About: I’ve been passionate about dogs and pet care for over 15 years. As the founder of my own pet wellness brand, Shopypaws, I learned not only how to care for pets with love, but also how important their emotional well-being, routines, nutrition, and behavior are. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, including active dogs like my own Border Collie mix, Reaver. I truly enjoy spending time with pets, making them feel safe, loved, exercised, and comfortable while their owners are away. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets because I treat every dog like family. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, and genuinely passionate about animals and training positive behaviors. 🐾 Your pet will receive loving care, attention, patience, and lots of affection with me. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals is something I truly enjoy and prioritize. I have a flexible schedule and can provide walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and lots of attention throughout the day. I understand how important routines are for dogs, so I do my best to keep them comfortable, active, and stress free while their owners are away. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or calm and shy, I adapt to their personality and needs to make them feel safe and loved. 🐾 Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for pets is extremely important to me. I treat every dog like family and pay close attention to their behavior, routines, feeding schedules, and comfort levels. I have experience caring for dogs of different personalities and energy levels, including active breeds like my own dog, Reaver. My background as the founder of Shopypaws also taught me a lot about pet wellness, behavior, and positive care practices. I keep pet parents updated with photos and communication so they can feel at peace while away. My goal is always for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and happy in my care. 🐶✨

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was about eleven years old. Growing up, I always dreamed of becoming a veterinarian, and my love for animals led me to start volunteering at a local shelter when I was young. What began as a childhood dream quickly turned into a lifelong passion. Through years of volunteering and hands-on experience, I’ve had the opportunity to care for animals with different personalities, needs, and backgrounds. Spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved is something that truly brings me joy. My passion for animal care has only grown stronger over the years, and I would love the opportunity to share that dedication with you by helping care for your pets and making sure they’re happy while you’re away ☺️🐾 I’m currently in nursing school and pet sitting through Rover full-time.

My goal is always to make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away!! 🥰 I have several years of experience dog sitting, cat sitting, dog walking, and volunteering at animal shelters, along with caring for pets of my own. These experiences have taught me how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away.

I maintain a consistent routine and stay attentive to each pet’s individual needs, including feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box care, potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of affection. My goal is to create a safe, calm, and loving environment so that your pets feel happy, secure, and well cared for at all times!! 🐾💕

