looking after animals has always been a part of my life. We also always had big dogs! Mastiffs, Labrador Retrievers, and a Standard Poodle, I’m very comfortable caring for both large and small breeds. Our newest family member, Penny the Chihuahua, has given me plenty of experience earning the trust of shy, skittish, anxious, and even grumpy little pups. I understand that some dogs and cats need a little extra time to feel comfortable, and I’m committed to respecting their boundaries while making them feel safe, loved, and cared for. Whether your pet is outgoing or a little more reserved, I’ll meet them where they are and give them the patience and kindness they deserve. To me, pets are so much more than animals, they’re family. While you’re away, I’ll care for your furry family member with the same love, attention, and respect that I would give my own, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands!
“Michelle gave my kitten attentive and gentle care over the course of my 1 week vacation. The entire time she gave me updates and I felt so at ease! She always kept me updated on what my kitten was doing and sent videos. She was very communicative and easy to talk to. I would recommend Michelle to anyone she is wonderful and your pets will have great care while you are away! Thanks Michelle!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Walden
“Kayla is the best sitter ever. She is amazing. She speaks dog. You can have absolute faith and trust that your pet is in great hands. She has the most experience ever. You're in great hands with Kayla. I've known her for years. When my dog is with her, he's safer than being with me!”
“This was our second vacation that we have left Ashes our Blue Heeler, and the service is amazing! We take her clean, healthy, and happy and that is how she has been returned! This service provided is a blessing in our lives!”
“Our Golden can be a bit of a challenge to some. Ray actually does a great job with him and had the patience with him he needed to get used to him. Our pups are pretty close and he's so good to both! They are both happy and healthy when they come home and I am very grateful to Ray for being there for our pups!!”
“Last minute booking and very caring. Provided a lot of pictures and our pup was so happy. She’s very anxious but it didn’t seem that way with Kyrie. Will be booking again in the future!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and absolutely love every single dog that I meet! I’m offering my home to board or dog sit your pup (or pups). I have a neutered male dog (8 years old) who is super sweet and chill. He’s never been aggressive or problematic with any animals or people. At best, our dogs can play together and become friends 🥰 I have special experience with older dogs taking medications and such, as well as dogs with epilepsy/seizures. I’m typically at home all day on the weekends so your dog would have constant care during those days. During the week I am at work from 7am - 3pm Monday through Friday, with a lunch break I am home for from 11am - 1pm. Because of me working in the office, your dog would be in the kennel during the morning while I am at work from 7am - 11am and then also when I am finishing work from 1pm - 3pm. I prefer for the dogs to be out of the kennel as much as possible! Feel free to reach out with any questions :) I have a fully fenced back yard and one dog of my own to help keep yours company! My motives behind offering pet sitting and boarding is simply because my dog misses having a sibling, but I cannot afford a second dog right now. So what better way to help him have friends to play with than to invite other friendly dogs into our home! My home is dog proof. No food, toxic substances, or anything along those lines are reachable by the dogs. If I am not home for any reason (like when I’m at work), I have cameras set up to watch the dogs just in case anything were to happen. I live only 10 mins away from my work so I can be home in a jiffy! I’m also willing to make accommodations for your pup, just let me know what they need!
About: I have 6 years of professional animal experience! This experience includes working in a dog boarding facility, professional petsitting, grooming, and zookeeper experience working with exotic animals! I work from home running my own craft business, so my schedule is very flexible! I’m able to easily work pet care into my day and can provide morning, afternoon, and evening care depending on your pet’s needs. Since I’m home for most of the day, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention and make sure they’re comfortable and cared for. When caring for your pets in your home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions provided by their owner, including feeding schedules, medications, routines, and any special safety requirements. I treat every home and pet with respect and make sure pets are supervised and cared for throughout my visit.
“Lindsey did an amazing job with my two labradors! I was very nervous about needing to leave them with a stranger for several days and did not want them left in a cage all day. Lindsey communicated closely with me and sent pictures of the dogs and her family interacting a several times a day. The day care was for three days and the pups were very excited to see Lindsey. I will have them stay with Lindsey again as future travel needs arise.”
