Highly-rated overnight sitters - Hamilton
“Becky made me feel very comfortable leaving my 1 year old pup for an overnight stay. She was very welcoming and Arlo was clearly loved during his stay. She provided lots of updates/ pictures (which put me at ease)... I recommend Becky and will be bringing Arlo back for upcoming stays!”
“Angela did an amazing job taking care of Gigi. Gigi was a happy tired girl when I picked her up from having so much fun. Highly recommend. I look forward to using Angela again.”
“Debbie was amazing! She was in constant contact with us, and proved regular updates and photos of our Zac playing and having a blast. Super caring and very sweet, she provided a fun and loving environment for Zac that a normal kennel could not match. I would absolutly reccomend her again, and will be setting up future play dates for Zac and Freya. Thank you Debbie!”
“We are extremely pleased with the care that Laura offered for our Bailey. Laura communicated with us during Bailey’s stay with her providing us with peace of mind that Bailey was in good hands and doing well. We definitely would love to use her again and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“We couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter than Ashley. She was great at communicating with us daily about how our two puppers were doing. She made us feel comfortable by letting us know how they were eating, made sure to confirm with us that they received their medication, and made our dogs feel like they never left home. One of our dogs is a little skiddish, and she did everything she could to make her feel comfortable. We will definitely be booking with Ashley again!”
“All the Stars!!! This was our dogs first stay using Rover with Jenna and we couldn't be more pleased! Someone who cares for our pup like it was their own with daily pictures and updates! Penny had the best time playing with Stitch and followed good girl rules while she was there. We appreciate Jenna opening her home to our Doggo and taking the best care of her while we were away. Thank you isn't enough for taking such good care of our fur baby!”
“I can’t say enough about how Christine and Matthew made me feel so comfortable leaving Riley with them when we were out of town! They kept me updated on how she was doing every day. When we arrived to pick her up, I thought she might want to stay!”
“Cassandra was amazing with my Sophia who is an older dog with a few senior issues. We were kept in the loop every day on how she was adjusting to her new sitter ( including pictures) and that made me feel confident we made a great choice. I would hope Cassandra will agree to watch Sophia again when she needs boarding. Anne”
“A wonderfully sweet and caring sitter who did a magnificent job taking care of my senior dog. She is very mature and professional. She was conscientious of my senior dogs limitations but still kept her active and engaged. She expressed initiative in helping out with my furbaby's care that wasn't anticipated was sooo appreciated. Would recommend her to everyone, and will definitely use her every future needs.”
“We are very pleased that our dog was in caring hands. We regularly received photos and updates about her well-being. This was our first experience being apart from our pet, and we understand that it was unusual for her and possibly accompanied by some difficulties. But the team managed everything and showed great care. At the end of her stay, our dog even received some lovely gifts. We are very grateful for this and will definitely turn here again next time. Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️”
“I was very anxious about leaving any of my dog with a sitter, as I have never left any of them with anyone before. I was very pleased how my fur family was taken care of, (he definitely goes above and beyond for your babies) I would definitely recommend him as well as use his services again in the future.”
About: I’ve handled dogs for the AKC since I was 12 years old starting in junior handling and worked my way up to professional handling very quickly. I am open all days of the week and I live right next-door. (Same building) The dogs will be cared for as I would my own and taking out consistently also making sure they have plenty freshwater in this heat. Along with lots of belly rubs!! The facility can be locked. I am there constantly and there’s plenty of room. I’m always available and I make sure that every pup is happy. If you have a puppy or dog with severe separation anxiety I can sleep downstairs with your dog also.
