About: We have taken care of dogs most of our life. We’ve also became experts with senior dog care since ours has reached that stage. One is a diabetic so we understand the importance of medicine and a schedule. If your dog requires extra care, just let us know and we’ll make sure their given everything they need. Currently, we can offer service whenever you need it. We’ll be home all day to make sure your doggie gets all the attention they need to make their time away from you less stressful. We have a fenced in backyard to keep your fur baby safe, along with three other dogs to keep them company. If needed, we do have a crate that your dog can utilize while here.

About: I'm a senior who's has pets all my life. Love all my furbabies! We recently adopted an aussie boy who's keeping us on our toes! I am retired, so my schedule is very flexible! Not much notice needed. Peace of mind is important! I look forward to meeting your fur-babies! I am very caring and very playful depending, of course, on the needs of the pet. I will come to your home, as needed! Thanks

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and enjoy spoiling them. I have two dogs and a chinchilla. We’ve previously owned cats as well but don’t have any in the home currently. I work Monday through Friday and have holidays off, which gives me plenty of time to spend with our pups. When I’m not working, I love playing, cuddling, and making sure they feel loved and spoiled. I would love the opportunity to welcome your pups into our home, give them lots of attention, and make them feel like part of the family. We have a large, fenced-in backyard where dogs have plenty of space to run, play, and explore. The yard is enclosed with a 5-foot chain-link fence to help keep everyone safe, including our dog Pepper, who loves to jump. We’re located in a quiet subdivision outside of town, away from busy highways, allowing us to provide a peaceful and secure environment for your pups to enjoy.

About: I’ve always had dogs and other pets in my life, and caring for animals is truly my passion. I have extensive experience with high-energy breeds and training, so I understand the patience, consistency, and attention they need to thrive. Whether your pet loves adventures, playtime, or cuddles on the couch, they will be treated like a beloved member of my own family. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 😊 I am currently a stay-at-home wife, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to provide attentive, personalized care for your pets while you’re away for work, vacation, or other commitments. I share my home with my German Shepherd mix, who enjoys regular walks, playtime, and daily adventures. An active lifestyle is important to me, so your dog can expect plenty of exercise, enrichment, and affection. Whether they need a walking buddy, a playmate, or simply a comfortable place to relax, I’ll make sure they feel right at home and receive the love and attention they deserve. 🐾😊 I understand how important it is to trust someone with your beloved pet. My home offers a secure fenced yard, plenty of supervision, and a friendly 8-month-old dog who enjoys having canine company. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I’ll make sure they receive the care, attention, and love they need. I’m also happy to accommodate any special requests to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. 🐾❤️

About: Please send me all of your cute fur babies my way! Hi, there! I’m Korina. I naturally have a calm, peaceful presence, so I would be a great match for your anxious, senior, shy, low energy or more laid-back dogs or cats. What sets me apart is that I work remotely, which allows me to be present with pets throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long periods. This gives me the availability to respond to their needs, routines, and energy levels. I’ve had experience with animals for many years. I previously owned a black lab named Aurora, and I currently have an orange cat of my own. I also have regularly helped care for my mother’s two dogs — a Maltese Schnauzer and a Golden Retriever — and I’ve looked after my sister’s dog multiple times in the past as well. Animals tend to gravitate toward me because I pay close attention to their body language, boundaries, and personalities. I’m very mindful of their cues and comfort levels, which helps me understand what they need more or less from me. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’d be happy to give your pet the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. If I’m housesitting, I’m practically readily available. I work a full-time remote job that would allow me to be present and handle the tasks needed to care for your pets. I would have time to see them in intervals multiple times a day with no problem and with plenty of time for play. But if I do drop in visits, I can do 2-3 drop in’s a day. 1st at 7:00-8:00a, 2nd at 11a-1:30p and 3rd at 4:30p-10p - depending on my work schedule and the daily demand. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with the understanding that it is first and foremost your pet’s home and safe environment. I’m very respectful of both the home and the routines that your pet is used to. I keep the environment calm, clean, and consistent so your pet feels comfortable while you’re away. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and house rules. I aim to maintain the same peaceful atmosphere your pet is used to. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and cared for, while also treating your home with the same respect I would my own.

