“Kelsie does an amazing job with our two pups! My husband and I work third shift and she is beyond accommodating when it comes to drop in visits at odd times. One of our dogs has severe anxiety and was immediately at ease upon meeting Kelsie. Highly recommend ☺️”


“I don't have enough positive adjectives in my vocabulary to describe Jen! She took excellent care of my cat while I was away, took photos, kept me thoroughly updated, went above and beyond, and even gave my cat the oral medication she required. I would recommend her to anyone, and will absolutely request to have her back in the future.”


About: With over 8 years of dedicated pet care experience, I have a genuine passion for providing the best for dogs and cats alike. My journey has equipped me with the skills to understand and meet the unique needs of each pet, whether it’s through playful walks, engaging activities, or cozy cuddle sessions. I prioritize safety and well-being, ensuring that every furry friend feels loved and comfortable in my care. From energetic pups to cuddly kittens, I’m committed to creating a nurturing environment that allows pets to thrive and their owners to have peace of mind. I am currently working full-time, so my weekly schedule will have availability mornings from 7 to 10 am and afternoons/ evenings from 5:30 to 9 pm. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their routine. I ensure that feeding schedules are followed, provide playtime tailored to their preferences, and keep their environment clean and comfortable. I also stay attentive to their behavior and needs, offering plenty of love and attention to help them feel at ease. Communication with the pet owner is key, so I provide updates and photos to keep them informed and connected while they’re away.

About: Growing up on a farm, I’ve spent my entire life caring for a diverse range of animals, from livestock to beloved dogs, cats, birds and reptiles. This unique hands-on experience has given me an unparalleled understanding of animal behavior, health, and well-being that goes far beyond typical pet care. I offer a level of insight and compassionate care that truly sets me apart, ensuring your pet receives the most attentive and knowledgeable support possible. I’m currently working a mid day shift Monday-Friday. This will give me time in the morning to walk and care for your pets then again later in the afternoon and evenings. I will also be available most weekends! When you entrust your beloved pet to me , you’re choosing a caregiver committed to their safety, happiness, and well-being. I provide walks and in-home care with the utmost responsibility and trustworthiness, ensuring secure outings and attentive supervision. Your pets routine and comfort are paramount, and I always prioritize their needs in a safe and loving environment. You can have complete peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in dedicated and reliable hands.

“She is the absolute best you could ever ask for !! Treated our doggos as if they were her own and sent lots of videos and pictures :) 10/10 would definitely book with her again !!!”


About: I grew up with a high-energy border collie, which taught me patience, consistency, and how to handle smart dogs! Since college, I’ve occasionally walked and sat for friends’ pets, especially during med school. I’m attentive, reliable, and always make sure pets feel safe and cared for. I’m currently between jobs and have a very flexible schedule. I’m happy to work with you to accommodate your pet’s specific needs, be it morning walks, house sitting, or anything in between. I offer pet care in your home to help your pet stay comfortable in their familiar space. I respect your home and routines, and I always prioritize your pet’s safety and well-being. I’m calm and detail oriented, whether it’s medications, feedings, or just giving them love and attention.

“Elyse went above and beyond. She had challenges with Callie and had to give her medication and shots twice a day and clean up after her as she had issues with her litter box as well. Unfortunately Callie became ill while I was away and Elyse promptly called my vet and took Callie into the office. She kept me updated every day on her visits with my two cats with pictures. I would recommend Elyse to anyone.”


About: ⸻ What sets me apart from other sitters is my calm, intuitive approach to animal care—think “Mary Poppins meets animal whisperer.” I don’t just watch pets; I create a nurturing, structured environment where they feel safe, loved, and engaged. I have experience with a wide range of animals, from playful puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and gentle handling. I’m comfortable with administering medication, managing special diets, and adapting routines to meet each pet’s physical and emotional needs. For puppies, I focus on positive reinforcement, helping with basic training, crate comfort, and establishing good habits early on. For senior pets, I provide thoughtful care—whether that’s supporting mobility, sticking to precise medication schedules, or simply offering quiet companionship. Beyond the basics, I bring a warm energy, attention to detail, and a genuine love for animals that always shines through. My goal is for both pets and their humans to feel completely at ease—like they’ve found a sitter who’s not just capable, but truly cares. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine—it’s not something I squeeze in; it’s something I prioritize. Whether I’m walking dogs, administering medication, or simply spending quiet time with a senior pet, I structure my schedule to ensure each animal gets consistent, focused attention. I plan my days around the needs of the pets in my care, from early morning potty breaks to evening feedings and bedtime routines. I also build in time for play, enrichment, and cuddles—because emotional wellbeing is just as important as physical care. If I’m caring for multiple pets or have bookings throughout the week, I stay organized with detailed notes, reminders, and plenty of communication with owners. For me, caring for animals isn’t a job I clock in and out of—it’s a rhythm I genuinely enjoy being part of. Pet care for clients home • Feeding & Fresh Water: Administer meals according to the pet’s schedule and dietary needs. • Daily Exercise & Play: Walks, fetch, playtime, or enrichment activities based on the pet’s energy level. • Routine Maintenance: Cleaning litter boxes, picking up waste, and ensuring the area is tidy. • Medication Administration: If required, administer medications or supplements as instructed. • Home Care: Bringing in mail, watering plants, adjusting lights, and maintaining a lived-in appearance. • Communication: Sending daily updates, photos, or videos to the client.

