“Cheryl was very accommodating to our senior 16 yr old beagle and her special needs (meds and soiling pads) while we were away for 2 nights. She sent us updates and pictures daily which was appreciated. If you want someone who really cares about animals, she is highly recommended by us. We will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“We have never left Walter with anyone and Tanya and her family took care of him like he was their own. She kept in contact with me to let me know how he doing which I greatly appreciated! He has lots of energy and he is a tired pup after his doggy vacation! We will be using Tanya again!”
“Great dog lover! I boarded my dog With Alyssa for almost 3 weeks and she was very flexible with me and sent me pictures while I was away. She really cared for my dog and I would definitely choose her again.”

About: For over 10 years, I loved and cared for my own beloved dogs before they passed away a few years ago, and for the past 4 years, I have been occasionally sitting for my neighbor's dog. I have a 6-year-old daughter and a 7-year-old son who share my deep love for animals, so your pup will get plenty of gentle affection and enthusiastic playtime from our family! In our home, your fur baby will have a secure, fenced yard to explore. Whether they prefer high-energy fun or just lounging around and getting belly rubs, we adapt to whatever makes your dog feel safest and most comfortable. I am a Special Education teacher currently on summer break, which means I have a highly flexible schedule and open availability! My own children are in summer camp Monday through Friday during the day, giving me plenty of dedicated, uninterrupted time to focus entirely on your pet's routine, walks, and care. I am available for boarding and daytime companionship, ensuring your fur baby gets plenty of attention and love. As a SPED teacher, I bring patience, structure, and deep reliability into my pet care. I offer a very secure environment with a fully fenced yard for safe playtime. Because my husband works night shifts and sleeps during the day, our home maintains a wonderfully calm, quiet, and peaceful atmosphere during the daytime hours—perfect for dogs who get stressed by loud noises. In the evenings and weekends, my 6 and 7-year-old children join the fun, and they are incredibly gentle and respectful animal lovers. Your pet will receive 100% of our family's care and focus!
“Madi took amazing care of our dog, Chipotle. Being gone multiple days isn’t something he’s used to, and the updates with pictures showed he was obviously calm and relaxed. Thank you for your awesome care and attention to Chipotle!!”
“Sasha does a great job watching Peggy for me when I need to go out of town! Peggy loves Sasha and was very excited for her to pick her up for this visit. Sasha makes sure to take good care of Peggy and to give her lots of love ❤️.”
“My dog was very well cared for and came home from his 4 day stay happy and tired! Halie sent pics and videos everyday. It was obvious he was very comfortable and felt right at home. He can be anxious especially when away from home so I am super happy with Halie!”
“Not only was this my first time using Rover but this was also my first time boarding my dog ever so I was feeling nervous and worried about the experience. I’m so glad I chose Jordan and Cody to watch Odie for a week! They are clearly dog people and took such wonderful care of my boy. They sent daily updates with photos and were super responsive whenever I had a question. They even took Odie on a field trip out to their family’s farm where he helped in the garden and help gather chicken eggs! He had so much to say when I picked him up! I will definitely be booking Jordan and Cody again and highly recommend you do too!”
About: I have cared for my friends and families pets while they were away for multiple years. I have experience with grooming, feeding and walking multiple breeds of dogs. I will spend plenty of quality time with your fur baby to help keep them both mentally and physically healthy while you are away. I have a special place in my heart for cats. So if you have a kitten or adult cat that needs someone to check in on them and a little play time then I would love the opportunity to get to know them. I currently work a full time job with day shift hours. I would be able to care for your fur baby on evenings or weekends. Occasionally a couple days during the week. I have a large fenced in back yard with plenty of room for my pup to run. My daughter and I enjoy evening walks with our pup and bathing her weekly.

“Lideah did a fantastic job with my cat, Sophie Marie. I can't tell you how pleased I am with all she did. She housesat for me and my house was spotless and, more importantly, I could tell Sophie was well cared for while I was away. I hope to ask Lideah in the future to take care of Sophie Marie.”