About: This summer, I spent significant time volunteering at the Terrebonne Parish Animal Shelter in Gray, Louisiana, logging over 50 hours to ease the load of staff while giving rescues the best possible quality of life. I gained hands-on experience handling dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. From taking high-energy dogs long walks and runs to managing bath times and following strict sanitation protocols, I treated every pet with shelter-grade care. A highlight of my time there was leading “Doggy Day Outs,” taking adoptable dogs on community adventures. In these new environments, I paid close attention to their reactions to learn their unique likes, dislikes, and personality traits. Reading their canine body language allowed me to adapt to their needs on the fly, keeping them safe and comfortable wherever we went. Crucially, working with shelter dogs also gave me deep experience with high-energy breeds, reactive dogs, and abused or frightened rescues who require gentle handling and trust-building. Although relocation meant stepping away from shelter work, I bring those same high standards of safety, patience, and individual attention to every pet I visit. I’m currently working nights as a PRN Mental Health Technician. I make my own schedule, so my availability is flexible nearly every day of the week! In-home care is built on safety, consistency, and mutual trust. My top priorities are maintaining your pet’s familiar routine, securing the environment, and treating your home with total respect. I make sure pets are never left alone for long stretches, giving them the frequent companionship, potty breaks, and attention they need. Upon arrival, I secure all doors and gates, greet the pet calmly, and follow your explicit instructions for feeding, exercise, and meds. I pay close attention to your pet’s body language, offering patient interaction for shy animals and active engagement for high energy ones. You’ll receive detailed updates and photos after every visit.
About: I really enjoy animals so much. I just do not meet a stranger when it comes to dogs and cats. Your home would be my home away from home. Im 54 years old with a 10 year old son. I enjoy teaching him about how wonderful each animal can be. I personally believe if you teach a child to love animals they will grow up to be wonderful people. I do not have a big home but it is ful of love. We treat all animals like they are part of our family. I can not wait to meet you and your family (pets).. This job is a test to see if i can make an income big enough to stay home with my son. . God Bless each and everyone of you.
About: I grew up in a farm when I was little. I would feed the cows and the chickens in the morning. At the age of 7 I had bunnies and would take care of them. At the age of 8 I had my own calf as my pet her mother died so I fed her milk in the mornings. At the age of 9 I moved in with my dad and I started my dog loving journey. My love of dogs started with our first rescue her name was Nena. She was very playful and such a wonderful dog, that made me want to dogsit. I started dog siting at 12 and my passion for animals only grew stronger. I just now started my dog siting business again. I am currently in college for nursing. My free time is Friday through Sunday. I want to make sure all my attention is guided toward taking care of your dog which is why I dog sit Friday-Sunday. Your pets are normally kept in my room so that way my full attention is in them. I feed them according to their plan. From the time I wake up they will be taken outside every 2 hours to do their business. I also play with them if you bring toys. They have to bring their bed,food,food and water bowl. Toys are optional.
About: I am a 27 year old husband and father of 2 boys. I am a veterinary nurse who works with dogs and cats everyday. I love what I do and consider myself lucky to be able to make a living working with animals. I know that most owners feel the same way as i do about their dogs/cats when they have to leave them in others hands. Owners are going to worry when they are away and it is up to the person responsible for their pet to make them feel at ease. When your pet is with me you can know that they are in good hands and that I will do everything I can to make them feel safe. I know all dogs are different and some are more frightened when their owners are away. Some dogs need more affection than others while some just want you to throw them the ball. I take pride in making them feel safe and as if they were with their best friend. I promise you i will keep your pet safe and sound. Even more than that i promise you that them and I will have fun! Thank you. I work Monday through Friday with Thursdays off. I can always come by in the mornings, on lunch, and afternoon and nights. I can be as flexible as needed. I will always keep an eye on the pet and make sure they are seen as if their own human was there. I take pride that I have worked in the vet field for over a decade and pretty much grew up in it
About: I’ve owned some kind of dog or cat all my life. From 150lbs to 20lbs, then down to cat sizes! We currently have a 15 year old Great Pyrenees/Border Collie mix. I am a stay at home mom of a 2 year old, I am available regularly and on the go. Some notice is great but can usually make myself available asap! We have 5 acres in the country and a decent sized fenced area for dogs. Sadie loves getting her freedom of being outdoors while also being safe. They are also taken on walks regularly and I have experience with dogs who don’t get along with cats so it’s always a priority to make sure your pet is safe.
About: My résumé includes dogs, cats, muddy boots, mystery noises in barns, and convincing animals that the thing they absolutely do not want to do is actually a great idea. I've learned that patience, consistency, and a pocket full of treats or a favorite toy solve most problems. Animals have always been a huge part of my world. On any given day, I might be caring for horses, spending time with my dogs and cats, or helping a nervous animal feel comfortable in a new situation. I understand that every pet is different. Some want a long walk and a game of fetch. Some want a quiet companion who respects their space. Some have very strong opinions about breakfast arriving precisely on time. I have experience caring for animals of all ages, from energetic youngsters to seniors who need a slower pace and a little extra patience. I'm comfortable with large dogs, multi-pet households, and pets with established routines that need to be followed carefully. Friends often describe me as observant and dependable. I pay attention to details, communicate clearly, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal's personality. Whether your pet is an adventure buddy, a professional napper, or a lovable troublemaker, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you're away. As a lifelong animal owner, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I will treat them with the same attention and respect I give my own. I currently have flexible availability most days of the week and can often accommodate pet care requests around my existing animal care responsibilities. Caring for animals is already a part of my daily routine, so I understand the importance of consistency, communication, and showing up when expected. Beginning in August, my availability will shift as I start graduate school, and I will primarily be available on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. I believe in being upfront about scheduling and only accepting bookings that I can fully commit to, so you can count on reliable care and clear communication. Every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to follow it as closely as possible. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets have fresh water, meals (if needed), potty breaks, exercise, and attention tailored to their personality. Some pets want to play, some want belly rubs, and some prefer a quiet companion who respects their space. For walks, I focus on safety, consistency, and making sure your dog gets both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I pay attention to weather conditions, energy levels, and each dog's comfort and confidence. I also keep an eye on the little things. As someone who has cared for animals for many years, I know that changes in appetite, energy, mobility, or behavior can be important. If I notice something unusual, I will communicate it promptly. In a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the household itself. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable and cared for while you're away, and for you to come home to a happy pet and a home just as you left it.

“I completely trust Michelle with Charlotte and Dixie when we go on vacation. She communicates throughout their stay with messages, photos, and videos. We prefer knowing they join her family in her home instead of being in a crate at a kennel. I can tell they love going to “Camp Michelle” because their tails start wagging when we pull into her driveway. Having Michelle as our preferred Rover host makes planning and enjoying vacations so much easier. Thank you, Michelle!”

She loved on our fur baby just how she is loved on here at home! Megan will definitely be our forever go to person whenever we are in need! We appreciate you so much!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Chad and Katy were absolutely amazing with our two dogs! We felt completely comfortable leaving them in their care, and they went above and beyond to make sure our pups were happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. They kept us informed the entire time, sent us updates, and even gave us printed pictures of our dogs to put on our fridge, which was such a thoughtful and personal touch! You can tell they genuinely love animals and treat them like their own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such good hands while we were away. We came home to two happy pups! 🐶❤️ We will definitely be using Chad and Katy again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring, and dependable people to watch their pets. Thank you both for taking such great care of them!”

“Bingo had another great experience with Charlene. She is kind and reliable. Her house is definitely a hub for pup activity as she hosts multiple dogs at once. This is perfect for social dogs who enjoy canine and human company alike. She took good care of Bingo and we're grateful for her help.”
“Maggie so enjoyed her visit with Christina! Maggie has been an indoor city girl in Florida her entire life. This was her first time having the run of a yard. Christina’s yard is huge with lots of trees and things to climb on/through. Her Boxer Bandit and Maggie became buddies right away. Christina was the perfect hostess. Maggie’s 3-day stay could not have been better. I highly recommend her and Maggie will definitely visit again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
