Personalized care for your dog or cat - Hartwell
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Hartwell
“Hands down the best cat sitter I’ve ever used, five stars, ten out of ten. She kept my little baby happy and spoiled while I was gone, sent adorable photo updates every single day without me even asking, and everything felt so easy and stress-free. Seriously, if you’re looking for someone who actually cares about your cat like it’s her own, she’s the one. Book her now, you won’t regret it!!!”
“Meghan was very accommodating with my senior special needs dog. He needed the comfort of someone's home. Her children were an added bonus because he loves kids. We don't travel often so being able to find a place Woody felt comfortable as well as myself helped relieve the anxiety of traveling. Our drop off and pick up time needed to be flexible and Meghan was very available via text to and work with those times on the fly. If we have to travel again I will feel comfortable leaving Woody with her.”
“Our 2 dogs seemed very comfortable with Morgan! We loved getting updates with pictures of how our dogs were doing while we were away. Plus there was plenty of space outside for the dogs to enjoy.”
“Chloe was awesome with my pup Angus. She provided excellent services and communication throughout the sitting period. I will definitely be using her for future sittings! Thank you Chloe!”
“Candice is amazing! My dog loves her and being over at her house with her family. Candice was very attentive to my dogs needs and her special medicine that she needed administered. I can rest easy when im away knowing that Candice is taking great care of my girl.”
“Shaye was absolutely wonderful! Super responsive and gave us updates throughout the entire stay. My dog got along super well with her sweet pups. They had an absolute blast! I highly recommend Shaye :)”
About: I’ve been tasked to take care of all kinds of animals for as long as I can remember. All of my family and friends have been able to rely on me to host or sit their pet from farm animals to house pets when need be. I work night shifts and free on the weekends so I’m always able to take care of pets. And I have a dog of my own so pet care is a every day thing for me. I have a fenced in backyard, doggy door and a lead attachment for dogs I host and my own dog to come and go as they please along with plenty of space to play in either the garage or one of 3 bedrooms.
“I was nervous about leaving our dog for a 9-day stay, when the most we had ever been away from her was for 3 days. But Jenn took wonderful care of our dog, sent daily pictures and updates, and I soon realized our dog was having a vacation of her own. From other dogs to play with, a fenced backyard and doggy door, our dog lived her best life. Thanks Jenn for taking excellent care of Ellie!”
“Our Luna absolutely loved her time here! It was my first experience using this service and choosing yulian was the best decision for our pup! We got great updates and photos and felt like it was a home away from home for our sweet girl!”
About: •LICENSED, INSURED AND BONDED PROFESSIONAL PET SITTER• If you are new to Rover, I encourage you to use my promo code KAYLAM49673 when booking with me to get $20 off your first service! I've always had dogs in my family growing up, which lead me to finding my passion in caring for animals. I have experience in giving pups medication, grooming, identifying illnesses, and body language thanks to my last job at a doggy daycare! I've been around and cared for dogs of all shapes and sizes! I understand how important your furry family members are and will make sure they have everything they need (and make sure they have tons of fun of course!) I have experience with cats as well, having two of my own and taking care of our local strays. :) I also have experience in taking care of chickens, ducks and fish and am comfortable with any other pets you may have! I have respect and compassion for all animals and would love to provide them with the love and care they deserve. I am currently pursuing Rover full time so I have lots of flexibility. Let me know what your schedule is and I can be available whenever you need me! I understand the meaning of integrity and integrate it fully into my services. I will treat your home and your animals as if they were my own. The same goes for any pets boarding with me as they’ll be part of our family while they’re in my home. I can give them a safe environment where they feel loved and secure.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years and have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and dogs of all sizes and personalities. As a lifelong dog owner and elementary school teacher, I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to every pet’s unique needs. I have a large fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run and play, as well as a friendly black Lab who loves having canine visitors. He’s playful and social but also respectful of dogs who prefer a quieter, more relaxed environment. Whether your dog needs exercise, cuddles, medication, or simply companionship while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ll treat your pet like one of my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. I’m currently off for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. Whether your dog needs daycare, overnight boarding, walks, or drop-in visits, I’ll make sure they get lots of playtime, exercise, cuddles, and companionship. I can accommodate most schedules and will do my best to meet your pet’s routine. Safety, Trust & Environment My home is a safe, welcoming place for dogs to relax and have fun. I have a fully fenced yard where they can run and play under supervision, and my friendly black Lab enjoys having visitors but is gentle with dogs who prefer their own space. Whether your pet is energetic or more laid-back, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I maintain a clean, secure environment, closely supervise outdoor time, and follow all feeding, medication, and care instructions provided by owners. My goal is to make your dog feel right at home while giving you peace of mind.
“I could not have asked for a better host. Ashley is extremely sweet, caring, responsible and very thorough. I felt completely comfortable leaving Abby in her care. Ashley's dog Sally is a sweetheart and got along very well with Abby. I loved that Abby would have a playmate during this stay. Ashley was also very communicative. She sent me texts to ask any questions as well as regular photo updates throughout the stay. When I picked Abby up, I could tell that she was happy, playful, and well taken care of. Thank you, Ashley & Sally! See you very soon!”
“Kylie was a true lifesaver when I couldn’t figure out who to watch over Peaches last minute. She was so understanding and communicative! She kept me updated on how Peaches was. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Wonderful communication! She was super flexible with pick up and drop off times. Her dogs got along so well with our pup! He truly seems like he had the best time playing all weekend long! Cecelia sent us picture and video updates and responded super quickly anytime we wanted to check up on him. I HIGHLY recommend her and felt super comfortable leaving our puppy dog with her!”

