I felt my dog was in good hands while in Jill’s care. She provided updates including pictures to let me know that all was well. She takes extra steps to ensure dogs are safe and happy. My dog was right at home in Jill’s comfortable and safe home. I am happy I found Jill as a dog sitter, I will use her again and would recommend her services to others.

Joy (and Gus) were gracious hosts for our Hattie girl! This was our first Rover experience and it couldn’t have been better. Joy was super responsive and easy to communicate with. She cared well for Hattie, playing with her, walking her, and sharing pictures and updates throughout her stay. We won’t hesitate to use Joy again and I’m sure Gus won’t mind either. 😁

Jackie took amazing care of Daisy while I was away for the weekend. She came back happy and calmer than I expected as she is a very high anxiety dog. Definitely will be using Jackie’s boarding services again! Thank you so much☺️

About: Lifelong Animal Lover with a Passion for Pet Care I’ve been surrounded by pets my entire life and understand the love and commitment they deserve. My two beloved dogs lived long, happy lives—15 and 17 years—before passing in the past two years. Living on 3 acres in the country, I love taking peaceful walks along our dirt road, making it the perfect setting for dogs who enjoy fresh air and space to explore. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, or extra TLC, I’ll treat them like my own with plenty of love and attention! I’m currently working full time M-F but I do work close enough to home to be able to swing home over lunch for quick walks/potty breaks! A Safe, Loving, and Stress-Free Experience for Your Pet Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. With a lifetime of experience caring for animals, I provide a trustworthy and nurturing environment where your pet will feel comfortable and secure. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’m committed to providing personalized care, whether it’s a relaxing walk, playtime, or extra snuggles. Living in the country on a few acres, I offer plenty of space for safe outdoor adventures, fresh air, and exercise. I always prioritize safety—whether through secure leashes on walks, attentive supervision, or a calm and familiar routine to ease any anxiety. You can trust that your pet will be treated like family, with love, patience, and respect.

About: Lifelong animal experience – I’ve cared for animals my entire life, not just as a job but as a way of life. • Real dog-owner perspective – With 2 dogs of my own, I understand routines, energy levels, training reinforcement, and emotional needs. • Calm, patient care – Great for shy, anxious, senior, or high-energy dogs who need consistency and understanding. • Individualized attention – I don’t do “one-size-fits-all” care. Walks, play, feeding, and downtime are tailored to your dog. • Trust & reliability – I show up on time, follow instructions closely, and communicate clearly so you can relax while you’re away. • Home-style love – Your dog is treated like family, not a booking. Hi! I’m Shelbie, a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all personalities. I live in a peaceful rural area with plenty of space for play, walks, and safe adventures. Your furry friend will get the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away! Dog Boarding (In My Home – Female Dogs Only) For the safety and comfort of all pets in my care, I only board female dogs. My Australian Shepherd has a strong personality, and keeping our home harmonious means I cannot accept male dogs. Female pups are always welcome, and they’ll receive lots of love, playtime, and cuddles in a safe, home environment. I work full-time from 8–5, but I’m happy to stop by during my lunch break for local drop-ins to take your sweet guy or girl out for a potty break, walk, or some love. I’m available after 5 PM, all day on Wednesdays, and all weekends. I’m reliable, flexible, and always happy to work with your pet’s routine whenever possible. I care for pets with patience, consistency, and lots of love—whether in my home or yours. While I don’t have a yard yet, I live close to a dog park and provide plenty of walks, playtime, and mental stimulation to keep dogs happy and exercised. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, play, and downtime. Safety and comfort always come first, and I make sure pets get individual attention, affection, and enrichment. In your home, I respect your space while ensuring your pet feels secure and relaxed in their familiar environment. I’m attentive, reliable, and treat every pet as if they were my own.

About: Animals have always been apart of my life growing up my parents bred English mastiff and pugs. I showed dogs in 4-H for 4 years and it really helped me amass so much knowledge. I have extensive experience with senior dogs and they hold a very special place in my heart. With us your senior will be in the best of hands. I don’t have a regular 9-5 so most of my day is spent home with the pups. I have my dogs on a specific feeding/potty schedule but I am very flexible to make your pup feel as comfortable as possible. I like to think I treat them as one of my one while keeping in mind if the owner has and rules or requests of their own.

I currently work two part time jobs, one more part time then the other but I'm available on weekends and wednesdays and weekdays after 3pm.

Or just a calm presence and cozy companionship? I’m your girl. I treat every cat with respect, gentleness, and lots of love—because cats deserve care that feels safe, familiar, and stress-free.