About: Welcome Welcome! I am also the business owner of 360 Care & Handling LLC! 🥳 For the the first part of August, I am offering introductory pricing for NEW clients! Pricing will go back to the normal rate on 8/15. I specialize in cats, but also care for dogs! I recently had a peer-reviewed article published in the IAABC Foundation Journal, so be sure to check that out! A few quick notes: my drop-in and house-sitting radius are two different numbers, however Rover will only allow providers to set one number for all services. I will ask for your general location to confirm that I can safely provide the service you are requesting, Rover does not share your address until both parties have confirmed a booking. I have been engaging in animal care and husbandry in varying capacities and roles for years. I have experience caring for sick animals and specialize in comfort during care, animal quarantine protocols, and Fear Free/Low-Stress handling. I prefer to take a comprehensive approach to care, and make sure that anything I bring to your booking for your pets is preapproved by you! I carry my own insurance policy, separate from the Rover guarantee, and can provide proof of policy upon request. I currently work a full-time job in tech and work from 9am-5pm. I am unable to take client calls during that time unless there is an emergency. I will respond to texts as quickly as possible. For my house-sitting clients, I do require that there be internet in your home and access be granted to me so that I can spend most of the day with your pets, and not need to relocate during business hours. House-sitting clients should also expect that I will need to leave at least once a day to go take care of my own cats and any drop-ins that I have scheduled. Typically the average I have in a day is 3, but during the holiday season that number is higher. Thankfully, my schedule is fairly flexible with enough notice! I can typically pencil in drop-in appointments wherever needed, and for house sitting I am able to accommodate most requests. I am unable to offer constant care at this time due to my own pets' medical needs, and this is non-negotiable. I’m safety conscious, especially when it comes to medical needs! My shoes are sprayed with Lysol between client homes, and I carry hibiclense, a surgical soap, to use in between homes as well! If I suspect an animal is ill or injured, their owner will be notified ASAP, and I will change clothes prior to my next appointment! I take kennel cough, FIV/FELV, and parvo very seriously. If you would like for me to wear a mask while in your home, you just have to ask! I am vaccinated for the flu, covid, and have an up-to-date tetanus shot. All drop-in clients receive Rover cards with photos and written updates regarding their pet's care. Housesitting clients will typically receive one AM and one PM text every day, detailing how their pets are doing. Client privacy is also at the forefront of my mind-- I only post photos of pets with permission, I blur out ID tags, and scan the backgrounds of photos to ensure that there are no identifying features. Photos are geo-tagged with the county/state, but nothing closer than that, and permission to post can be revoked at any time for any reason. I do not disclose where I am sitting or for whom. If someone asks about it, I typically state that I am a friend of the family helping them out. My Instagram username is 360careandhandling.

OH MY GOSH - we could not have been more thankful to have Ashley as our rover. Everything was so simple and she made leaving our pup a lot easier. She stayed in constant communication and sent all the best pictures. We felt so comfortable the whole time we were gone. Not to mention, has the sweetest golden retriever that Sophie Grace got to become best friends with!!! There’s no doubt we will continue to book with her!!!

About: I have cared for pets for over 7 years now. I adore both dogs and cats and I genuinely enjoy loving on them and spending time with them! I have had multiple pets of my own (including dogs, cats, fish, and a turtle!) so I am familiar with all things feeding, walks, play time, snuggles, and medicine if needed. I am also always willing to help out with other household duties while you are away such as bringing in mail and packages, watering plants, etc. I look forward to hearing from you and the opportunity to help you and your fur babies! 🥰

We were so so nervous to leave our cats with someone other than family, but with our oldest cat being diagnosed with diabetes, we knew we wanted to trust a professional. Bree went above and beyond with our kitties! She did shots daily for us and made sure to provide pictures and updates about all 3 of them. Absolutely will rebook with her every time 🩷

I will definitely ask for her help again —the dogs were so much happier with her than a cramped, noisy kennel.