If I am just meeting the pup I always allow them time to get used to me and make sure I am a loving person.

About: I have a genuine love for animals and take great pride in providing reliable, caring pet-sitting services.

Since I’m currently applying for more jobs, my availability is open and adaptable, making it easy for me to provide consistent, reliable care for pets whenever I’m needed. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routines as closely as possible so the pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide regular feeding, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also take time to clean up after them, whether that’s refreshing litter boxes, wiping paws, or tidying up their spaces. If I’m staying overnight, I make sure the home stays neat and the pets get extra attention and companionship. My goal is always to create a safe, calm, and loving environment while keeping the owner’s home just as they left it.
About: I absolutely love taking care of home pets! You will feel stress-free with me while taking care of your animals until you return home. I believe that animals need more love and care than just being let outside and fed. I have house and pet sat for two summers now, and I really love it! I am home from college, looking to have a simpler job during the summer! I am fully available all week and usually the weekends as well unless I'm on a trip! Very open to anything. I have a fenced yard for my pup at home, which helps them have more fun outside! I could also crate the animal if that is what is needed.

I have a fenced in backyard, doggy door and a lead attachment for dogs I host and my own dog to come and go as they please along with plenty of space to play in either the garage or one of 3 bedrooms.
“I was nervous about leaving our dog for a 9-day stay, when the most we had ever been away from her was for 3 days. But Jenn took wonderful care of our dog, sent daily pictures and updates, and I soon realized our dog was having a vacation of her own. From other dogs to play with, a fenced backyard and doggy door, our dog lived her best life. Thanks Jenn for taking excellent care of Ellie!”
“Our Luna absolutely loved her time here! It was my first experience using this service and choosing yulian was the best decision for our pup! We got great updates and photos and felt like it was a home away from home for our sweet girl!”
About: •LICENSED, INSURED AND BONDED PROFESSIONAL PET SITTER• If you are new to Rover, I encourage you to use my promo code KAYLAM49673 when booking with me to get $20 off your first service! I've always had dogs in my family growing up, which lead me to finding my passion in caring for animals. I have experience in giving pups medication, grooming, identifying illnesses, and body language thanks to my last job at a doggy daycare! I've been around and cared for dogs of all shapes and sizes! I understand how important your furry family members are and will make sure they have everything they need (and make sure they have tons of fun of course!) I have experience with cats as well, having two of my own and taking care of our local strays. :) I also have experience in taking care of chickens, ducks and fish and am comfortable with any other pets you may have! I have respect and compassion for all animals and would love to provide them with the love and care they deserve. I am currently pursuing Rover full time so I have lots of flexibility. Let me know what your schedule is and I can be available whenever you need me! I understand the meaning of integrity and integrate it fully into my services. I will treat your home and your animals as if they were my own. The same goes for any pets boarding with me as they’ll be part of our family while they’re in my home. I can give them a safe environment where they feel loved and secure.