About: i’m going into my second year of college pursuing a degree in science and mathematics. my goal is to have a career in wildlife rehabilitation or veterinary care. i also have experience within EMS & firefighting as i’ve been a volunteer since 16. i’ve always loved animals of any kind and have been in aw by my own pets. i have 2 cats and 2 dogs, but currently live with only my senior cat (i brought her along with me for college). shes very specific but i make sure to keep up on her needs and do whatever i can for my baby. i live in a smaller sized apartment so I don’t currently have my dogs living with me, but since being away i miss being around them. soon i will be an intern at a zoo for animal care so i’m really looking forward to this opportunity! i love looking after family and friends pets, everytime I just feel as joyous as can be. I would love to start taking care of more pets within my community and gain more experience! __________________________________________ little side note: i allow my pets on my bed and couch with me all the time, just for some reason I wasn’t sure how to edit that off my profile lol so just know your pet is more than welcome 👌 i’m currently on summer break working a part time job, but have a flexible schedule. i like to go outside to parks, find good places to hike, and staying active. with bookings i will make sure to keep myself available or work with your schedule, whether that be for mornings, evenings, or even overnight. i’m also available the weekends. once school begins i will still be able to remain flexible. my senior cat sofia is specific with her needs, whether that’s the food she eats, the places she sleeps, or the litter i get. whatever her needs may be, whether she likes her hard food or gets sick of and only wants wet food, i make sure to listen. when she’s having a stomach ache or under the weather, i’m alerted and get her the best care i can provide. when it comes to family or friends animals like their dogs i like to spend a lot of time with them outside, taking them to parks, and even to hike depending on the kind of dog and their energy level. for clients i’ll ensure to keep them updated on their pets and if their were special instructions on how they want their pet to be treated i will do my best to make sure they are safe and well cared for.
About: Dog mom providing loving, reliable care for puppies, adults, and seniors. Patient, attentive, and committed to keeping every pet safe and happy, and comfortable always. As a full-time online student, I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my day at home with my Poms. This allows me to provide attentive, reliable care for one to two dogs per day, ensuring they receive plenty of supervision, exercise, playtime, and affection. I have my own home with a large patio area where pets can enjoy fresh air and supervised outdoor time. Since it is not fenced, I always keep pets safely supervised and use their collar or leash when needed. I provide daily walks, exercise, playtime, and loving care while following each pet’s routine and needs.
“11/10. My dog had such a great time with Jose, it’s like she’s the one who had a vacation! Jose is extremely good about communicating and sending pictures, and it was a really nice experience to receive updates throughout my dog’s stay without needing to prompt for them. My dog had ample space to get her energy out, and with an additional bonus of having an active sitter to do activities with, there was never a doubt that she was receiving anything less than the care I’d provide her at home. I recommend Jose to anyone looking for a reliable sitter, a comfortable stay for their pet(s), and peace of mind—my dog is certainly looking forward to another stay!”
“Lorinda was FANTASTIC! I had some serious concerns about leaving our reactive dog and 3 month old kitten with someone, but she was so reassuring, answered all my questions, explained the setup she had to keep animals safe, and kept me updated during our week away. I highly recommend her!”
“Ashley and her family were absolutely wonderful! They sent lots of great pictures and updates and were so sweet to our pup. Wish we lived closer, we would send him there more! But will be sure to go back when we are nearby again.”
“Heather was amazing! She took care of our boy and made him feel at home with her. Kept us updated how he was doing and sent us pictures. Communication was great! She really put our mind at ease and we were able to enjoy our trip more knowing our boy was well taken care of. Above and beyond service.”

“Morghan has cared for my Maine Coon multiple times! She is the very best! I failed to submit a review in time after last Christmas' cat sitting session. The power went out and she came over on Christmas to check on everything!! She wasn't even scheduled for that day! A quick worried message to her and she was right there to help. She made sure my cat and the house was ok. I'll always request her services for my cat. She also spends quality time with my guy. She's more than just a pet sitter! She's very trustworthy, reliable, and goes above and beyond! I highly recommend her!”
“This was our first time using rover for our 2 cats. They are super anxious kitties and Natalie was awesome. She kept me updated on them and I didn’t have to worry about a thing!”
“Cassandra took excellent care of my two cats, one of whom is a senior with some extra care needs. She kept me updated with photos everyday and my boys loved her! She went above and beyond giving them lots of attention and love while we were away. We were delighted to come home to a clean house and happy cats. We will definitely book with her again in the future.”