“Amazing pet care and friendly person. My baby Penny loves Bri! She’s wagging her tail every time she’s dropped off and picked up. Bri always keeps me in the know and sends pictures throughout the day, even when I forgot to ask for updates. And Bri’s dog, Bear, so sweet! He is such a good companion and helped get Penny out of her shell.”
“Milena ’is the most pleasant person you could ever meet. She definitely has the skills and experience dealing with dogs when I bought Brandi over for a meet and greet she was exceptionally good with Brandi. She is gentle kind soft spoken. She just took to Brandi and Brandi took to her I would recommend her to anybody awesome awesome. Awesome if you need a pet sitter, I say go with Milena.”
“Valerie was awesome! I didn’t know what I was going to do about doggy daycare on Columbus Day since my normal daycare was shut down for the holiday. Valerie was so personable, and I could see her love for dogs when I first met her! Wish I could use her more, but Clyde is just super familiar with where he typically goes. I highly recommend Valerie! She had to have been very attentive to take so many pics of him! Loved her! She was awesome!”
About: I’ve taken care of every kind of dog since I was 12. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I’m currently not working, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! So I’m available anytime I am needed to take care of your pups! I would prefer to take care of your fur babies in your home, so that your pups feel more comfortable in their loving homes when being taken care of.
About: I’ve worked at the rescue in my hometown for a few years now, I’ve worked in 2 different grooming salons, and have also been involved with some vets. Working at a rescue and a grooming salon gives you so much experience to learn more about each breed and each dog. You get to learn everything about each sweetheart so we’ll over time that you also start to love them like they’re you’re own. I had to deal with almost every experience when it comes to pets as well. I love dogs so very much they have such a soft place in my heart and it’s always great to get to learn about their owners as well when they’re steady customers! Boarding and grooming is something I do full time on my own, I’m home all the time unless I need to run and errand or two. Your pets will get lots and lots of attention their whole stay! We live where there is a fenced in property, 2 large dogs who are very pet friendly. We take up lots of time with pets staying with us to make them feel as comfortable as possible and just because we absolutely love all fur babies!
About: Most of my experience comes from caring for my senior beagle, who I’ve raised since he was a puppy. He still has plenty of energy, so I’m very used to daily walks, playtime, and keeping a steady routine. I study from home most days, so I’m around a lot and can give dogs regular breaks, attention, and a calm place to hang out. I’m a medical student who studies from home most days, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I already take my own dog out for daily walks and breaks, so adding another dog to that schedule works well. I can easily fit in regular walks, feeding times, playtime, and checkins throughout the day. I live in a pet-friendly with plenty of open areas to walk. Inside, I keep a clean, supervised, and cozy home. I treat every dog gently and carefully, just like I treat my own.
About: Hello, My name is Alesia. I am very nice, friendly and outgoing person, and I love meeting new dogs and their parents. I have a precious little White Maltipoo Dog named Casper, and a little female Yorkshire Terrier named Chloe. Sometimes my Grand Dog, Cash, comes over to visit and play. He is a Labradoodle. I (and my husband -Ray) have raised a number of dogs throughout the years from, Toy Poodles, Miniature Pinchers, to Chows. We are partial to the smaller, lap dogs who love to be petted and cuddled so they will feel safe while their owners are away. My little fur guest can choose to go outside a few times a day or just stay inside if they like. I am flexible to the needs of my little fur guests. I will feed the pets according to their accustomed schedule and take them outside when needed. I have a very nice, secured fenced back yard for running and playing ball. And, by all means bring their favorite crate, bed, blanket or toys so they will feel right at home. Bring their favorite food and any treats that they are accustomed to eating. And of course, fresh water is always available. Please bring their collar and leash for their walk time. Some people even bring Mom or Dads piece of clothing (like at shirt) to sleep with so they will feel close to them, while they are away. I appreciate your business and I am here to serve your pet so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. I am retired and stay at Home unless I need to run a short errand etc. My home is quiet and peaceful. I have a glass front door if your furbaby wants to lay or sit and look out the door. I have two small senior Furbabies. They cuddle on the sofa with us. Your Furbaby is welcome to cuddle with us if they want to. We always have bowls of fresh water available at all times. We have a nice clean fenced backyard for your Furbabies to walk around in or take care of their business.
