“Rodeliza is so kind and was willing to book us on shorter notice than usual! She always takes great care of our pups and we love sending them to her house. Our youngest one kept trying to run back in to stay with her, too!”
“We had a meet and greet with Layne prior to boarding Maxie at her place. They have a big fenced yard which is a plus. Layne took good care of Maxie even when she didn’t have the appetite (maybe she missed us that much). It’s nice to have a caring sitter that knows how to handle your dog when you’re not there for them. Thanks Layne for the TLC!”
“Great service and communication. Did everything we asked and then some. Mackenzie sends updates throughout the booking to let how your little one is doing. Definitely will consider her if we do another dog boarding”
“Janet did an awesome job caring for my 9 year old beagle for almost three weeks while I traveled. She sent me updates with pictures throughout the time period. She took her to grooming and dealt with giving her meds and her special needs. I would highly recommend her to others in need of a pet sitter.”
About: I have always loved animals and understand the importance of compassion, responsibility and trust when caring for pets. I volunteered for 10 years fostering lost and or abandoned pets. Fostering gave me valuable experience of understanding routines, medication instructions, providing companionship and attention to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I take pride in being responsible and trustworthy. Pets are safe, cared for and treated like family. Available full time! Retired, no children. Neighborhood park within walking distance. Feeding schedules and medication instructions followed. Photos of your pet provided during your absence. Fenced yard. Child free home. Crate provided if needed. Retired, now spending the next chapter of my life doing something I truly enjoy and feel passionate about-caring for animals.
“I just love how easy it is to contact Dana for any questions that I may have or to check up on Max. But what i really appreciate is the patience for keeping him until I can find a home. Thank you so much. I will recommend you to any and everybody.”
“Amy and her lovely family took Dude, my 1 yo male Lab, for a week. They assimilated him into their pack from day one and made him happy. She shared updates and pictures at least once a day. He’s a handful but they took it all in stride and with aplomb. I’ll def use them again for any of my dog sitting needs!!”
“Davis was the most attentive sitter we’ve ever had! Our dog was clearly so so cared for and loved and we got so many adorable pictures. She’s normally really anxious, but I could tell she was so happy the whole time!! Would leave her with him any time.”
“10/10 sitter, you can tell she loves your dogs like they are her own. Great communication during the dogs boarding, will defiantly rebook for future events”
“Rebecca & Stephen went above and beyond to take care of our pup. I was actually getting married this past weekend and it was such a piece of mind to know that our pup was in the best hands. Thank you Rebecca & Stephen!”
“All I can say is “AWESOME”. Madeline took great care of my 2 high maintenance pups for 5 nights. This is my first experience using a sitter and she set the standard high.”
“Nicole was absolutely wonderful with Atlas! She was incredibly caring and attentive to his needs, and I loved that she sent me updates throughout his stay. It made such a difference being able to see him happy and settled, giving me 100% confident that he was in great hands and being well taken care of the entire time! 🤍 Would recommend and book again.”
“Kingston really enjoyed his time with Rashad. Rashad was very flexible and he kept me up to date wit Kingston's happiness. I'll definitely let Rashad are for Kingston in the future. Bill”
“Pleased to find a repeat sitter for my Ellie girl! I will use every time they are available. Highly recommended for your fav 4 legged friends! She's happy to go & play w their Oreo.”
“Melissa was great! She took great care of my Jupiter and gave him all of his necessary medications. Melissa sent plenty of pictures and videos and was great in communication. Would definitely recommend her and will be using her again!”
“Mary was wonderful! She checked in with me often, sent updates, and made sure my dog was happy and comfortable the whole time. It gave me such peace of mind knowing my pup was in good hands. Very kind, reliable, and caring—I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”