“Alexandrea was absolutely amazing with our two cats! Communication with her was easy and she sent us pictures everyday of our cats. First time trying rover and she went above and beyond for us. Not only did she take great care of the cats, she even cleared snow when there was a storm while we were away, so above and beyond what she came to do! I would recommend her to anyone for care of your pets while you’re away.”
“Amy is awesome! My two dogs are really anxious around new people and that makes me anxious, but because of how calm and capable Amy is, everything went really well! She did drop-in visits 4 days in a row while my husband was working and while I was out of town. She sent me TONS of pictures and updates which was great! My dogs warmed up to her very quickly and by the end of the 4 days I think they thought she was a member of the family! When she took them for a walk, one of my dogs got muddy and she cleaned her up for us. I'm so glad we found Amy and I can't wait to use her when we go out of town at the end of this month! :)”
“Excellent! Super friendly, immediate and positive responses, very engaged, incredible with dogs. Even noticed a medical condition in my poodle and offered to help. Even helped with other animals on property. Super thank you! Would 100% recommend. Dependable, honest, proactive, engaging communicator, trustworthy, and non-judgemental.”
“Anna was great. I have a scaredy cat and she was able to get him to warm up to her. My cats also had medication that she was able to give to the cats as well. We will definitely hire her again.”
“Gil's calm and thoughtful demeanor immediately inspired trust. His care of my cat was flawless. I will request Gil next time I am away. I recommend Gil without reservation.”
“Amber is great! She's very responsible and communicative, understands cats from being a cat owner herself, and is very caring and loving with them. I would highly recommend her services.”
“Devon was amazing to my cat, Scottie. She sent photos and was detailed with her updates! Devon listens to your pet’s needs and is so accommodating. I recommend her in a heartbeat! 1000/10”
“Kayla was flexible with taking care of my guinea pigs in addition to my cat. The house was cleaner than I expected upon return since the shavings/hay can get dusty but Kayla obviously put in the extra time to sweep up. There were a few communication gaps (was not notified that kibble was running low until the bag was down to its last feeding, use of Rover cards only without any actual updates on pet status) but overall I am happy with my first use of this website for pet care.”
“I had a great experience with drop-in visits! He met all expectations, communicated consistently, and sent pictures every time. I will definitely be asking him back next time I go out of town. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve cared for many types of dogs, cats, horses, cows and more for most of my life! Past and current employers, neighbors, friends and family have entrusted me with all of their animals! I currently have a full time job, however I am usually done by 3 pm and have 2-3 hours in between going back for night check. And I have time before 8 am depending on how close you are for early morning pet care! I currently have two dogs at my home who go out on a lead due to neighbors have free range chickens, but I have plenty of land to take your furbaby to play fetch or run around on!

“I can’t thank Gil enough for the attentiveness, caring, and love he showed to my 15 yr old dachshund! Gil took the time to listen to my wife and me when we described to him our pup’s tendencies and hinderances. We felt confident as we pulled out of the driveway that our old guy was in great hands! Gil made sure to send us photos of our pup throughout the day, as well as updates on its evacuations (very important for an older dog). Overall, I can say unequivocally that Gil was a perfect sitter for our elderly pup, and I would 100% recommend him to anyone needing a pet sitter in that area! Kudos, Gil!”

“Heather was great with my little guy. I was heading to Cooperstown for a few hours and needed a place for him to stay while I was out and about. Heather sent me pictures and updates the few hours she had him. If you’re ever in the area, I highly recommend using Heather to watch your dog!”

I can do mornings, afternoons and night times. I will make sure to be in constant contact with photos and I have the ability to swing by during work hours. I love my two dogs.

About: I have several years of experience with my adorable pup and lots of others! I would love to get to know your dog!! :) :) I am a college student home for the summer working at my part time job. (I work at a golf course as well.) I’m available everyday of the week, except for some weeknight afternoons and weekend mornings - but this changes frequently so my schedule is pretty open. I am extremely careful caring for pets, as I would want and expect for anyone to do for my dog as well. Nothing is ever left out for my pet to get into, doors/windows/etc are always shut, yard is fenced in and my dog is always leashed when I am with him, unless he is in our fenced in yard.