“Kiana was wonderful! She asked about our two labradors needs, invited us to see the fenced in backyard, and immediately reassured us leaving our fur babies in her care. She sent many pictures during the afternoon. Our pups had fun with her two. We highly recommend Kiana! Thank you, LuAnn and Kevin”
“By far the most amazing sitter. Full of care and full of love when it comes to to watching your fur ones. I don’t believe i would anyone else. Highly Recommended and looking forward to having her help us again #love shane&shiloh”
About: I have had animals all of my life and love caring for and playing with them. I will always treat your animals like my own. I am a stay at home mom of three, so I have open availability. My two older kidd are gone for school during the week. So its just me and my three year old. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs who like meeting new dog friends.

“Kaila did an amazing job taking care of Luna! She was reliable, communicative, and made sure Luna was well cared for throughout the booking. I really appreciated the updates and the attention she gave to my dog. I felt comfortable knowing Luna was in good hands. I would definitely book with Kaila again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker. Thank you so much! 🐾”
About: I was working parent so I know how guilty you can feel about your dog being home all day and needing exercise. Let me take them on a walk! Or I can come and check on them and let them have potty breaks. Let me know what ya need! I am just looking into doing this part time. I have a dog myself at home who loves her walks and getting exercise in. Let’s do this! I have a fenced yard and know the importance of keeping your fur baby safe! I love all animals and you will see your baby is in good hands!
About: I've worked in animal care for several years, starting at a dog boarding and daycare facility where I spent six years. I began as a kennel technician and worked my way up to general manager, gaining extensive experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, behaviors, and medical needs. I'm currently pursuing a long-term goal of becoming a veterinary technician. In my free time, I foster animals for a local rescue that I'm passionate about. I take pride in using fear-free handling techniques, understanding animal body language, working through behavioral challenges, and providing compassionate care for medically compromised pets. While I'm relatively new to Rover, I've been caring for pets in my home for years. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving their owners peace of mind. I'll treat your pets like they're my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay. I work full-time as a veterinary assistant at a local animal hospital. I have at least two days off each week and work a half day on Wednesdays. While I am away during part of the day, I come home every day during my hour lunch break to let your baby out for a potty break, playtime, and some extra love and attention. In the evenings, I enjoy taking dogs for walks (weather permitting) and spending quality time with them. When I have pets in my care, I plan my schedule around their needs. I avoid making additional plans so I can provide plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime, cuddles, and consistency with their normal routine. I do provide care in your home, with the same schedule/availability. Such as; going to your home on my break to care for the pet(s), only sitting for one family at a time, walks, etc. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable, loved, and at home as possible while you're away. I have a fully fenced backyard. I also have a pool that is currently being fenced for added safety. My philosophy is simple: pets are never left unattended outside. If your pet is crate-trained or simply feels more comfortable in a crate, I have plenty of space to set one up for daytime or overnight use. I only care for one client's pet(s) at a time to provide the safest environment and plenty of one-on-one attention. I have a designated "dog cabinet" stocked with essentials like pill pockets, peanut butter, and ability to keep any medications your pet may need during their stay. If your pet rides in my vehicle, I use a pet seat belt to help keep them secure during travel. I ask that owners provide a properly fitted harness or collar and leash. If you're unable to do so, I have extras available (with your permission) to safely transfer your pet to and from my home and for walks. I do my best to maintain your pet's normal feeding schedule, so I appreciate detailed instructions regarding meals, treats, and any special preferences. I also always ask about food sensitivities, allergies, or other dietary needs to ensure your pet stays happy and healthy. These apply to in your home as well.
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life & they truly are the best companions. I work from home and love having walk companions! My boyfriend and I are both dog people that love filling our home with fur, cuddles & treats! We will treat your pup like my own the whole duration of their stay! We will go on walks, to the dog park & cuddle on the couch. I can accommodate to different feeding schedules, exercise schedules and any other requests you may have. I will do my absolute best to stick to the schedule that you have set with them and make them feel as comfortable as possible. You will receive daily pics of your pup & the fun that they are having. I also have a cupboard filled with treats and goodies just waiting to spoil your dog. I work from home & do not have a set schedule. I currently take my pup for a walk in the ams and afternoons and I can easily fit your pet's needs around my schedule. We have a large back yard and my own vehicle for safe transportation and keeping while your loved ones are staying with me. They will be well cared for as if they were my own.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets ever since my first dog at age 11. Since then I’ve been walking, feeding, bathing and caring for friends and neighbors pets often. I love animals and the outdoors so it’s become a dream job for me. I work on the weekends so throughout the week I can give your pets my full undivided attention. Monday through Thursdays I usually spend studying alone so it would be nice to have furry company! I have a fenced in backyard that’s perfect for any dog. Although I don’t have any pets myself all my neighbors have furry babies and I have the perfect neighborhood for walks. I spend most time outdoors so I don’t mind going out. I enjoy taking the dogs on walks or to the park. Pets who like the indoors will have their own bed at my house. I will rarely dog sit at another person’s house but there can be a few exceptions.