About: I've had cats pretty much my whole life. For the longest time, I preferred them over dogs! However, I'm to the point in my life where I love both dogs and cats equally. 🥰 When I worked at Ames Pet Resort in Ames, IA, they offered lodging for cats so I took care of many different kitties. From mean, to anxious, to super lovey dovey ones! I've also given them their medicines, though needles are a little tough for me with cats... but I'm very willing to learn! I currently have my own house cat and she's my little baby. 🥰 She loves to snuggle with me right away in the morning and right before bed. I got her from a farm down in Iowa and it took her a few days to get used to me and my dog, but once she was used to us, she was following us around the apartment everywhere! And now that I live in a house, she has a whole house to explore and a new kitty to play with! After I got Athena, I got her spayed and updated on her shots. She didn't like taking her medicine, but she let me do it anyway, which I was super thankful for at the time since I worked a lot at the time. I love to play with her whenever I get the chance, and my dog often joins us in play time. ❤️

This is the first time we have had a dog sitter. Joy is knowledgeable and competent . She has a happy, laid back personality that I am certain is noticed by all her furry customers. Joy communicates well with texts, photos, and even a little video. These efforts made our day of biking relaxing and fun, just as planned.

Haylee was amazing with Darla. She was our first pet sitter on a 3 week long summer vacation. This is the first time we are traveling with our little Darla, and the first time to leave her with a pet sitter. That being said, we have to say, that Haylee absolutely put our minds at ease from the very beginning when we had our first video chat with her. After meeting her in person, we fell in love. She was super accommodating when our plans changed and had no issues with the possibility of changing from a doggy day care to a over night sleep over. Thank you again Haylee. We plan to call Haylee again the next time we are in MN. =)

About: We are empty nesters after losing our last dog to cancer. We are looking to fill that void but don’t want to commit to a permanent dog. Smaller dogs is what we preferred in our home. My daughter and daughter-in-law own a large dog boarding center up in Minot, ND. When our 5 kids come home all the grand dogs come with them. Thru our marriage years our family always had dogs and they all had a great life. Marilyne works part time, 3 days a week and Albert is retired and is home all day. We will be home to take care of the dogs. We have a clean and organized home with vinyl planking flooring. The dog will not be running lose and will be on a leased to go potty. We like to go for walks and take a ride on the golf cart.

This was our first time using Rover with Nala bc she is very timid but she warmed up and fit right in. We'll definitely be booking again if we're in Myrtle. We came to visit and had to bring her at the last minute. Thank you so much, Jocelyn!

About: I love dogs and I’m a stay at home mom to 3 young children, 2 dogs, and a cat so I have lots of availability and flexibility. I am always available through text and can respond within a few minutes! I will give your pet(s) all the attention they need - all the pats and cuddles they could possibly want. I have a very active dog so I’m used to spending lots of time outside already! Whether at the park, just in the backyard, or going for walk/runs. My mother has trained dogs in the past and I have plenty of tips and tricks from her to be able to handle pretty much any dog - no matter how difficult. I love cats, I am allergic to ones with longer fur though so I would prefer not to spend too much time around them! I have a domestic shorthair that I’m perfectly fine with though. I’ve taken care of neighbor’s pets since I was a kid and really love any that I get a chance to love on. We have a large fenced yard for boarding! I’m a stay at home mom, so I spend all day playing with my son and daughters, two dogs, and cat. My husband works from home and can care for our animals while I care for yours! If you require my services between 8-4pm, there’s a chance I might need to bring my kids with. While inside your home they can stay in their stroller - I won’t let them roam! But because of this I do request that your pets are kid-friendly during those hours. After 4pm I will be alone though! I’m able to care for your pets pretty much however you need - feeding, walking, playing, or some light training. I love when people leave me detailed instructions so I can do my best to treat your pets exactly as you would!

About: I have had at least one dog to take care of since I was 10 years old, and my extended family has always had numerous additional dogs. I feed, give water to, and entertain multiple dogs, of multiple sizes, on a daily basis. I have been responsible for a variety of breeds, as well as both indoor dogs and outdoor farm dogs. Raising sheep and working on horse/cattle farms throughout my middle and high school years has taught me how to care for all kinds of animals, big and small. I am currently waiting to ship out for Navy boot camp, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m available most days of the week. If overnight care is needed, my roommates are able to look after my dogs, which allows me to stay with pets for extended periods when required. I care for pets based on what they need most. Sometimes that means simply being there to keep them company, letting them out, feeding them, and spending time playing or relaxing with them. Other times it can mean giving a little extra attention and monitoring for pets who need more care.

About: I can provide a safe quiet home for your pet to visit when you’re away. I work from home and spend the days with our almost 8 year old boxer mix, Aggie. We love taking walks to the park near our home and we have a small fenced in back yard with a privacy fence. Aggie gets along with almost every dog and will sometimes play. She can be pretty vocal when she plays but is otherwise super quiet. She’s a great role model for younger dogs :) I work from home so I am usually home with the pets for most of the day. We take daily walks when the weather is good. We have a large dog crate if your dog needs. Our yard is fenced in and dogs wouldn’t usually be home alone for more than a few hours.

About: I'm a teacher and an animal lover! I'm great at caring for others. 😄 We have two friendly cats and would love to host some dogs. I'm available most weekends and all summer. I'm available to board your pet most weekends! You can always reach out even if my schedule says not available.