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them comes from a very genuine place in my heart. I have over 10 years of experience with dogs and have cared for my own, including Coco, who I adopted at 4 months old and is now 8, and Heidi, who is 7. I also helped care for Nico, a Pomeranian, and Nina, a Chihuahua, for 3 years, along with pet sitting for multiple dogs in clients’ homes in Austin, Texas. My dogs are incredibly special to me and have been emotional support companions through so much in my life, which is why I deeply understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. I know they are not just pets, they are family. I recently moved from Austin, Texas to Hamilton, New York, and I’m excited to help local pet parents with drop-in visits and walks. I am very responsible, attentive, and understand that every dog has different needs. I always do my best to follow care instructions closely, provide updates and pictures, and make each visit as personalized as possible. I also prefer meeting dogs with their owner first when possible, so everyone feels comfortable. My goal is to make you feel confident that your dog will be safe, loved, and very well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work managing my own cleaning and management business from home which gives me flexibility in my schedule. Right now I offer drop-in visits and walks only, so I care for pets in the comfort of their own home where they feel most familiar and safe. I always want to follow the owner’s routine and instructions as closely as possible, because I know every dog is different. For drop-in visits, I can help with potty breaks, fresh water, feeding, playtime, and companionship. For walks, I make sure dogs are safe, comfortable, and getting the attention and exercise they need. I’m also happy to send picture updates so owners can feel at ease while they’re away. My goal is to make every visit feel dependable, caring, and personalized.
About: I have 3 years of experience taking care of cats and dogs of a variety of breeds, and have worked with puppies as well as older pets in home environments such as suburbs, cities, and rural areas. I am happy to cater to your pet's special needs, and I focus on respecting each pet's boundaries and getting to know them on a case by case basis, with the hope that they grow to trust me as much as they trust you! Since I am a writer who works remotely, I am open on a weekly basis and am able to be flexible in order to meet your scheduling requirements. I work hard to ensure that your pet's personal boundaries are not crossed while we take time to get to know each other. I especially care about learning their preferences in order to earn their favor and eventually their trust. Depending on each pet, I try to be very sensitive to any shifts in their mood or behavior, such as if they get anxiety when left alone or are afraid of loud weather.
About: I grew up with dogs and now own 4 of my own. I have volunteered at a local shelter to walk and play with their dogs. And I’m in the process of becoming a professional dog trainer. I have raised 3 puppies so I am able to potty train and do basic obedience I am currently working part-time so I’ll have plenty of time to walk and play with your dog(s). I am also available for drop-ins to take your dog(s) out during the day if needed I have a large fenced in yard and live on 5 acres. I have access to state and farm lands close by with a lot of nature trails that is great for any reactive dogs. I also have a lot of back roads that aren’t busy with traffic if that’s more of your dog(s) preference
About: I love all dogs regardless of size or breed. I’m quite active so if you have an energetic dog that needs to burn some energy, I am the gal for you. I love to take my dogs on adventures with me. Hiking, exploring, finding new trails. As long as they're up to date on their tick medication, we are good to go! :) I also love to groom dogs and more than happy to give them a bath (sometimes I do anyway after a muddy adventure) so that is an added bonus! I’m comfortable administering oral medication. I have my own vehicle that’s completely pet friendly so if I have to travel or take your dog somewhere, no problem! Bonus: I do have livestock experience as well! ****All I ask is that if you and your dogs enjoyed working with me, please leave me a review! It helps with bookings :) I work from home part time so I have lots of availability especially for drop ins and walks. It fits in perfectly with my schedule. I am willing to meet the pets many times beforehand to establish trust. If dogs are more on the adaptable side, I make sure we have a lot of fun while I visit, playing, walking, exploring etc. If dogs are a bit more unsure, I stick to their routine they are used to for comfort reasons.