About: I volunteered at CARE which is a no kill pet shelter for cats and dogs in 2014 and recently started volunteering at this place again, February 2018. My duties included feeding and making sure the animals had enough water. Cleaned out kennels and cages and would take the dogs outside and walk them. I have had dogs and cats since I was born and currently had a dog who loved being around other cats and dogs. She loved to play with animals as well and loved children. Her name was Daisy she is in my profile pic with me. Daisy was euthanized on September 1st, 2023. I now have another dog whose name is Emma. She’s a year old and as long as it’s ok with a client I bring her to pet sitting jobs. She loves other animals including cats and loves to play. She’s lovable and affectionate and loves attention. I also have a cat and her name is Maizy. She is four years old and I got her when she was almost 4 weeks old. I would take Daisy for walks and if I could take her with me to other places I did. One of the places I took her was to the pet store. I no longer wear a mask unless I have to. If you prefer for me to wear one please let me know and I will wear one. I use to work at a job which required me to work a 10 hour shift. I am now working at a full time job which has 8 hour shifts. I can work around my schedule if needed. My supervisor does work with me on switching my days around if needed. I can’t keep your pet in my apartment due to rules and restrictions but I can come to your home. I will provide my own food and necessities.

About: I’m a dedicated cat lover with three kitties of my own, so I truly understand all the little quirks that make each cat unique, from playful zoomies to quiet, independent vibes. I have hands on experience with medication administration, post-surgical care, and even bottle feeding kittens, which has taught me a lot of patience, gentleness, and attention to detail. I’m comfortable keeping litter boxes fresh and creating a clean, cozy, low-stress environment your cat will feel safe in. I’ve also leash-walked cats for some safe outdoor exploring, so I’m open to working with both curious adventurers and homebody snugglers. I pay so much attention to each cat’s personality; I’ll match their energy, whether that means playtime, cuddles, or simply giving them their space while still making sure they feel cared for and loved.

About: I’ve grown up with, and been taking care of dogs majority of my life. I know how important it is to make sure your dog is in good hands and would love to help you out! Could definitely do morning and evening care. I have some flexibility with work, so depending on your needs, we can definitely work something out in between that! I believe in maintaining structure (yes, even for dogs). They do better when they know what to expect too. I will do my best to learn your routine, their quirks, and make them as comfortable as possible and maintain your routine as I do with my own dog!

Client privacy is also at the forefront of my mind-- I only post photos of pets with permission, I blur out ID tags, and scan the backgrounds of photos to ensure that there are no identifying features. Photos are geo-tagged with the county/state, but nothing closer than that, and permission to post can be revoked at any time for any reason. I do not disclose where I am sitting or for whom. If someone asks about it, I typically state that I am a friend of the family helping them out. My Instagram username is 360careandhandling.

About: Hello! My boyfriend and I both have grown up owning dogs since we were little and now we own Apollo, who is a very happy, playful, never agressive, energetic Siberian husky. I personally know how to administer CPR and other medical care if it is needed. There will be lots of activity here as being a husky owner means no down time! We go on hikes daily so you can count on us to get your fur baby happy and exercised! I work from home so I have a very flexible and open schedule and am just waiting to hear from you and spend time with your awesome fur babies! I will treat them as if they were our own and I will watch closely to assure their safety. We want you to feel comfortable leaving your babies with us!