About: I grew up on a farm with pretty much every animal you can think of, including some exotics. I’ve spent many years raising my own animals (cats, dogs,rabbits, snakes, horses, etc) and have also done the same helping out with our friends and family’s pets. I love animals and honestly wish I could bring them all home but I can’t, so this is the next best thing! I can walk your pet on a leash and crate them when needed. I also have 1 friendly dog and 4 friendly kids to keep your fur baby company! If they need a bath I can also do that too! They will be fed, watered and spoiled rotten! I currently work for a job that I can work both in office and remote so my schedule is pretty flexible and can be open to accommodate anyone’s needs. We always maintain water, keep on their feed schedule as well as any grooming schedules they may have. Lots of play time inside and outside.
About: I have been taking care of dogs other than my own since I was about 8. Family, friends and neighbors have always relied on me to care for their pets whenever they need. I am comfortable with any size, age, or breed of dog there is! I have went through training with my dog, so I know what its like to take care of any dog from highly energized to very lazy, untrained or highly trained. I have taken care of two litters of puppies at the same time - 16 total puppies! - so I can handle whatever is thrown my way. I am currently taking online college classes full-time and working part-time, so I have plenty of extra time to spend with your pets, whether that is going on walks or just hanging out while I do my schoolwork! I have a fenced in yard and a 3 year old doggo at home if needed to keep your pet entertained. I also have a dog park and plenty of room to go on walks or runs with your pet. I like to stay active so I try to take my dog out on 1-2 walks a day since he needs his exercise!
“I cannot overstate how grateful I am for Sophee! She really went above and beyond in her care and treatment of my cat Nuka when I had to stay out of town much longer than expected. She was exceptionally kind and understanding and she really took my stress level down a couple of notches ?❤️. Thank you, thank you, thank you!”
About: I’ve taken care of neighbors and friends cats for several years. Every cat has their specific needs and traits as we all know. Litter boxes. Shots, cat food and play time are all basic tasks
About: I’ve volunteered at various Vet Clinics with over 2 years experience. I'm currently attending Prairie View A&M University in pursuit of research in Animal Psychology I’m currently just in school so have a lot of extra time to spend with my new furry friends, available most days early mornings & afternoons. I prefer to care for your furry friend in clients home but can provide mine if needed. I have plenty of walkways near my home to walk and 2 munchkins of my own that can play with your friend as well!
About: I grew up on a farm in Kansas, have a degree in Biology and have been around animals my entire life. Anyone who knows me, will attest that I pay lots of attention to their pets. I have been asked to watch houses and pets for years by family and friends who don't trust anyone else. I have kept dogs, cats, sheep, cows, ducks, fish, reptiles, spiders, insects, birds and lizards as pets. I normally work a 9-5 schedule Monday through Friday and live alone in Rose Hill, KS. Most evenings I go for a walk when it cools down because I love being outdoors. On my walks, I usually end up petting several neighborhood dogs and cats that eagerly await my attention. In general, I try to observe and match the energy level and interests of a particular pet. My day job involves going into lots of homes with pets. I get plenty of practice meeting new pets and needing to win them over fast.
“Alayna was very attentive to my 3 shy cats, they quickly bonded with her while I was gone for over a week. Alayna shared detailed updates and photos, and took care of all their needs and would reach out for any questions. I will definitely book her again on future trips!”
About: I've been an animal lover since I was four when my first dog came into my life :) I started pet sitting for family and friends when I was around ten, and it's been something I've loved doing ever since. I've cared for all types of pets - from puppies to senior dogs, cats of all personalities, turtles, fish, and even some farm animals! I have no problem giving medications - I've given insulin injections to diabetic dogs many times and understand how important it is to stick to medication schedules. I understand how pets thrive on their familiar routines and environment. I'll make sure to maintain their schedule and send you updates with plenty of photos while you're away :) I know firsthand that there’s nothing better than seeing your pets happy and relaxed when you can't be with them! I work remotely and choose my own hours, so my schedule is quite flexible! I’m a bit of a night owl naturally, so I especially love taking fur babies for evening walks, but any time I get to care for an animal is a great time :) I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, turtles, chickens, and everything in between for over ten years now, so I have experience handling almost every situation that could come about :) I’ve administered insulin via injection to dogs, fed both cats and dogs pills, cleaned up after them if there are any accidents, placed them in (and taken them out of) crates gently and calmly, and generally whatever was necessary to ensure that every pet in my care is happy and well taken care of.
About: I’ve taken care of pets, especially dogs since my parents brought home my first dog when I was a little kid. I’m used to the responsibility of taking care of animals and making sure they are fed, walked and happy. I’ve also walked looked after dogs for relatives and neighbors who were away since I was a kid. I work from home on the weekdays. I work for myself as well and like to take breaks by walking around my neighborhood so it’s easy for me to find time for your pet. I’m available most the weekend as well unless something unexpected comes up. I have a one room apartment near college hill park, it’s an ideal location for dog walking, as it’s a very safe and walkable neighborhood. Being in a small space makes boarding a little difficult (which is why I charge more for it) but it is doable.
About: My experience with cats is not extremely long but pretty decent. A few of my college friends have cats and I have watched their cats for them before. I am well aware of cleaning a litter box, giving medication and also being attentive when the cat needs something.