About: I have over 10 years of personal and professional animal caregiving skills. Exotic pets are welcomed and I have some of my own! I love caring for animals and I’m happy to be responsible for any/all animal care needs. I work part time as a Nanny on Thursdays and Fridays. I have a very flexible schedule and I have a reliable SUV! I have animals of my own who are on set schedules. I can fit in dog walking and check ins on any weekday while balancing my own home/care. I interact and play with any animal that I meet! I love meeting new friends and I’m happy to feed and walk multiple times a week/day if needed.

About: I love all cats and dogs, big and small. I’ve been around pets since I was young and recently adopted a cat of my own! Would love to care for your pets and make sure they’re in good hands! I currently work part time so I have plenty of time to watch your furry friends. Would prefer advance notice to make sure it is a good fit and everything works out! I will try my best to work around your schedule. I can watch your pups in your home preferred as I live in an apartment that doesn’t allow dogs. I can watch cats in my home depending, would love to chat to hear more!

About: I have always been surrounded by pets; enjoy giving plenty of attention; and have cared for their well-being (bathing, administering medications, monitoring recuperations after illness/surgery). I work full-time during the school year (August 20 - June 15; leave home at 7:30 a.m. and I am home by 4:30 p.m.) and have my evenings and weekends free. During the summer I am home and available during the daytime as well. I am available for check-ins, walks, and stays. Your companion would be cared for by keeping to his/her routine/schedule, keeping them safe, following any additional instructions, and giving them lots of attention and playtime.

About: Thanks for stopping by my profile. I’m a dog-loving gal with a Pomchi named Sadie, who’s my little bundle of energy. I played college softball, so staying active is in my blood—I love getting outside for walks, playtime, and all things dog-related! I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, from tiny pups to big, playful companions. I’m back on Rover to keep active and get my steps in before my wedding, so I’m excited to meet your furry friend and give them the love and attention they deserve! I used to Rover for years after college, but after a few moves I am settled down and ready to start back up again. I believe in keeping dogs’ routines as consistent as possible, as it helps them feel secure and happy. Whether it's feeding times, walks, or playtime, I always make sure to follow their usual schedule so they stay comfortable and relaxed. I understand that every dog has unique needs and preferences, so I’m flexible and adapt to what works best for them. Whether it's a special toy they love, a favorite route for walks, or just some extra cuddle time, I'm here to make sure their routine stays as close to normal as possible while you’re away. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I make sure to always keep a close eye on them, whether we’re out on a walk or just lounging at home. When outside, I ensure they’re on a secure leash or in a safe, enclosed area, and I’m always alert to any potential hazards. At home, I keep the environment safe by dog-proofing areas and making sure there’s nothing around that could be harmful. I’m committed to providing a watchful, caring eye, giving you peace of mind while you're away knowing your pup is in good hands.

About: I have had dogs and been around them my entire life. I have sat/walked/watched dogs for years. I truly enjoy spending time with the pups, taking them for walks and even rollerblading with them if they are up for it! More importantly, I want to make sure they are loved, fed, pet, brushed and happy while their owner is away. I do work a full time 8-5 job but am available for early morning walks before work as well as in the evening and am certainly available for overnight stays throughout the week and/or weekend. I am a dog lover through and through and want to ensure your dog is comfortable and cared for while away from you to ensure all parties are happy and healthy!

About: I've had a dog since I was 10, and been her primary care-taker for as long as I've had her. I've cared for animals of all kinds, and have a unique talent for training dogs of all ages. I work part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to care for your animals as needed, I am available all weekdays after 4pm, and can stay as long as requested. I have a variety of toys that I can bring if requested, and am physically active to engage your pet while remaining respectful of your home's safety. I am also willing to adapt my care to your individual pet and their activity level.
