“Jaclyn has sat for me for several years and I wouldn’t think of looking elsewhere for someone to take care of my babies. She is caring, loving, responsible, and reliable. I love her and her family and know we can go on vacation without worrying about our babies!”
“Where do I begin? Kashawna was outstanding with my babies. I think she spoiled them even more(if possible)😂 she took them on walks mixed their food kelp them on their feeding schedule and loved on them. I also received plenty pics which made it easy for me to relax and enjoy my vacation. Will definitely use her again!”
“Heather was extremely communicative and quick to respond to all communications. I visit the area once each fall from outside the state. I am glad to know of someone who will treat my pups well and be extremely professional. I could not be happier with my decision to trust my best friend with Heather.”
“Megan is awesome. Great communication & moose loved playing and running in their yard. My first time leaving him with anyone and I felt assured he was in great hands. Definitely recommend”
“Anne did a great job watching my dog Allie. In fact, I forgot to give her medicine for Allie, and she took the time to run to the pharmacy to get it. I will definitely use her again.”
“I'm afraid to say how wonderful Jen and her family are with our dog so we can keep booking with her! Our dog Holly is on vacation when she stays there and is treated like a queen 👑. Can't say enough great things about booking with Jen.”
“Chloe and her husband were super amazing. Great communication and provided photos daily without having to ask. I know my pup enjoyed her time there as she came home crashed on the couch the rest of the day. Guessing she did a lot of running and playing. Thanks Chloe!”
“Tara accommodated us with a last minute reservation. She kept us updated about Maggie’s stay by sending us pictures. Maggie loves being with Tara and we feel confident that she is given the best care!”
“Our doggie had a great time with Cristina and her family as always. Always lots of pictures and action filled days with walks and play time with Cristina’s grandsons. Thank you again!! We will see you in the near future.”
“Many pictures, friendliest sitters we have worked with. Our dogs sometimes get anxious and don't eat when we leave them, but Jared and his wife always get them to eat and make them feel at home. So happy we found them!”
“Andrea was awesome, she kept our Yorkie (Thumper) for 8 days while we took a vacation. She showed him love, she's so sweet, she took great care of him. We highly recommend her, She kept us updated on how he was doing, she sent us videos and pictures.”
“Thank you for having Snoopy. He was pretty tired from playing when we got home! Communication and availability were 5 stars ⭐️ We’ll see you again. Thank you!”
“Garrett was amazing with my two dogs! We needed a sitter at the last minute and he was very flexible with us allowing us to schedule a quick meet and greet before the booking. It’s worth mentioning that one of my dogs can be a handful at times but Garrett was so patient with him. The communication was frequent all week long (including sending pictures). My dogs got along well with his sweet dog as well. We definitely hope to use his services again!”
“Chino was well taken care of while I was away. Chino is shy and when I picked her up she did not seem shy at all with them, especially with Shannon's lovely daughter. I would recommend her and she also has a privacy fence surrounding her backyard, which put me at ease also.I would definitely ask for her services again!”
“Madi and her family were so welcoming and loving to my girls. They provided peace of mind and were accommodating to our extra needs due to being stuck out of town longer than anticipated. She sent multiple daily updates with photos showing me they were in the best of care. My girls experienced so many cuddles, walks, and a lot of playtime…they may have even been reluctant to leave Madi’s home! The communication was beyond excellent and I for sure trust her with my dogs again! 🐾🩷💕”

About: While I am primarily a dog owner, I am comfortable feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, administering basic care, and spending time with cats to ensure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I respect their individual comfort levels—whether they enjoy playtime and attention or prefer a quieter visit. My goal is to provide reliable care, maintain their routine, and give owners peace of mind through updates and photos during each visit.
“Single handedly made me a repeat user here on Rover. Super flexible, communicates consistently, and great with care. Our cats normally don’t leave the bedroom with new people but loved spending time with her. 10/10”

“Isabella was a terrific choice to care for our five cats. We appreciated her efforts to ensure our more shy, older cats were fed, while our younger cats devoured their dinner. She definitely met all of our cat sitting needs while we were away from home. We would gladly have Isabella return.”
About: Cats have always held a special place in my heart. My love for them began when I was a child and had my first pet cat. Today, I’m actively involved in helping manage the feral cat population in my area through care and support. My own cat was once feral, and with patience, love, and trust, I was able to socialize and train them into a wonderful companion. This experience has given me a deep understanding of feline behavior and the unique care that cats need.

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.

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.