“Robert was amazing. He's very sweet and attentive and JuJu loved him. When we returned everything was fine. Robert video chatted with us, sent video, and pics every day we were away. He let himself into our home and we had 0 issues! I would definitely book with Robert again and again!”
About: Hey, I’m Caroline!😊 I have had pets all of my life including dogs(small&large), cats, and even guinea pigs! I would love to help care for your sweet babies whenever the time comes🩷 I currently work a part-time job at a nutrition shop! I usually work during the day, so no biggie if you need a night sitter! I am comfortable doing anything asked in your home! Whether it’s kenneling up or free roaming. I can walk them if you don’t have a fence or let them play in the yard!
About: I have been dog sitting since i was 15. whether it was my friends, neighbors, family, i have dog sat for long or short periods of time. sometimes it has just been feeding and letting them out for a quick minute, a full weekend or week, or even 3 full months. i have also watched anywhere from 1-6 dogs at a time. i am very experienced and have had animals since i was born, so i’ve grown up around them and get along with them very well. i am a huge animal lover, so i make sure to give them lots of love and attention, especially because i know they are already in distress with their owner being gone. please feel free to reach out to me, and i have multiple references as well!! i do have kind of a chaotic schedule at the moment. however, i am an early riser so i would have plenty of time to get them the attention they need that morning (if needed) and would make sure i can attend to them in a timely manner! if i am needed to stay the night, that is totally fine with me. the dogs can sleep wherever you prefer or what they are used to, even with me, so that they are comfortable. i care for them based off of what you tell me they are used to, or how you would like, and make that work with my schedule. even if i am not needed to stay the night, i still can stay over there for a few hours to make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention.
About: I absolutely love animals of all kind! I have taken care of/ owned pets my entire life including dogs, cats, turtles, lizards, and fish! I have been dog-sitting for other families for about a year prior to Rover! I have strong passion for taking care of animals! I am a college student at U of M and I currently only work part-time! I have tons of open availability to be there for your pets! When taking care of pets, I make sure they are well fed, comfortable, and loved! My priority is to make sure your babies feel respected in their space!
About: I've had cats for 20+ years of my life. I've worked with rescues to foster kittens and help find them new homes as well as supported special needs cats. Rest assured your fluffy feline friend will get all the love and attention they require while you are gone, whether it's just short drop-ins or I need to stay for a little while and keep them company. At this time I can not board cats in my home.
“Phoenix was amazing! He was right on time everyday, extremely patient with my wild bunch (I have 3 big dogs). My babies aren’t used to being with out me so we had a couple of accidents..Phoenix responded like a champ when I feel like some people would have said that wasn’t what they were getting paid for. I think my dogs might prefer him over me at this point because he gave lots of treats. Would definitely use again! Thanks Phoenix!”
About: I don’t just “watch cats”— I understand them. From spicy, hiss-first personalities to velcro lap cats, I’ve worked with all types through years of rescue and pet sitting. I know how to read their cues, respect their boundaries, and earn their trust (on their terms). I’m experienced with multi-cat homes, senior care, and giving medications when needed. I’ve handled shy cats, overstimulated cats, and the ones who act tough but secretly just need patience and consistency. Whether your cat wants playtime, quiet companionship, or to pretend I don’t exist (rude, but respected), I’ll meet them where they are and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
About: I have worked with cats for nearly 10 years. I worked at a rescue and an animal hospital with cats. I clean ears , clip nails if they allow daily wipe downs if needed and if tolerated bathing as well. I currently own a female gray tabby and a torti Maine coon mix. I love all cars big and small. Our Maine coon is almost a whopping 20 lbs!
“Dana was absolutely amazing with our fur baby. This was our first time using Rover or leaving him with anyone other than trusted family so we were a little nervous. When we arrived she greeted us and was so welcoming and sweet. He doesn’t travel well, he gets nervous so he got a little sick before arriving and she was patient and kind about it all, even allowing us to use her bathroom to clean him up. It made my husband and feel better about leaving him, we had a good feeling he was in good hands. Dana was involved and she sent pictures/videos of our baby often. She even texted us daily checking in and he really seemed to enjoy his time there and it was like his own vacation. She was incredibly kind and precious with him, we will definitely keep her in mind for our next trip. If you’re looking for someone trusting, we highly recommend. My husband and I were very pleased.”
About: I am an experienced veterinary technician with a passion for animals. I’ve never met a creature I didn’t like! ❤️ I am comfortable with pets of all sizes and breeds and am even doggy cpr certified.

I also offer home visits for special needs patients that may need medications or fluids administered. I always have pet owners take the lead. There is no such thing as “high maintenance” and am happy to oblige any pet parent requests Taking care of animals is part of my daily routine at home and at work and I enjoy every single minute of it. There is no such thing as a needy pet or pet parent. I treat all pets with patience and compassion. I understand that all pets are unique in how they communicate with us and am always willing to take the extra time to make sure they’re comfortable.