About: Pets have been apart of my family all my life. From newborns, strays, friends pets, to crossing the rainbow, I've done it all with love and care. As a full time mom of teens that don't require a much of my time anymore. That leaves me free to take care of your "kids" and give them the attention, affectation and care they need and deserve. I'm available to visit or stay over in yr home. I'm very dependable, trustworthy and sweet spirited. I love making new friends of all kinds (people dogs, cats ,& more) and being a blessing to others.
About: I've always had at least one dog at any given time, and up to 4 at the most. I know what a fur baby needs, whether it's petting and naps to repetitive frisbee or tennis ball play! I enjoy the love each doggie brings. I know how hard it is to be at work or out of town and wonder if they are being adored in the same capacity as I would want to show. I can help alleviate the stress of being bored and alone all day, so YOU get all the best parts of your loving pup at the end of your long day. If they need snuggles, you've got the right girl! If they need a brisk hike or a run, let's give them what they deserve! Cats, birds, snakes, lizards and fish are all cared for in my presence
About: I have experience caring for pets through freelance pet-sitting and pet-care jobs for a variety of clients.

I’m comfortable with different personalities and needs, and I genuinely enjoy making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I'm currently working part-time, mostly on occasional weekday nights and Saturday mornings. My schedule is flexible. I am unavailable on most Sundays but can negotiate needs. I provide attentive and personalized care in the client’s home, following their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I’m happy to handle feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box care, medication if needed, and plenty of attention and companionship. I’ll also make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and cared for throughout each visit.

I am eager to meet your pets needs and will be diligent in respecting your pet’s routines, quirks, and household expectations! Your pet’s safety and happiness are my #1 priorities!

About: I have had large and small dogs my whole life. I can do anything from give medicine and bottle feeding to bath and walk dogs.i have taken care of senior dogs and puppies. I work part time and can make stop-ins in the mornings and on lunch and at night. I can also house sit and walk dogs. As a dog lover I know the general care for dogs. I would care for the dogs as per owners instructions at the owners house. I can feed, walk, bath, administer medicineand crate dogs.
About: I've had animals in my life for as long as I can remember. I currently have a tuxedo kitten, a senior Maine coon, and a husky.They are Sasuke, Tom, and Nettles. I specialize in dogs and cats who are on the hyper side, who made structure and someone to play with. I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty when playing with pets but I can also relax with a more shy pet!🩷 I work only two days out of the week so the rest could be filled up with taking care of pets, Saturdays and Sundays I'm usually at work but I only work 8 hours another day so that leaves more time to spend with fur babies. I have a fenced yard or a crate whichever one your dog prefers, I have sweet cats and a nice little dog that don't mind company especially other animals.