“John is an excellent dog walker and care taker! Having someone come by my place that I trust is a huge relief. Even in warmer weather Benny still got outside and got great exercise. Thanks so much John!”
About: I’ve taken care of everything from small cats to wolf dogs. I will be able to take care of your pets, they will be happy with me.

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, horses, chickens, ducks, ferrets, you name it and I've taken care of it! Animals are a passion of mine and through pet sitting I get to meet so many great animals. I have offered a verity of pet sitting services such as dog walking, house sitting and farm sitting. Through the 4 years I have been pet sitting I have watched and cared for both domestic pets, as well as farm animals, and I have a list of references to back up my work. I do have a local part time job so my schedule is very flexible when it comes to pet sitting. I am available to check in and care for your pets in the morning, afternoon, and at night. I am also available to watch pets overnight throughout the week and on weekends. I like to visit my clients home, and meet the animals I will be caring for prior to the service to ensure I am equipped to provide excellent care that makes the animal comfortable and healthy, as well as provide the client a piece of mind. I cater to how my clients want their animals cared for and treated, each home is different and I try my best to meet my clients standards.
About: I’ve lived and taken care of dogs and cats my whole life and have had multiple temporary dog sitting jobs. Jobs including; walking, feeding, bathing, etc. I’m working part time but am free many days of the week. I’m available mostly in the afternoon and night hours. If needed, I am able to work around some mornings. I have a fenced in yard in which my dogs run freely around. My clients dogs will be well cared of under my supervision and I will listen to any instructions necessary.
About: By hiring an experienced and professional pet sitter, your pet will be able to suffer much less stress by staying in their own home and sleeping in their own bed. Additionally, there will be no exposure to dangerous illness from other animals, and I will provide the extra TLC they'll need while you're away. You can trust me, and feel confident your pet is in capable, caring hands while you're away from home. I offer "Meet & Greet" interviews for first time clients (within 15 miles from Middleton, TN), because I want you to feel comfortable with the whole process, and with me. My goal is to give you the peace of mind you'll need when you are away, and to make your return convenient, easy, and hassle-free. (Meet & Greets over 15 miles away from Middleton will incur a $1/mile travel fee for each mile over the first 15.) My rates are very reasonable. Rather than charging by the hour, I charge by the day, which makes it much more affordable for my clients. I can provide references of past customers upon request. I am also available to watch your pet in my home (my dogs are very socialized with both dogs and cats), but I have found that it's more convenient for me, and far less stressful for your pet if they're allowed to stay in the comfort of their own home. Depending on your distance from me, I can visit your pets 2 - 3 times each day, for 30 - 45 minute intervals, or I can stay at your home for as long as you'd like me to, including overnights, if that's what you prefer. I am very flexible and will work with you to set up a schedule and system that works best for you and your pet. You can also rest easy knowing that I am insured while in your home. I have experience administering medications for both cats and dogs. I will also walk them, play with them (of course!), snuggle and love them like my own, and do whatever other activities you'd like me to do. I have taken care of as many as 5 dogs at one time for a week or more, so no pet sitting job is too difficult for me, because when you love animals like I do, it never seems like work! :) Please contact me today to discuss your needs so I may provide you with a quote, and thank you for considering me for the care of your precious pets! ~ Lolly Winne LollyPup Pet Sitting F.A.Q. 1. How many visits are there per day? The number of visits is determined by you, the pet owner. Normally, cats require only one or two visits per day, unless medications need to be given. Dogs usually have two to three visits per day at morning, midday and evening, but the number of visits and time of visits are at the client's discretion. 2. How long are the visits? The length of each visit depends on the client's needs. The average visit lasts 30-45 minutes, but longer visits may be requested and the price would be adjusted accordingly. 3. Will you provide services other than animal care? I can also bring in the mail, open/close blinds as needed, take out the trash, clean litter boxes as needed, turn lights on or off, etc. to provide your house the security it needs while you're away. 4. What will happen if my pet becomes ill while I am away? You will sign a vet release form at the time of the first visit.