About: Hi! I'm Kate! I recently relocated to Bolivar after providing pet care in Texas. I have been around animals my entire life and had several family pets growing up! I have experience caring for many different kinds of animals including dogs, cats, birds, fish, bunnies and hamsters. I have a deep love for all animals and I strive to care for any pet to the best of my ability. I believe it is very important to put my all into caring for any animal. I make it a point to make sure they are getting enough exercise, nutrients, clean water and love. The care I provide to all pets is nothing but the best. I might not be able to stay with them at all times but I will make sure that they are checked on multiple times every day to ensure that they have all the necessities. I love taking dogs for walks and find it very important to make sure any animal has some activity in their day.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old. I have owned and care for many dogs. From puppies to seniors. Dogs are very special to me and I would do anything for the dogs in my care. I currently work part time. Typically I'm off at 1pm every day. So I would be more than willing to care for your pet any time after that and all day on my off days. I would make sure that all doors and fences stayed closed unless exiting from them. Dogs would always have fresh water and food. With feeding instructions from parents. I would always make sure dogs are happy and healthy. As a healthy pup makes for a great day.

About: I have cared for pets for over 7 years now. I adore both dogs and cats and I genuinely enjoy loving on them and spending time with them! I have had multiple pets of my own (including dogs, cats, fish, and a turtle!) so I am familiar with all things feeding, walks, play time, snuggles, and medicine if needed. I am also always willing to help out with other household duties while you are away such as bringing in mail and packages, watering plants, etc. I look forward to hearing from you and the opportunity to help you and your fur babies! 🥰 I am a college student so I have some classes during the day. My classes are never longer than 2 hours so I able to come to your house frequently. I also play softball so I have classes that range from 1-3 hours. I am able to stop by morning, afternoon, evening, and before bed when needed. I am only able to care for your pets in your home. At your home, I will keep your house secure by locking all doors behind me and always keeping your dog on a leash (unless otherwise specified).

About: I’ve taken care of multiple kinds of animals starting at age 12. From horses to hamsters. I’ve nursed fur babies from the elderly to puppies. Nothing is unfamiliar to me and I have strong confidence in my knowledge. I have shadowed and volunteered in animal shelters and vet clinics. One thing is for sure I put any animal before anything else. I am currently going to school as a groomer. I’m willing to work with you to make your children happy! Walking is a wonderful way to exercise and I know a lot of people just don’t have the time or health to do so. I have a fenced in yard for all the four-legged babies to run and enjoy. An energetic aussie that is well behaved and knows basic training for your energetic companion to play with. I have a separate room for your sweet companion to sleep in at night. My location is a small town perfect for peaceful walks.

Breelyn was my walker for 9 months before I moved away. There aren’t enough words to describe how amazing she is. She saved me on countless situations and would always send cute photos of my dog along with updates on what they did each day. I cannot recommend her enough. Just make sure to reach out early enough because lots of people know how great she is so her schedule fills up quick!

About: I have taken care of senior dogs who are no longer themselves, dementia, potty issues, etc. I have taken care of kittens and puppies less than a week old as well ! I have an open schedule so most times of the day work for me. I would prefer nights or overnight sitting. It is very rewarding. I can easily defuse situations that aren’t going as planned. If crate training is something you do that’s no problem! I grew up around crate training and keeping your pet safe is my top priority!