About: Hi! I’m Madison, a lifelong dog lover with over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I grew up with several different breeds and I’m confident handling dogs with all kinds of personalities — from shy seniors to high-energy puppies. What makes me different? I’m comfortable administering medications and recognizing signs of stress or discomfort. I also treat every dog like my own — with patience, joy, and tons of belly rubs. I believe walks should be safe, stimulating, and full of tail wags! Whether your pup needs a short potty break, a jog around the block, or just a new friend to hang out with, I’m here to help. Why Clients Love Me:     •    Always punctual and reliable     •    Updates with photos and fun notes after every walk     •    Flexible scheduling and last-minute availability • Training is also another option I like to throw out there With my job I’m also in Alexandria area often every week as well! Let’s get your dog’s tail wagging — I’d love to meet your furry friend/family member! I clean house’s, so my schedule is almost the same everyday unless clients need to move cleanings around. I’m typically off before 4pm everyday and some days earlier. I have an almost 3 year old dog that I’ve had since he was born. I had 2 litters of puppies so I’ve had experience in training 15 puppies! He is my pride and joy. He is very spoiled and loves to play ball. I would treat your dog as if it were my own. I have a huge heart & love to be around dogs of all sizes!

I felt my dog was in good hands while in Jill’s care. She provided updates including pictures to let me know that all was well. She takes extra steps to ensure dogs are safe and happy. My dog was right at home in Jill’s comfortable and safe home. I am happy I found Jill as a dog sitter, I will use her again and would recommend her services to others.

Joy (and Gus) were gracious hosts for our Hattie girl! This was our first Rover experience and it couldn’t have been better. Joy was super responsive and easy to communicate with. She cared well for Hattie, playing with her, walking her, and sharing pictures and updates throughout her stay. We won’t hesitate to use Joy again and I’m sure Gus won’t mind either. 😁

Jackie took amazing care of Daisy while I was away for the weekend. She came back happy and calmer than I expected as she is a very high anxiety dog. Definitely will be using Jackie’s boarding services again! Thank you so much☺️

About: Lifelong animal experience – I’ve cared for animals my entire life, not just as a job but as a way of life. • Real dog-owner perspective – With 2 dogs of my own, I understand routines, energy levels, training reinforcement, and emotional needs. • Calm, patient care – Great for shy, anxious, senior, or high-energy dogs who need consistency and understanding. • Individualized attention – I don’t do “one-size-fits-all” care. Walks, play, feeding, and downtime are tailored to your dog. • Trust & reliability – I show up on time, follow instructions closely, and communicate clearly so you can relax while you’re away. • Home-style love – Your dog is treated like family, not a booking. Hi! I’m Shelbie, a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all personalities. I live in a peaceful rural area with plenty of space for play, walks, and safe adventures. Your furry friend will get the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away! Dog Boarding (In My Home – Female Dogs Only) For the safety and comfort of all pets in my care, I only board female dogs. My Australian Shepherd has a strong personality, and keeping our home harmonious means I cannot accept male dogs. Female pups are always welcome, and they’ll receive lots of love, playtime, and cuddles in a safe, home environment. I work full-time from 8–5, but I’m happy to stop by during my lunch break for local drop-ins to take your sweet guy or girl out for a potty break, walk, or some love. I’m available after 5 PM, all day on Wednesdays, and all weekends. I’m reliable, flexible, and always happy to work with your pet’s routine whenever possible. I care for pets with patience, consistency, and lots of love—whether in my home or yours. While I don’t have a yard yet, I live close to a dog park and provide plenty of walks, playtime, and mental stimulation to keep dogs happy and exercised. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, play, and downtime. Safety and comfort always come first, and I make sure pets get individual attention, affection, and enrichment. In your home, I respect your space while ensuring your pet feels secure and relaxed in their familiar environment. I’m attentive, reliable, and treat every pet as if they were my own.

About: Animals have always been apart of my life growing up my parents bred English mastiff and pugs. I showed dogs in 4-H for 4 years and it really helped me amass so much knowledge. I have extensive experience with senior dogs and they hold a very special place in my heart. With us your senior will be in the best of hands. I don’t have a regular 9-5 so most of my day is spent home with the pups. I have my dogs on a specific feeding/potty schedule but I am very flexible to make your pup feel as comfortable as possible. I like to think I treat them as one of my one while keeping in mind if the owner has and rules or requests of their own.

Currently have I three dogs of my own. I have German Shepherd, English Springer Spaniel, and a Chihuahua/Rat terrier mixed that was rescued from California. I have rescued many dogs and cats to safe local shelters in the area. Then done plenty of babysitting dogs for family and friends! All I can say is I just love dogs! I’m huge cat lover as well!

I don’t have fenced in your yard at this time. Your pet will be leashed when taking potty breaks or walks outside. I do have crate provided for your pet when sitting. I prefer pet sitting your horse and dog walking in your area where your house is located.

I take care of the animals in the apartment in different ways, they will never be caged or chained in my care, I have a playroom for animals and I usually take them out to the courtyard of the building at certain times to walk and relieve themselves. Also the pet I take care of will be accompanied by my little kitten which is very friendly

About: I have never lived without a dog in my life, my family trains hunting dogs so I am very familiar with training and dog behaviors. I currently work two part time jobs, one more part time then the other but I'm available on weekends and wednesdays and weekdays after 3pm. I have one pup of my own who is very friendly and loves to make friends and a large unfenced yard, can crate if needed but the crate would need to be provided.