“Highly recommend. This is the first time I've had to leave my dog and I'm so thankful I found Dana. She is the sweetest and treated my dog as if he were her own. Will definitely use her again!”
About: I have always been an animal lover and had pets all my life. I have rescued and fostered many dogs and have also been a foster fail a few times because I became so attached. I am down to one pup now named Charlie. He is my pride and joy and he is spoiled rotten. I have volunteered at the Humane Society , been a pet sitter for many of my friends in the past. So I decided why not do it as a job and then I can be around them a lot more. So that's what I am doing. I have lots of references that will vouch that I indeed do love animals. I am retired since 2009 and do work a very part-time job. So I can give your fur babies all the attention they require and need. I can care for pets in my home as long as they would get along with my dog, Charlie. There would have to be an initial meeting first to determine that.
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was an infant, my passion and love for them is indescribable! 1000% treated as mine own, they are loved and played with countless times, throughout the day!

I have a large fenced back yard, as well as 2 large hand built crates (if needed). I am also a photographer and LOVE capturing the play times!
“Kee is an absolute blessing for our girl, Bailee. She was quick to respond, set up a meet and greet with her pups, and accommodated to my crazy schedule as I needed. Throughout the day she sends me photos of her playing, napping, and doing what dogs do that ultimately gives me peace of mind while I work. We have truly found a lifelong friend in her and both Bailee and I are beyond grateful ?”

These dogs have also never met a stranger, and our home is an overall very welcoming environment to all creatures (I even have a pet spider!).

About: I have a long history of various types of pet care ranging from small to large as well as exotics, and I'm more than willing to take on any special cases. I spent my time in high school taking small animal care courses and being involved in FFA, where I dealt with a vast array of creatures. I have also worked at animal shelters and animal hospitals, so I am used to handling all kinds of energies, sizes, and medical histories. I guarantee I have seen it all, and am prepared to deal with any situation as it comes my way. My coworkers and friends have often referred to me as the pet whisper because of this. I have owned or currently own dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, rabbits, bearded dragons, sheep, and horses/ponies. However, my knowledge of care spreads far beyond just these. Currently, I have one bearded dragon, one cat, and three dogs actively living in the house.