“Chloe has a special hand with pets that few others have. She cared deeply for my timid kitty on her first daycare visit away from home. I can tell my sweet Mirabelle was taken good care of. If you’re uncertain about who to choose on Rover, look no further than this wonderful young woman! Her home was the perfect environment for my cat, both clean and cozy. She was quick to respond to my inquiries and texts, with a joy I could literally feel coming from her kind heart. Bless you Chloe”

About: I've always liked to rescue animals and care for them from a young age. So lots of my family and friends would bring animals to me or trust me to petsit for them. I've not only cared for dogs and cats, but also turtles, toads, and a few birds. I'm currently solely attending classes so I have plenty of availability for your pets to always feel well cared for during their stay with me! I have a fenced patio, luckily there are a few pet friendly parks that surround me. I follow any instructions given for your pet care to a T since no one knows your pet like you do. I have a housemate, but she is just as loving to any animal brought in.
“Absolutely amazing job! I will definitely be using her the next time I'm in need of this service. As someone with an ESA pet, his will being is important to me and she made the day worry free.”
“Beaux LOVES Cam. She’s very good with him. From day one she has been very understanding, and made us feel comfortable leaving Beaux with her. She’s filled in last minute when we needed care. Cam also sends lot of pictures and updates. We definitely will keep booking with her!!”
About: Hi! i did private boarding for 14 years but only want to keep 1 or 2 from same family at a time since I'm retired. Guests are only crated when I am away from home. Recently retired and home 24/7. I have a super flexible schedule to allow for plenty of play time and walks around my farm. Must be cat friendly as I also work with cat rescue organizations and have 2 inside cats of my own. I have a super large, fenced yard with two 7 year old Border Collies who get along with everyone and everything. In addition, I have a large screened porch for an additional space. I love walks and can take yours, too, for no additional charge.
About: Ever since I can recall, I've had a deep passion for looking after animals. Growing up on a farm surrounded by cows, piglets, chickens, and ducks, caring for them became second nature to me. In addition, I fondly remember our beloved catahoula dogs who were a cherished part of my childhood. I have experience with giving insulin to animals, pills, and liquid medications. It's always a delight to extend love and care to someone else's furry companions, and I look forward to the opportunity to do so for your beloved pets. Currently, I work full time in finance remotely, which allows me to provide around-the-clock care for your pets. I have flexible breaks and lunch hours, providing ample opportunities to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. Let me know your pets needs! Where they like to sleep, their favorite toy. Any medications they may need or anything I need to know.

About: Hi! My name is Morgan, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, basic care, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to following your pet’s routine so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Pet care is naturally set into my daily and weekly routine. I schedule my day around feeding times, walks, play time, and check-ins to ensure every pet gets consistent care. Mornings and evenings are dedicated to exercise, enrichment, and cuddles, while afternoons include potty breaks, supervision, and rest time. My schedule is flexible and intentionally designed so I can give every animal the attention, and time they deserve.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of personal attention and care I give to each pet. I take time to learn their routine, quirks and comfort needs so they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I have experience with both tiny puppies and kittens feeding bottles.

About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals, beginning with early exposure to veterinary clinics where I spent time shadowing and learning animal handling and care from a young age. This foundation grew into professional veterinary technician experience, where I worked with dogs and cats of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs, including senior pets, puppies, and animals requiring daily medications or specialized care. In addition to my veterinary background, I volunteered with a service dog organization where I raised and trained future guide dogs. This experience strengthened my skills in leash training, socialization, crate training, and positive reinforcement methods while working with high-expectation working dogs in real-world environments. I also actively continue dog training as a personal passion and have earned three AKC Trick Dog titles with my own dog. Because of this, I’m very comfortable working with energetic dogs, reinforcing basic obedience, and providing structured enrichment during walks and visits. I currently share my home with two dogs and a cat, so I understand day-to-day pet care, multi-pet dynamics, and the importance of consistency and routine. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is always to provide safe, reliable, and attentive care whether that means a structured walk, a drop-in visit, medication administration, or simply making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I structure my day around consistency and flexibility. I am able to accommodate morning, midday, and afternoon visits, as well as regular walking schedules and drop-in care throughout the week. Because I have a flexible schedule, I can prioritize pet care visits and ensure pets receive attention, exercise, feeding, and companionship on time. I’m used to building my day around routines, whether that’s scheduled walks, feeding times, or medication needs. I value clear communication and reliability, and I make it a priority to be punctual and consistent with every visit so pets feel comfortable and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and secure while their owners are away. I follow all instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific care needs. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets receive attention, fresh water, feeding if needed, potty breaks, playtime, and any required medication. I also take time to provide companionship and help pets feel calm and comfortable before leaving. For dog walking, I focus on safe, structured walks that match the dog’s energy level and needs. I pay close attention to leash manners, surroundings, and each dog’s comfort level to ensure a positive experience. I always treat each home with respect, keep things clean and organized, and provide updates so owners feel informed and confident while they are away.