Alyssa was understanding and accommodating and went above and beyond to still help us as we scheduled a recasting. She was responsive & even sent pictures of our girl being loved on during the day. We would recommend Alyssa’s care to anyone!”
“Cheryl is responsive, dependable, & actively engaged our dog in her care. We appreciated the meet & greet prior to our dog’s daycare & the report following our dog’s stay. We’ll be contacting Cheryl again!”

I always used Rover when i lived in Florida and always had a good experience , I could find someone last minute and the app is very user friendly .I am a nurse and due to the pandemic I work long hours and weekends . Halie was very accommodating and my fur baby Gizmo really liked her . I am always nervous when I have to leave Gizmo , Halie was very reassuring and I felt comfortable with her . She sent me updates and pics while I was at work to keep me informed . I will definitely be using Halle again to watch Gizmo , she is awesome !”

About: I have had a love for pets since I was a child. I have house/pet sat for years now and would love to expand that. I can do pet sitting, walking, baths, anything your pet needs!! I take online classes and just recently got laid off so my schedule is wide open! I would love to come hangout with your furry friends! At my house I have a 4 year old pup who loves to chill. In your home I would love to learn about what works for you and the guidelines you have, I try my best to go above and beyond when meeting those!
About: I have cared for my friends and families pets while they were away for multiple years. I have experience with grooming, feeding and walking multiple breeds of dogs.

About: I am currently working in the Veterinary field as a Kennel technician. I take care of many different animals all day by walking, feeding, bathing, observing their health, etc!

Cats, dogs, rodents, farm animals, you name it! I own 2 cats, and a chinchilla. I currently work part time, as I am a college student, so I do have plenty of time to watch over your animals! I will hopefully be getting a full time job soon, so my hours will most likely be set to weekends within a few months. I do not offer services at my home, as I have pets myself. But I am trained in taking care of your animals to ensure that they are as stress free as possible. Having a fenced in yard would be fantastic, but if you do not have one that is fine too!

