“Highly recommend Julia. She helped me out last minute and kept me informed throughout stay. Shared pictures and videos. My dog had a blast playing with her dogs and she embraced my high energy pup.”
“Anyone who uses Melinda will find her to be a very caring, loving, compassionate person when it comes to watching your pet. After having Melinda watch Kayda I will not have anyone else watch her. In fact I'm travelling next week and she is booked so I decided to take Kayda with me. Had Melinda been available I would have utilized her again. Both Kayda and I are extremely pleased with Melinda and Rover.”

They did it on only a few hours notice, provided exemplary care, and even delivered them to me when I finally arrived in town. I’d use Amy and Aaron again in a heartbeat.”
“Tori and Malik were great! The first picture posted let me know Bonnie was very comfortable. They had a beautiful area to walk her and I could tell she was having a great time. So appreciative of their caring and loving feelings toward my Bon! A million thanks.”

About: Welcome! ✨ My name is Eve, and your fur babies will feel right at home here 💛 I’ve cared for animals my entire life and have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I currently live on a farm in Makanda with my partner, where we share our home with horses, chickens, ducks, pigs, rabbits, five friendly farm dogs, and two farm cats. Our animals are well-socialized and love meeting new furry friends and people alike. Your pets will have plenty of space to play and explore, with a fenced backyard and lots of open acreage to enjoy safely. We take daily walks around the property, provide lots of love and attention, and enjoy sending photo updates throughout your pet’s stay so you can feel connected while you’re away. No worries if your fur babes can’t come stay with us — I’m also available to travel to you and care for them in the comfort of their own home while you’re away ✨ I treat every animal like family and strive to create a calm, loving, and comfortable environment for each guest 💛 I work from home, mostly available everyday of the week. I can check on your pet throughout the day for walks or simply for hang time. If needed, I’m able to provide animals the proper medication for their individual needs. I’ll always ensure that your fur babies are safe and given adequate attention! I love to give periodic picture updates while going on walks or during play time.

About: Looking for an experienced animal sitter or affordable daycare that is flexible? Woof, I am your gal! From 13 years of combined dog training and behavioral training, I may as well be an animal mind reader! My approaches to pet care are holistic and it doesn't get more organic than loving and working with animals. I've also had many years of experience with small animals, fish and reptiles. If you need a small sitter, I'm all yours! MEET & GREET: I do my meet and greets differently than most. I have TWO meet and greets. The first is with owners alone for a tour of my house, going over routines and any additional care and concerns. This is very helpful as exciting dogs barking can be overwhelming. The second meet and greet is at a basic place like a park or OUTSIDE of dog park. My schedule and routine is pretty flexible, yet still manageable and structured. My daycare hours are Mon-Fri from 8AM to 5:30PM, though I can work around your schedule only on those days. Boarding is available 7 days a week during the night with check in times anywhere 2PM to 7PM, checkouts 8AM next day unless specified otherwise (in the event I am unavailable with a week advance notice). Dog walks and dog check-ins are only Saturday evenings, various hours. BITE POLICY: I understand that accidents happen and I am equipped to handle a bite from a dog/cat as well as ensure the safety of animal to animal bites. If your pet bites me, another person or pet, I will immediately contact you with details of the event. I will report ALL bites to Rover. Depending on the situation, someone will need to pick up pet(s) within 6 hours of contact and bite. It is up to Rover to issue a refund depending on circumstances. You MUST book your request through Rover and MUST pay via Rover for them to ensure a refund. I will NOT refund if you have paid via CashApp, check, Venmo, cash, etc. if you are required to pick up your pet(s). If I assess the situation and feel it's risky to board/sit your pet I will decline future requests. NOTE: You MUST book/CONFIRM your requests via ROVER! When you send your requests to me, I will book it and you must confirm via Rover in order for me to watch your pets. Pending request will be denied of service. NOTE: Boarding is charged by the NIGHT. For example, if you request for me to board your pets Jan 8th thru Jan 17th, they MUST be picked up ON the 17th, not the next day on Jan 18th. Please factor in how late you will arrive and if it's the next day you will have to pay for that night. This works just like a hotel stay. You will be charged a $20 fee for each pet if you need to extend stays. NOTE: Please make sure your pets are free from fleas and parasites! Upon meet and greet provide proof of recent medication, vet summaries, and other remedies. I no longer provide daycare services, only boarding, walks, and check ins. I currently have 5 cats and 1 dog. Walking and at home check ins are anywhere from 1-3 hours Sat evenings. I will walk around neighborhood only if a safe and trusted area. I also will care for cat in home visits. All required is specific walking and care instructions.