About: I am a passionate pet lover with a lifelong fondness for fluffy friends. While lacking formal experience, my genuine love for animals, nurtured by caring for my childhood pet and assisting friends with pet sitting, ensures a compassionate and reliable companion for your fluffy family members! 🫶🏾 I had a cat named Aspen for about 10 years as a child before she sadly was hit by a car. 😞 She was the most unique colored cat I’ve ever seen to this day and I miss her dearly. After Aspen passed away, my parents didn’t and still doesn’t allow us to buy/adopt another pet. 💔 Because of this, any chance I have to interact with an animal, I will take it! Once I found out about this app, I RAN to apply and got accepted quickly! 🥰 My parents do not like animals in the house, but after some hard convincing lol— they allowed me to watch my bestfriends dog for a couple a weeks as well as one of my other friends cat which we kept for 4 months because she went abroad! 😝 Although I personally do not have a pet myself, because of my relatives, I’ve always been around a range of different animals! 🐾 My boyfriend has had a pekapoo for as long as our relationship lol (3 years so far) which I always care for when I’m visiting him! 😊 He knows how I desperately long for one of my own therefore he lets me take care of her when I visit… which is very often. 😆 While I may lack formal professional experience and currently don't have a pet of my own due to circumstances beyond my control 😔, my deep love for animals, nurtured by cherished memories of Aspen and countless experiences caring for friends' pets, fuels my unwavering commitment to providing exceptional care for your furry family members 🙌🏾. I understand the importance of trust when it comes to entrusting your beloved pets to someone else's care, and I am here to alleviate any concerns or questions you may have 🫡. With me, your fur baby will receive nothing short of attentive, compassionate, and reliable care 😊. I would be honored to be entrusted with the well-being of your beloved pets, so please don't hesitate to reach out and book with me! Your furry friend's happiness and safety are my top priorities!🔝🫶🏾💕 I work for myself as an esthetician so my schedule is pretty flexible! As long as it is okay with the owner, I am able to stop by and sit mostly everyday! I have a big yard for playtime and nice neighborhood for walks. I like to keep things as tidy as possible especially when I’m someone else’s home.
About: I have had a couple of dogs in my lifetime and have realized that I love animals as if they were my own children. I can’t wait to watch your babies! I am currently a stay at home mom to my disabled son and daughter so I have plenty of time on my hands. I would love to fit your pets into my everyday life. I have a fenced in decent sized yard so there will be plenty of room for your babies to roam around instead of having to be on a leash. I do not kennel dogs in my home. They have free roam of my house.
About: ****I have base access!!!!**** I love animals. This is a job I would love to do to be around even more animals. I currently have 2 huskies, 1 golden retriever, and 1 mix breed. I have also owned Rottweilers before they passed. I’ve cared for animals since I could first walk. I’m flexible around my job. I’m very understanding and I’ll try to help you out with your pets in anyway that I can. If there’s something at your house you need me to do while I’m there please, just ask. I’m very adoring of animals. I’ve took care of cats, dogs, rabbits, and fish. ***Please, please make sure your pets are friendly.**** I’ll take care of any animal from newborn to senior pets with special dietary needs. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule. I have time throughout the date to adjust my schedule to cater to the needs of any family pet. I care for pets in my home, and yours, as if they are family. No unfairness , mistreatment, or non caring will occur when they are in my care.
About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for over 15 years. I grew up in a cat-loving home, where my parents welcomed seven cats into our family. My siblings and I all shared the responsibility of caring for them, so looking after animals has always been a part of my life. We also always had big dogs! Mastiffs, Labrador Retrievers, and a Standard Poodle, I’m very comfortable caring for both large and small breeds. Our newest family member, Penny the Chihuahua, has given me plenty of experience earning the trust of shy, skittish, anxious, and even grumpy little pups. I understand that some dogs and cats need a little extra time to feel comfortable, and I’m committed to respecting their boundaries while making them feel safe, loved, and cared for. Whether your pet is outgoing or a little more reserved, I’ll meet them where they are and give them the patience and kindness they deserve. To me, pets are so much more than animals, they’re family. While you’re away, I’ll care for your furry family member with the same love, attention, and respect that I would give my own, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands! Right now I work at a family-friend owned franchise and have very flexible hours. If i’m notified 2-1 week’s in advance I could have the entire day/days dedicated to taking care of your pup. If last minute pet care is needed, I can more than likely work my schedule around to help with your needs! I have a mostly fenced in yard and will be taking that fix into priority, I just don’t currently have the funds to finish the other side of the fence. Leashed walks and potty breaks will be the for front of my care until we are able to fix the fence. I am more than happy to stand on the curb side for 25 minutes while your pup sniffs the same concrete patch each walk, per the inconvenience 😅😂 I understand and have experience following feeding schedules so if you have list, please let me know and i’d be happy to follow!

“Kyrie has been doing a great job with my Brandi girl. This is her first time away with someone other than family members and she settled in really well with him. He has been extremely helpful to ease our parental worries too, along with giving tips about her harness and walking so she doesn't pull as much. He is calm and soft spoken which I feel really is comforting to her as well.”