About: I’ve been in love with animals for as long as I can remember, I grew up with multiple dogs in my home along with a few cats and fish. I even bought my own dog as soon as I moved out! I currently watch my own dog, my household family pets at my dads, and my household family pets at my moms when they are out of town. I am a full time student doing online classes and I work a part time job, leaving my schedule to be very flexible. I’m happy to visit your fur babies whenever is best for your schedule, whether that’s feeding, walking, or cleaning your pets while you’re at work or off on a trip. I will gladly send photos or videos updates on your fur babies. I am also happy to play with them using their favorite toys and don’t mind spending extra time for snuggle sessions while I’m there. Again I am a full time online college student and I work a part time job maybe 3-4 days a week mostly night shifts, being 4 pm-closing time. I have family pets and both my moms household and my dad’s household that I’ve cared for when I lived in both homes and while my family is at work or away, plus I also bought my own dog when I moved out which I care for on a daily basis.

About: I have spent my whole life surrounded by cats and dogs, both my own and others and have an intense passion for caring for animals the right way! I have basic care skills, but can ensure diligence, active and engaging time spent with your animals, timely care, and commitment to following care guidelines to a T. I know what it’s like to leave your animals in the care of someone else. My personal pet sitters are accustomed to abnormally and intensely detailed printed guidelines with care instructions for my animals, so regardless of how detailed your care instructions are, I have the aptitude to follow them in their entirety plus more to the best of my abilities! I am a medical student in my first year, so I do have the ability to have more control of my schedule. I will continually update my time availability to be accurate weekly. I will not commit something that I cannot guarantee availability for! I will only be able to give care in your home due to living in an apartment complex and having animals of my own. But in caring for my own animals, I am quite neurotic in how detailed and specifically I care for them. I make sure my animals have daily mental and exercise stimulation through playing with toys, walking, and engagement with me and each other. I am adamant about giving my animals affection, and provide them meals in a timely and measured way. I brush all of my animals teeth daily, walk my dogs daily, and clean my cats litter box at least twice a day. I am very attuned to subtleties and changes in my animals behavior to ensure that they are in good health! I want to give my animals the best life and care possible just as I will do for your animals!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 5 when I fully trained my Cocker Spaniel dog. I potty trained her and taught her to climb stairs when she was only a puppy. After that I learned tricks and educated myself how to feed them correctly. My family and friends trust me their fur babies to bath them and walk them when they don’t have the time. I also clip the nails and play the groomer with small and medium dogs. I enjoy playing with them but I also practice discipline with dogs. I am a freelancer working from home which means I always going to have time to play with your pups! For boarding I am available all week whenever you need. If my availability ever changes you will be notified. I live in an apartment with a green area where dogs can play. I will be moving to base housing soon so they will count with a big yard to run and play. I have a whiny dog to keep your dog company. They are free to spend time on furniture and beds.

About: For over 10 years, I loved and cared for my own beloved dogs before they passed away a few years ago, and for the past 4 years, I have been occasionally sitting for my neighbor's dog. I have a 6-year-old daughter and a 7-year-old son who share my deep love for animals, so your pup will get plenty of gentle affection and enthusiastic playtime from our family! In our home, your fur baby will have a secure, fenced yard to explore. Whether they prefer high-energy fun or just lounging around and getting belly rubs, we adapt to whatever makes your dog feel safest and most comfortable. I am a Special Education teacher currently on summer break, which means I have a highly flexible schedule and open availability! My own children are in summer camp Monday through Friday during the day, giving me plenty of dedicated, uninterrupted time to focus entirely on your pet's routine, walks, and care. I am available for boarding and daytime companionship, ensuring your fur baby gets plenty of attention and love. As a SPED teacher, I bring patience, structure, and deep reliability into my pet care. I offer a very secure environment with a fully fenced yard for safe playtime. Because my husband works night shifts and sleeps during the day, our home maintains a wonderfully calm, quiet, and peaceful atmosphere during the daytime hours—perfect for dogs who get stressed by loud noises. In the evenings and weekends, my 6 and 7-year-old children join the fun, and they are incredibly gentle and respectful animal lovers. Your pet will receive 100% of our family's care and focus!

I will spend plenty of quality time with your fur baby to help keep them both mentally and physically healthy while you are away. I have a special place in my heart for cats.