About: Hi, I’m Kristen (I go by my middle name, Lauren)! I’ve been around animals before I started walking. I contribute my love of animals to my mother, who couldn’t hurt a fly. I’ve had my own animals since I was 20 years old. I work alongside my local animal shelter and have fostered for them for the last 5 years. I am also on the board of a nonprofit (Friends of the Tipton County Animal Shelter) that helps animals in our community. I have experience with dogs of all ages and most breeds. I also had a Catahoula that was born deaf and partially blind, so I have experience with dogs with disabilities as well. Big personalities? High energy? Zero manners? I’ve got it. I’ve worked with everything from zoomie-fueled chaos gremlins to sweet senior couch potatoes— and I know how to match their energy while still keeping things safe and structured. I’m comfortable with multi-dog households, strong pullers, feeding routines, crating, and basic meds. I don’t get overwhelmed easily, and I’m big on reading body language and keeping situations under control (so nobody makes bad life choices 👀). Whether your dog needs a good walk, a play session to burn off that extra, or just someone to hang with, I’ve got them covered. Expect happy, tired dogs and lots of tail wags when you get home. I currently work full time but have a flexible schedule. We can make a plan that encompasses your pet’s needs. I can’t wait to chat with you! I have a fenced in, large, backyard. I live in a friendly neighborhood, where I know all of our neighbors. I have 1 very friendly dog and 2 cats, all of which are extremely dog friendly and are used to having foster dogs & pet sitting clients come in and out. I have the space to contain my cats if needed. For safety purposes, I do require dogs to be crated when I’m not home and overnight.
About: I’ve worked in a dog boarding place for 3 years. The dogs love me! Their is this one dog who shy but when I come around he opens up, it’s such a warm feeling. My family relies on me to watch their animals. They have a cat who is diabetic so they heavily rely on me to give him his shot at the correct times. I have grown up with animals my whole life. I’ll be working part time while in college. So this works perfectly. I want this to be my only job while in school so therefore I can spend more time playing and loving on your fur babies. I can check on dogs before and after school. Usually I’ll have class 2 days out of the week. I have 3 dogs of my own so you can put all your trust into me. I am a BIG animal lover. I can do what the owner wants me to do to make sure the dog feels safe and more comfortable. As long as it’s reasonable! I will play fetch with your dogs so by the time I leave they’ll be passed out. I’ll love on them and even send as many pictures as the owner would want to make the owner feel ever more comfortable.
About: I have over 20 years of experience with both cats, dogs, goats and chickens. I am a proud supporter of rescue animals of all breeds and backgrounds and love spending time with my animals every day. At this time I can do drop-in visits or daily interaction activities like playtime or walks. I am unable to provide any boarding at my home. I have a hard time leaving my fluffy friends behind so rest assured yours will get loads of love and attention while you are away. I work remotely so I have a flexible schedule to make sure everyone gets the love and attention that they need. A typical interaction with any animal is giving them plenty of attention, tending to their food or bathroom needs and making sure they get in plenty of cuddles, play time and walks (if they're a dog). I understand special dietary needs and understand that sometimes medications need to be given At this time I am unable to provide any boarding at my home. When I am visiting your home and animals I respect your space and their territory. They need to feel comfortable with me interacting and being around them. My goal is to leave your house as you left it so you don't have to stress about any unnecessary messes or surprises.
About: I worked for a vet when I was younger, and have also cared for friends and family pets as well. I am an animal lover! I am not working and have a flexible schedule for most days. Whether it's walking, sitting with, or just loving your pet, I'm always there. I can walk, let them out to play, or just keep them company. I can follow whatever schedule is needed to keep your pet happy.
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was an infant, my passion and love for them is indescribable! 1000% treated as mine own, they are loved and played with countless times, throughout the day! I am currently a SAHM and have 3, 4-legged babes of my own. I, as well as my fur babies enjoy the company of other fur babes!! I have a large fenced back yard, as well as 2 large hand built crates (if needed). I am also a photographer and LOVE capturing the play times!
About: I am an experienced veterinary technician with a passion for animals. I’ve never met a creature I didn’t like! ❤️ I am comfortable with pets of all sizes and breeds and am even doggy cpr certified. I always treat other people’s animals like my own, so you can rest assured that your fur babies are in good hands! My schedule is fairly flexible over weekends and holidays. I also offer home visits for special needs patients that may need medications or fluids administered. I always have pet owners take the lead. There is no such thing as “high maintenance” and am happy to oblige any pet parent requests Taking care of animals is part of my daily routine at home and at work and I enjoy every single minute of it. There is no such thing as a needy pet or pet parent. I treat all pets with patience and compassion. I understand that all pets are unique in how they communicate with us and am always willing to take the extra time to make sure they’re comfortable.
About: I absolutely love dogs. I have a 6 year old Pembroke Welsh Corgi named Louie Vuitton who is playful and is my absolute best friend. My ultimate goal is to take care of your pup like they are my very own. Play dates, treats, and more! I look forward to making many lifelong "pupships"in the future! I have a love for dogs like no other. I also enjoy training dogs. I have experience training dogs to sit, stay, shake, fetch, lay down, and even roll over! Your pup will be in perfect hands if you choose me to love them! Thank you so much for the opportunity to meet and love your pup! Reviews after each booking are greatly appreciated! This is something that I enjoy doing so your pup will have my undivided attention the entire time he/she is with me. My Corgi is spoiled rotten and I plan to treat yours like my very own during its time with me. I do not have a fenced yard, but do have a dog park therefore there will be numerous opportunities for your pups to play outside and run around, and I have many toys that they can play with inside as well! If your pet has favorite activities please let me know and I’m happy to accommodate those.
About: I worked at an animal hospital for almost 2 yrs.I took care of cats dogs and of course puppies! Helped administer medications and shots when needed bathing and grooming including ear cleaning and nail trims. After that I worked for an animal rescue taking care of dogs puppies and cats. I worked in the vet/rescue for 3 years. I also helped transport dogs puppies and cats to different rescues all across the United States! Once they were dropped off at their new location they got to be adopted into their forever home! While working with the rescue I helped train the animals and teach them tricks and other things to make sure they were ready to be adopted I have experience in giving medications and special needs dogs as well! I also have experience in taking care of senior dogs and cats and I’ve even helped potty train the ones that needed it and helped them understand when to tell their person when they have to go I’ve trained dogs on leash and how to walk beside you off leash and not run away. Dogs and cats are my spirit animals 🥰 I work full-time I still have plenty of time to take your babies on long walks, playing ball, going to the park to play if permitted. I even enjoy long cuddles and giving tummy rubs🥰 my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m a dog mom myself I own 3. I own 2 cats as well. I have a fenced in area of my yard that will give them plenty of safe outside time. I have 2 kids in the home that love animals so your baby will have plenty of loves! I have 6 dogs of my own and they love love meeting new friends!

“Shoshana (and her family) was the perfect sitter for my senior dog. She provided plenty of updates and was amazing with keeping my dog happy while I was away. Her house setup is perfect for dogs, especially dogs that enjoy hanging out with other pups. I truly appreciate her care for Reagan while I was away and recommend her services for anyone else looking for a reliable sitter to provide loving care for their pets.”

I would highly recommend her!”