Thank you for your assistance, my clients and their pets appreciate your thoughtfulness. THANK YOU! :) About this sitter: Anyone who knows me would say I'm a HUGE animal lover. I have a special place in my heart for dogs. If I pass by someone walking their dog, I've been known to turn around, go back, and ask the owner if I can pet them. Yes, this typically results in the weirdest expressions, but hey, their dogs totally love me! LOL A little about me... I'm 50 years young and live in Middleton, TN with my wonderful husband and our 3 small sweet fur babies (2 shih tzus and a bichon/poodle mix). I have 2 grown children and an 8 year old Pit Bull named Jax who lives with them in Murfreesboro, TN. I'm originally from upstate NY (born & raised 4 hours north of NYC, in cow country!) but moved to the south to be with the love of my life. :) I worked in a kennel years ago, so I've handled virtually every type of dog there is, and there was never a time when my family didn't have a dog or two in the house growing up. I've been jokingly called "The Dog Whisperer", as I'm known for befriending dogs that are normally unapproachable. The bottom line? I LOVE DOGS! Honestly? I think I must've been a dog in a past life... LOL ;) I will happily watch your pet in my home, however I much prefer to travel to your home to take care of them, where they are happiest and the least stressed. I'm willing to travel anywhere, as long as my travel expenses are covered. Please contact me today for a quote. :) I have been pet sitting for about 15 years now. Please read the testimonials provided by several of my past clients. :) About my yard: I have a large, fenced in back yard where the dogs can run free and get plenty of exercise. There's plenty of room for multiple dogs. My experience administering medication: I've done this countless times. This has never been an issue for me. I don't work a regular job because I have my own businesses. This allows me the luxury of making my own schedule and working from home, so I am able to stop whatever I'm working on an any given time to take care of any animals that are in my care. It's truly the perfect side job for me. At my home, I have 2 fenced areas that I can use for when your dog(s) need to go out, otherwise they'll be inside with me getting lots of love. They would never be let out unsupervised as I'd never want to take a chance of them escaping. (My goats are known for this so they've made me paranoid. Lol) Oh, and by the way, I have Valais Blacknose sheep (a.k.a. the "world's cutest sheep!") and Nigerian Dwarf goats who all stay in their own fenced pasture together. I also have two very sweet LGDs who are wonderful with other dogs, but stay in the pasture and lean-to (attached to my house) with them at all times to protect the animals and property from coyotes. And they do their job extremely well! At your home, I will follow whatever instructions you provide for the care of your fur babies, and I'll send you text updates everyday, including pictures and video.

“Becky made me feel very comfortable leaving my 1 year old pup for an overnight stay. She was very welcoming and Arlo was clearly loved during his stay. She provided lots of updates/ pictures (which put me at ease)... I recommend Becky and will be bringing Arlo back for upcoming stays!”
“Angela did an amazing job taking care of Gigi. Gigi was a happy tired girl when I picked her up from having so much fun. Highly recommend. I look forward to using Angela again.”
“We couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter than Ashley. She was great at communicating with us daily about how our two puppers were doing. She made us feel comfortable by letting us know how they were eating, made sure to confirm with us that they received their medication, and made our dogs feel like they never left home. One of our dogs is a little skiddish, and she did everything she could to make her feel comfortable. We will definitely be booking with Ashley again!”
“All the Stars!!! This was our dogs first stay using Rover with Jenna and we couldn't be more pleased! Someone who cares for our pup like it was their own with daily pictures and updates! Penny had the best time playing with Stitch and followed good girl rules while she was there. We appreciate Jenna opening her home to our Doggo and taking the best care of her while we were away. Thank you isn't enough for taking such good care of our fur baby!”
“I can’t say enough about how Christine and Matthew made me feel so comfortable leaving Riley with them when we were out of town! They kept me updated on how she was doing every day. When we arrived to pick her up, I thought she might want to stay!”