About: I have lifelong, hands on experience caring for animals and specialize in supporting pets through every stage of life. I currently have a puppy (toy Aussiedoodle), so I’m actively experienced in potty training and reinforcing foundational commands like sit, stay, and come with consistency and patience. I also have extensive experience with senior dogs. I cared for my own from age 3 through 17, which gave me a deep understanding of advanced care needs such as medication administration, bathing, mobility support, doggy diaper care, and hand-feeding. I’m comfortable navigating the sensitivities that can come with new people and aging, including moments of discomfort or food related aggression, and always handle pets with a calm, patient approach. I currently care for two dogs and three cats, which keeps me very in tune with different temperaments, routines, and needs. What sets me apart is my ability to read animal behavior, adjust my care style accordingly, and provide steady, patient, and attentive care that helps pets feel safe and loved. My friends and family always call me for pet sitting needs due to my loving and bubbly personality and strong passion and dedication for animals. Pet care fits into my routine very naturally and I genuinely enjoy making time for it. At the moment, I have open availability 7 days a week, which allows me to be flexible and responsive for visits, walks, or other activities. I am currently in the process of interviewing for part-time positions, but I remain committed to prioritizing pet care and can easily accommodate visits before or after work shifts. I’m very flexible and happy to work around what’s best for each pet’s routine. I provide care in a calm, attentive, and safety-focused way that helps pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. When I’m in a client’s home, I always follow their routines closely so pets can stay in their familiar environment with minimal stress. I pay close attention to instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and any special needs, and I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are handled carefully at all times. I also take time to build trust with each pet at their own pace—whether that means a gentle introduction, giving them space if they’re shy, or engaging with play and affection once they’re comfortable. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while keeping owners fully informed and at ease throughout the visit. I also have two dogs of my own if your fur baby is ever needing a friend. 💛

About: I have taken care of every type of animal since I was 16 years old. I have gone to school for animal science as well to currently working on my degree as a veterinary technician and animal nutritionist. From puppies to geriatric dogs. To newborn kittens and senior cats. I can also take care of any reptiles or amphibians. Anything you need of me, I can do, including rodents. Distributing medication or even helping your dog do their daily exercise. I have knowledge and experience with previously working at the Emergency Veterinary Clinic. * Hi! Thank you for your interest in having me watch your loved ones while you plan to be away. In order to provide you with the most accurate information, please be sure to have the following before confirmation: - please make sure you have all information rover needs about your pet filled out. - Include all animals (even exotic) and feeding instructions for everyone. - Any medications or medical needs while you plan to be away. (Seizure, diabetic, etc). - Anything special that I may need to know. In order to maintain better scheduling, please note I plan to do a meet and greet up to two weeks in advance.* Please keep in mind while housesitting, I do have occasional drop in visits for other clients and try not to be gone for more than 4 hours at a time. If you are needing me to mainly stay in your home, I do charge extra. I am available anytime you need me! I have my own routine for my animals. Pet care is my priority, always. Whether its mine or yours. My animals have routine and structure. I also have a fenced in back yard. Everyone knows how the routine works as far as time outside to play, cuddle, and the feeding schedule.

About: We love dogs! We are called first when any of our friends go out of town. We have cared for dogs of all sizes and ages from older doxies to young mutts and we love large rotties too. We are also okay with special needs dogs and we make sure your dog gets their medications when scheduled. Our lab loves to make new friends with dogs of all sizes. We have a nice privacy fenced in back yard with a kiddie pool to help the dogs keep cool during the summer even though they will spend most of the time inside. Please know that if your pup stays with us he or she will be treated like a part of the family. We love dogs! I help my Dad on his farm only when I'm not scheduled to care for a pup I'm hosting. I'm free to stay at home all day with your pet. I always keep an eye on what's going on. I'm usually outside if our pups are. If I'm watching a pet at your home, I don't make messes.

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and enjoy spoiling them. I have two dogs and a chinchilla. We’ve previously owned cats as well but don’t have any in the home currently. I work Monday through Friday and have holidays off, which gives me plenty of time to spend with our pups. When I’m not working, I love playing, cuddling, and making sure they feel loved and spoiled. I would love the opportunity to welcome your pups into our home, give them lots of attention, and make them feel like part of the family. We have a large, fenced-in backyard where dogs have plenty of space to run, play, and explore. The yard is enclosed with a 5-foot chain-link fence to help keep everyone safe, including our dog Pepper, who loves to jump. We’re located in a quiet subdivision outside of town, away from busy highways, allowing us to provide a peaceful and secure environment for your pups to enjoy.