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years and have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and dogs of all sizes and personalities. As a lifelong dog owner and elementary school teacher, I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to every pet’s unique needs. I have a large fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run and play, as well as a friendly black Lab who loves having canine visitors. He’s playful and social but also respectful of dogs who prefer a quieter, more relaxed environment. Whether your dog needs exercise, cuddles, medication, or simply companionship while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ll treat your pet like one of my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. I’m currently off for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. Whether your dog needs daycare, overnight boarding, walks, or drop-in visits, I’ll make sure they get lots of playtime, exercise, cuddles, and companionship. I can accommodate most schedules and will do my best to meet your pet’s routine. Safety, Trust & Environment My home is a safe, welcoming place for dogs to relax and have fun. I have a fully fenced yard where they can run and play under supervision, and my friendly black Lab enjoys having visitors but is gentle with dogs who prefer their own space. Whether your pet is energetic or more laid-back, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I maintain a clean, secure environment, closely supervise outdoor time, and follow all feeding, medication, and care instructions provided by owners. My goal is to make your dog feel right at home while giving you peace of mind.
“Kylie was a true lifesaver when I couldn’t figure out who to watch over Peaches last minute. She was so understanding and communicative! She kept me updated on how Peaches was. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Wonderful communication! She was super flexible with pick up and drop off times. Her dogs got along so well with our pup! He truly seems like he had the best time playing all weekend long! Cecelia sent us picture and video updates and responded super quickly anytime we wanted to check up on him. I HIGHLY recommend her and felt super comfortable leaving our puppy dog with her!”

About: In the previous 10+ years, I have been taking care of horses and dogs. I have extensive equine knowledge due to my degree and previous employments. I am comfortable giving both horse and dog medicines of various types. As for dogs, I have done all the training on my own, I’m comfortable with puppies, can handle different temperaments, senior care, and special needs cases. I’m willing to also offer drop in services for equines and other animals. Please message me with any questions you may have! I work from home, so I am around most of the time. If I’m out running errands, it tends to be a couple hours away from home. I have a fenced in yard where the dogs can run and play freely. I also have acreage for long walks. I have two dogs of my own that are very friendly and love friends. I feed my dogs separately from your dogs and am flexible to accommodate your dog
About: I have had pets my whole life up! I'm a full time stay at home mom with 3 kiddos (2 in school and 1 not in school cause shes a baby!) I am looking to earn a little pocket change while hopefully helping someone out with their fur babies. Most times I will have to come with my baby in her carrier for now, but certain times I may be able to work around that, so please dont hesitate to ask! I am willing to travel as far as Kansas City/Overland Park, Pittsburg, and Joplin/Springfield, or basically within an hour and half for house sitting. As a mom I am not able to stay in your home for house sitting, I could consider pet care inside my home on a case-by-case basis. For daily walks, we will have to agree on a price if its farther than Nevada, El Dorado Springs. I live on a few acres with cats, a dog, chickens, and ducks. I have experience with a lot of different types of animals as well including fish and smaller caged critters. I have experience working with service dogs as well. If you have any questions, please reach out! Im super flexible and would love to be able to help you any way that I can. I am a stay at home mom with 2 of 3 kiddos in school. My schedule is very open. Whatever work you're needing with your animals, please reach out. Animal care in my home will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Animal care in your home will be as requested by you. I typically could not do overnight care as I've got kiddos in school and will most likely have to travel a bit to help you with your animals, but on weekends or breaks I can consider it.