“My wife and I like to take weekend trips as often as we can and Ray is our go to sitter in Macon. Our pup has anxiety issues and he does a great job caring for her. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing in house boarding!”
“Brittany was great! She communicated well throughout King and Dova’s stay. She provided me with pictures and videos of how they were doing. She spoiled them a little. I definitely think they enjoyed themselves! 🤭”
“Valerie did an excellent job of caring for my old girl while I was away. It gave me peace of mind knowing that my Princess was being cared for and given the attention she needed. I will book Valerie again and recommend her to anyone who is looking for a responsible, caring person to board their dog.”
“This has been the best imaginable experience. My dog is challenging (110 intense pounds), and he was skillfully introduced to the pack and welcomed into the home. My dog was loved, played with, exercised, and was never bored or lonely. I am beyond satisfied and will definitely be back. I even learned about a great new (to me) grooming tool. Thank you so much!!”
“McKenzie was the absolute sweetest to my Honey girl! She was very friendly, and kept me up to date on everything while my dog was in her care. She treated my baby like her own, and I couldn’t have been more happier with her service. Thank you again! We will be back.”
“This was my first time boarding or as I like to say sending my senior dog to“sleep-away camp,” and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Scheduling, drop-off, pick-up, and everything in between was seamless. Ms. Kim took such wonderful care of my girl and kept me updated the with photos and videos, which truly helped me relax while I was away. My dog had an absolute blast, and it was clear she was in experienced, caring hands. Kim’s communication, professionalism, and genuine love for animals made this whole experience exceptional. I’m so grateful and will absolutely be booking “camp” with her again!”
“Brishuna was great! I loved that she gave updates and sent pictures to keep me informed on how my pup was doing this was my first time being away from him and she made it a great experience I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Ms. Cindy was terrific!! Her communication before dropping her off, during our vacation and the picking up process was wonderful. This was our first time utilizing the Rover app, however Ms. Cindy put our minds at ease throughout the entire process. Her care of our beloved Chessie was top notch!! Very personable and helpful! We Highly recommend Ms. Cindy K.!”
“Dana and Brandon were great. Clean and welcoming environment. Kinda felt like dropping our fur-kid off at a friends house for the weekend. They stayed in touch with us and sent updates and pics. We will definitely be calling on them in the future and recommending them to our friends.”
“Thank you, Shaniece! You kept my furry baby so I could get some "me" time. I was able to enjoy my vacation even more when you sent a video, showing how much fun he was having. We'll see you again soon!”
“I love booking Julia when it comes to find a sitter for my pet. She's always great with her and I'm never concerned about my pet's well being because Julia sends me updates all the time. I highly recommend Julia as your pet sitter. She's always quick to respond even on short notices. Thank you so much Julia for caring for my pet!”
“Kristin is amazing. She kept me informed of our 3 fur babies throughout the week I was gone. I received daily pictures of what they were doing. I will definitely use her again!!!!”
“Another FUN time for Fiona. She obviously played hard with Roo because she slept like a log all night when she got home. I was pleased to see that Fiona got a lot of one-on-one attention. I loved getting the photos of her playing or relaxing.”
“Kayla did a great job with my precious Honey - a 3 year old American Terrier Pit Bull. Honey received so much love and attention. Pictures and updates came around the clock. I will be booking her in the future.”
“Brodie seemed to enjoy his time with Dylan, his dogs, and his young son ! Frequent updates and pictures were sent. They have a big backyard perfect for for playing fetch and running around !”
“Awesome sitter! They took great care of my two dogs for five days and kept me updated throughout the stay with daily messages and updates on how they were doing. It was clear that my dogs were happy and well taken care of, which made me feel much more comfortable being away from them. No complaints at all, and I would absolutely book with them again when we need a sitter. Highly recommend!”
“I always worry when I board Sebastien because you always hear horror stories. It's not a facility you can go in and inspect, so you rely on reviews and scrutinize profiles and hope for the best. I didn't worry about Sebastien at all after meeting Adria. She was personable and detail oriented and the exterior of her home was clean and well maintained. She sent pictures and updates and gave me notes on his food. She was also not overwhelmed by his high energy antics. He came home happy and clean! It's such a relief to find someone trustworthy, and I highly recommend!”