About: I’ve always had dogs and other pets in my life, and caring for animals is truly my passion. I have extensive experience with high-energy breeds and training, so I understand the patience, consistency, and attention they need to thrive. Whether your pet loves adventures, playtime, or cuddles on the couch, they will be treated like a beloved member of my own family. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 😊 I am currently a stay-at-home wife, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to provide attentive, personalized care for your pets while you’re away for work, vacation, or other commitments. I share my home with my German Shepherd mix, who enjoys regular walks, playtime, and daily adventures. An active lifestyle is important to me, so your dog can expect plenty of exercise, enrichment, and affection. Whether they need a walking buddy, a playmate, or simply a comfortable place to relax, I’ll make sure they feel right at home and receive the love and attention they deserve. 🐾😊 I understand how important it is to trust someone with your beloved pet. My home offers a secure fenced yard, plenty of supervision, and a friendly 8-month-old dog who enjoys having canine company. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I’ll make sure they receive the care, attention, and love they need. I’m also happy to accommodate any special requests to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. 🐾❤️

About: Welcome Welcome! I am also the business owner of 360 Care & Handling LLC! 🥳 For the the first part of August, I am offering introductory pricing for NEW clients! Pricing will go back to the normal rate on 8/15. I specialize in cats, but also care for dogs! I recently had a peer-reviewed article published in the IAABC Foundation Journal, so be sure to check that out! A few quick notes: my drop-in and house-sitting radius are two different numbers, however Rover will only allow providers to set one number for all services. I will ask for your general location to confirm that I can safely provide the service you are requesting, Rover does not share your address until both parties have confirmed a booking. I have been engaging in animal care and husbandry in varying capacities and roles for years. I have experience caring for sick animals and specialize in comfort during care, animal quarantine protocols, and Fear Free/Low-Stress handling. I prefer to take a comprehensive approach to care, and make sure that anything I bring to your booking for your pets is preapproved by you! I carry my own insurance policy, separate from the Rover guarantee, and can provide proof of policy upon request. I currently work a full-time job in tech and work from 9am-5pm. I am unable to take client calls during that time unless there is an emergency. I will respond to texts as quickly as possible. For my house-sitting clients, I do require that there be internet in your home and access be granted to me so that I can spend most of the day with your pets, and not need to relocate during business hours. House-sitting clients should also expect that I will need to leave at least once a day to go take care of my own cats and any drop-ins that I have scheduled. Typically the average I have in a day is 3, but during the holiday season that number is higher. Thankfully, my schedule is fairly flexible with enough notice! I can typically pencil in drop-in appointments wherever needed, and for house sitting I am able to accommodate most requests. I am unable to offer constant care at this time due to my own pets' medical needs, and this is non-negotiable. I’m safety conscious, especially when it comes to medical needs! My shoes are sprayed with Lysol between client homes, and I carry hibiclense, a surgical soap, to use in between homes as well! If I suspect an animal is ill or injured, their owner will be notified ASAP, and I will change clothes prior to my next appointment! I take kennel cough, FIV/FELV, and parvo very seriously. If you would like for me to wear a mask while in your home, you just have to ask! I am vaccinated for the flu, covid, and have an up-to-date tetanus shot. All drop-in clients receive Rover cards with photos and written updates regarding their pet's care. Housesitting clients will typically receive one AM and one PM text every day, detailing how their pets are doing. Client privacy is also at the forefront of my mind-- I only post photos of pets with permission, I blur out ID tags, and scan the backgrounds of photos to ensure that there are no identifying features. Photos are geo-tagged with the county/state, but nothing closer than that, and permission to post can be revoked at any time for any reason. I do not disclose where I am sitting or for whom.

OH MY GOSH - we could not have been more thankful to have Ashley as our rover. Everything was so simple and she made leaving our pup a lot easier. She stayed in constant communication and sent all the best pictures. We felt so comfortable the whole time we were gone. Not to mention, has the sweetest golden retriever that Sophie Grace got to become best friends with!!! There’s no doubt we will continue to book with her!!!