“Cassandra was amazing with my Sophia who is an older dog with a few senior issues. We were kept in the loop every day on how she was adjusting to her new sitter ( including pictures) and that made me feel confident we made a great choice. I would hope Cassandra will agree to watch Sophia again when she needs boarding. Anne”
“I was very anxious about leaving any of my dog with a sitter, as I have never left any of them with anyone before. I was very pleased how my fur family was taken care of, (he definitely goes above and beyond for your babies) I would definitely recommend him as well as use his services again in the future.”
About: I’ve handled dogs for the AKC since I was 12 years old starting in junior handling and worked my way up to professional handling very quickly. I am open all days of the week and I live right next-door. (Same building) The dogs will be cared for as I would my own and taking out consistently also making sure they have plenty freshwater in this heat. Along with lots of belly rubs!! The facility can be locked. I am there constantly and there’s plenty of room. I’m always available and I make sure that every pup is happy. If you have a puppy or dog with severe separation anxiety I can sleep downstairs with your dog also.
“11/10. My dog had such a great time with Jose, it’s like she’s the one who had a vacation! Jose is extremely good about communicating and sending pictures, and it was a really nice experience to receive updates throughout my dog’s stay without needing to prompt for them. My dog had ample space to get her energy out, and with an additional bonus of having an active sitter to do activities with, there was never a doubt that she was receiving anything less than the care I’d provide her at home. I recommend Jose to anyone looking for a reliable sitter, a comfortable stay for their pet(s), and peace of mind—my dog is certainly looking forward to another stay!”
“Lorinda was FANTASTIC! I had some serious concerns about leaving our reactive dog and 3 month old kitten with someone, but she was so reassuring, answered all my questions, explained the setup she had to keep animals safe, and kept me updated during our week away. I highly recommend her!”
“Ashley and her family were absolutely wonderful! They sent lots of great pictures and updates and were so sweet to our pup. Wish we lived closer, we would send him there more! But will be sure to go back when we are nearby again.”
“Katie has been amazing on keeping me up to date on how my puppers was doing/adjusting. She sent photos for a few updates as well!! We will be back again and I know Maple is already excited to get back there!”
“Loving caring family that genuinely loves pets and take great care of them. We made a relatively last minute booking to care for our dog over a long weekend and could not be happier ! Jester loved the beautiful fenced in back yard which gave him a big safe place to enjoy the outside. We would not hesitate to leave Jester in their care again. Thanks Matt and Christie. We really appreciate you both for the love and attention you gave Jester and for making your home a fun, pet-friendly place for pets to vacation !!!!”
“Prior to booking Kara, I hadn’t used Rover in years and was nervous about leaving my dog in the care of another person—we’re attached at the hip. However, I couldn’t have booked a better person. Kara is extremely communicative and caring, and had plenty of space for my pup to run around and explore. She asked lots of clarifying questions prior to booking, and I could tell she really enjoyed and remained curious about the personality of my dog! I received lots of pictures and quick responses. My energetic Staffordshire Terrier, Toto, enjoyed a long weekend of naps and sunshine, and returned to me vibrant as ever! Kara’s awesome care eased any worries I might have had, and I highly recommend her to anyone who might also be a reluctant helicopter parent like I am! If this if your first Rover rodeo, you can proceed with confidence, which is an amazing feeling to have.”
About: I have been around animals my whole life. I have had owned dogs and many other types of animals. I love to be around animals. I am also a very active person. I am also comfortable with cats and have no allergies. My current work schedule allows me to have a very flexible schedule that allows me to cater to you and your pets schedule whether it be morning, afternoon, or night! I follow all owners rules about their pets. If they only want them in their yard and not near other animals I will do that. If they want me to walk them I will walk them where the pet parent would like them to be walked!
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since an early age. Growing up with a dog, watching my neighbors pets, and now I help take care of my parents 5 year old black lab. I always take care of all of the pets needs. I work remote, so I’m home the whole time to be with your dog and can provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and company throughout the day. I’m respectful, reliable, and trusting. I’m good at communication. I will follow what you ask for and make sure the pets needs are taken care of!
