“Fantastic work. Anna took care of our two cats for a week while we were gone on vacation. She stayed in communication, took good pictures and handled all the random cat chaos without any problems. I could not be happier with her work. Highly recommend.”
“I highly recommend Ali’s services. I was looking for a sitter who not only loves my cats as her own but understands subtle changes in their health during my vacation. One of my cats is over 12 years old so I needed a sitter with veterinary skills and knowledges. I am glad that I have chosen Ali for my cats and will ask her again for next vacations. Her services are beyond my expectations.”
“Allison was a fantastic sitter for our cat Millie! She was very attentive and communicative throughout our trip with daily updates. I knew that Millie was in good hands and she sure showed it once we returned home. Will book again!”
“Mackenzie is super reliable and I trust them to give my dog the care she needs and be in my home while I’m at work! I love getting the videos and pictures that they send me”
“Sam was/ is amazing! She took amazing care of my cat and sent adorable pictures throughout his stay with her ? she went above and beyond and I’m super grateful she accepted to watch him! ❤️”

About: I’ve had a dog in the house since I was 5. I’ve dog sat 2 pit bulls while I also babysat 2 kids when I was just 14 for 12 hours a day. I currently dog sit for my mom all the time. I taught my dog how to rollover, speak, spin, and more all while being a single mom with a little baby! I’m currently staying at home taking care of my son and will be home all day every day for the most part. I can give your fur baby as much attention as they need, take them on walks, play fetch, or reinforce training and positive behavior. I don’t have a fenced yard but I have a long leash to let my dogs run a bit and stay outside for a while if they would like. I also have a little kiddie pool for them to play in for hot summer days. My dogs also enjoy chasing water straight from the hose! I always pay attention to make sure they never get overheated. At your house I would try to follow your typical routine so it feels natural for your fur baby!

About: I have had anywhere from 1-5 dogs at a time my whole life. I have had many breed and all age ranges from 8 weeks to 15 years old. I have a handful of pet/house sitting experience and looking for more opportunities! I have a full time job and have my own business so my schedule can be kind of busy, but, I try to make everything work! Reach out and I’ll fit you into my schedule! I work overnights in other peoples home as one of my jobs, so I have experience in respecting other peoples spaces. I am willing to adapt to your home situation/rules whether that’s fence, no fence, on/off leash, etc. I will give your animals lots of love and treat them as my own.
About: Hi! I’m a teacher and lifelong animal lover who enjoys spending time with pets and keeping them comfortable, safe, and happy. I bring a calm, patient, and reliable presence, and I’m very comfortable following routines and special instructions. My background as a teacher means I’m organized, responsible, and attentive to small details. I enjoy walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel at ease while their owners are away! Pet care fits well into my routine during summer break since I have a much more flexible schedule. I’m able to plan my days around walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting with plenty of availability in both the morning and afternoon! I enjoy being active and outdoors, so incorporating pet care into my day feels natural and easy to manage while giving pets my full attention. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and making sure they get plenty of attention and companionship.
“Booked for dog walking and I am confident my dog also gives her 5 stars. My dog loved Ali immediately, first sight. Ali is attentive to her and clearly skilled with her. My dog is intelligent and PARTICULAR about leaving me. Notoriously bad at taking commands from strangers. When Ali arrived for just the second walk, my dog was loving her and ready to head out at the first sight of her. And my dog gets long walks every day the weather allows, so walking alone is not the draw here. Ali communicates beautifully with me as an owner, does great follow-up when she returns from the walk, and clearly loves what she does. No complaints in my house. I don't generally leave my dog care to anyone else, but Ali”
About: I love dogs so much, I got paw prints tattooed on my wrist! I am only working part time at the moment, so I am extremely flexible with meeting the special needs of your furry friend. I have been caring for family fur babies ever since I can remember. I have cared for dogs, cats, birds, pigs, horses, snakes, tarantulas—if you can own it, I have fed, watered, and loved it at some point! It wasn’t until I moved away that I realized how much I miss having that in my life. With Rover, I hope to make my days a little brighter, while giving your pet everything he/she needs to be just as happy. I’ll love them (almost) as much as you do! Thank you for reading!
“Allison was terrific! She helped out on short notice and went above and beyond to make everything work. The dogs love her. She is a great communicator. Very professional and responsive. Highly recommend!!”
“Racheal is such a wonderful human! We love that she is part of our lives, and she is adored by my greyhound, Bobbie Sue. We view her as family, and would recommend her to everyone for assistance with their pet. :)”
About: Since I was a teenager we had cats and dogs. I love to be with the Russian blue kittens/cats we have. We also had three Akitas dogs and went on walks in nature around our yard. I’m currently looking for a job, as I have extra time. Looking for dog and kitten sitting to create a safe environment for them! Create a safe environment for the dogs/kittens! Make sure they well taken care of! I can cuddle and have fun with your pets as you’d like!
About: Prices are negotiable. I understand when having multiple dogs it racks up to a lot. I am willing to work with you on prices. I’ve had a dog since I was 8 years old. My love for dogs is never ending. I have been taking care of other peoples dogs since I was 19. I’m available to stay with your dog. I am not available to bring your dog to my house. I believe dogs do best in their own environment with all their toys and their own area. I currently work full time for a daycare in Polk City. I work 10hr days Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. On the weekends I like to take my sister’s dog for a walk unless I am watching someone else dog I will take that dog on a walk if able to. Majority of the dogs I watch stay at home because they know that area better. Anxiety is very common in dogs that get boarded or are away from home.
